A War Anecdote.
Savannah News. !

.s $50 loaVanNan NeWs.
During the late war Gen. McLaws,
now postmaster at Savannah, was rid.
ing down his picket line, and sencoun-
tered genuine son .of the Old Pine
Tree State on duty, who had taken
his gun apart with the intention of
giving it thorough cleaning The
General haulted in front OF him, when
the following conversation ensued: pa
''Look here, nay man. are you not
a sentinel on duty?"
''Well, y.a-s, bit of one!'
Don't You know it is wrong to take
your gun apart while on dutyp"
"Well now, who the ID are you?'
The General saw his chance, and
with sly twinkle of the eye replied
I'm bit of a General" .z
"Well. General, you must excuse
me. You see thar is 80 many d--n
fools ridin' round here Teller can :
tell who's Gineral and who amt II
you will gist wait till git Betsy
Jade fixed | will give you bit of a
s'lute.'
The General smiled and rode on,
firmly convinced that that sentinel
would prove equal to any emergency.

Summer Food for Stock.

Beyond doubt green grass is the
best general food for stock during the
season that it can be eaten when it
grows. No stock-raiser. or dairymaD,
however should rely entirely on his
pastures for ,s supplying food Tor his
animals from April to November. If he
does he will not realize from them all
the profits it is possible to obtain.
The soil is sometimes too wet and at
other times too dry to afford either q
large quantity or quality of grass.
But cattle relish change of food,
even when the feed of pasture is at
its best. Horses, COWS and sheep will
eat a few pounds Of old hay each day.
even when the grass in the pasture Is
sup to their eyes" All dairymen,
especially those who are engaged in
butter making, find it to their advan
tage to give cows a ration Of dry corn
meal, bran, or shorts during the entire
time they are kept in pasture. They
find that it increases the flow of milk,
and keepsup.the condition of the COWS.
The increase in the amount Of the
butter made more than compensates
for the outlay for the dry food Grass
is the cheapest as we'll as the best
food to rely on in fattening cattle, but
they will gain much faster if they are
allowed some grain during the time
they are feeding on grass, They will
also be in better condition to grain
when they are taken up for the pur-
posefors stall-feeding. The change
from green grass to hay and grain
is too violent for the good OF the ami
mails They should become accustom.

What Ais the Butter.

We.have been asked by butter
buyer, "What ails the butter?" He
further states that be has'great trouble
in finding butter for two months or
more. In fact, the butter all winter
has been inferior to that bought last
winter.
Milk and butter are so susceptible
to countless influences of water and
feed given to the cows and to the sur
roundings OF the stables, pastures
and milk rooms that one can not an 9
swer such an inquiry without full
investigation, and then may be puz-
zled. But here is q general or CON-
mon fault and must bave some wide
spread case. The same inquirer says
there was no trouble a year ago about
getting good butter, but for six
months past there has been great diff
Guilty in. fiadinga strictly prime. arti-
cle. One year ago there was plenty
of good sound corr, hay. straw and
fodder. Now there is great scarcity
of feed, and the quality is inferior.
The corn crop was very poor, and
much of it rotten, which was fed to
the COWS. The continued wet, warm
weather of the winter has damaged
the fodder and straw, and the cows
have not had any strictly prime feed
since they left grass. The soft and
filthy condition of barn lots and the
ground about straw stacks has made
it almost impossible to keep cows
clean. All these conditions enter in.
to the problem of how to make butter.
And as neither cow or dairy maid
can make a pure thing out Of an i'm
purity, we have solution ofthe prob.
lem. The open wet wenter has dam
aged the feed. After the COWS 60 to
grass and can get sound corn meal,
we may expect better quality OF
butter. The consumer must be
patient. The butter maker is doing
as well as the nature Of the case will
allow.

How Butter may be Spoiled.

Good butter may be spoiled in the
churning. Overchurning ruins the
texture aud changes the proper wax
mess to disagreeable, sticky greasi-
ness. This is more easily done in
the churn with revolving dashes,
which will press the butter against
the side OF the churn and squeeze and
rub it until it is spoiled. Too long
churning spoils the quality by the OK
idation of the butter and the pre-
mature formation of strong favored
acids in it, the full preserving presence
of which we call rancidity. 1t may
be spoiled by churDing at too
high temperature, by which it
is made soft and oily, and of greasy
texture and flavor. No subsequent
treatment can remedy this error. 1t
may be spoiled before the cream
reaches the churn by keeping it too
long, or what is practically the same,
by keeping it in to warm place; 500
is about the right temperature if cream
is kept a week if il is kept at 620,
three days are long enough. White
specks are produced in butter by over
churniDg, or by having the cream too
sour. Either Of these faults produces
curd in the milk land the small fakes
of this can not be washed out of the
butter. Milk from COW in i'll health
and that is acid when drawn, will
produce specky butter. So will the
use of salt containing PARTICLES of lime
which unite with the butter and form
insoluble lime-soap. White srecks
are covered UP to a large extent by
using good coloripg, which is made of
oil as the solvent. But this use OF
coloring, being TO disguise a.fault and
to add an undersigned virtue, is
worthyiof the denunciation of even the
