COLOR or BUTTER.
The yellow Tint IL Due tn the Yeiiov
Ou IN Pumpkins

vhe yellow Tint IL Due To the Seiiow
Ou IN Pumpkins.
There Is some interesting discussion
going ON just now in regard To the
cause IF the color of futier. Our read
rrs will remember. says the New York
Times. how often it has been insisted
upon ia these columns that the food has
rs much To do with this color as IL has
to do with other forms Of fat in the ami.
NAL. and that the oil in the o IL
really the most important element in
this color. This. however. is denied by
some who ave no special experimen tal
information To build their belief upon.
At the-prescnt time many buOer makers
are feeding pumpkins to the cows. and
the rich yellow color Of the flesh of this
food Is due to the large quantity OF
deep yellow oil in this flesh On the
well established principle that h fats
of the food 20 directly into the milk.
without change Of digestion. il would
only be reasonable To believe that the
yellow butter made when the pump
kins are fed is due to this yellow oil in
the food.
The flesh of the pumpkin and the
squash contains. according to analyses
made by Prof Storer. the large pro-
portion Of 81 per cent of oil in the
flesh. Q per cent in the rind. and % per
cent. in the seeds and fbrous strings
connected with them. And all these
have a deep yellow color Scientific
principle and practice are both cor
robor alive Of the common belief OF
farmers in this respect, and the habit
Of growing pumpkins and feeding them
to the cows is fully justified and is to
b strongly recommended
There is a conn mon opinion to the
effect that pumpkins are injurious TO
the cows. rs ~tenoing TO reduce the
quantity Of milk given. This is quite
a mistake. 1t is founded on the fact
that the seeds of this tribe of plants
are slightly diuretic. and are used in
medicine as a remedy for tape worm
But, as almost all the medicinal proper
ties of plants are contained in the oils
in them. and the oil Of pumpkin and
squash seeds is used for God purposes
aud without any deleterious effect.
there is no reason for the common be-
lief. and this kind Of food. equally nu'
tritious for the starch and in 1t,
may be made use of without any fear
Of danger in any W.
This deep yellow color has beer
known TO effect the fat of pigs that have
been faitened on pumpkins SO much as
to make it unstable. on the suspicion
that the pigs have been diseased The
food is highly fattening. and one O
the cheapest and most h~eslthful, bu'
rs yellow bacon is not desired sc mucl
as yellow butter is. it will be desirable
to Iced pumpkins to pigs with buck
wheat. which to some extent counter
acts the high color of the former. AM
the addition Of bran or shorts to tn
food will be a further help in thi
direction.

Tight.

If you want to find a cynic, ring the I'M
dertaker's bell. There are.no blanks.
At the risk of getting a trife cynical
yourself, you might lure the undertaken
into discourse on his profession 1t is
easily enough done. Try simple inqui-
ry about whether the present hard times
are affecting the business. 1t is the only
button you will need to press. The un-
dertaker will do the rest. 1t was the
method employed by a Sun reporter the
other day to secure the confidence of a
Sixth avenue dealer in assorted funer-
ais.
He sighed and nodded his head sadly.
But" suggested the reporter, ''people
will die, even if the times are hard. In
fact, that might hurry up some And the
dead must be buried, and the undertaken
must do it."
'See here, " said the man of collins, elf
you feel called upon to shuttle off your
mortal coil, and if you want to have tip
top casket and big funeral and breezy
spot in Greenwood, you just take my ad-
vice and wait bit You see, sentiment
is all right It's a fine thing But it isn't
in 1t with hunger and cold and self-denial.
Inc place people D6gln TO economic is in
the luXuries, and sentiment is a luxury.
If you will insist upon dying now YOU
may be sure that your friends will grieve
sorely over the event, but-a large part
of their sorrow will be because Won
selected such an inconvenient season for
your decease.
If Pm to be your undertaken" pursued
the cynic, as compOsedly as if he were
talking of inviting the reporter out to
lunch, Il would esteem it a personal favor
if you will leave me the price of your
funeral in your will"
but -"
ooh, yes you 6eel that your friends
would give you a big send-off And SO
they would, probably. / haven't doubt
Of it. But who would pay TIE bill? Now,
you're a nice young man, I'm sure. And
I'd like to see you put away in good shape
That is, of course, when your timecomes
But much as might like TO see you have
a funeral worthy of you, don't feel like
doing it myself. OF course you understand
that. Yes, Of course. Now have buried
a great many people out of my own poclt
ct, so to speak, but I'llnever get any cred
IL for it, not even in heaven, because the
