ITEMS We invite cmmun4oationfromailveronxiho are tntcretteil in matter! properly belonging to thi aepartmenu How Teaches are Canned. .f.i A correspondent describing a Mary land peach-orchard and the canning of the fruit snysv r ; ; - ; Tbo'Ordhard comprises 1013 acres, the greater part of the tree being in full bearing. 'The canning establishment is in the corner of the orchard ; t and from it there is nothing to be seen on every hand but; peach-trees. 'g The wagons fis they come in from the orchard, stop and unload; , the baskets are- passed up to hands who take the yellow peaches into the upper story of ono house and white ones to the other. The internal arrange ment of both houses is the same, and tho processes in both are ' identical. ' The paring is all done by bond; various machines have been tried, but none have yet been found , to. work satisfactorily. Some five hundred woman and girls ore eugaged in the establishment, the majori ty of'jhcM in paring. ; The frait is hajved, and the stone removed, and then pared. Under-sized fruit, and that which is too soft, is thrown aside, to be used as " pie fruit." The woman are paid six cents a bucketful lor paring, atid in this as in other steps of the process the accounts are kept by the use of checks. The peaches are passed through an opening to tho floor below, where it goes'jnto hopper like receptacles, from which it is tilled into the cans. As fast as the cans are filled they go to an inelined platform, which stands by the sido of a tank of hot syrup, which is at a strength to make the fruit sweet enough for tho ' table about a pound of sugar to. the gallon.. The syrup is ladled into the cans, allowing it sufficient time to fill all the spaces among tho fruit. The cans are then washed und wiped, to remove the syrup, the cover plac ed on, and passed over to tho tinsmiths. The soldoring is done very rapidly ; each cover has a slightly turned edgo, which drops into a groove in the top of the can ; one sweep 'of the soldering-iron around this groove effectually closes the can. The covers have a small hole punched in tutpeote'r j this is tp allow the escape of the air, which is "expanded by the heat of soldering.. . When the cover is secured,' this little ; vent-hole is closed by a drop of. 'solder. Tho tinsmiths, work by the hundred, and make, according to their skill, from eight dollars to twenty dollars a day. Some very rapid workori have been known to make as much as iurty dollars a day. Alter the soldoring the cans are placed upon a circular iron rack, which is raised by a crane and lowered into a circular vut of water, which can be rapidly brought to boiling by turn ing ou steam. The cans being immersed, the heat of the water is gradually raised. The boiling is continued until the fruit is thoroughly cooked through, when the rack is raised from the vat and the cans taken to the storehouse. Labeling and packing in cases is done later . in the season. Over-ripe and small peaches are canned without paring. They are put up in largo cans, and sold to bakers, hotels, etc., as pie-fruit. Preserving the Flavor of Butter. Tho German Agriculturist says that A great portion of flavor of fresh, butter is destroyed by the usual mode of washing, and it recommends a thorough kneading for the removal of the buttermilk, and a subsequent pressing in a linen cloth. Butter thus prepared, according to our authority, is pre-eminent for ita sweetness of taste and flavor, qualitiei whioh are re tained a longer time. ' To improve man ufactured butter we are advised by the the same authority to work thoroughly with fresh, cold milk, and then, to wash iu clear water, and it' is said that even rancid butter may be rendered palatable by washing it in water td which a few drops of a solution of chloride of lime has been added. . . ." Keeping Cider. 'MY'.' Sulphato of lime has been used for this purpose, but it imparts an unpleasant fla vor. , The best, way is, after the fermen tation has ceased, to rack , the ' cider off into1 clean barrols, ;and; keep Hem full and in, a cool place. Cfider cannot , wqll be,lept upon draught and remain sweet unless used up very rapidly. A partly filled barrel has a large surface of the liquid exposed to the air and it will sour or become 't hard in a short time. ' The surest way is to bottlo the eider. Certain Core for Ear-Ache. As soon as any soreness is felt in the ear, let three or four drops of the tincture of arnica be poured in, and the orifice fill ed with a little cotton, to exclude the air, and in a short time' the uneasiness is forgotten. If tho arnica be not resorted to till there is actual pain, the cure may not be as speedy, but is, just as certain, although it may be necessary to repeat the application. It is a sure preventative fjf gathoring in the ear, which is the usual causes of ear-ache. .r.i-.i -i i .-, Dgs,5!1;;D.i:gsJ tr ..f- J- 1 !..
