There is no room for your church
here, was the remark of a member Of
another denomination to a Presbyterian
pastor of small church. The pastor
wisely said nothing, but went to work,
carefully avoiding antagonism, and in
time good, self-supporting church was
established, without weakening two
churches of other denominations. The
town contained population of about
2 500 souls, of whom 125 were enrolled
in one church and go in another. Here
was field where only 1876 persons out
of 2 500 were protesting Christians, and
no room for another church." A sur
vey Of this town will show that the ratio
OF churches to population in the smaller
towns and villages is even greater than
this, and that where the ground is not
fully covered by one denomination, the
organization of another denominational
church acts as stimulus to religious
work, and where there is Christian fell
lowship, both are strengthened and built
up. 1t is also true, although hard for
some good men to learn, that where or
thodox pastors Of evangelical churches
cordially cooperate in Christian work,
their own churches enjoy greater pros
perity, and they IL emselves receive
special blessings. Herald and Pre8byter

Mr.. Spurgeon told good story at
Stockwell recently. "I was told, said
he, of a man who was 80 mean and
stingy that he never gave anything to
anybody. But, said 1, he gave me
something once. In my early days, when
my salary was G45 year, my hat had
got shabby, and this man at one OF our
meetings asked me to speak with him
He then put into my baud Is. l., and
said the Lord had bidden him to give it
to me- At our next meeting he asked
me to pray that he might be delivered
from the sin of covetousness. I asked
him what particular form LIS covetous-
ness took. He replied, Way the Lord
told me to give you ten shiilings, but l
only gave you seven and xbence, and
then he gave the young preacher the
half crown of which he had deirauded
him. Has it not sometime happened
that the Lord has told steward Of his
to give sovereign or a fve-pound note,
or hundred, or a thousand pounds, to
some work in which He and all heaven
are interested But only part was
given, and the steward, not being as hon
est as Mr.. Spurgeon covetous friend
the balance remains to this day to the
debit of his account with God. Had it
not better be paid at once - The Chris
tan.

How to Spoil Butter.

Overchurning RUNS the texture and
changes the proper waxiness to a dis
agreeable greasiness. This is the more
easily done in churn with dashes,
which will press the butter against the
sides of the churn and squeeze and rub
it until it is spoiled. Too long churning
spoils the quality by the oxidation of the
butter, and the premature formation of
strong favored acids in in it, the full
presence of which we can rancidity. 1t
may be spoiled at too high temper
ature, by which it is made soft and oily
and of greasy texture and flavor No
subsequent treatment can remedy this
error. 1t may be spoiled before the
cream reaches the churn by keeping it
too long, or, what is practically the same
by keeping it in too warm place SOP
is about the right temperature if the
cream is kept week, if it is kept at $50
three days is long enough. White specks
are produced in butter by overchurning
or by having the cream too sour. Either
ofthese faults produces curd in the milk,
and the small flakes of this cannot be
washed out of the butter So will the
use Of salt containing specks of lime,
which unite with the butter and form
insoluble lime soap.

In Villas 8OyhOod.

A story is told of Postmasters General
Villas in his boyhood by the old gossips
of Chelsea, VT, his native place, winch
may or may not be Characteristic of him
at the present time When, he was a
little boy, not yet out of skirts, he be-
came much disgusted at the prosiness
of a Methodist minister, a friend of his
parents, who lived in the same town.
This one was invited to dine with them
one day, and asked to offer prayer before
eating. He began praying in the long
winded way which was characteristic
of those times, and has, unfortunately,
not wholly departed from our own. Fin
ally, the boy, who was impatient for his
dinner, could wait no longer, and when
the divine hesitated for the proper word
little longer than was his wont, he
clapped his knife sharply on the table,
and, having attracted everybody's atten-
ton, cried out, For Christ's sake.
Amen" SO confusing the speaker that he
was enabled to begin eating without
further delay.

Young trees for the PraIrles.

J. Fl. Carlton. Lake Village, Ark,
writes the American Agriculturist l
frequently see inquiries and suggestions
In regard to the propagation of forest
trees ON the prairie lands of Nebraska,
Dakota and the neiehboring states of the
northwest, and wishing TO know where
to get the seed, etc. In this section of
the country the annual overflows wash
the seeds nuts, acorns, etc. of the for
ests into the immense piles or drifts, .
and the young trees spring up out OF
these in masses, not unlike a thickly
seeded wheat field Thus they grow un-
til they crowd each out, or until the
cattle browse them down. From these
beds seeding trees can be taken up by
the roots, at little cost, and they could
be shipped and replanted in almost any
of the northwestern states. Numerous
species of the oak, the elm, the ash, box
elder, hickory, rig-nut, pecan and the
persimmon and several others from
tw elve to thirty inches in height, can be
gathered in our swamps this fall or next
spring. They could be packed and ship

boats which make direct connection
with st. Louis or ST. Pau, Mimi,

How Shall the Railroad Enter ?

