,IVAsnixir BE:rm.—We doubt the utility of wash
ing butter in cold water. 'There is in butter, prop
erly made from good cows, in. the best of feed, a
peculiar rich aroma and flavor, which is we think
in some measnre, washed away by the use olcolil
viater. We know that a thousand evidences may
be brought forward to justify washing --in the shape
of dutch butter, and good productions throughout
the country. But we want sometimes more than
good butter. We want extra fine. Sinue say but
ter is an oil, and water will not disolve it. But
what evidence have we :Cat. the fine savor of
butter consists in oil ? We have seen butter that
had-all the peculiar properties of oil and grease
and yet, so far from having a delightful savor, it
had the contrary, and if used for crackers ; as is of
ton the" custom with bakers, the rrlor was apparent
in them, on %vetting them in Warm water. .Water
will surely extract the fine flavor of butter, as has
been shown by putting balls of butter in salt water
for preservation. It becomes insipid, and we have
no doubt that washing trotter has the same affect
only less frorin the traisient operation. The finest
botti.r that we ever tasted was well made without
washing in water, and it wax-. sornetitnes ke i g in
the condition one year, and Et ith no other preserva
live but salt.
ECONOMME Toes A.llrs.EyerimetA instituted
by several of our intelligent and enterprising
tural friends the past reason, have already mid
irrefragably demonstrated the important fact, that
ashes are an efficient mill enduring fertilizer. In
order however, to obtain the greatset possible bene
fit from their application, they should never be ap
plied alone, but with a mixture nt lime in its cau
stic state, " as that mineiel is endued with•capacity
of rendering the alumina tart in the soil, or leach
ed ashes soluble in water . and thus preparing it for
a facile absorbtion by the spongeoles or minute
terminal fibres of the roots of plants:' By combin
'Mg alumina, the bads of clay, says Dr. Lee, lime
leubates these alkalies and silicaties which, uniting
Chemically, form soluble silicates of Potash and soda.
We have long been convinced of the high value of
ashes, both unleashed and leached, as a manure,
and have applied them ourself with sig
s nal success to almost every description of field crop
and on almost every variety of soil, from the heavy,
ponderous, tenaceous days. to the light, arid and
adust sands. As a top dres,:ing for grass lands we
know of no manure equal to it. Mixed with gyp
sum, and hydrate of lime, in the proportion of one
third each it constitutes a mo-t excellent manure for
potatoes. That our farmers should dispose of their
asheslor twelve or fifteen cents the bushel, is to us
surprising.—Maine,Curivator.
The . editor of New York Tribune well says:—
"0 it is sad, it is sickening. to remark how few
farmers' sons really love the vocation of their lath
ers, delight in following and glory in the hope of
improving and adorning it! Seeing little of fa: m.
ing life but its drudgery and its =intellectuality,
nearly every one who has a soul above breaki.tg
colts and skinning woodchucks is off to the village
or the city at the very first chance—they all jump
at a chance to measkre tape at five dollars per
month, and lodge thrle-deepin a seven-by nine
garret, or to crucify Blackstone afresh in any low
pettifogger's den in any corner of the wide world.
How many of them do you suppose are now ap
plying, waiting, longing: coaxing, solicit ng for some
chance—they hardly: rare what—to break away
from the drudgery of the paternal hoine, iu the
assured conviction: that a farmer's life and thorough
mental cultivation are incompatible! This is the
vital error we would demolish, by disseminating the
truth that in no vocation is scieutitic knowledge and
mental elevation more desirable or more useful than
that'of the fanner."
CAPABILITIES OP A GRAIN OF WHEAT.—Few are

capable of subdivision many times, orare acquaint.

root will after having ripened many ears of coin
again vegetate and produce ears of corn a second

of my experiments for the past twenty yars. Re

and makes the lungs sound again,
Rev. Henry Jones, 108 Eighth avenue, was cured of
cough and catarrhal affections of 51 years standing. The
