KEEPING SUMMER BUTTER.

A De Kalb county, Illinois, CORES
pondcnt of The HUUi NcU YOrkCr
writes: 1t is fact well conceded by
all good judges OF butter that butter
made in June is better favored than
that made in any of the other eleven
months. 1t is therefore very important
that everyone should know how TO
keep the June product for winter use.
Here is one way: Pack the butter
solidly in stone crooks to within an
inch of the top, level it, and cut piece
of white muslin and spread it over the
top; then fill to the top with common
salt. Dig 4 hole in the ground on the
north side Of some building, or in the
the shade Of some tree; or, if this is
inconvenient, the garden will do; let it
be deep enough, 50 that when the crock
is covered the earth on top of it will
not be less than eighteen inches thick.
In this hole place the crock; over it put
something that will turn off the water
if any teaches down to it. An old tin
pan turned over makes good cover.
Pack on the earth, leaving il rounding,
like an ant-hill, TO carry oil the surface
water. If this work is done in the
garden, plant over the top tomato
vine, or few beans, or anything, &c
shade and keep away the torrid rays Of
the sun. The work is then finished,
until one wishes to take out the butter
any time before frost. This method
will warrant to keep butter perfectly
sweet until winter, if proper care j,
taken. An old acquaintance of min'
tells me he has practiced this plan fol
years, and when he lived on the farm
he used to take up his butter in Noyem
Der, and sell it for 40 cents per pound
whersas if it had been disposed of whel
made, he could not have realized mor'
than 10 cents. This is also goot
way to keep canned fruit during th
summer, il one has not proper plac
Tor the purpose. Put the cans in
box and bury it as the above, if came,
in glass.

farming for n livelihood or as n branch
of business do not regard it rs very
pleasurable occupation. In fact, they
often complain of their monotonous
life and of their lack of the means of
enjoyment Many farmers make their
plans to spend the latter years of their
lives in some town, where they can
have more to ENJOY than they do on
the farm. Men who become rich in
cities, however, desire to retire to tho
country, and very many of them do so.
A large proportion OF the very wealthy
men in this city own and manage farms.
Several of them are well versed in
every department of agriculture, fruit
growing, and stock-raising. The like
is true of men of wealth in other cities
in the country. Farming is engaged
in as pastime by many people in
Great Britain, Indeed, complaints are
constantly being made in the English
papers by farmers that so much land
is being secured by persons of large
means, who desire to engage in different
branches of husbandry simply for pleas
ure. They purchase land at prices
that those who look upon it as safe
investment for conducting farming
operations can not afford to pay. They
also secure the best stock of all kinds,
not with view to profit, but as sources
of pleasure. The English gentleman
OF wealth and leisure takes more pleas
ure at his country seat than in his
London mansion. He takes pleasure
in being a good farmer, skillful fruit
grower, and successful stock breeder.
A large number of professional and
business men in New York and Phila-
delphia manage farms as means for
recreation. They spend money on
them, not with view of getting re-
turns in cash, but in happiness. Law
yerS, ministers, merchants, and manu-
facturers spend considerable of their
time in farming as source of pleasure.
Is there any other kind Of business
in which men engage simply "for the
fun of the thingP' Rich men do not
engage in mining manufacturing, or
trade simply for pleasure. No one,
perhaps, ever heard Of man who had
an abundance OF this worlds goods
engaged in running train of cars,
hammering at an anvil, tending saw
mill, laying brick, or quarrying stone
for pleasure. They do not think that
they can obtain any enjoyment in any
of these occupations. They leave them
to persons who are obliged to engage
in them for the purpose of supporting
themselves and their families. They
engage in agriculture, horticulture,
and stock-raising with the expectation
OF having a good time, and from their
own accounts are seldom disappointed.

FRUIT NEAR THE GROUND.

