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.

An Old Song With New Words.
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 !"

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.

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.

A man went hunting in the Nevada
mountains, armed with a rifle, a hatchet,
and a long bowie knife. 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

"Oh, Lord ! if you are on my side in
this business I expect you to see me well
out of it. 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."
