The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1891-08-19

THE Royal Agricultural Society of
England has published some excellent
rules for butter-making, which are as
applicable in this country as elsewhere,
and from the list we condense %
Rinse all dairy utensils in cold water.
(2) Scald with hot water and rinse
again with cold. (3) Always use a
thermometer. (D Churn the cream at
a temperature of fifty-eight to sixty
degrees in summer and sixty to sixty
two degrees in winter. (5) Give the
churn good ventilation, and churn at
forty TO forty-fve revolutions to the
minute. (6) Stop churning when the
butter has formed in pellets the size of
small shot. % Draw off the butter
milk, and pour pure water into the
churn until it runs off clear and I'M
colored. (S) Make strong brine and
pour into the churn through a fine
sieve. (9) Remove the butter and
work it with the ladle or upon a butter
worker. Never use the hands.

Mr.. NEWTON voices the feeling of
hundreds of Christian farmers, when
he says; 81 hardly understand how the
most highly educated men we have, Of
fcers of so-called Christian colleges,
can stoop to do such things. l do hope
the farmers of New England, if none
others, will get this great wrong
righted "-and adds, what is measur-
ably true, that "the English feeling
has come over here-the American
farmer is despised by the 'higher(?)
classes.'" But we all ought to bear
in mind, that despite and contempt fall
harmless when aimed at self-respect-
ing men and women. Our farmers
have in their own hands, by the ballot,
the prompt and effective remedy for
every public wrong. But we would
like to hear from Mr.. Newton what he
thinks of the likelihood of the farmers
of Vermont taking hold and straight
ening out their educational wrongs at
the next state election.

OUR good friend, j. w. Newton of
Stowe, rightly criticises, in the Home
stead, the actions of Yale College in
trying to gobble all of Connecticut's
share of the new industrial college
fund. Half of it, if not the whole,
should justly go to the Storrs School,
which is the best institution of the
kind in the United States-and as yet
the only one on lines so long advocated
in these columns-an industrial and
scientific school for farm boys, with no
high-toned ideas suggested by the
name of college," so unfortunately
bestowed upon the land-grant schools.

but all allowed to change to moths,
and these latter to raise horde OF
worms, what wonder that the second
brood sometimes appears in such count
less numbers as to defy all efforts to
destroy them before they have ruined
the crop. Every moth ought to be
destroyed as they appear, and this
may be done to great extent by in
jecting a few drops ofsweetened Cobalt
(Which is poison) into the flowers of
the -Petunia, Honeysuckle or James
town Oimpson) weed, which will give
them their final quietus. But this
hunt for the moth is not general, and
if it were some would escape. But
if every planter would wage war Of
determination on the first brood OF
worms-unfortunately thing rarely
done--they would never appear in
unconquerable hordes later in the
season. The suckers should be pulled
off every week as they appear. and
ought never to be permitted to get
over two inches long for, if permitted
to grow large, they abstract much that
would otherwise go to perfect rich,
silky leaf. No planter need expect a
crop of fine grade who does not pull
off the suckers while small, and pre-
vent the horn-worms from riddling
the leaves. R. L. RAGLAND.

A YOUNG HERO.
A Worthy Example for Other
North Carolina Boys to
Follow.
lTarbOrO Southerner.I

[Tarboro Southerner.I
The history of R. Herbert Pittnan,
a native of No. 5 township, shows
what young man can do, and that if
he has the will he can certainly rise.
At the age of II the little smatter-
ing of books he had acquired in the
few months he was allowed to attend
public school near his fathers, in
cited him to drink deeper of the "Pie-
rian spring"
He wished to attend one session at
A. ]. Moore's school at Whitakers,
but his father was unable to send him.
This did not daunt him. He told his
father if he would consent for him to
60 he would pay his own tuition.
What father could refuse?
He studied under Mr.. Moore five
months. That good teacher seeing
what metal the lad was made of, cred
tied him for his schooling. He made
wonderful progress. At the end of
the session he prevailed on his father
to let him go to Battleboro and study
telegraphy under Andrew Hobgood.
Mr.. Hobgood also recognized in
him that spirit which will win success.
He also agreed to wait until he could
make enough to pay him.
When young Pittman had mastered
this he was anxlons to begin the battle
of life. His fathers affairs were such
that he could i'll afford to spare him,
! but the son soon convinced him that
he could do him more good working
at his profession than assisting him on
the farm.
ssLet me 60 to South Carolina where
l can get a situation and I will pay
by the time l am 81 years old, the
$3.50 you owe Mr."
He went. In two years, instead of
three, that debt has been paid, so also
has Mr.. Hobgood and MIR. Moore. He
is doing the work of two men where
he is located, Atkins, S. G. At that
place he is express agent, freight agent
and telegraph manager. He is also
conductor on the short line OF railroad
which runs from Atkins to Bishopville.
In the day he is engaged at the former
place. About in the evening he
boards his train for the latter and re-
turns next morning in time to attend
to all duties.
| Herbert Pittman's history may be
studied by all young men. He is
a living example of the truth that
ssWhere there's will there's way"
He is here on visit, his first since
he set out to WOO fortune. He is quiet,
unassuming, gentlemanly, an honor to
himself, a comfort to his family.
He has the Soufherner's heartiesl
congratulations and warmest commen,
dations.

WHAT LOVE IS.

Inc cause ana aim OI all GnlnSS- us tHe
To Joy and sorrow and the recompense
For all the ills that have been or may
be.
Love is as bitter as the dregs of sin,
AS sweet as clover honey in the cell;
Love is the pass word whereby souls get
in
To Heaven-the gate that leads some
times to hell.
Love is the crown that glorifies, the curse
That brands and burdens; it is life and
death.
1t is the great law of the universe,
And nothing can exist without its breath
Love is the impulse which moves the
world,
And all things know it and obey its
Man, in the malstrom of passions whirled
The bee that takes the pollen to the
flower.
The earth. uplifting her bare' pulsinf
TO fervent kisses of the amorous sun-
Each but obeys creative Loves behest,
Which everywhere instinctively is done
Love is the only thing that pays for birth
Or makes death welcome. Oh, dear Goo
above
This beautiful but sad, perplexing earth
Pity the hearts that knOw-Or know not
Love.

her people must pull together. Small
