Changes in Dairying Processes.

The Improvements which have been
made IN the appliances and practices of
dairying within the last quarter Of
century are almost wonderful OF the
Improvements the most notable have
appeared within the last five years, and
there is reason to hope that the general
process of the next five years will be
even greater than that which has been
seen. The formidable competition of
oleomargarine has done much TO incite
dairymen TO greater efforts TO reduce
the cost and improve the quality of
their products, and has done more to
drive the farmer from the business of
making second and third class butter at
home, and into sending his milk to the
creamery. To this extent the oleo man
utacturerS have been Of service to their
rivals and natural enemies-the cream
cry men. To greater extent they
have served the consumer by providing
substitute which is at least palatable.
even if it should prove to be all that the
more radical of lis opponents declare it
is, and the more fair minded, but vet
uncompromising, of its enemies admit
that it is not vile compound of I'M
wholesome and disgusting materials.
One of the most remarkable of the
machines now coming into use, and one
that if generally used will nuke greater
changes in butter-making than has been
made by almost any other means. is
machine which by centrifugal force
separates the cream from milk and the
dirt from both in n very short tune At
a recent trial of one of these machines
at Madrid, n. Y, mt which a number of
dalrymen were present, IN nine minutes
thirty-one pounds of cream were Separ-
ated from l23 pounds of milk This
was at the rate of $50 pounds of milk
and POI pounds of cream per hour. The
cream was churned Immediately after
the separation, yielding 81 pounds of
butter, OF at the rate of 362 pounds per
hour, or at the rate of 1913 pounds of
milk for each pound of butter from
cream not allowed to ripen. Describing
the advantages offered by the csntrifu-
gal machine the American Dairyman
says; Whether yeu buy crooks, tin
pans, large pans, patent pans. or any
one of a dozen creamers now IN the
market, there is more or less water and
Stops about them all and this accom-
panying dampness is an absolute curse
in any dairy-room. 1t is something for
the dairy-woman TO mop at and scrub
at all her life; then ice is a heavy, clum-
sy, and slippery thing to handle, and
wet boxes must be scrubbed out early
and often to keep them sweet and clean.
The combined cost of room, utensils,
and creamer will be more than CEN
trifugal separator. Time, also-the
great element in good butter-making
is reduced to the minimum with the
new machine

Rejoicing that his life has been pro-
longed until the general judgment of
our fellow countrymen is united in the
wish that that wrong were righted in
his person, for the Democracy of the
United States we offer to him IN his
Withdrawal from public cares not only
our respectful sympathy and esteem,
but also that best homage of freemen-
the pledge of our devotion to the prin-
ciples and the cause now inseparable in
the history of this republic from the
abors and the name of Samuel j.
Tilden.
With this statement of the hopes,
principles and purposes of the Demo-
cratic party, the great issue of reform
and change in administration is sub
mitted to the people in calm confidence
that the popular Voice will pronounce
in favor of new men and new and more
favorable conditions for the growth of
industry, the extension of trade, the en-
ployment and due reward of labor and
of capital and the general welfare of
the whole country.

The Democratic Platform.


The Democratic platform is volum-
nous document 1t is the longest of
the kind ever promulgated by con-
vention, and is literally a Washington
monument in its word building. 1t is
a typical declaration of principles for a
party with so long and corrupt a record,
and the party will accept it without a
murmur. 1t is doubtful if any intelli-
gent man after careful perusal can get
an intelligent meaning as to its real i'm
port and intent. 1t is superfluous in its
utterances and almost incomprehensible
to the most careful reasoner 1t deals
in almost every political issue extant,
yet makes not one clear, and takes no
definite position on any of them. 1t is
mass of dreary verbiage. Its place
is not in the newspapers. 1t is too long
for magazine article, and the only
place it would fit with grace and ele-
gance and be thoroughly appreciated is
between the covers of the Congressional
Globe, beside the congressman bun
combe speech that no one reads or no
one cares to.
While it covers much, it is intended
that that is the better way, rather than
making its position too clear and
straightforward. Ii met with the latter
difficulty four years ago and it intended
to avoid any such difficulty this time.
Then they believed in a tariff for reye-
nue. only now it is given the idea that
the Democratic party adheres to ''free
trade policy, but so framed as to avoid
giving alarm and designed to enable al
most any kind of tariff man to stand
on it with perfect immunity of cons
ciencc. 1t is either delusion and a
snare or it IS nonsense, and the latter
supposition is probably correct and that
the tariff reformers agreed that such
cloudy sentiments should be expressed,
as to be absolutely destitute Of meaning.
This is The vital issue in many states
this year, and if the Democratic ticket
is voted by as many "roorbacks as this
plank is designed 10 catch the campaign
will be easily settled. The platform in
one sense or another advocates nearly
every unsound theory and practice the
Democratic party has been guilty of in
the past. The Democratic party must
still be judged as the free trade party !;
and the enemy of the industrial and
trade pursuits of the country. 1t is still
the enemy of the laboring class and of
the masses of the people. In conclu-
sion if is believed the Democratic plat
form obviates the necessity of any other
campaign publications. This will an
swer in lieu of everything else and will
take the time of the average Democratic
voter from now until election, to deci-
pher its meaning and be ready then, if
at all, to vote.

