The Way It Is 8old, Pure and Sweet, In Cambridge, England. Id Cambridge, England, butter la old by the yard For generations it has been the practice of Cambridge shire dairy folk to roll their butter Into lengths, each length measuring a yard and weighing a pound. Deftly wrap ped In strips of clean white cloth, the cylindrical rolls are packed In long, narrow baskets made for the purpose and thus conveyed to market The butter women who, in white linen aprons and sleeves, preside over the tails in the market hive no need of weights or scales for dispensing their wares. Constant practice and ex perienced eyes enable them with a stroke of the knife to divide a yard of butter Into halves or quarters with almost mathematical exactness. The university people are the chief buyers of this curiosity shaped prod uct In addition to being famed for Its purity and sweetness Cambridge "yard butter" Is eminently adapted for being served to the students In the dally commons. Cut in conveniently lied plecesisnd accompanied by a loaf of the best wheat bread, a stated por tion Is sent round every morning to the rooms of the undergraduates for use at breakfast and tea.

Many of them form good sized streams from the start, and some of them are navigable. The largest spring In the state, and one of the largest and prob ably the best known In the United States, is Silver spring, which Is lo cated six miles east of Ocala. This spring forms the source of the Ok lawha river, a tributary of the Bt Johns, and steamboats traversing the river enter the spring basin, which has an area of several acres. The water Is from twenty-five to thirty feet deep and Is wonderfully clear, appearing ab solutely devoid of color. Minneapolis Journal.

Wyoming Owner Ixses 800 Head In Heavy Rain Storm. A correspondent writing from Cas per, wyo., to tne cneyenne xnoune, says of a serious loss of sheep in that vicinity: The only serious loss of sheep In this vicinity during the past winter Is reported by Robert Crosswalte, who recently sheared a band near Casper. Tho sheep were In poor condition and were caught In a heavy rain storm while on their bed ground. The band consisted of about 1800 head and were bedded lir a narrow draw at the bottom of a range of hills. The rain water drained Into the draw flooding the ground and the efforts of the herder and campmover to move the sheep out of the pocket were unavailing. The animals hud dling together In the draw In which the water was rapidly rising. A little over half of the band was saved, the remainder, about eight hundred head, being drowned. Mr. Crosswalte also reports the only sale of wool thus far reported In the state. He consigned the clip from tho above mentioned band, about 13,000 pounds, to a Chicago house to bo sold on commission, the firm ndvnnclng 10 cents per pound on the shipment, which was something less than a carload. There have been but few other losses reported In this vicinity, due In the main to severe frosty nights fol lowing heavy rains upon shorn sheep. The losses have been so distributed among the sheepmen that the indi vidual loss Is Insignificant, the sheep which succumbed being the poorest of the flocks. James S.
