The Huntingdon Journal. farm anti *useiplb. Rule• for Making Gilt-Edged Butter. These rules were recently printed in the "Rural New Yorker," and are so excellent and concise that we re-print for the benefit of our readers : FEEDING Select your cows with reference to the quantity and richness of the milk produced. The best cows are the cheapest for butter, so get the best you can of whatever breed you select. Give them good pasturage in the summer, and plenty of pure water, with frequent access to salt. In winter, feed sweet, early-cut hay, well-cured corn fodder, roots, cabbages, etc., and a ration of bran, corn-meal. ground oats, or mid dlings. IMPLEMENTS Have the best implements, and keep them scrupulously clean, well-scalded, and often exposed to the sweetening influences of the sun. The milk pail and pans should be of the best quality of tin. A reliable thermometer is a necessity to every good dairyman. MILKING The milking should be done quietly and at regular times, and the utmost cleanli ness observed. Nothing is tainted quicker than milk by foul odors, and surely at times with nearly all cows there is enough animal odor to it, without adding any more. SETTING. Strain the milk slowly into the pans, four to six inches deep. It is an excellent plan to strain the milk into a large can set in cold water, and cool down to 60 degrees before putting into the small pans. The milk must be set in a pure atmos. phere, at such a temperature as will per mit the cream to rise in from thirty to thirty•six hours after setting. In order to do that the room should be kept at about 60 to 65 degrees, and not allowed to vary much either above or below. In hot weather keep a large piece of ice in a tub in the room. Cover it over with a thick blanket, and, if arranged so that the water will run off, it will keep a longtime, and keep the room very uniform. In cold weather some arrangement for warming the milk room should be adopted. SKIMMING Skim as soon as the milk begins to turn sour. Do not neglect this rule, as it is impossible to make good butter from cream that has become old and sour. When you pour your cream into the cream jar, splash as little as possible. Stir the cream every time you add more to it, and wipe the sides of the pot. Keep the temperature at about 60 degrees, and the cream pot in the coolest part of the house, covered with a fine gauze netting strained on a hoop, not with a tight cover. If covered too tight, fermentation is often too rapid. CHURNING. Churn often, as there is nothing gained by long keeping. Bring the temperature of the cream in the churn to 58°, and not allow it to rise above 64°. Churn early in the morning, while it is cool First scald the churn, turn the paddles a few times; then pour off, and pour in your cream. In churning revolve the paddles with an easy regular motion, not too fast nor too slow. The butter should come in about forty minutes, a little more or a little less if the temperature of the cream when put in was about 58°, ascertained by the thermometer. COLORING When likely to be deficient in color add a sufficient quantity of The Perfected Batter Color (made by Wells, Richardson & Co., Burlington Vt.,) to keep it up to the June standard. WORKING AND SALTING When it has "broken" and there is a difficulty to make the butter gather, throw in some cold water and give a few more turns. Some, and I think a majority, of the best butter-makers of to-day wash their butter with cold water before re moving from the churn. Gather your butter with the paddle and lift it out into the tray, press it gently and incline it, and let the butter milk run off. Work it gently with the paddle, with a cuttitig , gentle pressure, but not mash it; or, bet ter, put into the butter-worker. Salt it about an ounce to the pound, or to the taste of good customers; only with the best salt, and free from lumps and coarseness. Work the butter only so much as to expel the butter-milk, but not to work it too dry. This can be done by the use of a weak brine prepared for the purpose. Put the bowl away in a cool place. After standing twelve or twenty four hours, gently press out with a ladle or machine, the remaining butter-milk, and any brine that will flow out with it, ears being used not to work it too much. If this is done the butter has lost its grain and becomes salvey, and its keeping quali ties aro greatly injured. PACKING, Pack in vessels which will impart no impurities to the butter. Fill within half an inch of the top. Place a thin cloth wholly over the butter. Over that pour cold brine as strong as can be made of hot water and the purest salt, or cover with a layer of fine salt. The whole process of making the butter, from drawing the milk to the placing of the butter in packages, should be hurried,'as milk, cream and but ter are going to decay every moment when exposed to the air, however pure it may be. Such butter is ready to keep or to sell. If to be kept long before selling, surround every package with coarse salt, by placing them in boxes prepared for the purpose. This process keeps the butter cool and bard, and free from sudden changes of air. When all these things are attended to promptly and with as much uniformity as is under the power of man to control, there will be a near approach to uniformity in color, richness and purity. If the new beginner follows these rules, and keeps doing so, he will soon command the highest figures. Cleanliness and common sense applied from the beginning to the end are abso lutely necessary to insure good butter that will bring the highest price in the market. Arduio' Winnowing the Wheat. There is a solemn text which often comes into our mind when we look on the faces of the boys and girls in a Sabbath school : "Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire" (Matt. iii. 12.) John