Iberia Items.
(By our Special Correspondent Jason )


News is scarce so | guess l will
have to draw on my Imagination to
make up for the deficiency. The
iberia Literary Society's newspaper
is called, and very appropriately,
''The iberia Back Biter,' and the
character Of the paper is in accord
ance with its name. Anonymous
writer's can throw out insinuations
and insults at little girls and old men
and women and get fools to applaud
their sharp thursts.
Mr.. James Keegan says if the gent.
leman who stole his barrel of syrup
from the Sorghum mill last fall will
only return the barrel, or leave it at
Sleepy Eye, addressed to him, he will
be thankful to the thief, and no
questions asked.
l have been considerably fattered
to-day by several persons for my
humble share in contributing to the
Review. They told me they looked
anxiously for the Review every Sat.
urday morning, and the Iberia items
were the first thing they looked for
and that they should be dissappoint.
ed if there was nothing from Jason,
but probably they were fooling or
fattering me, ! don't know which.
Editor REVIEW: As your paper is
the only English paper published at
the county seat, and as you have
free access to all the records, you
would confer favor on many OF
your readers by letting US know
what is the total aggregate salaries
of all our county officials and what
portion OF our taxes goes to the State.
We are little anxious to know
what is done with 81, 900, as that
seems to be about the amount that
the people Of this county are taxed.
Isee the St. Paul Globe is follow.

publishing remarks and biographies
Of our law makers. If the Senators
had cultivated their brains to make

bellies they would rival in wisdom

The Osberae BinAe :.

wish to call the attention of all
farmers to the Osborne Self Binder,
which is acknowledged to stand at the
head and front Of all machines Of that
class.
Never since farm machinery has
been first introduced has any machine
made a recorder gained the world
wide reputation in 80 short q time that
this Binder has.
now have one set up in my store
where an examination Of its workings,
as well as its simplicity can not fail
to satisfy you Of its Superior Merits
over all others Of its class, ! have al
so one, belonging to Willford Bushard,
which was used through the entire har.
vest last year and to-day is as good
as when it left the shops. I will not
confront you with bogus kilograms, Of
bogus trials, as some of our COMPETE
tors do, but will refer you with pleas
ure, to the following named gentlemen
in your own vicinity who used them
last year and who will testify to all
we claim:
G. 4 F. Billsing, Of Springfield,
Brown Co. +. Heifran, West Newton.
Willford Bushard, Lafayette. Athe.
mats Henle, Milford, who cut about lO0
acres Of lodged and badly tangled
grain in 1873. G. G.. COodnOw, Receiv.
er Of u. s. Land Office in New Ulm
who says during all harvest his Binder
missedbut 2 b undles.
One Of the very important advantag
es Of this machine is, it requires nc
machinist or an expert to work it
With q boy to drive the team it i.
always ready and willing to do I'll
work, and do it well. It will binl
tight, whether the bundle Is as small
as your finger, or as large as q barrel
It uses less wire per acre than any 9th
er binder made. It runs with perfec
moothness and does not jerk Will

came and wisely located in New Ulm.
For time he was recognized as an &C.

pie most. like monkey myself. Do
you know that I belieye it positive
loss to human beings that they haven't

Just as you can with you hand. Now

to hang on to the platform of crowd

could hold your umbrella with your
tail. II you were walking up and
down the room at night with the ba.

and give him q spoonful of psrsgoric
with your tail. II you wanted to take
your family out for an airing you
could grab q child with each hand and

that you're not built like monkey.

THE MAN ron rHEJURY.


While a pedestrian was rambling
slowly along on the road to High
Bridge last Sunday, he met an indi-
vidual with haggard features, and a
wild, unearthly glare in his eye.

you?"

the pedestrian.

MEDICINAL EFEECTS OF ONIONS.
A mother writes to an English agri-
cultural journal as follows Twice
q week-and it was generally when
we had cold meat minced-I gave the
children dinner which was looked
forward to and hailed with delight.
This was dish of boiled onions. The
little things knew not that they were

pelling what most children suffer from

this remedy alone. 1t was q medical

chest. He did not know at the time.
till told him, that they were good
for anything else.' The editor of the
journal adds: "A case is now under
our own observation in which rheu-
matte patient, AN extreme sufferer, finds
great relief from eating onions freely,
either cooked or raw. He asserts that
it is by no means fancy, and he says

ish baths, galvanism, and nearly all
the potions and plasteres that are ad-
vertised as certain alleviatives or cures.

ADVANTAGES OF STAYING IN
BED. .-
Taking an occasional day in bed,
simply on account of findisposition, is,
however, q very simple and rudlmen-
tary notion of this glorious institution.
Bed is the natural domicile of every
man:
''In bed we laugh. in bed we cry.
And born in bed. in bed we die"
Bayard, the French physiologist,
maintained that man is an animal who
exercises the thinking faculties best in
q horizontal position. Thus, there are
high, artistic, social and intellectual
uses connected with an occasional day
in bed, which imperatively claim dis
cussion. Brinley, the great engineer,
when he was bothered and nuzzled by
some tough problem, always betook
himself to bed until he had solved it.
most people have great kindness for
Lord Melbourne, who, under the af-
fectation of frivolity, used to get up
Hebrew and the Fathers and imper-
turable good humor to bear with his
wife, Lady Caroline, while the pretty
Byron-struck termagant used to smash
the drawing-room furniture. his init
mate friends would find the premier
calmly taking breakfast in bed, with
letters and dispatches strewed all over
the counterpane. The poets hsye been
terrible fellows to get out of bed.
suppose it is because the visions of the
day and of the night sweetly intermin-
gle. The poet Thompson cultivated
laziness as fine art, and thought out
his poems in bed. Pope was q still
worse fellow. When he had . fit of
inspiration on him, he would keep the
servants running about for him all
through the night. He made amends
to them blythe righteousness of his
vails."

THE LARGEST on THE
.sl .ss tla- WORLD. ID

Tho largest orchard in the world is
doubtless that owned and worked very
successfully by Mr.. Robert McKin-
stry, Hudson, Columbia county, N. Y.
The orchard is situated on the east
bank of the Hudson River, cd high
rolling table land, and contains more
than 1900 apple trees, l,700 pears,
1000 cherries, 500 peaches 200 plumbs,
200 crabs, 1000 vines, 600 currAnts,
and 800 chestnuts. The varieties
grown are Rhode Island Greening,
7,OOo;, Baldwin,, 5000; King Of
Thompson county. 5,OOO;' Astrachans,
500; Northern Spy, 500; Wagner,
500; Gravestein, 400; Cranberry Pip
pins. 200; Ben. Davis, 200; Duchess
Of Oldenburg, 200; with Jonathans,
Hubbardstones. Cayugas, vanderveers,
Bellflowers, Pearmins, Peck's Pleas
ant, Twenty-ounce Pippins, Russets,
and others in less number. The pears
are the Bartlett B. d'Anjou, Sherdon.
Seckel, and Lawrence, chiefly. OF
cherries there are twenty-elght varie-
tiess The orchard is remarkably thrift
ty, and the oldes trees are about 20
years old. The soil is dry rolling
gravel, with some limestone; the trees
are planted twenty feet apart, and dc
not seem by any means to be crowded
The ground is plowed several times
in the year, and kept fallow, except
ing when thought advisable,it is seed
ed to clover. The orchard Is inter.
sectcd by roads oyer six miles In
length for the passage of wagons, and
bounded by continuous row Of ap.
pie trees set ten feet apart for four
miles. The apple crop of the pas
year was 10000 barrels, large por.
ton of which was exported to Liver
pool and Glasgow.
