Milk is the most natural and common
food of man. ' Out of Milk Iwo other corn-
Oat, articles of food are obtained, viz. :
cheese and butter ; butter exists in the forth
of Very small gleibulesond out of 100 parts
of cow's milk, '3,73 parts of butter are ob
tained. Human milk contains about one
siith more butter than the above. Butter
is indebted to a substance called " butryne"
foie its fine flavor. Casein, the cheesey
matter of milk, if -not well removed from
the! butter, by working, soon putrifies, and
will.. give the butter a bad taste. Butter
doea . not appear to have been,known to the
ancients, at least so far as, history reveals
knowledge; but we can - not believe that
butter was unknowd to them for all this:
We read of ".a land flowing with milk and
honey," but no butter ; still this is not con
clusive against the reasonable conclusion
cliat.the old Hebrews did know, what it was.
The oldest hint, historically, is given by
Herodotus, who ascribes the use of it to
the Scythians. Hippocratus also alludes to
the Scythian butter, and recommends its
use. externally for medicine. In the time of
dalen, butter was known and used, but to
a . Very extent, among 'the Greeks
and - Romans ; in the second century -Pliny
ascribes the invention of butter to the'Ger
mans, but this only shows that the Romans
•became acquainte4 with it ihrough.the Ger
mans. It was much used as a pomatum
both by the - Greek and Roman ladies.
Pliny recommends it to be mixed with ho
ney and rubbed over the gums of children
to ease the pain of teething, and for ulcers
in the mouth—a hint that may not be use
less to us moderns. The Romans an nointed
the bodies of their children with butter to
make them pliable, and - it appears that they
did not know ,butter as we do, in firm
cakes, but only as a semi-fluid, like - th;ck
olive oil. This is not wonderful, owing to
the general Ayarmth of southern Italy.
Neither the Spaniards nor Portuguese know
much about butter, and the inhabitants of
Mexico seldom eat it. In the city of Mexico
-it costs one dollar per pound ; the most
Wealthy classes do not use so much of it
as the poorest amongst us ; in fact they do
not consider it an essential article of food—
we could not, to use a common phrase,
" live without it." It is justly believed that
more butter is consumed in the northern
States of Afnerica than in any other coun
try having the same amount of population !
in the world. The Hollanders are distin
guished for making good butter, so also are
the Northern Germans, Norweg ians, and :
Danes: The English, Irish, an Scotch,l
make and consume a great deal of butter,
especially the Scotch, who are, or at least
were, almost half Jewish in their feelings. ;
towards the use of pork and lard.
The great secret of making good butter,
is cleanliness and plenty of elbow grease.
In some parts of Ireland, but especially in
Devonshire, England, and Ayrshire, in'
Scotland, the butter made has had a world
wide
fanie. The plan pursued seems to be
for the dairy-maids to wash their under
standings, and perform the same operations
as the French and Portuguese-who dance
among the grapes at the wine press. By
having large tubs with false. bottoms, co
vered with clean coarse cloth, into which
the butter was placed and danced upon,
with water to wash it as much as is, required,
all the cheesey matter is pressed through
the coarse cloth and runs off with the wa
ter of cleansing. This is a most efficient
and effectual way of making butter for
packing. As a general thing, the kind
very common in our markets depends for
its weight in having a good deal of the milk
left. in it, and none of the cheesey.matter
pressed out"---it is a profitable way of pro
ducing it • for sale. Bunter from foreign
countries should be well tramped, or beat
and washed some way, and it should be
packed in a dish, placed in the inside of . a
larger , one, big enough to fill around it
with salt.
Rancid butter can be completely cured of
its bad taste and smell, by melting it in a
clean tin dish, adding some salaratus, and
strain it through a clean cloth. After this
it appears or a different farm ; it crystalizes
in soft round, crystals, and has no taste like
what it would_ have had, if made well at
at the first operation. All rancid . butter
for cooking should be treated this way ; it
Changes the butter, takes away the bad
smell, prevents it from spoiling again,
however long kept, and it really has a
beautiful appearance. The butter should
be kept stirred after it is all dissolved 'for.
about. ten minutes. One ounce of salaratus
will purify four, pounds of butter. A thick
sediment falls to the bottom, and a very
thick scum gathers on the top. Butter is
one of the finest articles of human food.
The farmer with his snowy white i bread
and beautiful holden butter for breakfast,
dines richer than the monarch to whom
those things are denied ;
Scientific American.
Posts Inverted.
It is.Uow generally believed that posts
will endure much longer If inverted, than
when ' set in their natural positidn. The
fact, it is said:" has not been satisfactorily
explained."
New it appears to me that the difficulty
in exlaining this, is the same with that of
explaining the circulation of the sap.• - the
mechanism, if any there be, in the green
tree, remains the same in the dry. In the
green - tree the sap ascends through the
poreker tubes, irk the wood, and descends
between the wood and bark. Hence, if a
post.be set in its natural position, the mois
tttre from the ground will ascend in the
same -way; if not on the same principle
that. the sap. ascended in the living tree.
Hence such a post will be found wet, or
moist, internallK.at some distance ebOve
the surface of the ground. If set in en in-
verted position} his will not often be the
case, (as the cire lation would be downward
instead of upwi rd.) Hence such a` post t
will generally b. dry within, even below
the surface of the ground. ' As moisture
hastens decay, the former must perish,
sooner than the latter.—Rural New Yorker.
Water may be forced through the capi.
lary tubes of_ a tree only toward its top.
On this principle th finer woods are some
times changed in c for for the use of -the
cabinet maker. A ole is bored in the side
of a tree, and a b nt hello' tube has one
of its ends driven !uto the ole, while the
!
other end of the tube is car led up nearly
the whole height of-}he tree. Any solution
may then be poured! into thi tube from the
top, and from the'pressure arising from the
height of the column, it will be forced into
the tree in an upward direction only, In
this way woods have been colored in France
while growing, and by the introduction of
solutions of metallic salts, they may be
rendered nearly imperishable by rot.
Posts should be placed in the ground
with the butts up; then bore a hole in the
butt, throw in a small quantity of corrosive
sublimate or common copperas, (sulphate of
iron) and drive in a plug of wood. If the
former be used, the centre tubes of' the
wood will become )-yanked, and be thus
rendered indestructible by rot and less lia
ble to crack or win ifthe latter, the posts
will last much longe r than when left wit.hout
such addition:
If posts be first raced with the ends'in
a tub containing a s lution of common cop
peras for a few days, and then in clear
lime water, the lim will be changed into
sulphate of lime asteceived info the wood,
thus leaving the capillary tubes of the
. vood
filled with plaster of paris, (sulphate of
lime) and their surfaces coated with oxide
of iron, precipitatld from the copperas.
Wood so prepared sill last many years
longer than if used in an unprepared state.

