low TALLOW BUTTER IS MAD.
The character and process of the man
ufacture of oleoinargarine or tallow
butter are simple enough, but are not
generally understood on account- of
the prejudice which very naturally
exists against the article. The oil anti
butter are made out of beef fat. The
fat is taken from the slaughtered ani
mals and conv(yed at once to the fae
tory, where it undergoes an overhaul
Ing. The fat is then submitted to two
distinct processes of melting and relin.
Ing. It first passes through a mcthetinc
in which an auger shaped shalt re
volves, and from this it is delivered
mashed to a paste, into huge kettles
These kettles stand in boiling water
which heats the fat to blood heat anc
separates all substainees which are
soluble at that temperature. Tle oil
Is drawn front the irat kettles Int<
barrels, and as it still contains stea.
rine, it soon hardens. It is then put
through the final process of refinhig
Packed in white cloths, miade for th,
purpose, it is put in cakes or lr-yerz
into pow(rful hydraulic presses, by
which the pure oil is presieed out iint
receivers and cnV yetd through pipet
to an adjoining bullumg, where it 1e
delivered, tasteless and free from odor
into barrels. The stearine remains il
the cloths, and is sold separate!y. A
the oil runs from the faucets it is of i
bright, clear amber color. This Is the
substance which is exported, and some
idea may he formed of the exten, o:
the foreign demand from the tact tha'
three thousand barrels, contaiiing
over one mililon pounds of the oil
have been shipped within the pa twee
on an order from a single house Il
Holland. When wade luto the butter
the oil Is put into large tanks wilt
fresh milk and churned by machinet
until It comes out a substaiice similar i
appearance to butter. The Dutch Il
Holland will not buy the butter a:
ninde in this counti y, but buy the oil
and make the butter themsches.

BnooK TnOUT.-An inhabitant of a
trout region says that brook trout are
never so good as when cooked - in the
following simUple fashion. When
cleaned and wiped dry with a soft
cloth and a gentle hand, dip them
lightly in flour and lay thorn in a
"spider," or frying-pan in which a
moderate amount of the most del!ci
ous Iresh butter is sizzling. Sprinkle
,delicately with salt, and lot them fry
quickly until the flesh looks done and
the skin Is crisp brown. Thus served
a brot k trout is "a dream of delight."
There are three necessary things
about this method: The fIsh must be
newly arrived from wriggling about in
their palace of running water; the pan
and the butter must be very hot-the
latter sputtering-before the fish are
Placed therein ; and the butter must
be best of the best and freshest of the
fresh-newly churned, if possible.
Tn EMsT RICE PUDDINo.-This rice
pudding is the best over mado in spite
of the fact that it Is the cheapest. The
secret of its perflectioR is the long
cooking it gets. For a six o'clock din
nor the rice and milk should be put on
early In the forenoon. The best thing
to cook it in is a double kettle. Let it
simmer on the back of the stove-it
must never boll-until a couple of
hours before dinner. It will then be
a thick, creamy substance. Then salt
and sweeten It to taset, put it into a
pudding dish, and bake it in a moder
ate oven until it is of a jolly like thick
ness and the to) is sligntly browned.
It can be eaten either hot or cold. If
the latter is preferred, the pudding
may be made the day before, if that is
most convenient. If desired a liavor
may be added. This is emphatically
the Perfect pudding of the kind.

A Quiscy d-uggist was sitting be
side tle base-burner in his store star
lui at the rows of bottlos on the
shelves, and wondering why. people
don't take more medicine, when the
door softly opened and an eight-year
old urchin( dodged in. Walking up to
the compounder of prescriptions, he
said :
"Mister, ain't there some kind of
stul that you kin rub on that'll make
a follow's skin as tough as an oleph
ant's?"
The druggist looked the boy over,
and replied:
"Yes, the oil of tannin will harden
the skin, if that's what you mean."
"That's the trick Fm playin' fur
exactly. Giinie ten cents' worth-"
While putting It up the druggist
asked: "What do you waat to harden
your hands for? Going to the country
to husk corn ?"
"Husk nothin' an' my ban's is as

When the desired inforniation was

acute pain that she was compelled to

LOSSES IN FEEDING.-It IF a well set
tled fact that a large per cent. of the
food of poor ly bre d stock is ut terly
wasteul. On'y well bred stock of any
kad have a good capacity for asslini
latlirg their food. When a'given quan
tity of feed may w'th con fidnene be re.
lied upon to make ten pounds of beef,
pork, etc., when fed to well bred stock
it is a fact of 9li experience that when
fed to poorly bred anima's it will fall
a large per cent. short of that number
of pounds. The difference, as a'ready
stated, lies in the widly different capa
c'ty to assimilate and digest. So it is
seen that the loss of breeding lie at the
bottom of the matter Farmers and
stock men, when considering the mat
ter of strok on the farm, should con
sider whether it is their Interest to be
content with that class of low bred
stock which certainly results in farm
waste: especially so when with a good
animal they can soon bring up their
stock to high grades. A good one at
the head of the herd may cost a hun
dred or two dollars, but not halt so
much as the usual annual waste of food
and time.
COTTON SEND 01L.-Tne maniifaot
ure of oil from the cotton seed Is be
coming of importance in bhe United
States. The annual quantity of seed
converted into oil now amounts to
about four hundred and ten thousand
tons, the yield being at the rate of
somei thirty-five gallons of oil to the
ton of seed. Moreoyer, each ton leaves
seven hundred and fifty pounds of oil
cake of admilrable fittening qualities.
A great deal of the oil is eKported to
Italy and other countries where the ol
lve is a staple; and in point of fact,cot
ton seed oil is there superseding olive
oil, not only for utilitarian purpose,
but also as an article of food.

In 1869 Herr von Bezold, Interred
from observations in Bavar ia that there
was an increase 'rom year to year In
the nnmber of builaings struck by
lightning. There seemed to be also an
increase IA tho. number ot. thunder
storms, and this was assigned as the
cause. A little later, ebservations (by
others) in Saxony and Schleswig-Hol
stein also showed an increase In the
number of houses 'struck, but no com
parison was made with the number of
thunder storms. Herr Holtz has late
ly made 'a fuller inquiry on the basis of
data from all parts of Germany, and
from Austria and Switzerlarnd. In his
brochure on the subject he publishes two
tables, one to show the increase or de
crease of thunder storms since 1854,
since 1862 and sincs 1870 in the differ
ent regions, the other the increase or
decrease of lightning risk estimated
from comparison of the number of
lightning strokes on houses with the
entire number of houses. It appears,
then, that while any increase in the
number of thunder storpas is extreme
ly small, and there is in some cases
even a decrease, the lightning risk
showe a very large increase, and in no
case a decrease. Thus the increase of
risk from lightning must be regarded
as not due, unless in very slight meal
;use,to mw teorological influences. This
appears more distinctly in that the in
crease of lightning risk is proportion
ately greater as the compared years
are further apart; but It is not so with
the increaqe of thunder storms (which,
e. g.,'is less since 1854 than 1866). To
explain the Increased risk by telluric
changes, Herr Holtz supposes the
clearance of lorest land has to do with
it; perhaps, also, the increase of rail.
ways, both of these bringing thunder
storms more to towns and villages,
Another probable cause Is the in
creased use of metal in house construc
tion.
