MAMMOTH PRODUCTION.
The oakdsle company is surely the
largest OF its character in the city and
has l65 people on the pay roll that
amounts to $500 weekly. The annual out
put is about s0oo,o0o pounds.
The combined product OF the FIVE other
concerns will approximate 100000
pounds making grand total OF 1s.Oo0. 900
pounds, or an average OF $1,000 pounds
twenty tons a day.
The debarring clause In the congress
sional act is that relating 10 coloring.
The oleo manufacturer can turn out his
product as economically as before, al
though IL will have the whiteness OF the
real product.
In more than one case the cream but

prepared as carefully as the butterine
which is skilfully and carefully prepar-
ed combination OF cream, oleo and the
purest of leaf lard
The coloring is done with a bean called
the anotta boiled In cottonseed oil and
only about one once of that liquid is re-
quired TO make attractive for the table

prices the local manufacturers will

oravaisk. Polish landed magnate, has
annesIed to Emperor william not TO visit
posep during the army msnenyers 10 be
held in September, as his majesty had
MANNED To do. The chamberlain fears that
some Polish fanatic might attempt to harm
the emperor.
Racial feeling is at fever heat and several
Journals take the view that 1t would be
npwise for the emperor TO expose himself
unnecessarily. The Post conservative says
II IS Informed that Il would greatly re- Ahse
those responsible for his maJesty's safety
IN learn that he had given up the trip.
Prominent Germans residing in Posen are
glad the Polish officials and nobility have
determined not to attend the festivities,
as thereby the chances Of unpleasant incl
dents arising are less imminent II is
scarcely likely that Emperor William will
act on the chamberlain's suggestion, be.
cause his majesty never permits himself to
change his plans on account Of the timidity
Of his advisers. he gocs anywhere he
thinks duty calls him, and besides II Is hi,
purpose TO declare the governments Polish
policy while In Polish territory, and hi'
giving up Of personal supervision Of this
