Rev. IS, KalloCh defended himself be.

indoors, when DeYoung shot him in the
back.
A crowd Immediately seized the car.

fully kicked and bruised, and would, no
doubt, have been killed on the spot had
not an unusual number Of policemen
come suddenly to the rescue and hurried
him TO jail. The city is intensely excited.
The police did not think DeYoung safe
in jail, and had made arrangements to
hurry him to Fort Alcatraz. At present
the spirit of the multitude is aroused to
prevent any removal Of DeYoung from
the jail. There never was timc when
San Francisco was more angry.
Kalloch is shot through the left lung,
just above the heart. Physicians say that
with his strong constitution there is
bare possibility of his recovery. The
military arc under arms and the police on
duty in the event of a disturbance.

Line Upon Line.

Judge Pierce of Philadelphia, in an ad-
dress to the grand jury, declared that in that
city there are about seven thousand taverns,
or public drinking places this being an
average of one tavern to every one hundred
inhabitants, or in fact, to every twenty-five
adult males in the entire city. He also de-
clared that of forty-four thousand nine hun
dred and nineteen arrests in the city from
all causes during 1876, there were twenty
four thousand five hundred and eleven, or
more than one-half of the entire number, for
intoxication or liquor selling. His careful
estimate of the cost Of the traffic to the public
shows fully 81 100000 per annum for the ar
rest, conviction and punishment of its VIC
tins in Philadelphia, in addition to S2l ,000,-
600 squandered here in the purchase Of liquor
by its consumers. In the face of these
figures the words Of Judge Pierce seem none
too strong when he says I" Is it wonder
that when hard times come there is so much
suffering among that class of our citizens
whose hard earnings are thus diverted from
the savings institutions to indulgencies
which are destructive to both health and
happiness But this deplorable traffic comes
freighted to us with greater burdens than
those which affect material wealth. 1t brings
in its train the broken health and squandered
fortunes of thousands; the signs and broken
hearts of mothers, wives, sisters, and chill
dren; widows and orphans, whose bitter
tears are doubly bitter when they remember
the cause of this desolation. Is it not
wonder, then, that as citizens having regard
TO our material interests, as men having q
sympathy with our felowmen, and as Chris
tians having regard to the highest moral in
terests of our fellow-beings, we are so supine
our efforts to relieve us of this great evil 2"

Good Things in Randolph.

THE FOUNDING APPLE.-G. +. Nutting
of Randolph writes us thus "Among the
beautiful towns of Vermont whose fields are
being richly covered with grass and grain,
one may not fail to notice the improved
methods and implements of husbandry in
passing over the old hill road through
Randolph. The general appearance of all
the farms is for the better The gain in
dwellings, and especially in barns, is quite
apparent. The old ones were too small and
unhandy, with too much pitching up hill
and moving away Yet perhaps (save
the new and spacious academy boarding
house) nothing is more apparent than the
increased attention to choice apples. Sew
eral new varieties are in bearing and show
good characteristics of endurance and use
fulness. The Founding introduced
twenty-five years ago from Groton, Mass, is
fast becoming a standard market apple, and
is very hardy. Ripening from late August
to November, it is long time in use. The
trees bear young and appear to endure our
winters as well as the forest trees. A single
tree in my garden just twelve years old has
borne more than six barrels
REMARK BY THE EDIToR.-Mr. Nutting
was kind enough to send us three young
trees of the Founding this spring, and we
shall take pleasure in noting and recording
its adaptation to a still more northern eli
mate than that of Randolph.

The Liquor Interest.

The liquor traffic, as represented by brew
ers' associations, wine and spirit traders
societies, liquor leagues, saloon-keepers' as
sociations, etc, has exhibited unwonted ac-
tivity, offensive and defensive, the past year.
State legislatures aud the congress of the
United States are watched and manipulated
to obstruct and defeat temperance legisla-
ton, and to increase the legal facilities of
manufacturing and vending strong drink.
In the caucus and at the polls the liquor
traffic is a factor whose presence and power
aspirants for official station, national and
state, are frequently made painfully con-
scious of. 1t knows no party distinctions,
but seeks thoroughly to subordinate all par
ties to its dictation and control. 1t respects
no law which in anywise limits its own
growth and power. Wherever it is domin.
ant it paralyzes justices and controls largely
the actions of the courts. IL the more dar-
ing of its law-breaking representatives are
subject TO arrest, frequently they escape
trial, conviction, or punishment. In con-
spicuous instances, in the past year in this
state, they have been able to command gu
bernatorial pardon when all else has failed
them. They neither regard man nor fear
God, and would wholly ignore or destroy the
Sabbath. But, fortunately, though powerful
they are not omnipotent.-Annuai Report
Of National temperance Society.

More About JERSEYS.

