COUNTY, ENNSse

SCARCITY or WO0D 1t seems
rather singular that, IN n country
like this, where there is such an
abundance Of timber and water
that the local steamers can barely
obtain enough Of either. This is
particularIy true in regard to fuel.
On this part of the route wood and
water can only be obtained regular
" at one whart-Munk's place, FL
ialgo landing. This is a matter of
great annoyance, and still greater in
convenience to the steamboat men,
who inveigh loudly against this
state of affairs. But the truth is,
people who have hitherto been ems
gagged in the business of getting
out frewood, have generally aban-
doned tie pursuit, for something
from which they can realize a more
liberal margin of profit. Hereto
fore the steamers have been paying
but 50. SO per cord for wood, and as
it costs S1.25 per cord to have the
wood cut, there is not much to be
made out of the business, after the
trouble and expense of hauling and
delivering the wood on the wharf.
Recently the price of wood has ad-
vanced to So per cord. At this rate
there may be something in the bust
ness. We think it might be profit
able for some one in this vicinity,
having the necessary facilities, to
enter extensively into the business
Of supplying the steamers with
wood and water. A person able to
erect a small wharf and water tank,
somewhere on the Fldalgo or
Gucmes shore, where an unfailing
supply of both wood and water
could always be obtained, would
undoubtedly control the entire busi-
ness, not alone Of the local steam
boats, but also Of the many tug
boats plying tn this vicinity.

Tho Secret OF Good Butter.

Every one knows how superior is the
reputation of Philadelphia butter, and
many have the attempts been to account
for 1t. Perhaps the most popular no.
ton was that it was due to the prevail
ence of the "sweet vernal grass" in our
pastures and hay fields-the grass that
often gives SO peculiar fragrance to
meadow hay. But it needed very little
reasoning TO demolish such a theory rs
this. The grass is one of the poorest
for hay or pasture purposes, and scarce
ly exists, except on cold clay lands,
partially shaded places near groves or
low woods. Yet while this grass is the
exception, in low pastures or in the hay
fed to our COWS good butter is the gem
eral rule in all our markets.
1t has long been the opinion of our
best agricultural generalizers OF fact
that we owe much more of the sweet
ness of the butter to the abundance Of
springs and spring houses in our state
than to anything peculiar which grows
in our pastures. Milk has a peculiar
affinity for any odors in the atmosphere,
and water has some; hence whatever
impurities may get into the atmosphere
of the spring house is drawn ont by
running water, and the very best Sc
curity is provided against their being
absorbed by the cream.
We notice this through observing an
inquiry whether the light of kerosene
lamp in n dairy could possibly affect
the quality of the butter. All odors
of every description should be avoided
if the very best brand is desired.
There is one little incident in this
reputation of Philadelphia butter which
must never be forgotten. The follow
ers of Penn made up n large class of
the original farming population. With
all these people cleanliness was es-
pecially one of the virtues. 1t was not
a mere sentiment that it was "next to
goodness" but an every day testimony
in all they did Aided in these cleany
practices by their numerous springs
and spring houses, we have little doubt
we owe to them as much rs TO any other
circumstances the eminent character
which Philadelphia butter enjoys; and
we believe that if other quarters would
give special attention to these little
niceties, as good butter might be had in
any part of the Union as here. Never
theless we are obliged to add that there
is a great deal of poor butter sold in
Philadelphia made in the eastern com-
ties, arising, We think, from these hav-
ing a small dairy churning only half as
often as they should. chicago Herald.

Newmarket. England,

A writer describing Newmarket fifty

language that of Tattersalls; its bust
ness an endless succession of matches

trained every year. From $4,000 e

one in the town bets more or less