Poultry.
There seems to bend branch of domestic
economy less understood than profitably
raising poultry. When we say profitably
we du not speak .:)f their . Value in dollars
and cents, for we hold that every dwelling,
however humble or splendid it may be,
should have a few chickens around them ;
for there are times in almost every family,
both in sickness and health, when money
cannot buy the little luxuries that chickeQs
give us. What -profit is there in keeping
fifty or one hundred hens, without a Corre
sponding supply of eggs .? Most people
think that chickens must pick up their own
living, and yield a good supplypf eggs in
the bargain, but we have found tho chickens
forced' to roam for their dailyKood, have
little time and inclination to lay I and those
who expect a good supply of eggs without
generous feed, may as well plant their
choice vegetable seeds in a sandbank, and
look fur tender, delicious vegetables.
We have had some little experience in
the " henery," and have found tlie great se
cret irk getting a supply of eggs through the
whole season, but not in driving the hens
up hill, or in feeding them exclusively on
gravel, or in supplying them with chalk
nest eggs. The whole secret consists in
giving ' them plenty of food, grain and
flesh ; any of the grains will answer, as the
chicken's mill is very convenient. For
eight or nine months in the year the
chickens will supply themselves with animal
food in the shape of insects, but the rest of
the time, feed them regularly with flesh, as
well as corn. Boiled sweet potatoes is an
excellent feud for fowls, but with it they
want grain of some, kind, and flesh_also.
In our long, hot summers, poultry are in.
dined to become lousy ; lbut if clean, good
ashes are placed convenient to the hen
house, the hens will dust : themselves in them
until the vermin disappear.. Nature is their
teacher, and hers is anfnnirrine, guide. A
good shelter should be provided for the
chickens to roost undet ; the manure
ex
penses
chickims properly saved, will repay all
of feeding. It is a great error to
crowd too many chickens together.
We know nothing ° of
the patent chicken
hatching machines,but',we know that fifty
hens will lay more eggs and raise more
chickens upon one lot or enclosure, than
will one hundred. They.do not flourish in
a crowded state, neither will hens lay as
well when great numbers ace together. A
hen is a right prudish old, lady, and affects
great Modesty in selecting her nest and lay
ing her eggs, always taking a quiet, sly
place when it can be found. We say then
to our readers, keep no more fowls than
you can and will feed well. Provide good
shelter for them, save all the manure, and
your gardens will pay in their increased
productiveness, for all your culture of
chickens, - and then when beef. resembles
sole leather, .and bacon becomes stale,
young.chickcns and fresh eggs will prove
luxury indeed.—Soil. the South.

