The story is weli known of the clever grocer, who when he got in a firkin of batter, used to saw 1t in half and label one half 20 cents and the other 25 cents, customers tasted and looked knowing, and generally came to the conciusion that for the sake of 5 cents they had better take the best, and 5 firkins went off’ at twentv-five cents a pound for every one that was sold twenty cents, The fact is, there | such a quantity of infe on the market that people have got used toit.

The at majority of consumers are content if they get butter devoid of strong taste or smell, hence the openming for butterine, which is tree from bad odor and hasno unpleas ste, or ruther very little taste of any But the remedy lies largely in the hands of the butter producer. ' In th fivst place every effort should be to manufactue a good article, and market it in att e shape. Sceondly, those who ean ake good butter should market where such products are appreciated. If the local dealer pays one price for all butter, vegardless of quality, the butter-maker should transfer s busi- ness to some dealer more nearly abrenst with the times. The “one-price” dealer will thus only get the inferior article, and he will soon change hispolicy.
