According to tho compulations of M. Marlborough, of the Geographical and Statistical Society of Paris, the amount of salt contained in the waters of tho various oceans and salt seas of the globe would bo groater in mass thau the land, so far as it extends above the surface of the waters. Tho seas covor seveuty-threo per cent, of the earth's surface, estimated at 0,200, 000 square miles. Tho percentage of salt is tbo same ut nil depths. Assum ing that the average depth of all seas and oceans is but a haif mile (it ia probably more than twice that) then there ure not less than 3,400,000 eubio miles of sea water ou tho globe. Thousands ol tests of sea water have recently been made, and as a result of these ditl'erent analyses it is now posi tively kuowii that a cubic mile of sea water contains nt least twenty-tiro kilograms of salt. This being tho case, we lind that tho total amount of salt contained iu 3,400,000 cubic miles of sen waters on the globe would bo equal to 85,000 cubio miles cf pure distilled salt. Years ago Baron Hum boldt declared that tho suit in the waters of our oceans, could it be ex tracted, would make a globe larger thau the moon. wins rovr.n ron fekd r.ox. poultry netting is fitted into the wire rectangle.

BEPAllATINO CKF.A1I V.lXII COLD WATER. Butter made from cream raisod in submerged cans has not that delicacy of flavor of butter from cream raised iu open caus, and is readily detected by a critical observer. A method is fast coming into uso which is simple, inexpensive, a saving of ice and labor, roduccs tho cost of making butter oua-hulf, preserves the quality cf tho open caus, and saves time ns well ns tho mechanical sepa rator, without its expense. Tho milk warm from tbo cow is in Lot weather strained into a can or vat till it is halt ililod; iu cool weather two-thirds or three-quarters full. Then rill tho can or rat with cold water, which aerates the milk and immedi ately roducos tho temperature to about teventy degrees F. even iu tho warm est weather and without ice. All of tho crecru will then rise to tho surface iu two hnuri and is about the consist ency ot that which comes from tho me chiinieal separators. The combined milk nnd water is drawn by a faucet from thu bottom of the can or vat till tho cream appears, whnh is then drawn into a separato vessel. As tho cream is separated in two hours tho cnu or vat used for the morning's milk is ready to bo used for tho night s milk. All that need go in to the houso is tho sweet, fresh cream, thus lightening tho labor there. The diluted skim milk is fed to the pigs, the costly butter fat extracted lrom it being replaced by tho chenper fat iu corn meal in such proportions as aro needed to feed to growing or fattening stock. No time is lost and no power or labor required by the di luto process. As soou au tho milk is mixed with tho cold water, the separation goes on naturally while the farmer may bo at teudiug to other duties. In this way farmers can manufacture their supply into butter for a time and regulate tho supply of milk sent to market end br co operation control the price, iu ron. thy not!.;.
