Big Surplus of Butter.

As the farmers of this district we'll
know, there has been big drop
in the price of butterfat within the
past few weeks. Sixty days ago but
terfat was quoting at 81 cents and to-
day the quotation locally is IS cents,
Is cents per pound under the higher
quotation.
The farmers Of this region may get
some valuable information out of an
article in the New West Trade Journ-
al from which we quote the following
excerpts
1.-THE butter situation in the United
States has become serious. Dairying Is
a most important industry, butter one
Of our most healthful and economic
foods. At present prices butter is
about the best food value on the mar
ket. Butter production has tended to
increase but consumption has de-
creased largely because of larger pro-
duction and consumption of oleomar
garine, and this consumption of oleo
margarine is largely by farmers, even
dairy farmers, who should know bet
ter and have more principal
Retail merchants should push the
sale of butter. Farm papers should
take it up. All agencies should edu-
cate the public to the superior merit
and food value Of butter"
The article sets forth the fact that
the production of oleomargarine dur
ing the first II months Of 1929 showed
an increase of 81 million pounds over
the same period of 1923. This fact
should give the farmers something to
think about in the face of the present
price of butterfat.
Dealers of the northwest are max
ing plans to sponsor broadcast over
radio network for the purpose Of
stimulating the consumption of but
ter.
Millions Of pounds Of butter are in
storage at the present time due to the
increased consumption Of oleomargar-
inc. 1t is hardly a laudable fact to
realize that the farmer, the man who
produces butter is guilty of purchas-
ing oleomargarine with money he gets
from the creamery for his cream.
There is no quicker way to wreck the
| industry.
According to the monthly report of
cold storage holdings in the United
States issued by the department of
agriculture, holdings of butter on the
first of the year showed a large sur

National holdings Of butter on jan
uary first were estimated at 81 1877,
900 pounds, compared with 43,783,0 900
a year ago and a five-year average
Of 48, $4,000 pounds. These figures in

Twenty-four carloads in Is days

Sargon was introduced in April of last

quired carloads in only four months.

wholesale branches in leading cities,
is selling at the rate of over a mil

and had denied it to Cynthia, who
did want it.
That feeling of injustice had
burst into full bloom as she, like a
Cinderella, had returned to her poor
abode. That was why she had been
able to contrast her lot with the
lot of the class to which Eleanor
and Dean belonged, instead OF find
ing herself submerged beneath a
flood of Mortified speculation.
Or perhaps recognition Of the fact
that she almost must instantly
make the most momentous decision
of her life had nunbed her wits to
all save unimportant externals.

quently unconcerned with the life
that is slipping from them. Nature
is sometimes gentle and produces a
sort of anesthesia which makes us
happily unconscious of the greater
matter while alert to the lesser.
Well, this mental aneSthesia
which temporarily had dulled her
was losing it's potency now. AS one
comes out of ether, SO she became
alive to the situation. The ques-
tions that she had refused to put
to herself as she rode up here
shrieked for answer now.
VXTHAT was she going to do?
w She knew of no possible way
of ascertaining the whereabouts Of
Eleanor and her lover. And had
Eleanor wished her to know where
she and Phil had gone, it would
have been easy for the Grant girl
to telephone. She had promised to
do so and had not kept her word.
1t was useless to speculate on the
reasons behind this amazing dis
appearance. Cynthia had done
enough of that already. Instead,
it was time to come to some definite
conclusion as to her own actions.
She was appalled, at the fact that
she could consider bordering her
own actions. For over and over
again she had assured herself that
her departure from Carey's house
had been equivalent to a departure
from Carey's life. The bond between
herself and Eleanor had become
tenuous through too great strain;
she had believed that it had
snapped when she left, furtively,
the home destined for the bridal
couple.
She had done all for Eleanor that
she could do, more than any decent
woman-and she blushed-Would
have considered doing.
OF course, what Eleanor would
term good reason might not seem
to an ordinary person to be worthy
of mention. Eleanor had managed
10 find good reason for leaving her
husband of half an hour while she
fed to the bedside of her lover.
The girl was abnormal, no queS-
ton of that But Cynthia, who had
substituted herself for the Grant
brioe, was also abnormal. She was
forced to admit this.
But her own departure from nor
mality would only be caused by the
urgent need of another, whereas
Eleanor would do as she did to
please herself.

Following lunch, the party again took 4heir&boats, headed for Takqtna, -Mrasand Mrs. Afford being in one boat, and Mir. and Mrs. Oates and son Freddie in another. Arriving at taa point stated as about two turns .above Victoria Bar, the members of the party noticed a boat, without occupant, run up the river bank. Going over to the boat and making observations, it was noted that the boat had run into a bunch of willows. The propeller of the boat was entangled with willows and of course had, brought about it's stop page. No response came to yells and shouts made by the visitors.
