Packing Butter for Transportation.

| noticed an article in a Canadian
paper stating that Canadian merchant
had shipped consignment of butter to
China via the Canada Pacific railroad.
The article went on to say that this
was the first lot of butter that had been
shipped to China, and that the venture
had proved financial success, but that
the mode or manner of packing the
butter was secret Now what is to
hinder some of our American butter
dealers from trying the same thing?
There is market in that country, APP
parently, that would take all our sur
plus butter. The United States sends
hundreds of thousands of hard dollars
yearly to China to pay for the tea we
buy from them. Why not exchange
butter for their tea? The United
States sends large quantities of butter
to England, where we come in direct
competition with the older countries of
France, Belgium, Germany, Holland
Norway and Sweden, and we generally
come off second best in that market.
But in China, once get the market es-
tablished, we would have little compe-
tition. AS to the secret manner of
packing the butter to ship to China or
any other foreign market, here it is:
Take new pork barrels, fill them with
clean water, let them stand four or five
days, and change the water once dur
ing the time. This serves two pur-
poses-the water takes away the
wood smell and also soaks into the barrel
and prevents the danger of the brine
soaking into the wood and leaving some
portion of the butter bare, which
would cause it to become strong and
rancid. Make a brine by boiling that
will float an egg; let it stand to COO
and settle before using. Make the
butter into rolls that will fit into the
barrels so as not to leave too much va
cant space. Wrap the rolls with
cheese-cloth to keep them from mass
ing together Put in portion of the
brine before commencing to pack into
the barrel Leave two inches of space
at the top of the barrel for brine. BIZ
sure the butter is kept covered all thu
time with the brine, for here is where
the secret lies-in not allowing the al
to come in contact with the butte
after packing. Butter requires to b,
sailed in the usual way, one ounce t
the pound, before packing, for tn,
reason that brine will not penetrat,
butter when pressed in a solid mass
Butter packed in this way will keel
fresh and sweet for months. Last sea
son put down several barrels in thi
way. The butter was in the brin
from the middle of June until Decem
Der. When unpacked for sale it wa
just as fresh and tasted as well as whel
it went into the brine.-Cor. Farmers

who Broke the Eggs 2

oh, jack l think it's the medneS thing
What do you think happened today
Some one has broken my beautiful eggs
And stolen my dear little hen away
Won't you come down from the hay-loft Jack?
What you laughing about up there2
II any ever had stolen your hen
wouldn't act as IL fdidn't care
wish kneic who had done such thing
As to break my eggs Did you say yoa knew?
Then Jack you're just the awfulest boy
If you don't tell me- All, who, Jack, who7
You say you them breaking my eggs?
To think you would stay there and see them do IT.
Well, one things certain, III tell papa,
And the guilty people shall surely rue it!
" am going to fix such nice new nest,
And Greyling will soon lay some more eggs in it,
Won't you come down, just moment, please,
And show me a little how to begin t?"
Hark! who's that saying a" cluck cluckcluck?"
As sober old Greyllng comes out to sight?
And what does our Susie " so speedily see
That is making her small hands clap in delight?
10! there the guilty people at last
who broke the eggs and rihed the nest
Only dozen little wee chicks,
yellow and white on wings and On breast.
Break the eggs why shouldn't they pray,
When their bills and bodies grew strong and stout
So Susie thinks, as she feeds each pet,
I'm so glad that the thieves came out

Form and Feature,

otherwise possess. Bearing this fact
in mind, use SOZODONT, which will
prevent your teeth from losing their
whiteness, and will render them spot
less if speckled and discolored. The

Tint oantanl.erous Old Women

Described IN the nursery ballad, who
''ived upon nothing but yictuals and

was undoubtedly troubled with chronic in
digestion. Her yictvals like those of many
other elderly persons whose digestive pow
ers haYe become impaired, didn't agree
with her. This was before the era of Hos
letters Stomach Bltters, or some one of her
numerous friends and relatives would un-
doubtedly have persuaded her to try the
great specific for dyspepsia, constipation
and billiousness. This would have been a
measure of self protection on their part, for
she soon would have been cured and ceased
to disturb them with her clamor. The most
obstinate cases of indigestion, with its at

remedy. Chills and fever aud bilious re-

IDEAS FOR DRESS.

Paris has had touch of Anglophobia
in the way Of dress.
French gray is as popular a color as
ever for spring dresses.
Silver buttons are used on yachting
gowns instead of gilt ones.
Every girl should dress as well as her
time and purse will allow.
The Tuxedo suit for ladies consists of
blouse waist, skirt and sash.
Ladies are beginning to wonder how
they could ever have liked the directoire
gown.
There is but little difference in outward
appearance between good sateen and an
India silk.
Tarpaulin hats, either black or white,
in sailor shape, are affected by feminine
yachtsmen.
1t is a part of French economy that a
woman shall not wear her street costume
in the house.
Surah silk dust cloaks are seen quite
frequently on women bent upon shop
ping expeditions.
Riding habits are still dark in color,
but ladies will soon make change to
light gray and brown.
The broad lace and muslin frills which
have lately come into fashion often give
fresh air to very faded costume.
A tea gown of latest pattern is in old
rose India silk with the Watteau fullness
in the back laid in accordion plaits.
A black costume is extremely chic if
worn with yellow turban Of fancy
straw trimmed with black ribbons and
feathers.
A year ago few ladies had the courage
towear dress without a hustle. By mid
summer there will not be such an article
