CoIoring Butter.

The practice of coloring butter is to
be condemned for two reasons: 1t is
fraudulent and dishonest and it is IL
legal. 1t misrepresents the character
of the butter, and the majority of
consumers are deceived by it. 1t is
unnecessary, and is practiced solely
to please the eye and to meetthe pop
ular delusion that high-colored but
ter is superior in quality to the pale
colored. An excellent color may be
procured by adequate and judicious
feeding and the keeping of cows
whose butter has the desirable tint.
The oleomargarine law provides that
any mixture of oil with butter renders
itliable to the tax. As penal statutes
are to be strictly construed, the quaint
ity of the oil mixed is not an element
to be considered, otherwise where
could the line be drawn? So that
when a colored oil is mixed with the
cream to tint the butter it is, in fact
and in truth, an adulteration, which
renders the maker of the mixture liza
BILE to the onerous tax on oleomarga-
rine, and puts him in dangerous po-
sition Of liability to prosecution. If
the potash coloring solutionsa are used
instead of the oil, one is on the other
horn of the dilemma, which is equally
sharp, and prosecution for adultera-
ting food would impend.-Nep York

Big Birds In tho Transvaal.

Most of the larger birds that l have
seen in the Transvaal are evidently OF
great bodily powers, which their am
pie wings sufficiently indicate. These
are half vulturine in form as well as
habit. My companion and l wounded
bird of this description one day with
the gun with which we have full lib
erty here. l don't know its name,
but here is a description: Body and
neck pure white, wings black, flat bill
n inches long, legs q inches and 81
feet from tip to tip of the wings. We
brought him home and had him go
ing about on the green for days. One
day we discovered him boiling a
snake about two feet long (by descrip-
ton the African cerastes, a rather
evilly disposed species, one of the CO
bras), and three days afterward we
found him dead.
Next in size to this bird is the, Kafir
crane, which is dark blue in plumage.
This is much of the build of the form
er bird, with this exception-its bill is
more OF a beak, short and strong.
Next comes the vulture, truly of the
fowl feeding race, for he is not long
in picking the bones Of any oxen that
die. 1t used to be fine of 600 for
shooting this bird in the Free States,
they were considered so valuable in
removing putrescent animal remains,
and l believe their services are essen
tial yet. We have half dozen differ
ent kind of hawks, some resembling
our English birds OF prey in size and
habits, but of much finer plumage.

Sheep as Scavengers.

Now as sheep are coming to the front
once more, it is possible that some at
present very unproductive and worth
less slashings will be brought to prof
liable condition. No other animal is
so at war with natures wildness as
the sheep. Scarcely any noxious
thing except thistles will gain foot
hold in sheep pasture; and there is no
way of subdu:ng a clearing so thor
oughly as to set sheep a-feeding there.
know of clearing of ten acres that
has been nothing but bill Of expense
for eight years, which now (barring
stumps) might have been clean blue
grass pasture if it had been made a
run for small flock of sheep. The
owner has had a spell ofcutting brush
and weeds about once in two years,
and now the last end of the field is
worse than the first. One Of the beau
ty-spots is half acre patch Of teasles.
AS a run for cattle the field has GER
tainly not been worth twenty-five
cents an acre, and many of the stumps
are no nearer decay than eight years
ago, the roots having been kept alive
by growing sprouts.

Developing Colts.

From that colt you are to get the
future horse. If you intend to build
a house you must get a foundation first.
We saw men the other day putting
great heavy timbers under the house
of friend of ours. We asked him
what he intended to do, and he said
that he found that the foundation was
good for nothing, and that he must
put new one in. That is precisely
the way some men attempt to build
a horse. They neglect the foundation.
They neglect TO keep the bones and
muscles growing, and we can not put
a new foundation under horse as a
man can under his house.
If the foundation of the horse is
faulty, it will never be repaired. We
have known colts that never get any
thing in the shape of grain but corn,
and corn is no more fit for a colt as a
steady diet than candy is for child.
The colt and all younganimals should
have sweet, tender hay and such grain
as oats in winter. This sort of feed
ing will develop the system. The
animal should not be kept in i'll ven
tilated stables, nor compelledto stand
in manure, and the old and oft-repeat-
ed advice to begin breaking the
colt early is always in order.

