Dor! We are happy to know that you have dis

is the use of ranting about little borough pap
now, after having received all the county pap for
number Of years past. We hope the bottom OF
his Golfers have not yet been reached. If so, we
would advise the borough officials to quiet the
serving chi.," and let our neighbor live. We
certainly could not desire anything better to keep
up the Republican party in the county than to
have our neighbor live. Our editorial brother
says he was Instrumental in procuring for us, in

Ex-Sher!T Beckley has not been in that Office

A WONDERFUL Case.

The Geneva 90 Times contains a
letter from Mr.. L. Il. Bane, OF that
place, giving the dates and quantities Of
fluid taken from him by his physician by
" tapping" since December, 1870, from
which it appears that he was tapped y
90 times, and 1,419 pounds OF fluid
taken from him. He has lately been
cured by the use Of Bethesda spring
water sent him from Waukesha. Many
cases of dropsy have been cured by the
use CT this - Bethesda" but this cure
is really wonderful, as such eases OF
dropsy are incurable III the hands of
the best medical men.
We have known of Bethesda's Won
derful cures in liver and kidney com
plants, such as Indigestion, constlpa-
ton, and diseases proceeding from
these difficulties, viz. diabetes and
Bright's disease.
The late Chief Jus tice Chase was
cured of complicated liver aud kidney
complaint by the use of Bethesda.
Associate Justice Field says 1t VIII
cure any case of kidney disease.
Surgeon General Wolcott, of Wis
consin, Prof. Parker, of New York,
Senators Fenton, OF New York,
Window, of Minnesota, and other emf
nent men endorse it. Thousands of
barrels of this water have been sent to
dealers and invalids in different parts
of the world. Unhealthy persons
should try it. Address l. N. Morton,
Milwaukee, WIS, for particulars.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.


In the sanitary arrangement of
houses, even for the richer classes, the
ventilation of cupboards is neglected.
In places let as tenements, closets are
the receptables for bread and the frag-
ments of various other kinds of foot
Often the dirty clothes are put away IN
these places waiting for the Washing
1t Is therefore most important that air
should be plentifully passed through
such corners generally, however, there
Is but little arrangement made for this
purpose The doors are kept closed
without any perforation. There are no
ventilators 70 the walls, and. IN con-
sequence, those places become cases of
polluted air, which, when the doors are
opened, escapes over the apartments.
This defect is visible in nearly all
houses Of old date; and while looking
at some dwellings, OF recent construc-
ton it is seen that, although care has
been generally taken to ventilate stair
cases and rooms, the cuphoards are in
this respect neglected Dot, an OHIO
farmer.

Desirable 9uaiyti.s in "a Pig.

OF all the desirable qualities in a
pig, vigorous appetite is of the first
importance. 4 hog that will not eat is
of no more use than a mill that will
not grind And it is undoubtedly true
that the more a pig Will eat, IN proper
ton 80 size, provided lie can digest and
assimiiate It, the more profitable he
will prove.
The next desirable quality is, per
laps, quIetness of disposition. The
blood is derived from the food, and
flesh is derived from the blood. Ami
nal force is derived from the trans
formation of flesh The more of this
IS used III unnecessary motions, the
greater the demand on the stomach,
and the more food there will be re
quIred merely to sustain the vital func-
tlon6-and the more frequently flesh is
transformed and formed again, the
tougher and less palatable it becomes.
This quality, quietness of DISPOSE
ton, combined with a small amount of
useless parts, or offal, has been the aim
of ali modern breeders. Its importance
will be readily perceived if we assume
that rs per cent. of food is ordinarily
consumed to support the vital func-
tons, and that the slight additional
demand of only one-slXth more food is
required for the extra offal parts and
unnecessary activity.
Such a coarse, restless animal would
gam IN flesh and fat, IN proportion to
the food consumed, only half as fast as
the quiet, refined animal. To assume
that n rough, coarse, savage, i'll bred
mongrel hog viii require only one-sixth
more food than quiet, refined, we'll
bred Berkshire, Essex, or Suffolk, is
not eXtravagant.

When 10 psayS Deep.

Intelligent farmers know, or should
know, that 1t will not do to pillow
eight inches deep when the surface soil
was only six This may be done in the
course of time. but not at once To
make a good, deep soil, the progress
downward should be gradual. Let a
proper pnrtinn of the eubeoil be
brought to the surface and exposed to
the action of the sun, rain, wind and
frost, then add the measure recessasy
to render it fertile. By pursuing this
plan for successive years a fertile soil
can be made-one that will resist the
effects of severe drouths and be fitted
also for the successful culture of all
ordinary crops. By this means the
mineral constituents OF the subsoil be
ZONE thoroughly intermixed with the
soil of the surface, which III conse-
quence of oft repeated shallow pillow
lngs has been depleted of them.
To make a good soil by this method,
the blowing should be done in the sum
mer and fall, IL order that the newly
turned-up subsoil may be subjected
20 the ameEorating influences of the
heat and showers of summer and win
ter's freezing and thawlng. But after
all this is done it will be found that
good crops cannot be produced unless
there is liberal application of
manure. Plow deep and manure gen
erously and you will have good soil
and bountiful yield. II is bad policy
to pillow deep when there is only
thin stratum Of mould OF mellow
soil, and to bury this mellow portion
far beneath the surface.

sheep Eating Thrir Wool.

Instances of sheep eating their own
wool are quite common, especially
during the latter part of the winter
and early in the spring. Some have
thought the habit resulted from the
presence of small parasites, as minute
as the red spider of some towering
plants, which produce an irritation,
aud to allay this the sheep acquired
the habit of biting It's own skin, and
thereby eating Its own wool 1t is
generally believed, however. that the
habit Is analogous TO that of hens eat
ing their own shells. and the abnormal
appetite of cows for old bones, WOODEN
rags, etc, and Is caused by an ex~
haustion of the phosphate In the soil
Old pastures and fields that have long
been cropped are deficient IN these
elements, hence the absence of them
IN the feed and consequent want of
them by the animals. As preventive,
mix small quantity of bone meal with
corn meal, and give them an occasion
ri iced. Sulphur also has been found
TO be preventive of the habit, and
many farmers keep their stock con
stantly supplied with it. 1t no doubt
assists ia giving a healthy tone to the
system.
