A NEW BUTTER EXTRACTOR

Mb. R. B. Eyehdes, formerly a resident at Wellington, in New Zealand, but now settled at Melbuorne, has invented what he terms '' The Liffhtin« Butter Extractor. " Amongst its advantages the following are set out in cumercial order, I to 15: —It will produce butter in less than five minutes. It is independent of temperature, ie; it will always produce butter, whether the temperature be 3'2 degrees or 81 degrees; whether the at mosphere be clear or muggy It removes the buttermilk automatically; butter can be washed for a week without injuring the grain. It always produces grain, butter can never be overworked. It makes mora butter than any otber machine. In cream of different ages, butter is brought from all, and none overworked. It makes a better keeping article; the grain is never broken; even with hot cream all the cream is churned, and all the buttermilk removed, and the foul gasos are expelled, the progress thoroughly serating tha cream, even better than an air churn. It only raises the temperature of butter 2 degrees, when the oream and the atmosphere are the same. If cream is at 50 degrees, and atmosphere 100 degrees, tho butter is only raised 3 or 4 degrees; and cool cream, hard butter can be made in a temperature of 150 degrees, as tho operation is so short. Hot cream can be as easily made, w ashed, and salted is cold cream. It requires no B kiH a novice can learn its ust. in three lessons—and the butter is always under control. It is eaaily filled, emptied, cleaned, and repaired,. It takes less power than the old method machines. It occupies far less space. It saves labour. It costs less as a michine to turn out a given quantity in a given time. In a P.S. it is asserted to be impossible by tho old ' methods to make butter of the same quality as Extractor butter, if directions are followed. It ia made in sizes to run 8 lb, 25 lb, 60 lb, 120 lb, 250 lb, and 410 lb per charge, and it is said to be fairly safe to assume that four charges perhour ean be "worked. The Yea Chronicle, a paper in Victoria, leased by Mr. P. Galvin. formely of Hawera, reporting on 28th June, says:—"Mr. R. E. Erenden, patentee of ' Evenden's Lightning Butter Worker,' gave exhibitions on his churn at the Yea Creamery and Mr. D. McLeish's dairy at Murrindindi, at the Alexandra Shire Hall, and at Bonnie Doon. At Doon the directors were so pleased with the churn that they ordered one for their new Dairy Factory, and at Alexandra the opinion was equally favourable, it being almost certain .that that they will also order one. ■ At Yea butter was made and salted in ten minutes, and at Murrindindi the butter was actually made in 18 minutes by Mr. McLeish's stop-watch. But it is" not lightning speed that the patentee alone claims. He positively asserts that his machine turns out a better article than any otker churn in tho market, and is prepared to submit to any tests. "
