BOGUS RUTTER mn NEW

BOGUS BUTTER IN NEW YORK.
The report of the committee of the New
York senate which has been investigating the
adulterstion of food contains much that is
interesting though not very pleasant The
adulteration of butter by taIlow oil, bone oil
and lard oil was found in almost every town
and city in the State, and in an amount
which equals half the production of the nat
ural article. The Imitation is 80 disguised
that often it cannot be detected except by
chemical analysis. Out of thirty samples of
alleged butter purchased by the committee
in New York city only ten were genuine. No
labels to distinguish the pure from the boz
gus butter are displayed, as required by the
existing law. Bogus butter is largely pur-
chased by saloons, boarding houses and
second class hotels. The poorer qualities of
bogus butter sell for from twenty to thirty
cents, better grades at forty or forty-ive
cents. The cost of manufacture ranges from
twelve to eighteen cents, the average being
fourteen cents. The manufacture in the
State of New York is chiefly car
ried on in New York city and
Brooklyn, several concerns manufactur-

fats brought from the West, from France
and from Italy. The bulk OF the bogus but.
ter is manufactured in the West and sold in
New York, to the detriment of the States
dairy interests. Many dairy farmers have
been driven out of the business in oonse-
.quence. The loss to the State is estimated ut
ffoln So, 900. 600 to $io,0oo,0oe ysarly. The
nna
pounds of the product are sold
annually in the State, and this
illegitimate business is breaking up our
export trade. The effect of the deception in
the trade is detrimental to business morals.
Butterine can be sold at eighteen cents less
than natural butter. The committee quotes
extensively from the evidence obtained to
show the evil moral, commercial and sanitary
effects of adulterations. The use of nitric
andsulphuric acids in deodorizing adulterated
butter is particularly condemned.
The committee seems to have been deeply
impressed by the evils of bogus butter, for it
recommends that after a certain time the
manufacture of the stuff be prohibited. This
is radical accommodation, too radical
probably. 1t will, we imagine, be very hard
work to get any such prohibition ordered,
for, though bogus butter undoubtedly hurts
the dairy interests of New York. some of It
is not harmful to the human body, according
to the testimony of experts, including Pro-
fessor Brewer of this city. It will probably
continue to be sold and eaten in New York.
1t ought to be possible, however, to prevent
its sale as the genuine article. There is Law
enough already to accomplish this if It were
only enforced

A Welcome Home to Matthew Arnold.

[Fron the London Daily News
Mr.. Matthew Arnold starts tomorrow for
Europe ON board the Servia. To his last lee
ture he good-naturedly invited the school
masters of New York, members, as it were, of
his own profession. Mr.. Arnold is not, indeed,
schoolmaster, but he is the son of school.
master, and school inspector. The author
of French Eton has shown often enough
that his heart is in his business. He seems
always to regards himself as didactic and
educational force His poetry (though ad-
mirable) is didactic, his disinterested attempts
to convert the middle classes are educational,
and when he was professor of poetry at Ok
ford he deliberately set himself to instruct
the translators OF Homer, especially I'm
Newman and Mr.. Ichabod Wright. The
shrieks of the pupils we're uttered in pam
phlets which may still be purchased on the
stall. In his later works, Mr.. Arnold has
sedulously striven to train up the public in
the way he thinks il should go, and he has
not spared the rod. But the more this anus
ing professor has piled the rod, the more his
countrymen come up smiling; and the harder
he sWished, the more they purchased his
books. This is a peculisrity of the British
public. Far from stoning the prophets, they
secure for them wide circulation. Mr.. Car
lyle, Mr.. Ruskin, Mr.. Arnold, all of them are
harsh schoOlmasters, and all of them highly
popular writers.
Mr.. Arnold has expressed his satisfaction
and pleasure in what he saw in America He
speaks of returning, and may yet live to
write a poem ON New York Revisited. On
the other side of the water, Mr.. Arnold spoke
his mind with perfect freedom, SO he will
have less perilous stuff to unburden himself
of on this side. He said what he thought
about Emerson to Bostonian audience, and
mingled blame with praise in his criticism of
American newspapers. Though he improved
in his elocution, he never seems to have ac-
quired all the arts of well-RrAced lecturer.
Oxford men seldom or never do. The custom
Of mumbling out extempore scraps of dis
jointed philosophy and learning used to pre-
vail at Oxford, where rhetoric was despised
by teachers too wise or too indolent to arrange
their work with neatness and utter 1t with elo- |
quence. But MIR. Aruold appears to have |
improved good deal under his American |
pupils. His success has doubtless been, as he |
says it always Is, with the literary class. The |

'tchsrmers like the Rev. Joseph Cook" This |

rives bsthybius from two Greek words |

men, though they may not crowd to the land |
ing stage and wave their hats, will be glad to
welcome Mr.. Arnold back to England.
