The Science of Aduheirohon.
There are certain stages in fraud at
which the public stops condemning the
actor, and are lost in admiration at his au
dacity. Certain of the soap-Makers have
passed the stage of secrete adulteration,
and actually glory in their skill in palming
utr upon an innocent and unsusoecting
public articles which are soap only in the
name. .
At the very outset of our investigations
we are met by the tact that a pound of
soap weighs but 12 ounces. This is said
tai have first been discovered by an enter—
prising New York firm, whim sold to the
grocers 75 the, of soap neatly crit into
100 pieces. They did nat wish to under
sell th friends nor to commit any fraud
they merely explained to the grocer how
he could sell a pound of soap foiless than
his neighbor, and thus secure trade.—
' This is a comparatively new fraud, and
one that has in a measure cared itself,
because the price corresponds now to the
weight.
An older idea than this is adulteration
with water. Other things being equal,
the man is most successful in the busi—
ness who can incorporata the most water
In the soap and still have it retain its
firm. This adulteration can easily be
detected by drying it, first at a gentle
heat and at 212 degrees F, having pre—
viously frduced the soup to fine shavings.
The next adulteration, and one which
has ninny defenders, is the use of rosin
instead 4-f fat in the manufacture of soap.
This use of rosin seems to have arisen in
the Orin plat from the fact that rosin
was cheap and alit., be readily mixed
with the soap. A rosin soap is first made
by dissolving the rosin in sal soda or
caustic soda, and then mixing the soap
thus form,•d with ordinary tallow soap.—
Some of the midi expert at this business
have succ&ded in thus introducing 75
per cent_ of rosin to 25 per cent.of tallow.
This, with rosin and sal soda about 2i
cents per pound, while the soap sells for .
sor 6, yields a reasonable profit. But it
may he safely asserted and the assertion
w• 11 be sustained by the best soap makers
the rosin is of no benefit in a soap and is
often a positive injury. The detection of
rosin is comparatively easy, as it always
betrays itself by the smell. The quan—
titative estimation of it is,however, onite
difficult, and it can only be done .by a
chemist.
Another common adulterant is finely
ground talc or marble dust. These are
mere make—weights, and there is no rea
son lot their admixture. I recently heard
of a manufacturer alio boasted that he
had been able to introduce over 65 per
Cent. of adulteration in his soap, exclu
sive of the :osin.
A good hard soap should not contain
over 20 per cent, of water, should dissolve
completely in hot water, giving a fluid
that. is nearly cl ,, ar ; and should have no
d kagrreahle smell.
The artificial oil of bitter almonds is
()lien added to soap to conceal the poor
quality of the tadow. Some makers are
in the habit of incorporating considerable
quanties of carbonate of soda or sulphate
of stale in their soaps. These are cheap
and also enable the soap to hold
. much
more water. If too much of either is
used, it is apt to effloresce and appear as
a white incrustation 'on the surface of the
'l'l.ese 8:11t8 are easily recognized
by the appropriate tests. A drop of the
Acid causes the carbonate to effervesce. If
the soap is dissolved in a little hot water
and the tots precipitated with hydroch—
loric acid and filtered, chloride of barium
u ill show the presence of sulphate of soda
in the filterate.
Number of Quarts of Milk to a pound
of Butter.
In the Franticle Farmer, of February,
we find the following communication
from T. Sharpless; the information he
tenders upon the subject will be interest
ing to our readers generally
"Having noticed several discussions as
to the number of quarts of milk required
to make a pound of butter, I will send
some measurements recently made, to
ascertain for our own satisfaction, how
many quarts it did take.
For our churning week ending 12 mo.,
15th, '74. we had by actual measurement
six hundred and nine (609) quarts of
milk, the cream from which, when churn
ed. yieldtd seventy-four and one-forth
(74i) pounds, bring about 8.22 quarts to
the pound—dry measure quarts.
Again for the week ending Ist mo. 15,
1875, we bad five hundred and forty-six
(546) quarts from which we churned
sixty-six and a-half [66,11 pounds, about
8.20 quarts to the pound. The butter
was weighed as printed for Philabelphia
market in single pounds. The cows were
fed on corncob meal corn ground on the
cob—and brau mixed half-and-half.
equal to one-third corn and two-thirds
bran. The fresh cows getting six quarts
twice a day, and the strippers from four
down to two quarts at a feed, according
to condition, some being nearry dry and
not paying to feed inoch,with as much
bay as they would eut twice a day with a
haslet fed of cut cornfodder in the
morning. before they got any hay, and
oats straw at noon. The hay is a mirth •
of timothy, white clover and green grass
cut before the blosom fell from the timo
thy. The milk was kept in Jewett milk—
pans,and was set not more than one-and•
a—hall inches deep.
The pans being made to bold the milk
from twenty-five cows, and the quantity
being much reduced, it was necessarily
set shallow! Though that was not, I
think, any disadvantage, as I am, and
have been for years, a setting; although
in this case it is carried to the extreme t as
we had sometimes to add water to the.
milk, so as to be able to skim it. The
cows are common native stock, with a
few grade Alderneys, only two of which,
however,were milking at the time of trial
The most of these cows being strippers,
their milk would naturally be richer than
fresh cows, and, therefore, take rather less
to make a pound of butter. The cows
are kept in the stables in stanchions or
jacks most of the time, being let out into
the yard three or foirr hours per day. I
have stated this pretty fully, because pub
lication of statements without the mode
of feeding and handling, is, at best, un—
satisfactory, while with all the data given
you can draw some conclusion therefrom.
Very respectfully, .

Street Road, Chester county, Pa.
Presenrtne Butter for Future Lae.
One of our exchanges in replying to an
inquiry, says: " Many ways have been
proposed to keep butter, but we think
that of suspending it in brine the most
certain. Our inquirer in that case would
have to select such butter as is satisfac
tory to him in market, and put it into
new packages. Use a good tapering oak
tub with a head in each encL 'Take out
the largest head, having packed your but
ter in a cambric sack of the shape of your
tub. only two inches smaller,put it in the
tub and replace the head, so as to hequite
brine tight. Now through a bole in the
head pour the Jtrongest brule to fill, Optg;
place upon the large end, the butter will
flaat entaitdir in thh brine and thus be
eluded from the sir and be preserved for
any length of time. This may also be
done is a common butter pail, by putting
a small block of oak wood on the under
side of the cover, so as to sink'the sack of
butter under the hrinz in the pail. The
brat method of floating the butter in the
tab is an excellent way of putting up for
a distant market."

unusual heat and dryness, are invariably
accompanied by extensive derangements of
the stomach and liver, and other abdominal
viscera. In their treatment, a purgative,
exerting a powerful influence upon these
various organs, is essentially' necessary.
There is no cathartic for the purpose equal
to Da. J. WwcEa's VIWEGAZ Brzwas, as
they will speedily remove the dark-colored
viscid matter with which the bowels are
loaded, at the same time stimulating the
secretions of the liver, and generally restor
