CHARLES O'CONOR.

Some fifty years ago this mans
name appeared in an advertisement
in the New York Shamrock as ''Char-
les O'COnor, Attorney-at-Law lie
was then about fOur-and-twenty. The
young attorneys clients were few and
poor. We have seeni it stated that his
services were enlisted in one case in
which the total sum involved not
more than SIS. But Mr.. O'Conor was
q hard student. Far into the night,
while all around him was hushed in
sleep, he pored over his books. Far
into the morning too. Many and many
time did the rays Of the gray dawn,
stealing in through the garrett win

end of his penny candle, and "throw

tireless industry and this all-conquer-

up the ladder of ambition. Up, up,
up! Until to-day Charles O'Conor's
name floats from tho very pinnacle
of the Temple Of Law.
We commend this part of the story
of Mr.. O'Conor's life to the attention
of young Irish-Americans. Mr..
O'Conor himself was the son of poor
Irish parents. They came from land
where rank and title-the robber's S
title-are everything; where MAN is
nothing. From land of lords and
slaves. From land of confiscatiOns
and rack-rents. From a land of igno-
rance and bondage; of massive opu-
lence on the one side and abject
poverty on the other; of towering pal
aces and lowly novels; of naughty
pride and crawling sycophancy. From
land of rags for the children of the
many and of purple and fine linen for
those of the few: of potatoeS-and-salt
and butter-milk for the native people
the toilers of the land to whom the
: great GoD had given the land-and all
[ the good things of the earth. and in
, the waters under the earth, for the
indolent and rohber brood. From
such land came Charles O'Conor' s
parents three-quarters of a century
/ ago. They had belonged to the serf
, class. They made exiles of them.

bonds Of the st. Paul and Pacific and

MES are selling, for our Minnesota
farmers to get cheap farms for their
boys, in this state, which will soon
pass away and which will never come
again. Do not miss it. DO not let
strangers have all the beuefit OF the
good chance which has come to your
doors.
By all accounts there is fair pros
pect, now that both in Swift and Ste :
yens counties there will be grand
crops, en- the extensive tracts of land
broken, within the last few years, in
this pertion of the state and that the
ravages of the grasshoppers will be
very local and insignificant. If these
conjectures turn out true, there will
be tide of immigration up the main
line ef the st. Paul and Pacific rail
road next spring, sufficient to occupy
almest every valuable quarter section
of land within ten miles of the track,
we would wish to see our young Min
nesetians, our farmers sons, ahead OF
this immigration wave from the east.

was already comfortably settled to
break up his home and go again upon
new farm. No, we say to such,

can renew your interest in frontier

GET THE BOYS FARMS.

It is fact, to be greatly regretted
that a large number Of farmers sons
have an idea that farm life is the
most laborious, Improbable and least
ENJOYABLE, they can adopt. and with
this false idea in their heads, they
are restless and anxious to seek en-
ployment in some city or town where
they fervently believe that young men
of their age are enjoying positions,
enjoyments and profits, far beyond
what they could ever hope for by toll
ing on land. :.
That such view of agricultural
life and city life is erroneous, could
be easily shown, that it is fraught
with evil results to u great many
worthy young men and to the COM
monwealth. in general. is equally true,
but, we will content ourself, for the
present, in merely pointing out one
way by which farmers can counteract
this restlessness. useless longings for
.sgreen hills far away and WEAKNESS
of farm life.
In the first place farmer should
be always careful to make his home
pleasant for his boys, he should be as
anxious that they should play as work
for call work and no play makes Jack
a dull boy"
In the second place when the boy is
grown up he should have a profitable
interest in his work. Something be
yond mere wages, which places chile
only in the position of a hired help
and this very idea, when it enters in
to the mind of a young man has a chat

