Process Butter. 49,.
A paper on process, or renovated, butter,
by Prof Charles A. Champion, chief chem
list Of the internal revenue service, inter-
ested the division of chemistry.
BY the act of May 8 of this year process
butter is made subject to federal control.
How butter is renovated was described
briefly as follows: The raw material, or
Stock" as it is termed, consists of butter
which is not salable for direct consump,
ton, either because 1t has deteriorated
through rancidity, mold or other causes, or
because it was produced by careless or ig-
norant makers, who were unable to give II
an attractive appearance or flavor. Inc

cruiting ground for most OF the material;
In the earlier days Of the industry the
stock obtainable for renovatng purposes
was but q shade better than the soap-fat
grade. but competition has advanced the
price. and the increased demand q i mas Sc

deteriorated from its original condition

The character of the renovated product
has correspondingly improved. especially
in its keeping qualities. The best grades
approximate the lower grade Of creamery

by subsequent granulation in ice water.

have been accused Of using chemical
agents at this stage of the procedure, but
they claim that such treatment has not
been found successful, doubtless from the
tendency toward saponification, and that

Afternoon Session. ,..,.
sion today before the social and economic
science section was a problem In civil ad-
by William E. Curtis, Of this
city. Mr.. Curtis read from an interesting
description of the regeneration by the Aus
TRANS of Bosnia, a former province of ,Tur-s
key, which was placed under their protec-
ton by the powers after the Turko-Rus-
sian war in 1873. At that time Bosnia was
one Of the most unhappy and hopeless
l~,,k tfcv all
Turkish domination it has become one or
the most peaceful and prosperous provinces
in Europe. Nowhere else in all the con-
tinent has there been SO rapid an increase
in population and wealth or SO prontaoie
development Of natural resources.
Under the Turks murder was not consid-
cred a crime and 1t is estimated that from
ten to fifteen thousand people were Killed
by the soldiers and by each other
During the last ten years, out OF popuia-
ton OF nearly two millions, the homicides
have averaged only six a year, and In 19OO
were only two.
In Turkish times robbery was as com
mon as lying, and farmers hid their cabins
where they could not be seen from the
highways for fear Of raids from bandits
and marauding soldiers There has been
no case of robbery in Bosnia since 1885,
and in 1900 but one case Of burglary. Other
crimes are equally rare.
The population Of Bosnia Is about 2.OOO.-
900, one-third Moslems, one-thtrd members
Of the orthodox Greek Church One-nltn TO
man Catholics and the remainder Protest
ants and Jews. The population has dou-
bled in twenty years and Is increasing at
the rate of 10 per cent year. The people
are peaceful, contented and prosperous.
The cities are filled with new and hand
some houses. Factories are being erected
to utilize the water power and consume
the raw material produced in the country.
Training schools and other institutions
have been established to qualify the peo-
pie to make the most intelligent use of
their opportunities. Members Of the diff
ferent religions mingle on amicable terms
and show mutual respect and liberation.
Taxes are low and are honestly collected
and disbursed; the courts are wisely and
justly administered. and the people have
learned for the first time to appreciate
just and liberal government.
Mr.. Curtis suggested that there was
much in the Austrian experiment In Bosnia
that might profltably be Initiated by the
United States in the Philippines.
