Petroleum in Sacks.

A factory is in operation in Astrakhan
on the Caspian Sea, engaged in re-
ducing petroleum to the density of a
solid, in order to facilitate and cheaper
the cost of transportation to distant
markets. The process has been pat
ented in Russia, France, England and
America, by Mr.. Ditman, who is
established and is conducting the fac
tory referred to as existing at Astrakhan.
The process seems simple one. The
kerosene is boiled in a large cauldron
with quantity of soap, and the boiling
is continued until evaporation has thor
oughly done its work. 1t is then
poured into iron reservoirs, and when
cool the mixture becomes solid and of
such consistency as to be easily cnt into
pieces Of any size. 1t is readily reduced
to liquid form at any time by an APP
pIication of heat. Refined petroleum
can, while in the solidified form, be
packed in boxes for shipment, or can
be sewn in sacks, and thus transported
without the use of bulky and expensive
casks or cases. There is no danger to
be apprehended while it is in transit
from fire or explosion. It's export in
this form will, it is said, begin this
season. 1t will be transported on
the Baku and Batoum Railway,
passing through Batoum. The
rates of freight and also the, customs
due will be very much reduced below
old rates. Hitherto it has been trans
ported in reservoir cars, and in the
markets of the Eastern German Prov
inces it has sold for less figures than
the American product reaching those
markets by way of Bremen. Russian
petroleum is, SO far as quality is con-
cerned, in every way calculated to be-
come formidable rival of American
petroleum, as for excellence it COM
pares favorably with the best American
product. This new process which does
away with the former expensive pack
age in favor of the cheapest and least
bulky coverings, will have a tendency
to give Russia the control of the Euro
pean petroleum market, unless Amer
lean producers either avail themselves
of Mr.. Ditman's process or manage to
invent something which shall effect the
same purpose, or, if possible, surpass
it. 1t certainly renders it obligatory
upon producers here to bestir them
selves unless they are prepared to see
the petroleum export trade slip quietly
from their hands in acknowledgment of
Russian supremacy. - NeaO England

One of the Nisest precautions to
take when you are baking is to have
the oven perfectly clean, and yet it is
one that is often neglected, and many
an otherwise faultless dish has been

For seriously chapped hands try
this: Scrape cake of brown Windsor

mix it with an ounce of cologne water
and an ounce of lemon juice. Stir this
very thoroughly together, shape it into
cakes, let it harden, and then use it
when you wash your halds.-M T.

The best soil for currants is good
strong loan, quite deep and rather
moist, but not wet; but sandy soil will
do, if made rich and cultivated deep.
Bearing bushes on sandy land should
have annually good dressing of old
manure worked in about the roots in
spring. = Chicago Journal.
The best soil for plants, says John
Thorpe, in the Gardeners Monthly, is
turf from rich pasture, cut two and a
half inches thick, laid closely together
till it has somewhat decayed, then
broken up and mixed with one-third
very rotten manure or leaf-soil. The
leaf-soil can generally be found under
large trees where standing thickly to-
gether.
Farmers should turn their atten-
ton more to butter and egg production
in winter than they generally have done
hitherto. Cows may be SO fed as to
make as good butter or nearly
so in the winter six months as the sum-
mer six months, thus dividing the year
into two equal parts. Some are doing
it; more would if they studied what is
most productive of profit in the dairy
business. So inrespect TO eggs. Fowls
may be so cared for as to lay all winter.
when eggs sell from thirty three to fifty
per cent. higher than in summer. CHI
