that is spread out on a butter worker,
or any suitable platform, and pressed
into thin sheets, and then folded upon
itself three or four times as the salt is
spnnkled on, will be very evenly sailed.
Butter that is ~unevenly sailed will be

possible to paddle ii over a long while
without getting the salt into every

churn before the buttermilk is drawn

FAIL PhANTING.-AsIde from the
stone-fruited kind. all the harder or
phard trees may be planted in the fall
sdvantageously. A tree set out in the
fall will start up better ordinarily than
a spring set one because the roots are
IN position at the opening of the season
to supply the tree with food at once.
The drawback to fall.settng is that in
very severe winters the trees suffer from
the wood drying out and the roots be-
coming undisturbed. To guard against
this as much as possible, early planting
should be resorted to, in the North,
October being the best month for the
work. Then some strength car be ae-
cumulated before cold weather. When
everything is in readiness for planting.
If the trees are still IN Leaf, the leaves
should be stripped. The ends of the
main shoots should also be shortened a
little. There will DO no harm in order
ing all trees and shrubs in the fall from
the nurseries. and then the more tender
ones may be safely kept oYer for spring
planting by burying them completely
with earth in a dry place.
