AUNT BUsY's TALK ON PUSSY CATS

Dear Aeices and Nephews: Aunt Busy has of
ten told you how dearly she loved pussy cats and
she wants you to hear true story about a really
truly cat, story that appeared in tbe salt aLo
Herald during the past week
Aunt Busy has known many wise "l,ittv-cats ~,
kitty pussles and pussy cats" but she really
thinks the "kitty-puss" from Nevada the very
smartest OF all cats, she will publish the Herald
story and let the dear children form their own opn-
ion about Tom.
From Caientes to Salt Lake, distance of 937
miles, over rugged mountains and across desert
wastes, Is a feat that was completed Monday morn
ing as the result of feline instinct and perseyer-
anee The pilgrimage was a round trip affair the
outgoing trip being invountarily taken in passen-
ger coach OF the San Pedro, Los Angeles d. Salt
Lake railroad. The hero of the adventure was a
large red cat named Tom. The name of the owner
OF the cat Is withheld for the reason that he doesn't
want to be queered with the railroad company. The
man and the cat formerly occupied the same domi-
cine and these relations We're yesterday resumed.
The story began three weeks ago Monday when
it discovered that the foundation for the Sun
day breakfast, large founder. had been devoured
during the night by the cat The potentate of the
household Immediately passed a sentence of Danish
ment the offender, but the cat refused to abide
by the decision.
The situation was rendered more serious by rea-
of incubator in the house that had Just been
filed with eggs. A family council was held and
il was decided that the sacety of the future chickens
ueEeLueu OH the Delng carried INTO ell
feet. Tom there fed, put into a sack and tax
en- to the depot that evening, where he was placed
under seat in the car. Tom submitted without
demurring sufficiently to attract the attention of the
trainmen, and in a few minutes he was going south
The journey toward the equator continued until the
end of the line reached. Ia the cottage Tom
soon became a memory, and when referred to he
was held by the children especially as d martyr.
Yesterday morning the first chirping of the chick
ems in the incubator and the purring of Tom the
porch were concurrent at an early hour. The cat
was somewhat emancipated from the effects of ex-
posure and over exertion. The relative merits of
the consideration due a plucSy cat and the safety
Of a brood of chickens was a serious question all
day yesterday with a certain family in the north
west part of town. In the contest the cat is the
quieter but more eloquent party to the action.
Now. Aunt Busy would like very well to hear
some opinions from the neces and nephews about
Tom. Poor ragged old Tom,
Aunt Busy thinks he Is a brave, fearless, old
fellow and really believes that good moral can be
learned fronl/his perseverance.
Some times during the warm spring days when
the way to school seems so very far and tiresome,
Just remember what you read about old Tom and
trudge along Your loving
AUNT BUSY.

brought puppy also; and then she put Martha to
bed and the little sick girl told all the wonderful
things that had happened, and how naughty pussy
had been.
Mamma listened and said at times Indeed y
and at other times, 'M-y-y-v" But at last she be
gan to cry, only she did not let Martha see her. and
when she went downstairs she said she is delir-
ious, think, papa"
Martha got very well after a while. aud, while
she still liked pussy, she never was so fond of
her as she used to be-
When she grew up to be big girl her mamma
told her about queer dream she had when she
was baby; but Martha never quite understood
until she went to school and learned a whole lot of
things.
She still has that Noah's ark, but puppy was
run over and killed. and pussy was lost when the
family moved to Price Hill.-Joseph P. Keay in

A Check on Siberian Butter.

During. the last few years Siberian
and Russian butter has become a
very important factor in the European
market. About 16, 900 tons of Siberian
butter went to England each of the
recent years, and several thousand
tons more to other European coun-
tries. 1t had been improving in quail
ity to such an extent that it was prov
ing a strong competitor to the butter
made in Denmark, France and other
countries. The Russian government
was fostering this trade, going to the
trouble of providing refrigerator,
steamers to carry the butter from
Baltic ports to England. But now the
outbreak of the war in the East has
apparently paralyzed the whole traf-
fic, at least SO far as Siberian butter
is concerned. The government has
FOUND 1T necessary to use the Siberian
railway almost exclusively for the
transportation Of troops and of army
supplies As it is a single-track road,
1t does not require very much of a
trafhc to test its capacity. 1t is there
fore very doubtful If the butter can
at the present be shipped west. Per-
haps the government will be able to
take the entire output of the Siberian
creameries for use in its Asiatic army.
but in any event the butter must tenn
porarily disappear from the English
market

Ermine and other white furs are

use 1t while still hot.
In ironing handkerchiefs it is use

Canadian Cheese in Great Britain.

Canadian cheese is apparently TAX
Ing very high place in the market
OF Great Britain. 1t long ago drove
out American cheese, which had OBJ
ta1ned a bad name from the amount
OF filed cheese that was sent from
thls country under the name of full
cream cheese Last year Canada sup
piled 6S per cent of all the cheese
used in Great Britain, the money re-
ceived from Canadians from this
source being over $21, 100000. So
much for honesty in a manufactured
product. Legislation has much to do
with the success of the business of a
country, as is seen in the case in
hand. When Americans were debat-
Ing whether it was right to prohibit
the making of filled cheese, Canada
mad already passed a law prohibiting
the manufacture of a pound of that
KIND OF cheese for any purpose. Some
men said that it was tyrannical, but
otners said it was good business fore
slght. The money that has rolled into
Canada since that time on account
OF its good cheese has proved that
the legislation was the best kind of
business policy. After that time
the United States passed law max
ing 1T practically impossible to manu-
1acture filled cheese for sale in this
country, but we still permit the manu-
1acture OF filled cheese for export to
foreign countries. Some OF our manu-
1acturers are taking advantage of the
law to make for English trade the
same kind of cheese that lost us our
trade In the first place. 1t goes out
OF the country properly branded, but
1t is very doubtful If it is retaf1ed on
the other side of the water as filled
cheese.

Preservatixes In Milk.


From Germany comes the report of
the invention of new milk preserva-
tive so powerful that it will destroy
all bacteria in milk and will then dis
sipate itself in water, making it i'm
possible for the chemist to discover
its presence. especially if it has been
Kept day or so before being tested.
There is no doubt that If this pre-
servative were introduced into this
country it would have a ready sale
with some of our milk handlers Their
policy has been to buy those preserva-
tives that cannot be detected. First
they were using borax in one form
or another, but the chemist had no
trouble in detecting that kind of a
preservative. Then the users of pre-
servatives changed to salicylic acid.
but the chemist followed them. After
that some one suggested that formal
dehyde could not be detected and at
once there was an enormous sale of
this deadly chemical for the use of
milk handlers. 1t took the chemists
some time to find a way of detecting
formaldehyde, but they did find test
in the end. Now the sellers of these
compounds are looking for something
else that can be used to mystify tho
chemists.
How many deaths have been caused
by the use of these drugs in milk we
will never he able to guess What
ever preservative is used in other food
materials, none should be used in
milk that has a harmful effect on the
human system. We say harmful, be-
cause there are preservatives, like
sugar and molasses, that are not
in themselves harmful to the digestive
systems. As yet many of our states
have taken no action to prevent the
use of preservatives in milk
