The Boston Herald claims that the
new copyright law is helping American
authors "because it prevents the market
from being flooded with cheap English
reprints" This means that poor read
ers who cannot afford English reprints
under the additional prices necessitated
by the new law must content themselves
with the works of home authors. An
American author who can only get a
reading" by excluding foreign works
is unworthy of his calling. 1t is a
virtual confession of inferiority to de-
mand such protection" and humiliat
ing to talented writers, who are willing
to stand or fall on their merits.-TrOy
Press. All very fine in theory, but how
many publishers will nay authors for
MSS, when excellent English books may
be pirdted at will That kind of com
petition no amount of merit can over
come.

A SINGULAR HORSE.

A funny story is told of Dean Swift,
joke at the expense of other people, as
most witty people are. One very cold
night, when he was travelling, he stop
ped at a little i'm. There was only one
fire in the house, and the guests of the
inn, crowding about it, left no place for
the new conner.
With a solemn face Dean Swift called
to the hostler and told him to get peck
of oysters Immediately and take them
out to his horse.
"Will your horse eat oysters, sir?" the
astonished man asked.
Just take them out and see, =" said the
horses master.
The people around the fire stared at
the man with the curious horse, and
nearly every one of them left his seat
and went out to see the remarkable horse
eating oysters.
Then the cunning Dean made himself
comfortable in the warmest corner, and
ordered his supper.
Presently back came the hostler, with
the disappointed crowd after him.
"He won't touch them, sir" cried the
hostler.
"Then take the foolish animal all the
oats he can eat" replied Dean Swift.
"You can bring the oysters here. I'll
eat them myself. "-Harper'S Young
People.

ounce of salt to one pound of butter;
then placed upon the worker, rolling it
out and with a cloth wet in brine re-
moving all the water. Then cover very
evenly with salt, rolling up and repeat
ing the process; about three times will
take all the salt, finishing up the job in
about three or four minutes. 1t is at
once stamped with the Kenerson stamp.
Our cloths are cut 20 inches in length
and hemmed, using one cloth for each
tray holding six pounds.
Through the entire process of manu-
featuring, from the time of milking
until the butter is sent to market, clean
illness must be strictly observed The
milk pals must be thoroughly washed,
scalded and dried, and no seam either on
the inside or outside left to fill up with
dirt or milk; brush kept for the pur-
pose is used. Then the milk cans must
be washed and scalded each time the
milk is drawn off. The cream cans must
receive the same treatment and in addi-
ton thoroughly be dried every time we
churn. The churn is too often sighted,
and the mistress of the dairy must keep
close watch here. I often add little
soda to the water while washing, after
wards scalding with clear water; boiling
water is indispensable to make sweet
butter.
And, lastly, natural love for the dairy
is essential, as l believe no man or wo-
man can make first-class butter without
this love for the eating. Every success
full dairy man or woman must throw his
or her entire talent and time as far as
possible into the work, making it a
study, reading dairy works, talking
dairy talk, comparing notes with other
dairymen whenever opportunity offers,
always trying to climb to the very top of
| the ladder.
So shall this world be redeemed from
old soap grease, and battle in the sun
shine of pure uncolOred, adulterated
genuine sweet aromatic butter.

ESSAY.

Thirty-fve years ago we moved on to
our little hillside farm, having been a
farmers daughter, yet knowing very lit
tie in regard to butter-making.
We decided that our farm was best
adapted for growing grass; therefore a
dairy would be the most profitable for
us.
AS we commenced at the beginning,
unlearned and unskilled, we very soon
saw the wisdom of getting more hight, or
we might always remain at the begin
ming.
Our first effort was to find the best
butter makers and learn their methods;
next, to get the best dairy papers, always
keeping as our watchword, progression.
And we know by actual experience that
the dairy man or woman who "knows it
all'' is sure to get cleft"
No method that we have yet found is
not open to criticism.
Not many years ago, while making a
visit, the master of the house made the
remark: "This butter was made last
June by Mr.. s., a noted dairyman,
and is just as good now as when made
six months ago." When the fact was
that very butter was rank, made so by
keeping, and the poor wise man in eat
ing from it every day had not discovered it.
it. Fnly one was in the habit of eating
daily from fresh made butter could de-
tect difference.
Therefore l believe the only reason
why people (wise scientists sometimes)
