FARM AND FIRESIDE Dalr) iof* rallad?. T.**H. HOSKIXS, M. D. There have been great advances in the stud}' of the seien tifies of dairyiig, during the last ten years. Large credit is due to a number of enterprising men, whe have devoted both money and, time to the investigation of milk and its products, ami also to improving the methods of breeding, foeding, and handling dairy stock. If I were dis* posed to criticise anything these inves? tigators have dene, it would be the haste some of them have shown to be? come instructors before acquiring a mastery of their subject. To this we owe much buiklibg with 'untetupered mortar' that has not endured ; and, worse than that, the diffusion of erro? neous notions among the people, harder to be overcome than a simple, teach? able ignorance. Anxious to avoid the fault myself, and yet desirous to point out what I am thoroughly convinced arc serious errors, I shall touch briefly in this article upon Sviuie important practical points which have been mis-stated and misundcr? stood, and about which the popular mind is yet adrift. I do this with some reserve, and only after more than fifteen years of practical study, joined to careful closet investigation of bo tit, the chemical and physical sides of the ques? tion. The public arc often at a loss to decide, where 'doctors' and 'professors' disa?rcc; yet I believe that I shall make the points I touch upon sufficiently plain, and shall support my statements such good reisous, that most intelli? gent and well-experienced practical dairymen will agree with my conclu? sions. Alii IX CREAM. Fog some time it was thought (and el.urns to carry out the principle were introduced) that tbe passage of air into tlie cream during the process of churning promoted the separation of the butter. This idea is now exploded, and the churns are found only in garrets.. I allude to it merely to show, in the light of what will be hereafter stated, how far away from any true conception of the facts the minds of many must ,have been when such a theory could have had currency, ~ ?WHtHKS IN THE CREAM. Not unfrequently the correspondence columns of [agricultural journals con? tain queries headed, 'Why Don't the Butter Come?' or something equiva? lent, in which the writer details the pain? ful efforts of hours, and even days, over a lefractory chornful of cream.? Most inexperienced persons meet with this trouble; and not a few, also, who have made a good deal of butter, and made it well, when all natural con* unions were favorable. The idea ex? pressed by some that the cream was 'bewitched,' is the last resort, the world over, fot the explanation of un c?otapt*ebcadod natural phenomena. It is only in the clear white light of science (knowledge) that the witch becomes totally invisible. She and the ghost are alw a vs best seen in the dark. TEMPERATURE IS SETTING. As lately as seven orjeight year* ?go it was the universal teaching that proper temperature for setting milk was in the vicinity of CO0. The best authorities agreed that at a higher temperature the i nflk would become sour before all the cream would come to the surface, while at a lower temperature It would never rise at all. When the Swedish method of setting in ice-water was first reported in America, it could hardly obtain serious aotice. so contrary was the received, notions. .Now, it has been abundantly demonstrated that cream swims fo the surface soonest in milk cooled nearly to ..-?point of great density, or about 40?. This is, in itself, a great advance,? probably the greatest single step that bog been made in butter-dairying. Yet it woo not made by Professor, but was blundered upon in practice. 'IHK "CURRENT" THEORY. Some minds have a ?great londuese for najstifyiog plaiu matters. If one should see a quantity of apples goiug over a waterfall, it would never occur to him that when these apples reached the still water below it would be neces? sary to "create currents" in the pool before tlie fruit would float to the sur? face. The fact that apples are lighter than water would be considered a sum ? dent reason why they should float upon it ; and ?s it is a rule alike of philoso? phy and common sense that wlieu we lave a perfectly satisfactory reason for any occurrence, it is folly to seek lor any other, we should never think of a "current" theory. Having ocular evidence that a current submerged the apples. and that they came to the sur? face where the current abated, wc should tii-lied. Now, tlie bntter globule, though 11 i.? too small to be seen by the f.kcd eye, to to the milk in which it swims what the apples in the case sup? posed were to the water. If we keep the milk in a state of agitation they do not rise : if the milk is at rest, and just in proportion as that rest is perfect, they swim to the top. The most rapid separat ion of cream takes place in that apparatus where the milk is quickest re? duced to Iho proper temperature and most rigidly held there. Whenever you hear one of these "current" theo? rists holding forth, you will always lind that he has a "new patent setting can" in the ante-room, which ho would like to show you. Remember the oir cliurns, and eschew him. THE ANIMAL OIK>B. That the best butter is now made from cream raised in closed, and even in submerged cans, is what the boys call "a sticker" to those gentlemen who have long and learnedly held forth upon the pernicious "animal odor" in milk, which required the an?et careful ventilation to bo rid of, and which ab? solutely ruined the flavor and keeping quality of the butter when retained. "Various ingenious way? of getting around the stubborn fact aro resorted to. It is hard indeed, after having ex* plained bow tbj? "ikIqi" originates,! I what its chemical formula probably i and how it looks or would look win isolated, to find it disappear, all once, like a will-o'-the-wisp. LN'odou there are "stinks" in milk,butuodouli also, they arc got there from filthy hi. and teats, filthy hands, foul air, ai the like. Pure healthy milk has not ing in it that needs to lie removed I ventilation. Ventilate your cow stable keep your cows cleau, give them go< food and pure water, keep yourself