CATTLE RAISING.
Hew ttae Bulne In ITCaamge fa
Wyoming and (he Profit ia It
A representative of the Tribune had
an interesting conversation yesterday
with Mr. William Denison, who is in the
city, having come directly from his ranch
in Wyoming Territory with a shipment
of cattle, ana learning the following facts
which will be of interest to the public:
His ranch is is on the Platte River, in
Carbon County, forty miles south of the
Union Pacific Railroad and 150 miles
west of Chevenne, and 8,000 feet above the
sea level. The run is fifty miles, more
or less, in extent, and is used in common
by some eleven or twelve ranchers, who
own an aggregate of about 30,000 head
of cattle. Theso men, some of them with
families, live in log cabins more or less
capacious and comfortable, in different
parts of the run, each house having its
corral and most of them a garden and
outbuildings. The cattle, watched by
mounted herders or "cowboys," wander
at will over the run, living on the grass,
which, thouch a sorrv aoolouv in the eves
of an illiuoisan,is found to be amply suf
flcient for their wants. The winters an?
severe, and a large amount of snow falls.
It is, however, dry snow, and blows off,
and the cattle subsist on the dry grass,
which greatly resembles hay in appear
ance. In the spring all the ranchmen with
their herders assemble and go over the
entire range for the purpose of branding
the cal ves. About 5,000 cattle are driven
together each day and corraled. The
corral is a large inclosure fenced in with
pine logs put together very strongly and
capable of resisting any commotion which
may arise among the cattle. Each ranch
man then brands the calf which is follow
ing a cow bearing his brand. It is taken
for granted that the calf is his property,
and if a caff bearing another man's
brand is found following the cow the
matter is remedied by the owner of the
brand handing over an unbranded calf,
which is thereupon branded with the
first man's brand, and the matter is set
tled. Each man consults his own fancy as to
his brand, and a large variety may be
ieen, including letters, harness, knives,
cups, arrowheads, etc. Each ranchman
has also an ear-mark, by which he
distinguishes his cattle when their
winter coat of hair renders the
brand undistinguishable. The same va
riety is soen in earmarks us in brands.

close to the head is not an uncommon
nark. The branding is done with a hot
iron, generally placed well forward on
the left side, about six inches from the
backbone. In this way the whole range
ia gone over until the branding is fin
ished, the men living in tents and sub
sisting on beef and what game comes in
their way.
The cattle are active and run rapidly.
A stampede is a curious occurrence and
apt to be serious, if not projwrly man
aged. The stumbling of a horse or any
unusual noise may cause it, and the cat
tle once started will run until exhausted,
turning aside for nothing and demolish
ing anything which happens to be in
their course. When a stampede occurs,
the herdsman immediately rides to the
aide of the herd near the head and turns
the cattle gradually, eventually bringing
them to the point ut which they started,
and keeps up the process until the herd
it exhausted and stops. Even when
turned in this manner the cattle fre
quently run from ten to twenty miles
before halting.
The cattle are usually shipped to mar
ket in the fall, at which time the "round
up" occurs. In this, as in the branding,
all the ranchmen join, each man fur
nishing his quota of herders. The pro
Sartiou is about one herder to 500 cattle.
. he latter are gathered in immense
herds and the cattle destined for ship
ment picked out. A man mounted on a
trained horse rides into the drove and
ecksoutasteer. The horse then fol
ws the auimal, turning it to the right
or left and keying it always headed for
the outside of the "herd. When the cat
tle for shipment are collected they are
driven in one large herd to the railroad,
and are guarded day and night by
mounted herdsmen. About twenty are
ut in a car, and the freight is $7 per
ead. It costs about 1 per head to feed
tliem on the way, and the trip consumes
even days.
The use of dogs is forbidden by law,
and the herdsman relies entirely upon
himself and his horse to dn the wm-V
The horses used are Indian ponies, and
are valuable in proportion to their
knowledge of the business. They are
fast and hardy, frequently traveling
ui turn seventy nines in a aay. A
large, fast, and well trained pony is
worth $150, and they range in price
from that amount down to 850. Each
man has from four to six horse, and
uses each on the average half a day
in two days. In the "round-up a
herder watches the drove of horses night
and day and drives them into
camp every morning at 4 o'clock, the
herders being in the saddle bv sunrise.
