The Cabinet session held yesterday
was engaged in discussing the Cuban
question.
The passenger train bound east, due
at Green River at Z: AS Thursday night,
lis stuck in the snow between Bryan
and Green River, and six freight trains
are lying at the latter place bound west.
1t was still showing.
Official advices from Mexico say that
the report is not true that the border
thief, Cortina, had escaped.
The postal subcommittee has had its
attention drawn to the fact of the prac-
tice of some seven years of permitting
mail agents to draw salary from the
Government and charge travelling ex-
ipenses, when they had not raised their
hands in the Government service out
side of their offices. Other abuses are
mentioned.
The Southwestern Car Company of
Jacksonville, Ind, have filed their Pc
tition in bankruptcy. The assets, it is
said, will cover the liabilities.
The London Times, which recently
rejected Senator Sherman unity prop
'osition, now approves the measure.
The Cabinet session held at Wash
ington yesterday lasted nearly two hours
and the Cuban question was the SUBJ
.ject of discussion, but its consideration
was not attended by any circumstances
of unusual Importance. The Cuban
correspondence shows the last letter of
Mr.. Fish to Mr.. Cushing to be of Nov.
i5th, reviewing the situation. He says
it is now the desire of the Government
to satisfactorily adjust all questions,
and in this desire we have been patient
almost to the limits Of endurance. He
Insists that Spain shall bring General
Burriel to trial in accordance with the
protocol, that in reference to all pend
ing questions, the relations with Spain
are endangered by delay. A telegram
from Mr.. Cushing, Nov. 10th, says the
Spanish Government repeats the as.
surance of the trial of Burriel.
A London special from Vienna re-
ports that L. Jubobratch has issued a
proclamation resigning the leadership
of the Herzegovinian Insurgents. He
says his continuing in the chief COM
mand would lead 60 immediate dis
putes. He advises the Insurgents to
persevere until the Turks are expelled
from the Province. The Deutsche
Zeietung reports that Hubmeyer, the
leader of the Insurgents in North
west Bosnia, has been murdered by
supposed agent of the Servian Govern
ment. L. Jubobratch and Hubmeyer,
both Austrians. and the present leaders
of the Insurgents, are Montenegrans,
and it is said were appointed by their
prince. A report IL current that the
railroad officials in Croatia have re-
ceived notice to prepare for the trans
portation of troops. A Hungarian
Journal states that preparations are
making at Eszekoa, fortified town,
for garrison of so, 900 men.
A London dispatch says the Russian
telegraph agency reports that the pow.
ers are much gratifed with Englaad,s-
reply to the Austrian note. The
points wherein England reserves juda-
ment are considered unimportant.

The secret of Good Butter.

The Practical Farmer says It Is admit
It'd by butter-makers Of extensive expert
ence that impurities and noxiou> doors in
the atmosphere where cream Is rising.w
iniure the flavor Of the butter. y. 4.
Willard writes on this subject that when
mixers are allowed to come directly from
the stable 10 the milk room, it Is impos-
sible to Seep the latter place sweet for the
time being
There ale hundreds Of butter-makers,
We are aware, on whom the Importance OF
this truth cannot be too strongly urged
since they consider many little things Of
this kind in regard TO dairy management,
too insignificant to merit attention. But
in butter-making, the observance Of little
things Is often the great secret Of success.
There Is no doub, that immense guam
titles Of poor butter are made from the
milk set in improper places. The kitchen
pantry, the living room and the cellar
used 10 store vegetables and other family
supplies, will impart peculiar taints to the
mix and cream, In such a degree as to
be destructive TO flavor, even though the
butter in other respects be skilfuly ham
died. Dairy rooms so situated as to
catch the odor from the pig-stye, the cess
pool, or other deeUmpOsiDg filth, cannot
he used for making good butter There
should be a freedom from filth and impur-
titles Of every description about the milk
house, and the milk should be delivered
by mixers In an ante-rOom, or some point
outside the milk room, and from thence
conveyed to the place where it is TO be set
for cream. In this way the fumes and
the litter from the stable NAV be kept
from the milk .ro.m.
The causes Of poor butter are various,
the most important Of which are want o.
cleanliness, he want OF proper dairy uten-
Ills, the need Of good dairy room or
proper place for setting the milk, neglect
IL manipulating the cream at the right
time, uu>kiiul working, packing. and
storing the butter, and finally, lack Of
knowledge in part or whole Of the pro-
cess required for making a prime article

Ne,o Use for Potatoes.

