The question of greatest interest

If we had a number of large and,.we

Several years experience in the pas
that there is no need of enforcing
here. It is an evidence of the lack
dairying facilities on a proper scale,
well as a striking illustration of t
conservatism of Canadian farmers,
some quarters at least, that they ha
continued so long making dairy butt

A new use for the rifle in warfare has

at ered in the late campaign in Turkey—
ilk namely, its application to vertical firing.

his factory is Managed by a join
stoek company of farmers, and pays a
dividend of about -ten per cent. per an
num upon the capital invested. They
charge the patrons three and a hsli
cents per pound for making the butter
and furnishing the salt and tinnets, and
make one pound of butter from twenty-
five pounds of milk throughout the sea-
son. The butter sold for 23-ic, netting
the .patron's 20j cents per pound, after
paying expenses. They also get back
the skimmed and butter milk, which.is
valuable to them for feeding young
stock, and Innen superior to whey. In
two neighboring crearaeries, which cost
only 01,000 each, is charged four cents
per pound for manufacturing, and the,
butter netted the patrons twenty-one
cents per pound, last season, better sales
having been made than in the first fac-
tory.
• The managers of a Western creamery
offered the dairymen of an adjoining
township, to start a creamery for them,
if they would furnish 300 cowS-, a,ud to
pay them twenty cents per pound for
the, butter throughout • the whole sea-
son, free of all expense to them for
manufacturing or package. But this
offer, will it be believed, was not ac-;
cepted. It is unaccountable that far
mer will thus refuse to take 20 cents
for their butter, free of expenSe for labor
or tinnets, p:referring to have their wives
-and daughters make it at home, and
then, perhaps, sell it at 10 to 15 cents
per pound, or at six to ten cents in a
season like the present.
A large shipper, just returned from
England., states that butterine has com-
pletely superseded • ordinary Canadian
butter in the British markets. He
visited the retail stores in the principal
citieS there, trying. to sell his Canadian
butter, and he found them stocked with
medium butter which was selling very
slowly. He saw them retailing butter-
inc in large quantities, and was told
that they sold ten packages of butterine
to one of common butter ; -the former
being preferred because of its more nu-
tritious qualities. Butterine is on the
table in all the ordinary eating houses
as well as butter, and is frequently used
in preference to it. The 'commission
merchants are receiving butteriue week-
ly, fresh from the factories, and have
orders from the cousin -tiers to sell im-
aliately on arrival at the „. current
-ices, and on no account to hold it for
better market. The, reason for such
remptory orders is that butterine,
lien held any time, goes entirely out
condition. We hear of a lot now go -
g a begging in a British port at 30/
r hundred. Butter makers would do
ell to adopt the above course in selling
eir produce, for one great cause of so
uch inferior -butter is the pernicious
stom farmers have of holding back
eir butter from- market in anticipa-
n of higher prices, until it has de-
rierated in quality and lost its flavor
d value. The best quality of butter -
sells for about 90'- in the English
rket, the second for 75 and the

perience, and giving it a fair trial, he
writes to his friend's in Toronto, under
date of April 28,1878, and says :—"This
is become a very poor country. There
are hundreds here out of employment,

one of the most reliable houses that we have la
Canada. The public can rely on getting

ers and others buying in quantities we sell al
kinds of Garden Seeds in Bulk, and do net repine -
mend Seed in papers. I have on hand a large
stock of
SWEDE TURNIP,
Comprising Hall's. Westbury, Carter's, Imperial,
Skirving's Improved East Lothian and Rope
Norfolk, Grey Stone, White Globe, &c. , Al-
though the price of Turnip Seed is very high tIne'
year, parties intending to buy will do well to ex-
amine my stock and see my prices before Intr
chasing elsewhere, as I think I can sell as eheap
if not cheaper than any other house in the trade.