Many of the ponies are "buckers," and
will unseat the most skillful rider, a man
who is able to stick on an adept "bucker"
being exceedingly rare. A "bucker"
jumps up six feet or so into the air, land
ing stiff on his fore feet, and repeats the
operation so rapidly that the jumps can
hardly be counted, until the rider ia
unseated and flung headlong.
The herders are paid from 100 to
25 per month, according to their skill
with the lasso. It is of Sic "lassoer" as
it is of the poet "nascilur sal non fit."
Almost any man can learn to lasso a steer
by the horns or throw the loop over a
horse's head, but only a man born to the
business can catch a steer by the leg,
horse and steer on the dead run. When
the lasso is thrown the "cowboy" coils
the end around the pommel of his saddle,
the pony braces himself, and when the
rope tightens the steer usually measures
his length upon the ground. The cow
boys are a hard-working set of men, and,
at least in the locality described, very
decent fellows. One of Mr. Denison's
bys is a graduate of Bowdoin College,
and intends to practice law. No amu
are carried and there is no cattle-stealing.
Cattle are shipped to market when
flute yean old; bit calves are wortk fit
atpresent, on the range. The proportion
of cows in the herd is about one-fourth,
and the natural increase is tc efore large
and profitable. Speculate are often
seen on the range, buying p cattle and
shipping them to market; I t the length
of time consumed in gctt g the cattle
to their destination makes the risk con
siderable. In the legitimate ousiness the
risk is probably less than in any other
mode of investing capital. There is no
disease as yet, no stealing, and the risk of
a very severe winter is the only one which
causes the cattle men much trouble.
The cattle men subsist, in a large
measure, during all seasons of the year
upon game, which is present in great
variety and abundance at this season.
Antelope form the main diet, as they
roam in herds of from twenty-five to 100.
Deer, elk, and other large game are abun
dant, but are more timid and harder to
get The country is quiet and the popu
lation law-abiding. From the very nature
of things there is no attraction for the
loafer and the blackguard. Every man
works and works hard, and with proper
enererv and care "there's millions in it"
Cfiicaqo Tribune.
The Cat Bird.
Though the cat bird is accused oi
many atrocities, I will protect him, in
spite of the real facts, on account of hit
remarkable song and his quaint and orig
inal ways. It is said he will permit no
other birds to build their nests near
his own haunt He is quarrelsome
and beats them off, and like the blue-
'ay often devours the eggs of small
(irda and destroys their nests. This
nefarious work is not probably a regular
Sractice; there is reason to believe he
estroys only the eggs and nests which
are placed too near his own domicile.
The cat bird is choice of his situation,
and seldom frequents the high grounds
which are chosen by the red thrush. He
prefers a thicket in low, swampy places,
and cares not though it be at the foot of
a garden; for the presence of man when
employed in rural toil does not seem to
annoy him. Birds very readily distin
guish a man at work from an idle man or
gunner. Cat birds are almost exclu
sively insectivorous, seldom taking fari
naceous substances except in very small
quantities. Some young birds of this
species which I reared in a cage dird of
apoplexy soon after they hau obtained
their growth, from no cause that I could
divine except the injury received from a
partly farinaceous diet Yet the cat
bird is known to be fond of the seedB of
grasses.
The old prejudice once so general
against the cat bird seems attributable in
part to its mewing habit, increased by
the absurd notion that it plundered the
cornfield. The most careful investi
gators of the fowl of birds, by examining
their crops, have discovered "great quan
tities of insects, but none- of the cereal
grains among the substances eaten by the
cat bird. At the present time very
little of this old prejudice remains; the
cat bird is now regarded as the farmer's
benefactor, and it has become a favorite
in some neighlwrhoods. It was formerly
a very general practice to rear this bird
in captivity, when it became very amus
ing from its odd ways and imitative
habits.
