Horse Drowned. Mr.. John Lavender, a
farmer who resides in the lowest extremity
of Pearce's Neck. was returning home
from the Beach fishery, and attempted to
drive across the mouth of Pearce's creek
which is hazardous undertaking at low
water. The tide being high the horse
was unable to draw the carriage to the
opposite shore and commenced kicking and
struggling to get free from the vehicle, but
drowned in the attempt. Mr.. Lavender
succeeded in reaching the shore, but was
badly stunned by kick from the horse
The animal was very valuable one.
Death Of an Aged Lady.-Miss Sallie
Hague, maiden lady who had reached an
advanced age, died recently, it is thought,
from bruises she received by falling down
stairs.
Farming - Notwithstanding the many
drawbacks the farmers have from stormy
weather, they are progressing rapidly with
their Spring work. A Number of the farm
ers are setting out peach trees.
Thunder Storm.-On Saturday night we
were visited by heavy thunder storm for
this season Of the year.
School.-The School Teachers resumed
their work again the first of April.
FSshing.-The love of fishing seems not
only to be hereditary but contagious, fol
if you question young man as to what he
intends to do in the Spring his answer will
be Coin to fish, and it is with difficulty
that the farmers get hands at all. All OF
the fishermen are doing well in our rivers.

We take pleasure in announcing to our
customers that IA recent improvement in
our machinery has enabled us to manufac-
ture, either our usual grade of Ground
Bone or one much finer than we have before
offered. or than is generally to be found in
the market.
Those who especially desire prompt
return the first season and yet wish to per-
manently improve their soil, will, we think,
find this Fine Bone adopted to their wants,
and themselves relieved from the necessity
of resorting to manipulated fertilizers.
In filling orders, we will send the usual
grade unless the extra fine is especially
mentioned. Samples of either with prices,

The Parker Gun.

Our readers have no doubt noticed in
our columns for the past two weeks the
card of Parker Brothers, of West Meriden,
Conn, with cut of their world-renowned
breech- loading double-barreled shot gun.
We have delayed noticing, in order to test
one which is now in our possession. This
we have done, to our entire satisfaction,
and do not hesitate recommending it as the
best gun that we have ever handled. 1t is
all that the manufacturers claim, and per-
feet in every detail. At the grand shoot
ing tournament held at Chicago, on the
25th, Goth, 9th and 2Sth of last month,
the Parker proved superior to all other
guns, winning more prizes than any other
style, either breech or muzze loading. 1t
is being adopted by all the leading sports
men of the country Otsego. N. Y DEM

TRADE.

What fuss some storkecpers make
about low prices and what 4 farce it is,
anything to make people believe that they
are getting goods for less money than they
can buy them elsewhere. About every
other customer quotes prices in the Hollow
especially at the BEE HIVE, when they
know there is qu tie as much and very
probably more difference in the quality
than in the price.
A good article at a fair price is very much
cheaper than a poor article at a low price,
and it's fair inference that no man-unless
he's fool or a knave-is going to sell his
goods at less than cost. and all this ado
about low prices is simply to sell and make
money. Good goods at fair prices are
abundant in Elkton and are sold on reas-
enable terms, but NOT IN THE Hollow.
