My Success in 1870.

| put fifty-five swarms into winter
quarters, in a house built especially for
that purpose; this was in the fall OF
1869, which was the worst season have
known since | commenced to keep bees.
In the spring of 1870 they were all alive,
but one was queenless, and two dis
eased. These broke up, leaving me
ffty-twO stocks for the seasons work.
From these fifty-two swarms, l OBJ
tanned $500 pounds box honey, and in
creased my stocks to 102 swarms, mostly
by the artificial method, though quite
a number came off naturally. before l
could get around to attend to them.
The largest amount of box-honey OBJ
tained from one hive was 2lO pounds.
This was from natural swarm of hv-
birds that came off the 18th of June.
In just sixteen days from the time they
were hived, they had eight five pound
boxes finished, and the hive nearly full
OF comb. The parent stock of this
swarm gave me so pounds making Alto
gether 29O pounds. sold the honey at
p cents, amounting to $63,sO, and one
swarm for $500 making total receipts
from one stock, $71 so.
Many of my swarms gave me 100
pounds and upwards. My bees are
Italians few hybrids and I use
movable hives. At some future time l
may give your readers my mode of
managing.-Bce-F Keepers journal. ..

Wind Calls or PuHs.

Wind gals sc :erally affect the hind
legs, and are tee .nically called, bursal
enlargement. Horses are frequently
affected with them for years without
injuring their working qualities, and
they are not considered as an unsound-
ness, yet horsemen are anxious to re-
move them. But their permanent cure
is no easy matter. Most of the rene
dies applied have no real value. Pres
sure is the simplest and best remedy. A
piece of soft rag folded several times
saturated with water and on this lay
one dram opium and camphor; place
this on the wind gall. Then place on
the wetted rag piece of fiattened cork
lace a rudder or elastic bandage, which
will give a uniform pressure upon the
wind gall. Instead of the camphor and
opium, solution of carbolic acid may
be used to wet the rag. This constant
will soon reduce the swelling, but the
bandage should be kept on constantly
while in the stable and only taken of
when the horse goes to its work. The
bandage wet with water alone will do
where the other remedies are not at
hand. Blisters are sometimes used, but
cure in this way is no more permanent
than that of pressure. A hard pull or
strain will bring them on again with
either mode Of cure.-Lire Stock Jour

A Cure for Anger.

One day paid visit to one of my
friends. On entering the dining-room
/ saw to of her sons, of about seven OF
eight years old, sitting each in a corner
of the room. They came forward to
greet me, and asked them why they
were sitting SO far apart.
WELL said one of them, mamma
has said that when We get angry with
with one another we must not fight, but
that we must sit down as far as posi-
BILE from each other, until our anger is
over.'
He had scarcely finished these words,
when they both ran as fast as possible
to sit down, each in his corner, looking
fiercely at one another.

asked.
MOI they both shouted at once.

after quarter of an hour came back
into the dining-room, found the little
brothers playing together.

They answered quite pleased, 'Yes
now it's over.

The Cold-Water Boy.

Behold Il table with boiled turkey
and ham, with vegetables nicely cook
ed, and grayies rich and juicy. There
sits father at its head and the mother
opposite, ,and guests are seated on either
side; there is no lack of good humor
and merry jest to give spice to CONVEX
sation.
There are children, too; boy of ten
and little girl of eight. They listen
intelligently and attentively to the re-
marks of parents and guests, look up
into the faces OF one another with inter-
est. Behold. decanters are brought in !;
glasses are filled, and one another sip
the sparkling wine.
Excellent exclaimed one, smacking
his lips. 'Fine,' echoed another, with
glass refilled.
Shall l drink wine with you my lad p
asked one of the gentlemen, bowing to
the boy.
IS not your glass filled, William ?
asked the father. John. fill Williams
glass; turning to the servant. Slowly
did William turn up his glass to receive
the rosy liquor.
Drink with :he gentleman, my dear,
whispered his mother, encouragingly.
The boy blushed and east down his eyes,
but, he Obeyed not. Was he frightened? !?
Was he diffident?
MY son, did you not hear Mr.. Black
address you?' said the father quickly
and sternly. Drink wine with him, Will
liam.'
Accustomed to obey his fathers slight
est wish, the boys lip quivered, but he
obeyed not.
In moment, raising his eyes and
looking his father full in the face, he said
manfully:
Father, | am soldier in the Cold
Water Army, and can't drink wine.'
Brave boy!' exclaimed one Of the
gentlemen, setting down his glass.
THE Cold Water Army must conquer
if every soldier stands his ground as
well,' said another, regarding William
with great respect.
we will excuse you, my son. said the
father in softened voice, and though
they sat long at the table, his glass was
not again raised to his lips. There it
stood, untasted and full. Yes, the cold
water ranks can boast of other soldiers
as brave as William.
Stand firm, my boys; let no one beat
you from your ground. Be up and do
ing! Intemperanee is stealing about,
seeking whom it may devour. Break his
weapons, destroy his engines, give him
no quarter.
COLD WATER! COLD wATER,'
Let this shout of triumph be heard
all over the land, from city and hamlet,
from mountain and glen.
Cold water! cold water and victoryr

boys: ##.t
Say what you will about the genera
usefulness of boys, it is my impression
that farm without a boy would very
soon come to grief. He is the factotum
always in demand, always expected to
do the thousand Indispensable things
that nobody else will do. Upon him
fall all the odds and ends, the most diff.
ficult things. After everybody else is
through he has to finish up. His work
is like woman's-perpetually waiting
oniothers. Everybody knows how much
easier it is to eat good dinner than to
wash the dishes afterward. Consider
what a boy on farm is required to do ;
things that must be done, or life would
actually stop.

