not salable. and If too weak they will
ferment too much and get soft. The
proper strength is just enough to float
a potato. If your subscriber wishes to
market his pickles in vinegar, they
must be taken out of the brine about a
week before being sold; when taken
out they are at once placed in fresh
water, and the water chan, ed twice a
day until the PICKLES taste quite fresh,
which usually lakes two or three DAYS.
The pickles are then placed in strong
cider or whiskey vinegar, and spiced
to suit the taste of the customer.
1t was formerly the almost univer-
sal custom to scald the pickles in
copper kettle after freshening and be-
fore placing them in vinegar; the ver-
digris of the kettle would impart q
bright green to the pickles, somewhat
like the color Of freshly picked cucum-
bers, and more attractive to the eye
than the dirty, yellowish green of q
salted pickle. The very small amount
OF copper required to impart this color
was probably harmless, for am not
aware that any case Of copper poison
ing ever resulted from the cOnsamp-
tion OF the enormous quantities o.
pickles that were few years ago pre-
pared in this way; but of late years.
the fashion has changed, probably
through a knowledge on the part Of
the buyer Of the source of the green
color, and fear of injurious effects
therefrom, and now the demand for
green pickles is very light as compar-
ed with the sO-called English pickles
that are prepared without copper;
they havea dull, yellowish green color,
hut are crispy and good, and as digest
ibie as cucumber can be, which is not

British authorities that an American
bill of health was a trustworthy certif-
icate upon which they might venture
to admit American cattle to English
pasturage. Under present arrange
ments all cattle arriving from Ameri-
ca must be slaughtered upon the
wharves. AS consequence, only
such as are fat and in proper condi-
tion for immediate use can be ship
ped.
Our trade in cattle with Great Brit
ian amounts to $S,OOO,O0O or 100000
annually, but, If the erestrictiOns against
pasturing American cattle be removed
so that lean cattle can be exported and
fattened after their arrival, the trade
may be increased probably fve-fold
with profit to both nations. Judge
French considers it certain that pleurO-
of the great cattle growing regions of
the West. Did single case develope
itself, it would make itself known like
fire in a city. ....-..
The difficulty is that infected regions
lie between the West and the Atlantic
coast, through which the cattle must
pass, and under present arrangements,
they run the risk of contracting the
disease,-at least, so the British au-
thOrities believed. 1t is proposed that
the railroads shall either make new
cars for the transportation of Western
cattle, using them for no other purpose,
or adopt some method to be presented
to the Commission for cleansing and

ing and watering places are to be es
tablished and surrounded with all the
safeguards that science and experience
can devise.
The members of the Commission
have had 20 years of experience, and
are able to recognize, however slight,
the symptoms. The measures necessa-
ry to be adopted to prevent its spread
will enable them, without doubt, to
make success certain.