The present low price Of potatoes, and
the large crop on hand, naturally give
rise to the wish that some new mode OF
utilizing this vegetable might be discov-
cred; aud hence our potato-growing farm
ers arc quick to catch at any statement or
suggestion that looks like progress in this
direction.
The following item had its origin in a
New York City paper, and has been
thoughtlessly copied into several agricul-
tural journals whose editors ought to have
known better for very little thought is
sufficient TO show its falsity:
"a trade is conducted in Europe to the
value of several millions sterling per year
in converting potatoes into farina or pota.
to -four. Mr.. Alexander S. Macrae, 10
Duke street, Toronto, gave some informa-
ton on the subject in the New York Sun
and Chicago Times Of the Dist and 22d
of September, The result has been con-
siderable excitement among agricul.urists
and Others to know something Of the actual
process, and Mr.. NJ. puts it to our discre-
ton to publish the following details: l..
The potatoes are peeled 10 a raw state.
>. They are crushed into an impalpable
pulp, which is well washed. 3. The water
is then evaporated, leaving pure white
residuum, which is the -four or farina.
Three tons of potatoes at cost OF say
$40 should make one ton Of farlna, OF a
value of Sl00, leaving $50 for wear, tear
and profit"
Now everybody who knows anything OF
vegetable chemistry is aware that potatoes
of an average quality are composed Of 10
to rs per cent. water, and the remainder
is to to Is per cent. starch, and 4 10 .
per cent. gum, albumen and cellulo:e !;
hence the "fariua or potato -four can be
nothing more than potato starch, with a
little Of the other ingredients as impuri-
ties, and perhaps a modification of the
starch by heating so as 10 make 1t RESENT
bic tapioca, and thus conceal its real char
acter without improving its value as food.
1t is clear, also, that instead Of three
tons of potatoes making ton of "farina'
it must take at least FIVE tons-thus afford
ing little chance for profit.
The starch from potatoes els counted OF
less value than that from corn; and the
Weld of the latter is - to so per cent,
or about FIVE times as great as the former !;
so that allowing the cost of manufacture
to be the same, the value of bushel OF
corn, for making starch, is equal to that
of FIVE bushels of pOtatOes.-[O. Farmer.

lIilk from HOIsteim Co'rS.

Ii is often remarked that the milk OF
COWS giving so much as the Holstelns do,
must be lacking in quality. That this Is
an incorrect conclusion, We have abund-
ance Of proof. Holland is dairy cOun-
try exclusively, not for the sale OF milk,
but for the manufacture Of butter and
cheese, the qcality Of which has world
wide reputation. | have had but little
opportunity TO test their milk for butter
making, but for general purposes, | know
it Is excelled by none, and rarely equalled.
For nearly two years | furnished one OF
the largest retailers in Boston, and ne
expressed much regret when | found
better market. Tie assured me that he
never sold milk that gave more general
satisfaction. He said it was particularly
even in quality, and that 1t surpassed sll
other milk in keeping-two qualities quite
essential in the manufacture Of butter.
Holstein milk has more body than Jer-
sey consequently requires more time for
the cream TO separate. IL Is 10; claimed
that Holstein milk will produce larger
percentage Of cream than the Jersey, but
the advantage l. in the greater yield OF
milk. have unfortunately mislaid some
valuable statistics and records Of butter
produced by Hol>teins, but reports are
numerous of cows making from l. to i
pounds per week. Mr.. Chenery's Texe-
laar made Il lbs. II OF. in TX days
Mr.. Mller'> Crown Prince made from
l. to - lb<. per week. TeXelaar's milk
Welded 22I2 per cent. cream.
Col. HCtim4u writes Il made care
fui test every month, OF each OF my COWS,
separate. together with the milk OF about
10 other oairies, aud hud IN almost every
case the HolSteinS run ahead in the per-
centage OF cream and the lactometer
standard also"
F. W. Wright Of this place made care
tul experiments with his HolS;ein milk,
and found he made pound Of butter from
1t pounds Of milk. 1t Is a remarkable
record, but no one VINO knows this gentle
man will doubt ii. lie tells me that he
l. satisfied he can, under favorable cir
cum>tance,, make Il pounds per week
from Quo Of MS COWS. This COW has
recently dropped a calf, and has made
Winter record without fOrcingl Of %
pounds Of milk per day.
As a chee.n COW, the HolStein stands
at the head of the list, but after all, her
great advantage Is in her wonderful COM
bmation of qualities l acknowledge my
inability 10 do her justice Natl Lave
