Pay of Pullman Porters.

The Denver Republican recently inter
viewed an official of the Pullman Palace
Car Company on this subject with the fol-
lowing result:
why is it, Mr.. Shields, that the Pullman Com
pany have the reputation of paying their porters
miserable salaries thus making them dependent
on the liberality of passengers In great mea-
sureT' That is not the case. The public enter
tain wrong idea Of the matter. Porters are not
dependent upon passengers in the slightest and
are amply paid for their work. They receive from
SIS to $50 month, according to the service per
formed, the latter amount being paid to what we
term porters-in-charge, or, In other words,
porters who perform the duties of con-
ductor and porter at the same time
a ,work that is not infrequently DONE
When a porter is employed, il is only on the
best of recommendation and with the most string

regulation governing his service, and Is made to
thoroughly appreciate one clause therein before
going on duty. This clause is that he ask no per-
son for money or use his position to blackmail
passengers. IL he violates either of these proyi-
sIons he is first suspended or reprimanded and a
second offense insures him discharge. How

A new terror is being gradually added to

function; and one is expected to string ones
self up to concert pitch five or six hours in
advance of the time ordained by nature and

may be carried too far. The luncheon party
is at best an inconvenient excrescence upon
our social organization, and if it is no

a by-word as the breakfast party.

Take Care of Your Harness.
WISCONSIN Farmer.I

Nor edamage Is done to harness during
the rainy weather than during all the rest OF
the wear. Saturated with water. covered
with mud, and often frozen stiff, so as to
almost break when bent in necessary hand
ling unusual care should be taken to keep
them well oiled and hung up in proper
shape when not muse. Thus treated, IL will
not only last much longer. but look even
better than when neglected in the usual
manner
As to the kind of oil, we know of nothing
better than meats foot or the daubing used
by tanners To give the black color charac-
teristic OF new leather little lamp-black
may be added without detriment, though il
is better not to use this until the second
going over.
Before putting on the oil, however, there
are two important considerations which
must be Observation-Disclosures and dampness.
The necessity of the first is obvious, and the
last is not less important, since the oil can
not penetrate the leather and make it soft
and pliable if put on when it is dry and
hard.
One of the best ways to give the leather
the requisite degree of moisture is to wrap
up the several parts of the harness in wet
cloths a few hours previous to oiling. But
this trouble is unnecessary where washing
has been resorted to for cleaning, as the oil

tirely dry. The oil should be rubbed IN
briskly with brush or cloth, so as to in
sure its absorption.
Varnish should never be used, as it closes
the pores and renders the penetration of oil
more difficult Vegetable oils are harden
ing in their effects and should never be
used for that reason.
Finally let the application of oil be as
frequent as needed, not once year, as is
the rule with some, or almost never, as is
the practice of many.

To prevent sows from crushing theiryoung

The crops that do best on rather stiff soil
are potatoes. onions, celery late cabbages,
late beans, Hubbard squashes and fruits of
all kinds. When well drained, such soil
will often produce good early cabbages.
The best runs for poultry are where grass
and gravel are plentiful. Grass runs are of
great value where they can be had. but they
must be large if the fowls have constant ac-
cess to them, or the grass will soon cease to
grow.
Rain water brings down nearly about
twelve pounds of ammonia per acre of
ground. To supply an equal amount OF
sulphate ammonia at six cents a pound
would cost the farmer $3.50 an acre, which
is therefore the manural value of the rain.

Butter Making.

Miss Fanny G.. Morley, the young lady
who carried Off the grand sweepstakes pre-
MUM at the American Institute, New York
for the butter on exhibition in the United
States or Canada, has written an excellent
article on butter making, from which we
take the following:
A few days since / received postal from
the Secretary of the Wisconsin Dairymen's
Association, then attending dairy meeting
IN Monticello, Iowa, in which he says: The
Iowa folks talk big about their butter, and
they have right to, for they make a great
deal of it," That sounds as though Iowa
was taking the lead in this profitable indus
try, and If in reality she is, / think it is due
in q large measure to the extensive introduc-
ton and use of improved apparatus together
with the new fashioned methods of butter
making. Our pride and ambition to be first
as dairy State have not deserted us yet, and
we do not contemplate standing aside and
allowing them the foremost place.
A great change in the process of butter
making is rapidly taking place, new ideas
and theories are wiping out old-time no
tions, the aged little milk-pan and clumsy
dash-churn are going TO wreck, and the
milk itself is being submerged.
The result is. we make fully three-quar-
tiers of a pound of butter more than is OBJ
tanned from the pans, to each 100 pounds of
milk. 1t was quite startling TO realize the
fact that we were feeding out in our sour
milk between thirty and forty pounds of
gilt-edge butter per week, yet that is virtu-
ally what We were doing. Instead of these
large pans holding some 700 pounds of milk
we are using cans for raising the cream. We
strain the warm new milk Immediately into
them, and submerge in cold water about 43o
Far, letting them remain eleven hours, at
which time the cream is all separated from
the milk.
The philosophical explanation of the
scientific principles involved in this sub
merging process for raising cream is very
simple. Water being a better conductor of
heat than air, the warm milk being sub
merged in very cold water cools more rapidly
than if placed in air equally cold Rapid
cooling makes the milk heavier, and in de-
scending it forces up the lighter cream, and
/ suppose that by the time the milk is
thoroughly cooled the cream is all at the
top. The weather can exert no influence
upon milk set in this way The result is
always uniform IL the same conditions be
observed, and all practical butter-makers ap-

