FROZEN MUTTON.
Preparation of the New Zealand Product
F.. for tho Market

Preparation of the New Zealand Product
for tho Market.
The reason why Argentine muttcn
generally is of inferior price to that of
New Zealand has a three-fold explana
ton. In the first place New Zealand
possesses to-day a mutton-producing
breed superior to that known in the
Plate. In the second, the New Zealand
Cur feeds his stock during the winter
time with extra forage, while in the Ar
gentine the sheep are allowed to Craze
upon the same bare pampa during the
dead season. The result of this is that
the New Zealander produces an even,
well-grown carcass, while there is sent
home from the Plate one upon which
hasty covering of fat has been put dur
ing the spring months of the year. The
difference between the two carcasses
will readily be noted by anyone who
rays visit to the cattle market. Third
ly, the freezer in New Zealand freezes
the mutton on account of the breeder;
and in the Argentine the freezer buys
from the breeder. The disadvantage of
the latter system, so long as the breeder
has no knowledge of the requirements
of the market, is apparent. The New
Zealand breeder selects his wethers
with care, rejecting any which will give
an inferior weight, Or which are III
sufficiently fattenec for the butcher
He RENTS them in small droves to the
freezing establishments, and takes
every care that they shall arrive in per-
Feet order. The Argentine breeder. Oh
the other hand, makes a contract with
the representative of the freezer to sell
given number; and the latter binds
himself to remove them within certain
date.-N. Y. Ledger.

MYSTERIOUS EGYPTIAN LAKE.

Singular Body Of Water from Which
Egypt Draws Its Salt
During the reign of Said Pasha 8
causeway was built across the Lake o,
Mareotis with the result that the west
ern portion of the lake became highly
impregnated with salt, while the east,
ern part remained as formerly, only
slightly brackish. Scientists are not
satisfied as to the source of the i'm.
mense quantity of salt contained in the
lake, and some have conjectured an un-
derground passage from the sea. How
ever, there is no visible channel by
which the sea water might enter, and
as one can ride all around it, it is to all
intcnts and purposes lake.
Its length is about nine miles and it's
breadth four, and it furnishes the ell
tire salt supply for Egypt. A minia-
tIre railway runs from the workshops
to the lake, where the salt is cut and
trucks filled by gangs of Bedouins, who.
during the season, are kept at work day
and night. At the work shops the salt
is ground and packed, and from there
distributed all over the country.
AS one stands on the thick crust OF
salt near the shore, which stretches as
far as the eye can see, one feels exactly
as if standing on field of ice, and in adj
dition to the dazzling whiteness of the
salt, its beauty is enhanced by pink
tinge, which, at the edges of the lake,
deepens to mauve. The cause of this
color is also matter of conjecture, and
has been attributed to minute organ
origin, it fades as the salt becomes dry,
but while damp the effect of the inspris-
oned color is indescribably lovely.
To get an entirely different phase of
the sight one must ride over the cause
way. Here one has the ice field on the
right and on the left the ripping blue
Mareotis. About half way across, where
the lake is deeper and the salt crust has
not formed, the scene changes. The
water has the still and heavy look of the
Dead sea, but unlike the latter, which
looks like molten brass, this milky lake
with the clouds and the blue sky re-
fected in it might be likened to a vast
opal, and the setting sun, throwing
fiery ball into its depths, completes the
similitude.
This enchanting scene, however. is
eyanescent. AS the salt is formed by
evaporation, it is only during the hot
months that this can take place,
and with the first autumn rain the pic
ture fades away, and the sparkling ice
field resolves itself into placid lake of
Telegraph.

AN IMPROVED WHITE HOUSE

The Presidential Family to Have Greater
Conveniences-
The residence of the president of the
United States ought to be worthy of
the Office. The present white house is
equal to all the requirements of such
a residence, SO far as it goes. 1t Is Il
simple and dignified building, whose
beauty is a constant delight to appre-
ciative persons. 1t was conceived and
carried out by the. architect who
planned it in the proper spirit, but it is
Lot large enough for the uses to which
it is necessarily put. The country and
the city of Washington have grown. and
the presidents house have not grown
with them A large part of it is given
up to the business Offices of the presl-
dent, his private secretary. and his
clerks, and the presidents family are
deprived of the use of another large
part of the lower floor of the house be-
cause it is necessarily on public view
most of the time. The family is there
fore cramped for proper accommo-
dations, and there are no roons Tor the
entertainment of guests. Moreover.
the house is so badly arranged as t.
entrances, exits, and Railways that a
state reception there is always an un-
comfortable and dangerous jam, while
many an invited guest, and many OIL
GERS who attend certain functions under
orders, have been made seriously iii be-

er until they could gain admittance
through the single door that can be
used for the purpose.
The deficiencies Of the white house
are SO thoroughly recognized in Wash
ington that for many years efforts
have been making to secure worth
ier accommodations for the president.
Some of these efforts have been in the
wrong dixsc1on- because they haTc

contemplated other buildings, foreign
to the intent and character of the white
house, within the same grounds. Other
efforts still are attempts of spectators
to move the site of the mansion to the
hills north OF the city.
The white house, with all its charms
and memories, should be preserved, aud
it should remain on it's present beau
tiful and historic site, its fine grounds
unencumberd by other structures. In
furtherance of this idea, plan pre-
pared by Mr.. Arthur j. Dillon shows
conclusively that the white house can
be made, not only abundantly spacious,
but even improved, while its architec-
tural features will be at the same time
preserved.-Harper's Weekly.
