A good COW demands good pasture.
Having been bred for capacity to convert
food into milk and butter, she must be pro-
vided with sutficiency or she will prove
a failure. The change of location will en-
tirely alter the yield Of COW, and yet
many ascribe the fault to the animal,
when the true cause is the pasture. Nor is
a full supply of grass in the pasture sure
indication that the cow is satisfied. The
appetites of COWS differ; and they will often
lose time by travelling restlessly from one
portion to another, overlooking certain
grasses that are plentiful in order to seek a
more favored kind. For that reason the
pasture should consist of a variety and con-
tain an abundant supply, in order that the
COW may have ample opportunity for fill
ing herself quickly, so that she NAV res:
and masticate her food properly.

Keep 1t in the Creamer Until You Have
Enough for a Churaing.
Stepping into neat stone milk
house last week in this town where all
of the modern improvements in
methods and machinery for the raising
of cream and manufacture of butter
were in use. we were greatly surprised
to find that the owner, who had taken
this pains and expense upon himself in
order to make fine butter, was making
one very serious and destructive mis-
take. We looked in his creamcr and
saw two submerged cans, which he
said was the mornings milk. We
asked him where was the cream-can,
and learned it was in the house ripen-
ing. Why. do you keep your cream
ripening from one churning to another
all at the same temperature regardless
of age? Well, he said he churne d
about once in four or five days and rs
fas. as he skinned the milk he emptied
the cream into the cream-can. Now
this is fatal mistake and may account
to some extent for the low Yields of
butter to q given amount of milk that
has keen acknowledged by many.
Keep the cream-can in the creamer at
as low temperature as you do the
milk, until you have enough for
churning, then take it ont and ripen it
all together and then the older will not
be bitter and there will be no half
churned cream in the buttermilk caused
by unripened cream.-HoGrd's Dairy
man.

OVERWHELMING BUTTER.
Advanced Butter Makers Opposed to the
Second Working.


Second Working.
During my travels among the West
ern fairs last summer, observed the
almost universal fault of over-working
butter. In many instances the salt in
the butter was undissolved. In others,
the butter was greasy and salvy. As
most of the intelligent butter-makers.
especially those with enterprise enough
to make exhibits at the fairs, practice
the granular method of washing butter,
l naturally looked around for the
cause of the butter being overworked.
The churning is stopped when the but
ter is in granular condition and the
washing is done while the butter is in
this condition. Why should it be over
worked? On inquiry, found the use
of coarse salt as general as the over
working was. Sometimes it was only
common barrel salt used. On further
inquiry, found it was thought neces-
sary BY many to work out all the water
possible and then work i'm the salt i'm
an undissolved form, expecting the
they must work and rcwork their but
ter rs long as drop of brine would
collect to run off. This sufficiently ac-
counted for the undissolvcd salt grit
ting in the butter, and for the salvy.
Shiny appearance of OvcrwOrking. So
Iwrotc and talked against this practice
of working butter so much and advo-
Gated reducing the butter after churn-
ing to iifty-five or sixty degrees by
using cold water and then stirring in
the salt while the butter was still in a
granular state. letting the salt melt
and percolato all through the mass be-
fore pressing it together into solid
lump without working.
found some of the more advanced
butter-makers were doing this, giving
their butter no second working. Some
did the sailing in the churn, and some
took the buHcr out into Il bowl or upon
n table, aud there stirred in the salt.
One creamery man said he stirred the
salt in with Il common hay-r.ke, let the
butter stand awhile for the superfluous
brine to drain of, then gently pressed
it together and put it directly into the
packaSc lOT uIdIhtt-uO ScCOHu WOIk-
ing. Another noted brtter-maker
ard premium-taker packed his butter
without pressing it together before
hand. doing the solidifying as he packed
it-of course pouring Off any super
fluous brine that collected. In this
way the grain was preserved intact.
and the butter was in its best condition
for keeping.
But one or two prominent men who
were interested in the sale of coarse
salt opposed these teachings and prac-
tees, declaring not only that they were
pcrnicious. but that butter could not
be successfully sailed and packed in
this way, and this in the face of the
fact that it had been done, and the but
ter had commanded the highest price
and the highest premium. The con-
troversy over this point is still going on
in the West. Meantime, all advanced
dairymen will carefully try the expert
ment of sailing their butter with the
least working and the least labor.
Fine, even-grained salt that freely dis
solves, is an advantage. The fact is.
che cause of most of the opposition
pas: is the coarse salt men fighting to
retain their trade.-F. D. Curtis, tn

THE DAIRY.

Old pasture makes the best of but
ter.-BOs.On Globe.
Whatever becomes of the great
dairy interest in the fight with fraudu-
lent butter, it will still be true that the
overwhelming mass of farmers in the
older States must keep feeding animals
ON their farms, or they will soon be
farming half-ruined land, and growing
poor faster than they would be making
either cheap meat or milk.-Je6ers0n
County Union.
1T is true that . COW MIXED three
times day will always give iaore milk
than when MIXED but twice, with this
proviso, she must have food and diges-
ton to produce an unusual amount of
milk. When trials for large yields are
made. this fact is taken advantage of
and the cows are MIXED three or four
times within the twenty-fOur hours.
The application "On't' is. get good
cows and take care of them.-Mtrror
and Farmer.
The presence of any thoroughbred
COW in a herd has a most remarkable
effect upon the owner. She is the first
one he concerns himself about when
the herd is locked up. She gets all the
petting and extra bites of grass. The
wife sets that cows milk separate to
use in the family, and when the cow
has new calf everybody goes out to
look at it. Such a cow has a refining
influence in the family, and every
farmer should have one in his herd.
