THE FERGUSON DREAMER.
10y Richard Goodman, Jr.
Correspondence Massachusetts, Plooughm.n.

Correspondence Massachusetts, Plooughmsn.l
In your issue of the 14th "Ricardo" makes
inquiry in regard to the building of milk
room. | would strongly advise him to spend
so in the purchase of Ferguson Bureau
Dreamer instead OF spending from $3.50 TO
$3.50 in building his l. room. For the pro
duction of the best butter, "Ricardo" should
bear in mind, we need plenty of pure air at
a temperature of G2 degrees, and in such air
the milk should remain "a hours, and shorld
be set not over three inches deep.
These conditions can be obtained in per-
lection in well built milk room, and by
the use OF an abundance OF ice in the Sum
mer and coal in the Winter; but the milk
room, as well as the coal and ice, will cost a
good deal of money. Now, before building
his milk room ! wish "Ricardo" would try
a Ferguson Crcamer in some large closet or
some small room in his house, any room
which he can devote exclusively to the milk
and butter Or ii he has no such room. and
decides to build one, let him build his room
in the ordinary way, with clapboards, sheath
ing paper, lining boards, an air space between
the studding, and then the lath, plaster, and
with plenty of windows Then instead of
spending money upon double sides, or eur
red OUT Innings, or charcoal or sawdust
packing, lie, him put a Ferguson in this SIM
+ lie room. and II his conditions are not I'M
usual, he will find that he can, with mod
crate amount Of ice and a minimum Of labor,
keep his milk right along, day in, day out
at w degrees, though the thermometer may
mark " degrees out doors in the shade and
even SO degrees in the room.
or course, there is nothing better than the
carefully made room which you suggest (with
shallow open settins) but my observation and
experience lead me to believe that, with the
majority OF butter ma+crs in New England,
much money can be saved and much build
ing of new rooms obvia,ed by the use of the
Ferguson Creamcr which having now be.
come well acquainted wilh-ufter trying al
other methodist like better and better every
day.

torial treatment of the question sets forth
very inteligently all that there is to be
said upon it
is 1t at all likely that the threat to
keep the states of the south out of the
money market of the old world will have
any influence with them?"
The South has borrowed comparative
ly little money from the other side, and
it is my belief that even though it was
proffered to it it would now borrow less .
Can the south find all the capital that
it needs for the developement of its re-
| sources at the North?"
''Well, if we amt we can do without
it, responded the senator laughing;
chats the way individuals have to do,
and suppose States can't do any better.
But, seriously, there isn't thingin the
legal proposition or in the legal PROPOSE
or in the practical proposition to influ-
s1ce the states of the south. We don't
propose to get scared at the threat not
| to loan US money"

SPANISH TURBULENCE
More Outbreaks Of ReyOlutiOnists in
Military Precautions.

MADRID, Aug 9--There have been fresh
outbreaks in Spain. A hastily summoned
cabinet council resolved to suspend the con
stitutional guarantees throughout the coun-
try and declare state of siege wherever
necessary.
The fresh risings alluded to in n previous
dispatch are in Numancia. A cavalry regi
mcnt reyolted in Santo Domingo near Lo
grono. The rinGleaders are a lieutenant and
some sergeants.
Military precautions have been adopted
here The officials are reticent, but they
claim that the Barcelona insurgents have
deem dispersed in the mountains by troops
and six captured. The province is, they
say, tranquil.
Logrono officials telegraph that five soldiers
who took part in the outbreak at SantC
Domingo have surrendered They declare
that the regiment was deceived, and believed
it was going to parade when the outbreai
took place.
The remainder of the rebels are actively
pursued by columns of troops

That Settles It.
Brought into Competition with the World,
the Best carries off the Honors.


At the great Centennial Exhibition of 1876, the
leading products of all the branches of the Worlds
Industry were assembled at Philadelphi. To carry
of prize in the face of that tremendous compe-
tition was a task OF no ordinary difficulty lnven-
tons and preparations for the alienation of pain
and the of disease were present in the great
est possible variety, representing the skill and
profouRdest study the age, and it may be Of
vital Importance TO you, personally, to know that
the highest and only medal given to rubber Pc
rous plasters. was iwardol to the manufacturers
Of BENSoN's POROUS PLASTER, by the fol
lowing jury:
DR.. WA. RoTH. Surgeon-General Prdssian Army.
j. II. THOMPSON, A. NJ, Nj. D.. Washington, De.
c. WHITE, NJ D., New Orleans.
ERNEST FLEIscH, NJ D., Austria.
The decision was afterwards confirmed by the
medical jury at the last Paris Exposition. Know
ing the value Of such high and unbiased testimony
the medical profession, both in the United States
and in Europe, qaickly threw aside the old, slow
acting plasters they had been using, and adopted
Benson's in their regular practice. That physi-
clans and surgeons of the broadcast reputation did
this, distinctly proves the intrinsic merit OF the
article
Il is no more than just to add that the average
physician of to-day is not dominated by the pref
udices which retarded the progress and modified
the successes Of his predecessors Of not more
than twenty-five years ago. He accepts hints
from all quarters ard endorses and adopts demon
strated healing agents Wherever he finds them.
The right of Benson's Capcne Porous Plaster
TO stand al the head of all external applications
whatsoever, for the mi igaton or ca.e of disease,
is no longer questioned.
Let the purchaser, however, be on his guard
against limitations. The genuine has the word