Some persons strive to have fruit
produced as lar from the ground rs
possible. They seem to think that
there is an advantage in having it near
the sun. They delight in trees with
tall trunks and branches that extend
upward. They are constantly cutting
of the lower limbs, SO as to secure very
tall trees. They trim pear stalks so
that they look Like Lombardy poplars.
In buying trees of a nursery or from
travelling dealers they select the ta.lest.
Ii they have grave vines they take pains
to train them very high from the ground.
In some cases they allow latera.s TO
run into branches OF trees. They con-
siUugt trellises six or more feet in
height They cndeayOr to fix the lar
gest vines on the highest wire or piece
of wood used rs q support. They trim
cugrants and gooseDerry bushes in tree
form They encourage blackberry and
raspberry cones to attain a great length,
and are q. the trouble and expense Of
supporting them with stakes and twne.
They have frames for supporting to-
matO vines, so as to have them grow
like trees. These is one advantage in
having fruit at some distance from the
surface Of the ground 1t renders it
less liable to be gathered by fowls.
Every other consideration is against
the practice. Large fruit, as apples.
pears, and peaches are difficult to
gather when they are on tall trees
They are liable to injury in falling after
they become ripe. No kind of fruit
ripens as well at long distance from
the ground as it does quite near it.
The temperature Of the air is higher
near the surface than several feet
above it. With grapes and tomatoes,
raised in this latitude, it is important
to make ali we can out Of the short
season. The soil stores up heat during
the day and gives it out during the
night. The nearer the fruit is to the
ground the more benefit it derives from
It, Fruit within a foot Of the grounC
has the benefit of more heat than tha
which is several feet removed from it

A White Mira soIa 70 an indian.

4 novel transaction took place in this
vicinity during the past few days. 1t
is of common occurrence for an Indian
to buy n squaw, but for white man to
sell his wife and children to an Indian
is something that we never heard of
before. The two principals to the
transaction were Thomas Kirby, of Al
my, pusiIlanimous little eur, and
dusky son of the forest who has been
lettering hercabouts for several days.
1t appears that Kirby, by his abuse,
had long since driven his wife from
home, who took up her abode in Ey-
anston, together with three children.
The first that was known of the swap
was on Wednesday morning, when the
Indian boltcd into the house, every
room of which he proceeded to exam
inc. The lady inquired as to his inten-
tons, whereupon he informed her that
Little white man in Amy sell me
white squaw and three papoose-two
GIRLS, one boy -- for ponies The
would-be-propcrty of the Indian was
so minutely described that what he
said carried conviction TO the wife's
mind as to Kirby's intentions, and it
was only through the persuasion of
Beckwith, Dunn " Cos tcamster that
the irato red man did not carry off his
new purchase. UHta Chietiam.

tations. 1t is due to Kellogg to state that he
appeared before the committee at his own
instance, July l, and made a full explana-
ton under oath of his transactions with
Walsh aud Price. Kellogg's statement hav-
ing been made ON the LIST Of July, and the
session having adjourned on the 18th, the
committee was unable to further investigate
the matter.
The remainder of the report is taken up
with the question of civil suits, the removal
OF local officers in the district of Columbia,
and the retirement of Attorney General
MacVeagh. In conclusion the report says:
"Your committee is of the opinion there
were many causes which operated to prevent
the successful prosecution Of the star route
offenders. Whatever these causes may have
been, it is nevertheless true that those who
will take pains to read carefully the testi
mony taken by your committee on this sub
ject, comprising nearly u thousand pages of
printed matter, will reach differ
ent conclusions. There was q great
diversity in the testimony, and many
contradictions will be found wholly irrecon-
cilable upon any other theory than that Of
wilful perjury. 1t is sufficient, however, for
the purpose Of this investigation to state that
while the evidence against the star route
contractors and public officials was strong
and conclusive as to their guilt, and that the
government was defrauded out of large sums
of money, and that large sums were also eX-
pended to secure the indictments and con-
victions, yet no person was convicted or
punished, and no civil suits have as yet
been instituted to recover the vast sums lille
gally and fraudulently obtained from the
public treasury"