I have never been convinced, from my
own observation, that the cat bird in
his wild state is a mocker. I admit
the fact on the authority of
others. The notes of several species
which he often imperfectly utters
seem to me to be only parts of his gen
eral medlev. His sons resembles that of
the red thruh, though inferior to it. He
has more rasping and fewer guttural
sounds than his congener, and less vol
ume. No one would attempt to repre
sent his notes on the gamut, for they are
more like speech than music. The aong
hardly admits of description; but it is
not without considerable merit. I have
occasionally heard an individual songster
which was not much inferior to a red
thrush.
All persons listen with nlensurn in thm
song of the cat bird, but they are fortu
nate who nave otten beard it delivered
continuously. The fault of the bird aa
a songster is that he is rarely persistent
He utters a short occasional strain, then
Siuses pernaps nve or even ten minutes,
ut when we are strolling in a woodpath
through a half-wooded swamp, bordered
with azaleas and wild roses, while the
open spaces are bright with golden alex
anders, it is delightful to hear these oc
casional strains and to observe how at
tentively the bird watches our move
ments. We hear none of the red thrush's
peculiar duplications of certain notes;
but if we suppose him to be talking, he
speaks more rapidly and uses longer
phrases than the red thrush. It is as if
he said with great rapidity, "What are
ye looking after? Take what you want
and be off. Mind your own business.
This place belongs to me and to nobody
else." The bird makes a pause between
each of these sentences, occasionally in
terposing a few lisping orwhistling notes.
" The restless ways of the cat bird ex
cite very general attention. I never saw
one remain still even for half a minute.
His restlessness is probably the cause of
his singing so seldom continuously. Heia

Tke Lacquer Trees of Japaa.
The Rhus vernicifera, the well-known
lacquer tree of Japan, is met with all
over the main island, and also in smaller
quantities inKiushiu andShikoku, but it
is from Tokio northward that it princi
pally flourishes, growing freely on moun
tains as well asm the plains, thus indica
ting that moderate climate suits the tree
better than a very warm one. Since
early days the cultivation of the tree has
been encouraged by the Government,
and as the lacquer industry increased
plantations were made in every province
and district The lacquer tree can be
Sropagated bv 'seed sown at the end of
anuary or the beginning of February.
The first year the seedlings reach a height
of from ten inches to one foot The
following spring the young trees are
transplanted about six feet apart, and in
ten years an" average tree should be ten
feet high, the diameter of its trunk two
and a half inches to three inches, and its
yield of lacquer sufficient to fill a three
ounce bottle. A more speedy method is,
however, generally adopted. The roots
of a vigorous young tree are taken, and
pieces six inches long and the thickness
of a finger are planted out in a slanting
direction a few inches apart, one inch
being left exposed above the ground.
This takes place at the end of February
and through March, according to the
climate of the locality. These cuttings
throw a strong shoot off from eighteen to
twenty inches the first year, and are
likewise planted out the followingspring.
Under equally favorable circumstances
these trees would in ten years be nearly
twenty-five per cent larger in girth, some
two or three feet higher, and would yield
nearly half as much more sap than the
trees raised from seed.
It has not hitherto been the custom to
bestow any special care on the trees after
planting them out; but in cases where
leaf or other manure has been applied
they are much finer. Of late years hill
sides and waste grounds alone have been
ased for lacquer plantations, as, owing to
the rise in the price of cereals and farm
produce generally, it does not pay the
tamers to have their land cumbered with
trees. Those that have been hitherto
planted along the borders of the fields
are being rapidly used and uprooted, and,
where practicable, mulberry trees planted
instead, with a view to rearing silk
worms. Nevertheless, as a good work
man is expected during the season to tap
an average of 1,000 trees ten years old:,
and as the province of Yechizen alone
sends out aboutjl,500 "tappers" yearly to
the various lacquer districts, it will be
seen that an immense production annual
ly takes place, stimulated, doubtless, by
the demand for cheap lacquered articles
abroad. It should also be mentioned that
to remedy tho possible exhaustion of the
supply, and in view of the great
rise which, has taaen place in
the price of lacquer, several companies
are being projected to plant waste lands
with the tree. A ten-year-old tree, which
some five years ago only cost from one
to two sen, now costs ten sen, which,
allowing even for the depreciation in the
value of the paper currency, Bhows a rise
of about 500fper cent. The best trans
parent lacquer comes from the districts
of Tsugarn, Nanibu, Akita, and Aidzu.
