But more important still is the au-

headquarters at the Plunkett house IN
Dublin. 1t goes upon only the best OF

cake or cover, but upon the butter IT.

This label is guaranteed as carefully
as are the coins of the realm. Each

to the creamery to which it was deliV-
cred. If by any chance it is found up
on a poor quality of butter, the butter
is at once sent back to the creamery
to which the use of that particular
label was entrusted.
What We Need in America.
We have plenty of creameries in the
United States. Some of them are
owned comparatively by the farmers.
But the farmers stop just short OF the
highest success. The marketing is
generally haphazard. The different
creameries do not cooperate in sell
ing Often good butter goes bad be-
fore it is sold. No one knows where
the demand is greatest today, when
the butter should be sent tomorrow.
The quality is seldom uniform. Many
a good butter maker with good butter
making equipment turns out poor but
| ter because the patrons bring in poor
cream. The farmers do not co-opera-
lively work for quality. The creamery
does not always discriminate between
the best fresh cream and cream that is
trifle stale and old. Butter buyers
cannot know what they are getting.
The name of the creamery upon a
package carries no guaranty of quail
ity. 1t is put on good and bad butter
alike.
A Definite Prescription.
What is needed in the United States
is, first. creameries supported by farm
ers working together comparatively to
produce an absolutely uniform high
grade product; second, brand that is
authoritatively fixed only on butter of
! the highest quality after official tests
and grading; and third, a central as
ISOLATION or federation Of creameries
that will perform the functions of the
Irish Wholesale society and of the
Irish Agricultural Organization society.
This central federation should control
the branding of butter, possibly under
state supervision; 1t should respect
and audit and advise with each sep
arate creamery; it should aid in mar
keting the butter intelligently and
economically.

Differs From American creameries.
We find the mechanical processes OF
butter making much the same as those
in the best up-to-date American butter
factories. We do find, however, that
this cooperative association has had
an output that is OF more uniform eX-
cellence than that OF the American
factory. Here each member seems to
realize more fully than does the Amer
lean farmer that the utmost vigilance
must be exercised in keeping the milk
and cream fresh and free from all i'm
purities, that keeping up the quality OF
the butter is as much his business as
the buttermaker's. Therefore he
breeds and feeds and cares for his
lines suggested by cooperative instrue-
tors and inspectors. The farmer Is
saving his own interests, OF course, tor

tanned for butter. The creamery tests
carefully, not only for butter fat but
for freshness and favor.
r Supervision and Inspection.
Then. too, the Irish Agricultural Or
ganization society, which is the central
federation of all cooperative societies.
inspects the creamery ana lts OUTPUT
frequently, points out defects anu
helps to remedy them. The business
side is not neglected. The organiza-
ton society has complete business su-
peryision of the creameries, Whleh
must keep their accounts and RECORDS
in the way and or forms prescribed by
this central body. The creamerles re-
port to the organization society ana
their books and accounts are period
ically audited by the organization So
cietys auditor.
Co-Operation Does the Work.
In short, the butter is good because
of cooperation. The members coop
crate with each other and with the
Omagh creamery; the Irish Agricul-
tural Organization society co-operates
with the Omagh creamery; the Omagh
creamery is federated with hundreds
of other creameries and is federated
with and co-operates with the Irish
Wholesale society through which the
butter is marketed. 1t is cooperation
everywhere and the object of it all is
to produce good butter to market 1t in
good shape and to get a fair price for
it.

r eC0llS the
Former war

Charles Jorg, who resides on Maxwell
street in this city, was born in Alsace,
now on the firing line Of the present
war. The country was seized by
France during the reign of
Louis XIV and remained a
French province 70 about 200 years.
During the war Of 1870 and III
the country was taken from France by
Germany and it is this war that the
Baratoo citizen recalls. In the little
village where he lived about 5000 sol
diers were given quarters at one time.
They ate up the potatoes and killed the
the cattle, all of which were afterwards
paid for. Mr.. JOrg was then seven
years old and remembers going to a
station and seeing a train load of AL
gerian troops brought by France from
Africa. The fighting was only twenty
miles away and the booming of cannon
could be plainly heard. His father
family packed up all their goods and
were ready to flee at a moment 8
notice, but this they were not forced to
do. They dug deep hole in the cellar
where they buried their wine and other
valuables to keep it from being carried
off by the soldiers.

TWO TRAIN ROBBERS
CAUGHT AND BEATEN

Seattle.-One passenger was shot
and two highwaymen were severely
beaten when they attempted TO hold
up "A Tacoma bound interurban train
near Riverton station, eight miles
of Seattle Monday night. The robbers
were captured and brought to hospl'
tai in Seattle.
a terrible beating was given the
two highwaymen.
That they were not successful was
due TO the presence of mind OF j. Rose
and +, Smith, employees of the traction
company, who led the attack on the
bandits.
The bandits boarded the train at
Chicago avenue, in south Seattle. Al
ter the train had left the city limits
the men masked themselves with
handkerchiefs and started TO rob the
passengers. Commanding everyone TO
hold up his hands, Trew walked to-
ward the smoking compartment Just
as he entered the compartment he
turned and looked at his companion
following him down the aisle. Trew
turned his back to the men in the
small room.
Smith, welding a steel drill, hit
Trew stunning blow over the head.
Immediately all the other men rushed
to Smiths aid and in short time
both highwaymen were disarmed, ly-
ing bruised and bleeding on the floor.
