'SMoN SAYS WIG-wAG."-In answer to our
charge, that the editor of the Bulletin refused to
vote for a competent Democrat for Judge in
preference to an incompetent Republican, on the
ground that he "could not vote for Democrat, -
he replies that he did vote for the Democrat,
and has witness to prove it. Now, which side
is he playing off ont At the time, he took great
credit to himself as a staunch Republican, for
voting for Hubbard, in the face of such bitter
opposition. A year ago, he endeavorsd to draw
around him, as his friends and supporters those
Republicans who stood by Hubbard, because he
had also supported Hubbard, and was true
blue In the last County canvass, one of his IA
vorite charges against Bnrkhalter and the Chief
was that they had opposed Hubbard, and assisted
to elect Democrat. Now be says he has wit
ness to prove that be was deceiving and lying to
those Hubbard men. We have no doubt that he
has witnesses to prove that he is now lying to

Utilizing Frogs.
New \ orK Times

We have story from Middletown,
Conn, that eclipses the marvels ST oleo-
margarine. The people Of that place
have accidentally discovered how to
utilize bulfrogs by converting them into
churners OF butter The discovery was
thus reached: \ farmer in the neigh
borhood, having placed Il pail of milk
III Il spring of water 10 cool over night,
Went there the next morning and found
it is solemnly asserted, instead Of the
pail Of milk, i large bulfrog sitting III
contemplative mood upon Il roll of
fresh butter. The sole explanation is
that the frog had jumped from the
water into the pail, and, in trying to ex-
tricate himself, had, by diligent and con
tinuous strokes of his long legs, churned
the milk into butter Such thing
might happen in rustic Connecticut, but
we will venture to assert that no bull
frog, however energetic and trained, or
however agricultural in instinct, could
in any given time convert the aqueous
kind of milk we get here into butter,
or even into tolerable huttermilk.
Therefore, rs we can receive no benefit
from the discovery, we shall not attempt
to put it iii practice. We shall continue
in our usual barharous fashion TO eat
the hind legs of frogs, and leave it to
Middletown to employ them us natural,
spontaneous, self-acting churners.

much more frequently, and what il most
10 the purpose, nluch more attraceNeiS'
than tie quack advertisement.
The houses which have advertised
most freely and derived the greatest
penent from lneIr expenditure nave
without an exception recognized this
fundamental truth that the newspaper
il infinitely the best medium for reach
ing the public. IL Messrs. Sharpe e.
Co.'S card, recently printed, two great
houses relate their experience. In no
department of business is there prob
ably so much money wasted, tcsti-
lics the Wheeler and Wilson Sewing
Machine Company, and in no depart
ment are good judgment and experience
more requisite" and it is added that
quarter Of century has shown the
superior advantage and economy Of
newspaper advertising over all other
mediums. Messrs. Isaac Smiths Sons
d Co. are not less explicit. eff what
you have to say be strictly true" they
urge, sag Il IN q good newspaper. For
I" forty-seven years nine-tenths Of our
advertising has been done on this
"plan, and of the whole expenditure all
"that we regret is contained in the
"other tenth" It's needless to strength
en- such testimony as this, but it can do
no harm to add one reflection. Bust
ness men are compelled to advertise at
all times. When money is plenty they
wish to attract it; when trade is dull
they desire to awaken attention. In
either case they must resort to adver-
Using. During the flush times" which
ended in 1873 American business men
squandered millions on advertising
schemes which, if they did not come
within the law concerning blackmail
and highway robbery, certainly infring
cd the statutes against obtaining money
by false pretcnses. 1t is not surprising
that the burned business man should
dread further advertising. If, however,
he will calmly review the whole subject
and give to it as much patient thought
ns he gives to any other important de-
partment of his business, he will speed
lily find that he has hitherto been work
ing on false system. He has only to
change il completely and find in u judi
cious patronage Of the newspaper that
return for judicious investment which
such an investment rarel " or never fails
to earn.

dnced Cows need variety Of food
everything which is fed, whether ii DC
lay or grain OF roots should be Of fine
quality. IF cows are to be kept CON
stantly well and are to produce good
quality Of milk, they need plenty of
pure water to drink. This is something
that many cows do not nave, ahd want
of it Is the cause Of much sickness on
their part and the production of great
deal of poor milk. Too many COWS are
obliged to drink from dirty tubs or
troughs in the barntards, while many
others have to 90 to muddy brooks. Of
ten the supply is insufficient, and the
COWS becoming very thirsty drink Il
great deal at time and are injured by
| the excess. Is it matter for wonder
that such COWS do not thrive, and that so
many Of them are unhealthy? s.
Cows also need pure air III order to keep
in good health for any length of time.
This they do not always have. a great
many stables are open enough and plen-
tv Of air gets in, but they are not us
clean as they should be, and the air is
quickly contaminated The use Of dry
earth for bedding, or the sprinkling of a
little gypsum on the floors. would be Il
great Improvement in many stables; it
would not only tend to keep the cows
in better health, but would also, in il
great measure, prevent the absorption Of
bad odors 10y the milk before it is car
ried from the stable. 4.-Good care is
also very important in the preservation
Of the health ofcows, and, consequently
in the production ofgoOd milk. Expo
sure to storms, harsh treatment, worri-
ment by dogs-thesc are among the
causes of the colds, lang diseases and
nervous affections which atflict so many
COWS and render their milk unfit for use.
That man is liable to take cold and be
sick as the result of exposure to a vio-
lent storm every one is aware, but there
seems to be comparatively few people
who imagine that any such thing can
ham COW. Yet many cows take cold
and eventually die Of pneumonia rs the
result of such exposure. Even when
the disease takes milder form, or
seems to be escaped altogether, there is
4 certain degree Of injury almost newt
able. In severe exposure there is al
ways rsil-a risk which it is useless and
often expensive To run. If man is TO
keep cows, it will pay to keep them in
the best possible health. In this way
he can obtain the largest quantity and
best quality Of milk, make the most
money, and take the greatest degree Of
satisfaction in his buSiness.-Rmdi
