Rat.er. Cheeae and EeEs.

The National Butter, Cheese and Egg Con-
vention, at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, discussed ths
topicsof the protection of the American dairy,
the debate turning upon the immediate neces-
sity of some steps to prevent adulteration. The
prevailing opinion seemed to be that it is the
duty of each State to pass laws requiring all
dairy products to be branded according to their
character, and al articles used for adultera-
ton should be manufactured under the super
vision of the National Board of Health. A res
olution embodying this opinion was adopted.
There was . lively discussion on lard cheese,
and the conclusions arrived st were that the
producer should furnish good, pure, healthy
article, and thepress should educate the people
In the fact that it was a healthy and nutritious

say through your columns that on
last Saturday the 2Sth of May, the
citizens of Frenchman and Cross
Bayous gave a picnic for the bene-
ct of the Sabbath School children,
of Louise Chapel and the Baptist
Church, The attendance was large
and interesting, in fact, the most
pleasant time of the season. The
children came out neatly dressed,
aud marched like well drilled sol.
diers, under flying colors, with all
the grace and lovehness the mind is
capable of concelvlng. We have
the best disciplined schools now in
the district, conducted by Professors
Trotter, Hill, Sanders and Ashburn;
four gentlemen OF sound minds and
of good report. They are careful,
watchiul and awake to duty. Our
children are alive TO their studies
and thoroughly enlisted in their
school. The two schools marched
under their respective banners, and
meeting on halfway grounds be-
tween the two churches formed a
union and marched in line to the
grove selected for the pie nie near
the church, where they listened to
