Oryille Grant interviewed by a Re.
porter-His Letters, etc.
CHICAGO January 6.-The Republican
this morning publishes an interview had
with Orville Grant concerning charges
against Supervisor Bloomfield and Col
lector Jussen, preferred in private let
ter telegraphed from Washington to the
Cincinnati Commercial. While acknowl-
edging that ne wrote similar letter
long ago, he expresses regret at the pub
licity given and injury done to those Of
ficers, whom he now fully exonerates.
He says when that letter was written, |
was misinformed and prejudiced against
both gentlemen. have since found
that did not understand the matter at
all, and l wrote not long since to the
President, expressing my regret for hav-
ing prejudiced him against those hon
orable men and good officers. l also
in that last letter recommended that
Bloomfield and Jussen be retained in
Office. Mr.. Grant very frankly spol-
ogized to Bloomfield and Jussen, which
was regarded here by the Republicans
as highly honorable, and are also
gratifed that the Presidents retention
Of these men in Office is so we'll explain
ed.
In reply to the question BY the re,
porter that the President would be
much annoyed over the publication Of
the letter, Mr.. Grant said: Yes, oi
course he WILL that annoys me more
than any. Ny personal feelings in the
matter, and my near relation to the
President, has always up to this time
kept me out Of ever meddling with
political matters. As l said before, ]
am . plain business man and know
nothing about politics, the President
has enough to annoy him without hav.
ing me dragged into public notice. ]
am very sorry for the whole thing.

RUyAwAY.-A horse belonging to
Jacob Shaver, Of Briertovn, ran away
with a sled last Thursday, near Lamb 8
mill, in Grant township. Becoming de-
tached from the vehicle, he ran at a
furious pace until he met a two-horse
sled driven by Mr.. Sylvanus Shaver,
which he dashed into in vain attempt
to pass in the narrow road. The result
was very disastrous failure. The end
of the sled tongue entered the breast OF
the runaway horse and was driven by
the force of the collision two feet into
him. Mr.. Shaver has one horse less

How to Stack Grain,

1t is proper that farmers should
make great haste in getting the
grain into the stack as soon as the
harvest is over; yet large quantities
are found in worse condition when
the fall rains come, than proper
care in stacking will justify.
The expense of raising bushel
of wheat is twice that of a bushcl of
corn in Illinois; therefore it pays
% guard its every change from
sheaf to loaf.
Trades are learned; stacking is
done from mere tuition, regardless
Of any practical rules. An ill
shaped stack, with bristling sides,
mars the appearance OF the barn
gard. There is n display of neither
Use nor beauty, if the surface Of the
stack is not made smooth by the
quits of the sheaves inclining well
downward.
Nothing improves the wheat so
much, as to impart its latent mois-
ure while in bulk with the straw,
f we'll secured.
-Four men with teams make a great
;aying of time, which would be re-
]uirel for the stacker, and the man
Who pitches on the wagon to 60 to
nd from the field.
The foundation should be Of rails
n other rubbish; but if these are
rot convenient and the ground is
!ry, commence the stack by placing
ne sheaves upright in the center,
nd incline them as the outside is
pproached. This will answer if
urroundcd by an open drain.
Stacks or ricks may be made, as
he quantity Of straw requires. If
icks are made, each side should
ave equal benefit of the suns rays
y being placed north and south.
Having the bottom commenced,
is well to place a few courses by
assing round the outside of the
tack, that they may be perfect in
hapc. This will also aid in keep
g the sides perpendicular, which
hoald stand to the height Of about
We feet, that the bulge will not set
on the ground. Keep the sheavcs
'vcl up to the point where the sides
eyin to converge, as the bottom of
stack has no more to do in keep
" the water out than the floor of
ouse. Widen the stack very care
lilly, as one foot projection to four
4 hci ght will reverse the order
hen it settles.
Don't get on the knees to stack,
it not onl Y wears out the clothes,
ut it makes tiresomc work hand
NC the sheavcs. With little
racticc n pi chfork may be used to
God advantage. Neither should
re stacker walk on the outside
purse ater the projection is com
cnccd.
When the ends Of the shcavcs,
Inside, incline downward uniform
round the stack from their own
eight, ut height Of about eight
ct, it is about right. The middle
ay now be filled in rounding, by
,mmcncing in the center and plac-
lg toward the outside, as begin
ny on the outside and laying
ward the center inclincs the heads
AWKWARD so much that water is
,bIc tn find its way in.
Keep the middle well filled up,
,L place the outside shcaves close
.ether. In topping ont the stack,
nee tire butts Of the sllcavcs well
,wnwards, and there will be little
niger of the winds blowing them

Butter and Cheese Makipx,

The following from the Lewiston
Journal, in regard to butter and
cheese factories in Maine, is quite
applicable to our States:
GAS movements are being made
In the various parts Of the State
toward erecting butter and cheese
factories, we trust farmers will take
no steps ignorantly in the premises.
IT several farmers in u neighbour
hood are interested in the establish
ment OF Il cheese factory, it would
undoubtedly be the better way for
them to raise small sum of money,
say 800, and send for some person
who has had experience in the bust
ness to come and survey the ground,
and if he thinks favorably Of the
location, give his advice in relation
to the formation of company, the
plan of buildings, the location of
the same, etc.
1t will be folly to think of estab-
fishing an associated cheese facto-
ry in a location where there is not
good, natural supply of living wa
ter for the stock whose milk is to
be depended upon to supply the fac
tory, unless great pains have been
taken to supply water by artificial
means. The neighborhood that can
support a cheese factory must be
good milk-producing ncighborhood;
it must have good pasturagc and
well prepared hay fields.
1t would not be iudicious to es-
tablish cheese factory unless a
sufficient number of farmers are in
terested to obligc themselves to fur
nish the milk from 800 to 500 cows
for term of years. 1t would be
desirable if this number of COWS
could be kept within radius Of two
miles from the factory, as thereby
much teaming would be saved and
the milk would be delivered at the
factory in better condition. OF
course the distance from which
milk may be brought with profit
will depend largely on the state of
the roads and the quantity that is
to be drawn.
The location Of the cheese factory
should be central one; if it could
be built at the crossing of two roads
which lead TO- the houses of the
farmers who supply the milk, SO
much the better. What is of more
Importance than a central location
is a supply of never failing spring
water a factory of 500 cows, with
all the machinery and fixtures, will
cost from $4,000 to $1,000.
A gentleman well informed on
these topics writes that butter and
cheese factories can be combined
where spring water is abundant
With about one-third added to the
expense of building common
cheese factory, it may be fitted for
both butter and cheese making
Then we are prepared to make the
very most of our milk; we can skim
partially or wholly, as the season of
the year or the markets may intlu
ence. We have found in our ex-
pcricnce that at certain seasons
milk made into butter would bring
patrons two or three cents more per
gallen than when made into cheese,
while at other times the profit would
be in favor of the cheese.
