Butter making demonstrated Mrs. Harry Breneman (left) and Anna Neal are experienced in the craft of butter making. They have been volunteering with the butter demonstration for the last eleven years at the Landis Valley Museum Harvest Days. They use three quarts of sweet cream to make two pounds of butter.. The length of time it takes to make the butter “depends upon the weather,” according to Mrs. Breneman. “It takes us about X A hour, but we can do it in 10 minutes if the weather’s right." After it is removed from the churn, the butter is washed with clear, cold water until the water is no longer cloudy. They then work it with paddles and add salt. When it is the proper consistency, they mold the butter, but the women cautioned that butter molds must be wet, or the mold will not be successful. They usually soak the jintensils overnight, and ksep them immersed in water between batches of butter. For those who think butter only comes in the familiar quarters, seeing the lovely molded butter is an educational experience. KOEHRING Farm Division THE BRADY 630 FLAIL WINDROWER - THE NEW LOW-COST WAY TO HARVEST STOVER. CORN OR. MILO STALKS FOR VALUABLE CATTLE FEED OR BEDDING. The Brady 630 Stover Saver Wmdrower cuts a 14-foot swath (six 30-mch rows or four 40-inch rows) and lays down a uniform windrow. Use your forage harvester, conventional baler, large round baler or stack wagon to pick up windrow for fast, high capacity harvesting of corn or milo stalks. Follow right behind the combine or other grain harvesting operation to put four wide or six narrow rows into a windrow. Pick it up with your forage,harvester for a nutritious, ensilable feed for cows or a growing ration for young stock. For fast harvesting of low-cost cattle feed or bedding, windrow the dry stalks and bale with your conventional baler or big round baler—or, make stacks over twice as fast with your stack wagon. v The P.T.O driven flails cutand lift the crop into the 14-inch diameter cross auger. The new, improved forward pitch flight- GRUMELLI'S FARM SERVICE Quarryville, PA 17566 BRADY J&N STOVER SAVER FlilL WINDPOWER mg on the auger increases capacity, delivering the material to the, center for discharge through the adjustable windrow forming doors. The shape of the windrow can be controlled—a particularly important feature when using a large round baler. Use the Brady 630 as a stalk shredder by merely opening the two hinged covers over the auger. The cut material is then discharged evenly onto the field from the rear of the machine rather than into a windrow. Shredded material improves crop residue decomposition and subsequent tillage operations. Four wheels are standard equipment, adjustable for various row spacing, to float the unit over uneven ground: Operating height may be controlled hydraulically. An End Transport Kit is available as extra equipment for easy transport down narrow roads.
