HALLOWELL.

MONDAY, June 16.
Is it never going to stop raining? Well,
hardly ever.
The booms along the river banks in this city
are literally crowded with logs.
Mr.. George NJ Stanley, formerly rector of
st. Matthews Episcopal Parish in this city, is
to supply the pulpit of St. Marks at Augusta
for portion of the time while Mr.. Upjohn,
the regular rector, is in Europe
We are exceedingly sorry to hear that Mr..
B. E. Page, one of our most respected citizens,
is very low and that about all hope of his re-
GOV ny has been abandoned
In spite of the frequent rains the river does
not seem to be much above its usual height.
There was no tempe rance meeting in this
city Sunday, but there will be one at the Meth
odlst church on Sunday next at half-past ten
O'Clock. All are invited.

HoneySuckle.

There are few plants in the garden that
demand less care than that favorite climber,
the honeysuckle, but there are none which
it can be more adyantageously bestowed up
on. 1t needs roomy trellises and does best
when the branches are prevented from twin
ing about each other. Whether allowed to
remain on the trellises through the winter,
orlaid down under cover, the best time to trim
them, according to the experience of some
gardeners, is in the spring after the sap has
begun to flow. The dead wood should then
be cut nearly to the living part, but it is
best not to cut so close as to cause the
branch to bleed. 1t would seem that for
more artistic trimming the late fall would
be better time, but there appears to be but
little scientific information in regard to the
subject.

Feeding Cows and Fattening Cattle.
] wish to give my experience with mich
cows, and feeding cattle for market. / will
speak of the cows first My feed during the
past winter has been ground corn, sheaf oats,
and clover hay. feed one gallon of corn
and cob meal to each COW twice each day.
Meal alone in the morning, and cut oats with
meal in the evening, at the rate of one small
sheaf to each COW, and in addition twelve
pounds of clover hay per day to each COW.
The two gallons of corn and cob meal weigh
just nine pounds, and at the rate of twenty
five cents per bushel, is three and one-half
cents per day for each COW. Counting clover
hay at five dollars perton, and oats at twenty
five cents per dozen, find that my COWS con-
sumed about seven cents worth of food each
day. We are feeding at present seven cows,
ranging in weight from 800 to 100 pounds,
and from three to five years old-three Ayr
shires, two Jerseys and two Durhams. Five
OF them have been milking five or six months,
and two of them four or seven weeks, and
they are giving at present from eighteen to
twenty pounds each, ON an average, per day.
have practiced weighing my feed for my
cows the past three winters, and when / first
began was surprised to find how cheaply I
kept my COWS. Waldo can feed all the corn
fodder he wishes to, but Imuch prefer clover
nay as being more convenient, less bulky,
and making better manure stabbed and
fed, during the past winter, sixteen head of
grade Durham cattle, all but two coming this
spring. Fourteen steers fed twelve weeks,
gained 2, 44O pounds, Or nearly two pounds
per day. Their average weight when began
to feed was 1900 pounds, and when Iquit at
the end of twelve weeks, ,460 pounds; they
consumed at the rate of twenty-three pounds
OF corn, and cob meal each, per day, or one
bushel of corn in three days, and in addition
f.een pounds each of clover hay per day.
l also fed two young cows coming five years
old this spring. One of them weighed $50
pounds when began to feed, and at the end
OF twelve weeks her weight was 1, 5Opounds;
the other weighed 1, 400 pounds when be-
gan to feed, and at the end of thirteen weeks
and four days her weight was LOO pounds
and weighed "a hours off of water, her net
gain being 1919 pounds per day. A great
many farmers claim that cattle can not be
made to gain in weight in winter, but it is
all a mistake. Good stabling and proper
feeding will make beef almost as fast as blue
grass.-Ohio Farmer.

Greenback Element Solid.

Washington advices say the
Green hackers are in excellent spir-
its. claiming that they are as sure
to control the next House as it
meets. They are somewhat disap
pointed in Ewing. who finds the
Democratic party good enough
Greenback party for him, but they
claim to be able to let him go and
still control the House by holding
the balance of power. Democrats
who laughed at the idea at first,
now admit that it is getting serious.
If California should go solidly re
publican in September, electing four
Congressmen, the Democratic goose
would be cooked.