A Gallant Sailor.

Vice Admiral Jaureguiberry, who
died recently, was reputed to be The
most courteous naval officer in Euro
pean waters. While in command of
the Mediterranean squadron he be-
came famous for his courtly treat
ment of women. Whenever his flag
ship. the Richelieu. came to anchor
off a large town on the southern
French or east Italian coast, half the
titled women in the neighborheod
usually went on board to let the vice
admiral say nice things TO them, and
show them what flagship was Like.
Some time ago, while the Richelieu
was at anchor near Nice, the vice adj
miral's popularity among Italian wo-
men reached it's climax. Almost daily
two or three parties of social bellies
visited the flagship. From 3 o'clock
until 6 every pleasant afternoon the
vice admiral was busy serving coffee,
kissing hands, and showing off his
ship to the 400 of Nice.
After this sort of thing had been in
progress several weeks the minister OF
the navy turned up in Nice for his
summer vacation. He disapproved Of
the vice admiral's almost exclusive
devotion to the pretty women OF the
city. He told the vice admiral so sew
eral times in diplomatic language, but
the vice admiral was too polite to pass
along to his fair admirers the minis
ter's hints that they were playing
ducks and brakes with the discipline
of the Mediterranean squadron. The
afternoon receptions on the Richelieu
continued with undated popularity.
The minister of the navy became
very impatient. Eventually he de-
termined to cure the women of their
fondness for visiting the vice admiral,
as he could not cure him of his fond
ness for receiving them.
One afternoon while an Italian
countess and her two friends were
drinking coffee on the Richelieu, the
vice admiral was unexpectedly order
ed by marine signals, made from the
shore at the minister's instance, to
weigh anchor at once and without
any previous communication with the
city to proceed to Marseilles. The
countess and her friends were in dis
pair. They begged to be sent ashore.
With all his gallantry, however, the
admiral was o thoroughbred sailor.
He did not dare disobey his explicit
orders. The Richelieu sailed almost
Immediately for Marseilles with the
coffee party intact. Two days later
the three Italian women returned to
Nice by rail from the French seaport.
Every one was gossiping about their
temporary elopement with the vice
admiral. The notoriety of their ad-
venture accomplished the minister's
purpose. Although the vice admiral
remained the most courteous and
courtly of naval officers up to the day
of his death, comparatively few wo-
men who had heard Of the predica-
ment of the countess and her two
friends dared to visit his flagship to
learn how nice he was.-New York

Jean Won and Louis Won Beethoven

Beethoven, although it must be con-
ceded that he had every right to be
vain, conceited and what not, never
took the trouble to hide his feelings,
and when his ire was aroused-and
that is with men of genius more easily
done than to allay it-he expressed
himself very clearly indeed. Thus
you may see at Heiligenstadt, near
Vienna, where they are now forming
q sort of Beethoven museum like the
Mozarteum at Salzburg, a sketch of a
chateau in Neither where, a few
years before his death Beetho-
ven used to compose. 1t be-
longed to Beethoven's brother, a
chemist, who had made some money
and was rather fond of displaying his
wealth. This brother called upon
Beethoven and displayed card upon
which he had engraved his name ::
Jean Won Beethoven, landed propri-
etor." This innocent vanity so en-
ragged Beethoven that he returned the
call upon his brother when he knew
he would not be at home and left his
card: Louis Won Beethoven, brain
proprietor. Temple Bar.

Rye as a Fertilizer.

Prof. Budd, of Iowa is reported to
have said at one of the recent conven-
tions. Even turning under dry rye
straw or any thing to make vegeta-
bles mold in the soil is of more value
than commercial fertilizers An Ohio
farmer made the statement that lone
of the best and cheapest fertilizers is
is rye, plowed under as soon as the
heads appear" He had used it for a
number of years with the best results.
Mr.. haywood, of New York, said he
had repeatedly brought up poor pieces
of ground by. sowing rye, and about
June 1, or just before the heads APP
peared, turning it under then sowing
corn and turning that under The
next year he could grow almost any
thing on that land.
