FREEZING BUTTER.
Every Shipper should Give the Process
Immediate Confederation.


Tie great problem to be solved by
The producers is to find some method
by which the products of the farm may
be put upon the markets when the con-
sumers are ready to receive the m for ac-
tual use. In regard to the butter m arllet
writer in the Creamery journal says:
AS Is well known to every one con-
nected with the business the bulk of
The butter product of the country is
made in the summer and fall months,
and if the entire supply was thrown
onto the market at the time of the
production the prices realized would be
very low, lower, indeed, than we have
any idea of; and in order to protect the
over-plus, cold storage warehouses
nave been erected and large quantities
Of butter held in them each year for
the past twenty odd years. Now there
are great many men who do not hold
their butter and who don't believe in
t, but somebody must hold it, and,
therefore, the fact remains that one of
The most important subjects for consid-
Grafton by the men connected with the
business is the proper holding and car
wing of summer and fall butter. carry
ing it in such manner that it will
come out of storage later in the season
showing a good flavor and being clean
and sweet.
Various experim ents have been tried
and constant improvements have been
made in refrigeration. We are now far
ahead of what we We're even two years
ago. With the improvements of re-
trigcration and the ability to produce
a very low temperature at a minimum
cost we are now able to freeze butter
and hold it at very low temperature
at a'cost as low or lower than formerly
paid for ordinary cold storage. After
experiments covering a range of the
past five years it has been thoroughly
demonstrated that this is the only
proper way to hold butter. Butter
made last June, frozen solid and held
until May, came out in elegant condi-
ton. Not tub oily and all of very
fine flavor. Ordinary goods hold their
own and deterorate very little. Freez-
ing has come to stay, and we think
every shipper will do well to give it his
consideration. Repeated experiments
have shown us that butter frozen will
stand up longer after being taken out
of the freezer than that held in the cold
storage. A certain amount of ferment-
alton takes place in the cold storage
butter that is prevented by the freezing
process, and when the butter is taken
from the freezer it has better keeping
qualities than butter held in ordinary
cold storage.

She tried to conceal her consciousness
but it grew into embarrassment instead,

upon him. There was no response in
them to his wiles They were cold, cruel,
tyrannical, invincible, irresistible.
He squirmed under their basilisk
glassiness and looked out of the win

But they followed him.
They crept over his helpless feet,
which seemed TO him to extend clear
across the car; they followed slowly up
the faint gray line of his trousers: they
spread out over his cheerful hued vest;
they grasped the lappels of his coat
and withered the rose in his button

their claws in his mustachc; they

they rumpled his hair; they marched in
dreadful monotony around his hat and

began their awful work over again.

the first so az to hold it while both
hands are employed to bind the bud

ward, crossing above the bud, return
and tie below the bud as shown in Fig
s. The most important point in tying
Is to bind the bark firmly and smoothly
over the bud. After the trees have been
budded week or two they should be
examined, and if the growth is such
that the bands cut into the stock so as
to injure it they should be loosened and
rctied or cut on the back side if the bud
is well united.
The next spring after budding the
stock is cut off with sharp knife,
placing the blade on the opposite side
of the bud at the height of the cross
cut and making an upward stroke so
that the knife will come out about one
inch above the bud When growth be-

POULTRY PICKINGS.

A FEW old hens sitting round that lay
no eggs take the cost of their feed and
care from the profits, besides occupying
room needed by others.
1T may be strictly business to sell off
all the best fowls and keep what can
not be sold, but it is hardly treating
your own family right even if it does
make a little more money.
FooD that is partly decomposed Is
not fit to feed to chickens, and if given
them is liable to produce disease. 1t
will be more economical to throw away
tins kind of food than to let the poultry
eat it.
IT is rarely profitable to send turkeys
to market unless they are in good
thrifty condition. Thin, poor turkeys
usually sell at the lowest prices, and
a short feeding would increase the
weight as well as secure better
prices Even with low prices it is
rarely best to send fowls to market in a
poor condition. The gain in weight by

good profit on the cost of the feed.-St

Jerked Beef as q Steady Diet.

Everywhere in Brazil jerked beef is
an important article of food. Immense
quantities of it are exported from Ur-
uguay and the Argentine Republic,
and it is stated that not less than 30,-
900 tons of it are annually brought
into Brazil. Think of it--30, 900 tons
year of that leathery, indigestible
substance consumed by this scanty
population. 1t furnishes the staple
food for plantation laborers and for
the lower classes in cities. Indeed, it
may be called the Brazilians' national
dish, for it is as omnipressent OH every
table, at least twice day, stewed
with beans and grease and garlic, as
the frejoles Of Mexico or the rice of
China. Another great delicacy here
about is bacalao (codfish), as highly
esteemced among the Brazilians as
partridge, planked shad and terrapin
in the District of Columbia. At least
10000 of Goldfish are annually sent to
Brazil from the United States and
Nova Scotia, and the people are so
fond of it that the fresh fish of their
own rivers arc entirely ignored for
"bacalao," which is feature of every
banquet, as indispensable as roast
turkey at New England Thanks
giving. But when prepared in Por-
tuguese fashion and served on the
festive board the Yankee that caught
