Jesus! the smiling scene around,— Owns not a spot of barren ground— So shall my soul, if thou be there, Fruits of the finest flavor bear. Sow the blest seeds of grace divine, Anil thou, dear sun, arise and shine, Ripen the crop, new strength impart, -And-reap-a harvest in my heart. .. _ BUTTER. Butter forms an important item in the produce of the farm, as well' as the necessaries for the table. It is of the utmost importance to the farmer who resides near a large town to establish his reputation for bringing to market fine Butter. Having been acquainted with the course pursued by some eminent dairy-men and women who preserve their butter through the season fine .and fresh, we give the following directions: let. Let your t dairy room . be kept cool, and not only the room but every utensil used in it be kept from any rancid, sour, or __,unoeasant _meth "' • 2d. Let the , milk with the cream be put in the churn as boon as sour, before any p ull) fermentation takes place. . Butter is found to be of better flavour when churned with the milk, than when the the cream is churned separately. Let the churning be - einitinued until 'the butter is well coltectdd, after which it should be ta- ken out with a ladle and set it in a cool place to harden; it should then be worked • over with a ladle until perfectly freed from the buttermilk. In no part of the progress should the butter be touched with the hands, but handled entirely with ladle and paddles. In hot weather it is sometimes worked with paddles in clear cold water, which assists in extricating the buttermilk. After the but-, ter has been worked a sufficient time to give it, as the dealers say, a "good grain," salt it-moderately 4 If to cacti pint of salt 1 oz. of fine sugar be added, it improves the flavour. • If the butter is designed to be ta ken soon to market, let it be worked in small cakes of half and one pound each, handsomely marked or stamped and put by in a cool place, and taken to market in the morning. But if it is designed to be kept • -om_let..-it—be—packed_in—a. firkin and set by in a cool place for a few days, when the butter will be found to have shrunk frum the sides of the firkin: the head should be put in, and through a whole bored in it, the cavity should be tilled with strong brine, the hole stopped, and the firkin4e _versed; after which the butter will cleave from the head which was at the bottom, and becouie quite surrounded with a streak of brine; in which situation it may be kept sweet through the season.L Genmee Farmer. WOOL.--The - Poughkeepsie (N. Y.) Journal mentions that the competition a ' mong wool-buyers l 4lfitinues with unabated spirit in that county. The greater part is already engaged, and the rest daily 'pa.ssing into the hands of the manufacturer or specu lator. Before the end of the month it is lhopglit that none will remain in the first hands, and it is estimated that upwards of 100,000 lbs. of different qualities. have al ready,been taken in' by the different pur- N. chasers in Poughkeepsie, besides large • "quantities bought by .persotis,, residing-in different parts. of the countyi-and by manu facturers and speculators from abroad. One house in Poughkeepsie had taken in about 40,000 lbs. and would probaly swell this. amount to 100,000 lbsi . "The.following" says the Journal, ".stay be - quoted as the present price of wool in our market, viz : 50 to 58 cts. for native wool; 62 ,to cts. for merino; 80 bo 90 cts. for mixed and full blood Saxony. We saw-one beautiful lot i. last week, the shearing of a gentlenian of d o As tng o a tut- ...I i s. of which one third was merino, 'and 'the resi- due mixed and full blood gaxotty, which .hasv,since been sold limVo cts. all round cash.
