Conversion OF Cane into Grape Sugar
by Cooking.

The general discussion of the corn and sor-
ghum sugar question in the newspapers, and
the publication of facts relative to the manu-
facture of what one writer calls oleomar-
garine sugar" from corn-starch, have in
formed all reading people of the difference
in sweetening power between cane sugar
tsucrose) and grape sugar (glucose). The
latter has less than half the saccharine effect
OF the former, and its use as an adulterant
OF commercial sugars is fraud upon the
public which strongly demands legislative
correction. But until the Michigan Board
OF Health recently called attention to the
subject, the inversion Of cane into grape
sugar when the latter is heated in connec-
ton with fruit acids has been little under
stood, though observing housewives have
not failed to notice that it took more sugar
to sweeten fruit if added before cooking in
stead of afterwards. This has perfectly
scientific basis. We are in receipt of a let
ter from an eminent chemist who, in reply
to an inquiry we addressed to him, SAYS
have tried the experiment with apples
and found that over sixty-six per cent Sixty.
six and sixty-four hundredths) of the sugar
was inverted. / have no doubt but that in
ordinary practice nearly if not quite all the
sugar added before cooking is inverted"
Our lady readers will at once see what loss
is suffered by cooking sugar with acid fruits
One half the sugar in such cases is practi.
cally destroyed. When we consider that at
least twenty per cent of the refined sugar
sold in the stores already consists of glucose
fraudulently added by the refners, we can
see that with this additional loss the sugar
bills OF our families are apt to be greatly in
creased. 1t is time that the United States
should make its own sugar.

ped to England, sorted and sold as grass seeds.
sample OF red clover seed, which had been ex-

foreign seeds were Of fortyfour distinct species,
among them thistle, sorrel, milk weed dandelion,
knot weed burdock, darnel, goose grass, blue

Germany Is only sixtv-two The average per cen.

United States fifty, in Germany forty.two. The
average percentage OF pure seeds In American

Grain SppcuIatOrs.

The Rural NeC Yorker, speaking of Keene
and the rest of the grain gamblers who have
locked up so many millions of bushels of
wheat all winter in the hope of immense
gains, but who are likely not to make much
money out of it after all, says:
Their selfish greed has sorely pinched starry
ing millions, seriously injured trade and COM
merce, made our foreign customers seek other
mar Sets and stimulated to greater efforts our
foreign rivals
This was exactly the view we took of the
matter when the speculation began. We
were then gravely informed by contempt.
rary that our "logic" was defective on this
point, and that grain spectators are great
benefit to farmers. We did not see it then
and we do not see it now, nor does our able
New York contemporary seem to be able to
see it. Probably we shall need full course
of "logic," (Which is a standard study in
the agricultural colleges most approved by
our criticising contemporary before we can
see how gambling of any kind can contribute
to the prosperity of any honest class or of
any respectable business. And we consider
farming both honest and respectable.

" Bob-Tailed - Science.

An eminent scientist, recently writing b
us on another subject, encloses clipping
from the Country Gentleman, with some sen
fences marked, and asks; {" Do you ALLOW
such 'bob-tailed science from Vermonte
to escape the criticism of your pen 2" Tn,
sentences were from an article on churning
as follows:
Z" But half the world cannot understand, ant
the other half will not that the Thermometer ma,
indicate sixty-two degrees in a batch of cream
and not single globule OF the butter fat b.
heated above forty-fve or fifty degrees. Their

butter-makers, when they are about To churn
heat up their cream to the traditional standard
and put 1t into the churn, surprising that they
have done just the right thing. One OF the best
bntter-makers in this country (he does not live ID
Vermont) found by experience that he always goi
better results II he heated his cream to sixty de-
grees and held 1t there twelve hours before churn
ing. Another whose goods have taken very high
rank, and whose methods are very regular, pre-
pares her cream by heating 1t to ninety degrees,
and letting It fall back from that to sixty degrees
Neither could give the rationale OF the operation,
but both accomplished precisely the same result,
but by two different processes-that is they bring
the cream globules to the standard temperature.
The explanation of the phenomena is that the
fatty part OF the cream does not absorb heat so
rapidly as the other portions. Only by the pro-
tracted holding of the mass at sixty degrees can
the fatty portion be brought to that temperature
without raising the other portion higher
All the criticism needed in this case is
to say that, the alleged fact which half the
world cannot understand is no fact at all
but an utter falsity, and the explanation "
is bob-tailed science" of the shortest cut.
The sold fogy notions are perfectly cor.
rect in this case.

Natural Selection.

