Sailing Batter.

Batter IS usaally salted IN accord
anca with hedomand Of the market
10 which tits to be sent American
butter IS generally allied at Tie rate
of about one ounce 70 the pound.
Per cream butter has half or less than
half that quantity In the south Of
Europe. indeed ali Latin countries,
oil is in more general use than butter
and nnsalted butter is preferred. The
Partisan custom Of serving butter
entirely unsalted is sometimes aped
in England and some of our Ameri-
can cities, but as a rule, the markets
demand that the butter shall carry
more than half an ounce Of salt.
Unsalted butter will keep forever
provided it is butter and only but
ter. But the butter of commerce is
never pure. 1t retains more or less
of the other properties of the milk,
and it is these which, while they add
very much to its value, are subject tc
almost immediate deterioration, anc
in turn tend to iniure the butter it.
self. Even salt will not long preserve
them Unsalted butter does mo-
".keep." The use Of salt in butter j;
more for havoring than for preserva
tive purposes. The protection anC
preservation Of butter are due IA
more to the package than to the sal
which is put in it. Dairyman.

ABOUT WOMEN.
The Rights Those of England Have
Acquired Under the New Law.
LOUISA NJ. ALCoTT ON THE sUFFRAaIsTs


PERSONALS FROM ALL SECTIONS.
On the first day of this year the rela-
tions of husband and wife i'm England
underwent Il complete change The
Married Woman's Property act of 1882
is the last in a series of legislation en-
tirely superseding the old common law
rule that the rights of wife are merged
in her husband. The results that there
are four classes of married women in
England having distinct rights and LA
bilities. First, those married before
August O. 1870, are entitled to their
wages and earnings, and to any property,
the title to which aecrueg as from to-day.
But their husbands are liable for their
debts before and after marriage. Those
married between 1870 and 1874 are en-
titled, in addition to the above, to all
sums coming to them as next of kin
under intestacy, to sums coming by will
or deed up to 81 900, and to rents of free
holds descending to them as heiresses.
Husbands of these women are not liable
for debts contracted before marriage.
Women married between 1874 and 1888
can make their husbands liable for debts
only to the extent Of the assets which
the latter have received from their
wives. Women married after January
/, OF this year, may acquire, hold or dis
pose Of real estate and personal property,
in the same manner as if unmarried,
withoutthe intervention of trustees. A
wife may now sue her husband, prose-
cute him criminally, and even make him
a bankrupt. 1t remains to be seen
whether or not this change in the law
viii increase the business Of the divorce
courts.
LOUISA NJ. ALcoTT AND THE sUrFRAG-

Miss Louisa III. Alcott sent letter to
Mrs. Lucy Stone on the occasion of the
recent Woman Suffrage Convention in
Boston, in which she said: al am sorry

year; but, though "a superhuous woman,

have been so busy lately trying to bring
up a young sutragist in the way she
should go, and in caring for an old one,
whose long pilgrimage is nearly done,
that lcannot give any report of the state
of the question in Concord at present.
Here, as elsewhere, the worst enemy to
progress seems to be the indifference or
timidity OF women themselves. Those
fitted by intelligence and position I'd
take the lead prefer to hold back and de-
vote their energies to church and char.
tiles, or to narrow rounds of domestic
duties, beyond which they seem afraid
to stir or even look. 1t Is discouragino
to see so many excellent women, blessed
with plenty Of time, money and brains
content with trifes when so much grand
work is waiting to be done, and in the
doing Of it they would find tho genuine
culture, happiness and success which Sc
ennobles life" The young sufffagist re-.
ferred to is the little daughter of Nine
Neireker, who was May Alcott, who died
abroad, and left the little one,whom Mis-.
Alcott has adopted. Her name is Louisa
May Neireker, and she is a winsome little
maiden Of some four years,

Concerning Dogs.
HOW TO DEAL wIrn DOG BITES,

London Lancet.
An absurd superstition prevails that
the bites of all dogs should be either cut
out or cauterized, and the poor animal
destroyed. 1t is not necessary to adopt
either Of these serious courses, provided
the dog is healthy. In fact they are
simply ridiculous, and calculated to pro-
duce groundless fear in the person bit
ten. OF course, in severe cases erysipelas
may superycne, but with ordinary care,
the wound being cleansed by disinfect-
ing lotion, no serious consequences will
follow. In all cases, however, doctor
should be consulted.

The Surest and Best Always.

With the many examples of success
from attention to ones business du-
ties, and, on the other hand, the nu-
merous instances of failure incident
upon carelessneSs, recklessness ana ne
elect of business interests, 1t would
seem that the effect upon reasonable
and intelligent men everywhere would
be the incubation of proper principles
and the adaptation OF sure ana Saie
rules in all their money-inaking enter
prises. But such is not the ease. Yet
il is our mission to peg away III an
effort TO improve the stock interests
on the score of urging stockmen, ana
especially those who raise sheep, to
give their fiocks the fullest attention.
Instances are arising almost daily IN
our great commonwealth furnishing
marked contrasts rs between the care
full. and the negligent stoclIman. Mr..
Aimes. n prosperous young sheep man
of Yorktown, Dewitt county, had
1900 head of sheep in Dewitt aud son III
Gonzales county. During the late
cold weather. he gave personal care to
his flock in Dewitt, fed and sheltered
them. losing but 10 out of the 1000 an
imals, while the 800 head in Gonzales
county received no attention, ana u

an occasional green feeding
when other matter is scarce. Although
claiming white clover as the best grass
for sheep, IL Is not here inferred that
farmers should depend on that alone.
No farmer should pin his faith ON .
single variety of anything, but if a
pasturage for sheep is TO be prepared,
1t should be composed ofmixed grasses,
in which the proportion % white clov-
or should be large. As II needs no Gull
tivation or manuring on good soils, no
additional labor Is required TO secure y
pasture composed principally oft, and
being vigorous as a plant, the close
cropping Of the sheep does not easily
subdue ii. White clover, which has
heretofore seemingly been despised, Is
really one OF our most valuable grasses.
