Opera OF Esther was produced in Harper &
Theatre for the third time. A good house
considering the extremity bad weather
greeted the Society, and they showed
marked appreciation throughout. The
weather unfortunately has been against
the attendance on this work, and many
who bought tickets for Saturdays per-
Torrance were unable to be present The
cast was the same as before. but an extra
act preceded. which makes the story more
complete and adds very materially to the
dramatic interest A desire has been ex-
pressed to have the opera repeated in
in Davenport or Moline, or even in Har-
per's Theatre at some future date. but no
definite action has been taken.

of MIR. Miller, and his leaving viii be

sheep raising as an important and
essential part Of mixed husbandry to
our farmers. There is no better, and
more remuneratiye business, year af-
ter year, than sheep husbandry, for
the simple reason that the increase
of population is so constant and
great as to keep up steady home
demand for wool and all kinds of
wooden fabrics. The statistics show
that the wooden product in the State
of West Virginia, in 1879, was about
$260,000, and the value of imports
(of wool and wooden goods) over
home production was over SO, 1000, 900
1t is well authenticated fact that
West Virginia, with it's immense
mountainous regions, is better adapt
ed to the remarkable health and wool
growing business, than any other
State in the Union, the product of
the above three millions paid for i'm
portation might and ought to have
been exported, which would have
been net gain of six millions to
our own citizens and State. The sheep
husbandry is far more certain and
ror, ho 10
ness. The Clarksburg Telegram,
published in the great cattle grow
ing county OF Harrison, has found
out that there is more profit in sheep
than in cattle. 1t says: "We hope
the farmers of this State-especially
of this county-will stock their
farms with sheep hereafter instead of
cattle. The cattle interest is dead so
far as our section is concerned, and
many Of oar farmers have found it
out to their sorrow, Wool brings a
high price, and sheep increase with
wonderful rapidity, giving the farmer
remuneration in several ways.
West Virginia wool is very high in
the markets. and buyers complain of
its scarcity, Instead of buying cat
tie next spring put your money into
sheep of good grade, and the wheels
of the panic will soon roll off your
pocket book, 1t is suicidal to longer
dabble in cattle.-I'uckef Pioneer.

The neanest Man.

Almost every city and town lays
claim to the meanest man, but we
believe that the smallest specimen OF
mean man resides in Newburyport,
says the Herald of that city. A few
days ago he called at a hardware
store, and represented that he was
troubled with mouse in his pantry
at home, at the same time asking the
clerk for the loan of a mouse-trap to
catch the animal. The clerk replied
that was hardly the way business
was done at that establishment, but
informed the gentleman who was be
ing impoverished by the mouse that
a good trap could be purchased for
twenty cents. After some pickering
the bargain was concluded. A few
days afterward, however, in walked
the owner Of the trap with the infor-
nation that he had been successful
in catching the mouse, and that the
article would be no further use t.
him. This was followed by a re-
quest that the storekeeper take back
the trap aud return him the original
price. This was rather stagger in
the way of cheek, bnt the man be
hind the counter quietly took out
twenty cents, passed it over to the m
m, and remarked that he would re-
fund the money and at the same time
present him with the trap. Grace
fully thanking him, the m. m. quiet
ly pocketed the cash and trap, and
walked out with the satisfied air oil
conscious rectitude.

House, FARM AND GARDEN
BUTTER MAKING.

The Earl of Rossbough has issued
a letter to his tenants in Ireland,
which is full of useful hints. We re
produce the following:
'sFor the information Of those who
have not yet been able to make good
butter l offer the following sugges-
tons: Have separate room for
your milk, well ventilated, but not
too light, far away from stable, pig
gerry or manure heap. The floor
should be of flags, tiles or concrete,
very close and evenly made, so that
it can be easily washed without leav
ing any substance behind likely to
create bad smell, as it would be in
furious to your milk and butter.
Clay floors are very bad. Be sure
not to use your milk room for any
other purpose than your milk and
butter. Wash the cows udder be-
fore milking, and your own hands
before commencing with each COW.
Use the finest hair strainer you can
get. Keep all your milk vessels
-scrupulously clean, never use soap in
cleansing up your milk vessels, MOI
even in washing your hands, when
engaged with your milk or butter
Do not keep your milk too long
standing before churning. Twenty
four to thirty six or forty eight hours
according to the temperature of the
weather, will be enough. Avoid al
touching of the butter by the hand
Use the best salt, made very fine
Wash and press all the milk out O
the butter before sailing, using plen
ty of cold spring water. You cannot
be too careful about this. In pack
ing in firkins, get the best you car
OF we'll seasoned oak, beech or ash
clean looking and smooth on the in
aide, and bring them clean to mar
ket. In preparing your frkins le
them be filled the day before wanted
with boiling water, let stand unit
cold, then rinse with clean cold wa
ter, into which couple of handful'
of salt have been put. This will
make your firkins sweet and stanch
Pack your butter in the firkin a.
closely as possible, and send it tt
market as soon as you can. LIE
cleanliness be your constant care
from the milking of the cows unit
you bring your butter to market.
