A De Kalb county, Illinois, cor respondent of the "Rural New Yorker," writes: It is a fact well conceded by all good judges of butter that butter made in June is better flavored than that made in any of the other months. It is, therefore, very . important that every one should know how to keep the June product for winter use. Here is one way: Pack the butter solidly in stone crocks to within an inch of the top, level it, and cut a piece of white muslin and spread over the top; then fill to the top with common salt. Dig a hole in the ground on the north side >f some building, or in the shade of some tree; or, if this is inconven ient, the garden will do; let it be deep enough so when the crock is covered the earth on top of it will not be less than eighteen inches thick. In this hole place the crock ; over it put something that will turn off the water if any leaks down to it. An old tin pan turned over makes a good cover. Pack on the earth leaving it rounded, like an ant hill, to carry off the surface water. If this work is done in the garden, plant over the top a vine, or a few beans, or anything, to shade and keep away the torrid rays of the sun. The work is then fnished, until one wishes to take out the butter any time before se vere frost. This method I will warrant to keep butter perfectly sweet until winter, if proper care is taken. An 'old acquaintance of mine tells me lie has practised this plan for years, and when be lived on the farm he used to take up his butter in November, and sell it for 40 cents per pound, whereas, if it had been disposed of when made, he could not have realized more than 15 cents. This is also a good - way to keep canned fruits during the summer,- if one has not a proper place for the purpose. Put the can in a box and bury it as above, if canned in glass. CQTTON PICKING BY "ACHINERY. -The perfection of the practical cotton picking machine is regarded as certain to "'revolutionize labor" at the South. A machine of this kind has long been desired, as sec ond in importance only to the cot ton gin; and it is claimed that a success has at last been attained by Mr. Mason, of Sumter, S. C. $An "imper ect" model hais already picked 300 pounds in an hour. The improved machine, which the inven for has now completed, is expiected to pick 600 pounds an hour. One hand and a pair of horses will do the work of fifty hand&, as at pres ent employed. Harvesting that now costs $30 is reduced to $2 50, the saving per bale being $0. Ma 3 son is spoken of enthusiastically as "the Mahidi of the South, who is to deliver the cotton g:ower from his greatest trouble, and rescue him from merchants' claims and store keepers' bills-to revolutionize the entire situation of labor." The Baltimore American, from which we glean these statemen~ts, --says the inventor has refused$1,000. 000 for his patent, and, backed by -abundant capital,., will engage in the manufacture and sale of the :nachines. It is probable it will be found that there are still difficulties to be overcome; but If a trial ma e hine has actually accomplished what Is claimed for it, there cr.a be no doubt that the invention is per. fectible. In view of the mechanical progress during the past thirty years, it will not do to say that a contrivance of this s'rt is impracti cable. * The effect of such an invention upon colored labor-for this is the - only sort that has been trained to pick cotton-Is variously estimated The Southern papers generally con cede that it will, at first, greatly in Jzirs the colored people in the (Cot ton States. But eventually, it is thought, "the cotton picker will be of material benefit to the colored people of the South, as they will be drawn from the nelds into the mills as operatives. or into the citie3, where they will earn more money as house servants, and the like, with better educational advantages; while for those who remain indus triously at agriculture there will be, 6 with thrift and economy, improved opportunity for advancement. They will, it is argued, in time become, through means of this cotton picker, -- land owners and planters, instead of bired laborers." We see no rea son why the picker should injure the laborers in the cotton belt per. mnanently, any more than the real' er and binder, or the thresher,.in jured the laborers in the wheat belt. It will enable the planters to in crease greatly their acreage, to gather their crop at the critical time when it is ready, and to add largely to their profits, and this should add to the general prospe rity of their section, in which all industrious and temperate citizens will share.-Boston Herald.

In like manner it may be said that all men desire to dress well, the knowledge of where to buy. making the 'only differ ence in their wearing apparel. One thing certain: The best dress ed men, and those that pay the least money for their Clothing. buy at the Emporium. There can be no doubt about this statement, because it is found ed upon the plainest common sense. First.-Blecause I buy in large quantities, from manufacturers, which is more than halt the battle in commercial warfare, and thus save a large percentage usually paid to middlemen. Second.-I give my customers the benefit of this percentage. Third.-I purchase no garments but those which are made of Supe rior material, by expert designers and skillful workmen. And lastly but not least my house rests on the firm foundation of Honest Dealing. I allow no exag geration or misrepresentation, all goods are exactly as represented. Come and try us, or rather the clothing, and judge for yourself. My General Stock Consists of Clothing, Hats, Gents furnishing Goods in all grades, Neckwear, and Men's fine shoes.
