dairy butter. Now, why is this SOP Simply
because it is uniform in quality and favor.
A dealer retailing from thirty to seventy
five sixty-pound tubs per week, knowing
that he can rely on the quality and color
being the same week in and week out, is
willing to pay an extra price over either
western or eastern dairy butter that is
ring-streaked, grizzled and gray My obser-
walton has been that 1t Is impossible to find,
even among the very best dairy lots, fifty, or
even ten tubs of it, that is uniform in color
or texture. Oftentmes a single tub of sixty
pounds will be found with two or three
different shades in it. Consumers don't
like their butter that way, and will always
pay from five to fifteen cents per pound
more for uniformly colored article, even If
the flavor is no better, for looks has much
to do in pleasing the palate The only
remedy that know OF for this is to send
the milk to a creamery and have the butter
made up in quantities, the same as we do
here in the West. If not, why not? Agreat
factor in high prices is winter dairying.
Milk as many or more cows in winter as in
summer, when you and your hired man
have little or nothing else to do, and you
will find, though the product may be less,
the net gain, owing to higher prices, will be
nearly or quite double that of your summer
make. When cows are properly fed and
housed in warm barns, the butter will be
found to be nearly or quite as fine favored
as in summer. Ink.

In addition to the district rates, as given
above, 1t must be borne in mind that state
tax of nine per cent is also paid-a tax that
Is called the " state school tax" because the
state requires each town to raise at least
nine per cent of its grand list for the support
OF schools. This forms the "public money"
or the bulk OF such money, which is an
nually distributed to the districts in accord
ance with the requirements of law. Here
alter this tax will be twelve per cent, and
the number OF weeks of school, to obtain
the benefit of the public money, twenty
four instead OF twenty weeks-a step towards
the adoption of the town system. Either
the doctrine OF equal taxation and equal
privileges is "fallacy and lie," or this
town, like many others, is multiplying, for the
support OF schools, for the support of the
institution which is the cornerstone of a
free government, principles and practices
which prevail and are adhered to in other
aifairs-the road, listing, support of poor,
etc.-of the town. Is there any reason why
one section of the town should pay thirteen
times as large tax on its grand list for the
support of schools as another section, when
both sections pay the same highway tax
and the same town tax? How il that for
equality OF taxation and privileges " &?
The average of the above taxes is about
twenty-one per cent. To this add the state
school tax and the average is raised to thirty
per cent-the tax which has actually been
paid 1t is believed that tax OF twenty
five per cent would support the schools of
the town under the town system. This
would he the entire taxation, since there is
no state tax under that system. Adding the
twelve per cent state tax which Is to be paid
henceforth to the district taxes, as shown
above, and 1t will be found that under the
present system ten out of the seventeen dis
tricts will pay larger tax than under the
town system, i've the same or about the
same, and two only smaller tax. SO that,
considering the matter solely with reference
to the matter of taxation, there would be no
actual increase in fifteen districts, and in
ten districts there would be "A decrease.
These are considerations entirely apart
from the higher and really conclusive ones
OF quality, efficiency of schools, etc. This
school question must be met sometime, and
it is best to become familiar with and think
over some OF its important phases. The
above is oEe-and the lowest. We believe
the majority Of the voters of the town will
take public-spirited, an enlightened, I'M
selfish and patriotic view of the question
when they are fully familiar with Il in all
its bearings.
