A hustle and confusion at the door

turbance was SO great that, his words
could not be heard. In moment an.

Confusion reigned again, and the
suggestions" that we're 30 scarce a few
moments before, were now plenty as
blackberrics. Everybody thought every.

evacuation Of the village. These last
we're iu the minority, we are happy to

was full Of self -congratnlation, and Gem
Grandervack did not hesitate to tell them
"they were O set Of runnygntes, and
they'd better go and jine the rebels,
where they belonged"
General Grandcrvack raped loudly to
call the meeting to order, and at length
he succeeded in reducing the tumult
somewhat, so such definite action could
be taken as the urgency of the case de-
manded. 1t was decided that those who
could procure horses should do so, and
act as cavalry, to pursue the enemy-or
be pursued, as the case might be while
the others should servo as infantry cup

course, unanimously chosen commander.

to go home, and report back Us speedily

Col. MOSby.

A Northern paper contains the follow
ing pen and ink sketch Of the famous
Col. Mosby:
AT CuIpepper, a man five feet ten
inches high, broad shouldered, heavy
lmbed. with straight, light brown hair
cut close, keen gray eyes, sharp, thin
nose, firmly set mouth, protruding chin
with dimple, forid complexion, thirty six
years old. the father Of Eve children,
entered our car and was introduced to
US by land agent az Colonel Mosby.
Tho Colonel is very blunt man in his
conversation has his likes AMI dislikes,
which he does not attempt to conceal.
He is rather proud Of his exploits during
the war, and relates some wondrous per
formances that my men, did. And he
tells il 10 such manner that, knowing
the man, you are perfectly willing to be
lieve all he says is trae, sud the mind
guards ,tselfa gainst any doubts, psrtic
ularly while in his presence.
Just before reaching Warrenton juno
tion, tho Colonel was approached by q
gentleman, who introduced himself as
somebody from Philadelphia, and aftor q
moments conversation, said:
"Colonel, l had q near and dear friend,
who was an officer in one Of our Penn
sylvania regiments. and he was lost one
night while on picket duty near here
they say captured by your men. Moth
ing has been heard Of him since that
night, and I though. would make bold
to introduce myself and ask if you knew
anything of him. His name was D.
Lieutenant D."
"Yes, killed him myself; and he is
the only man that l am positive killed
during the war. My men brought me
some papers he had on his person, and
We gave him o decent burial the next
morning. will be pleased to show you
where he sleeps at any time, or render
you any other assistance IN my power"
Tho cars stop, the brakeman cries
"Warrenton," the Colonel shakes the
hand Of the Philsdelphian in a peculiar
manner, = brotherly smile Of secoe milton
passes between them. another peculiar
"sAake" and out marches the "Guarrilla
Moeby." "Wolf Of Piedmont "Fox
Of the Valley" with . slight "stoop 10

SPECIAL FARNIING.-Manyo Of the COM
plants made that farming does not pay
are founded on the fact that some particu-
lar crop has been raised to the exclusion of
others, and failure has resulted disas-
trously. In mixed farming this cannot
occur. a successful farmer will tell you
the secret Of his success. He has always
something to sell. In the winter time he
has grain of all sorts, wool and mutton /;
in the spring, he has some fat cattle or a
fresh COW; some fat calves during summer,
and at any time, if one should want a
horse, he will have one to spare, having
always a colt to put in its place. Thus
money is all the time dropping into his
purse, and though the items may be small
the aggregate is considerable; while he
has abundance for his domestic supply
without having to purchase. Contrast this
with the hop raiser, the cotton grower, the
fruit culturist, and all others who limit
themselves to a special product They
may handle more money in a year, but
how. little of it sticks to their fingers; they
handle it but as trustees for others, and
sometimes failure will prevent them
handling sufficient for their pressing needs.

Hove is q common complaint among
cattle at this season of the year. An over
feeding of green corn, or stolen visit to a
corn or turnip field, will often bring on a
serious attack. A safe remedy is to put a
short stick, two inches thick, in the ami
MAILS mouth across the jaws, and fasten it
with cord to each horn, so as to retain 1T
in place. The mouth is thus kept open.
Then elevate the head, with the muzzle
extended, and the gas will escape. If this
does not relieve the animal, "paunching"
will be necessary. A very small instru-
ment, such as the blade of a small pen
knife, should be used but it would be adj
visable to secure the sevices of a surgeon,
or some one who has performed the oper-
alton before, lest the wrong spot might be
pierced. If this cannot be done, and there
is imminent danger of death ensuing, it
might be as well to run the risk. The
blade may be inserted on the left side, mid
way between the hip bone and the last rib,
taking care to strike sufficiently low to avoid
the Kidney. As the distension of the
stomach isvery great, if the blade is not
more than an inch and a half in length,
there will not be any danger to the kid
ney, without great ignoance of the situa-
ton Of the parts.

near Albany is said to have raised ON two
acres of land enough early lettuce to yield
a profit of $4,000. .lf s.ah
An exchange says women are being en-
ployed to gather the crops in certain parts
of this State. The farmers in the vicinity
of Rondout send wagons early in the
morning for German women, who are
helping them in the fields, and carry them
home again in the evening.
Considerable tobacco is now being raised
in Wisconsin, the fields ranging from gar
den patches to forty acres. r5g $3.50

SAVE THE APPLEs.-The- scarcity and
high price of genuine cider vinegar makes
it always a'profitable article of manufacture
ON farms which possess an orchard, as ev-
ry farm should. At this season apples
commence to fall from the trees, and the
quantity that might be saved by few
minutes work each day is something
consideration. Asmall cidermill and press
may be purchased for ten dollars and up
wards, and where there are twenty trees in
the orchard, the amount saved by its use
the first year would equal its cost. After
every high wind sufficient apples might
be gathered for a grinding, the juice might
be turned into a cask and additions occas-
inly made until it is filled, when, after be-
ing properly converted in to vinegar and
racked offfrom the sediment, it would find
good market in any town of considerable
size. The pomace would be excellent for
the hogs, and small quantity placed in
wide-mouthed bottles or shallow pans and
covered with water would make very eff
cient traps for moths of all kinds. We
have found this method oftrapping insects
successful. ----.---

choice cattle. The following extract from
letter written from the vicinity of Lon

received there: t"Last week / went to a

splendid cattle as well as some splendid

CATTLE SUPPLY IN THE EAsT.-Accor-
ding to a writer in the st. Louis RepubH-
cdnthe census returns show a regular de-
crease in the meat supply in States east
of the Mississippi. The writer asserts that
a careful examination of the statistics of
the Census Bureau shows that to every one
hundred people in this country there
should be eighty neat cattle. According
to this rule, Massachusetts, had less than
one half of the requisite number of neat
cattle in 1910, less than one third in 1850,
and less than one fourth the number of
cattle required for the support of her pop
ulation in 1860. The deficiency in beef,
butter, and cheese must consequently be
made up by importations. New York,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia all fall below the
ratio of so per cent to their population
and must import the deficiency-20 per
cent-annually.
