German Method of Preserving
Ruttpr.


| In a recent number of the Mich Zeitung.
DIR. Fleischman, Germany's highest authority
on matters pertaining to the dairy, discourses
on "Preserved Butter'-not butter preserved
by the addition of some antiseptic, but by its
own good quality, secured by extreme care in
its manufacture, and 10y careful packing in
| sealed tin cans. The phrase has been ap-
| piled in Germany and Dutch seaboard cities
| to selected butter intended for export or for
| use on shipboard IN long voyages. 1t is en-
pected that such butter, for which Denmark
has the highest reputation. will keep for two
years under any weather, when so packed.
i. has golden yellow color, much like
that of fully ripened oat straw When the
fiat of knive blade is gently pressed down
on its surface minute drops of clear brine
should appear, not in the least milky; and no
butter but only droplets OF the same clear
brine, should adhere to the back of the tryer
when drawn out; these qualities should be
exhibited when the samples of butter has
stood long enough IN a cool room at a tenn
perature of about 50 degrees Fahr. to take
this temperature to the center of the mass.
The analysis of several samples of the butter
shows that it contains an average of only
per cent of salt, per cent Being usually add
ed to the fresh butter and half of it is worked
out.
Its remarkable keeping qualities seem to
be due not to large proportion of salt. nor
yet to an unusually small proportion of the
heterogeneous matters of the milk, in which
matters the decomposition ending in rancidi-
ty is supposed to start; it keeps so well large
y of the perfectly untanted condition of this
matter when the butter is first made. II,
through carelessness in the management of
the milk or cream, or untidiness in respect
to the utensils of the dairy, the smallest
quantity of tainted heterogeneous matter is
left in the butter, the seed thus sown may
soon spoil the entire mass.
The difficulty which all lovers of fine butter
living in country towns often find in supply
ing their want seems to show that either care
lessness OF untidiness somewhere is the rule
rather than the exception in the home dairy.
1t has been found that this long keeping but
ter can be made from sour as well as from
sweet cream. Those who handle il have also
observed that summer butter, and especially
that made in late summer and early autumn
has the best keeping qualities, Much care in
the winter feeding of cows and in keeping
their stalls clean and well ventilated is re-
quired in order to get butter from stall-fed
cows in any season, which equals that from
cows that run in pasture.
