BY SECRETARY wnEaTo\. All food products offered for sale should be as neat and tidy in ap- pearance as possible. Nothing will be more effective in lessening the selling value of such products than an appearance of slovenlyness and carelessness in preparing them for market. Though cheese is not so liable as butter to become soiled or untidy in appearance while being prepared for shipping yet neglect on the part of the maker in finishing and boxing the cheese and carelessness on the part of those delivering thein at the station will very often cause cheese to present an almost unsaleable ap- pearance. Defects in finishing a cheese or broken boxes might not affect the sale of the product very much if consumed iii Canada, but will effect the sale very materially when it reaches the English consum- er. It is the English market we are catering to and every one interested should not allow inattention to these little things in getting cheese ready for shipment to lessen their selling value. No cheese -maker should be guilty of allowing the selling value of his factory's product to be lessened be- cause the cheese have cracked faces and broken edges or because the bandages are too short or have not been pulled up properly. Yet how often are cheese with these defects seen in our curing -rooms. While on a visit to some of the factories last fall we came across ono lot of August which had been re- jected by the buyer chiefly because of their untidy appearance. Though the flavor of these goods was not the best yet we were informed by the' purehaser that he would have taken most of the lot at thorice agreed upon only the faces were so adly eraekod, the bandages down and the cheese altogether presented such a slovenly appearanee that he would not think of sending them to bis customers in the Old Land. In shipping care should be taken to have every cheese properly boxed. Every box should be made to fit the cheese closely, and should, if too high, be pared down till it is level with the top of the cheese. Wlien this is done the cover will press upo the face of the cheeso preserving th rind and preventing the cheese iron cracking during transportation. Tw scale boards at each end of th cheese will help to preserve it better If the cover does not fit seeurely it i better to have it fastened with shor tacks. At almost all our factories the cheese are. hauled to the station o shipping point by the patrons. The number of loads taken by each being regulated by the quantity of milk sent. Thirty cheese are usually con- sidered to be a load, and every patron should have a wagon box suitable for carrying that number at least. • The wagon box should be deep enough so that the cheese can be carried in an upright position. Very often the theme are placed on their sides. This is not a good plan as the boxes are more liable to be broken and the covers to get loosen- ed than where the cheese are carried in an upright position. Parties hauling cheese should see that the wagers boxes are clean and suited to the purpose. We have fre- quently seen parties come for a load of cheese with a wagon box on which were still clinging remnants of the manure that had been hauled to the fields the day before. Provision should be made to have the cheese covered during a rain storm. If the boxes get very wet the cheese are apt to mould and to become badly defaced, thus injuring their selling value. There are one or two cases reported where cheese have been rejected because the boxes were badly soaked with rain or the cheese badly defaced while being hauled to the station. n e r1 0 e s t ed on application. Mr. J. S. d'erome, Dentist, Wing ham, says: "Williams' Little Dandelion Pills are the best in the market." iVi r. Geo.

Ex- port cattle had a better tone, on the strength •of improved cables, but other lines were barely steady. Hogs were in heavy supply and weak, prices declining about 5 per cent. Buyers were in good attendance. There were 22 carloads of export stuff, and about 14 carloads of butchers' cattle went through to Montreal. Receipts were 62 car- loads, which included 623 sheep and lambs, 1,200 hogs and nearly 100 calves.- In export cattle there was a firmer tone than last Friday, but prices were about the same, the higher quotations having been paid for choice cattle than has been offer- ing lately. As high as 5.4e per pound was paid for one or two .choice loads, with the ruling figures from 4c @' '5-e per pound. There were about 50 carloads of exporters in, all told, and most of them sold before the close of the day. Iu bnrc1h 'cattle' buying .• was.' onjy Dairy Markets -June 18. ,.. 1n e: noIL....
