All wooden vessels that hold butter
should be carefully washed in brine
and all parchment paper used around
butter should be soaked in brine. Com
mission men claim that much OF the
mouldy butter in the market is due
to the fact that tubs and pals are not
soaked enough before being used and
that parchment paper is sometimes not
soaked at all. 1t is the little things
that count immensely in the butter
market.
Friends OF honest butter regret that
the Grout bill failed to pass at the
session Of congress Just closed. Every
obstacle was put In the way Of its
consideration by its opponents, who
boasted that II II got through the house
at all 1t would be so late that it could
not pass the senate. They delayed its
consideration in committee by every
known trick. The friends of the bill
found 1t impossible to get 1t acted on,
but did get through motion to make
1t a special order for the third day Vt
the next session Of congress. The
butter men have made a good fight,
and 1t is probable that this bill, or
some modification OF 1t. will ultimate
ly be passed.
Every farmer that makes butter for
market should arrange to have a sup
ply OF ice for use each summer. There
are few farms in the north where a
supply Of ice is not obtainable. 1t will
cost little to construct a house that
will hold ice and keep 1t well. Saw
dust is quite plentiful and may be
used for more than one year. This
supply of ice will prove financially
valuable, as 1t will enable the maker
of the butter to reduce the cream to a
temperature at churning time where II
will make a butter OF good grain.
After the butter is made 1t can be kept
perfect till sold. Where II is de-
sired to build up a private trade ice
will prove very great help.

BRITISH IMPERIA1 FEDERATION.
Opinion of Sir Michael Hicks-Beach-
ResMIts of the War.

London, April 19.-The chancellor of
the, exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, responding to the toast to the
government at the Primrose day ban
quet at Bristol, said he could not tell
when general election would be held
and he was quite certain that nobody
else knew, but if the war did not eX-
tend beyond the natural life of parlla-
ment the government would not appeal
to the constituencies until 1t was in a
position to know the policy which it
would recommend.
Lord Beaconsfeld" continued the
speaker, was one of the first to appre-
ciate the advantages of empire I'M
perial federation is delightful dream,
and it may become more so, but we
must not attempt to force the pace. The
colonies, however, have given an earn
est of a future time when there may
be some form of common organization
for themselves and the motherland,
which might control imperial policy and
give the colonies an adequate share in
the responsibilities and defense Of the
empire.
GAS to what the results of the war
will be to South Africa none can say,
but the war bids fair to have the great
est results for the empire and the world.
Let Great Britain follow Lord Beacons-
fields example and see to it that when
the war is over, it shall never, If we can
help 1t, occur again"

GREAT Ma RATHON RACE.
Boston Event Won by Canadians
Americans Utterly Routed.

Boston, April 19.-Two Canadian
runners went over the B. A. A. Mara
thon race course from Ashland, Mass,
to the club house on Exeter street in
record time to-day in the fourth an
nual run of the association. These
men were John Caffrey Of st. Patrick S
A. c. and William Sherring of the Y
M. c. A., both of Hamilton, Ont, Caff-
rey leading Sherring by about half a
mile. Caffrey lowered the record by
over two minutes for the twenty-five
miles while Shering reduced the record
made by Mcdonald in 1898 by over half
minute. The winners time was
2:39:44 "a; Sherring's, 2:41:31 3-5.
The performances of the two men
were phenomenal, and to complete the
utter route of the Americans another
Canadian F. Hughson, Y. M. c. A. of
Hamilton, Ont, finished third man, his
time being 2:49:08. Two other Cana
dams competed, one of whom, Carroll,
finished eleventh, while the other, Ban
ard, quit after running finely for ten
miles. John B. Mcguire, Cambridge
port gymnasium, was the first Amer
ican to cross the tape, finishing in
fourth place, and was but short way
behind Hughson. The course was in
very fair condition, except near the
starting point. where it was muddy.
From the Newtons to Boston the
roads We're in fine shape and the wind
favored the runners.

SUES HUSBAND FoR $115,0oo.


Bridgeport, Conn, April 19.-Mrs. Eli
c. Smith to-day instituted suit against
her husband for damages in the sum
of $4,000, alleging that he has so
managed portions of her estate as to
cause her to lose it's control. Property
of the defendant valued at $125,000
was attached as security. Mrs. Smith
inherited in 1890 and In 1896 from her
parents an estate valued at $161 900. A
few years ago she bought a piece of
property which was incumbered with
mortgage. She let the mortgage
stand, her husband signing the note as
co-mortgagor Mrs Smith alleges that
her husband refused to permit her to
pay off the debt and caused the mort
gagee to foreclose, and that he then
paid the amount and secured a clear
title to the property. Mrs Smith claims
that the title should be In her name, as
her husband used a portion of her es-
tate in removing the debt. Mrs. Smith
Is represented by Attorney Susan G.
O'Neill of Waterbury. Her loss of
confidence in her husband has caused
her to distrust men so strongly that
she would not hire q male lawyer. Both

LONDON REVIEW or sIruAT1oN.
Nothing Definite to Indicate That
Weyener Hns Been Delivered.

London, April 20, Ais a. MA deluge
of rain, lasting ten days, has brought
operations in the southeastern part of
the Free State almost to a standstill.
The creeks have become roaring rivers
and the roads are streams of mud.
A singular message, dated Bloemfon-
tein, April 10, 1O:55 a. M, and beginning
''Via Press Censor, Bloemfontein," re-
ports an exchange Of shots in the di-
rection of De Vets Dorp, where the
Beers are said to be concentrating "af-
ter their withdrawal from Wepener."
There is nothing else to indicate that
the investment of Wepener has been
abandoned by the Beers. Notwith-
standing the rain, however, the British
have made some progress, as De VETS
Dorp has been occupied by them, prob
ably by the advance of General Run
dies division. De Vets Dorp is about
twenty-four miles from Wepener.
An obscure message from Aliwal
North dated April 19 says that General
Brabant has arrived there; but whether
he returned alone or with his troops is
not clear Boer reports from Aliwal
North aver that from 5000 to 10000
Beers are at Wepener.
Extended reports of the Boemfontein
concert for the benefit of the widows
and orphans have been cabled. No less
than seven separate accounts are pub
1ished in London to-day. The concert,
the weather and the bare statement
that Lord Roberts is ready to move are
about the only things that the censor
has allowed to pass; and the correspond
ent who announces that Lord Roberts
is ready to move does not specify the
direction in which he is going.
General Hunter, from Natal, COM
manding the newly formed division, ar
rived at Bloemfontein yesterday (Thurs-
day. and left Immediately after confer
ring with Lord Roberts To what point
he proceeded is not mentioned; but it is
understood that he will operate west of
Bloemfontein.

Plenty of water Everywhere.

Bloemfontein, April 19.-During the
last ten days there has been constant
rains and an enormous quantity of wa
ter has fallen. These conditions, al
though extremely uncomfortable so far
as the soldiers are concerned, have
had their advantages, for every dam
in the country round about is filled, and
the question of water which hitherto,
during the march of the army, has
been one of great difficulty, is now
practically solved. The troops will be
able to move in any direction with a
certainty of finding a sufficiency of
water. The whole regular and volun-
teer drafts have arrived, and the High
land brigade is now at its full strength.
Lady Roberts and her daughters have
