THINGS WORTH KNOWING. During summer time butter, ns we all know, turns rancid very quickly. (The (following hint to putify butter that is tainted is worth remembering. Melt and skim the butter as for clarifying and then put into it a piece of weii-toasted bread. Almost immediately the butter'will lose its rancid taste, while the bre,ad will absorb the impurity. Remove the bread and cool the butter. To renovate China matting, shake well to remove dust. Rub over with warm salt and water ( ancT wipe dry with a cloth. This prevents the mats turning yellow. A usqful adhesive paste : Mix wheaten flour with, cold jy'ater to a thin creamy consistency? Heat in an enamel saugepan till the mixture thickens stirring well. Then add, and well stir in 30 drops of oil of cloves to the haSf pint of original mixture. When cold remove the hardened surface and bottle. This paste keeps indefinitely. Powdered alum and borax mixed together have been found very effective as a moth preventative. Cheese making in place of butter manufacture is now the activity in the three factories controlled by the Kairanga Dairy Company.., In this connection ,a Palmerston North Standand reporter was informed that, on account of the his© in the price of cheese, supplies for that product would be offereing very freely, and would in all likelihood considerably exceed those of former years. The company has this year shown a substantial increase in its butter figures, attaining a daily output of 90 boxes whereas the highest! total in past seasons had been only 61. Start next issue.
