'Chociellate is made from the eeede of the therbrobia cocoa tree, which is found only in tropical climates, and bears a fruitsome- what like a cucumber in shape, inside which are the Arownish seeds, or beane,which form the coOtt beans of commerce. The principal constituent of these beans is a soft, solid oil called iibooci, butter, and their attractive princittle is the °bromine, analagous to the creffeinelh coffee. There is very little pure ehoeolettla in the inarket, owing to the great medicinkl value of the ocean butter, or Oil, which ?,1Ei expressed in the grinding, and cheaper, leas nutritious oil supplied. One of the beet ways to buy cocoa or chocolate, it is magi is to purchase what are called " cocoli tithe," whicl-t-are the bean e crushed into. fragments, but not ground, for the chocolate is frequently adulterated with roastedhazlenute or ahrionds, rice meal and other ingredients. The leest chocolate is obtained by first buryingtithe fruit until the• pulp is decayed and on4 the bettns are left. The beans are roasted and the shells removed. The choco- late is then ground between stonee, the fric- tion heat of the grinding melting it so that it is a es*, molten mass as it drips from the stones and is poured into moulds. The melt- ed chotailate is preseed in a clothuntil all the oilis expelled ; the sediment is ground very stittvly io prevent re -melting it, and the polder bolted into flour through silken sieves, end then it is called cocoa, which makes a lighter, less nourishing, but more eaeily 8igeeted beverage than chocolate, • , ISIIIMIIIMMINOMMMINVIIMIMIN Proudfoot who has filled the position several years and who is one of the best in the County Council was opposed by Whitely but the retepayers decided v wisely to send Mr. Proudfoot back agf The vote stood, Proudfoot, 322; Whit 303.

There is no good reason why farmers ehould not be as particular in keeping ac- counts ot their business as people in other trades, Ask a farmer how much it cost him last year to produce a ean of milk or a ton of hay, and the chances are that he will give you no direct answer; he may gueee that it cost him about as much as he got for it, basing his judgment upon the fact he is about as much above board, or in debt, as he was a year ago; but beyond this he can, as a rule, give no definite answer. There is no excuse for this sort of reckless management. So long as the farmer does not know whether he Is making money or not,so long as he cannot tell which cow he ought to sell and whieh he ought to keep; so long as he hesitates about what crops his land can produce to best ad- vantage; just so long he will be likely to drift along from year to year in the same old ways, without adapting himself to changing conditions of the times and with- out improving his own financial condition. The farmer need not keep an elaborate system of double entry books. But he should keep a cash account and a pocket memorandum book, and from these he can easily find out which of hie crops pay him best, which of his cows are worth keeping, and whether he ought to make any change in his methods of working. The pocket memorandum should contain a brief record of the work done each day, -which Will be found a great convenience for reference. The success of many crops de- ' pends very much upon the date at which the seed is sown, the plants transplanted and other operations performed. A record of the exact date of each and manner of do- ing the work will prevent any doubt or for - • F2 THE HURON EXPOSITOR • January ia usually a quiet month, but we hope to make it a busy. one.
