freak of nature not often seen.
Mr.. U. e. Peters has bought
the stage line between Ely mines

know about handling horses isn't
worth knowing.
MIR. VIM. Stephenson has one
of the best orchards in this vicinity.
He 'treated" on nice ripe apples

The excursion over the Pas.
sumpsic Railroad, under the man
agement of Mr.. Farr, seems to be
just what the people want in these
hard times. All Of the excursions
have been largely attended, and

ure was gotten up to intimidate the
people of the South, eInbolden the ig
norant blacks and foist Radical car
pet-bag thieves into Office. The meas
ure was a pet of the Grant party and
villaiiz6ds device by which to retain
their hold upon the offices of the
South. One by one the infamous war
measures, and the still rsore infamous
measures devised by hatred and ma
lice in times of peace. by the fanatics
of the North, is being declared uhcon-
stitutional. We shall not wholly de-
spairas long as an MISUNDERSTANDING
rebuke5 partisan meanness and malice
on part of our prosecutors. How many
more of these Radical paintings are
to go the same way, time only can
tell. As for us, we hail with pleasure
the coming of the time, when party

government. Until tie North can for

Cheap and Good Food for Cows.

A correspondent to the fernando
(SLiss. Press, a. w. Stokes, gives
the following recipes for feeding
stock. Perhaps our farmers may use
them to ADVANTAGE:
First-I SOW peas broadcast, three
pecks to a busLel per acre in May,
narrowing them in after breaking the
ground well: then in september | pull
them up just when a few begin to dry,
and make hay out of the vines and
peas. | get 1000 and 5000 pounds per
acre Of hay that is eaten by cattle and
horses as eargerly as if it were the best
clover. Pulling up is far preferable
to moving, as cattle seem to love the
root better than the tops and it is said
to be more nutritious. No manuring
is necessary, and one acre in sowed
peas is worth six of fodder.
Second-CoOked cotton seed-I set
two large stock kettles in a brick fur
mace furnace costing So to So, and
with 10 cents worth of wood the ket-
ties being covered when boiling, |
cook. 100 pound cotton seed at Il time,
to which | add after cooking 1 bushel
of wheat brand to 2of boiled seed, and
the year round feed my..milk cows
on it twice a day, cheaper thad any
body can feed them otherwise, and for
years, have had the fattest cows and
the most milk and butter of anybody
around here. l buy seed at 80 cents
per 100 hundred pounds, brand by the
ton at IS cents'to S1'per 100 pounds.
l alwayaadd a.little salt TO prevent
scOurs.

Scarlet Fever.

The London Scalpel, the highest
medical authority in the world, gives
the following as an infallible cure for
either scarlet fever orsmall Pox.:
Sulphateo of zinc, one grain; foxglov5e
(digitalis), one gram; ha = ;teaspoon-
full of sugar mixed with twt tables
spoonsful of water. Give one teas
poonful every hour. Either disease
will disappear in less than twenty four
hours. For small children reduce TIE
above with water according to age.
The writer Of this copies it from
the original, cut from the Scalpel more
than six years since, and has used it
with perfect success in small pox, and
has every confidence of its infailibilty
in scarlet fever if taken in its early
stage.-Mem. Ledger.

4 WISE Systcm Of RetrenchInent.

Since lhG acceptance of the Presi
dency of the Louisville, Nashville and
Great Soutern Railroad by Hon. +. d..
Standiford, says the Louisville Ledg-
er, many evidence have tr&anSpired of
his pre-eminent skill as ? judiciOus di-
rector Of such a great incorporate insti-
tuition. Almost Immediately after his
accession, a large force fsurplus men
were discharged for commandments,
and otherjudiciols retrenchments have
been observed almost up to the present
writing. Retrenchment is better thar
reform, inasmuch as it,does not clash
With the conveniences Of established
routine, or give rise toirregularities or
others sources of embarrassment. By
theinstitutiOn of such methods ofpro.
cedure' the stock of the road has given
evidence of their wisdom and utility in
an already healthy approximation to-
wards par value. Both the stockholders
and tie travelling public feel that the
interest of the road are in safe, wise
and enlightened hands, so that nor
NAL condition of its prosperity is al
ready foregone conclusion.
