As 10 school Expenditures.

The Randolph Center correspondent
two weeks ago referred to the enquiry
made in town meeting as to expenses in
school district No. 2 as being "dirty at
tack" AS am the person who made the
enquiry II Is natural to suppose that the
correspondent referred to me So / wish
to say that the "dirty attack" consisted
simply in my reading the report OF ex-
penses in district No. and asking for an
explanation, which has not yet been Civ
en-. One OF the school directors attempted
to reply, but seemed to be all at sea as to
y hat TO say and contented himself with
reading the report and stating that the
item of $500 SO was for moving the old
schoolhouse from out of barn yard and
putting Ii in repair My bomb seemed to
have exploded at somebody's feet. Moth
ing was said by me about the old school
house and my enquiry about the item OF
S233. so as paid to normal school supervis-
ors served to draw out the fact that
ano, her s233 80 is to be paid April list,
making S467 in one year from that district
to normal school supervisors, but for ex-
actly " hat services no one was informed.
II is my opinion that the voters OF this
town would like to know why 1857 Is paid
in one year by district No. to the nor
NAL school supervisors. Perhaps 1t is all
right. We simply ask for information,
although the late lister may call IL "a
dirty attack"
The current expenses of district No. 2,
aside from the item OF s999.59, are S6i3 05.
The superintendent tells us that this
school is supposed to furnish better ad-
vantages than other schools at no extra
cost, but the report shows that in 1895 the
cost was only S497.75, or S145.30 less than
last year. and it is only three or four years
ago that S255 was expended on this same
for repairs.
To let the matter down easily the boss
comes out and says that district No. has
a grand list nearly twice as large as any
other district under the town system and
that, too, when he knew or ought to
know, (he being one of the listers, though |
sat down upon at to Tn meetingl that the
list in district No. is 81 O3749 while In |

An old story tells of little girl who
when asked for definition of appetite
said, "Well. when you're eatin, you re
'appy, and when you're through you re
tight, and that's appetite. Now, this
girl was not an etymologist, but she
was philosopher and a good one, too,
which is rare. Anybody who possesses
soul and body is happy after large
meal, when he experiences that feel
ing of blessed completeness, of repletion.
| have seen advertisements-it seems
incredible, but it is true-of medicines
warranted TO remove the feeling of full
ness after meals. Good heavens, what
do we eat for? Do we masticate and
swallow for the sake of feeling that
we're hollow mockeries? On the con-
trary, we eat and are filled, we feel that
we are filled, and we are happy. And
to abolish this bliss by drugs-mon-
strousl | myself eat well and largely
most things that come in my way for
recreation and digestion.
| could eat more, but | smoke. AS l
told my mother law, / DO not dare to
give up smoking, because stopping off
tobacco always increases the appetite,
and if my appetite should increase what
would become Of my wife and eight
large children between the ages of
and 9? For myself I'm vegetarian
and also carnivorous. I'm not bigot
Not eat meat? What are our canine
teeth for? 1t is an insult to our anatomy
to say we shouldn't eat flesh. The Veg
etarian company, limited, would pull
half our teeth and have us ruminate on
wad of grass like COW. Nebuchad-
neZzar tried that for seven years, and
we know he was stark, staring grazing
mad when he did it.
Then, too, I'm not too finical. Sup

Dairy and Creamery.

The good butter maker every little
while tests the buttermilk to ascertain
whether he is getting all the fat out of
it.
Milk pals are now made with a close
fitting cover having a fine wire strainer
in the top. These are excellent. The
milk passes freely through the wire
cloth, while the hairs and much of the
filth are caught and held. This strain
ing, however, is not sufficient The
milk needs to be aerated and strained
again through cloth before it is ready
to be put away, unless you have sepa
rator on the farm.
Gathered cream is best churned gen
orally at temperature from 90 to 50,
while separated cream may be churned
at AZ. The lower the temperature at
which cream may be churned, other
things being equal, the more butter
will be produced
It is difficult sometimes to get mature
COWS TO form the winter milking habit,
but heifers can be bred the first time at
just the right period to bring them into
milk in the fall Thus with them the
winter dairying habit will be started,
and they will be apt to continue in it if
they are managed right.
A place to store summer butter will
do well at temperature not above 5S

is much harder on butter than dry heat
