Cares for Injured Cattle.
WASH FOB Worxus ON CATTLE. —Dissolve
one onuce of sulphate of zinc (white copperas)
in a quart of soft water, aud wash the wound
with this, morning and evening. It is an ex
cellent wash for common sores, l>ut for virulent
ulcers of long standing, the following is also '
an excellent and more jMiwerfnl wash : Sul-1
pliute of zinc, one ounce ; corrosive sublimate. I
one drachm, and muriatic acid (spirit of salt) j
four drachms—all dissolved in a pint of soft
water, and bottled for use. Apply it with a
sponge morning aud evening.
ON. FOB Worxns.—Take one pint of neat's
foot oil, and half an ounce of the oil of thyme :
mix them together and odd, by degrees, six
drachms of the oil of vitriol. These ingre
dients must, be well stirred in a glass or stone
ware vessei until they are perfectlyincorjxirat
ed, then bottled up for use. This is an excel
lent oil for bruises in the feet of horses and
oxen.
HOOK OINTMENT. —Take one pound each of
tar and tallow, and mix them with half a pound
of common turpentine in a stone-ware dish.—
Stir them well until they arc thoroughly incor
porated together. This forms an excellent,
dressing for the sore hoofs of horses and oxen.
THE EVE.— An excellent lotion for sore eves
in horses and eattle consists of sulphate of zinc
1 drachm ; tim turc of opium, 1 drachm ; in 1 j
pint of rain water. It should be applied with '
a clean rag three times daily.
HITTER. —WiII salt preserve butter ? No ;
that question is easily answered. Salt is ad
ded to butter for two reasons—one is to as
sist in its preservation, the dairy-woman vain
ly thinking that plenty of salt will keep the
butter sweet. Another set add salt with dis
honest motives, with the idea that all the salt
put in the butter is sold at the full price the
butter brings. It is a great mistake. Every
pound of salt put in butter over what is need- j
ed to give it flavor, instead of bringing a cash
return to the butter maker, proves a positive !
loss of twenty-live cents a pound, because it i
reduces the value of every pound of butter so j
oversalted, frequently us much as three cents
n |K)und. Gutter is not preserved by salt.— i
That is positive. It will keep just as long and
just as sweet as olive oil, without salt, if no j
other substance is incorporated with it. It is
the easeine of milk that spoils the butter, and
unless free from that, no art can keep it sweet, j
Gutter should be churned at t>"> deg., and im-!
mediately afterward reduced to 40 (leg., ailTl j
the less it is touched by human hands the bet- !
ter. It must be worked cool, either with or \
without washing, as that is a mooted question j
until absolutely free of buttermilk or j (articles '
of sour curd, and then just enough, and no
more, salt added to suit the taste of the con
sumer. The salt must be pure, and one ounce ,
to ten pounds of butter will be sufficient. Then
pack the butter solidly in any cask of sweet [
wood or stone pot, so as to exclude the air,
and just so long as the air is excluded the but
ter will remaiu sweet. If it could be kept
perfectly excluded, the period that it would !
keep sweet is forever. Your question is au-1
swered. Salt trill not preserve butter.
m
II ow TO MAKE Goon HI TTER. —A eorres
pondent of the Yf* Lapland Farmer furnish-j
os that paper with the following rules for mak
ing good butter :
1. Milk should never be set for butter in a j
dark, damp cellar—as is the case with butter
makers in this section—as the cream is there- 1
by moulded before it has had time to rise, which j
gives the butter a mouldy taste.
2. The milk is allowed to set too long be- ;
fore being skimmed, which gives it a cheesy
taste. 1
A. The cream is kept too long, before it is
churned, after it is skimmed, gives it the
taste of the other two ; and also a sour taste. ;
4. The butter should never be washed in 1
water, because it takes awav that beautiful t
aroma so essential to good butter.
o. It should never be taken in a person's
warm hands, as the heat melts a certain j>or
tion of the globules, which gives it an oily
taste, and makes it become rancid very soon.
i. The milk should be set in good clean tin
or earthen pans; in a dry, open, airy and sha
dy place, above ground, if possible, although
a cellar may be so built and ventilated, as to |
answer the purpose. It should never set over
twenty-four hours in warm weather ; and for
a dairy of three cows or over, the crtuiin should
be churned every morning, and nc.ver be kept
over forty-eight hours, in warm weather ; in
cold weather it may be kept longer.