to go, or else Arthur must consent to take
a back seat in political life forevermore.
1t is essential to Arthur that he create
revolution. 1t will be peaceful, of
course, and it. may not be
deemed expedient to inaugur-
ate it Immediately upon the death of
the President. But it is as inevitable as
the day of doom. Mr.. Arthur will be
compelled to adopt policy of his own.
1t is folly to presume that he will con-
tinue the policy of his predecessor. 1t is
more than folly-it is idiocy-to expect
that he will retain men as his chief coun-
sellers who are at utter variance with his
plan of government
If Garfeld dies there Will unquestion-
ably be a brief interregnum of peace,
during which the present cabinet will re-
main in office. After the appointed time,
however, there will be revolution, such
as the country has seldom seen. Arthur
is man Of positive character, but if he
were otherwise his associations are such
that he could not refuse to inaugurate a
change that would be complete and radi-
cal. and that would embrace every de-
partment of the government. If Arthur
has the chance he will be second Tyler.

rope' or collapse valve This consists Of
q rope sewed into the seam of the rubber
cloth, SO that by one vigorous, jerk the
whole side of the balloon may be torn
open. If the wind should fail to convert
the balloon into parachute, then woe
betide the occupants. Scientific aeronauts
wait until the collapse-seam faces the
wind before pulling the rope, when the
wind flows in and, taking the place Of
the escape gas, allows the vessel to de-
scend to the earth in comparatively
gentle manner. Thus Professor King
can, if he wishes to, stop his voyage al
most instantly if the dangers are too
great.
The present trip would probably have
had its starting place on the pacific coast
were it not for the insurnountable fact
that the atmosphere is very much dis
turbed in the neighbrohood of the Rocky
Mountains. Besides that the wind does
not cross the mountains except at a
height which it would be folly to attempt
to reach. If the balloon did start from
the sands of the Pacific and was waited
to the shores of the Atlantic there could
be no stronger proof adduced IN favor of
the theory of an eastern current. AS it is

of the greatest tests to which the meteoro-
logical law has yet been put.

4RTHUR'S POLICY.

There is possibility-but fortunately
It IS only possibility-that the Presi
dent will die and that the Vice President
will be obliged to assume his functions.
What the policy of that official will be
has already evoked considerable discus
sion. 1t has been suggested that he
would turn over the affairs of the GOV
eminent to Conkling. 1t has also been
suggested that he would be compelled by
the force of public opinion to retain the
cabinet of Mr.. Garfield and to carry out
his policy as nearly as he could determine
A fear has also been expressed that
thur would Tylerize.
With the future policy of the admins
iration, whether Mr.. Garfield lives or
dies, the GLOBE has fortunately nothing
10 do. 1t can, however, point to prece-
dents. Tyler was the first Vice Presi-
dent who succeeded to the executive
Office. His career is a matter of history,
snd the revolution he caused in the adj
ministration is matter with
which thousands of our citizens

Tyler, but being negative man
there was but little disturbance involved
in his occupancy of the executive chair.

he passed from the White house without

there is every reason to believe that he
will endeavor to Tylerize the admlnistra-
ton. He will not be able to endure Blaine
in the State department or MacVeagh in
the office of the attorney general, while
there are grave doubts whether he will

CHICAGO is Boosting of the high credit
it has in the money markets of the world
as shown by recent sales of its bonds. 1t
appears that at recent sale of securities
the bonds of the city brought little over
one per cent. premium. This is scarcely
a circumstance to st. Paul, which has
been selling her bonds for years at
nearly three per cent. premium. St..
Paul's credit has always been gilt-edged,
and always will be as long as the admin
istration remains in Democratic hands.
Chicago's credit can be charged to the
fact that the city is under control of the
Democratic party.
