The Ashtabula Disaster.

The accident on the Lake Shore Rail-
road near Ashtabula entails the greatest
loss of life of any railroad accident that
ever took place in this country, and per-
haps in the world. or the ia passen-
gers OH the train, at least 100 have been
killed and reduced to almost indistin-
guiSiabie ani. The Angola accident OH
the same road only sacrificed about 70
lives, and the Norwalk disaster in the
early days Of railroading, which has al
ways remained the unsurpassed New
England standard of railroad horrors.
only about 80.
all these supreniiies of havoc have
been associated with bridges, and il Is
singular fact that it was reserved for the
ere .of-iron bridges to suffer from the ac-
tuai collapse Of the structure. The
bridge at Ashtabula vas of the Howe
truss pattern, one hundred and fifty feet
in span the stream was small, with only
two or three feet of water, but the rayine
was apparently quite deep.
When the great western express over
the Boston and ALBANY, New York Gen.
trail and Lake Shore lines struck this
bridge Mt low rate Of speed, near nine
o'clock on Friday night, eleven cara and
an engine went down, leaving one engine
standing on the verge of the chasm.

The effect O! low temperature must be

whether it weakens the molecular CO.

In the former case, the molecular debili-

The Cattle for the Farmer.

Every farmer must keep some cattle,
and the cost of keer;ng good cattle is not
greater than sorry ones; yet the profit OF
the former is greater than the latter. In
cattle are three things that make them
profitable &C The farmer F:rst. their
milk and butter qualities secondly, size
for beef and work oxen thirdly, Il hardy.
heaitny STOCK, suited io tie climate. l..
n country like ours where milk aud but
ter enter so largely into the consumption
of every family. it is astonishing that 50
little attention i, given 10 milk COWS, and
while farmers have milk aud butter IN
summer, they let their COWS 60 dry and
have neither milk or butter in winter.
From neglect they hayo degeneratcd,

feeding and should DOT be kept. The
sooner slaughtered the better, but IL good

sOne profit in the surplus butter and
milk for market or for use i'll the family.
The farmer who raises corn. wheat and
hay, as we'll as cotton, can keep good
COW very cheap by feeding equal quanti-
ties of corn-meai and wheat bran and
cotton seed, aud with good supply OF
hay or fodder. is all that is necessary cx-
cept the spring and summer pasture
Many years ago q farmer. in speaking of
good milk COWS, remarked, II tell you.
sir, If you want good milk COW you must
put food in her mouth" and many years
has convinced me that good feeding makes
good COWS for milk and butter. Some
cows arc worthless for milk, and every
farmer should keep only such COWS rs
are good mixers in quantity and quality,
rs the.e is great difference in quality as
quantity. Two gallons of milk from a
good butter COW will turn out 1T least one
pound OF rich. nice butter, when it will
take three gallons of ordinary milk to
make one pound. Therefore be Careful
TO keep only such cows as give good, rich
milk and plenty oft. Most farmers keep
too liany milk cows, when Il smaller
number well kept, will be much more
profitable. Then the farmer wants size
for beef and work oxen, for every farmer
should keep at least one good yoke for
farm purposes. He also needs hardy
stock, easily kept, and suircd to the eli
mate. TO gain these desirable qualities
take our best common Tor gradc) cows
cross them with the Jersey or otter rich
milk stock, and for size cross with best
milk stock of the Durham or Short horns
You must remember that there is not only
Al great difference between our common
or grade cows, but great difference in
the milk and butter qualities as well us
size among these improved breeds. And
you should look well to the sires from
which You breed, because many of them
are bred for sale without reference to
these qualities. Unless the dams and
sires from which they are bred are of the
best stock, they will not be much better
than scrubs. 1t is said by experienced
breeders, that our common or grade pro-
which they are bred. Therefore look at
allthesc things and you will soon have
the best farm cattle.-S0uthern Fa,nler
