great credit for the way in which she

could do no better than to secure her

To Avoid Nothing Is the Easiest Thing
in the World.


To Avoid MottlIng Ia the Easiest Thing
in the World.
Perhaps everyone who has ever made
butter has been troubled with this at
some time. The cause Of the notified
condition which is frequently seen in
butter is "a disputed one, yet IL is simple
enough after all. As we all know, salt
affects the color of butter. All butter
takes on deeper hue when it has been
sailed a few hours. Take lot of but
ter from the churn in mass, salt it in
streaks by cutting down through it
with the ladle and scattering salt free
~ where the ladle went, let it stand half
q day before working and you will see
a good illustration of notified butter
In few words, the explanation is this:
Notified butter is caused by uneven dis
tribution of salt, nothing more or less.
To avoid this the following plan is an
excellent one, and one which is followed
by many of our best butter makers to-
day: Leave the butter in granules, wash
with water cold enough to prevent adj
hesion, drain and salt while still in the
churn, then revolve the churn or tip
from side to side until the butter glob-
ules mass somewhat and the salt is
evenly distributed. BY tipping the
churn one way, then the other, the salt
may be very evenly sprinkled on, or
wooden fork of suitable size may be
used to stir it up, adding only portion
of the salt at time. The salt melts or
dissolves the moment it touches the
grains of butter, and each grain is in
stantly coated with brine. Then when
the butter has drained few minutes
remove ii to the worker, press until
moderately dry and pack away. No
further working is necessary, and there
will be no trace of streaks or a notified
condition to be found. Sailing in the
churn is sure to be favorite method
with those who try it. The amount of
butter can be very closely estimated,
as the amount from given quantity of
cream does not vary very materially
from time to time. Nor is it essential
TO weigh out the salt each time. Meas
ure out pound of salt-usually full
pint of salt will weigh a pound. and it
is more quickly measured than weighed
each time. Some adhere very tenacious
ly to the old way of twice working their
butter, but once is n great plenty. If
the salt is evenly distributed and the
excess of moisture pressed out that is
sufficient, and it can as well be done at
one operation as at two.-Hoard's Dairy
man.