there are some districts the laquer ob
tained from which is best for certain
kinds of work, but is not so well adapted
for others. The kind which is used for
transparent lacquer is mixed in large
tubs to insure a uniform quality, and
being allowed to stand for some time
say a week or ten days the best por
tion, which is ordinarily seventy per
cent, of the whole, is skimmed off. This
is used for Nashiji and Shu lacquer,
while the remainder is used for making
interior mixtures, such as Jonana, &c.
Almost all the various classes of lacquer
are similarly dealt with to insure uni
formity, as some qualities dry much
quicker and are better than others, and
the slow-drying qualities would other
wise remain unsold. The whole country-produces
at present, on an average
fabm 30,000 to 35,000 tubs per annum
each tub being about four gallons ca
pacity. Some seventy or eighty per
cent, of this total amount is produced
from Tokio northward. Nearly one-half
of the lacquer produced is sent to the
Osaka market, where it is prepared as
required and resold all over the western

The Gold-Seeker.
ThtDantzigcr Zeitung relates a curious
anecdote of superstition which prevails
among the peat-cutters of Littau. In
the great peat-fields at Niederung, where
boggy places extend in long lines, the
WilTo the Wisp, or Irrlichter (Wander
ing Light), as it is called in Germany, is
often seen. The gaseous miasma in this
district gives the uncanny light a re
markable brilliancy. It is the fervid be
lief of the Littauer, in spite of the
schoolmasters, that wherever the wander
ing fire is kindled, there the devil is
busy smelting the gold which he pavs to
those human Deings who will sell them
selves to him. If any person will lay a
pair of slippers, with their soles upward,
upon the spot where the light is kindled,
the power of the devil over the gold is
immediately broken ; he is compelled to
leave it, the light is extinguished, and
the fortunate owner of the slippers can
at once dig for the gold., and when he
finds it, appropriate it to his own use
without sin and without danger.
A few days ago, accordingto a Dantzip
paper, a Littauer peasant named Eigen
karthner saw one of the errant lights, or,
as he would have expressed it, caught
the devil at work, in one of his own peat
bogs. He seized a pair of slippers rushed
out of his house and followed the light
The light moved further and further, and
the peasant, forgetting everything else in
his determination to spoil Satan of his
cold hurried onward and onward, until
he stuck in a deep boggy slough and was
drowned. Early the next morning his
lifeless corpse was dragged out of the
sludge. It was only discovered by the
accident that his cap was floating upon
the surface. London Globe.

and southern provinces, the remaining
portion being used up locally and in
Tokio. The usual age at which a tree is
tapped is sixteen years, but in some
cases a tree is tapped when only three or
four years old. The best lacquer for
transparent varnish is obtained from
trees from 100 to 200 years old, as their
nap has more body, and is more glu
tinous. The first tapping takes place
about the beginning of June. The
standard number of trees allotted to a
tapper for the season is 1,000 presuming
them to be about ten years old (the size
of the small specimen), about 800 of the
size of the large specimen, and so on, less
and less according to the size of the
trees. Having cleared away the grass
from the roots, the workman makes the
round of his allotted trees, marking each
with small notches about half an inch
long. The first of these notches is about
six inches from the bottom of the tree on
the right-hand side; the next one "hand
stretch higher up on the left
hand side; the next one "hand stretch"
higher on the right, and so on, alter
nately as far as the workman can reach.
These preliminary markings, which are
to determine all the preliminary places
for subsequent tapping, take fully four
days, befog at the rate of 250 trees'a day.
