Packing Butter In Brine.

Inoice that the subject of packing butter
in brine is being discussed, as though it was a
new idea. On the contrary, I know that butter
that way in 1s49, for was there and used the
butter myself. 1t was first packed in small
kegs: and then these kegs headed up and full
of butter, were placed in large cask and that
filed up with brine and headed up tight The
butter was in pretty fair condition, although
it was ordinary store butter, and of course was
However, for 81. SO per pound, and to those Of
us who had not seen nor tasted butter for six
OF eight months, you can be assured it seemed
good, even if it was little strong ,..'
About that time, or soon after party pat
ented q method Of preserving and shipping
the same as farmers used to do their sausage
meat, and then immersing these in brine.
It was claimed that butter thus prepared could
be Slipped around the world, and in all climes,
Rnd preserve its favor, but whether true or not
am unable to say IL
When I was a boy, residing in the state Of
New York, my mother used to pack her butter
top, and then cover it with brine, as I
presume. lothers y; did,, the object being to
exclude the air from contact with it as perfect
as possible. It would be worth while for some
of your butter makers to try the experiment. Of
packing in brine, because if successful it would
enable the butter to be sent long distances
without deterioration, and in as much as there
is no known substance which so readily alb
serbs f1svors as:milk and butter. It is especi-
ally subject TO- injury by. being shipped sor
stored in the vicinity Of other substances
As an illustration, I recollect once, that q
skunk was killed in the vicinity of our house,
and every particle. of milk aud cream in the
cellar was so bitter in q couple of hours af-
forward that it was impossible to use it, and it
was all thrown away "a nr>'t!I 4 ...s.::D
For that reason, milk, cream, and butter
should always be kept by themselves, and new
or stored in a cellar or room with meat vege-
tables, or any other substance which has per-
ceptible favor. Even the shipping Of it in tubs,
on the cars, or keeping it In store houses in
connection with other substances, will injure it.
Henceif packing in brine will preserve It's orig
inal flavor and sweetness, and prevent the ab-
sorption Of bad favors, it will be great thing
for both producerand consumer ~ l:;;.Ss =
There can be no doubt that it will exclude
the air from contact with it and preserveit for
q longer period, and it seems reasonable that
it should prevent the butter from absorbing
bad smells and ffavorss 't.'':' - ~ y
It is quite probable that other preser vative
chemicals can be added to the brine with ad-
vantage, but this is D matter that requires the
chemical knowledge Of experts, and experiment
to demonstrate. Why not haye some of your
Agricultural college professors give this mat
ter their attention.? Nothing could be Of more

Light and Heavy Manuring.

A question often occurs as to the
amount of manuring which is most
profitable to apply to land. A light
dressing, over a wide surface, is by
some believed to be the best, while
others insist on heavy manuring on a
limited area. The question is answered
by the manner in which the manure
is applied. If merely speread on the
surface and plowed in, a wide and
thin coat would be most profitable.
A large mass would not become inter-
mixed with the soil and in dry sea-
son might be worse than useless.
Five thin coats, plowed under in as
many successive years, would be much
better than one coat FIVE times as
thick, simply turned under at one OPP
peration. A large amount may be
applied in single season, provided it
is first finely broken and pulverized,
and then intimately intermixed with
the soil by repeated blowing and har-
rowing, or on "a small scale with the
SPADE, hoe, and steel rake.

Wheat remains the same, with perhaps
a little better demand for the better
grades. So much of our wheat this
year is of so poor quality that it is
not wanted except at low figures. Corn
is in rather better demand for the
last few days, but how long it will con-
tinue:is uncertain. So far, the reports
coming from the wheat crops all over
