WALNUT LUMBER. Forney's Press says
OF all timber trees the black walnut is ut
the present time believed to be the most
profitable. Prices have been so tempting
that in many localities no more Of any
consequence are to be found. Ohio and
Indiana have Of late years been the great
sources of supply From these States
large quantities have been sent to the fur
niture factories east. AT present time Ken
lucky is shipping timber largely. While,
however. most Of the older States are be
ing depleted OF this valuable wood, the
States that may be called the timber plant
ing ones, are rapidly coming up with Il
supply. 1t is found to grow with great
rapidity in some of them, and especially
in Nebraska In this State several acres
set out within the last ten ye1rs are al
ready producing nuts in abundance, and
these, it is said, have already paid the eX-
pence Of planting and care. Many people
in view of the growing scarcity OF walnut,
fear its disappearance from market in Il
short time. 1t would be no matter for
alarm if the extensive western plantations
were better known.
The Republican journal., 1875-12-09

A Manchester markct-man undertook
to fool "lIorace Greeley" Il watch dog OF
the United States Il Canada Express
Company, in Manchester. last week, by
taking his dime and neglecting to give
him some meat. Horace evidently didn t
understand why his goods We're not forth
coming, but waited patiently, keeping a
sharp eye on the young man all the while
and following his every movement. After
Il few minutes spent in this way he began
to comprehend, and decided to play q lit
tie joke in return. So he coolly walked
up to the bench, seized q quarter of lamb,
and waltzed away with indignation and
triumph depicted in every wag of his
tail while the practical joker was lett to
reflect sadly upon the uncertainty of all
things human and canine.