Our friend A. d. A. of Montpelier, who
has before favored us with reports of his
herd Of Jersey cows and heifers, writes us Of
the latter that,
"They came in early, and on trial one made
one and one-fourth pounds, one one and three
sixteenths pounds, and one one and ten-sixteenths
pounds of butter per day. The fourth one did
not test, but am pretty well satisfied with her.
Regarding the quality Of Jersey beef he says: &c
killed three-year-old heifer last fall, after feed
ing her month, which dressed six hundred and
forty-three pounds. had MIXED her two seasons,
and when two years old she made over one and
one-fourth pounds of butter per day, but last fall
she lost the use of part OF her bag Better meat
we never had-tender and rich.' Referring to
other matters OF dairy experimentation, he says:
" In a recent issue you quote from the Country
Gentleman Professor Arnold's estimate Of twenty
or twenty-five per cent Of butter from a given
quantity of cream, which is carried TO fifty per
cent by an other contributor, who calls for an
explanation. have one eightyear-old COW, half
blood, whose milk have tested for butter several
times, aud never taken more than sixteen pounds
OF milk for pound of butter, sometimes much
less. She is not n large mixer, but call her
very rich butter COW. have tried the cream from
her milk but once, as follows: In the month Of
March, 1877, weighed the second milk after she
came in, getting two hundred thirteen and one
half pounds for the week, daily average thirty
and one-half pounds. The milk weighed two anG
one-fourth pounds to the quart, and tfor one day.
produced three pounds of cream. From this
stirred two and one-half pounds of butter after
being washed and before sailing, or pound OF
butter from twelve and one-half pounds OF milk
REMARKS BY THE EDrToR.-This yield of
eighty-three per cent of butter from cream
shows very perfect separation and careful
skimming, and goes to support a statement
of ours which elected the criticism of a
writer who claims great authority as dairy
scientist. Our statement was that pure
cream is simply ungathered butter-no
change being effected in churning save the
mechanical one of aggregating the invisible
butter globules into visible masses by
forcible contact at the proper temperature
for adhesion. The experiment has been
tried of putting thick sweet cream into
bag and burying it in the ground. The milk
adhering to the butter globules passed out
by capillary attraction into the soil, leaving,
to all appearance, perfectly separated butter

But if there were no legal credit there would
be no security, and the loss of the unfair
transaction would enure, every time, to the
lender. Capital could find no profit there.
IL would have TO be invested in some pro-
ductive enterprise that would give employ
ment to labor, without enslaving it. Natu'
raj laws being left free to assert themselves
in this matter, capital would be what 1t is
designed to be, an universal benefit, and
contests between the laborer and capitalist
would then be unheard of, because one would
have no advantage over the other. We hope
to live to see the day when the legal credit
system will follow the system of chattel
slavery to the limbo of worn-out barbarisms,
and we don't believe we should live to be
a centenarian, either.
In our next article we shall have some
thing TO say of credit money, and conclude
with review of the whole subject.

Quality OF Seeds.

Mr.. Gregory of Marblehead, Mass, one of
our most skillful seed-growers, read paper
before the Connecticut Board of Agriculture
last winter, in which, referring to the above
subject, after speaking strongly of the duties
of the seedgrower, he says;
"Now, as to what the public owe the seed
dealer. The public owe the seed-dealer fair crit
icism OF his seed. Intelligent conscientious seeds
men often have complaints like this The onion
seed you sent me was good for nothing tproduced
scullions.' He (the dealer) knows all about that
seed. ltcame out OF the same barrel from which he
supplied two or three hundred Others and ninety
nine out OF every hundred pronounced 1t all right;
and II one lot was pure, OF course the rest was
pure. The trouble was that the man who makes
the complaint undertook TO raise his onions on q
a piece Of land not adapted for the crop, or did
not manure 1t sufficiently, or cultivate 1t right,
and he had poor crop. But nine times out OF
ten, such failures are laid on the back Of the
scotsman, and as matter OF policy, we settle the
matter by sending him present OF seed, know.
ing all the time that the trouble WAS outside OF
the scotsman, and belonged to the grower"

Quite True.
Mr. w. j. Fowler, writing in the Country
Gentleman, says;

Mr.. w. j. Fowler, writing in the Country
Gentleman, says;
1t is always safe to assume that the long-estab-
lished practices of farmers are founded in good
reason. Whoever suggests changes should do so
with becoming modesty and caution. 1t is this
which makes the work OF the agricultural writer
SO difficult. Farmers naturally distrust men who
give themselves to violent innovations. 1t proves
that they are not practical workers. but theorizers
and the losses from following unsound theories
are more severe than farmers can afford So
much OF what farmers know about their business
is learned from experience, that they are natu-
rally distrustful of other methods. Experiment
Is the necessary condition of farming. Not until
we try can we certainly know the result, and re-
peated trials are needed to give any method an
assurance OF success.
This seems to us to be very sound talk.
A farmer is far more likely to acquire an
increase of knowledge in his business by an
exchange of experiences with another far
mer, than from any amount of theorizing
by writers Of little or no practical acquaint-
ance with the matter. Education gives
skill in reasoning from known facts, but
practice gives knowledge of facts from
which to reason. When we can, therefore
combine the reasoning power of trained
Il. e. an educated) mind with the observa
tions Of experience we have the best likeli
hood of getting ahead upon sound footing
A right education for industrial uses will
train the observing as well as the reasoning
powers; but we have very little of that a.
yet in our methods of teaching.

POllceman's Testimony.

A number of young men were one day
sitting round the fire in the waiting-room at
the Normanton station of the Midland rail
way, talking about total abstinence societies.
Just then policeman came in with
prisoner in handouts. He listened to the
young mems conversation, but did not give
any opinion. There was also in the room
Mr.. Macdonald, a minister of the gospel,
who, hearing what the young men were say
ing, stepped up to the policeman and said,
Pray, sir, what have you got to say
about temperance ?" The policeman replied,
Why, all I've got to say is, that ! never
took teetotaler 10 York Castle (prison) in

NIGHT ON THE FARM.

'Th dewfal on the lonely farm,
The fiocks are gathered In the fold,
The dusky air Is soft as balm.
The daisies hide their hearts Of gold.
SLOW. drowsy, swinging bells are heard
In pastures dewy, dark and dim.
And In the door-yard trees a bird
Thrills sleepily his evening hymn.
The dark blue deeps are full Of stars;
One lone lamp in the hillside glooms,
mile away, As red az Mars;
The night ia sweet with faint perfumes.
Atbedtime in the quiet house,
Up through the wide, old rooms go,
without lamp; and not mouse
Is stirring. Loudly, TO and fro,
The old clock ticks, and easterly
The ancient windows open hight
Here the suns kiss will waken me,
with bird songs yelling up the sky.
