The Skinner.

BY a skinner is understood circu-
lar piece of tin, concave on one side
and convex on the other, with hole
more or less numerous in the center,
having handle of the same material
attached, for convenience in holding
and manipulating. This is an ancient
dairy implement. 1t is old enough to
be venerable, but, like some other old
things, it is too faulty to be entitled to
much veneration or respect, where
economy is of any Importance. What
did the inventor put holes in it forp
"Why," says a dairy-maid, "to let the
milk drip away when the cream is lift
ed from it.,
Doubtless that was the reason, but
that is Just what should not be done,
for, IL the milk is liquid enough TO run
through the holes in a skinner, a part,
at least, Of the cream will be thin
enough to run through too, and oc-
casion loss. The holes imply skimming
when the milk is liquid, for, II it was
thick, they would be useless. In the
ordinary manner of setting milk in the
diaries, the top OF the mix, or tnat
which lies next to the cream, always
contains more or less cream, and should
be taken in and churned with the cream.
II, in skimming, this is allowed to run
through the skinner, it is lost,
or, at most, goes away for
pig feed. Skimming lis best
done by taking in the top Of the milk,
SO that from twenty to twenty-five per
per cent. OF the original bulk Of milk
will be churned. Where large bodies
of milk are creamed, the cream is best
separated from the milk by drawing II
out from under the cream through q
faucet, leaving the cream in the vessel,
but where the milk is TO be left in the
vessel and the cream removed, it is
much better to dip it OF than to skim it
of. As the economy Of this mode is
better appreciated, the skinner goes
out of use, being regarded only as q
source OF waste. 1t is often said that
the dairy is full Of leaks, which empty
the pockets OF the owner. The holes in

A Mad ,,-esident.

A well-known PRESIDENT of South.
ern road recently distinguished himself
in Chicago. He was bound for New
York, and when he showed his pass at
the depot gate it was promptly taken
up, the bearer being referred to the
general passenger Office for any ex-
planation he might want. Only a few
minutes till train time remained, and
he fastened into the general passenger
Office fuming with rage. "What does
this fellow outside mean by insulting
me, sir, by depriving me of my pass,
sir P" he demanded, angrily. "Does
he think / stole il, or that I've been
trying to sell it, sirP l tell you l have
been grossly insulted, and / want an
explanation. He was urged to be
calm and to state his case a little more
plainly, and whatever wrong had been
done would be righted. After he had
acquainted the agent with his name, il
was at once recognized as having graced
a pass that had been offered for sale in
scalping shop few days before.
The matter had been reported at the
Office and the gate-keeper had been in.
structed to take up pass bearing that
name. The Southern railroader then
explained that he had lost his return
pass, which some one had probably
found and tried to sell. lie was able to
identify himself without difficulty and
was then given a note to the gate
keeper for q return of the pass. In the
meantime his train had gone, and, boil

ond time in the agents Office, when he
proceeded to heap upon the head of ev.
erybody connected with the road {

tives. Having thus unburdened him
self, he pettishly tore his pass intC
fragments, and, throwing the pieces OF
the floor, savagely exclaimed "rhere

and back before I'd accept another

With that he took himself out of thu
