A Lover Of Shakespeare.

ONE of the most noted characters on
the border twenty years ago was old
Jim Bridger, of Fort Bridger, in Utah.
On one occasion he came to New York.
He did not like the narrow downtown
streets with high buildings on each side,
and complained that he had once lost
his way in "Dey Street Canon" and
had been rescued with difficulty by
the police. He liked the theaters, and
expressed the utmost delight at a per
formance of the midsummer Nights
Dream.'' He had no clear idea who
Shakespeare was, but conceived and de
veloped the most extravagant admira-
ton for him.
Returning to the Fort, he sold stock
and supplies to emigrants and other
travellers as in time past. One day a
man wished to buy some oxen, and Jim
said he could have any except one
yoke, which he had made up his mind
to keep at all hazards. In the morning
a messenger came to say that he wanted
this yoke, and none other.
"He can't have 'em," said Jim.
'There's no use talkin'."
"Well, he wants them, and is Just
a-waitin' for them, " said the messenger
"He's a-settin' there, readin' q book
called Shakespeare"
"EhP" yelled Jim, jumpingto his feet.
''Did you say-ShakspeareP Here, curse
you, give me my boots"
He ran to the corral.
"Stranger," said he, ''iest give me
that book, and take them oxen.''
ooh, no." said the man. "I only
brought the book to read on the way.
l will give it to you"
"Stranger,n - said Jim resolutely, 'iest
you take them oxen, and give me that
book" And so the man did.
Jim hired a reader at fifty dollars per
month, and listened TO Shakespeare ev-
cry evening. ALI went well, until one
night, as the reader came to the propos-
ed murder of the Princes in the Tower,
Jim sprang from his seat, with blazing
eyes, and yelled, in thunder tones,
''Hold on there! Jest wait till 1 git my
rifle, and I'll shoot the cursed scoun-
drel!'
As one of his old "pards'' Justly re-
marked, a sincerer compliment was
never paid to Shakespeare. e.-Editor'S
DTaWer, i1l Harper's Magazine.

4 DEPARTING SHIP.

A COOL. wide stretch OF ocean lies,
Along the sunlit, shining land,
And ci0udlesq depths Of purple skiog
Bend down ON either hand.
Dim woods show dark on yondor height,
And gray rocks crown n rugged steep
And glowing I'm the golden light

To what far country is she bound;
II favOring winds win for her wait
Or storms surge wildly round.
gnze upon the tF8pic sea
That parts before her rapid way;
hear the cyclones whistle free
Among the driving spray.
Far off, where burns the southern Cross,
She rounds a tempest haunted cape;
Black waves against its masses toss,
Black clouds its cold rocks drape.
Palm crowned the distant islands lie,
The muimurous waves sing soft and low
As, while the fragrant Winds sweep by,
They slowly ebb and dow.
The shores are rich with radiant blooms
And vague and deep the coral sprays
Amid the silent opal glooms
Their snowy whitenoss raise.
Here, like a misty cloud that pales
When mornings glory through the might
Sends far it's amber beams her sails
Pass utterly from sight.
The lonely water sinks and swells,
The gray gulls lmger near the shore;
Their low cries sound like sad fareweis-
VIII she come back no more?

Centre Democrat. [volume] (Bellefonte, Pa.) 1848-1989, 1880-01-01

In our issue of November l3, we
published q circular from General
Walker, Superintendent of Census,
addressed to farmers, giving informa-
tion as to what questions will be
asked, and what answers required by
the census taker, when he makes his
appearance in June. We desire again
to call the attention of our farmer
readers to this matter, and urge upon
them the Importance of giving it
proper attention. "a wonderful de-
velopment of agricultural production
has taken place since 1870, especially
in the cereals and in feeding of beeves
for quality in meat production. Be
sides, the eyes of the world are just
now turned upon our agriculture as
never before, on account of the strong
competition it offers on every hand.
All these considerations conspire to
make this census far more important
than any of its predecessors" For
thoroughness in this agricultural part
of the enumeration, dependence must,
in large measure, be placed upon the
farmers, who should educate and
prepare themselves for their part OF
the work. "The superintendent de.
sires all farmers to prepare themselves
in advance to note the number ol
acres in each crop, estimate carefully
the quantities of products harvested
and calculate their true values. The
numbers and value of farm stock,
implements, etc, should also be fixed
in advance. If these facts are not
carefully developed during this fall
and winter, the returns to the enum.
orators will be q tumble of guess,
work of very uncertain value" il
farmers will turn to our issue oil
November l3, before referred to, and
cut out the circular of General Wal
kcr, they will find it an easy matter
to prepare their answers as there
directed.

Every Farmer His own Miller.

In the long ago il was much cheaper
for % farmer to take his grain to the
miller, and by paying him one. eighth or
twelve and one half per cent, have his
grinding done at n fair price. Now, the
miller will obligingly exchange from l8
to 35 pounds OF -four for bushel Of
wheat, so that if the wheat is worth so
cents bushely. the farmer pays the
miller lG bushels of wheat for barrel
of -four, or nearly 10 per cent. of his
wheat for the grinding. The charge
for grinding corn is 10 cents per bushel /;
that il, the husbandman Is permitted to
pay the miller one load of corn for
grinding another. Such being the case,
an agriculturist cannot afford to feed
stock ground food, or indulge very lib.
orally in wheat bread, unless he does
his own grinding. Good farm mills are
now so cheap, that it is real economy to
buy one.
We find the above in the Rural
New Yorker, and quote it as written,
although the figures will not hold in
this section. The charges for grind
ing are not so great here as those
given by the Rural, but they are high
enough to prove quite a burden TO
the farmer, and to cause many-per-
haps most-to feed their grain whole
rather than incur the expense of
grinding. Careful observation has
convinced us, from our own expert
ence, that 1t pays 10 grind all grain fed,
and particularly when it can be
ground at so small expense as upon
one of the farm mills mentioned by
the Rural. OF these, there are many
varieties, and Of them all, actual ex-
perience leads us To- believe that the
best and cheapest for the average
farmer are of the class known as the
coffee mill style, which have the lever
for furnishing the power directly
connected TO them, and may be used
independent of any other power.
Our own is of this pattern, and was
made by J. \. Field, Son Il Co., OF
st. Louis, it being our choice after a
careful examination of all that we