STONE LDIE.-100 bushels of Stone Lime

F HE subscriber would respectfully inform the farmers and housekeepers of Tioga county, that he
has the exclusive right to sell the above unrivalled and celebrated cook stove in this and the ad
joining counties of Potter and McKean.
Eight hundred of the above Stores have been sold during the past year in the counties of Bradford,
Susquehanna and * Wyoming, Pa., and all, without exception, have given the very best satisfaction.
The Improved Clinton Air-Tight Stove is beyond a question the most durable and the very best
FARMER'S COOK STOVE in America. It is constructed without an inside plate, or an inside
damper, and also without a fire-back ."Fhe Stove warms up quickly with as moderate an amount of
fuel as is desirable; the fire chamber :s commodious, and has an additional one for fine fuel and chips,
for summer use. The oven is very'large, and bakes in the greatest perfection; the working surface
is ample, and it has an excellent broiling hearth 'without the annoyance of grate's. In short, it pos
sesses in an eminent degree, every necessary convenience, without departing from the simplicity in its
construction and arrangements, that should be a striking characteristic 'of a Good Cook Stove ; and
which departure from simplicity is the almost universal feature of Low Oven Motes. Persons wishing
to purchase a Good Cook Stove, should by all means examine the Clinton Air-Tight, before purchasing.

Pepsin is the chief clement, or great digesting
principle of the Gastric Juice. It is found in great ,
abundance in the solid parts of the human stomach ,
after death, and sometimes causes the stomach to
digest itself or eat itself up. It is also found in
the stomach of animals, as the ox„ calf, &c. It is
the material used by farmers in making cheese,
called Rennet, the abet has long been the special
Wonder of the Dairy. The curdling of milk is
the first process of digestion. Rennet possesses
astonishing power. The stomach of a calf- will
curdle nearly one thousand times its own weight
of milk. Baron Leibeg states that, "One part of
Pepsin dissolved in sixty thousand parts of water,
will digest meat and other food." Diseased stomachs
produce no good Gastric Juice, Rennet or Pepsin.
To show that this want may be perfectly supplied,

DIGESTION.
Digestion is chiefly performed in the sto mac h
by the act of a fluid which freely exudes from
inner coat orthat organ, when in a state of health
called the Gastric Juice. The Fluid is the great
Solvent of the food, the purifying, preserving, and
stimulating agent of the stomach and intestine=,
Without it there will be no digestion—no conver
sion of food and blood, and no nutrition of the
body; but rather a foul, torpid, painful, and de
structive condition of the whole digestive tppara.

duces no gooSG_astric Juice, and hence the disease,
distress and debility which ensue.
PEPSIN AND RENNET,
Baron Lcibeg, in his celebrated work on Animal
Chemistry; says : " An Artificial Digestive Fluid
may readily be prepared from the mucuos mem
brane of the stomach of the Calf, in which various
articles of food, as meat and eggs, will be softened,
changed and digested, just ih the same manner as
they would be in the human stomach."
Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise on "Food and
Diet," published by Wilson & Co., New York,
page 25, states the same great fact, and describes
the method of preparation. There arc few higher
authorities that Dr. Pereira. .
Dr. John W. Draper, Professor of Chemistry in
the Medical College of the University of New
York, in his " Text Book of Chemistry," page
386, says, " it has been a question whether artifi
cial digestion could be performed—but it is now
universally admitted that it may be."
Professor Dunglison, of Philadelphia, in his
great work on Human Physiology, devotes more
than fifty pages to an examination 'of this subject.
His experiments with Dr. Beaumont on-the Gastric
Juice, obtained from the living human stomach
and from Animals are well known. "In all cases,"
he says, " digestion occurred as perfectly in tho
artificial as in the natural digestiOns."
AS A DYSPEPSIA CURER.
, Dr. Houghton's . preparation of Pepsin has pro
duced the most marvellous effects, curing cases of
Debility, Nervous Decline, and Dyspeptic Con,
surnption, supposed to be on the very verge of the
grave. It is impossible to give the details of cases
in the limits of this advertisement—but authenti
cated certificaics have been given of more than
200 REMARKABLE CURES
In Philadelphia, New York, and Boston alone.
These were nearly all desperate cases, and the
cures were not only rapid and itonderful, but pe ,
manent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and from the
astonishingly small quautitY necessary, to procure
healthy digestion, is believed to act upon.
ELECTRO-MAGNETIC PRINCIPLES !
There is no form of old StoMach Complaints
Which it does not seem to reach and remove at
once. No matter how bad they may be, it give
instant relief! A simple dose removes all the un- ,
pleasant symptoms, and it only needs to be repeat,
ed, for a short time, to make these. good effects
permanent. Purity of Blood and vigor of body
follow at once. It is particularly excellent in cases
of Nausea, Vomiting, Cramps, Sorenesg of the pit
of the Stomach, distress after eating, low, cold,
state of the Blood, Heaviness, Lowness of Spirits,
Despondency, Emaciation, Weakness, tendency to
Insanity, Suicide, &c.
