Butter and Butter Substitutes.

The great majority of people eat but.
ter and much prefer it to any of the sub
stitutes which have been put upon the
market. However, a great many people
must use substitute on account OF the
high prices which prevail during certain
months of the year.
Oleomargarine is the most common
substitute for butter and millions OF
pounds of this product are consumed
each year. The difference In cost OF
production between oleomargarine and
butter is so great that when butter Is
retailed at forty cents per pound, oleo'
margarine may be retailed at twenty
cents per pound at as great . profit to
the dealer.
The person who chooses to purchase
the substitute should be allowed to dc
so and he should be required to pay only
the price of the substitute. The differ.
ence in price between the genuine prod
uct and the substitute Is so great thai
dealers are tempted to sell the latter fol
the former. Only by requiring that the
consumers may differentiate between the
two articles can honest traffic In the sub
stitute be insured.
This was contemplated by Congress-
when the present internal revenue tax o
ten cents per pound was levied upoI
"artificially colored oleomargarine.
Many people think that all oleomar
garine is taxed ten cents per pound
That Is not fact. Oleomsrgarine which
| is '.artificially co'ored" so that the con
sumner cannot distinguish 1t from butter
is the only oleomargarine that is thus
taxed. When it is put upon the marke
| in its natural color 1t is only taxed one
fourth of one cent per pound.
Il is only when the product Is made Z
look like butter so tbat 1t may be fraud
ulently sold as butter that burden:om'
tax Is Imposed upon 1t. The imposition
of the tax Is not to suppress the sale o
oleomargarine or to make 1t more ex
pensive to the consumer, but to prevent
fraud in its sale.

to the manager Of an employ ment

A dozen maids ranged against the

produced documentary evidence that
for the last five years most OF her
waking moments had been spent In
the company Of twins. She got the
Job. When she reported for work IN
the afternoon she was introduced to
but one infant.

Pasture Improvement.

E.A Stanford of West Kennebunk,
an expert from the Office of Farm Man
agement of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, is one of the enter
prising young farmers of York County.
His specially is hay, and judging by the
appearance of his barn this year his own
farm is profiting by his expertness.
The result of his hay cropping this year
is barn which is filled to Overflowing
Not only are the mows full to the peak
of the roof, but the barn floor is full
with the exception of eight feet in front
of the big barn door, aud there's ton OF
two in the cellar.
Mr.. Stanford was at work recently on
farm in Canton where he had charge
of an exper iment in the improvement OF
an old pasture, this being a particular
| feature of work which he has taken up
under the auspices Of the department oi
agriculture, and feature in which Mr..
Stanford himself takes great deal OF
| enthusiastic interest.
He was present at the meeting Of the
Dairy Testing Association at Mechanic
Falls recently and spoke briefly on the
subject of pasture Improvement, having
come directly from his Canton expert
ment. He said there is nothing about
Maine farms which needs attention and
improvement more than the pastures,
for if they 60 on for five years more in
the way they have been going the past
five years they will be good exercising
grounds for the cattle and not much
more. Mr.. Stanford's remarks found
great favor with most of the farmers
present at the meeting, for probably all
Of them had had and were having ex'
periences with pastures whose value as
feeding ground was very nearly exhaust.
ed. Mr.. Stanford said that this matter
of pasture improvement was one OF the
features of farm management which had
received absolutely no attention among
the farmers of Maine, who had become
very progressive in almost every line.
He said that he did not know OF single
hill pasture which had been or was being
improved with the exception OF the
work which he has just been supervising
on two and one half acres in Canton.
He spoke approvingly, however, OF the
method employed on some farms OF
dividing pastures and alternating their
use so as to give them rest and the
feed a chance to grow after being fed
down.-Maine Farmer.

These led to the biergarten, to the
wine cellar and to an alley which had
no opening on the street. The police
