The Invention Of wood engraving. {ira
That Of gunpowdcr, has been claimed
for the Chinese, whose books lave Ger.
tainly been printed for ages from eli.
grayed blocks It has even been as.
serted that the art Of cutting figures
in relief and printing Impressions of
them on paper was known and prac-
t.ced by that ration as early as the
reign Of the renowned Emperor WI
Wing, 1920 y. c. There "a no doubt
that wood stamps were used by the
ancient Egyptians and Romans for
stamping bricks, and other articles
made Of clay; ana that wood and metal
stamps Of monograms, etc, were used
in yarlous European countries for at.
testing deeds and other documents, at
4 very early period, when writing was
considered m extraordinary accom-
plishment, even for princes. It was not.
however, until the beginning of the
fifteenth century that any evidences Of
wood engraving, as understood at this
day, were found. The earliest print Of
which any certain information can be
obtained is that discovered in one of
the most ancient conyents OF Germany,
which represents st. Christopher carry
ing the infant Savior across the sea,
and is dated 1923, This art was en-.
ployed in illustrating many of the early
editions Of the Bible, ami with rapid
strides has at length reached a degree
OF perfection which is truly wonderful,
as may be seen by reference to numer-
Gus works to he found in libraries or
books, the lights and shades and other
minutiae Of the engra Wings comparing
faYorably with those done upon steel
or copper.

Simple rules for butter making
have been issued in revised form by
the Royal Agricultural Society, OF
England. They are put in the follow
ing manuer:
Prepare chnrn, butter-worker,
wooden hands and sieve MS follow !:
(1) Rinse with cool water; ~ scald
with boiling water; CD rub thor
oushly with salt; q rinse with cold
water.
Always use correct Thermometer.
The eream when iu the churu to be at
temperature OF frty-six to fifty
eight degrees IN summer, and sixty to
sixty-iwo in winter. The churn shouEl
never be more than half full. Churn
at number OF revolutions suggested by
maker OF churn. If none nre given.
churn at forty to fogty-fys reyolu-
tious per minute. Always churn slow
~ at first.
Yenhhte the cLurn freely and fse-
quently during churning, until no air
rushes out when the vent is opened.
Stop ehurning Immediately the bnt-
ter comes. This can be ascertained by
the sound; if in doubt, look.
The butter should now be like
grains of mustard seed. Pour in a
small quantity Of cold water Gone pint
water to two quarts crean) to harden
the grams, and give few more turns
to the churn, gently. D.aw off the
buttermilk, giving plenty of time for
draining. Use straining-cloth, placed
over hair sieve, SO as to prevent any
loss, and wash the bntter in the
ehurn with plenty Of cold water; then
draw off the water, and repeat the
process until the water comes off quite
clear.
10 brine batter, make stron /;
brine, two or three pounds of salt to
one gallon oi water. Place sirainiug-
cloth over mouth OF churn, pour ia
brine, put lid on churn, turn sharply

ten to fifteen minutes. Then lift Tho

Close pasturing in autumn rctard5
the growth in the early spring. When
the covering Of roots is eaten right
down to the ground the frost pene-
trates more deeply, hence the ground
remains cold longer in spring. The
cold wind, also, which sweep over tho
surface Of the earth tend to retard
growth. Take the very same field,
compare the growth in elsly spring
oil the portions eaten bare with that
made on the plrts where more or less
Of mulch Of uaeatcu grass covered the
roots all winter, and You will find that
the grass blades on the parts so pro-
tected will have made several inches Of
growth before they began to grow on
the other portions OF the field. The
yield of meadows is greatly insreaaod,
as already minated when they are
not pasturcd closely. The advantage
Of the protection from the uaeaten
portion Of the grass will be greater in
dry tLan in moist seasons, but with
some grasses it will be considerable in
any season. Shallow-rooted grassea
are TINS greatly benefited. With
timothy mea lows the benefit in the
crop is so grent that it is at least an
open question as to whether they
should ever be pas,urel SO long as
they are to be retained as meadow. It
is diff rlnt with deep-rooted plants;
they are less easily injured by either
drouth or frost. Colnuu's RGral

DIFFICULTIES OF euRnr woRK.


Drawings Made by Hot Iron on
Surface of Wood.
Many years age the manual labor Of
the artist in color was reduced to a
minimum; he no longer grinds his col
ors. or makes his canvas and brushes.
But up to the present day the artist in
burnt wood has toiled on with his rude
forge and burning Irons, with the de-
votion Of an old-time alchemlat. SIN
guiany enough, relief from The dis
comforts Of this crude mode Of worl;
has at last come through the avenue
which brings relief from all physical
ailments that Of medicine. The Their
mocautcry, a surgical instrument in
vented Tor cauteriZEg nas been adapt
cd to the use Of the artist. So that he
can work with comparative freedom.
Formerly the llre-etcher employed
copper tools. not unlike soldering irons,
set into wooden or other non conduct
ing handles fhe5o tools cooled rapid
ly, aud ind to be constantly shifted,

CARE or SWEET corn STALKS
There is much waste every year in
allowing sweet corn stalks to stand
and dry up after the greater part Of
the cnrs havo been removed. The
nubbins that arc left are worth more

raise such good early o-ops OF sweet
corn as he used to 90. boston CUT
