The question is often asked whether
butter made from sweet cream will keep
AZ well as that from ripened cream pro
cess. Heretofore the question has mol
been answered, for the reason that nc
one knew. An experiment to test the
keeping quality of sweet and sour cream
butter was begun at the Iowa Expert
ment Station in December, 1889, and was
completed IN August last. The two tubs
we're stored in a cellar at forty-six de
grecs without ice, and kept in the eeilal
until June 20s when the temperature
rose to sixty-six degrees and they were
packed on ice. At the end OF foul
months, both tubs were found to bt
sweet. At the end of six months the
sweet cream butter was in the better
condition.

The chief of the agricultural section OF
the Columbian Exposition. Col. Buchan-
an, has sent out letters to all OF the
state boards OF agriculture advising them
as to the design Of the proposed forestry
building. The building will be about
900 by 500 feet. and will occupy a COM
manding position on the lake shore. Ii
will be designed to illustrate In Its con-
structicn and arrangement the forestry
wealth of the world. The architecture
Is of a rustic character and will make a
beautiful effect. A feature will be the
wide colonuade along the front of the
building and across either end. The sup
porting columns Of this colonnade will
be trunks of trees with the bark on,
representing the characteristic woods OF
the United States. This will not only
add to the unique beauty Of the struct'
ure, but will furnish the states an oppor'
tunity to show specimens OF their trees.
These tree trunks will be twenty five
feet long, about twenty inches In liam
eter at the base, tapering gradually to
the top. Each trunk will have attached
TO Il a tablet on which will be engraved
the name of the state furnishing it, the
name Of the tree, and the estimate of the
quantity of such timber in the state oil
territory. Chief Buchanan asks each
state board OF agriculture to send on
three of such tire, trunks.

IN A TIGHT PLACE.
The Kansas Central Will Lose Its
Franchise.


Franchise.
TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. 1.-The Kansas
railway commission is bringing to a
crisis the matter of rebuilding the Kan
sas Central railway, branch of the
Union Pacific. A year ago the commls-
sion reported to the governor that the
road was not in fit condition for the
safety of the travelling public. Early
this morning after tour over the road
with General Manager Clark, the com
mission ordered the company to rebuild
the road. The road showed inability to
make the repairs, pleading poverty of
the Union Pacific. The commission
issued peremptory order confirming
its previous order, and threatened to
revoke the company's charter.
General Manager Clark replied last
Monday, that while the company would
to lose its charter, it would not contest
action by the state looking to that end,
nor would 1T comply with the commits
sioners' order. The commissioners To-
day laid the matter, together with all
the correspondence on the subject. be-
fore the governor as the chief executive
OF the state. 1t will be his duty to see that
the order Of the commission is enforced.
The commissioners and attorney gen
eral were in consultation with the gov
ernor during the entire morning.
The commission in its report to the
governor describes the condition of the
road as follows: "The rails in use. if
new and made of steel instead of iron.
would not be laid by any railroad com
pany nor permitted to be laid by
any statement of the authority for use
as railroad standard gauge, motive
power and rolling stock. But thew
arc not new or in condition to Justify
continued use even if they were of ade
quate weight They are bent so as to
make sharp curves in the middle of the
rails and sharp angles at their connect
ing ends, to say nothing of Sworn and
broken threads which alone forbid their
use. Rods and switches are in like
worn and unsafe condition. This con-
dition of the road, which has driven
from it all train service but single
mixed train day, with time card of
eleven miles an hour, cannot be met or
justified by the claim of insufficient
earnings for the road, and it's manage
ments prevents patronage and make
earnings impossible"
Besides bringing action to nullify the
roads franchise it is not improbable
that criminal case will be brought

LADY DIXIE ON DRESS.
What She Thinks Should Be the
Ideal Costume.


Perhaps, just now, when so much is
being said on dress reform, it may be
interesting to recall Lady DiXie's idea
of an ideal walking costume for women.
A few years ago she began a vigorous
crusade against the long skirt. "The
bugbear SKIRT" she calls it, "hampering
to the limbs, the spouse of mud and
dirt.''
She does not want women to adopt
the garb of men, because it is so ugly.
She says: Il unhesitatingly declare
that the day is fast approaching when
the hideous and senSeess long skirt
will die natural death. | am not an
advocate of trousers for women. for
think trousers are hideOus at any time"
But what she does advocate very strong
ly and earnestly is the general adop-
tion for street wear of costume SINH
lar to that which she herself puts on
when III Scotland. 1t consists OF fian-
mel shirt. knickerbockers, short kilt
skirt and loose jacket, style Of dress
not at all strange or novel, except in
its adaptation to general wear. And it
is the lack of startling originality in the
idea that is one of its chief recommends
tionS. For it is the oddness and unusal-
ness of most of the proposed reform
garments chat cause their condemnation
without trial and almost at sight. Very
few women, however much they may
rebel iii secret against the tyranny of
their present style of dress, care to
make guys or spectacleS of them
selves by donning OutlandiSh costumes
that have only a promised, and rather
dubious, possibility of superior comfort
to recommend them.

INTERNATIONAL RAILWAY.
Prospects for It's Building Are
Satisfactory.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-Messrs. Cas-
satt, Davis and Kerens, the commission
appointed to represent the United States
on the international railway commission,
have submitted report to Secretary
Blaine on the progress of the work. of
the S1SO,00O appropriated by congress
for the fiscal years ending June. 1891,
and 1892. they report that S599l0 re-
malned III the treasury on the 1st of
August last. Chill has paid So, 1000 and
Colombia $4,000 their quota to the COM
mission fund so that the commission has
about $4,000 for carrying on the work.
The reports of the different survey
ing parties, the report says, have been
very satisfactory and judging from the
conference of the delegates from other
republics last winter and the cordial
manner in which the surveying parties
have been received and assisted, the
commissioners are encouraged to be-
heye that the republics generally will
welcome and give substantial aid pro-
lection toward the construction of the
contemplated railway.
