From the New York Sun

from the New York Sun.
Thomas c. Delano, an authority
on cigars and tobacco, although not
directly interested in the trade f.
naneially, has just returned from
Key West and Cuba. He says that
the output from Key West of cigars
this year will be 9O,OOO,0OO. Some
years ago, he says, Connecticut seed
leaf was regarded by domestic man
ufaeturers, and even by some in Key
West, as standing next to Havana
leaf for cigar wrappers. Tt brought
a high price. But the Connecticut
tobacco farmers have killed their to-
#bacco goose in a queer way. They
used for some years certain kinds Of
manures which gave the tobacco a
luxurient growth, but developed
certain weaknesses in, the tobacco
which manufacturers now say mako
it improbable for a wrapper. For
that reason manufac turers import
their wrappers from Sumatra. The
Connecticut tobacco has deprecated
at least SO per cent through an I'M

BUTTER.

HOW TO MAKE IT IN HOT WEATHER.
1t is easy to make good butter if all
the conditions are right; if the weather
is good, the cream properly tempered
and ripened, the churn tempered to
suit the cream, the butter will come
when due and be in just the righ state
to work and wash. But when the
weather is hot and sultry, the cream a
little too warm, and trifle too acid,
much care must be used or the butter
will be injured. When there is no ice to
be had. and only well or spring water
for cooling purposes, the cream and
churn can be cooled with water suffi-
ciently to make good butter. Put the
cream pals in tank or tub with the
coolest water you can get and change
the water often enough to get the right
temperature. This temperature will
vary with varying conditions; the warmer
the weather the cooler the cream should
be, for it will warm up several degrees
in churning. If it is put in the churn
at 60 degrees and the butter comes on
time it will be found that it is little
too soft for working, and should be
cooled in the churn by the use of plenty
of water while washing it. Care should
also be used that the churn be stopped
Just as soon as the butter breaks, be-
cause it forms large grains very quickly
when it is trifle too warm. In working
greater care should be used, or the butter
will look oily, the grain being injured.
But if good judgment is used first-class
butter can be made in hot weather with
out the use of ice.

THE SENATE TARIFF BILL.

Very Little Show for the ideas Advocated
by Secretary Blaine.
WASHINGTON, June 90.-It is now the
purpose of the senate finance committee
to call up the tariff bill one week from
to-day. A number of slight alterations
will be made next week, but probably
nothing looking toward the reciprocity
propositions Of Mr.. Blaine. If any
further change be made in that respect
it will probably be In the direction of
increased duty on sugar, which would
be in accord with Mr.. Blaine's sugges-
ton that the present duty should be
retained unless decreased in the interests
of reciprOcitY.