The tapper then goes round provided
with the bark scraper, the ordinary
scraping sickle, the Summer spatula, and
the pot to hold the lacquer, and
first smoothing the bark where
required, gives one cut above and one
cut below the two lower marks, and
one cut above the remainder of the other
marks, the cut being in each case about
one and a half inches long. After giving
the cut the instrument is reversed ana
the knife is run along the incision to in
sure the bark being entirely cutthrough,
This process is repeated every four days,
each incision being made a little longer
tkan the preceding one, up to the fifth
tapping, inclusive, after which the re
maining incisions are made of the same
length. At each round, when all the
requisite incisions have been made on the
tree, the workman gathers the sap which
has exuded with the spatula, beginning
at the two lowest incisions, and so on to
the uppermost cut Twenty-five is con
sidered the normal number of cuts which,
at the rate of one incision at each place
every four days, occupy 100 working
days, and allowing for some twenty days
of rain, during which the sap cannot be
drawn, the season is brought to a close
by the end of September. When the
full number of incisions has been given,
the workman gives an extra long cut
under all the initial notches on each tree
to obtain the sap which has collected
there, and another above the uppermost
cut of each set These incisions are
called Ura-me (back-marks). The sap
obtained from the first five cuts above
each notch is poor, containing, as it does,
a large proportion of water; the middle
fifteen cuts produce the best sap, and the
sap obtained from the last five incisions
is poor, and lacks consistency. Again,
the sap obtained from the Ura-me (back
marks) and Tome (finishing) cuts is very
good, and dries quickly. . The sap from
the first twentv-nve cuts is mixed and
sold together, but the Ura-me and Tome
sap is almost always mixed and sold sep
arately. The operations above described kill
the tree in one season, but frequently
the tree is made to last two years or more
by giving only half the number of in
cisions, and reserving the Ura-me and
Tome outs for the final year. The sap
obtained the second and following years
is, however, of an inferior quality, and

Modern Manufacture of Shoes.
From 1855 dates the downfall of the
shop and "kit." The sewing" machine
was introduced in 18G2, and machine
made shoes are the order of the dav. The
difference in time between the old and
new way is remarkable. The machine
made shoe is, as a matter of necessity, a
double soled shoe, ami hence took 'the
place, in a great degree, of the old hand
made "welt" This- hand-made, welted
snoe requirea two seams, the inner seam,
or tho sewing-in of the welt and upper,
and the "stitching" or sewing together of
the welt and the outer sole. The aver
age time required in sewing each of thess
seams was not less than fifteen minutes,
or half an hour for each shoe, or an hour
for each pair. The machine, by sawing
directly through the inner sole, upper,
and outer sole, substituted one seam for
two; and when it was worked by
"power," such was the expedition of its
movements that eighty pair an hour have
been stitched upon it, giving less than
twenty-three seconds to each shoe. The
time saved in cutting soles is equally
wonderful. Thirty years ago sole leather
was almost altogether cut by hand. A
man was only able to cut a few sides in a
day, and no care was taken to be very
exact. The soles were rounded off to the
last by the workman. Now, with tho
machines, 150 sides can be cut in a day,
and every sole will be exactly the same
size; and with the dieing-machine sixty
or seventy cases can be died out exactly
ine snape or tue last, me saving m
time and stock amounts to many hun
dreds per week. Or if the side's have
been cut into strips, one of these ma
chines can cut 250 sides per day against
ten that a smart, old-time worker could
do.
The central part of Lynn is do voted
to the large manufactories, where the
shoe can be watched from the side to the
case, and where in the old shop one man
did the work, now a shoe passes through
nearly fifty hands before completion.
Cutting the soles is the first operation.
and is done by the above-mentioned ma
chine with dies. Thewholesideislaidout
upon a large table, the top of which is
level within the bed of a machine
long enough to take in its entire length,
so that the workman can place the die
on any portion of the side, and then, bys
treadle movement, instantaneously bring
down a bar with sufficient force to cu
out the sole. This may be done as rap
idly as the operator can place the die.