Poke Root

Wherever Poke Root grows, 1t has local
reputation as Blood Purifier, and for the
cure of Rheumatism. With all this local
reputation, and the praise of distinguished
Physicians (Drs. Coe, Lee, King, Wilson N.
Hunt, Grif6ts, Copland and Others,) Who
have tested its medical powers; it has been
neglected by the profession at large, as much
through want Of proper appreciation Of
its merits, as knowledge of the proper way
to prepare it for medicinal use. DR.. Oliver
Crook, Ia physician who devotes his entire
time to the duties ofhis profession has fully
tested the active medicinal qualities of Poke
Root during the last 25 years, and unhesi-
tatingly pronounces it to have MORE MERIT
for diseases depending ON depraved con-
dition of the blood, than any and all other
articles named in the Materia Medica. Un-
der his instructions our Chemist has CON-
bined the active medicinal qualities OF Poke
Root with the best Tonic Preparation OF
Iron, and we offer this preparation to the
public under the above name. 90 ai5'-

THE NEW RULER IN MEXICO.

A very mOmentous change has taken
place in the condition of Mexico A great
anchor has been lost to that storm -beset
country. President Juarez was a very
strong man, not because he possessed any
peculiar brilliance, but because he had a
soidity about him that nothing could
shake. He was as confident in flight as he
was in the hour of success. He had as
much faith in his star rs BOnaparte had.
AS fugitive in Eagle Pass LIE never
doubted about his ultimate success in
oyerthrowing the empire Of Macmillan.
As a Mexican, he relied upon the Mexi-
cans to work out their own redemption.
The Indian blood in his veins made him a
stole in adversely; the same admiXture
made him cautious. He was always on
his guard. Surrounded by rivals, men
aced by ambitious chieftains he never
seemed to know that there was any man
in his way. He did not allow his enemies
to know that he was against them. His
plan was to make his foes declare them
selves, even while he seemed to be relying
upon their friendship. Ortega held an ap-
pointment under Juarez even while he was
conspiring against him. Ocampo was in
his Cabinet while intriguing for the
Presidency. Tejada has always been his adj
wiser while he has also been his opponent.
Porfrio Diaz> held the highest military
command in the republic, and yet he has
been connected with two rebellions against
his cOmmander-in-chief Juarez did not
take any notice Of these attempts against
his authority. He trusted all his enemies
with important positions, but he had a
way Of playing one against the other that
secured his own safety and success. In
this he was the superior of JEFF Davis, fer
he allowed the best ability to succeed in
behalf Of the State, and then he managed
to get the greater half of thepredit Davis
would not tolerate great General outside
of Virginia, because he was afraid John
ston, Beauregard or Price might eclipse
his own popularity. The President of
Mexico never allowed such a petty senti-
ment to move him. He sent the best
workman to do the hardest job, and
trusted to the general success Of his ad
ministration for his reward.
President Juarez is dead. The man
who never allowed a revolution to disturb
his serenity or unfx his faith has departed
from the head Of affairs and his place is
now filed by the greatest statesman in
Mexico. Lerdo de Tejada IS the author Of
the tremendous reforms that have taken
place on the other side of the Rio Grande.

WHERE THE SACRIFICE" COMES IN

The Last Ditchers make this appeal con-
stantly to those of the old Democracy
who have gone into the Liberal move
ment: "You have sacrificed your chances
for Democratic President it is but fair,
therefore, you should have the State gov
eminent All the sacrifices are demanded
from your side"
To lay aside the petty, offce-seeking
selfshness which characterizes this appeal,
and to treat it as fair proposition, we re-
tort wherein have you sacrificed aught,
and what? Are the Democracy in power
in the national or State governments? No.
Then what Of official power or authority
are you called upon to surrender? As a
party opposed to the Republican party,
had you prospectof elecdng your friends
to Office? Your State convention and
chosen leaders have affirmed not. Then
no sacrifice have you made at all
On the other hand the Liberal Repub-
LEANS whose determination TO remedy
the evils which aflict the body polite you
are asked to assist, were Incidentally men
Of high rank and infuencepn their party;
by remaining in and coo operating with
those into whose hands the Republican
national organization had fallen, whatever
official aspirations they might be possessed
of would havs gladly been gratihed. But,
recognizing atuger to the people and Re
publican Institutions in continuance of
existing conditions, and putting principles
and public Justice before party friend
ships and private ambitib n, they sacri-
feed all the bright and ass ured prospects
before them in an experiment to save the
nation from the ills which threatened it.
That the movement has grown beyond an
experiment into glorious success is due
to the patriotism and Ioveifor honest gov
eminent of these Republicans. Theirs
the risk-theirs the only sacrifice.
When the Liberal party had grown to
such proportions that danger of defeat
was passed, the Democrats gave it their
alliance. Instead Of making sacrifice,
however, they gain a national administra-
ton which viii prove grateful for their
assistance and which Will. recognize all
their just claims. Their representatives in
every State are placed with Liberals upon
all the various local tickets, and by this

He planned them, but it required the
serene obstinaey of Juarez to work them
out. The Medcans trusted Juarez as the
French trusted Bonaparte or as the Prus-
SLAMS trust Bismarck. Can Tgjada 60 on
with the work his great leader left undone?
Can the brilliant statesman hold in check
the revolutions that beat against the stub
born breast of Juarez so often only to be
baf1ed We doubt it. Tejada is Plesi-
dent, but the Mexicans have not that faith
in him that they had in Juarez. They
credit him with greater craftsmanship, but
they distrust his steadiness. When he
flies they say he will not return. When
Juarez ran away it was safe to say he
would come back. Now We wait to see
what the new President will do He will
have a chance soon to show his pluck, and
upon the way he handles his fort will de-
pend his chances of keeping his purSuers
at bay. For the sake of Mexico we pray
for his success.
