As we have heretofore shown, this pin of gathering the cream, Instead of the milk, seems likely to be the plan of the futuce. The difficultes of gett Ing mi k from any distance in proper condition for raising creami are almost iusur mointable; whilst on tills plan the milk Is set at home, and the cream tak en beore any detericration eau take place, aind this can be transported many milles without taking Injury. It will be very caisy to refrigerate tile Cream111, and to handle it in all respects oil the most approved plani. This plan, wheni properly worked out in all its detalls, seems likely to revolutionize bitter making, by (Iverting all tile milk or eream I rom private dairies and coien tratiLLg it in large establishments, which can always make a utniform arf tice. And When we alttaill a proper butter pavkage, which shall effectually exclude the air and enable us to trans port butter to loig distances, retaining all its line flavor, we helleve there will be no lack of a market.

A lighlly exeitilng halgeri match took place near Shellandoal, Mehuylkill conity, recently. 'T'le dog had to pu1ll the badger out or an empty barrel to will. 'TIe (log weighed 21 pounds; the badger tipped the seale at 17. The match took pIce in a stable at night. McCandlish arrived with his badger in a bag and a few moments later, Donnelly with his (og. Three men were selected, and the rules were explained to them. According to the arrangements illade, I)onelly wagered that his dog would draw the badger out of the barrel in less than an hour. )onnelly was to handle his (log and McCandish the bidger- but neither animal was to be touched while they were together. I'ho (log was looked on as a certain winner. The badger was a weak and insignificant, looking little animal, buI, its eyes gleamed viciously, and its long glistening teeth teeth snapped as it was taken out of the bag and placed on the ground. The badger, after eyeing the crowd, wadled complacently into a barrel that, was fastened on its side ill one cornier of the stable. The badger is imported and is six years old. It. has fought sixteen bat ties and been "1drawn " four times in this country and twice in Englind. When the (log was uchained it approached the barrel and sniffed at it suspiciously, but the bad ger's teeth snapped deflantly, and in a secon(1 " )an "1 had entered and they were at it. The badger's tough hide and heavy coat of hair protected it greatly, and as it used its teeth and braced itself firmly againat. the sitie of the barrel, ".Dan's " ef forts to (raw it out did not meet w ith much success. Alter twenty-two minutes des perate fighting the dog's teeth slipped and it fell outside t lie barrel. Before it could reenter, X)Pnelly seiZp(l the dog and Ill tended to a number of ugly wounds on its face. At the same time McCandisi was paying similar attentions to the badger. Time Ieing called again, the dog bolted into the barrel like a shot, and after a brief struggle got the badger almost to the month ; but. byi a sudden wrench the cour igeous little [animal freed itself and got back before " Dan" could prevenlt. It was now forty-five minutes since the fight had opened, and the crowd began to think that "Dan" had anything but a soft con ract, and bets were freely offered that the (log would not. win. The (log was allowed to breathe twice in the remaining firt in minutes, and each time it. returned plueki ly to the fray; but when the time expired it was still st.rugghlng in te barrel and the badger was no nearer 1drawn'' that it had been when the struggle began. Five miII ttes extra tilie was allowed the dog, but it failed to defeat its resolute lit tle opponent, and they were separated.
