How Process Butter Is Made.

Here is description of process but
ter: This butter is made from old,
rancid and useless dairy butter, pur-
chased from the country storekeepers
in the States farther West and shipped
in old barrels, tobacco pals, shoe boxes,
etc.. which appetizing mess is put
through a process of boiling and reno
waiting to remove the nauseating odors,
and through other treatments which
have brought 1t under the ban of the
pure-food laws of several States. after

make is not attractive when their becom-

ion, unless it be the enormous hoops of

mental forms of it are naturally not its

Tom Reed a Live Wire.

The wisdom of the alleged decision Of
the Republican national committee not
to have Tom Reed make any speeches
during the campaign because Of his re-
cent overindulgeuces in sarcasm at the
expense of the administration is open
to question. There Is no surety that
Tom has yet been as sarcastic as he
can be, and making him any madden
than he is is not a good way to stop
him. philadelphia Times.

Fodder Crons.

At the experiment station at Still
water, Okla, they tested several differ
ent fodder crops to find the yield per
acre, and in the winter ascertained the
dry matter and the amount digestible
in each one. They found the digestible
dry matter in corn per acre was 5000
pounds, Kaffir corn GIG pounds, black
rice corn 7,01S pounds, Milo maize TO-
016 pounds, small sorghum II ,102
pounds, large sorghum 1859 pounds.
The sorghum and Milo maize gave high
er yields than the corn and Kaffir, but
they were very low in protein or
growth-making material, and therefore
not so valuable for feeding, especially
for growing animals.

Price of MILK in New YORK.

Milk sells in New York City all the
way from 31a to Is cents per quart.
Some restaurants buy large quantities
at a low figure and then sell by the
glass or bowl at II cents or more. Bak-
ers use skimmilk largely, selling the
cream for about as much as they paid
for the whole milk. 1t is fair to say
that the milk for which the farmer re
ceives the present low figure sells on
the average for little over cents per
quart. Rural New Yorker.

apparatus. The four rubber cups are
attached to the teats of the cow, and
the air is exhausted from the interior
of the can. This produces vacuum
and causes the rubber cups to take hold
on the teats. The interior arrangement
of the cup expands the teat and does
not shut off the flow of milk. AS the
vacuum increases inside the can it
starts the flow of milk, and a steady
stream is maintained from each teat
until the supply is exhausted. An in
dicating gauge is attached to the cover
to show the amount of air exhausted

ject as it has other great ques-
tons of internal improvement.

The world has never known a
more dramatic situation than that
presented by the foreign COM
munity within the walls of Pek-
ing while cut off from communi-
cation with their countrymen.
During these long, doubtful
weeks, the most interesting fig
ure in this international tragedy
was Sir Robert Hart, who for
more than twenty-five years has
been as far, as a European might,
the statesman guiding the affairs
of the, Chinese Empire. Those
familiar in any degree with east
ern conditions hoped, after the
relief of Picking, that Sir Robert
would break his long rule of
silence and give to the world his
story of the events which led to
the closing of the gates of the
British Legation, and his views
as to the policies which should
prevail in the settlement of the
difficult questions which had
arisen. On the 18th of October,
the following cable-message from
Sir Roberts London representa-
tive to the Editor of The Co.'S
mopolitan was received : "Sir
Robert Hart has sent for Novem-
Der number Fortnightly, Lon
don, and Cosmopolitan, New
York, an important article on
seige of Picking, about fifteen
thousand words, which 1 will
post you tomorrow"
The MS. arrived in time to be
included in the December issue.
1t will be read with the deepest
interest, both by statesmen and
the general public. The Cos
mopolit@n has been highly hon
ored by Sir Robert Hart in his
selection of the American maya
zine through which this valuable
contribution to the history of the
world is given publicity.

Anyone keeping pace with tn.

Anyone keeping pace with the
progress of the campaigns which
closed on the night of Nov. 9Th
could not fail to notice the mark
ed difference in the management
of the National Democratic cam
paign and the State Democratic
campaign. The one was made
principally by the aid of news
papers, printed matter and what
is called Literature" and the
other by speakers and speakers.
In the National campaign there
was noteworthy absence of
speeches from men in public
life. Mr.. Bryan did practically
all the talking for his party. He
was helped by few, but a limit
ed few. The discussions in the
canvass we're carried on mostly
in the newspapers, by editorial
writer's and by correspondents.
In the state it was different.
The party papers we're not spec
tally called to any great extent
to aid and support of the com
mittee. We do not recall a cam
paign where SO little considera-
ton was paid to the party press
of the state. But every paper
did its duty faithfully and dis
cussed the issues intelligently
and fair. The committee seems
to have relied mostly CD it's
speakers.
Before another campaign the
speeches made in 1900 will have
passed out of memory-new is
sues will arise, new policies will
be proposed for adoption and it
will be left for the newspapers
TO keep them before the public.
What encouragement has been
given them to do so
Every year there is an extern
sion of our population and an in
creasing difficulty of reaching a
large proportion of the voters by
speeches. How then are they 10
be educated politically save by
the newspapers, printed matter
and literature.
Suppose every Democratic
paper in the state should close
its Office until after the state con-
vention in 1902 what will be the
condition of the party in the
state and what will be the con
fusion in the convention when it
meets. The words of the tongue
pass out of memory, those in
type live after the speakers are
gathered to their fathers.
