This churn has other advantages over the com- 
mon kind, that have not yet been mentioned. It can 
be filled nearly full, and used even without a cover, 
and yet none of the milk will dash out of it. In 
these respects the other is very deficient, less neat, 
and considerably troublesome. When the milk is 
churned together with the cream, as the practice is 
where butter is made of the best quality and in the 
cleanliest manner, these advantages arc of impor¬ 
tance, as will be readily perceived v/ithout further 
explanation. I have now only to add, that 1 have 
superintended the construction of such a drill 
churn in a friend’s dairy, and have attended to its 
operation ; that it fully answers every purpose on 
which I had calculated, and that it was supposed 
to separate the butter from the milk more com¬ 
pletely than the ordinary method of churning. 
While on this subject, it may not be amiss to 
take notice of the Whip Churn. I am induced 
to this by finding that it is not so generally known as 
I had supposed it to be ; for although I have known 
it in use from my earliest days, and now know 
families who have not been without it for SO years, 
I have lately seen it advertised as a new invention, 
for which an exclusive right has been obtained by 
patent. 
The chum, churn-stick and dasher, are in every 
respect of the common kind. Its distinction is de¬ 
rived altogether from the manner of w'orking it^
