lu the course of an inspection of a mail liner in the Napier roadstead, a newspaper man, delving in the mysteries of the big; ship's, up-to-date dairy, learned one of the inner secrets —how ship’s cream is made. An obliging; official of the boat explained tlio process, by which 51 bs of dried milk are added "to three times that amount of butter and several gallons ol water. The whole is then heated to 140 degrees and thoroughly mixed in a rotating cylinder. It is then put through a separator, and lo and behold cream comes out of one spoat and milk issues from the other. Two minutes later passengers in the commodious dining saloon of tine vessel are having cream on their sweets, even though the boat may be many weeks from the nearest land.