It should always be about the same heat
that milk is when drawn from the cow, and
churned steadily, and I have never known it
to fail of coming readily ; (we use a cylinder
churn) it is then taken from the churn with a
wooden butter ladle, into a woodeu tray which
has been well scalded and cooled in pure cold
water ; the salt is then worked in, to suit tlm
taste, with the ladle, which is easily done, with
u iitt'.e practice, and the butter-milk well work
ed out ; it is then set away in a cool place
for about twenty-four hours, when it is well
worked over again, as long as milk or pickle
can be worked out. Hutter made in this way,
and put down in stone pots, and kept from the
ttir, will keep good for a long time.
To PRESERVE GOOSEBERRIES. —Take full
grown goosbcrries before thev arc ripe, pick
tlicm, and put them iuto wide-mouthed bot
tles, cork them gently with new soft corks,
and put them in an oven, from which the bread
has been drawn, let them stand till they have
shrunk nearly a quarter ; then take them out
and beat the corks in tight, cut them off level
with the bottle, aud rosin them down close.—
Keep them in a dry place.
GREEN GOOSEBERRY WINE. —To every pound
of fruit, one quart of cold water ; let it stand
three days. To every gallon of juice, when
strained, add three pounds common loaf sugar.
To every twenty quarts of liquor, one bottle of
brandy. Hang some isinglass in a bag in the
cask. When it has stood half a year, plug it,
and, if tin.' sweetness is gone off sufficiently,
bottle it. The gooseberries should be quite
green, though full grown.
GERMAN TOAST. —Take a small loaf baker's
bread a day old, and cut in slices an inch in
thickness, make a custard of four eggs, well
beaten, to a quart of milk, adding four table
spoonfuls of sugar ; soak the bread in the cus
tard uutil it becomes saturated ; then fry the
bread in fresh butter till nearly browu. Serve
with lemon sauce.
K>tt lcopj,, jr unities should be improved.

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
A\li
DIRECT k TO-& FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
TAMES HAHHIS, Ki.kctbician. of Towanda. respect
fully informs the public that hi- has lately procured
from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Bath,
which has proven to be one ot the most 'important and
wonderful discoveries of the age. from it- ability to extract
minerals from the human system.
Some eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from the body,
by gnU'iini-m ; more recently, M. Verge-, of New York,
an electro-giider. having suffered from the introductionnl
poisonous minerals into bis system in the prosecution of
ili- art. conceived the idea of removing them by the same
processes, he succeeded in doing so. and quickly recovered.
Me then applied tlie same mean- to others similarly af
fected, with like results. His success exceeded his most
sanguine expectations, for not only did these Bath-remove
mineral poisons, hut cured many disease*, some of which
•wen- the result of minerals, and some were not.
More recent experiments have fully continued the sin
gular power of this Bath to draw from the system all mi
neral- that may he bulged therein, to the great detriment
ot health. Very often persons are atilieted by diseases
which are beyond the comprehension ot the most skilful
physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine
ral- accumulating in the system tor years, taken in the
shape of calomel, haul, Ac. Ac.
The following arc some of the diseases cured by those
baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Pal-v. Painter's i'holic.
Chronic I'h-ers, (llandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer.
Ncnraiia in all its form-, Salt Hlieuiu ami Humors of all
kinds.
He ha- al-o S. It. Smith's new! v invented DIRECT AND
TO-A N D-FRO ELECTRO MA< 1N KT If MACHINE, which
is a great improvement on the Magnetic machine- hereto
fore in use. With the aid of the Bath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficiency of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is very
great, in introducing medicines into the system through
the pores of the -kin—applying it dire, tly to the part- af
fected, which gives an increase of medicinal power over
thatol taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
ly efficacious in all local diseases.
I am now prepared to apply these Baths, and al-o the
Machines, at my house in the stu*h part of the borough
of Towanda, or I will visit patients at a distance, who are
unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford cimntv. for the above
Machines. JAMES HARRIS.
