The Hay Press Contest.
The following is copy of the in
vitation which has been sent out to
the hay press manufacturers for the
contest on June 18th and 18th:
A. & M. COLLEGE, Miss, May IA, 'S9.
DEAR SIR:-We want to purchase
hay press for the use of the Exper-
iment Station and Agricultural Col
Llege.
Two or three manufacturers, real
izing the advertising value OF placing
press here, have offered very lib
eral terms, but, as the machine in
wanted for saving the hay crop Of
the Station, and as an illustration of
the best of its kind for the students
in the College, we do not care so
much for price as for quality. We
want the press which, with nearly
the same amount of labor, will -,
able us to put ton of hay into the
smallest space. Under these circum-
stances, we have decided to make the
following offer, open only to manu-
facturers in Mississippi, viz: II
two or more manufacturers will send
presses here for public contest on
June 18th and 10Th, the Station will
furnish such labor as may be need
ed, and at the close of the contest
will purchase, at the regular adver-
tised price, the press which does
the most satisfactory work.
The conditions of the contest will
be as follows:
|. Each press must make not less
than ten bales in one hour, but be-
fore time is called for any press to
begin work, the exhibitor will be al
lowed to use as much time and to
make as many bales as he may de-
sire in order to get his press in good
running order.
2. All competing presses will be
furnished with the same quality of
hay.
3. Teams, belonging to the Ex-
pertinent Station and to the College
will be at the service of exhibitors,
free of charge; but should any ex-
hibitor desire to do so, he will be
to employ other teams.
A. Presses will be graded on
scale of 100 points, divided as fol-
lows:
Weight per cubic foot of bale ........ 35 points
Shape of bale for packing in ear 33
feet long and feet wide. de............15 -
Number of men necessary ............... 10 9
Horse power required. ..............1 10 8
Strain of team .................... 10 -
Appearance of finished bale. ............. !"

LET ,ENI FIGHT.
Rev. HI. NJ. Simmons on Base Ball
and Pugilism.

Rev. H. NJ. Simmons, at the First
Unitarian church, in his sermon made
the following alluSion to base ball and
prize fights yesterday: 1.-The pop
ular interest in athletic sports seems in
creasing. A few years ago the term
American association meant the 'aSSO-
citation for the advancement of SCIENCE
To-day the papers use the heading far
more frequently. but the reader searches
in vain for the science, and instead of
the discoveries of chemists and philoso
pliers finds the deeds of more famous
men at the first base or shOrt-stop; and
when the original American aSsOcia-
tom recently met it did not begin to
get so much notice as base ball, or
even prize fights. Not that we
would criticiSe. So far as the
change indicates an increased esteem
and care for strong and healthy bodies,
it is good; although we should remen-
Der that in physical strength the best
man does not equal a mule, and the
national honOrS ought not all to be given
to braWny arms, but partly to brain.
Nor would we stop the amuSementS of
pugilists, but give them full freedom to
fight each other from off the face of the
earth. Indeed. their fighting for money
is not so foolish as for others to pay out
money TO see it, and not so bad as for
others to try to get each others money
by betting about it. By all means let
the fighting go on. and as fiercely and
fatally as possible. But let it be done
in private, so as to protect from its de-
grading influence our growing children,
as well as the gr0Wn-up children who
are so little advanced as to be attracted

Rev. Charles F. Thwing preached yes

Some men seem to be Christian like
the chameleon, in spots and at times.
They are Christian in their intellect,
but they are beasts in their appetites.
They are Christian in their appetites,
but in their desires they are selfish, mar
row, mean. They are Christian in
their desires. but in their affections
they are corrupt, base, deceptive. They
are Christian in their affections, but in
their conduct they are indiscreet, in
consistent, blameworthy. They are
Christian in their conduct at home, but
in the store and Office they are cross,
severe, tricky. They are Christian in
the paTlor at home, but in the kitchen
and chamber enViouS, jealous, scolding.
They are Christian in their family, they
are not Christian out of their family.
They are Christian in heart and brain,
but not Christian in purse. Indeed,
they are Christian only i'll spots and at
times.

