FARM DAIRYING 



In summer many town customers prefer getting 

 their butter in five-pound stone jars or crocks, as 

 they are handy to keep in a refrigerator, and the 

 butter stands transportation from the farm to the 

 customer better than when in prints, especially if 

 it has to be taken a long distance in the heat. 



BRINE FOR KEEPING BUTTER 



If one has on hand quite an amount of butter 

 in rolls or prints for home use, it will keep much 

 better if put in a strong brine. Use a cup of salt 

 to two quarts of boiling water. When the brine 

 is cold put the butter in it in a crock, and put a 

 plate on top to weight the butter down.
