A report comes from Germany that that
government Is likely to invite France and
England to cooperate In a movement to
suppress the liquor traffic on the westcoast
Of Africa. This news will be heard with
concern by some rum manufacturers in
our own country. 1t may not be generally
known, says the New York sun, that the
great Centre of Culture contributes about
all the liquor from our land which is
poured down the throats OF native Afri-
cans. II Is said that one firm within i've
miles OF the Massachusetts, State House
has a contract to supply 5000 gallons Of
rum day for seven year, for the African
trade. This thriving business Is doubtless
n source of great satisfaction to the max
ers Of trade rum. but We see another aspect
Of the case In such piteous appeals As that
Of Chief khrams, who. In his recent RE-
quest for protection against the liql
sellers. said: ~ dread the white mans

The Department Of State was without
official news Of the wrecks until copy Of
Admiral Kinberiy's dispatch was sent
over from the Navy Department at the
request Of Mr.. Walker Blaine.
Naval Constructor Iiichborn, who i
acting as chief OF the Construction Bureau
during the Illness Of Commodore Wilson,
said: 1.-The Trenton, which was Admiral
KimberIy's flagship. was the best wooden
vessel In the American nsvy-the best
ship Of the old navy. The Vandalia was
another fine vessel, and had been thorough
ly refitted In the Mare Island Navy Yard
at considerable expense just before she
sailed"
The gale on the day before the one
which caused the wreck was violent one,
bat the Nipsie rode IL safely. For some
days the weather had been threatening,
and on that day the storm burst 10 all it.

in such a storm, but a boat from the Nip

succeeded in landing all of her crew in

The Nipsic also sent a line to the
English schooner Lily, which was drag

otherwise would have done.

During the contiI ued discussion on the
tariff the past few years much has
been said about the production OF tin
plate Ia the United States. The Free
Traders have commended that the extern

not be manufactured 10 this country In
sufficient quantity to supply the demand,
and that therefore the high duty on the
imported tin is heavy and useless bur

sight the Protectionists have been looking
forward TO the time when the needed
production could be made In the
United States under the stimu-
lus Of our tariff system. The following
facts. which We gather from the New

wood were dropped on their backs which
they acknowledged by squirting fountains of
water In the sir. Lines of phosphorescent
light. sometimes ss far rs the eye could reach
were visible from the ships deck as the
whales one after another raced through the
water. All that night the mi ghty fish played
around the vessel without accident. At $50
O'Clock on the morning of the 25th the Cor
don was shaken from stem to stern. The
vessel had struck = monster whale. The
vster was discolored ard bloody. showing
that the Gordon bad struckthe fish terrible
blow. The whales disappeared from about
the vessel shortly after the collision. Cap

whales in the school.

Creamery Methods in Private Diaries.

.pondent of the Prairie Farmer
recommends the adoption of the methods in
use in handling cream at the best butter
factories, BY those private dairymen who are
not located where they can send their cream
to a creamery. In the course of lengthy
article upon this subject the writer gives
some most excellent suggestions, from
which we make an extract below -
Creameries are fast springir up, but they
DO not yet touch every neighbour BOD, and to
those who are still Obliged to make up their
own butter at home, would say, your only
salvation in the matter is to follow near
ly as possible, creamery principles and
creamery methods. Amateur creamery
ought to stand well up in fancy
quotations. A cabinet refrigerator is what
you want, one of tn ,se zine lined water-chests,
with cooler attachment for deep setting.
Don't try to make fine butter from cream
raised on pans in hot pantry. Cream should
be sweet, or nearly so, when lifted from the
milk, and this can be attained under the
cooler system with pounded ice in the re-
frigeratJr. Let the cream mature after be-
ing SKINNED, not before. 1t should stand
about twenty four hours after separation
ly sour or ripe before churning.
Watch the tendency to acidty carefully
and govern it by temperature. DO not
churn an ounce of cream until you have
thermometer to test the temperature This
may seem unimpprtant, but it is. neverthe-
less, an essential requisite. The cream
should be at a temperature of Go degrees
Fahrenheit when the ehurn dash begins to
move. Ii it is above that, stir in some fine ly
pounded ice; if below, don't slop in hot
water, bit give it warmer air for few
moments.
As soon as the butter grains which is
caused by the sepai alton of the minute oil
glObules from the waste milk, and their at
tachment together, draw Oh the butter
milk, and, as you turn your dash slowly,
pour cold water into the churn and wash
out all of the surplus fluid instead of after
ward, harshly working it out with a ladle.
Remember the butter must be in the grain
aud before it is all amalgamated together,
when YOU wash it; otherwise it cannot be
accomplished thoroughly, BY working
butter much with ladlc, the oil giobuies
are rupiured, which gives it a slightly ran
cid tas-e aud inferior keeping quallties. This
is just what ails half of the dairy product.
Use the finest and purest dairy sal. obtain
able, and work il in s,ry carefully, bearing
in mind constantly the frailty of the struc-
ture You are manipulating. Properly packed
for the market, butter made as described
ought to tickle the palate OF an epicure.
You see that the main essentials are
evenly -matured cream, right temperature at
churning- time, washing bnttermlk from til,
grain. instead of crushing it out with wood
en- instrument, and sailing carefully with a
superior condiment.

Onion Culture.

A light mellow loan is the best for onions
The soil should be perfectly prepared and
the onion requires large quantity of man
ure. Sow the seed as early as the round i
in condition Sow in drills half an inch
deep, fourteen inches apart and use four
pounds of seed TO the acre. Cultivate well
Some apply dressing of wood ashes after
the second wedding. When the leaves are
decayed the onions are ripe, which will BE-
in August or September. Then pull and let
them dry in the sun for few days. Yes,
full sized onions can be grown from seed the
first year. For sets prepare the ground well
and SOW the seed very thickiy in broad drill,
at the rate of thirty pounds to the acre

Ex-senator Jonathan Chace re 'ents the
charge that the United States Senate is "A
millionaire club"
Fully one half" says he, ARE men of
small or no means. A large proportion of
the rest are men Of moderate fortune. 4 few
are rich, and there are three or four great
estates. The wealth is nearly evenly divided
between the two sides of the chamber. In
the House the only great fortune in the Fifth
eth Congress was on the democratic side.
The argument that email means or paucity of
salary laws members open to temptation is
not justified by the facts. | repudiate that.
Many years of careful observation lead me
to the conclusion that few members are, or
could be ~ith safety, approached by corrupt
offers. They are. as body, not only among
the ablest, but the best, men in the nation,
and have been so Congress after Congress.
The csuse rests upon other and better grounds.
