The Art Of Packing Butter.

he Art OF Packing Butter,
The clumsiest hand can daub paint
on canvas, but it takes an artists
hand and brain to translate the pig
ments into a masterpiece. So n
can pack butter into a tub or pail,
but it is an art, requiring skill and
Judgment, to pack it in the best way.
! An Ohio agricultural journal des-
Icribes q method OF packing butter
, which may fairly be designated as an
art. It Includes, in the first place, the
transfer OF the butter from the churn
to the package without the use Of a
butter worker, the butter being thor
oughly washed in the churn. and the
salt worked in before the transfer.
Then with a fork or paddle the butter
is transferred to the package in small
quantities, and pressed firmly down
with the paddle or q wooden potatoe
masher.
The water that accumulates on top
OF the butter is poured off by tipping
the package occasionally. The pack
age is more than filled and then the
butter is cut off the edge of the tub
with a strong silk thread. This will
leave the granules exposed on the SUR
face, and the purchaser can see at q
glance that thepackage containsgran-
ular butter. r
Such q package bears on it the
stamp Of an artistic touch, and it is
wisely suggested that if the maker is
sure that he can warrant it to be
Istrictly sgilt edge" he should not
hesitate to saysso on a label attached
to the package, with his name and ad.
dress. By-this means he establishes a
relationship between, himself and the
consumer, which will pretty surely
prove a.proiitable one to both parties.
In fact, this carrying of the artistic
idea into the domain of the practical
is one that deserves a good deal moro
consideration than it usually gets. It
isn't a "moonshine'', by q long way.
A package of butter, or berries, or
apples, or any other product that can
be made to look better by care and
skill, will sell for ahigher price because
OF the.artistic touch-and surely that
is business" inthe truest sense of the
term. - =

A Hellenic Warming.

A large part of ancient Greece was
covered with heavy forest, and it is
only within a comparatively recent
period that the land has been denu-
ded of it's noble woodlands. Now it's
rugged hills and fertile wales are we'll
nigh bare OF trees, and as a conse-
quence the rainfall, that should be
ample, has SO greatly diminished that
serious droughts are frequent and in
creasing in length and severity.
There are theorists who maintain
that there is really no connection be-
tween forest growth and the rainfall.
They point to the heavy floods period
cally occurring in regions despoiled of
their forests, and triumphantly cite
the annual record of inches of rain in
support of their contention. But we
believe that experience will bear out
the assertion that in countries which
havelong been denuded oftheir forests,
like Greece and Asia Minor, the rain
fall has actually diminished, while in
those where the destruction has been
more recent the annual rainfall may
remain the same, or nearly so, for a
considerable period, but it descends
at longer Intervals and in heavier
quantities.
: In other words, we believe experience
has demonstrated that the forest
acts asia necessary regulator of the
rainfall, causing more frequent and
gentler showers. and thus enormous
" assists in the formation of agri,
culture. The farmer breads the rain
fall that comes in bulk, SO to speak
He wants it in quiet showers, and
this an ample forest growth secures.
We need in this country to take
warning from the condition OF such
countries as Greece, and betimes to
put "a limit to the destruction o.
our forests, lest in their destruction
we jeopardize the interest Of our
great agricultural industries.

An Improved Devicefor Microscopic
stud

A most valuable addition has been
made to the methods in vogue of OBJ
tanning critical illumination for the
microscope. The illumination is said
to be CRITICAL" when the image of the
radiant, lamp flame or other source
of illumination, is brought to a focus
by mirror OF condenser at the plane
of the object under examination.
Skilled m~icroscopists are pretty we'll
agreed that the most convenient and
feasible means of obtaining critical il
lumination is by focusing the edge,
not the fat side, OF a half-inch kero-
sene flame on the object.
DR.. Henry g. Piffard, who in his
Interchangeable studies, extending
over a number OF years, has made use
OF nearly all the known methods of
artificial illumination. Including the
electric arc, electric incandescent with
cooled carbon of 100 candle power,
calcium light, Welsbach gas light and
oil, has invented q new lamp
which embodies the best features of
modern practice in microscopic illu-
mination. .
The ordinary electric lamp in do
mestic use has an illuminating value
OF sixteen candles, and it's flament is
brought to incandescence by current
having an intensity of about half an
ampere under q pressure of from lis
to 12O volts. The light is distributed
over q filament FIVE inches in length.
Such Il light is not desirable for micro
scopic work, in which the light rays
should be more CONDENSED by the use
Of q shorter and thicker 6lament.
The life of such lamp, however, on
an ordinary street circuit would be
brief, aa q certain length of flament
is required to Withstand the pressure
Of the current from the main. DR..
Piffard has overcome this difficulty by
devising q lamp Of fifteen candle pow
or, requiring q current OF about three
amperes under q pressure Of fifteen
volts. The popularity OF this lamp is
that instead 90 having = ilament Of
tho ordinary horseshoe form and Of

BY. Rail- to the Stars.

- ~ "aA W Lt1o SIdTS.
In a recent lecture on Fixed Stars"
DIR. David Gill wanted to give an
illustration of the distance to Gen.
tauri. This is what he said as re-
ported in the Boston Globe; eve
shall suppose that some wealthy dir
ectors for want Of outlet for their
energy and capital construct a rail-
way to Centauri. We shall neglect,
for the present, the engineering diff
ficulties-a mere detail-and suppose
them overcome and the railway open
for traffic. We shall 90 further, and
suppose that the director HAYES found
the construction of such a railway to
have been peculiarly easy, and that
the p~roprie:ors of interstellar space
had not been exorbitant in their
terms for right OF way.
"Therefore. with O view to encour-
age traffic, the directors had made
the fare exceedingly moderate, viz:
first-class at 2 cents per 100 miles.
Desiring to take advantage OF these
facilities, a gentleman, by way of pro-
viding himself with small charge for
the journey, buys up the national
debt, and, presenting himself ut the
Office, demands a first-class Centauri.
For this he tenders in payment the
scrip OF the national debt of England,
which over the cost of his ticket;
