PROPORTION OF BUTTER.
The Varying Richness OF Milk an,
Cream.

The Varying Richness OF MILK and
Cream.
We often have the inquiry as to how
much butter can be made from a ccr-
tain quantity of milk or cream. 1t is
not possible to answer such questions,
for the proportion of butter to milk
and cream varies. Mr.. Morton. in his
encyclopedia of Agriculture" gives the
result of the practice of Mr.. Young,
an extensive dairy keeper in Scotland.
The yield of milk per cow is state. ut
six hundred and eighty gallons per
year: he obtains from sixteen quarts
OF milk twenty ounces of butter, or for
the year two hundred and twcn;y-seven
pounds per COW: from one gallon OF
cream three pounds of butter, or twelve
ounces per quart (wine measurc). Mr..
Young is described as high feeder;
linsced is his chief auxiliary food for
mich cows. Professor Johnson l.'Elc-
mcnts Of Agricultural Chemistry gives
the proportion of butter from milk ut
one and half ounces per quart. or
from sixteen quarts, twenty-four ounces.
being the produce of four cows
of different breeds-Alderney, Ee-
Won and Ayrshire-on pasture. and
in the height of the summer
season. On other cows of the
Ayrshire breed he gives the proportion
of butter from sixteen quarts as sixteen
| ounces, being one ounce per quart.
These cows were likewise on pasture.
The same author states the yield Of but
ter as one fourth of the yield Of cream,
or about ten ounces per quart. Mr..
| Rowlsndson (''Journal of the Royal
Agricultural Society," gives the produce
of 20, 10 quarts of milk churned by
hand as l, 100 pounds of butter, being at
the rate of fourteen ounces per sixteen
quarts of milk: and from -, 1856 quarts
of milk. 1.525 pounds of butter, being
from sixteen quarts nearly sixteen and
three -auartcrs ounces of butter. The
same author states that the yield OF
butter derived from five churnings OF
| fifteen quarts of cream each, is some
what less than eight ounces per quart
OF cream. DIR. Muspratt, in his work
on the Chemistry of Arts and Manu-
factures," gives the yield Of butter
from a COW per year in Ilolstcin and
Lunenburg at 100 pounds, in England at
100 pounds to $50 pounds. The average
of butter from COW in England Is
stated to be eight or nine ounces per
day, which, on yield of eight or nine
quarts, is one ounce per quart or for
sixteen quarts sixteen ounces.

WHAT IT is TO BE MANLY.

Oh, boys. you arc quick and strong Of limb;
You can run and wrestie and leap an swim,
And delight in your deeds OF daring;
But remember, dear boys, In whatever you
do,
It's brave to be tender and kind and true
It's manly TO be forbcarng.
The manly boy will defend the weak;
lie Will guard his lips, and be slow to speak
The word that will hurt another:
In aiding the helpless he'll do his part.
And he'll strive to deserve with royal heart
Tie tender kiss OF lis mother.
The tree, we say. IL known by Its fruit,
And actions speak when the lips are mute.
And tell with a truth answering
That you are the manly boys, indeed.
Who use your strength for anothers need
And delight In unselhsii serving.

CHAPTER NIv-coSTISUED.
The cloud Of doubt cleared from the
Majors brow as he clasped Franks
hand, and said heartily: MAY be was
wrong in Judging Fulton, and he will
perhaps be able to clear himself of any
charge more serious than a breach of
discipline. Any how, Frank. you shall
Fetch the lad back and give him chance

ter hands,
So, in accordance with this liberal
order. dozen men. heavily armed,
with Bcaant ut their head. stole ont of
camp that night under shadow of the
cedar-brakcs that lined the river.
To return to the object of all this So
licitude, Charlie Fulton's condition after
the battle of Murfreesboro was a strong
contrast to- the gentle treatment he had
received during his confinement at the
recruiting station. and he was now be-
ginning to learn that the lot of a pris-
oncr Of war was not a very enyiable
one. Torn from his associates, who, be-
ing gentlemen. had accorded him many
little kindnesses, he found himself in
the hands Of rough solaiery, who
seemed to take delight in covering with
indignitics their luckless prisoner. One
snatched the cap from his head with the
brutal declaration that it was too good
to cover Yank's brainless scalp: an
other rcquisitioned his boots and gave
him in return pair of soleless shoes n
tramp would scorn to wear: third APP
propriated his watch: and Il fourth took
fancy to ring he wore. Thus de-
spoiled he was hustled into the loft of
an unoccupied mill. where he was cheer
fully told to make himself at home till
morning, when he would be taken lin
the rnck Of captured lanlss to the pen. =
But sharp as the eyes of his captors
were they were net sufficiently on the
alert to prevent stolen interview with
the old colorcd man they had dcputed
to carry him few moldy rolls and {,
cup of villainous coffee they called his
dinner.
How anxiously the slow hours rolled
along. Would midnight never come?
Perhaps the ancient darby had fooled
him, or failed in his attempt to reach
the Union lines: or, worst thought OF
MI. was the probability that his folly
had been discovered and his comrades
might not think him worth the rescue
Below the men who had purloined .
small kcg Of whisky were getting quar-
rclsome over their cups. Now was the
time TO strike; if only Frank and hi.
gallant boys would come; but, though

BIG BRITISH SOLDIERS.
How Elephants Are Used as Warriors
the East Indian Army.

How Elephants Are Used rs Warriors In
the East insian Army.
The very biggest of the british sol
dicrs are i'm the East Indian army. They
are eight or ten feet tall. They weigh
five or six tons apiece. These giant sol
diers are not men, however. They go
on four feet instead of two. In fact,
they are elephants
Strange 10 say, the first elephants
ever seen by Europeans, centuries ago,
were soldiers too. The Europeans had
to fight them, AS well as men, in the
great wars of the east.
In those days, elephants went into
battle clad in armor. Sometimes they
bore towers on their backs, filled with
warriors. Some of those old soldier
elephants were trained to cut and
thrust with huge scimetars, which they
carried with their trunks. An elephant
can lift half Il ton with his trunk.
Think, then, what tremendous weapon
such a swordsman could swing.
Now. the Europeans employ elephants
in their armies. i'm the east. The British
soldier elephants in India to-day. how
ever Hot MY aiS WI
ers; they bear the baggage, and drag
the heavy cannon.
Not long ago seventeen raw recruits
were shipped from Ragoon to Madras.
Most of them were newly captured ami
mails, purchased for the government OF
India up in the country of British Bur-
nah.
One by one these huge animals were
hoisted from the wharf in n great sling,
and lowered into the hold of the ship
The elephants did not like going to sea
in that way at all. They struggled
nightly. They roared. They grabbed
ut the rigging with their trunks as they
were slung up in mid-air. And then
down in the hold, they were SO furious
that it was more difficult to get them
| out of the sling than it had been to get
them in.
If any little Burmese boys knew
what was going on, and if they are like
little American boys, l am sure they
| were there somewhere on the wharf
and am surer still that they shouted
In the excitement well-nigh as loud a,
tile elephants roared.-C. Z. Stuart, IL
