AMERICAN BUTTER ABROAD

Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has
been inquiring into the subject of for.
eign markets for American products,
and one conclusion he reached is that
the butter trade should be extended.
The English bought $G5 600, 900 worth
of butter last year The United States
supplied perhaps per cent. of it, or a
little over 100000 worth. Denmark
supplied over s2s, OOO, 900 worth. The
United States furnished the cow feed
to the Europeans who make the butter
for British consumption.
To increase the sale of American
butter in England, it is proposed that
first-class creamery butter be pun chased
in different localities of the United
States and put up in different kinds OF
pac&ages-the regulation 60 pound tub,
the Australian foot-square box, sealed
tin cans, &c. The agents of the de-
partment will ascertain whether pro-
vision is made for the proper care of
the butter while crossing the Atlantic
If not, the department will have boxes
made to protect the butter in transit
from bad odors that might come from
meat, fruit, &c.
When the butter arrives in London
it will he met at the wharf by an agent
of the department and put on the mar
ket. 1t will be ascertained what pack
age suits the British public best:
whether there is too much salt or too
little; whether there is too high color
or too low color; how our best butter
sells there in comparison with the Dan
ish butter. The whole history of the
transaction will be written up, from
the maker to the consumer. and this
process will be repeated again and
again, and instructions given to our
makers until the butter wanted in the
British market can be regularly sup
piled here by the average creamery
man.

THE CRISIS IN THE EAST.

The situation in the Balkans, SAYS the
Baltimore Ners, has now reached an acute
point, and, according to the press dis
patches, war may be declared at any mo-
ment. A few days-perhaps even few
hours-will decide; the Greeks have made
incursions into Turkish territory; the ar
my, it is believed, will likely follow, and
then will come II general uprising in Mace
donna
The concert of the Powers seems to be
but a phrase, which has taken now some
thing of an ironic touch: for there is very
clearly no such concert. If there ever
were, it has dwindlcd away. under the in
tluence of jealousy and selfish interests
to a shadow and memory only There
has been little or no concerted action, but
on the pat of some vacillation; and on
that of all uncertainty, distrust and secret
apprehension.
While it has been declared that the out
break of hostllities between Turkey and
Greece would lead to a general war, it is
not certain that the prediction will be vcri-
fed. In such situation rs exists, of
course, spark may start contla grafton.
Everything is possible. But unless some
one of the great Powers really wishes war,
there is no good reason why the conflict
should not be confined to Greece and Tur-
key; why these two should not be permit
ted to fight it out, and after the blood-let-
ting cool off and be brought again under re
straint. 1t is certain that no other coun-
try need be involved unless it wishes to-
The Ole thing clear now is that Greece
seems determined to provoke war. The
invasion of Macedonia by insurgent bands
is doubtless part of the program to incite
the Turks to open hostilities. Greece's
statement that she is unable to control
these bands is prompted probably, by

that fresh ones were supplied to replace
the Others. When a week had passed, he
turned suddenly upon Jerlyn and
thanked him for his care and the gift
of the flowers.
"Flowers, what fowers?" demanded
Jerlyn, nervously. He was a little,
nervous man, who spoke rapidly.
Didn't know you cared for 'em. l
don't. Cabbages are much more to my
taste, especially when boiled with bacon
or beef"
Bradnor did not pursue the subject,
but he brooded over it all the more. He
had no acquaintance or friend at the
Springs save Jerlyn. and he was sure
the landlord had not provided them.
He was now able to sit in an easy
chair and the doctor had promised that
within day or two he might, with the
aid of crutches. leave his room and
mingle with the guests of the hotel.
The following morning he was awake
when Bridget, the chambermaid, en-
tered his room and was surprised to see
her bearing cluster of fresh roses in
her hands.
Bridget" he said, with firmness,
"come here"
The girl. somewhat trepidant, ap-
preached his bedside, still holding the
flowers.
$50 it is you who have been filling
that vase every morning, is it?"
"Shure, sor, an so it wor," she replied,
with a courtesy.
"Yes, Bridget, now hand me that
pocketbook on the table there. That
is we'll. Now want you to tell me who
gave you the roses to bring in to me-"
"Howly mither. sor, an that will
niver be afthcr doin'. Mrs. Travis, the
Teddy. sor. thrittened me l dom know
what av sid wurred about her. sor-"
THAT will do, my girl" he said, gen.
tly, as he placed a bill in her hands.
Leave the roses here by my side and
go out of the room for little while"
"Tin dollars" cried Bridget, after
reaching the hall, AN all because wor
afther refusin' the tillin' av him who
sint them! Shure the kind gintleman's s
gone clane deft."
Bradnor seized the cluster eagerly
and let his nostris drink in their CRATE
full odor. While he did so the memory
of the heavenly voice freshened, and he
seemed to hear it sing over and over
again the hymns of the Easter day SER
vice. Then he listened for the dear
words of the flower song: Its the Last
Rose of Summer" In deep revery he
closed his eyes for several moments,
after which he opened them again. laid
the roses down with profound sigh
and then said, aloud:
"Victor Bradnor, you wretch. you are

love with human voice, and that voice

Plain Talk with Dnirymen, with
Few Hints Thrown In.


