SUSPENDED COMRADES.

Hagerty.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Where is the
comrade who has not been grieved beyond ex-
preston at the announcement that such and
such member has been suspended for nom
payment of dues? If it were in one Post alone
1T would not be so bad. but when We get the
general reports and learn that thousands of our
old comrades all over the Nation are in the
same category it makes it doubly affecting and
humiliating. Many of these brave men who
faced the cannon's mouth and the bayonet's
thrust are now to be relegated to the rear for
the lack of few paltry dollars. Many of
them would pay only too freely if they were
able, while some there may be who care but
little for the comradeship in the Post-room.
For such we have nothing but wonder at their
strange alienation of feeling for the men who
stood by them in the fiery ordeal, but for poor
comrade we have the most profound sympathy.
If 1t were in our power We would soon square
the books, and say: Comrades, take your posi-
tioDs as of old, and let us march merrily along
In the walks of life. Now word to officers
and comrades more fortunate in life Cannot
there be something done to arrest this tide of
disintegration in the ranks of the GAR?
Stragglers in the army always had disastrous
,nhuence on the men in line. So it will be
now, and ii will continue to be worse and worse
till the end. Better in some way commute
with good comrade, and wait till more pros
porous times In the country and for himself,
than to cut them off by the thousand and go
along with thinned ranks to the last camping
ground of life. Cannot q good comrade be
given time on all or part of his dues? The
Post is none the poorer, except the small per
capita that goes to National Headquarters
Certainly. the GAR would feel much the
stronger and more honored with the presence
of thousands of old heroes by their side than
20 see them cast out and falling by the wayside
as if they had never been mustered.
Ii the officers were to make very spirited ap-
peals 10 the comrades. visiting the Poets and
speaking to them privately, would it not be
possible to awaken in their breasts the old fires
of comradeship, which would cause them to
make herculean efforts to retain their position !?
Why. believe. if even q poor Chaplain were to
move about among the men he could persuade
many OF them to come back have done that
already, and many poor comrade is longing
TO get back in an honorable manner. but dis
cains to come back as beggar.
1T occurs TO me that, as time passes more at
sention will have to be given to looking after
the interests of the Posts and men individually.
Az age comes on men become less elastic in
step as well as action, and need someone to
stimulate them occasionally. Who can do that
like the officers? Who should do it as cheer
fully as they? Let this matter be talked over
before the next Encampment at Buffalo and
let us be then prepared to act inteligently and
effectively. want TO do my full duty in this
line, as well as in all Others $50 do all of us. -

BUTTER FOR ENGLISH MARKETS
Is the Latest Study Undertaken by Farmer
Wilson.

Washington, April 14-Secretary OF
Agriculture Wilson has concluded that
the American butter trade should be ex-
tended. In an interview today, he says
the United States last year made more
good butter than he home demand re-
quired.
Shipments abroad" he said, will be
made in the future, and it is necessary
to ascertain for our people what the
worlds market wants, and when we
speak OF the worlds market. we mean
the English market. The English bought
So, 900, coo worth of butter last year: the
United States supplied perhaps 1 per
cent of it, or little over 5000, 600 worth
Denmark supplied over SOS, 000, 600 worth.
The United States furnishes the cow
feed to the Europeans, who make the
butter for British consumption. To this
end il is proposed that information ne
obtained for the American butter max
ers. by purchasing first-class creamery
butter in different localities OF the Unit
Ell States, and having the butter put in
different kinds Of packages-the regIila-
square box, in tin cans, etc. The agents
Of the department will see to the trans
fer from the refrigerator cars 10 tce re-
fIigerator steamboats, il New York, and
ascertain whether provision is made
there for the proper care of the butter
While crossing the Atlantic. II not, the
department Of agriculture will have
boxes made to protect the butter III
transit from bad odors that might come
from meat, fruit, etc.
when the butter arrives in London.
Il will be met at the wharf by an agent
of the department and put on the n ar
kat 1t will be ascertained what pack
ages 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 Dar!s I
butter. The whole history Of the trans
action will be written up. from the max
er to the consumer, and this process will
be repeated again and again and in
structions given TO our makers until the
butter wanted in the British market can
be regularly supplied here 5y :he aver