but good judgment is required in select
ing the thickest and most solid parts oi
the leather for outsoles, the thinner and
poorer portions being used for insoles and
heels. Smaller machines of the same
style are used for cutting out the taps,
counters, and heel lifts, as these are cut
from the parts of the side left after all
the outsoles possible have been cut there
from, the idea in each instance being so
to place the dies on tho stock as to avoid
waste. The soles are now in the hands
of the sorter, and have been through
three hands the stripper, sole-cutter,
sorter and then comes the tier-up. The
upper stock is cut in what is called the
cutting-room, and the hands consist of (1)
the outside cutter; (2) lining cutter; (3)
trimming cutter, and (4) dier-out This
is in most cases hand work, and in men's
boots and shoes entirely so, but the Lynn
manufactories almost entirely produce
ladies' shoes. The uppers are now taken
to the stitching room, where they pass (5)
into the hands of the lining-maker, then
(6) the closer, (7) steam rubber, (8) back

are now taken to the lasting or finishing
room. As we have already seen, the
bottom stock has passed through four
processes, ending with the tier-up. These,
added to the sixteen through which the
uppers have passed, make twenty before
they reach the hands of the stock-fitter.
From this point the process goes on (21)

men's boots and shoes, now comes the
"lasting," or the drawing of the upper
snugly and evenly over the last,
so that it will fit closely
in all parts, and tiie edges just
lap over the outer edge of the insole, all
temporarily fastened until the outsole
can be attached. This is com monly done
by hand, the workman drawing the
leather over with pincers and tackimrit
in place. To do this work by machine
is a task the solution of which has been
sought by mechanics and inventors for
many years, but no machine for the pur
pose has yet been introduced which has
met with any considerable degree of
favor from manufacturers. There is a
lasting machine, but it is susceptible of
improvement. Returning to the ladies'
shoe, the next person to receive it is the
(20) trimmer; then the setter, liner, nailer,
shaver, buffer, burnisher, channeller, and
channel-turner, and several other minor
parts. The shoes finally reach the hands
of a packer, and the amount of capital

ductor on the Northern Pacific Railroad,
triveling from Faigo to Bismarck.
"At Jamestown," courteously replied
the conductor.
"Get there at midnight, I suppose,"
grunted the passenger.
"At 12:22," answered the conductor.
"Can't you stop somewhere and let me
get a cracker?"
"Not very well, sir. There are no op
portunities between here and Jim
town." Finding himself treated in such a gen
tlemanly manner, Ihe tourist turned
loose and curbed the road fiom St. Paul
to Glendine Creek, and after finishing his
dinner he took in the Duluth branch and
wound up with the officers and trainmen,
consigning the whole business to bitter
ness and wrath eternal. The conductor
made everv effort to pacifv him, but his
exertions only stimulated the volume of
abuse until the train stopped at Bis
marck. "Can I sec you a moment," asked the
conductor, taking the tourist by the
elbow and leading him to the
quadrangle back of the Sheridan
House. " You don't seem to under
stand this railroad system. Now. here's
Duluth 1" and he spanged the tourist one
in the eye. "And here's St. Paul!"
planting his fist with terrible force into
the other optic. "The two lines meet
here at Brainerd!" which he mapped out
on the bridge of the passenger's nose.
"Then the trunk line runs along to Jim
town, where you get your dinner!" aud
he brought him a terrific one on the
mouth. "From there to Bismarck is only
a short run!" planting a crusher on the
victim's chin, "and there you are!" land
ing him in a puddle, doubled up 1:!jc a
stomach ache, and howling for mercy.
"You will notice that the vigilant offi
cials are carefully scanning all points of
the road!" and he marched up and down
his prostrate student, who was now yell
ing for help.
"What's the matter, Jim?" inquired a
friend who had been attracted by the
controversy.
"Showiug a bloke the advantage of our
railroads over the Eastern outfit, 'replied
the conductor. "They never explain
things where he lives, and I'm fixing it
for him so he won't feel like grumbling
next time he travels over our line. Wait
till I point out the difference between
the school sections and the railroad

But the tourist had eeled out of the pud

the disgust of the conductor aud his

The New York Times thinks that
there is a certain kind of society cere
mony of a printed character which has
escaped Herbert fc'pencer's keen analysis.
There is really no necessity for it save
that which arises from the greed of the
stationer. The modern purveyor of ele
gantly painted papers might in some re
spects be classed with the deservedly
abused plumber. Perhaps there is some
necessity for the latter, whereas there is
very little for the former. The era of
the deliriously combined monograms
having passed away for the time being,
very probably because no one could
understand them, note-paper is now be
ing ornamented in the most curious way.
