In regard to tl& shipments of Amer
lean butter to London to get definite
comparison made with butter of other
countries, it has been found difficult to
get an unprecedented comparison. Sec
rotary Wilson directed his agent at
London to buy representative pack
ages of fine butter from various sources
and send them in cold storage to New
York. This was recently done and the
foreign lot included sample casks of
the best English DORSET shire), Danish
and French butter and boxes from
Australian and Irish creameries, as

the London market. These buffers
have been critically examined by the
leading butter merchants and COM
pared in New York with packages re-
served from a lot Of Minnesota and
Massachusetts, creamery buffers, lately
sent abroad.
Except the Australian these buffers
were all about the same age. The
Danish, which ranks first in the sailed
butter supply Of the English markets,
was little newer and fresher than the
Minnesota package. The samples were
scored by Butter Inspector Healy of the
New York mercantile exchange in his
report to the secretary. On a scale of
100 points, the Minnesota creamery
butter was marked 96k; the Royal
Danish 81 and the Massachusetts but

kept three weeks and had lost flavor.
The "sweet rolls: were also placed at

marked 90 and below. The Judgment

Senator Harris of Tennessee died at
his home in this city late Thursday
afternoon. BY his death the cause of
bimetallislm loses a valiant defender.
He was elected to the senate in 1877.
Had he lived till March 4 next he would
have completed twenty years service in
the upper branch. He was a brilliant
and brainy member of the senate, and
had received all the honors the senate
has to bestow. He was born in 1918,
and had almost completed his 10th year.
The senate adjourned Friday out of
respect for the memory Of Senator

a public funeral in the senate chamber,
which was held Saturday.

Professor King gives the following

Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1897-10-02

1t will be seen that during tho
months Of May and September the nat
ural air conditions are about what seem
to be desired for cheddar cheese but for
June, July and August the tempera-
lures are too high
Now, since the mean temperatures Of
the air are too high, it is evident that,
in order to secure temperature Of 60
to G5 degrees for the curing room, some
method of cooling the air must be adopt
ed during the three summer months.
Several efforts have been made to use
subearth ducts as n means of cooling
the air to the desired temperature be-
fore admitting it to the curing room.
To change the air in curing room
90 by 800 by 10 feet in size once each
hour would require ventilating flue 10
inches in diameter, through which the
air moves at the rate of 2. 27 miles per
hour.
There are several methods which are
available for cooling the air until it
shall enter the curing room at the prop
or degree Of dryness, and should speak
first of the deep well method. The
mean temperature of deep we'll and
spring water in Wisconsin ranges from
40 to 90 degrees, and this means that,
If twere practicable to construct suit
able subearth duct 80 to so feet below
the surface, it would be possible to cool
the air down to 80 degrees and thus
render it dry enough for the curing
room.
Mr.. J. +. Stcinwand of Colby, Wis
has written me for advice regarding the
construction of curing room. He has u
well 20 feet in diameter, "a feet deep,
with 10 feet Of water, which he says
has temperature of 3S degrees f. We
have recommended that he adopt the
following plan: Lower ten inch gal
vanizcd iron pipe into this well to with
in a foot of the level of high water in
the well, and lead this pipe into the
curing room, which is to be made very
tight. Then connect the ventilation of
the curing room so that it exhausts into
the smokestacks from tho boiler house,
If practicable, so us to utilize the waste
heat of the engine to force strong
draft from the ventilator of the curing
room By this arrangement the cold air
from the bottom of the well will be
drawn continually into the curing room,
and the water which is condensed from
the air in the pipe will drip back into
the well. Should this not give air cold
enough, then it would be practicable to
let the tube form U, so as to utilize
the water in cooling the air. The most
serious objection to this latter plan is
the possible danger of the bend of the
pipe becoming filled with water con-
densed from air passing through the
pipe. Should this difficulty arise it
would have to be overcome by using a
pump to Withdraw the condensed water
from the bend us it became necessary.
If the air entering the curing room is
first passed over ice, its temperature
will be lowered A cold air duct could
be used in conjunction with the ice and
thus reduce the quantity needed
The amount of ice required is as fol
lows:
Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1897-10-02

These figures indicate the minimum
amount of ice which could be used, az
it assumes that the whole of it is used
in cooling the air which passes into the
curing room. OF course, there would be
some waste, and the actual amounts
needed might easily double the amounts
given, unless the rate of change of air
is made less than has been assumed
The methods of using the ice might va
~ a great deal, but l suggest the one
likely to prove most economical when
everything is considered-where cold
running water il available, either from
large spring or from flowing well,
then it would be practicable to construct
double walled air duct and allow the
water from the supply to steadily dis
charge through the jacket, thus cooling
the air which is being drawn through
it, or the cold air duct may be laid
in suitable wooden trough through
which the water is discharging

lem Of transatlantic rapid transit.
This invention took the form Of .
roller steamboat" Il was hrst con-
ceived Of some two or three years ago
by NJ. Ernest Basin, . distinguished
French engineer. Not until last Aug
ust, however. was he able to launch a
tentative vessel built according to his
specifications.
To recapitulate briefly it is a large
rectangular iron box, about 120 feet
In length, 80 feet wide and feet high.
It Is mounted on six lenticular disks
Or rollers, 80 feet In diameter, and sunk
in the water 10 feet, while the lower
floor Of the box is at an equal distance
from the level Of the water. In the
sides Of the box is the machinery which
Is Of $50 horse power. This sets in mo-
ton a screw and the rollers. In the
upper part Of the vessel. between the
disks. which pierce the box and extend
beyond It about seven feet, are COM
Portable cabins. This strange looking
vessel has displacement Of $50 tons.
NJ. Bazin predicted that his ship
would have speed Of sixty miles an
hour, or mile . minute. Now, such q
speed as that would indeed create q
revolution. The fastest express trains
on the continent could. not exceed 1t.
The fastest transatlantic steamer can
hardly do half as we'll. At this rate
Paris would be only four days distant
from New York, and It might be pos
sible to circumnavigate the world in
a little less than q month.
Well, the launch was Effected in due
time on August 10. 1896, at the Cecil
dockyards, on the Seine. A vast crowd
gathered, there were speeches and re-
joicings and general wonderment; but
It was not until last week that the
strange craft was ready for the final
test. i
