St, JOSEPH GAZETTE.

The St. Joseph Gazette, ono of the
most reliable Democratic papers Of
the state, and the most ably conduct
cd journal in Northwest Missouri, has
passed into the hands Of Joseph A.
Corby and Peter Nugent. Mr.. Corby
is represented to be a young man Of
sterling business qualities, in all
respects competent to the work not
only of m6nraining the high character
OF the Gazette, but Of extending it's
influence and usefulness. The TEN.
porary loss (for we hope it is only
temporary Of Colonel Cundif from
the editorial profession Of the State
Ia u matter OF general regret, for he
combines the qualities Of head aud
heart which peculiarly qualify . mar
for the duties aud responsibilities OF
the editorial chair.

The New rhinE IN Batter.

rom Inc b5ltlInOIe AnetiC8n.l
The latest achicvmen, in practical
science is the making Of butter with
out milk. A company with a capital
of five hundred thousand doll ars-to
he calle.i the Olcsmargarine Manu-
featuring Cumpany-has been estab-
lisl,cd in Philadelphia for the manu-
facturc Of tue new product. Tho
process is thus decribcd The new
butter is made from the same material
rs ordinary butter. but this material
is obtained by . much more simple
and natural process than that Of
milking the cows, &c. In ordinary
butter, it 10 not the cream that 10
made into butter, but the oil in the
cream. The butter when made is
composed Of oil, mixed with sour
milk or buttcr-milk. Ii the butter
is warmed up to q certain point YOU
have nothing but oil. Now, this oil
was secreted land went into milky
from the fatty tissues Of the cow. 1t
is q round-atuut way-and not al
ways very clear-to obtain butter.
Now the new process OF making but
is 10 60 10 the original source Of the
oil, namely, TO the fatty tissues Of the
animal. This fat was taken from
any beef creature when killed-cow
steer, &c.-is taken aud ground into
q fine pup. 1t is then warmed up to
about 1l2 degrees Fahrenheit, when
it is developed in linen cloths and the
oil pressed out, large iron presses
being used for the purpose. This oil
is then cooled down to about sixty
degrees, aud placed in All Ordinary
churn, adding the same quantity OF
water or milk-though l believe they
now use sour milk iapreference-and
. little anato, . vegetable preparation
usei to color cheese, when the churn.
ing commences. In four minutes the
operation ceases, and q splendid arti.
Gle Of butter has turned out.

The wsy Farness = swiRalsG.
According to u notion there is
more truth than poetry in the follow
ing, from the Midland Farmer:
1.-The complaint of being swindled
by travelling agents is heard all over
the land. We hear it from the far
mcrs OF The East, West, North and
South. But the question arises,
where ia the remedy7 Tho remedy
most assuredly lies with the farmers
themselves. just SO long ~ these
swiudlcrs can find customers that
will buy their wooden nutMegs,
wooden hams and wooden cucumber
seeds, just 40 long will they travel
the country and dispose Of their
wares. No one will follow q business
that does not prove proHtable-and
If tho farmers would refuse to pur.
chase from these paient-right men,
sell their commodities.
Not long since the Eastern farmers
were swindlcd out Of their money BY
. travelling agent who sold . machine
that would NOW, reap, rake, pitch,
lift rocks fro.n their beds, dig pota-
toes, husk corn. &c. The farmers
HuTCilu5Cu Tic IiSuS " uuAuuAAStoi
this wonderful machine, aud gave
their notes in payment, which WIS
sold at the bank n . discount, aud
when due the farmers had to pay
them. or course, the machine was .
hulnbug, and the farmers were swim
died out Of their money.
Fright here let it be said that
patents do ACT pay. Only two out OF
every hundred, or two per cent, bring
their owners . reasonable compensa.
ton for their Time and labor. This
being the facts in the matter Of selling
patent rights, farmers are the la.I
men that should enter the business.
They are Disqualified for the business,
because they lack experience, and,
generally speaking, they arc not mean
enough to make u Datsnt.right paw,
though it should be q good one. II
farmers are swindlei by the travelling
agents, they have only themselves u
censure, tor these swindlers will dis.
continue their business when the de.
mand cease for their vares, and
not before"
