Quality Of Hemp Ropes.

A German paper, in an article on the
present methods of rope manufacture
from hemp. and the determination Of
the different qualities and probable
strength simply from appearance, lays
down the following rules: A good hemp
rope is hard, but plant. yellowish or
greenish gray in color, with certain
silvery or pearly luster. A dark or
blackish color indicates that the hemp
has suffered from fermentation in the
process of curing. and brown spots
show that the rope was spun while
fibers were damp, and il consequently
weak and soft in those places. Again,
sometimes a rope is made with in
ferior hemp on the inside, covered
with yarns of good MATERIAL fraud,
however, which may be detected by
dissecting n portion of the rope, OR, in
practiced hands, by its behavior in use;
other inferior ropes are made with
short fibers, or with strands of unequal
strength or unevenly spun-thc rope
in the first case appearing woolly, on
account OF the number of ends of fibers
projecting, and, in the latter case the
irregularity of manufacture Is evident
on inspection by any good Judge

MAKING FINE BUTTER.
How 10 Obtain tho Hest Results In til
Ordinary Farm Dairy.

How To Obtain tho Hest Results In the
Ordinary Farm Dairy.
Much of the excellence of butter de-
ponds on the sailing, and while butter
that for. any reason is really inferior
can not be raised to a grade of excel
lcncc by the sailing. that which other
wise might be classed rs good is often
reduced to an inferior grade by the
manner in which it is treated at the
time of sailing. A good deal of butter
is churncd to death; that is, the churn-
ing is continued to gather the butter so
long after the butter has separated
from the milk that it is pounded into a
creamy, pasty condition, exactly the
opposite of what it should be.
\ piece of really good butter, prop
erly sailed. when cut apart with IA
bright. sharp knife, should show two
clean-cut, smooth and slightly moist
surfaces, without any sign of mash
ing down Of the butter particles. and
none Of them should be found adhering
in sticky mass to the knife. When a
knife is drawn through piece Of but
ter and comes out in such condition
that the blade can not be seen, no
expert is needed TO determine its
quality.
The two methods now in vogue for
sailing butter are termed brine sailing
and dry sailing, each of which has its
advocates. The former consists in
making the salt into Il solution before
it is used, and in the latter the solution
is made by adding dry salt to the water
that remains in the butter after most
of the buttcrmilk has been workt j out.
object of each plan is to surround the
grains of butter with brine, until
enough of the solution is absorbed to
make them palatablc. As the butter
| itself contains about II per cent. Of
water, that must be taken into consid-
GRAFTON in brine sailing, otherwise the
sailing will be too light. On the other
hand, if more dry salt is used than the
water in the butter will turn into a solu-
ton, the dry sailing will be in excess
and be shown in particles of salt I'm.
dissolved.
To get the best results from any
kind OF sailing the churning should
stop when the butter has fairly granu-
lated and before it has been beaten to
Il salty condition by the process OF
gathering. At this stage the butter
milk should be drawn off and the butter
be washed with cold water or cold,
weak brine until it runs off clear, when