the Baptist said this about Christ. What does it mean ? In Palestine, after the corn has been trod den out on the threshing floor, the work man takes a fan, a kind of flat wooden spade, like that which bakers use to draw the bread from the oven. He lifts a shov elful of the mingled wheat and chaff Ile stands on one side, and tosses the grain up, the wind driving off the chaff, and the wheat remaining on the fan. Then the wheat is carefully gathered into the barn, and the chaff is fit only to be cast into the fire. And so, solemn thought ! every Sab bath school, every family, shall be sifted at last The true Christians, whether they have died old or young, shall enter into the joy of their Lord ; unconverted souls shall be castinto unquenchable fire." And remember, this is to do the sifting or separating "thoroughly," thoroughly. You have sometimes, perhaps, lifted a hand ful of wheat in a barn, and found a parti cle of chaff among it; but that was by mistake If the farmer had noticed it, not. a particle of chaff would have been there. And you may have lifted a handful of chaff and found among it some grains of precious wheat. That, too, was by mistake, else it would not have been there. But Christ will "thoroughly" purge his floor. Not a grain of chaff will be left among the wheat, not a grain of wheat among the chaff. Per haps some one is thinking, "My friends are all good people ; I will take my chance of getting into heaven along with them." Do not be deceived ! In that day if there be one grain of chaff, one unconverted soul in a godly family, that soul will be found out, and separated from father and mother, from brother and sister, forever ; while the precious wheat, the dear chil dren of God, shall be taken to eternal joy, to inherit the kingdom prepared for them before the founnation of the world.—Chil dren's Record. "Go Because it Rains." "I suppose that you won't go to the Sabbath school today. Lucy ?" said a mother one stormy Sabbath morning, settling herself to read. "Please let me go to day, mamma; I want to go because it rains." "Why, Lucy. that is my excuse for staying at home How can you make it a reason for going ?" "Our teacher always goes, mamma, in all weather, although she lives so far away. She told the class that one Sabbath, when she went through the storm, and did not find even one scholar, she was so discourag ed that she could not help crying. She asked us too if we did not go to our day schools in the rainy weather; ani she said, while we must obey our parents, if we ask them pleasantly to let us go, they would likely be willing. Mamma, will you please let me go to day ?" "Well, I am willing, my dear, if you wear your school suit. Go and get ready. But the mother no longer took any interest in her book, but said to her hus band (a lawyer), who came in from the library, "Lucy is going to Sabbath school because it rains, so that her teacher may be encouraged by the presence of at least one pupil. Suppose we go to the chapel for the same reason, if not a better. "Agreed I never could plead a cause to an empty court room, and the minister must find it hard work to preach to empty pews."—English Paper. Look Up. Up. There comes a time to us when we hardly know which way to turn or in which direction to look for aid. No man or wo man lives to middle life without going through some hard places. Bitter ex perience comes to the heart. Dear ones are taken away. Riches are dissipated. The trusted prove unworthy of confidence, and the soul is like a ship beaten of the wind and tossed. But there is always one way to look. Look up. There, far above the black clouds, shines the blue. There, somewhere out of sight, but inexpressibly near to the frail one who seeks his help, is the friend who is ever waiting to be gracious. "What a friend we have in Je sus," as the song says. Is there trouble anywhere ? Take it to the Lord in prayer." When we are hedged in, and go groping through thorn and thicket to find our way out, there is always that narrow way and the angels waiting to take our hand and guide us into it. VIRTUE VICE IN CONTRAST.—Vine is most revolting when seen in contrast with virtue. A profane man belching forth oaths among those who never swear; an atheist pouring forth blasphemies in the p-esence of reverent and holy men ; an in ebriate filthy and coarse, mingling with persons who never touch the debasing draught; the vulgar libertine corrupting the air with unwholesome speech, to the disgust of those whose minds are pure ; in every such instance vice is not alone as a sin, but as a horrid deformity. It not only brings death but also shame. It is not only wicked but vile. It is not wrong but very mean. How lovely by the same contrast does virtue appear ! How sweet the lips of chastity ; how pure the lips of reverent piety; how excellent the life of abstinence; how blessed the example that chides the erring, rebukes the unholy, impress the young, guides the wanderer, and strengthens the weak by its silent powers. The Value of Time. As in a fire the loss greatly depends upon the time required for efficient aid to arrive, so the result of catarrh greatly depends upon the speedy use of efficient remedies. For over a quarter of a century, Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy has been the standard remedy. The positive cures it has effected are numbered by thousands. Each year has witnessed an increased sale. Its repu tation is the result of superior merit. If the disease has extended to the throat or lungs, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covert' should be used with the Catarrh Remedy. These two medicines will speedily cure the most stubborn case of catarrh. See the People's Common Sense Medical Adviser, a work of over 900 pages. Price, 81.50. Address the author, R. V. Pierce, M.

