THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
207 
Crop and Market Notes — Continued. 
to recover penalties amounting to $570,000 for 
violation of the law in selling oleomargarine in 
this State during the past six or seven years. The 
law has been declared constitutional by the 
United States Supreme Court, hence the suits are 
now to be pushed. 
There were exported from San Francisco, 411,- 
059 pounds of butter, valued at $71,181 in 1895, and 
444,059 pounds valued at $90,088 in 1894. Cheese 
in 1895,271,101 pounds; in 1894,221,237 pounds. 
The exports were to the following countries: Brit¬ 
ish Columbia, Hawaiian Islands, Japan, China, 
Hongkong, French Oceanica, Mexico, Guate¬ 
mala, Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Hon¬ 
duras, etc. The largest shipments were to 
British Columbia, Hawaiian Islands, Japan and 
Mexico. 
A Staten Island farmer has just been convicted 
and fined for selling oleomargarine. He supplied 
hotels and private families with “ butter ” from 
his own dairy. But one of the inspectors found 
some oleomargarine on the table of one of the 
best hotels, and traced it to this farmer. He had 
been buying oleomargarine in prints, and palm¬ 
ing it off on his customers as genuine butter. He 
was heavily fined, and the judge who sentenced 
him, said that all that saved him from imprison¬ 
ment, also, was his age. 
The New York Legislature is again tinkering 
the game laws. Amendments have been intro¬ 
duced changing existing laws including the re¬ 
peal of Section 249 which allowed the sale of all 
descriptions of game provided they were killed 
at least 300 miles from New York State bound¬ 
aries; also provided that ruffed grouse or part¬ 
ridges, woodcock, gray, black and fox squirrels 
may be lawfully killed only between October 1 and 
December 10, and hare, quail, European part¬ 
ridges, pheasants and pinnated grouse from Oc¬ 
tober 25 to December 10.