The printed cards necessary for a wed
ding of to-day are of the most compli
cated character. Sometimes there are as
many as six different pieces of pasteboard,
each one in its separate envelop, all
enclosed in a big one. The sortini; out
of this mass of cards shows, first, the
names ol the lather and mother of the
bride; then that of the parents of the
groom. Then conies the bride's card
separate as Miss , and thatof thegroom.
Next the invitation to the marriage and
another card stating when Mr. ana Mrs.
are to be at home. The last station
ery load which breaks the camel's back
is a card of the clergyman who is to marry
the people. We are pleased to stite,
however, that an eflbrt made this spring
to add the cards of the bridesmaids with
those of the groom's best friends, signally
failed.
If forjoyoufloccasions these eventsbring
money to the stationer, when a death
takes place he has heretofore shown no
desire to divide with the undertaker.
There is, however, a most absurd custom,
English of its kind, which might stand a
chance of transplantation into New York.
In England to-day when a man or woman
dies, those attending the funeral receive,
after a few days, a card from the family
of the deceased which reads as follows:
"Mr. and Mrs. return thanks for
kind sympathy and condolence." This
is. indeed, the pertection ol snobbishness.

Cider is something that costs but very
little where orchards are large and fruits
plentiful, as in its manufacture mnybe
used much fruit that is unsalable. The
best apples pay better when barreled and
sent oil", but there are many old seedling
trees that produce nothiug fit for eating"
but whose fruit makes good cider. The
crab apples are best for good cider, and in
some sections are used for this purpose
entirely. While it is not necessary to
use the best apples, yet good, sound, ripe
ones only should be used. They should
be caret ully assorted, wiped clean and
dry, and every unsound one discarded.
The old method of preparing a bulky
press in the orchard, to be left standing
until next season, should be done away
with, for we now have crushers and
press that do the work in a cleaner,
better, and mora economical manner,
their cost being small compared with
their effectiveness. As full directions
for making cider accompany them it is
unnecessary to go into details; but it is
not every one who knows how to keep
cider for any length of time. In order to
do this the cider should be strained into
clean barrels and immediately placed
under shelter. It should ferment until
ready for storing away if it is desired to
be a little "hard," but if preferred sweet
it should not ferment. To pre
vent fermentation at any time, first
place the cider in a barrel from which
a stave of the head has been removed,
care being tak'en to leave a space of
about ten inches between the top and the
cider. Now place on the eider a deep
block of wood, which, of course, floats,
and on this place half a pound of sul
phur. Set fire to it, close up tightly as
soon as you are sure the sulphur is burn
ing and leave it closed for an hour. Re
peat this several times during the day by
igniting the unburnt sulphur, and when
the process is over put the cider in the
barrel intended for it ow fill the bar
rel with more cider and treat in the same
manner, filling nearly full the barrel pre
viously used. The operation is this:
Sulphureous acid gas is formed, which
the cider absorbs. This gas instantly ar
rests all fermentation and destroys fungus,
the consequence being a good, sweet
article for almost an indefinite time.
The sulphur gas is perfectly harmlessand
imparts no unpleasant taste. To make
apple butter, the cider should be used aa
it comes directly from the press, as the
sweeter the better, and porcelain-lined
pots are best, as brass aud iron often
cause metallic precipitation from the
union of the acid of the cider (malic)
with the metal. This is partially
avoided when the cider is very fresh, yet
there is danger at all times. Exposure
to'the air allows cider to absorb oxygen,
which forms alcohol. Further exposure
admits more oxygen and we have vin
egar. After awhile the vinegar will be
changed by the oxygen into carbonic
acid and water, which is a return to its
primitive condition before entering the
apple. All the acids of fruits, whether
tartaric, citric or malic, are finally turned
into carbonic acid, and the decomposi
tion of cider is only the progress of
changes that are ever taking place in all
substances formed by the union of car
bon, oxygen and hydrogen in fruits, for
the same change takes place among the
expressed juices of blackberries, currants,
and even the .vegetables. Sugar added
to cider strengthens it in alcohol by
adding more carbon. Boston Star.
