How Long Can Cheese BE Kept!

This is question often asked but sell
dom satisfactorily answered. Most OF
the cheese makers will say that in Ameri-
ca, owing to atmospheric conditions,
cheese cannot be kept any length of time
with anything like safety. Now, if this
proposition is true, cannot American
genius overcome it? We believe it can
be done. but will not now undertake TO
demonstrate how. but we desire to relate
a little circumstance showing that cheese
can be kept for an indefinite period.
We were recently shown a small pack
age of cheese which was two years and
four months old, and which was fine in
flavor. of good texture and very palatabe.
This cheese was made in Mr.. John New
mans Springbrook factory, near Elgin,
Ill two years and four months age, and
soon after being made it passed through a
process which has not yet been made
public, aud was placed in small tin cans,
then set away in an ordinary room. Three
cans soon after exploded, but seven OF
them remained intact, and were opened Il
few days ago with tho above result. This
process may or may not be patented 1t
looks as if this way of putting up cheese
might prove to be the best, especially for
use on shipboard, in warm climates, etc.
The packages can be made of any desired
weight, and can be easily packed for ship
ment.
OF the ten cans thus put up, as above
stated, three of them we're lost because
they were not properly cared for. This
experiment may result in no little good,
as it will furnish a way whereby cheese
may be shipped to any part of the world
at any season OF the year.
We give it up; but Mrs. Celia Martin
of West Randolph has kept one ten years
already. 1t appears well outside, though
how it would "open" no one can tell;
but we think it should be proved about
the first time we get to West Randolph.
Mrs. Martin used to make Grst,class
cheese, and it would be pity to have it
spoiled by too long keeping.

ESSIN ENGLAND.

The Salvation Army in England has ex cited much hostility among the lower classes on account of the crusade it has car. ried on against beer and gin. Mir. Jennings,
 the experienced observer who keeps the r, oaders of the New York World informed COL 'cerning English matters in his last letter defeA dds the Salvation Army and gives some intereA ting information about the progress of tempera nee in England.
 Mir. Jel nings says the upper classes have reformed It is no longer the custom to drink wine after dinner until the majority of the company are under the table. In fact, he says, it is astonishing how little wine is drank nowadays by people who we'll af- ford to drink it. For on thing, the doctors have set their faces 8 good deal against the use of stimulants. Almost every eminent English physician will now place his pa- tients on very small allowance-say pint of wine at the utmost at dinner, and no other alcoholic liquor either before or afterwards.
 But while MT. Jennings speaks thus cheer ingly concerning the drinking habits of the upper classes, he says that no one who has not lived in England can form the least idea of the extent to which intemperance is in dulged in by an enormously large proportion of the population. The national expenditure in England is large-over eSO, ,OOO, OOO-but the amount annually spent in drinks is much larger, and MT. Jennings says: eff the read CT had seen as much of this (the evils of in- temperance) as have he would not laugh at what I am sndeavoring to put before him and accuse me of passing off temperan ce sermon under the disguise of a London letter; but, on the contrary, he would feel shocked at the fearful prevalence of a vice which seems to give rise to more crimes and more unhappiness than all the other frailties known to mankind.''
 Other organizations besides the Salvation Army are fighting intemperance in England ''Of late," says MT. Jennings, "I have mo- ticed good many men in the streets of Lon don with 8 little piece of blue ribbon in their button holes They belong to another Army whose object also is, to deal whatever blows they can at the demon of drink. Then there seems to be a yellow ribbon organiza- tion coming into the field, intended to coun- teract the operations of the other two. It is called the Moderation Army and invites all moderate drinkers to join it's ranks. If these three armies were to meet some day the crash would be terrific, unless one or two of them acted like the valiant foe recently cap tured by our only General in Egypt"
 The workingmen of England have for many years been open to the reproach of intemperance, and it is high time that there was a reform in their drinking habits. If the Salvation Army, or any other army, can do anything to bring about this reform it should have support in it's work
