PROCESS BUTTER TALK
Representative Tawney COnEratu-
latcs Dairymen on Their
Victory.

Washington, April 1S-'The most i'm
portant changes made by the senate in
the bill imposing a tax of 10 cents pound
butter is the one in relation to the manu-
facture and sale of process renovated or
adulterated butter,' said Representative
Tawney. He continued
The manufacture and sale of renovated
butter is becoming quite an important indus
try, and from an investigation by
the department of agriculture there is
evidently much reason for the regula-
ton of its manufacture as there is for oleo-
margarin. 1t appears that renovated butter
is not only made by mixing, reworkng or re-
churning milk or cream, but also that acids,
alkali and other chemicals are introduced for
the purpose of deodorizing and removing ran
cidity. There was provision in relation to
this kind of butter in the mouse bill, but it
was passed without careful consideration.
After the house passed the bill it was dis
covered that the amendment relating to
renovated butter was crudely drawn, and
would have been totally imperative.
In view of this fact, and also in view OF
the necessity for some remedial legislation
on this subject, the dairymen and the pro-
cess and renovated butter people practically
agreed upon, further amendments, which the
senate adopted Since then it has been dis.
covered that I'm. the definition of renovated
butter and in the requirements governing the
manufacture of such butter, together with the
| taxes imposed, the legitimate business carried
on by grocerymen and others, in small way
of reworking or Returning or in any man

ner improving butterNwhich they purchase for
sale would be prohibited. Hence the commit
tee on agriculture of the house now propose
to make change in the senate amendment
defining renovated butter, and also reduce the
tax on the manufacture of renovated butter
from $500 to practically nominal tax, re-
tanning the tax of one-fourth of cent a
pound. So
and sale of adulterated or renovated butter
are practically the same as are the provi-
sons regulating the manufacture and sale Of
oleo. Both are to be under the supervision
of the internal revenue department of the
government. On adulterated butter, which is
distinguished in this amendment from pro-
cess butter, there is to be assessed a tax of
10 cents a pound, to be paid by the manu-
facturer, while, as have said, upon process
or renovated butter, the tax is only one
fourth of cent pound. All of the other
amendments, and there were only a few
adopted by the senate, will be concurred in
by the house. AS soon as the Cuban bill is
out of the way, the anti-o1eomargarin bill,
with all amendments, will be brought up iii
the house and sent to conference. The con-
ferees will have no difficulty in reaching an
agreement at least no difficulty is anticipated
as the friends of the measure both in the
| house and senate, have practically agreed
| upon the notifications to the senate amend
ments to which have referred. The confer
ence report will be adopted in both houses
and the bill will then become a law. This has
been a desperate fight and the farmers of the
country, especially the dairymen, are to be
congratulated upon the victory they have won

POULTRY POINTERS.

A close, unventilated house is en-
phatically a foul house.
Ground or crushed bone is q good
form in which to give lime.
The nests should be arranged so that
the fowls can walk in on them.
Bran is better feed for fowls than
corn because it contains more nitrogen.
An excellent feed for young chicks is
cracked or coarsely ground wheat for
the first week.
A cock that fights and picks his
mates every time they are fed is not
good breeder, and few Of bis hens
eggs will ever hatch.
Cane or sorghum seed can be fed to
fowls to good advantage. 1t stimu-
lates egg production and in many ways
is good to use for variety.
For a good breeder select rooster
with plump, full breast, broad across
the back, wide between the legs and
that crows often, loud and long.
1t is a good plan to mate up the
fowls early, for occasionally one of the
hens will want to sit during the win
ter, and it will be best to have the eggs
ready.

A sudden change came over the adj

what over six years ago, and for some
time there were turmoil and trouble all
over the state. The Board Of Fish
and Game Commissioners had been a
mere political machine for many years,
the only apparent object Of 1t being
the reward of political workers. The
lawbooks Of New Jersey were crowd
ed with enactments on fish and game,
but about the only law that was put
into successful and continuous opera
ton was the statute providing for the
compensation and expenses of ward
ems The law gave the wardells So a
day compensation, but limited the to
tai to $50 for any one year, but moth
ing was said about expenses, except
ing that these were to be paid. The
result was that wardens drew their
$50 annual salary and then were paid
thousand dollars or more Tor ex-
peDses, the latter consisting of hiring
assistants, etc. The state treasury
was open to the wardens, and the
books in the state comptroller's office
show that some of the wardens drew
as much as $1,000 year.

She was sweet looking girl, with as
fair pink and white complexion as

with one of her own sex on a Staten
Island ferryboat, while was seated
so near that l could not help hearing.
Several times my truant eyes deserted
my paper and stole glance at the
face that was so attractive.
''It was the luckiest thing that ever
happened to me-" she said to her COM
panion, when l went into that Fifth
avenue store just to buy comb. How
little l thought that would be work
ing there at greater wages than / had

ger. We may know all about these
things some time in the future, but
that does not help us in New Jersey in
this year 1902.
Fish and a great many other anil
mails frequently change their habits,
and this has given rise to disputes as
to what these habits really are. have
read with some interest recent discus
boards nuts for the winter or whether
he depends on his more industrious
cousin, the red squirrel. The question
has been answered both ways any
number of times, and that by men
who were positive that they were
right, for what they knew they had
learned from their own observation.
believe that the gray squirrel very
quickly gets out of the habit of hoard
ing nuts when he finds that he can de-
pend on robbing the red squirrel. Then
a year comes when the red squirrels
die off or leave the country, and the
result is that the gray squirrel starves,
and then people wonder what has be-
come of the gray squirrels. | know
that gray squirrels hoard nuts, for
have seen them do so, and have seen
them go to their hoard in winter. But
in Central park in New York the SOUR
rels must be supplied with food during
the winter months, for they have long
since learned to depend on man to
keep up the supply of their food. Re
move those gray squirrels into the will
derness, and they would quickly go
back to the ways of their ancestors
and put by winters supply of food.
many matters must be considered
when we undertake to interfere with
the admirable balance nature has es-
tablished in the animal kingdom, when
we undertake to place animals where
nature did not place them. Remove
a white perch from the brackish water
in which he had his home to some
landlocked water, and he will spend
the rest of his existence in trying to
find a way out to get back to brackisn
water. Take a white bass a few
months old and place it in the same
water. and he will never worry about
brackish water, but will promptly set
tie down and multiply. But these in
cidents are only a few of many hun
dreds. We know these, but we do not
know the hundreds of others Under
these circumstances we use what
knowledge we have, and then the rest
is experiment. We know that certain
fish will not thrive in certain waters.
and these facts guide US in our work
of stocking. A pond may be stocked.
for example, with pike perch, and the
following year there may be thousands
of them and a few years after none at
all. In another pond the introduced
pike perch may apparently wholly dis
appear, only to show up some years
later in large numbers. What the
cause of all this is we do not know
We do the best we can, and l do not
think that we have any reason to com
plain that our efforts have not beer
