An Important Question.

The question which dairymen throughout
his country are asking each other, What
Is to be the outcome of the struggle between
oleomargarine and pure wholesome butter:'
is an important one. Its significance in this
State increases with tie increase in the
dairy interests and with the increase in the
use of oleo among our people. There isn't
the lights st doubt but what the use of the
bogus butter in our larger cities is on the
increase. Even if sold according TO resttic
tons and sold as cleo it would be doubtful
if its sale should be allowed. Canada has
practically prohibited the sale of tLat ari
Gle in the Dominion. Indeed the law of
Canada Is 80 strict as to prohibit the manu-
fac;ure of kim cheese. In Canada, too,
the milk is paid for according to its rich
ness, the only Just measure of its value.
Oleo is sold in our country on an alarming
ly extensive scale. Th.re is not enough
good butter to go around; there are
millions of capital behind the butteIine in
dustry and the wealth is unscruprlously
used to secure favorable |. gislation as well
as to defy whatever restrictions the laws
may impose. The cheapuess of the article
appeals to class that cannot or does not
wish to pay for good butter. So long as the
opportunities exist for making oleomarga-
rine from impure and unhealthy pro-
ducts there remain graver objections
against it than on the ground that it is
counterfeit. But when it is considered that
the product Of the dairy in this country last
year was $i00 600 600 it seems unnecessary
that the dairymen shou d submit to having
their products counterfeited by butteiine"
which is widely sold as butter at coed
price. We believe that with oleo manu-
factured unler careful inspl elton and sold
for oleo at its real value The dairymen of
this country have little to fear from it. To
bring even this about is very difficult task
from the fact that the capital invested in
the manufacture of the bogus butter is
largely centralized and can combine easily
and effectually TO promote the sale of its
counterfeit wares. This country is not
likely to pattern after Russia as regards the
laws of the latter but could the Russian
law respe citing the sale of bogus butter be
copied and enforce, in this country
the situation would be much i'm.
proved over what it is now. In that
country the stuff mu be colore1 in some
bright color other than yellow, in packa ges
of the same color. 1t cannot be sold in
shops where genuine butter is cold. and
every bogus butter shop must carry a sign
board informing the public of the fact. At
| all public places where food is prepared
with bogus butter public announce nent of
the fact must be made on the bill of fare.

Farm Notes.

Now is good time to look back upon the
work in your grange the past season and
see if you can think of any way il which it
might have been improved. II so "jot
down your suggestions. They will be val.
liable for reference next wi ter.
Farmers are coming more AMI more t,
appreciate the value Of the corn crop upon
their farms. Notwithstanding the cheap
ness of the Western article the best far
mers believe that all expenses reckoned they
can raise their own corn more cheaply than
they can buy it, that corn culture with
proper dressing is an improvement of the
land; that on fai ly level land machine cul.
ture can be made to do nearly all the work
also that corn from the right kind of silo
may form large part of the best ration for
dairy cows. As the planting season draws
near the problem Of keeping off the crows
is vexipg one for many farmers. About
the best method we have heard advanced is
to tar the corn. Crows do not like the tar al.
though they have been known to pull tarred
corn freely and leave it on the ground, ar
parently out of pure mischief. A. rule,
howeve: corn properly tarred ffords the be 8,
security against crows short of the sentinel
always on duty arme with shot gun. In
tarring the corn care should be had not to
coat it so entirely as TO leave no part Of the
kernel exposed to the influences of the
earth nor to soak the corn in no. water. A
very little Tar on the kermit will render il
unpalatable for jim Crow.