The recent visit of Passenger Agent
Fee, of the Northern Pacific and the
talk about that road building into Butte,
has naturally revived interest in the
subject and caused much discussion as to
the easiest, most feasible and most pro-
ftable route While most of the ground
has been looked over by the engineers
of the company, there are in Butte a
number of eminently practical Inen who
have, as prospectors, tramped all over
the territory, that would naturally be
etselecd for the route, and their opinion
is worth something. Speaking with
John Duce, one of the men referred to
he said he thought the branch should
strike the main line at Garrison City,
thence follow the Jefferson and cross the
divide at the Homestake, which was in
hls opinion the easiest and most practic-
able of any route. Further, that on that
line the road would strike the coal belt
and thus open up to the people good
supply of that much needed article
The produce of the valley would also be
afforded an easy market, and ranches
would necessarily increase and multiply.
For all these reasons and others, the
gentleman mentioned was certain that
the route he suggested was the best that
could be selected.-Miner

The GaIIatIn County Exhibit.

Some time ago request was received
from Emigrant Agent Groat, of the
Northern Pacific railroad, asking for
samples of grain, ore, etc, from this
country to be placed upon exhibition at
the Minnesota State Fair and elsewhere
throughout the east No response was
made. A few days before the fair Mr..
Groat telegaphed to earn how much
material was gathered. and then few
of our citizens started out to gather up
small lot Of sample. By going directly
to the farmers and gathering the speci-
mems they have been enabled to make
small display Of grains, grasses and veg
etables. not halfthe amount that should
have been sent, however, nor as fine
lot of specimens as could have been
gather had they taken the matter in
hand before. Among the lot sent were
wheat, oats. barley, grasses, vegetables
and very choice and valuable collection
of ore from the nearest mining districts.
kilograms have been received by Mr.
Walter Cooper, who had the matter in
charge, stating that the specimens had
arrived and that they would add much
to Montana's display It is estimated
that considerably over 5000 in gold was
sent away lin the ore specimens The
finest sheaf Of oats was from the farm of
Mr.. Waterman, it was six feet six inches
high and came from field yielding 125
bushels per acre. The finest cabbage
came from the garden Of Mr.. Lamb, Of
Bozsman, itweighed 20 pounds. Mon.
ster turnips potatoes. beats, etc, were
forwarded, and although it is not ex-
pected that our vegetables will be as
| large as those raised by eastern men,
who raise vegetables for the especial
purpose of taking prizes, it is doubtful
whether anyone can produce taller OF
heavier grain. Since the exhibit has
been forwarded there are many who
claim that they have taller grain than
that sent. To those we would say that
it is not yet too late to forward the spec
linens for other eastern fairs, and that
all such grain brought to the CHRoNlcLE
Office win be forwarded east free o

Building Improvements.

The summer of 1885 has not been
characterized by great activity in the
way of building in Bozeman, nor is the
number a mean showing, considering
the rapid developments made during the
past three wears, stimulated by the ad-
vent of railroad There seems to be
an inclination to build better class of
buildings, warmer and more substantial,
and the day of skeleton frames is appar-
emily gone by. There seems to be an
increased demand for houses to rent and
in every instance substantial houses are
wanted.
Among the new buildings erected this
summer we notice that of A. Gott-
schalk, substantial brick dwelling, of
comfortable an commodious proportions.
Frank Suite has also provided him
self with handsome brick residence.
main building 14x26, with wing 14x14,
just finished Mr.. Suite has chosen a
very pretty site on Black street, and has
a residence that is an ornament to that
portion of the city.
Col May is building large frame
dwelling on his valuable site, opposite
the PRESBYTERIAN church. When tlnish-
ed it will enhance the value of property
on Central avenue and give the Col
pleasant and comfortable residence. The
inside arrangements of rooms and clos
cts, pantrys, ETC., has been given great
consideration and the Colonel is to be
congratulated upon having as convenient
an interior arrangement as any one in
the city.
Mr.. VIM. Beall has erected a handy
little cottage on Bozeman street for rent,
just finished.
w. Y. Smiths new house on Menden-
hall street, is as pretty as a picture, as
convenient and comfortable as it could
to be made Mr.. Smith has put consider
able money in the building and has one
that he should be proud of. He has also
taken great interest in his yard, and by
planting trees and shrubbery has made
it very pretty indeed.
John Ingram is now engaged in build
ing large residence on the west side.
be finished and occupied before winter
sets in. 1t is of modern style, well pro-
vided with wings and other convenient
adjuncts, and as Mr. Ingram is carpen-
ter himself we expect splendid speci-
man of his handicraft.
The NJ, E. Parsonage is receiving its
finishing touches, and will be very
pretty building.
Nelson Story's handsome house has
It's foundations ready for the brick, but
will not be finished this year. In the
meantime Mr.. Story has pushed forward
the ork on his handsome brick stables,
situated directly in the rear of his new
residence, and now has them about
completed.
Speith & Krug have not been idle and
as a result have in course of erection a
stone and brick building 25x6l, intended
for a "bottling" establishment in con-
nection with their brewery.
Sam Lewis is building an addition to
his residence.
The Me. Church, south, is progressing
slowly, owing to Contractor hrcham-
banlt's inability to procure the hard
wood furnished from St. Panl as prompt
ly as he required The building is to be
done in month. 1t is of brick and
stone, situated on Church street, near
| the school honse.

siderable experience in teaching and
leeturing in eastern schools, and is well
fitted to give students all the advantages
Of a so-called eastern education.

will be felt sooner or later.
There are very few agricultural dis
tricts that have been titled for as many
years as the Gallatin valley that can
show anywhere near as fine and rs
heavy a growth of cereals. 1t will have
the effect of calling attention to the lar
gest and most fertile valley in Montana,
in way calculated to be beneficial.
