Such were ihe returns from a lot of cows that cost 

 j^20 a liend. 



Mrs Bush pursued the oUl fashioned way, by skim- 

 ming her millt and churning the cream, and our friends 

 in Itliaca preferred her butter to any other brought to 



tliat market. 



We have tried the method of making butter in winter 

 by healing the milk in the pars^ after straining, to 130 

 Fahrenhcrt thermometer; the quality is a little improv- 

 ed, the quantity more, and the labor of churning is less 

 than one half the time required in the old way. 



The washing of buiter in cold hard water or soft, 

 when taken from the churn, wo think injurious to the 

 quality of it, and takes from it that peculiar flavor which 

 we so highly prize. If you think the above statements 

 will be useful, let the.m find a place in your Genesee 

 Farn^er. LEWIS BEKRS.
