1t is better and cheaper TO
double the production Of the farm
you have than to buy the farm
adjoining and increase your acre
age, unless stock-farming is the
chief object. One acre Of meadow
in good condition will produce
hay enough to keep a COW six
months but it takes three acres
to pasture her six months.
In very cold weather animals
will relish and eat provender
which they will barely sniff at
and leave III such warm weather
as we are now having. OF course
their tastes must be watched and
humored, otherwise they will fall
away in flesh and wool. The own

STILL TISKERING.-The Greensburg
Democrat says: "Some time ago this
Revenue District was merged in the
one at Pittsburg, and Collector Davis
was retained over the consolidated dis
trict. Now there is rumor through
Fayettc county politician, just re-
turned from Washington City, that
the Treasury Department has decided
to form new Revenue District of the
counties of Fayette, Westmoreland, In
diana, Jefferson and Clenrfeld, with
the Collectors office at Uniontown,
and that Mr.. Charles S. Seaton is nam.
cd for Collector. This change will
take several counties from Collector
Davis District, and will wipe out the
Clarion District, of which Mr.. Brown
is Collector. This will leave Mr. Brown
without an Office" Why not wipe
out this herd of Federal officials, and
collect the revenue due the Treasury,
through the State officers. 1t would
not cost hall what it does now, and far
more revenue would find its way into

much right to 60 upon British soil to

RADICAL WAmIEGs.-The Bangor
Wig, reported to bo Blaines organ,
says: at is evident that the President
has reached the parting Of ways, and
he must definitely decide whether he
is to walk with the Republicans or the
Democracy"
The Washington correspondent Of
the New York Tribune writes to his
paper that "the President is for the
moment almost us much out of accord
with his party in Congress as Andrew
johnson was in the first year Of his
separation from the Republicans.
The Washington Republican says
the Democrats are trying to ''secure a
portion OF the fruits of Republican
victory" and pathetically inquiries
GLOW long oh, how long is this raid
to be tolerated by those who have the
power to put stop to 1t at any mo-
ment?"
There was no other motive or rea-
son for the selection of the assortment
OF Liberals who went into the Cabinet
with him than this-that they had
worked with the Republican party on
ly after they had failed to break it up
by working against it, and only be-
cause they thought it easier to break
up the party from within than from
without.-iS. Louis Globe.
The Springfield Republican, although
it supports Hayes, takes occasion to
remind the Republican Senators and
Congressman that their party at last
years election "failed to carry the
country on the popular vote, and only
brought in the Republican candidate
far tho Presidency by gross frauds nm
der bayonct protection in Louisiana
and extreme State rights under
threat OF civil war at Washington"

HERDIS0 CoSoREssMES.- - Nest OF
our readers know how tho Camerons
handle members of our Legislature,
but this hcrding of our Congressional
delegation is new and alarming fca-
ture. just the way Mr.. Cameron was
put on the boards and booked for the
Mission to England, is related by the
Washington correspondent of tho Chi
eago Times as follows: "Don Cameron
invited the delegation to his house,
and when there he asked those pres.
ent to signify their wishes in the mat
ter. Judge Kelley spoke up timidly
and said something about Morton Nc
Michael, but before he had a chance
to say anything further, Harry White,
Don Cameron's stool-pigeon, nomina-
ted Simon Cameron. This scheme fell
like a bomb.shell in the midst Of the
Republican delegation They were in
Senator Don Cameron's house and his
guests, and could not demonstrate so
freely as if they had been elsewhere.
Before there was any opportunity,
however for an expression Of opposi.
tion, Colonel Thompson, Hipplc-Mitch-
ellis old law partner, burst forth into
blooming culogy Of Simon Cameron.
This was also pre-arrangcd. Then Don
Cameron asked White il be wonld put
this in the form of motion, and Mr.
White did so. Mr.. Cameron then ask.
ed II there were any present who OBJ
jected to the motion, and tic situation
at this stage WINS very comical. There
was not man in the delegation who
had not some little postmasterships
and district appointments standing in
the Senate for confirmation, and the
objection of Don Cameron to any one
Of them would be TO kill them, so no
one objected, although they were very
angry for having been brought into
this trap.