There was a young woman of Worcester, She petted an old Shanghai rocester, When asked what indorster; To fondle the rocester, She blushed, for the question conforceiter. But with scorn and with slight he Worcester, With cold disregard he reforcester ; Ile laughed at her charms, And he lied from her arms, And roamed about just as he orcester. Of course we are full of sympathy for a person afflicted by any impediment in speech, as well as for one suffering from any trouble, yet the stutterer oft times furnishes laughable instances which when not mentioned in a breath of ridicule, there can be no harm in repeating. In this latter connection I would mention an old acquaintance. He was a little active fellow, proprietor of a small candy and grocery store in a village east of Chicago. Generally a eood• hearted fellow, he never became angry unless some mention of his stammering was made by persons desiring to ridicule him. Bad boys would sometimes enter his store and ask the price of something which they knew was marked a shilling, for my friend Nestor was so sensitive that he wonld rather lose a cent or two on an article than attempt to remark that the price of it was a "sh-sh shilling." The boys knew this, of course, and so, when asked the price of the shilling articles, Nestor would evade their ridicule and promptly reply that it was worth a "d d dime." Only once did Nestor smile at his ,wn misfortune. One day a stranger entered his store and, approaching the counter, said : w-w-want a d d-dime's w-worth of t-t-tobacco." "F fi fine-cut or p p-plug ?" innocently questioned Nestor. "G ggo to-with your t t tobacco ; I'm n not here to be insulted !" angrily exclaimed the stranger, rushing from the store. Nestor saw his mistake, and was in duced to indulge in a smile over it. Friend Nestor was very cond of hunting, and, with a young son, would often pass half a day shooting squirrels in the woods near the village. One day they were in the woods, as usual after squirrels. Nestor had emptied his gun at a large hawk, and just then espied a squirrel making for his home in a neighboring tree. Nestor was at once all excitement. His son was a few rods away with a loaded gun. Nestor could never talk when excited, but on this occasion he twisted his mouth into all manner of con tortions, slapped himself on the stomach , and ejaculated : "Gr g g-George, c-c c come q-q-q quick ; here's a sq sq-quirrel ! No, needn't he's gone !" Tie finished as the nimble squirrel popped out of sight into a hole in the tree. On another occasion, they were out with their little dog after rabbits. N3stor started oat a rabbit. Where was the dog? Turning and grasping a small sapling for support, Nestor quickly ejaculated : "Here, P-p-p•p-p !" then, as the rabbit bobbed around a brush pile out of sight, he turned to George and said : "G -g George, I can't say P-p-p-Poppy ; so, we'll change that dog's name to Tr-Tr- Tr-Trip !" EASTWARD oig eac 4 , d r PO" x y r. 71 Cousin Kate was a sweet, wide-awake beauty of about seventeen, and she took it into her head to go down on Long Island to see some relations of hers who had the misfortune to live there. Among those relations there chanced to be a young swain who bad seen Kate on a previous occasion, and seeing, fell deeply in love with her. He called at the house on the evening of her arrival, and she met him on the piazza where she was enjoying the evening air in company with two or three of her friends. 8 15 P. If The poor fellow was so bashful that b e could not find his tongue for some time. At length be stammered out : "How's your mother?" "Quite well, thank you." NOETHWARD NAIL. Another silence on the part of Josh, during which Kate and her friends did the best they could to relieve the monotony. After waiting about fifteen minutes for him to commence to make himself agreea ble, he again broke the spell by— " How's your father ?" which was an swered much in the same manner as the first one, and then followed another silence like the other. "How's your father and mother ?" again put in the bashful lover. "Quite well, both of them." This was followed by an exchange of glances and a suppressed smile. This lasted ten minutes mire, during which Josh was fidgeting in his seat stroking his Sunday hat. But at length another question came— " How's your parents ?" This produced an explosion that made the woods ring. NORTHWARD No. 2. EXP. P. M. 6W 5 45 5 40 5 30 SUP?. G. F GAGE, L ROAD. trains will SOUTH WARD. MAIL. No. 4. P.

As he reached a clearing he espied a huge grizzly bear and at the same moment the grzzly bear espied him. Nothing daunted, the man discharg ed his rifle but missed the bear. Some. what excited he threw the hatchet and and again missed the bear. At this point he made np his mind that with nothing bat his knife left he needed some outside assistance, and he determined to ask for it. Now he was not a praying man and was not familiar with the usual forms of peti tion, but the - emergency was great and with no thought of profanity he drew the bowie-knife and ejaculated 12 35 12 18 12 09 A.

If you are au that of the bear you must draw it as mild as you can, and if possible dull his claws a little. But, if you have no preference either way, just stand to one side and you'll see the cussedest bear fight that ever came off in the Nevada mountains." r-..-41.- Stuttering. Kind Inquiries.
