He had gone up the state to visit some mili or other, and the bef ore mentioned friend volunteered to drive him over to his destination, Now, while the special correspondent has a wonderfully jeneral fund of information he know ittle about the country, and when they were passing a large cheese factory he exclaimed: "Why, there's a creameryl Just wait a minute while I go in and get a drink of buttermilk. ' ' With this he jumped out of the carriage and entered the building. My country friend says that whey is not jleasant to take and that even the pigs won't eat it. But when the special correspondent asked for buttermilk the jeople in the factory gave him a big jlass of thin, aciduous liquid, which he swallowed down at a draft. The drive was then continued. The special correspondent seerned to be very thoughtful. He finally exclaimed in his explosive 'ashion : "Well, Smith, I don 't know what Dreed of cows you raise np here, but :hat was the darndest buttermilk I ever tasted."-
