rich. but their lands are also imp, owing in
productive fertility from year to year

found ? Yet, under this course of manage
ment, how far il will exceed. both ia pr, due
tiveness and durability, the best..western grain
growing counties. In a few years the farmers
of one win be rich with plenty of money TO
loan while those of the other will be poor
and ready to borrow the money. Such is the
difference of a wise or foolish course In ag-
riculture.
Allegheny county has twenty-five cheese
factories, all in highly successful operation.

ted at $300OtO. and the butter product at a

New York are not far behind in this line of
business. and are Iapidly developing new

A very improper occurrence, which took
place in the Treasury building last evening,
resulted this morning in the dismissal of 0
married man and q single woman, both
employees in that department.. 1t would
seem that the services of Hannah Tyler
are again to be needed in this building.
Only last week lady, whose husband is
a clerk in one of the bureaus of the Treas
ury, accused her lord OF running after a
strange goddess in the shape of a lovelyfe-
male employe of the same bureau, and
when confronted by his superior officer he
confessed the fact, but pleaded in extenua-
ton that every time he went home he
found his wife in familiar intimacy with a
certain ex-official of high social standing.
The female employe was dismissed, and
only few days ago clerk in thesa bu-
reau was dismissed for refusing to support
his unlawful offspring, that the mother
had been compelled to send to the Poor
House,
