WORLD'S OLDEST BUTTER. J ax Which Was Bafted on a JTebraxka - Tarm Fifty Tsars Ago Just Brought to Xight. The age of batter has always been fruitful theme for the would-be humor 1st, but the most exaggerated statement hardly exceeds the actual facts con cerning some butter on exhibitiea in San Diege. Gal. Mrs. M. A. Becatur, mother of J. W Thompson, manager of the Postal Tel egraph company in tEart.eity, is in re ceipt of a sample Jar of butter made in 1858. Fifty years ago Mrs. Decatur's tieme was on a Nebraska farm near Decatur. Among other natural advantages of the farm was a never-failing spring, the cool shallow of which made an ideal place for the storage of milk and but ter. At various times small jars of butter that were placed in the spring mysteriously -disappeared, and the In dlans, who were numerous at that time, were credited with having appro priated them. The mystery was solved, however, when a large Jar of butter became imbedded in the sandy bottom of the Bpring, and in spite of all efforts to recover it sank frsm sight and was given up for lost Mime passed, the homestead was given into other hands, and the spring fell tnto disuse. A few days ago a party of hunters discovered on 'the old farm the rim of a buried jar, which they fondly hoped might be a "pot of gold." but which proved, when unearthed, to be the long-lost jar of butter. When exposed to the air the jar crumbled to dust, but the butter remained intact Although covered with green mold, the main body of the butter was of the original color and consistency. A small piece was sent to Mrs. De catur, while the large part has been placed in cold storage, and no doubt will find its way to the St Louis expo sition as the oldest butter in the world. BUTTER A GOOD MEDICINE. It 3s' the Most Delicate of Fatty Sub- -atancea and Quite as Valuable . as Cod liver OIL (Butter is so common a commodity that people use it and scarcely ever think what wonderful value lies at their hand in the parts of dainty yellow cream fat, says the American Cheese maker. Of course, they know that it is useful in many branches of cookery. and that without its aid the table would be bare of its thinly rolled bread and butter, its delicate cakelets, and its other accessories. Beyond these uses the value of butter is a thing only vaguely thought of. But this delicate jfat Us as valuable as the dearer cod liver oil for weakly, thin people, and doctors have frequently recommended theceating of many thin slices of bread thickly spread with butter as a means or pleasantly taking into the bodily tissues one of the purest forma of fat it is possible to get IButter is a carbon, and aTi excess of rt is; stored up as fat in the body. It gives energy and power to work to those who -eat heartily of it So it is not wonomy at table to spare the but ter, even to the healthy folk. For any one afflicted with consumption butter cookery, if plenty of fat can bo digest ed, is one of the best ways of curing the disease If it is in its early stages or of keeping it at bay if advanced. Butter is not a simple fat, composed of merely one sort It is a mixture of no leas than seven different sorts of fats, and no more complex oil can be taken than this is. CORE FOR A JUMPING COW.

Fasten the rope to the pole so when the cow lifts her head and walks along the back end of the pole will drag on the ground and the forward end will lift up. yhen she comes to the fence the end of the pole will run under the fence and hold her head down; aha cannot Juaap. Ru ral New Yorker. Cruelty to Veal Calve. I want to protest against the cruelty j practiced in shipping live veal calves j to market. They are taken to the calf ,' pen at the railroad station early in ths morning sometimes, and in the coldesj weather left there exposed for several hours, often until late in the afternoon. Then they are hustled into the car and sent to some distant city, there to i hunger and shiver with cold several days longer. Their mouths are some : times tied shut to keep them, from making a noise. I know of no other ! animal so shamefully treated. It is heart of steel, when hear their cries. Af such suffering they become feverish and their meat cannot be wholesome. It la much mora humane to hogdre6s them and ship their carcasses. This can easily be done in cool weather.
