Three Kinds of Butter.
Farm and Flreside.


Those who have watched our market
quotations will have observed that
Creamery butter is constantly quo
ted from three to six cents per pound
higher than Dairy, and this, in turn,
from six to ten cents higher than
Common, and no doubt many have
wondered what practical difference
there can be between these various
grades.
Creamery butter is simply pure,
sweet, well made butter, no better
than is made at times by many far
mer's wives, but is made by persons
who by devoting their time and at
tention to this work alone-not ma
king it a secondary TO other house
hold cares-and by being supplied
with every necessary appliances for
controlling temperature, cleanliness,
etc, having aquired such skill in it
that the quality OF their butter is of
perfect uniformity from one end of
the year to the other consequently,
consumers know Just what they Will
get in buying it.
DAIRY" butter is often Just as good
as 4" Creamery " but is made by per-
sons who are largely occupied by other
duties, to which the dairy is second
airy; consequently, there is always a
liability that some particular lot Of
butter shall be a little off flavor, owing
to neglect OF the cows, milk. or butter,
at critical period. The large scale
upon which creamery butter is made
is one of the necessary factors to its
uniformity; it is next to impossible to
make such butter from a single cow,
or even from two or three cows, be
cause of the changes constantly occur
ring in the milk, owing to changes of
food, remoteness from calving, etc
But when the milk is drawn from two
or three hundred COWS, some Of which
are weekly coming in fresh, it will be
seen that one potent cause of irregu-
larity in the quality of the butter is
eliminated.
Common" butter appears on far
too many tables. 1t is either white,
salvy, rancid, or tainted with the
odors of Unclean cellars, or all of these
combined. It's cost of manufacture is
as great, often greater, than that of
the best creamery, but through ig-
norance or neglect of some OF the very
simple essentials of regularity, or
cleanliness in the care of the cows or
of the milk or butter, its quality is
ruined.

The geese, however, did not look on

A Train peIayed BY Antelopes.

tlso lNcv Independent
3 The west bound train between Green
River and Granger, on the Union Pa
cilic, recently encountered a flock of
200 or 1000 antelopes. The snow
was quite deep, and drifted in places,
and the antelopes were running on
the roadbed, finding that the easiest
road to travel on When they were
first encountered many of them we're
killed and the engineer seeing at
once that the train might be derailed
unless it were slowed up, decreased
the speed The autelopes kept short
distance ahead of the engine, and
were strung along the road for quar-
ter Of a mile They weuld occasion
ally get some distance from the en-
CINE, and then they would stop, turn
round and watch the headlight until
the engine was fairly upon them.
They delayed the train half or three.

The Profits of Eggs

The Poultry World thinks it is
more profitable to raise eggs than
chickens. This is what it says: I'VE
make no allusion to those large es-
adjustments where raising chickens
as chickens for near city market is
undoubtedly paying business. But
we address the common poultry rails
er, living perhaps a considerable dis
lance from market, who wishes to
make the most OF his stock And to
such we say raise every pullot your
premises will Accommodate Treat
them in such a manner that they will
lay early and constantly during the
winter, and you will make more
money than you can by raising
chickens to sell for broilers unless at
the fancy prices such things bring in
cities. Most country breeders have
no such market for what they chance
to have to sell, and the small prices
they obtain at the country hotel or
the hosse of the wealthy citizen, by
no means pays for the extra trouble
and care that early chickenscost. OF
course if you have large number of
fowls, there would necessarily be
cockerels and old hensto fatteR for
sale, but do not make 1t your business
to sell dead stock instead of making
live hens give you hundreds of eggs
every year Of their lives.

General Hancock and the Camel.


When Hancock was stationed in
this city in 1851. as Quartermaster
of the Southern District of California,
he was an athlete of no small preten-
sions. Among the animals used for
transportation over which he had
charge was q number OF camels, some
of which were the possessors of vicious
tempers. One, a large buck, was a
continual source Of trouble, and he
generally made it lively for the un-
lucky individual who had occasion TO
90 within the inclosure in which he
was confined On one occasion Han
cock went into the corral on some
matter Of business, but as the old
camel saw him he started on the dead
run for his unlUcky victim, and soon
Graco Roman wrestling match of the
most important style was taken place.
The hero ofGeltisburg, with a haven't
got-long to-live expression on his face,
was first thrown INTO the air, his heels
pointing straight toward the heavens,
and the next moment hurled with
irresistible force to the earth. Several
rounds were fought without Han
cock losing his grip, but the camel
was just getting into the right trim
for an all-day fight, and, being with
in a few feet Of the fence, Hancock
watched his opportunity, and sudden
ly released his hold and started for
the house. How he got over the ter.
foot fence has never been satisfoctori-
" settled. as Hancock was always
reticent on the subject.

OFFICIAL PLUNDERERs.

The examination of Brewster
Cameron before the Springer Commit
tee shows the prevalence of an out
rageous system of plumber and perse-
cuuon. In his testimony of the oper-
atoms of deputy marshals in Georgia
and Alabama he gives a sample of
what he says prevails. A man was
found cutting down a tree on Govern
ment land adjoining his own farm.
The deputy marshal says: 81 have a
warrant for your arrest The man
says: "Why, everybody does this.
1t is next to my ground ana nobody
seems to think anything of the mat
ter" The deputy then gets out of
him the fact that A, b, G, ID. E and
4. neighbOrs, have cut trees and gets
him to repeat this statement before an
infOrmer. The deputy then gets war
rants for each one AS these offenders
are generally respectable and respOn
slble people a simple notice would e
cure their attendance upon court but
having arranged one meeting and sat
isied himself of the facts, the deputy
makes an agreement with them to
meet him at some halfway point,
from which he escorts them to court.
for if they were permitted to come all
the way as they would do, it would
spoil the deputy's mileage Now for
this service he charges mileage for
each man, horse and buggy, hire for
guards, meals for self and prisoners,
although the man has been under
no guard, the deputy has never
been at his house, paid for no meals,
hired no buggy, and knows his pris
oner would come all the way as well
as half and with no expense whatever
to the government. By this ingenious
arrangement he makes money out Of
each of the dozen cases He reports
his expense account and fees to the
marshal and they are sworn to. The
