As a preliminary, I must beg 'the indukeeee

it to be undersioad that toy observations are
chiefly adapted for th. , use of small estiblish
inents, where from three to six cows are kept.
It is inferred that every thing itt the dairy is
rundoeted with the most strict regard to clean
liness. It ought to he a cool, dry. well-aired
place, free from all damp and bad smells.
is a great mistake to suppose that the art of
making good butter Consists merely in having
it properly churned, thoroughly washed, and
sufficiently salted. All this may be most poi.tt
edly done, and 3 et the butter turn out very bad.
The main it must never be lost
sight of—is to keep the milk, in all its stages,
from contracting the least degree of taint. By
tainc Ido not m-an sourness. Sourness will
not injure the butter: on the contrary, it great
ly facilitates churning; and, to obtain this in
winter, when cream is slow to sour, it is ne
cessary to place it. for twenty-four hours be
fore churning, within the influence of a fire
and to stir it 'thoroughly two or three times
during this period. •
(Imam ought never to remain on milk above"
thirty six hours/ This! consider to be a very
important point; for if, by any omission, cream
he suffered to remain for a longer time on milk.
it is true to contract an old bitter taint; and it
would be more true economy to pour such
cream into the pig's trough than to introduce
it into the churn, as it svtli spoil the whole.-
1 properly leaded stone jar is better than a
wifinlen vessel or keeping cream: because
v. nod is more apt than stone-ware to get maul
.ly : a slight mould soon communicates itself
to cream. and of course to the butter.
A wooden rod must be routumally kept in
thk- j ir, and every time cream is added. the
contents twist be stirred from top to bottom
with the rod. This is very essential ; for, if
neglected. the cream first put in will gradually
rise to the top, and so get tainted. Cream
ought never to be kept above five days ; but
four is still safer for butter that is to be salted.
If the atmosphere at tll4.o4une of churning be
above fifty-four degrees. one quart of the cold
est spring-water to every three gallons of
cream, put into the churn at commencing, will .
be a great advantage , and will injure neither
butter nor milk. If there be the slightest
cam for suspecting the butter has suffered
from hasty churning in warm weather, it ought
to be salted Pir present use, and not put into
the kit with keeping butter.
Butter, on being taken ontof the churn. .
ought to be instantly washed in spring-water
until the water comes off colorless. After this,
the sooner it is salted the better. In salting.
use the best English selt.—surh as is used in
the curing of herring. To three parts of sa't
add one part of loaf sugar, both finely pounded
and perfectly well mixed. One ounce of this
to sixteen of butter is the proper quantity.—
Let it be thoroughly incorporated with the
butter. In cleaning and salting butter,,a stout
creaming dish is preferable to the hands.
Kits made of , wood are much superior to
stone-ware in keeping of butter. the top of
the kit ought to be about one fourth narrower
titan the bottom, and wood nearly one inch in
thickness. A thin-wooded kit is not so favor
able for preserving butter.
In the process of salting,a little salt and wa
ter ought to cover the butter from the first, and a
piece of thin linen should also be spread over
it. The sides of the kit must be daily wetted
with thin salt and water. 'by which mould is
prevented front forming on - the empty part of
the kit during the time of filling. The kit
ought to be filled within one inch of the top.
and kept clinstantly covered by linen, and a
pickle of salt and water. Butter is apt to rise
above the pickle. This is easily prevented by
turning a dinner-plate over the butter. By
placing a weight on the lid, the plate will be
kept down. The kits must be kepi on a cool
airy shelf of the dairy—not on the floor—and
occasionally moved around a little. Butteefor

the time the cows are on pasture. It itta must'

and these notes to be set down occasionally in
a book. A jar of ready-made pickle. just
a rong, enough to move en egg, but not so
strong as to cause it to swim to the top, ought
always to be kept in the dairy. Have also at
hand a can of prepared salt and sugar, to be
kept in a dry place, as dairy will be too damp.
The kits ought to be all numbered, and those
first salted shou'd be first used.
I have still to beg your Indulgence for a few

