Prof. L, B. Arnold has been lecturing, 
with much commendation, in England. He 
finds the butter in the Islnud of Jersey better 
than English butter, but so low-flavored as to 
be a disappointment. Genuine butterine— 
hog’s fat and annatto—competes with it there 
under its genuine name. 
Reports multiply Hint Nellie Grant Sarto,*
