Milking Cows.

David Goodall, in the st. Johnsbury,
VT, Times, SAYS: A man who had done
his own milking employed boy to do it;
he shrunk the milk one.third in two
weeks. The owner resumed milking,
and in two weeks got the same as before.
Afterward he set a hired man to milk,
and he shrunk the milk ten per cent in
two weeks; and in two weeks more, the
owner milking again got as much as be-
fore. This man milks quickly and very
clean. He closes the forefinger and
thumb around the teat high up and
makes downward motion, tig htening
the grip and forcing out the milk; then
lets 60 his hold, keeping the finger and
thumb in circle, carries up the hand and
presses it smartly against the udder, and
closes and pulls down as before, and 80 re-
peats until done. The philosophy, if
any, is to give as near as may be the
same motion that the calf does in suck

Getting Rid OF Stone.

E. Wright tells the Rural Neeo Yorker

each side Of the ditch stones about five
inches high; then cover with flat stone to
within two feet ofthe top. Cover with a

with dirt. The ditch should be about
four feet deep, and he guarantees 1t will
give satisfaction.

The Wool clip OF the Pacific States.

The wool clip Of California and the Pa
ciiic States is assuming such large pro-
portions that its effects on the markets
are very perceptible. The Sacramento
Union furnishes the following state
ment of the clip of the past year, with
the prospect of an increace: Statistics
of the wool trade in San Francisco for
the year lS70.up to this date show ag-
gregate receip's Of nearly 20,OOO,OOO
pounds. These receipts do not cover
the whole production OF the State for the
year. The mills in Marysville, Stockton
and Mercer Falls must have worked up
at least 100000 pounds. and the prob
ability is that the shipments yet to be
made and the quantity yet in store will
make 100000 pounds more. The total
receipts will average 100000 pounds.
The average price has been about
twenty cents. That gives us wool clip
for 1870 worth 81 100000. Experienced
and weil-informed men in the business
are Of the opinion that the increase next
year will not be less than twenty-five
per cent. giving an aggregate oil 25,OOo,-
600 pounds, worth, at present prices,

surplus crop this year, when prices are
little higher than usual, and the crop

Hoohand's German Tonic

Was compounded for those not inclined 10
extreme bitters, and is intended for use IN
cases when some alcoholic stimulant Is re-
quired in connection with the Tonic proper
ties of the Bitters. Each bottle of the Tonic
contains one bottle Of the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA CRUZ RUM, and favored
in such manner that the extreme bitter
ness of the Bitters is overcome, forming
preparation highly agreeable and pleasant
to the palate, and containing the medical
virtues OF the Bitters. The price OF the
Tonic is sl.50 per bottle, which many per-
sons think too high. They must take into
consideration that the stimulant used Is
guaranteed to be OF pure quality. A poor
article could be furnished at cheaper price
but is it not better to paya little more and
have good article? A medicinal prepare
ton should contain none but the best ingre-
dients, and they who expect to obtain
cheap compound will most certainly be

George ID. Prentice aad Shadraeh
Penn. -Ter ..trf Z. .

The local item which we published
yesterday, in reference to Shadrach
PENIS Louisville Advertiser, has re-
vived an amusing incident in the his
tory of that gentleman life, which
some of the old citizens of Louisville
may yet remember, and which, doubt
less, afforded them many hearty laugh.
1t occurred about thirty-five years ago,
between the years 1885 and 1910, when
George D. Prentice, at the headof the
Louisville Journal. and Penn, as editor
and publisher of the Advertiser, were
running what was called in those days
of American journalism, a lively oppo-
sition. About year previous to the
occurrence, a horrible murder, or some
great calamity had occurred in the
South, not far from New Orleans. 1t
happened that Prentice had saved a
copy of this paper, which had not been
clipped or cut. His natural wit struck
upon a good expedient to get off good
joke on Penn by the means of this
paper, then a year old. Accordingly he
sprinkled the paper, folded it up, neatly
pressed it, and gave appearance of new
issue, and inclosing it in large wrap
per backed it, Compliments clerk Of
the steamer Wacousta, 5 days IS hours
out from New Orleans. Quickest trip
on record. To Shadrach Penn, editor
Louisville 1dcertiser.' The boy came
rushing into the editorial sanctum al
most totally exhausted, threw down the
paper on the table and then scsmpered
off Penn picked it up, tore the wrap
per hurriedly, and his eyes Immediately
rested on the important article Of news
referred to. No time was to be lost.
The paper was nearly up. Several i'm
portant matters were in the form, but
they were ordered out and the new copy
