\ Georgia dairyman has figured out
the cost of good butter in that State at
l23 cents pound, where good pastnrage
can be had on easy terms for ten months
in the year, and the butter sells at 25
cents a pound.
Cooperative dairying is no longer an
experiment. 1t has been before the
country long enough TO demonstrate its
economy, and to prove that factory for
cheese or butter making will be good
Investment from the start, in any good
dairy region, if it be well managed.
According to a German authority there
are 1856 varieties of cheese, more or less
distinct in their character, made in Eu-
rope, while we are quite certain there is
but one kind made in this country, though
the shape is sometimes varied. Is there
not vast room for Improvement here in
this respect?
A writer to ar English journal said
have been used to the Ayrshire COW in
her native country, and now have a herd
in the south; have seen her tried side
by side with the Shorthorns and some
other breeds, and | have no hesitation
whatever in saying that, taking the cost
Of production into account, the Ayrshire
is the best all-round dairy COW IN the
British Islands.
The creameries in Sullivan, Wis, put
their butter into earthern jars or crooks
of from five to twenty pounds each, and
send these to regular customers in Mil
waukee, who use the butter and return
the jars to be re-filled. In this way the
denizens of the city get firm, fresh but
ter for their tables all the time, and the
dairymen get good prices. Both parties
profit by the transaction.
A chemical analysis Of Chicago cheese,
known as "Chicago fats" develops the
fact that it is more than half water, and
that it contains but very little fat, though
considerable albuminous matter. The
fact that the cheese can be sold at two
cents per pound, indicates that no milk
enters into the manufacture. 1t is the
opinion of Prof. Webbert, of the Ohio
State University, that the article is made
from the by-products in the manufacture
of glucose.

American Competition has Ruined Eng
ish Dairying.

The London Times thus makes public
facts which have long been quietly
known: "a great blow has fallen upon
English agricultural industry in the des-
truction OF the profit hitherto realized
from the manufacture of high quality
cheese. American competition has at last
ruined the prospects Of the skilled and
ndefatigable dairy farmers of Cheshire,
prices having fallen from Is to 20 shillings
per hundred weight bringing down the
market TO figures at which it would not
be remuneratye to continue business
What effect this may have upon husban-
dry and the great cheese making centres
in England cannot be calculated, but a
great reduction in the value Of dairy
farms may be expected. 1t cannot be
said that superior quality in products Is
remedy for Improbable cheese making,
lor the overwhelming fall has occurred in
the price Of the very best Cheshire.
Farmers are disnayed at the outlook, for
the very branch of husbandry which has
been regarded as the manstay of British
agriculture, If dairyng goes, every re-
source Of onr agricultural classes must
collapse" With such admittedtgets tlom

Last week the American steamships reached
Havana with goods consigned by New York
merchants in advance of the mails sent to Key
West and thence by an old tow-boat, four or
i've days by reason of the breaking down of the
latter. The mails contained the invoices for the

to be slowed away to await the arrival of the

In Maine there is very decided divis-
ion in the Democratic ranks between the
old line Democrats and the soldiers of
fortune who have been leaving the Re-
publican party because it would not give
them office. The latter have acquired
prominence in the party management,
but the old liners distrust them. "They
are bad lot," said a life long Democrat
to Journal man last week Nthey are
after the spols and nothing else. They
are now making us as much trouble as
they ever made you. They have no fol
lowing, however, and another year we
shall depose them from places in the
party management They would disgrace
any party. just now they appear to
control the organization in Maine, but we
shall get rid of them just as the Republi-
cans did. They came to US through the

evening, when number of Montana

soaked in Montana forty-rod, boarded
the car and began fusilade with
their six shooters, much to the dis
comfort of Mr.. Green and his assist
ants. Report says that the floor of
the car was perforated and the occu-
pants badly scared. After the COW
boys enjoyed their so-called amuse-

parted, leaving the superintendent to
