The Aroma of Fine Butter.

Frof Segelcke, Of the Royal Agricul
ture College OF Denmark, whose ex.
pesiments and investigations in dairy
practice have been of such great value
to that country. expresses the opinion
that the aromatic principles Of butter
are due to the partial decomposition OF
milk or cream, and the development of
Tactic acid. In precisely what way this
decomposition or development of Tactic
aoid gives rise to the aroma in butter,
so much sought after and admired by
the lovers of butter, is not yet known,
but it may and probably does come
from chemical charges in utterly in
odorous principles. He says: "If the
temperature of the milk when set for
cream be from 10 to II degrees cent?
grade 40 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit or
more, it deoomposes, forming Tactic
fluid and several other new principles,
among them aromatic principles, and it
needs but to churn the cream to obtain
aromatic butter. If, on the other hand,
the temperature of the milk at such
time be near the freezing point. the
decomposition necessary for the pro-
duction of aromatic principles is held
in check, and consequently the aroma
of butter obtained from fresh cream is
so feeble that it is not perceptible to
persons accustomed to butter prepared
~ above indicated-il the same way as
French buffers are made at present.
But if it be desired to obtain more
aromatic butter, all that is required is
to place the cream in circumstances
favorable to Tactic fermentation, and q
few hours will produce the required
result. In either case. the aroma formed
may be more or less sgreeable-that
oil depends on the fundamental princi
pies of the milk, on the quality of the
principles necessary for the formation
of aromatic principles, that is present.
and on the method of manipulation
employed. In either case, again. the
appearance of aromatic principles is
accompanied by that of Tactic acid.
Whether the aromatic principles sought
for in butter are produced by Tactic
fermentation. by simultaneous general
fermentation. or by several fermenta-
tions combined, do not know"

The Old Secretary.


It was an cli-f2sa!oaet writing desk
and stood in an old.fashioned room O
a New Hampshire farmhouse. Its
curious little drawers and pigeon-holes
and its polished surface, set CT by
shining brass handles. suggested his
tory. It had served the family for 6
hundred years. and was now fashion
able piece Of furniture.
/ But some twenty years ago the old
secretary was not SO highly priced as il
is now. It vas only grandfather
old desk" and was turned over to the
little girls for a playhouse. They
valued it. Its cosey pigeon-holes and
little drawers were delightful places
for their dolls and playthings. But
one day. while doll was being dressed.
small drawer was pulled SO suddenly
open as to come out entirely.
The bright eyes Of the little maiden
spied crumpled piece OF paper away
back In the recess. Drawing it out,
she was amazed to find it q fifty dollar
bill, on the Bank of Brighton. Massa-
chusetts.
Hardly crediting her eyes, the little
miss hurried down stairs to astonlsh
the family at what she had found. No
one could account for its being in that
place, and they all an1iously awaited
the fathers return at night.
He was also surprised. Putting on
his thinking cap. he at last recalled the
fact that some forty years before. when
he was lad, his father had lost fifty
dollar bill. 1t had disappeared in a
mysterious manner, and though the
house was searched, it WAS not found.
Suspicion had fallen on hired man,
who had suddenly left few days
before the bill was missed. AS there
was no direct evidence to support the
charge of theft. the matter was dropped,
but in the old farmers mind the man
was branded as thief.
But the more important question was,
would the ban k redeem the note, as its
old issues had been called in years
before. In a day or two the father
called at the bank. presented the old
bill and told its story. The old presi,
dent was the only person connected
with the bank who had ever seen bill
OF that issue. He was surprised and
interested, and delighted the farmer Z
heart by giving in exchange for it five
new ten dollar bills.
The old secretary, therefore. whis-
pers an important lesson. 1t warns
that the mere loss of money, though
the loss is accountable, should not
tempt us to suspect some person OF
stealing it. From every one of its
shining brass handles is reflected the
text, Charity thinketh no evil" Alas,
careless persons are seldom charitable.

Travelling in Mexico.

In Mexico there are no hotels nor
boarding houses, except in large cities
where foreigners reside. As stage
coaches or other public conveysnces
are rare, the travel is mostly done on
horseback. The saddle is generally
mounted with gold or silver. and rich
" ornamented. The rowels of the spur
are as big as a silver dollar, but the
points are very dull. The spur seems
intended more to fIie hten the horse
than to hurt him. The Mexicans are
expert riders. being so much in the
saddle. In travelling quite a rotinue o.
servants is necessary. You have te
take along your bedding on q pack
mule, with servants to attend to the
mules and the luggage, aud cook te
prepare your meals. In many parts Of
the country it is nece ssary to take your
provisions with you, and all the con
veniences for camping out. In zone
PLACES it is difficult to get drinking
water for yourself and your animals
unless you buy it. Ifyou cannot re cl
settlement at night you camp out
in a town you can usually rent room
entirely unturnishei. for the night.
The servants spread the bedding OF
the floor, purchase provisions 10 tht
market, and prepare tie meal in Mexi

are Injuries known only to tie mos

Butter the Msxicans do not know
how to make. The sugar is q very
crude article. inferior to our darkest
brown sugar, and is sold in little cones
that weigh about a pound. Cheese il
made In cones of similar size, from
goats milk. Cows milk is used onl!
fresh, and is never made into cheese O
butter. Horses in Mexico are neve
used for draught purposes. bat are EN-
ployed only for riding. Mules an,
oxen do all the work of transportation
The fine wines made at Ell Paso on tn
Rio Grande are transported in skins
as in Bible times. Bottles. kegs. an
barrels are almost unknown. In man,

scarce to be used for casks; and