The week just past has been one full
of attractive features at the Exposition,
and this week will be no less interest
ing. To-day is a musical day. Stempf's
chorus and the rendition of ;. Congress
of Nations will probably draw as large
an audience as there has attended the
Exposition this season. Then there is
a new feature which becomes part of
the Exposition this morning. Capt.
Boyton and his seals give three per-
fOrmanceS in the little lake in the mid
die of the Exposition building. The
seals have been in the building resting
for three days, and the captain arrived
yesterday. The clever captain and his
Intelligent pets will be very popular
with many of the Exposition guests. =,
Tuesday will be Orphans day, and
Minneapolis and st. Paul. Reagan
Bros. will furnish spread for them,
and pains will be taken to make the day
pleasant for the little unfOrtunates.
They themselves will be worth seeing.
Wednesday evening the class of
young ladies of the school of physical
culture will give performance on the
third floor stage. There are fifty good
looking girls in this class, and it is ru-
mored they will give their gymnustic
exercises in peculiarly attractive uni
form, ZOuave blouse and loose knicker-
bOckers. They have been drilling in
the building, but the character of their
presentation is shrouded IN mystery.
Thursday is q day for the babies, and
there Will be blooming collection of

tries of twins and of little ones who are

Exposition will go to the babies.
Friday evening Prof. RaymOnd'S
chorus of 1000 girl voices will give
their second concert. This is sure of a
large audience and will be one of the
best days of the week. Saturday will
be Children's day again.
Monday always has musical attrac-
ton in the evening. Tonight it will be
dOubly attractive. Stempf'S chorus.
which has become so popular, will take
part in the musical programme. This
alone would insure large attendance.
In addition the long promised Congress
of Nations will be presented.

MAKING FINE BUTTER.
Some of the Conditions as Sci

Some of the Conditions as Set
Forth by T. ID. Curtis.
Most of the butter made in the coun-
try is palatable when fresh from the
churn, its bad qualities appearing with
age and from exposure. Its condition
determines the keeping quality of but
ter, and its subsequent handling has its
effect to retard or hasten its decompo-
sition. Were ali butter consumed from
day to day as it is made, we should
probably hear but little complaint about
Door butter; but some of the poor but
ter that finds its way into market
is due to careless making and handling
and the use of poor salt by the maker.
who is governed by the idea that his
butter is made for immediate cOnSump-
ton" and lit makes no difference" l
have been met with this argument, in
favor of using cheap salt. With this
idea in his head, the maker is careless
about working and packing his butter,
especially as he knows that every pound
of Gaseous matter and water he leaves
in it counts and sells for so much weight
of butter The butter itself is fraud
from first to last. If it is creamery"
butter it goes at creamery prices. 1t is
sham, so far as making is concerned
throughout. The biggest price is de-
manded for it, and the least pains and
the cheapest salt are used in making it,
because it is for Immediate consump-
tion." 1t is like making and selling
shoddy clothing for the genuine wool.
Thread and cloth are both rotten, but it
is made for immediate wear" and ut

cause of this carelessness and in
difference, coupled with their sell
fishness to save by using cheap
salt and doing cheap work. l urged
that they demanded and obtained
the price of first-class article, and that
honesty and honor demanded that they
should make their butter such, and just
as well as if it were expected to be kept
six months or year. The reply was
some expression of Impotence at such
nonsense, and a manifest desire to
change the topic of conversation to
something that was more agreeable. 1t

touched and their profits curtailed that

The Real Shetland Pony.

The real Shetland pony is thirty, or at

monty seen in this country are from
Ireland, being bred with the horses
there, and are larger than the real
Shetland, for the genuine pony is diff
cult to rear. the country of which he
is a native is bare, and the farmer is
sharp, and when the little creatures
survive the effect of having but little to
eat, the farmer values him so highly he
only sells him at high price. 1t costs