We hear much in these days of natural
selection, but no illustration on so grand a
scale has ever been witnessed as we behold
in the United States. Our immigrant an
cestors were largely composed of self-selected
people of the Old World. The brave the
energetic, the dauntless, the liberty Loving,
the hatars of oppression, ignorance and in
justice, formed the sure foundation on which
they and their children builded so nobly and
so we'll A nation might be formed under
more favorable circumstances, but nation
never was. No such spectacle has ever been
witnessed of nation with territory suffi-
Gent for dozen respectable empires, re-
claimed from a wilderness, conquered by
the arts of peace, and rising by its wisdom
and education from few sparsely settled
colonies to position of power, wealth and
refinement, that challenges the admiration
and wonder of the civilized world. This Sc
lection of the fittest explains the miracle
that has been wrought in our land during
the past century.

Broke His Pledge ON Cider.

When ! was little girl | knew man
who drank freely. He was often intoxicated,
but his family would have resented it If he
had been called drunkard. He was a fine.
looking man, and he had good sense about
other things, much more than common. He
had fine abilities and good education, and
he might have made Judge or legislator
# he had not injured his faculties by drink
ing. And he had injured his body as well
as his mind. His hair had grown white,
and he had grown old before his time. He
was slave to drink.
This was in the early days of the temper
ance reformation, when Edward c. Delavan
was doing so much good. He sent out
great many lecturers, and, among others,
the Rev. Charles Yale, who came to our
place. This old friend of ours knew Mr..
Yale, and went to hear him lecture. When
the pledge was presented and the people were
urged to sign it, this old man arose in the
back part of the church, and, in a voice
shaking with excitement and broken by
sobs, he said; Boys, look at me, and you
will see stronger lecture than my friend
Yale can deliver. Let my palsied limbs and
-tammering tongue be a warning to you to
shun the drink" He then came forward
and signed the pledge against ardent spirits
such as they signed in those days, and he
kept it.
But it happened that this old man had
fine orchard, and he made cider. When it
was sweet he drank it as he always had
done, and thought there was no harm in it,
He had not taken the pledge against cider
Others drank with him often did so.
And when the cider began to have alcohol
in it he kept on drinking, not knowing the
danger, and so he fell victim TO the poi
soned juice of his own fruit. He would be.
come as drunk as he ever was before on rum,
and it made him great deal more trouble
some and vicious. He would be sober for
a while, aud then he would fall again, never
using anything stronger than cider and to-
bacco. At times he would be perfectly furi-
Gus. He had little girl, the child OF his
old age, that he loved dearly. He would do
almost anything for her. but when he was
Infatuated with drink she was often obliged
to run away and to hide from him at one
time her older sisters let her down from an
upper window, so that she might escape
from the fury of her own father
Dear children, you can imagine how deeply
felt all this when tell you that was that
little girl, and that this man was my own
father. hope that such sorrow as had
may never fall to your lot.
Yet loved my father in spite of all this,
and it was great joy to us all when at last,
by the help of God, he threw away his cider
and his tobacco, and became sober man.
He lived many years afterwards, and died a
Christians death. But during all these
years, even after he reformed, he had little
enjoyment of life; his shattered nerves, his
palsied limbs, his impaired mind, his re-
morse Of conscience were pitiable to behold
and much of it all was due TO the cider. Do
you wonder, then, my dear children, that
say to you, Beware of the cider ?"--Ten,-
perance Banner.

Winter Feeding OF Cows.

An exchange truthfuly says that the yield
of milk and butter in the summer depends
greatly upon winter feeding. All the feed
given to COWS is not consumed without re-
turn. The manure gives good dividend
upon the outlay, and the animals are storing
up energy and strength to be made avail
able afterward. The winter is the season
for liberal and judicious feeding, and not
for short commons" which is but another
name for half-starvation. While there are
great many COWS that will not pay for their
keep, for the simple reason "that they have
not it in Them" there are great many that
do not pay, but which would pay if they
were properly taken care of. We believe in
blood, believe that ait tells" but, as fire.
quently expressed, we not only believe, but
know, as every one else who has had expe-
rience in such matters knows, that the ma
tive COW is often not only good mixer, but
an extra good one.

feel newer life in every gale;
The winds that fan the flowers,
AHd with their welcome breathing all the sail,
Tell Of serener hours.
OF hours that glide unfelt away
Beneath the sky of May.
The spirit Of the gentle south wind calls
From his blue throne Of air,
And where his whispering voice in music fails.
Beauty ls budding there;
The bright ones Of the valley break
Their slumbers and awake.
The waving verdure rolls along the plain,
And the wide forest weaves,
To welcome back its playful mates again.
A canopy Of leaves;
And from its darkenlng shadow floats
A gush OF trembling notes.
Fairer and brighter spreads the reign Of May;
The tresses OF the woods
with the light dalying Of the west wind play.
And the full-brimmng foods.
As gladly to their goal they run.
Hail the returning sun.
