Working Butter.

Whether the old fashioned dash churr
or the later barrel churns are used, tn,
secret Of turning out nice-looking 10
of butter lies in stopping the Churninf
in proper time. This time has arrived
as every one now breaches, when thu
butter granules appear about the size o
wheat kernels.
From great many quarters we hea
that too much washing will injure thu
flavor of the butter, and no doubt thi
is right. Nay, it is even likely tina
washing may be altogether dispensed
with, as some advocate. A thorough
draining of of the buttermilk has been
found to be better than washing when
the dairy room was kept in good order
and no butter troubles occurred. Still,
washing once or twice will not, we be-
lieve, harm any good grade Of butter to
any great extent.
Washing 40 efton sometimes involves
the danger of s-sing water too cold
This Injuries Q grain, or structure,
probably moro chan anything else.
In late years there has been advanced
a method in working butter known as
the single working. II is met with con.
siderable doubt, as most people have
always worked their butter twice. The
fact is that one good working, and that
at the time of sailing, is all that is re-
quired. When the butter is gathered
in granules floating on the top of the
buttermilk, the washing and draining
ont Of the latter is an easy task. The
cold water prevents the granules from
adhering together, and upon the addi-
ton of salt every particle can be most
easily brought in contact with it. As
the brine drains off, working should COM
mence and be finished then and there.
Work until all excess of moisture has
disappeared and the butter forms a
smooth, even mass. sample of which
will fold readily if worked into wafer
like pat, and at length break.
Every one knows how difficult it is to
rework butter after it has been once
hardened. One thorough working does
away With this as well as some other
troubles. You have the butter in your
hands on y once, and you are done with

Saving Seed.

Crops are beginning to mature in the
garden, and the question of saving seed
should be given some consideration
Select the very best specimens of the
various vegetables that are in the gar.
den and let them perfect seeds, and save
these for the supply next year,
Seeds are good and cheap as they
come from the seedman, but every man
who follows correct system Of economy
will not buy anything which be can
produce on his own land, and garden
seeds are among the things on which q
large profit may be made by saving them
for ourselves instead of buying them of
the seedman.
After the seeds are ripe pick them
over aud put in paper bags where insects
cannot get to them and store in some
airy place until cold weather comes.
Then put them in tight box and keep
them where it is above the freezing
