Too wide a Difaeren ce.

The range of difference in prices il
the market centers between the best
and worst grades Of cattle offered, has
somtimes been as high as $3.50 per hun
dred. This is entirely too much. The
only explanation that can be made of
this unprecedented wide range is that
the receipts of undesira Bile cattle have
been excessive. High prices have
tempted owners of half7fat and thin
stuff to ship. AS q rule, none but full,
fat, ripe cattle should be sent to mar

Cause Of MOttled Butter.

Notified butter is sometimes
caused by the salt not being well
worked into the butter. What are
known as white specks may be due
to setting milk in shallow pans. the
cream drying on the top and becom-
ing hard. Another cause may be the
cream standing too long, curd being
formed in the milk, which becomes
mixed with the butter. This hap
pens mostly when the milk is in deep
pans, and straining is the best
methodof preventing the difficulty in
both cases. 3. 9, 8 .,i d u. s,.i

BEWARE OF THE PHAGOCYTE.
Creature That Frequents the
Human Body. -aS

"The hope Of mankind" says
Metschnikow, depends upon the
proper restriction of the phagoctytc."
Very few nonprnfcssional men
know what n phagUcyte is. and even
numerous physicians try To get along
without having made its acquaintance,
while most medical handbooks ignore
the thing. and the few dictionaries
mentioning il describe il wrongly.
Here Is Prof. Metschnikow's detini-
ton "Phagocytes constitute the po-
lice Of the human body. AS q big
city cannot get along without officers
of the law to keep crime and vice I'M

phere pure and wholesome, so health
is impossible unless the phagocytcs
exercise their proper functions in the

"PhnSO means eat. devOur, absorb;
cyte is the Greek for cell. The phago-
cytc, then, is an absorbing or eating
cell; one might term it the scavengcr
of the human body. So much science
recognized long ago; also that its
main food consists of bacteria, the
elements Of organs peculiar to the