The Superintendent of the Eastern State
Experimental Farm of Pennsylvania, in his
annual report, gives the following in relation
to success in orcharding: "Permit me to
call your attention to the product of our Or
chard. We are giving this department more
attention and are amply repaid. 1t is, as you
know, only small orchard, selected aud
planted more for testing varieties than for
profit, yet its gross returns are nearly 5000,
besides fruit consumed and various root crops
raised among the trees. Our treatment of
this orchard, which seems to be successful, is
surface cultivation, good munuring, as far as
our means will permit, scraping and washing
the trees with an alkaline mixture and
dressing Of five or six pounds of muriate of
potash to each tree. The trees were re-
marked as retaining their foliage and perfect
ing their fruit to an unusual degree. Some
of our Bartlett pears weighed over pound
each, and were the finest exhibited at the
fairs where they were shown. Our selected
Bartletts and Sieckel were also very fine, and
sold at 81 to So per bushel. From our expe-
rience we could safely urge farmers of Eastern
Pennsylvania to pay more attention to fruit
growing, and can assure them that better
treatment and more intelligent labor eXpend-
ed on their orchards will pay"

Mature Vaccination.

Present indications are that our plants will
go into winter quarters in better condition
than for many years. Some writers learned
In vegetable physiology assert that all injury
to growth is caused by imperfect wood and
not by intense cold at all. There is some
truth in this, we may all admit, but perhaps
the general application is almost too sweep
ing. Be that as it may, if ever we have had
a fair opportunity of testing its truthfulness,
we shall certainly have it the coming winter,
for never before was there more propitious
autumn for thoroughly ripening up the
growth than this one-mild, even tempera-
ture, and scarcely a frost to hurry vegetation !;
but, instead, a gradual, healthy change from
growth to maturity, such as will leave the
cells and tissues of vegetation in condition
to Withstand any reasonable amount of rougn
weather that may possibly be in store for us.

the Libocedrus, Deodar Cedar, the Cupres-

Feed and Breed Of Dairy Cows.

DIR. E. l.. Sturtevant, of South Farming
ham, Mass, makes the following summary of
conclusions at which he has arrived on tn s
subject, after many years of study and pract =
cal experiments:
1. The production of butter is largely de-
pendent on breed.
2. There is structural NIT to the pre-
duction of butter to each COW.
3. When a COW is fed to this limit, in
creased food cannot increase the product.
A. That the superior cow has this struct-
ural limit at a greater distance from ordinary
feed and is more ready to respond 10 stimuli
than the inferior COW.
s. That consequently the superior cow is
seldom fed to her limit, land as practical con-
cluson, increased feed with superior lot of
cows will increase the butter product, but if
fed to an inferior lot of cows, waste can but
be the result.
6. That the character of the food has some
influence on the character of the butter, but
even here breed influences more than food.
z. That there is no constant relation be-
tween the butter product and the cheese pro-
duct.
s. That the caseine retains a constant
percentage, and that this percentage does not
appear to respond to increase of food.
9. That the casein appears to remain
constant without regard to the season.
tV' 1ud1 luCIcaso Ill Luo 4udutlIy vi mlik Is
followed by an increase in the total amount
of casein.
II. That insufficient feed acts directly to
check the proportion of butter, and has a
tendency to decrease the casein of the milk
and substitute albumen.
IL. The best practice of feeding is to regu-
late the character of the food by the charac-
ter of the animal fed; feeding superior cows
nearer to the limit of their production than
inferior cows; feeding, if for butter. more
concentrated and nutritious foods than for
cheese; feeding for cheese product succulent
material which will increase the quantity of
the milk yield.-Butter, Cheese and Egg re-

Bleeding at the Lungs.

fUTNAM, CUn1., MATCH Z0 1909.
Gentlemen-I avail myself of this opportunity to
cay word In behalf of DR.. WISTAk'S BALSAM
OF WILD CHERRY, which 1 have made use of in
most beneficial results. My wife being of delicate
habits has always been troubled with hard, dry,
hacking cough, whenever taking little cold, and
has employed various specifics without obtaining
any relief until prevailed upon to test the virtues Of
WISTAR'S BALSAM, the effect of which has been
truly astonishing.
More than year since young man belonging in
this place was taken with bleeding at the lungs in
connection with most severe cough, and was
finally given over to die by best physicians and
him as victim. Learning these facts my wife sent
him bottle of the BALsAM, which he took and in
was at his accustomed occupation, snatched, as il
were, from the very jaws of death. In many other
cases we have administered the BALsAM to the con-
sumptive, and always with the best of success.
These statements are simple facts, which can be
vouched for at any time by calling on me at my
store. Iremain truly yours,
