Fresh oleo, he said, will not only keep | ‘thirty to sixty days, but is far preferable to! Fancid butter worked over with fresh butter in | order to make it salable. Had it not been for oleo, he said, butter would have been 60 cents instead of 35 and 40 this winter, and the ¢lasses would have been shut cut entirely. In this connection a housekeeper writes to Taz Stax complaining of the quality of lard sold many who handle it, and says that if it should be | officially inspected more than half of it would | be condemned. aS Transfers of Keal Estate.
