He had been Matica’s scholarship holder from the Sava Tekelija fund since 1868, and his first work, Zdravlje i napredak naše dece59, was awarded by Matica in 1877. He became a regular member in 1880 and a member of the Literary Department in 1883. For Matica, he evaluated the manuscripts of its editions and published important articles in medical terminology in the Letopis Matice Srpske60. Matica published Batut’s works in preventive medicine and hygiene in the edition “Books for the people”. In the book Spomenica 1826–192661, Batut wrote an article about Matica’s work on the health improvement of our people. In 1927, this institution elected him her honorary member. When misunderstandings arose among the membership in the Matica in 1929, he stood out as a conciliator of opposing views.
