KEEP BUTTER DURING WINTER
To Retain Its Quality Temperature of
Cellar Should Be Maintained as
Low as Possible

A supply Of butter that will keep
through the winter is much desired on
most farms, but many find it difficult
to produce it. There are two or three
secrets that must be observed First.
If the cellar is musty, it must be care
fully scraped and cleaned and the side
walls and ceiling swept Then it will

tumigation with at least a pound of
sulphur is another way OF destroying
the must germs. The cellar should be
closed tightly for several hours while
the fumigaton is in process.
What makes a cellar damp or
mnsty? Usually il is because some
thrifty person is anxious to keep it
sweet and let's in the warm air of the
lay. Warm air contains large
amount of moisture, which Is preClpl-
lated upon the cold walls, and ii nat
urally follows that the cellar Is first
damp then musty and, later. moldy.
Ventilate cellars only during cold
aights.
Now the butter. The cream should
be ripened only to a point OF pleasant
icidity. Stop the churn when the
granules of butter have begun to come
and have massed to the size OF kernels
of wheat Draw off the buttermik and
put in an equal amount of clear. cold
water Reyolye once or twice and

CEREAL MARKET
IS VERY WEAK
Saturdays Market)

PORTLAND, Ore.-Dullness was the
only showing in the cereal trade here
and at other Pacific Northwest points
during the week
Not enough trade was shown at in
terror points to firmly establish val
ues.
While there continued a very fair
demand for wheat from Australia the
prices offered are still below what the
trade here is willing to sell at The
result is almost complete stagnation
in the market.
Oats market was also a stagnant af-
fair during the week. there being liz.
tie movement and no life to prices.
Barley showed slightly improved
feeling most Of the week with fair
increase in business.
Flour market was limited both for
export and patent with no open
changes in prices although secret cut
ting Of patent continues
Entire millstuff market was very
quiet with little business available.

REPLY TO BRITISH
ORDER MADE BY U. S.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-The
reply of the United States government
to the British order-in-council de-
creeing a virtual blockade against
commerce to and from Germany
was cabled to American Ambassador
Page at London last night for pre-
sentation to the British foreign Of
flee.
As soon as the communication has
been delivered it will be made public
here and in London under an agree
ment between the two govrnmnts. In
the meantime officials decline to give
any intimation of it's contents.
Diplomats of other neutral coun-
tries, particularly those of South and
Central American governments, have
displayed the greatest interest in the
note. Several of them were among
Secretary Bryan's callers. though SO
far as could be learned none gained
any positive information as to the
character of the document
Since efforts to bring about joint
representations regarding the rights
of neutrals on the high seas failed II
is understood that the South and Gen.
tral American republics desire strong
ly to move along lines set by the
United States to establish their rec
ord which will form the basis OF
claims for damages suffered by their
citizens through the activities of the
allied fleets.

Stories From the War Zone

LONDON. March 22.-(By Mail to
New York There Is one section OF
the Anglo-German battle front where
there was no Christian truce. A let
ter written by a German officer to
the British battalion occupying that
particular line. copy Of which has
just reached London from the officer
who received 1t, explains the reason.
Gentlemen" wrote the German,
you asked us yesterday temporarily
to suspend hostilitles and to become
friends during Christmas. Such a
proposal In the past would have been
accepted with pleasure, but at the
present time. when we have clearly
recognized England's real character
we refuse to make any such agree
ment.
Although we do not doubt that you
are men OF honor, yet every feeling
OF ours revolts against any friendly
intercourse towards the subjects OF
nation which for years has, in un-
derhand ways, sought the friendship
OF all other nations, so that with thei'
help they might annihilate us; a ma
ton also which, while processing
Christianity, is not ashamed to use
dunn dunn bullets; and whose greatest
pleasure would be TO see the political
disapeparance and social eclipse OF
Germany
Gentlemen. you are not, it is true
the responsible leaders of English
politics and so are not directly re-
sponsible for their baseness; but all
