HOW TO PACK BUTTER.
1t Can lie Kept sweet and In Good Order
for Months.

Butter is never so good rs when used
within one week from the time il leaves
the churn. 1t possesses then delic ne
proma and a peculiar. indescrib able
flavor, which soon passes away and Is
never present thereafter; but butter
properly made can be kept sweet md
IN good order for months.
Get the butter in good condition as
soon as possible after churning and
pack it firmly in gallon or half-gallon
iars. Those containing five or six
pounds are preferable. When the jars
are bought ask the seller. as he marks
the weight of each, to number them, so
that record of the amount OF butter
in each jar can readily be kept Pack
the jars level full. tie round piece OF
strong, thick cloth over the top and
place il bottom side up into new, large
crock. Do not pack butter made at diff
ferent times in the same jar. but store
only those jars that can be filled at one
churning.
Make strong brine, using all the salt

gallon a teaspoonful OF saitpeter ana
teaspoonful Of graduated sugar. Scald
the brine and skim il thoroughly

Archibald Bruce said: "There goes a

promising young man that has ever
gone from GLASGOW" Henry Clay was
moderator for the Campbell-Rice de-

great men, but l have not met
greater mind or man anywhere" At

plored the Sectarian differences that
existed in the religious world. He
said that this driftwOOd of human
creeds and popish traditions was not
as it should be, for it was not as God
had made it in the beginning. Hence
the great plea of unity for the war
ring factions Of Gods people took
deep root in his soul. Unity on the
Word of God and the Bible the only
guide book became his battle cry.
Rev. Weimer then spoke of Camp
bell as a man, as debater, and as a
man OF the Sublimest faith. As a
Bible scholar he has few, if any,
peers. Clay pronounced him the most
finest Bible scholar since Paul. He
