THE SCRUB DAIRYMAN.
He Makes . Poor Quality Of Butter
and Consequently II an ALL

Doubtless the storekeeper is in a
place to judge the characteristics of
scrub dairyman when the latter
brings in his country butter. In order

haitian population, 5000, plus 1000
students for three-fourths of the year),
six grocery firms were interviewed.
Country butter amounted to about Is
per cent. of the total sales. This was
usually divided into four grades. The
average results show 33 per cent. of the
amount received in grade No. 1 (the
best grade), % per cent. in grade No.
2, II per cent. in grade No. 3, and ~
per cent. in grade No. 4. On an aver
age 20 per cent. of the amount of coun-
try butter received was unfit for local
sale aud had to be relegated to the
renovating factories. One of these
firms stated that with a little more
reading and studying on the part of the
farmers there is no reason why so per
cent. of the butter that comes under
grades No. 3 and No. should not come
under grades No. 1 and No. 2. This

play on a railroad car en- route.
Manager Kallman and Mr.. Cum

some changes in the original cast of
the company and it was necessary to
make some contracts by mail This
proved rather an unsatisfactory meth
cd. Although most of the members
were in Chicago on time, there was
some hitch in the start for Salt Lake
City. Both Manager Ka1lman and Mr.
Cummings were out here. The latter
became anxious, and boarded a train
for the east. He carried with him the
parts for ga Gilded Fool" the first
play to be presented, and arriving in
Chicago met eleven members of the
company, distributed the roles, Sc
cured a special car and left for Salt
Lake at four o'clock Tuesday after
noon over the Burlington. The days
en- route were devoted to study and
rehearsals, and by the time the COM
pany reached here every member was

How Frog n Meat beteriorates.

age for long periods do not undergo
organic changes in the ordinary sense,
that is, they do not putrefy, soften, or
smell bad, but they certainly do deter
iorate in some tangible way. After a
certain time frozen meat loses life
principle essential to its nourishing
quality. Such meat lacks flavor; it is
not well digested Or assimilated. It's
savorless condition cannot be re-
NEEDED or successfully disguised by
the uses of sauces and condiments.
This is most noticeable in fish which
has been kept frozen for any length
of time, and is due to the fact that
the prolonged application of cold pro-
duces a chemical change in the natur-
al ptomaines which are peculiar to
each animal and give meat its indi-
vidual flavor. In fish and fish oils this
flavor is very easily decomposed also
by the air and light of the sun and
particularly so if the fish, after being
caught, is allowed to slowly die in the
air and light. Therefore the law in
| Germany and France compels fisher
men to kill the fish as soon as caught
| by blow on the nape of the neck OF
| by cutting the throat. The 'fishy'
! taste of cod liver oil is mainly due tc
the decomposing action of sunlight.
