One OF the clri1sities Of New York city Is
the growing tendency 20 form a group Of
cite. instead OF ono. for as one moves about
the eastern streets he goes distinctly from
one nat .oualty 90 another. On one street,
or group OF blocks, one language is spoken,
AID on contiguous blocks, another. Mul-
berry stree. and vicinity is wholly Italian in
spirit, in spcoch. IN sports and employment.
Mott street. a little further on, is the Chinese
home. % hive Of Cccstais There IS also a
Bohemia. a Poland, Hungary q Palestine,
while Ireland is pretty much all over and
everywhere This grouping of nationalities
is seen also in marked degree IN Chicago, and
in lesser degree elsewhere. 1t is not easily
avoided. bu- it is attended with evils and
dangers. II is SLOW work assimilating such
people into our common IItonahty. The
Irish and Germans most easily fuse with ouT
NATIVE Saxon stock. Globe Democrat.

Churus and Churning.


Churning is process that, almost NOR,
than any other In butter making. depend.
for being well done on the implement nsed
Points Of merit In churn are: First
The agitation should be Of such q char
acter that the cream is churned by con
cussion rather than friction One would
suppose that the fat globule. protected
for the time being in liquid, would stand
agitation Of any sort; but when we re-
member that one churn will bring the
butter in Eve minutes. which would not
come In thirty minutes in another churn
we can conceive Of 1t being possible to
over agitate cream in churning What.
ever may be the effect at the beginning OF
churning, 1t is without question that when
cream begins to "break" and butter ia
form" the character Of the agitation
may be such as to injure the grain Of the
butter It is the experience of butter
makers that some churns destroy the grain
and make the butter greasy. Another
question is settled. 1t is not the slow
churns which injure the grain of butter,
but the quick churns. The slow churns
are the churns without inside fixtures;
the quick churns are the churns with
dashers
Second A churn should give It's con
tents uniform agitation The cream should
be churned all alike and the butter come
as near as possible at the same time
This is important for quantity as well as
quality of butter When all the cream is
agitated alike. more of the cream Is
churned without, some of it being over
churned When hitter all comes at the
same time there less waste of butter in
bnttermilk in draining or washing. The
churn which meets this condition. is. in
the opinion of many. a churn without
dashers
Ease of working is very important es-
sential in a churn- 1t was the hard work
Of churning that brought into favor the
quick churns that have spoiled so much
butter. The movable body churns are
doubtless the easier churns to work of the
two classes Among these the revolving
churn, il rightly constructed. Is easier
than the oscillating churn. especially for
large quantities.
Ventilation is essential In churn.
When cream is first subjected to agita-
ton. especially If it be at all sour. it
evolves gas. This gas should be allowed
to escape; both for sake of easy churning
and quality of butter. With the old dash
churn the ventilation was easy-through
a loose and open cover. The revolving
churn. which bears off the palm in per.
haps all other respects. is the weakest of
all at this point To prevent loss of
cream 1t must needs be well closed up
1t is necessary, when using a revolving
churn. when not otherwise provided for,
to stop occasionally. pull out the stopple
or plug and let the gas escape. This is
done frequently in the beginning of the
process. Afterward it is not so necessary.
Some churns have patented arrangements
for this purpoe.