Few Hints Thrown In.
There are several ways that you can
dispose of veal. II no one else in your
community is interested in the pro-
duction you are very favorably located,
rs then you have things all your own
way, as one of the drawbacks is in'the
finding of young calves. Meat mar
kets are using veal more and more, and
1t is a poor market that cannot use u
couple of veals n week. The first year
perhaps that is all you had better at
tempt to furnish. Now when hogs or
sheep or lambs are being shipped, any
shipper will be willing to put in few
calves, and as more are being produced
in your vicinity, there will grow up
steady market. One day every week
there are shipped from here from 80 to
100 calves. Probably this one industry
alone brings in and distributes among
the farmers $4,000 year in cashynot
"store pay" and does not impoverish
the land.
If you are in the habit of getting
drunk or have any other reason for not
being able to be at home at the regular
time for milking, this article is not for
you, as you can never make a success
of it. Cows must be milked at about
such a time twice every day. If you
are in the habit of putting the calves
on at five o'clock a. M, and you get up
and put them on at four, the calves are
sleepy, and the cows don't give as
much.
If you are in the habit of putting them
on at six o'clock p. m, and don't get
home until nine o'clock, as yod wanted
to see the last heat of the hrrse race,
the cows will be uneasy, and the calves
very hungry. The cows will give moro
milk than usual, the calves getting
larger feed on an empty stomach. The
next morning you will probably find
some of the calves securing, and the
stable will smell like Fourth of July
celebration" 1t didn't take long to
bring this about. The chances are that
you will have battle to cure it. 1
know of nothing that will prove n GER
tain cure but ten drops of laudanum in
an ounce of water, and keeping the
calf on short rations for few days,
is as good as anything. Giving the
calves little fresh earth once n week
is n good thing, and they seem to like
it.-Henry S. Kelley, in Ohio Farmer.

EASTER TRIUMPH.
A Fresh Impetus Given to the Upward
Aspirations of Mankind.
WILLIAM RossER coBBE.

A Fresh Impetus Given to the Upward
Aspirations of Mankind.
The passing of the severe season is
the signal for undisguised triumph in
external nature. Sky and sun, and
1sead and crag, are lighted up with
new fire. 1t is the feast of the sun, the
yearly awakening of the myriad sleep
ing beauties-the running of the sap,
the coloring of the leaf and the flower,
the return of life and strength and myr-
lad activities.
Mans Easter is at one with that of
nature and with the Divine who is risen.
The ancient church ranks the resurrec-
tion as the first and primal basis of her
claim. For if He is not risen there is
no shadow of right in Christianity as
Divine institution. But, on the other
hand, all men are risen with Him. The
world rose very great and strong on
that Easter morning when Love came
back from the tomb with a message of
hope and proof and assurance of the
faith of the chosen few.
Ever since Easter triumphs have
multiplied, rising is the new order. Ex-
celsior is the schoolboy's motto. Full
grown ambition sees nothing in the
way of his attaining the greatest honor
or the highest station-eXcept lack of
opportunity and unfavorable circum-
stances. The primeval downward in
man comes back now only as an atay-
ism that isput of place ara out of date.
In the aspiring of an ill-judged pur-
suit of greatness or success, the bad
trait of some long dead ancestor comes
back to pull down, instead of building
up. The general tendency, however, is
upward. We believe a fresh impetus
was given to it on the first Easter when
the women waited for Him to come
back-the Light of Hope from the
sightless eyes of death. There is no
more darkness or death, but light and
life.-Collier's Weekly.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

The garden must be mellow, rich
and kept clean.
Sawdust is good mulch for all kinds
of small fruits.
If done early, spring is the best time
to set out trees and plants.
Strawberries, if we'll mulched, are
less affected by change of weather.
After the orchard is in bearing il
does not pay to continue to crop it.
Currants and gooseberries need an
annual pruning to remove useless wood.
Tobacco water is one of the best rem
edies to destroy bugs and worms on
rose bushes.
Resin and tallow in equal parts make
good covering for wounds made in
Iruning fruit trees.
Starvation and neglect are the great
causes of unfruitiulness with many un-
profitable orchards.
One advantage in using commercial
fertilizers in the garden is their free
dom from weed seeds.
Small fruit growing may not pay the
farmer away from market, but he can
grow fruit for his own use.
Only well rotted manure should be
used in the potato patch, and it should
be we'll worked in with the soil.
Keep all dead and faulty limbs cut
off of fruit trees as protection against
further decay.-St. Louis Republic.

THREW HIM TO THE GROUND.

sion. The friend, whose name was
Jerlyn, ran rapidly down the steps and
hastily leaned over the PROSTATE man,
while the ladies looked anXiously on
from the piazza. Other guests were
quickly attracted to the spot.
MY God!" cried Jerlyn, looking
upward towards the ladies, after he had
touched the forehead and the wrist of
Bradnor, II am afraid the dear old fell
low is dreadfully hurt"
A physician was hastily summoned,
but meantime the injured man had been
tenderly borne by strong arms to his
bed chamber. He recovered conscious
ness after some moments and when n
careful examination had been made the
medical man declared that no bones
were broken, but that badly-spruned
ankle would confine Bradnor to his bed
for many days.
The young. stalwart fellow, with his
six feet of height and broad shoulders,
chafed under the latter sentence. He
did not feel i'll, although the pain was
intense in his ankle. But the doctor
was obduratc, declaring that most seri-
GUS results would be likely to follow
any attempt upon his part to arise from
his bed for week, at least.
With a groan the man turned his
face away and presently fell asleep,
from the effects of an opiate that had
been administered in his arm.
The following morning he dozed fit
fully, the effects of the drug not having
worn away. but with the afternoon his
intelligence returned to him. His eyes
ranging over the room he saw upon his
dressing case a great cluster of red
roses. and for moment he wondered
who had given them to him; but the
thought was an evanescent one. Per-
haps he thought it was an act OF Jer-
lyn's. who had spent the greater part
of the day in his room.
Day after day. however, he observed
