ken out and laid in it ; when tKe churn is to be placed so that the 

 faucet is a little off the edge of the table, and directly over a vessel, 

 into which the buttermilk is to be drawn. This being done, the but- 

 ter is immediately worked — this working being done in the churn ; 

 meanwhile, the faucet should remain open, and the back end of the 

 churn be slightly elevated, by placing some small object under it, 

 which will cause the remaining buttermilk to drain off as fast as it 

 is worked out. The butter should then be taken out, and the churn 

 immediately cleaned — which may be done chiefly by means of the 

 dash, used as in the act of churning — provided that plenty of water 

 be used, and the crank be turned with sufficient speed. When dry, 

 the churn can be put under some shelf or table, entirely out of the 

 way. 



It may be added, that this churn has been used in several of the 

 best dairies of the county, during the present season ; and has uni- 

 formly given entire satisfaction. 



The claimant is about to obtain a patent for the invention ; after 

 which the churn will be manufactured and kept constantly on hand 

 for sale, at his residence, near Keeseville.
