PURE BUTTER. FULL WEIGHT.

There has bcen a good dea sad
about the purity of butter and the
short weight of butter packages in this
! city. Appeals have been made for cor
rectioD as TO the purity OF the pro
! luction. and n very considerable sue
cess has attended the effort Of Mr.,
! Frazier. our food inspector, TO clint
nate Impure butter. aud TO prove 10
butter dealers that it is to their inter
esi 10 sell the pure article.
a like effort has been made 10 re-
nuirc the full weight Of sixteen ounces
to the pound; but By reason OF our
| curious legislation, the short weight
packages have generally been sold
for a pound; the dealer being pro
tectci if re will, in as i6conspicuous
a place as be pleases indicate that
the weight of tSc package is but
fifteen ounces This has been the prac-
tice, and so the law is complied with,
But that kind of law is direct and
to the preparation of fraud; for every
Que supposes that in buying what
passes for pound of butter he buys
the full sixteen ounces. rs honesty
and Justice require. But under the law.
If the dealer will MAKE a package short
weight. and say so, even though the
purchaser, as a rule, pays no attcn-
ton TO that part of the label the
dealer escapes liability. The fact that
o., l,lp
sition 10 work over the butter and
take out an ounce from every pound
is verv evident when we consider that
probably 10000 pounds of butter are
used in this city etery day. The
dealers, therefore, gain more than one
pound in every twenty; and SO they
steal from the people Of this city
about 1900 pounds of butter a day,
which the people pay for unler the
supposition that they arc getting 1T,
but which they do not.
In Idaho it appears to he different.
We have from Mr.. James ", Wallis Il
note and sample advertisements OF
butter dealers in ldabo all going TO

curing and selling sixteen ounces to
the pound there, and that dealers
advertise their compliance with the rule
rs something advantageous TO their
trade Mr.. Wallis. directing attention
TO his commercial phase Of the matter
SAYS, 1--WE insist on fully sixteen
ounces I'd the pound. That Is the
true measure of pound; il IS what
ought TO prevail III all honesty and
fairness in Utah. Just Us it does III
Id.ho. We trust that when the next
Legislature OF Utah meets. there will
be a move TO amend the law which has
been made TO serve the interest Of
fraudulent short weights to the great
profit Of the retail dealers, and that
the requirement. will be made for fully
sixteen ounces TO the pound in Utah.
as the requirement now is in Idaho.
In the meantime. we arc glad to
note that at meeting In tommis
sioner Hansen S Office, held on Wedncs
day. a general agreement was reached
by the leading butter dealers to put
tho honest sixteen ounces in every
pound package Of butter. That is the
right thing 10 do. and Commissioner
Hansen is entitled to public thanks for
bringing about this welcome reform.

JUNE CROP REPORT

Reports coming to this Depart
ment as to the conditions of crops
on the first day of June show the
condition OF wheat to be rs 4 per
cent. This is a decrease OF nearly
4 per cent from 20 per cent since
the first of May.
The wheat crop has not come out
as it has sometimes after a severe
freezing during the winter. With
an acreage of s3s per cent, and a
condition OF 75.4 per cent, there is
not a great prospect for a wheat
crop in the State this year. Condi-
tim ofrye is given as 1872 per cent;
the corn acreage as indicated is 80.
q per cent, or an average crop con-
dition Of corn Sis per cent. The
great amount Of rainfall and the
hoo conditions prevented the SOW.

ing Of a large crop Of oats, 797 per
cent being reported, the condition OF
which is 9O.3 per cent. Potatoes
is one OF the most promising crops
Kentucky has this year. The acer-
age being $50 per cent aud the con.
dticn 95.3 per cent. The per cent
Of dark tobacco transplanted June
the first is 81 4 per cent, indicating
rapid progress is being made IN the
planting of this crop. The Burnley
section has transplanted only 5l.1
per cent of its crop. The recent dry
weather has prevented the rapid
transplanting OF tobacco, and the
use Of settlers" has been resorted to
in order to get the crop out.
Both the pig and lamb crops are
short ones, indicating a crop OF 50 8
per cent Of pigs, and ss.7 per cent
Of lambs. The shortage of pigs and
lambs is in a great measure due to
severe winter and unfavorable spring
conditions. Poultry has also suffer-
ed in this respect. The fruit crop is
no; a good one. Condition OF APP
piles, 7O.4 per cent; peaches els per
cent; pears 1913 per cent; plums
81. s per cent; grapes ST. per cent
is reported. Blackberriss are not to
be so plentiful this year. Only 7o.2
per cent average crop reported, with
raspberries but little better, III
per cent.
Blue grass is reported as showing
a condition of103.5 per cent. alfalfa
81 per cent, and clover sS.4 per
cent. Some places report an entire
failure ofclover, and others an un.
usually good crop. Inc same Is true
Of the fruit and berry crops. Fail
ure is reported from some points in
the State, and an unusually good
condition in others. The Southern
section of the State, as a rule, re-
ports wheat in a fairly good condi-
ton, while the central and north.
ern sections of the State report an
unusually poor condition exists.
Taken as a whole, the report for
Iune indicates that it will be impos.
sibIe for Kentucky to produce an
unusually large grain crop even with
the most favorable weather condi-
tions prevailing the remainder Of
the season.-Department of Agricul.

ALONG CLASSIC LINES.

One Of the most perfect types Of
classic buildings in America, accord
ing to architects, has been built by
the United States government at
Denver, Colo, to be used as a post
office and to house the various fed
eral offices in that city with the ex-
ception of the mint, says Popular
Mechanics. The building is of pure
white marble from Colorado quarries
and is 80 feet long by 1870 feet deep
and four stories in height. The style
is a type of Roman architecture
adapted to modem conditions, and
the facades are regarded as notable
in the faithfulness Of their classic
lines. On each Of the longer sides
there are sixteen massive columns,
and on the shorter sides six columns.
Symbolic statuary is used in groups
and in single figures to relieve the
building of the severity of its gen.
eral outlines, the entire structure
giving an idea Of simple beauty that
makes it striking example Of pphlid
building architectnSs.