ai your surroundings clean while handln the product, from the udder to tl butter-tub, and you will never be troi bled with the "'animal odor," Aneth ghost has been laid, another "witch has disappeared. WASHING BUTTKR. a\buudant experiment has shown thi the natural flavor of butter cannot Ij removed by washing it with pure wate Careful manipulation, with the cr?ai and everything else just right, will mal good buttsr without washing. But tl extra troublo is wasted. THK "UKAI.N" OF BTJTTEX. When the butter baa "come," an appears in little irregular mass?e, froi a piu'shead to alarga pea in size, the tiaie to draw oil' the buttermilk an wash the butter in the churn. This re moves most of th? buttermilk. Aftt being then gathered and removed froi the chum, werked, washed aud salle on the butter-worker at the proper ten pcrature, we fiud upon beaking it, thi it has a granular look. The mai seems to be made of little pari a slightly glistening appearance. Thi is called the "grain." Tin particles are partially kept apart t tilm? ef water, (after salting, this wati becomes brine1), aud the peculiar tcx ture thus imparted to the butter is test of proper manufacture. Ovcr-chun or ovar-work it, churn or work it at th wrong temperature, and the grain i gone, never to be restored ; aud with i is gone a large percentage of the selllnj value of the butter. Enough wate (brine) must be retained to produce tin: appearance, with distinguishes "butter' from "grease." Consequently thi mest perfect grain is obtained by wash ing in the the churn before the butter ?i ?'gathered." THE BUTTER GLOBULE. To these whe know nothing of th< micrescope aud its revelations, a worli remains hidden ot which they can ban little comprehension. To the nakci eye milk appears a smooih. uniforu fluid. To the eye aided by the combi nation if magnifying glasses, called i "microscepe." (sser ef little things), i is a translaceut fluid, in which floats : multitude of shining globes, and thesi globes are butter in its primitive state We do not make butter when wc churn although we say so. When the pro cess of churning has becu continuel until we can see little particles of buttei in the cream, we say "ike butter hai ceme," and the next proceeding (alte: washing) is to "gather it." But. ii reality, churning isa single process There is no difference between tin "coming" and the "gathering," excep that the latter is visible, while the ?ai? mer is invisible to the unaided sight All that we do when we agitate crean in a chum is to throw the lutter glo? bules strongly against each other. 1 the cream is too cold, we may do tbil forever and produce no butter, for tht same reason that we cannot work but ter into rolls, or prints, when it is to? celd. The globules are too hard U stick together. They merely rattle against one another in the churn, like peas in a bag. If the cream is toe warm , we can churn them together and then chum them apart again, because they are in too fluid a state to hold to? gether against the action of'tha churn, So po butter comes in cither case there are "witches in the cream." Thi true exercist, in such trouble, is a thcr ?meter. MOKE MYSTIFICATION. The mystifier?? have held high carni? val on the butter globule. Nearly all of them (I do not kuow an exception among dairy'professors') declare that it has a shell, (as the German philoi created aa elephant, 'out el the depths of his moral consciousness'), they have as much trouble with it as they had with the'animal ?dor.' Some tell us that the creaai must bo kept until acidity is dsvelaped, in order to weaken the shell. One has said that the churn must he sc constructed as to have a grinding ac tion upon the cream, for the same pur? pose. A good many have seen the shell, net only upon the globule, bul after it has been ruptured and the butter has escaped. They describe it as accurately as they described the "yellow oil.'or as the old lady described the ague which the doctor made her throw up with a dose of lobelia, sin- Baid il ?looked for all the world like the yelk of an egg.' And yet we kuow that wc eau make butter as easily from sweet'eream as from sour. Wie can nuke butter as quickly by ?.haking cream in a plain pine box as when agitated With the most scientific dasher ever invented. Wc know thai at the right temperature we cannol carry a bottle of cream a few milt s in a wagon-box without finding butter there at the end of our journey, So, far. we have common sense ternit inaccurate science. If we go further, we shall find thai while 20 years a^-o all physiologists thought they could see a mi ml,: the little globule (and nothing is mere easv than to deceive one's sell' on this point in uning an imperfect instrument or a good one unskillfullv,) -now, more than half ol thosr who bare - the question with ability, declared it to benaketl. It is really a difficult qncs tion to decide. lioth Optically, with the microscope, and by the m chemical tests the highest manual skill and the best mental ability arc re? quisite in the determination of this ftp parently simple problem. Hut tin wri? ter hopes he may say, without egotism, that thoigh 'only an ordinary M, J). and farmer,' he liften years ago, ami several times since, has repeated, with [many variations, a great variety oj tests, both on the optical and chemical side of this 'membrane' question, ami concluded each time with a firmer con? viction that the butter globules swim :lare naked' in the serum of the milk, requiring forcible contact only, at the right temperature, to cause them to ad? here to each other and form batter. Whe? he began this study, he was Bot aware that a single prominent scien? tist held any other view than that the butter globule had an envelope. Now, he is happy in finding the majority upon his tide ; and he looks, in a few years, to see the point demonstrated, by some ' ' Ingeni?os experiment, so that there can be no longer any dispute. Practically, It la akeoay proved, since the practice of the dairy would not be at all modi fledby the demonstration referred to. [to.operations are conducted exactly as though no envelope exists, and with i results. Home D?pariaient.
