Mr: J. flowlett i of Syracuse, -N.
writing frolEurope on a Dutch
dairy Awn, says: "After , feeding
the horses and resting a little While
we drove about. eight idles further
on to nue:ollm best stock andAairy
fence ;in Holland.: They used the
very isms . Midge at the farm that
they did in 'the "fourteenth century.
They have little tinge in the ceilings,
with cords paesing through them, by
which the cows' tails are held up to
keep thew from getting dirty. The
stable was carpeted, and had plants
and flowers in it. The floor of the
'fable was , of small- bricks. At the
k of the stalls was a trough of
Masonry about eight inches, wkle and
nine inches deep, with a ditch or
reservotr of water at .one end. As
soon as the trench was_dirtied they
turned on the water, and all the man-,
ure, etc., was carried' out to a cover
vat, whence it could be removed to
fields or wherever they wanted 'it
moved to. The cows • were as clean
if not cleaner than your horses. All
the fastening they have is a, little
cord around the necks, and they are
so gentle and - quiet that 'they don't
require any stronger. They • use
brass milk pads instead of wood or
tin ones. We , saw. the way they
make the round • cheere•ths,t are sent
to America. They have wooden
moulds in the shape of two hemis
pheres or half balls. These are-hol
low. and fit together. The cheese
curd is first roughly pressed into
shape and then placed in the moulds,
the lower half of the mould is sta
tionary, while the upper part is fast
ened to a kind of screw working in
a beam overhead; the upper half AS
I screwed down tight, and the cheese
is.lefelor a week. At the end of
a'sdeek it is screwed' down tighter
and left another week. ; At the end
1 of the third week" , the 'cheese is-ex
rimed to the air and the curing be
gins. It takes three months for a
cheese to be cured, and a year before
it is fit for the market. Everything
was as sweet and neat as' any parlor
ever saw ; the stables and stalls for
the horses were covered with matting;
You have no idea chow clean: every
thing was, without seeing how it
was done. They use the same kind
Of churns, the same kind of cheese
presses and the same kind of pails,
etc., that they did five hundred years
ago. They think that it is showing
disrespect to their ancestors to make
any improvement in the implements
that .their forefathers used. I in
quired ithe price of the cattle, and
fiaund the.cows cost from 200 to 350
guilders, and the bulls from 300

How to Make the Whitest Ma
ple Sugar.
_ -
A student of ntaple-sugar ntakiny
will find that a maple area has as
many grades (of 'color) of sap as it
is years old. ' The outside ring gives
the sweetest sap and makes the
whitest sugar, and of the best flavor,
while the inner ' reverse.
The
is the
The gradation is regular from one
to the -other. You will see,
theri,
that the older the tree thedarker
the sugar at the heart. The man
who wishes. to excel in making nice
and pure maple sugar (I mean the
Whitest possible) must follow three
rules : First, tap early through the
bark, and the first ring of the wood
(the last year's growth) of a second
with maple; second, keep the sap
from the moment it leaves the. tree
xcluded from atmospheric influence;
t ird, reduce to sugar in- the least
pOssible time. I cannot, conceive of
any.method or contrivance to reduce
sap into sugar quic,ker than the ledge
syste ' o
n\
f the evaporator,- and no.
Machin' can make white sugar from
,interior. ap. I_ am satisfied that the
outer ring \ will give us sap that can
be made hit° sumer- nearly as white

The Florida Orange Trade.
About 300,000 \ boxes of- oranges
have reached New\York 'season
from groves in-Florida. Their value
is estimated at 1 560,000. Ten years
ago not a boa was shipped to this
market. There were but few trees
in St. John's county. The planta
tion now cover the highlands in five
counties, a tract 400 miles lank by
twenty wide, and are fast enroacti
ing upon other lands in the southein
counties.
Soon after the late war Col. Den
net, brother-in-law of Oen. Hardy.'
author of " Hardy's Tactics," bought
a tract near Mosquito • Init, at the
bead of-Indian: River. He went to
Jainaica for his young trees. His
neighbors prophesied a failure. A
few . years afterward William Allen
who was in the commission business
in this city,' purchased many acres
on the Halifax River at $1.23 an
acre. :The neighbors told both - Den.
net and Allen that they might grow
millions of 'oranges, but they would
never get them to market. Mr. Allen
wrote to New York, and interested
steamship men sent him a light
draught steamer. They found it
profitable, as it was in the dull sea
son here. The next year competition
in carrying trade was brisk.—N. Y.
