SALT IN BUTTER.
aGritty Butter,v tsMottIes. and Effect
of Salt on Market Quality.

aGrftty Bufter,v aMottIes" and Eject
of Salt on Market Quality.
"GrItty butter" is a familiar phrase
used by expert butter scorers to indi-
cate that a part of the salt is present In
an undissolyed condition. Such con-
dltion of the salt In butter may be due
TO % poor condition of the salt before
1t is used; (2) adding so much salt 10
the butter that it cannot properly De
dissolved by the amount of water IN
It; (3) in some instances insufficient
working. When gritty butter Is caused
by insufficient working mottled butter
usually results.
Gritty Butter rs "a Cause of Notifies.
1t is common opinion that if the
salt In butter is not well dissolved
then the butter will become notified on
standing. If all the water has not been
saturated with salt and there Is still
some undissolved salt left, then the
granular salt will cause notifies. This
has been known for a long time, but
whether undissolved salt left in butter
after the water in the butter has been
saturated will really cause notifies
has been a question of conjecture. Ex-
periments at the Iowa station are said
by Messrs. Mckay and Lorsen to prove
satisfactorily that mottled butter does
not always occur from undissolyed
salt. If the butter is worked sufficient
ly to distribute the salt evenly in the
butter and to cause the water to be
saturated, then no notifies will result
from the presence of undissolved salt.
Butter Flavor Covered by Salt.
Owing to the degree of influence the
condition of salt in butter and the
amount of salt have upon the market
quality of the butter. it Is worth while
to give this part of buttermaking as
much study and application of skill as
conditions will permit. 1t might be
mentioned in connection with this that
comparatively poor butter seemed to
have a better sale when the salt con-
tent was comparatively high, while If
the butter were of the better quality a
high salt content did not have the same
effect. This is undoubtedly due to the
fact that the poor butter f1avors are to
a large extent covered up by the salt,
while IL the butter has n good flavor
no salt Is needed to cover up defects.

The Sign of Equality.

Mathematical readers will be inter-
ested in the following quotations from
Robert Recorde, who introduced the
sign Of equality into algebra. Recorde
was the first English author who wrote
on the subject of algebra. In his
treatise called "Whetstone of Witte,''
published about 1857, he says: ITO
ayoide the tediouse repetition Of these
words, is equalle to, / will sette, as |
doe often In worke use, a palre of
parallel lines Of one lengthe, thus: =,
because no 2 thynges can be more
equalle."

Popular Market Potatoes.

There is unanimity of opinion among
Chicago dealers in regard to the supe-
rior selling qualities of the Burbank
potato. OF course there are some differ
ences in the ideas of dealers as to the
relative selling value of Burbank and
Beauty of Hebrons in actual cents per
bushel, but the fact of better demand
for Burbanks Is well known.
Fewer Beauty of Hebrons are offer
ed at western markets at present than
a few years ago. Dealers say this va
riety seems to be running out in popu-
larity and in states tributary to the

Yachting Party.

Freeman S. Hodges, the wealthy
timber land owner of Jacksonville,
with Mrs. Hodges and their guests,
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank G. Russell of
Jacksonville, and Mr.. John A. Cros-
by of San Mateo, spent several days
last week cruising about the lake
and adjacent waters on Mr.. Hodges
launch "Cotuit." The party came
more particularly to visit Mr.. and
Mrs. Chas. S. Gowen and spent much
of their time at Mr.. Governs place
across the lake. Several trips were
made from here to which many
townspeople were invited, probably
the most generally enjoyed of which
was the trip up Haw Greek. The
party made Its headquarters at Grove
Hall. On Saturday afternoon Mr..
Hodges party left on the launch for
home, taking some 20 of our towns
people as far as San Mateo, from
which place they returned on the
steamer Crescent, During the ride
Mr.. Hodges supplied his guests with
refreshments of all kinds.

The White Fly.

This insect is one that is particu-
larly destructive of orange trees.
Prior to the freeze of 1895 it made its
appearance at certain groves III this
neighborhood, but the cold of that
time which wiped out the orange
business also wiped out the pest.
Report has it that the pest is
again in this neighborhood. 1t is re-
ported from the grove of the Haw
Greek Security Go. where it's ravages
are said to be limited to one row of
trees. This has alarmed some of our
grove owners.
The best time to fight the white fly
is ON its first appearance. 1t will be
harder work when it becomes more
general.
The recent report of r. E. Rose,
state chemist, has the following
chapter devoted to the white fly and
the means of graduating it which
we reproduce for the benefit of or
ange grove owners:
Numerous letters are received by
the Agricultural Department asking
for recipes and directions for de-
stroying white fly.
at is evident from the widely dis
tributed addresses of these inquiries
that this pest has become widely
scattered over the state, and that in
few years, if means are not provided,
it will generally infect all the groves
of the state. The white fly can be
found in different localities, from
Tallahassee to Fort Meyers.
'"That it can be eradicated from in
fected groves admits of no doubt, as
it certainly has been SO eradicated,
for a time at least; that it may re-
appear is probably certain, and most
likely it will require constant vigil
lance to keep it within bounds.
1.-The use of Resin Wash No. 4 is
the most common remedy, if used as
a spray, at the time the young are
crawling it is effective. Good results
have also been had by using a solu-
ton of common laundry soap-resin
soap-while equally good results
have been had from the use of soap
powders--" Pearline and Gold
Dust" 1t is evident that in each
and all of these applications, the vir
tue is not in particular kind of
soap, but the fact that the soap fills
the breathing pores and thus sutfo-
Gates the insect. The same results
occur in the use of kerosene emGl
sion.
IA mixture of soap solution, or
resin wash with sulphur wash, as
described in No. Is, will be found eff
fective, if applied at proper times
in the winter when the young are DOR
mant-in spring and summer when
Young are crawling. The work must
be thoroughly done; one good spray
ing is better than two poorly applied
ones. This matter is serious one,
affecting as it does one of the prin-
cipal industries of the state. 1t de-
mands Joint action of all neighbour
hoods now effected, and should
receive the careful attention of the
various counties, and the state legis-
lature, with view of some general
effort being bad looking to the proper
control of the pest.