During the recent session of Congress
more than ten thousand bills were intro
duccd, Of which less than two hundred
became laws. There must be something
radically wrong about the methods by
which such mass of legislation is pro-
posed and smothered in the mill. Many
of the bills thus killed in the committee
rooms ought to have been enacted into
laws, and might well have displaced
some that were passed.

THE ART OF FINDING.

eff you can get that queer.lookiug duck
to talk, he may give you wrinkle, said
a policeman to . reporter, pointing out
man whom the reporter had often seen
lettering around the newspaper offices as
the last of the reporters, editors and com
positors bend their steps homeward. His
age was probably about 45, although the
weather. beaten look of hiR face made him
seem older than he really was His slight
figure was bent forward at the shoulders,
and his eyes were closely bent upon the
pavement as he walked slowly along.
81 don't want no competitors IN my
biz, he said, "tho' faint every one who'd
have the perseverance or the gifts to follow
it. I'm finder, that's what l am, and
I'm monopolist."
"What is finder p asked the reporter.
"pm finder eff things that are lost !;
that is, hunts for EN- good deal oftener
than finds em. You amt no idea how
many val'ble things is Loaf every day in
this city-jewels. watches, purses, rolls of
money, dogs and children. Not half the
folks who loses thinks to advertise, but
some does. They rush to the newspaper
offices, and ] waits here to get the earliest
copies and read the advertisements.
"Is it possible you find things that have
been lost so many hours before? p
Sometimes, but not often. If l makes
good hit once in two weeks I'm satisfied.
just as often don't make one in month.
You see, the adj says very gently, lost
tween somewhere and somewhere Well,
l goes and 1 PAGES that district, and my
eyes has got so sharp that they can tell the
CLINT of d'mond or any stone from bit
of broken glass on the darkest night.
Why, you and lots of people walks over
lost things every day and never sees 'em.
You walks with your eyes in the air fixed
on the folks and the windows, or the pave
ment one hundred feet ahead of you. Mine
is always close by my own feet, and walks
mighty slow. The cutters is the great
place for lost things; they get dropped
there by the women who are alus in a
hurry crossing roads, or they get knocked
in by feet or dresses. The other day was
crossing street and saw a muddy bit of
cardboard lying in the gutter Ten thou.

GETTING EVEN WITH THE CONDUCTOR.

The last time l went to Boston," con-
fded a thin, consumptive.looking traveller
on the Eastern road to a fellow passenger,
81 the conductor grew monotonous. He in.
sisted on examining my ticket at every
station, and grew restless as we passed
watering troughs. This time, the traveller
continued, as he looked anxiously toward
the car door, I've play a change of pro.
gramme, and the boxes are all taken" As
the conductor entered with a pompous
" ticket, please, the stranger quietly pre-.
scented a single trip ticket for the next sta
ton. The next time he entered the IN.
known handed him a mileage ticket, fol-
lowing it later with sportman's ticket for
Labrador. As the conductor was passing
him on the next round, the traveller
pressed an emigrant's ticket for Puget
Sound into his hand, and then tried to get
him to take a first. class passage to Sing
Sing with sleeper check. Didn't | Just

manded the astonished conductor. "Must

the traveller, burying himself in the last

through the car, and the stranger con-
fronted the conductor with Florida
