Joke by Mr.. Evarts-

Lord Coleridge is delighting his English
friends with stories OF his American visit,
and among them with this: He was at Mount
Vernon with Mr.. Evarts, and, talking about
Washington said: al nave heard that he was
a very strong man physically, and that,
standing on the lawn here, he could throw a
dollar right across the river on to the other
bank" Mr.. Evarts paused a moment to
measure the breadth OF the river with his eye.
1t seemed rather a "tall" story, but it was not
Ter him to belittle the father Of the country
in the eyes OF a foreigner. "pon't you be-

true. You know a dollar would 90 farther

George P. Douglas, president of the New
York mercantile exchange, says: "The best
dairy butter in this market comes from tho
country around Elgin, Ills. The creameries
there seem to have found the secret of first
class butter-mnking. Next to Illinois, Iowa
produces the besS butter. New York out
ranks all other states in producing fine
choose. Ohio follows closely after, and is
trying to capture the laureIs now worn by
the Empire state. New England produces
only a small amount of butter and cheese
beyond what is required for her own con-
sumption. Vermont occasionally sends us n
consignment of fine cheese, but she stands
almost alone in tho dairy business in that
