described In The following terms:

There can be- little doubt that bacteria

Some important articles have recent
" appeared in German and Danish
papers upon the ilavoring OF butter.
In some of the Continental countries,
including Germany and Denmark. there
are Special institutions for the study OF
biological questions connected with the

IL appears to be held by some in
yestigutors that the iiavorin- whether

the flavor OF lurnips. Is caused by
bacteria. Professor St0rch found large

Cleaning out smnn streams.


All natural water courses run through
the lowest land; and yer IL is often true
that the banks OF streams are higher
than much Of the land lying ut little
distance from them. In the case Of
largo rivers care is taken to keep the
stream from overlooking the banks but
we know OF small creeks running
through valuable land where short
sighted farmers instead Cf irving TO
keep the water in the stream. direct ID
to their neighbors' land. We ito not
think their intention is to iniure their
neighbors. They verify think they are
driving their own land. And in special
Instances such is the case. We k0ow
two large farmers, A and b. The
farms are adjacent, and both are on the
same crccE; but the creek runs for
quite distance through three or four
other farms before it reaches BIS farm.
Is cut ditch several hundred rods
long. in hopes of draining his land. a,
instead OF draining into the creek, runs
his water into BIS ditch and though
his house is not more than forty rods
from the creek he has constructed n
sewer from his house to Bs ditch and
turns an mis- sewage into il. A Claims
that the land falls as it recedes from
the creek. and that he has right TO
let the water run where it will. But
not into a ditch dug for my own use, -
says A. Aud he filled mp portion Of
his ditch and constructed another one
ON higher iaud into which he turns AS
sewage. aud uses it to irrigate his
meadow.
Is it "a fact then, that natural creek
does not run through the lowest land?
Certainly not; the trouble in the case
