The Western Rural.
In recent issue Of The Western Rural,
published at Chicago, we examined with
interest some microscopical illustrations
showing the difference between butter
and oleomargarine, with scientific de-.
scription, showing also the difference
between genuine butter and the patent
stuff, with startling results. Upon the
Of The Rural we find that, in
the large cities already millions of pounds
of animal fats are converted into SHUTTER"
and sold in the market as creamery or
dairy product, thus not only threatening
the very existence Of the legitimate dairy
interest, but also the health Of the con-
sumer, as it is found that living organ
lsms are developed in the patent article.
The Rural demands the passage of law
in every State compelling the manufact.
urer and vender to brand the name on
every package, as guide to the consum-
er.
The publisher has also recently issued
100000 extra copies of The Rural on the
question Of cheaper and more uniform
system Of transportation over our rail
roads. This matter is being pressed upon
the attention Of our legislators for regu.
la,,on, backed by tens of thousands Of
petitioners. Send for free sam pie copy
