Prof. Thomas Shaw Bays: Th ex
lent to which "Berkahlrea have been
diffused in the various countries Into
ivhlch they have been Imported Is even
more remarkable than the extent to
ivhlch they have been Imported, Be
fond nil question tho Berkshire Is
tnorp widely diffused in America than
my other breed of swine. Bcrkshlrea
ire found more or less numerously In
every state and territory of tho Union.
Thoy turn the skim milk of Now Eng
land dairies Into most dollclouB pork.
In ult the Mississippi bnsln they aid
tho farmer In marketing his corn with
iddcd profit. In tho sunny south they
help the planter to dig his peanuts.
And in tho Rocky Mountain valley
thoy revel amid alfalfa and pea vine
pastures such as can be grown so well
nowhero else. England Is no longer
distinctly the home of the Berkshire.
It 1b only the placo where they origin
ated and wore first improved. The
scat of Berkshire empire has shlftod
from England to America, nnd It Is
n kingdom that Is likely to remain
until tlmo shall bo no more. There
are good reasons for believing that in
moro lhan one state In tho Union,
thcro will boou be moro pure Berk
shires than in all England. And this
diffusion, plenteous as it (s now, Is
only the advance drops of a shower of
increase that will bring with It bene
diction to the various states In pro
portion to the copiousness with which
It falls upon them. Already no fewer
than 47,543 animals have been record
ed in the records of the American
Berkshire Association, nlthough tho
said association wns not organized
until 1875. At least 5,000 animals nro
now being added every year to' tho
number on record. This of courso docs
notjncludo tho anlmnls recorded In
other records on this continent, as for
instance tho Canadian. Tho relatlvo
increase at tho present tlmo is most
rapid In tho states of Toxas, Missouri,
Illinois, Tennessee New York. In
dlana, Pennsylvania Kentucky, Kan
Mis, Iowa, Massachusottfl, Now Jersey.
Ohio, Loulalnnn nnd Michigan, and
substnntinlly In tho order named. In
nearly all of these states they nro
icarcd In largo numbers both In tho
pure nnd In the grado form, thus evi
dencing their proved adoptability to
u wide range of conditions very dis
similar in churacter. Unlike some of
the other useful breeds of swine they
ore not bunched In a few of the states,
nor nro they hived ns it were In some
sections only of theso states. It would
not be qulto correct perhaps to Bay
that Berkshlrcs thrive equally well In
tho semi-tropical south, tho variable
center and tho cooler north. But the
fact Is very significant that the most
rapid ratio of Increaso In Berkshlres
today In America Is found In the
states of semi-tropical Texas, variable
Missouri and cooler Ontario. The Hist
Is the land of tho peanut, the second
is tho realm of corn and tho third la
tho domain of field roots. It has al
ready been stated that they aro bred
in every stato and territory In tho
Union. And from each of theso they
aro now on record In the registers of
tho American Berkshire Association,
with tho Blnglo exception of tho Btnte
of Wyoming. And nearly every Btate
and territory In tho Union Is repre
sented on the official board of the as
sociation. It is very questionable if the
records of any other swlno breeders'
association In tho United States can
tell a similar story.
In Canada the Berkshire has be
come even moro generally diffused
than in the United States. He Is the
pig of the Dominion. His "descend
ants sln tho pure form nro nearly as'
numerous as those of alt tho other
pure breeds combined, nnd In the
graded form they nre much more nu
merous. Up to February, 1898, 11,052
Berkshlres had been recorded In Can
ada against 11.837 animals of all tho
other breeds combined. And Berk
shire grades In Canada are much moro
numerous relatively than pure Berk
shires. Illlnol Poro Fooil rmuuiliilnn I-nr.
The Illinois Pure Food Commission
has adopted tho following rules apply
ing to products of the dairy:
All milk offered for sale muBt bo
from healthy cowb of clean nnd whole
somo character, unadulterated, free
from preservative, and must contain
not less thasi three per cent of butter
fat. Tho use oMuo word "Cream" on con
densed milk cans. Is deemed prima
faclo evidence of intent to commit
fraud.
Condensed milk should be mado
from milk containing at least tho legal
standard of three per cent butter-fat
and evaporated to one-third or less of
Its original volume.
Condensed Bklm-mllk muBt bo plain
ly labeled as such.
Imitation butter must not be marked
nnd Bold as "Creamery" or "Dairy,"
but each should bo marked plainly
with Its own name, but must be
branded "Imitation Butter." "
Oleomargorlne, butterino and imita
tion butter can be manufactured and
sold under their appropriate nameB
and color when appropriately labeled.
Each tub, package or parcel shall have
distinctly and durably painted,
stamped or marked thereon the true
und appropriate name of such sub
Btance In ordinary bold-faced capital
letters, not less than flvo lines pica.
"Whole milk" cheeso, commonly
miscalled "full cream" cheese, inut
contain at least forty-eight per cent of
fat to total solids.
Butter shall contain nt least 80 per
cent of fat.
"Coffee Cr"eam" shall contain nt least
15 per cent of fat, nnd "whipping
cream" at least 22 per cent.
A largo variety of vegetables, ber

"Grandpa Is not bo well today," an

I don't want him to hear us."
"Oh. It was something awful, posi
tively awful," as oho sat down on tho

doctor said that wo must get him out,
to as to glvo him air and exercise.
After three days' ploadtng I induced
him to go to the baseball with me. He
groaned nnd growled all tho way,
though I had a cushion for him to sit
on and took It to the grand stand and
sat him dovn In tho shade and In a

'"Beg pardon, air,' said tho gentlo
man In tho next soat, 'but that Is not

"Grandpa can scarcely walk a block,
but ho wnnted to throw that man out
of tho grandstand. In tho midst of
It ho stopped his tlrado to Bhout:
' !Nothcr man out That seeker caught
It on tho first bound.' Tho gentleman
wnnted to explain, but grandpa wanted
to bet $1,000 that he knew moro nbout
town ball and four-cornered old cat
than nuy man on the grounds. And
do you know ho took off his coat and
his collar and his necktlo nnd rolled
up his sleeovs and offered the umpire
money to come whero wo were, and
called It right out that ho could whip
tho wholo park full of wildcats and
called tho gentleman names I never
hoard of and dared him to take It
up. You'vo heard that grandpa used

It was plain they didn't bolong la

decided to risk n ride In the elevator.
Approaching the cage, they scrutinized
every part of It carefully, and enter

O'Hare nearly fell off his stool with
surprise, but said, na bo sized up th

ming the door of tho elevator, h
pulled over the lever and the car shot
upward with twice Its usual speod.
In fact, so quickly did tho car ascend
that tho brldo fell to the floor and.
clasping the knees of hor husband,
cried loudly: "I ain't ready yot! t
ain't ready!"
Thoy were the most surprised bridal
couple that ever came up tho road;
and when they had roacho-1 tho fourth
