-"My pans are two feet and two inches
wide, one six feet long and the other five
feet. | have made 769 pounds of sugar, by
weight, this spring, and used four and half
cords of green birch wood, most of it being
cut after the sugar place was tapped. As
near as ! can learn my neighbors who have
heaters use about the same amount Of wood
per hundred pounds as do, but their arches
are wider and deeper, so they can boil faster.
My arch is two feet wide, except at the
mouth; the space for wood is tWenty-one
inches wide and sixteen inches deep; the
chimney rises eight feet above the arch. AS
near as | can judge from experience, can boil
about forty gallons per hour after the arch
is hot My pans both boil the whole length,
and think that another pan or heater be-
hind them might be used to advantage.
Our sap is very sweet this year, 1t does
not take more than two-thirds as much for Il
pound of sugar as it does some years
1t takes more wood to boil 100 pounds
when you have to drive hard than it does
when you boil moderately, for although the
sap does not heat above 2l2a, the steam
may be heated a great deal more, and when
the heat under the pan is intense the steam
will carry off more heat in proportion to the
amount of steam than it otherwise would, 80
YOU see there is a saving both Of time and wood
by having plenty of boiling apparatus.
The sap here contains only moderate
quantity Of the substance called nitre, malate
Of lime, hgnine, &c"

There is no reason to believe and it is iu-
tile to expect that the farmers and other in
dustrial classes Of the country until they
have struck death-blow at the fraud and
corruption that have for many years been
creeping into our government through the
Capitalization and abuse of capital. Why
should they stop short? Why should they
not insist that 4 bona fde government Of the
people should bo inaugurated to foster the
best interests of the masses? Why should
they, when it is avoidable, be represented by
men in the interest of capitalists who, with
their head quarters in our great cities, are
constantly using their immense, increasing,
and almost ovcrpowering wealth, concentrat-
ed as it is in the hands of few scores of
individuals, to crush out opposition to their
interests and to grind to the earth the prcduc-
ing classes? This we believe to be one Of
the grave issues which, ere long, the people
of the United states will be called upon to
meet face-to face Western RWdi.

The most simple, as well as the most eff
fectua, remedy for kicking cows is that en-
ployed by some Of the dairymeu of Ilerki-
mer County. 1t consists in buckling leath-
er strap rather snugly about the body of the
COW, just in front of the udder. The COW is
thus rendered powerless to do harm in kick
ing, and the most confirmed and viciously in-
clined kickers are at once subdued. Those
who have employed this simple method say
that in no instance, in their experience, has
it failed.

Serious ARRAY.

On Monday of last week, Town
Marshal Davis arrested Peter Spoon
who was intoxicated to a considera-
BILE extent, and on the way to the
calaboose, Davis says that Spoon
resisted and showed fight, whereup-
on the Town Marshal gave him a
pretty severe mauling. After being
confined in the calaboose for a short
time, Spoon was taken out by his
friends and conveyed to the resi-
dence of Mr.. John Morris, near
town, where he died on Tuesday
evening. The physicians who at
tended Mr.. Spoon during Tuesday
pronounced that he had cholera, and
that that disease was the cause of
his death. Mr.. Spoons relatives
and friends procured warrant for
Davis and had him arrested charged
with beating Mr.. S. to such an ex-
tent as to cause his death. On Fri
day and Saturday, Davis had a pre-
liminary examination before Esqnires
Donaldson and Howell, who bound
him over in bond of two thousand
dollars for his appearance at the
next term of the Circuit Court.

1t is stated by one of our ex-
changes that Mississippi has rather
a peculiar law, passed by the last
Legislature, by which it is provided
that every person holding office in
the State who shall be found drunk
shall, upon conviction, be deemed
guilty of high misdemeanor, and
shall, by the judgment of the Court
and sentence, be removed from
Office. This is the first general law
of the kind which we ever heard OF,
though tipsy judges have been i'm
peached and tipping militia officers
court-martialed. It is nevertheless
good law, and other States would
do well to follow. the example of
Mississippi in this case at least.

The First Bartender.

The first bar tender of whom we
have any account was Hebe. Miss
H. appears to have been a pretty
young lady, not much given to over
dressing. Indeed, in these prints
we have of her, it looks as if she
had lost her wardrobe by a fire, and
it is certain that she should have
been ashamed OF herself. We new
er knew her personally, and there
fore can only write from hearsay.-
Jupiter was a heavy customer, and
always got drunk from Hebe's place
and sometimes run a big account
Juno spent great many drachm@
there also, and Bacchus used to
board at the establishment. Hebe
had no license, and was finally sup
pressed. So says an exchange.

How To Do IL.

Now is the time newspapers are
thoroughly read, and now is the time
to advertise. Prepare for the fall
trade by giving timely notice OF
what you have to sell. There are
many shrewd devices in advertising,
but the safest and surest way, and
one that is certain to pay in the end,
is persistence-the constant keeping
of your business before the public
eye. There is no man who better
understands this than Barnum. In
one way or another he maintains
himself continually before the public
and his success is commensurate
with his advertising genius.

Few housekeepers appreciate the
value of chicken and turkey wings;
they use them to dust furniture and
brush up the hearth, but for washing
windows they are of untold worth.
There is nothing that equals them;
they clean the corners out easily.
and leave no lint upon the glass.
Then for spreading paste on walls
and paper there is no invention that
will do the work half as well. Try
them once. and there will be no
necessity of telling people to be
sure and save all the wings.
