A Pennsylvania CREAMERY.
Having travelled among the numerous
creameries of Eastern Pennsylvania, and
stayed at ore conducted successfully upon
the cooperative plan, I may be able to
offer something in reply, as you ask on
page 668 (Sept. 6, Of iuterset to G. T. =.
of Culpeper, Co., Va.
My observations have led to the con.
clusion that co operative creameries are
rarely successful! clieIes are liable to
form and contentious 10 prevail, neither
of which is probable when the voice Of
one able owner has the final word in
everything. The place where I have gu
joyed the opportunities of instruction. is
one of the rare exceptions, due essentially
to a competent president, few sensible
men in the board of directors, and an able
superintendent, assisted BY respectable
help.

Over Niagara Fails,

NIAGARA FALLS, September 7.-steve
Brodie accomplished The perilous feat
to-day of going over Niagara Falls in
rubber suit. Brodie and his party nr.
rived at. Clifton last night. They were
Ernest Eerold, John Ledger, John Nc.
Carthy and VIM E, Harding and several
newspaper correspondents. They put
up at the Waverly Hotel, and registered
under fictitious names in order to avoid
suspicion. Drodis'a suit ,waa placed 600
feet above the Canadian Falls last night,
ready For use. Inflated rubber tubes,
ropes, etc., were also placed near the
Maid of the Mist landing.
Brodie left the hotel with his party at
4 a. m. John Mccarthy and Ernest
Jerold and Brodie went to q point 200
feet over the falls. He then stripped
and had his body padded with cotton
batting; then put on the rubber suit
hich vas inflated Gity-two inches around
the waist and seventy. five inches round
the chest. His head gear YES also
inflated, while tWo steel bands protected
his body.
At $50, Brodie, with his paddle, ea
tered the water. He caught the current,
waved his paddle to Jerold and McCar-
thy, and o few seconds later was shot
over the centre of Horseshoe Falls-and
luckily he vas shot lightning rapidity
over the outside of one of the falling
volumes of water, and was quickly lost
in the mist and foam. He was carried
from view for nearly two minutes, when
black speck covered with thick white
coating was seen bobbing and jumping
to and fro in the cauldron of rushing,
gurgling waters.
In short time Brodie was caught in
the rushing waters and carried at brisk
pace toward the American shore, and
then all of sudden be was hurried
toward the Canadian shore, where john
Ledger had ropes ready to drag him from
the water. -a
Ledger was stripped, and swan out
200 feet, with rope fastened to his
waist, while W. E. Harding held the
other end on shore. Ledger, after sew
eral attempts, reached Brodie, fastened
the rope to the iron bands round his
waist and then swan ashore and assisted
in pulling the daring swimmer ashore.
iOn Brodie being lifted on the rocky
shore, he was quickly stripped. Brandy
was poured in small quantities on his
temples, while he was rubbed and
chafed; but he was insensible, and blood
oozed from his mouth, nose and ears,
probably from shock or conclusion. For
twenty minutes Brodie lay, until ammonia
was applied to his nostrils and he began
to shiver and gesticulate with his hands.
he gradually recovered consciousness,
and it vas then found that his injuries
were not serious. He expects to be able
to 20 to New York tomorrow.
