Dairy and Creamery.

In New Jersey crimson clover has al
most entirely taken the place of rye as
catch crop
! A dealer in New York city who had
been caught the third time adulterating
milk was fined $500 and sent to prison
for three. months. Served him right.
The trouble with the Chicago milk
was that when tested it was found to be
like SO many other things in this world
too thin. At some of the restaurants
the rascally proprietors were selling
what they called cream" that actu-
ally contained only from to per cent
butter fat. Those men certainly can
never get into heaven unless they change
their ways.
The so called cream people get at
restaurants is something fearful and
wonderful. Often it is not even good
quality of full milk. 1t is one of the
saddest pities of the time that preachers
do not turn their labors in the direction
of unearthing the greed that constantly
adulterates food and drink up to the
last point where it is bearable and then
gives small sum to the church to con-
done the crime.
Never lose sight of the fact that hogs,
dairy COWS and poultry make a trio
which will lift the mortgage from any
mans farm.
American creamery men, look at
this paragraph: Denmark furnished
most of the $50, 600, 900 worth of butter
imported by England last year. Eng
land also spent $40, 900, 600 for foreign
cheese in 1894, of which amount tho
United States furnished $1,000 and
Canada $13. O0O
'Wants 'Em Bad"
A little story is told in Bruce's "Iife OF
General Houston which illustrates the
familiar way in which military orders were
expressed sometimes during the civil war.
In certain battle Confederate COM
mander stood upon hilltop gloomily
watching the Union battery which was
making havoc of his troops. At the foot
of the hill, on the other side, was his last
body of reserves; by his side stood his aid
de-camp in shirt sleeves.
"Tom, F" said the general quietly, with
out turning his head, but his lips CULVER
ing, II want them guns-want EN- bad"
The aid nodded, turned his horse and
dashed down hill to the reserve.
Boys" he shouted, jerking his thumb
over his shoulder, "the old man says he
needs those guns over there. Suppose we
go get them for him.
There was yell of approval, and in
few minutes the general had the guns.

At present there seems almost I'M
doubtedly, q recrudescenee Of mali
otry in Sicily itself. The trouble is
I that if q man be once q Mafiote he is
! always a Mafote. Many are drawn
into the league in youth, UNCONSCIOUS
of its true nature; but knowledge
brings no withdrawal, but only
stronger allegiance. And even those
outside the actual membership are
tinctured with its spirit. All the pop
ulation of Sicily, the rural population.
! at any rate, is largely dominated by
Mafiote principles. It is, for exam
ple. . doctrine Of the Malta that one
must never give testimony injurious
to his neighbor, however guilty that
neighbor may be. This doctrine is
practically universal, both in theory
and practice, among the Sicilian peas
antry. And SO it comes to pass that
brigands are sheltered and defended,
often beyond the reach of justice, and
often by the very people who have
suffered in property from their
maraudings. Add to this the fact that
''the truth is only told in the confess
sional" is the most popular of Sicilian
proverbs, and the almost 'insuperable
difficulties in the way of suppfessing
outlawry by judicial processes may be
perceived.
The testimony of italian writer's
gives the darkest OF views of these
outlaws. The Maas, says Bonfadini,
sis not secret society exactly, but
the development and perfection of
usurped authority, directed to every
evil end; it is the solidarity, instino-
tive, brutal, selfish, which unites, as
against the State, the laws and the
regular institutions. all the individ-
uals and all the social Glasses who de-
sire to draw their subsistence and com.
fort, not from labor, but from vio-
lence, fraud and intimidation. Fran
chetti defines it as "the union Of peo-
pie Of every rank, Of every profession.

parenk bond, continuous and regular,
are always united for their mutual in
terests without any consideration of