die the hopes id the husband. The
cows must Le oinked twice' a day, and we
want a little atil Irmo you,, as wages are high
and the mower must not long be detained. As
we are sometimes kept late in the tickl, we
hope to find all the ewe milked on our return;
but milk them properly, or they may Letter
stand till our return.
Ltd no small children enter the yard at the
time of milking. Let not the cows be disturb
ed at night, but approach them with kind
words. If you scold them, or whip them,you
ma, be cheated of half your milk. After you
hare brushed the dirt from the udder, and seat
ed yoursell on the right side of the cow, grasp
the teats. oae in each hand, near their extrem
ity. Squeeze gently at first, or the cow may
he pained and start away ; after a few squeezes
you may venture all your strength. In about
half a minute, if the cow has been well bred.
the milk flow as fast as you can possibly draw
it from the teats. Now let nothing interrupt
your labor. Squeeze the teat and draw it
down at the same moment; and, at every re
laxation of your hand for more milk in the teat,
press up your hand. against the bag and this
will have a tendency to bring all the milk out
of the udder: it is an imitation of the butting
of the calf against the bag.
You must not stop to speak nor to bespoken
to until your cow is finished. If one speaks
to you, the milk streaming into your pail makes
so much noise you stop in order to hear; then
the milk, which began to flow so freely, goes
hack again into the ducts that supply the ud
der, and you use your opciortunity. Like the
sap of the maple, you must take it when it
flows, or its juices go to enlarge the tree: so
a cow, half milked, will gain inure flesh, at the
close of milking, in every direction, to be sure
you have all the milk; but do not spend a
long while in stripping lest you get the cow
into a lazy habit of-ekeing out the richest por
tion of her bounty.
In the morning, the cows should be driven,
gently, two or three times around the yard be
fore : they will yield more for the ex
erci,e, and they will be less likely to scatter
manure in the way to pasture. We have sel.
dom hired a good milker.- Females are better
than men : the y have more patience. A good
milker will obtain at least one.quarter more
cream than one that milks slowly. We have
often proved this : we hired, one summer, a
man from New Hampshire. who had managed
a farm several years: he was clever but ex
tremely moderate. We then had four cows in
milk, and discovered our slow milker wasfasf
drying up our cows: we concluded to give
him our aid, and let him milk only two. On
the first trial, he obtained the same quantity
that we did. In one week, we obtained one
quart more than he at milking. He said his
cows were not equal to ours : we then shifted,
and obtained, within nine days, more milk
from his cows than he did from ours. This
was wholly to be ascribed to his moderate
milking, fur he left none in' the odder.

This may or may not be the case, and it is not

JAYNE'S HAIR TONIC
We know Dr. Quigley personally, and there is no
man in the country whose opinion is entitled to more
respect. He is on all subjects honest and sincere, and
-his high character as a Physician can be attested by the
first meeical men in the city.—Philadelphia Sun.
Surritann's TOWN, Va., Oct. 10,1813.
DEAR Stn :—Yoir inquire of me whether I have used
your Hair Tonic, and with what effect.
Several years ago my hair began to fall rapidly from
the scalp, and I had the prospect of premature baldness.
At length a friend recommended your Hair Tonic. I
used three or four bottles, according to the printed direc
tions, and at the end of six months, my hair was thick
set, and since, its tendency to turn grey was arrested.
I have never before given a certificate, recommending
patent medicines, which indiscriminately use', as they
often are,do much injury; bat in a case like the present,
where I know the article to be beneficial, and that it can
do no harm, I have no scruples in stating facts within
my own knowledge. Your's, &c.,

Only 121 Ceuta a Number : The Penny Magazine,
A new and elezant edition if the reissue f the
PENNY MAGAZINE.
Tin POCCESS which the cheap edition of the Naar
MAGAzINE has met with, induces the Publisher
to comply with the earnest request of numerous gentle
men in various parts of the Union, to publish a new
edition, on finer paper, and in a mere elegant style.
The publisher; therefore, hereby announcas, that on
thefirst Saturday of July, 1846, he will issue the first
number of the fine edition of the
PENNY lIMMZEVE,
and regularly, thereafter, on the first and fifteenth of
every month, continue to publish the succeeding num
bers, until the entire work is completed.
The entire work will be published in 72 numbers or
parts, at the low price of
12i Cent.% per Number,
being at least one third less than the original price, and
when completed, will constitute eight very beautiful
and large imperial octavo volumes, of permanent value
and usefulness.
The London Penny Magazine. issued under the di
rection of the " Society for the diffusion of useful know
ledge," is unquestionably, one of the most entertaining
and oseful of •11 the popular works which has appeared
in any age, or in any language. Its pages embrace
every subject in the wide field_ of human knowledge;
and as every article, whether on Science. History, Bi
ography, Literature, or the Arts, passed the careful
scrutiny and - critical ordeal of e n able committee of
learned men. the work may be placed in the hands of
the youth of the country without danger or distrust.—
The popularity of the work in England may be judged
of from the fact that, during the first year of its publi
cation more than 80,000 copies of the monthly parts
were disposed of. The whole work consists of about
4,000 large imperial octavo pages, and is illustrated
by 2,000 engravings. The original cost:of Stereotyping
and Engraving. to the London Publishers, was $25;000.
cCr The Work is sold by all dealers in Books and
cheap Literature, throughout tne United States. Per
sons wishing to obtain it regularly on its issue, will do
well to hand in their names to some Bookseller in their
neighborhood., at as early a day is possible. The MU
al discount to the trade.
Cr Every Postmaster in the United States or the
Colludes is authorized to procure subscribers for this
beautiful and useful work. By remitting to the Pub
lisher ONE DOLLAR, they will receive TEN copies
of any number. The postage on each number will be
about four cents, so that persona in the country club
