OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.

I, the undersigned. have recently read
an article in the Nord- Westen on seed
ers, and desire herewith to give the read
ers of the same some particulars about
it. purchased Monitor seeder and
used the same at my farm, but had some
unpleasant experiences with it the first
year, as the cultivators in heavy soil,
such as there was on my farm, did not
go deep enough. I subsequently dis
covered that the new Van Brunt & Bar
Der seeder worked very well, and to sat-
isfy myself, went to friend living not
far from CIark's Mills who owned Van
Brunt & Barber seeder, and became con-
WINGED that that machine did the best
work both in sowing and cultivating, and
went to Seidl s. Bleser, in Manitowoc,
and traded my Monitor for a Van Brunt
& Barber.
Farmers, satisfy yourselves before you
purchase a seeder. l can recommend the
new Van Brunt e. Barber with clear
conscience as being the best 1 have yet
seen in use. both as regards excellence
of construction and practicability. If

REV. DANIEL Brown, of Fond du lac,
took his first step toward fame in this
city, and We naturally rejoice when his
star is in the ascendant and lament when
it sinks toward the horizon. Mr.. Brown
struck the first blow at Bob Ingersoll at
the Turner Hall in this city little more
than one year ago. He has since been
hammering away at Bob, at heaven and
hell, the ark and the flood. Manitowoc
made Daniel its favorite son and watched
his course with pride. But Daniel is
under cloud. He drew big house at
EauClaire and went on to demonstrate
that Bob would be soon convinced that
there is hell. The audience wanted a
little variety and insisted on having the
reverend gentleman dance a jig. Now,
we submit that for clergyman to break
off suddenly in serious discourse on
heaven and hell, cut pigeon wing and
settle down squarely to jig is hardly
the proper thing. Daniel demurred and
the meeting was broken up in something
like row.

THE Appleton Post is rather severe on

THE Appleton Post is rather severe on
the Lake Shore & Western because the
machine shops will not be located there.
1t speaks of the aid, $4,000, given by
Appleton and then says the road has al
ways Disseminated against Appleton.
Why bless you, that has been a standing
cause of grievance with Manitowoc. APP
pleton gave $4,000, hasn't got the mach
inc shops, and is mad because they will
not be removed there. The county of
Manitowoc gave s216,OO the city of
Manitowoc SIS, 900, and the city of Two
Rivers $50, 900, making in all $4,000
not far from half million. The machine
shops arc here, and are to be removed.
If Appleton has cause for complaint what
expression of anger can do justice to the
outraged feelings of Manitowoc? Man
itowoc has dearly earned the right to
expect some little consideration at the
hands of the railroad. Appleton certainly
has not.

MARCH 9, 1880,


Mr.. Thomas Mangin was seriously in
jured recently by being thrown from a
wagon drawn by runaway team. He is
now able to attend to business again.
Is it not about time our school boards
enforced tue compulsory school law
Perhaps the officers prefer to pay the fine
themselves.
There is some talk of building new
school house In district No. 4 this sum-
mer. The district is very much in need
of a more comlaodious building the
present one being altogether too small.
Letters received here state that James
Cohen a constable from Maple Grove
who suddenly disappeared from Manito-
voc last fall and was supposed to be
drowned, has turned up in Michigan.
The machine agent is again abroad
seeking whom he may devour." Would
it not be good idea to tax these wand
ering Jews? Peddlers trying to make
living by selling hair pins and tin whis-
ties, are compelled to pay license and why
should not the smooth-tongued agent.
He certainly has ''cheek" enough to stand
it. A few dollars year paid into the
school fund by each would help support
our schools. Thus what is now O nuisance
would become a source of profit unless
Cooperstown should interpose veto.
Our local politicians are beginning to
show some signs of life. The present
officials will not refuse second or even
a third" term. Some of the old bar
nacles will endeavor to hoist themselves
into Office again. 1t is time the people
would sit down on some of them and
hatten them out. All claim they do not
make anything while in Office. They just
make enough to pay expenses. Nothing
more. If one complains of the salaries
paid, he is at once set down as lunatic
or fool or perhaps both.

THE FIFTEEN PUZZLE.

There are perhaps many who have at
tempted to solve this puzzle and having
failed repeatedly have abandoned the
thing in despair. There are but two
combinations soluble by arranging the
blocks horizontally, the numbers run
ming from left to right. Those are when
the last row make Ia, Is. Is, or Is, 13,
IA. There are in all six combinations,
but one is the solution, so that five re-
mains to be solved. The first combine
ton is solved as follows: Have all the
numbers above the last row in natural or
der, the blank space being at the lower
right hand corner Make the following
moves successfully, II IL, 13, 10, IA, 9,
10, 10, Is, IA, Is, 10, 9, 13, IA, Is, IL, II,
and the natural numbers are in success
sion. In the next combination 15, Ii,
IA, have the vacant place in the lower
left hand corner, the movements from
left to right are then just the same as
those from right to left in the first solu-
ton.
When two successive numbers are
transposed the puzzle is not soluble, I'M
less you get the columns vertical, the
column 1, 2, 3, 4, being on the right.
Those combinations are Ii, Is. IA, 10,
IA, 49,, II, Is, Is. Take the first, 13,
Is, Ia, move the outside rows 10 the di-
rection taken by the hands of a clock.
Reverse the 4 inner numbers and you
will have the numbers arranged vertical
ly, as they were horizontally in the first
combination solved. Similar moves will
arrange the numbers. In the other, be-
fore changing the order of the columns,
bring the last rows to the form ID, Is, II,
which is done by the key given in the
first solution, and then proceed conform
ably to the rule for that combination.
The insolubility of this combination,
arranging them horizontally in natural
order, is owing to principle in mathe-
matics affecting symmetrical geometrical
figures. Each combination has sym
metrical, and as in geometry you cannot
change a figure into its symmetrical so
also it is impossible in the case of this
puzzle which has essentially the same
principles underlying it.

JUSTICE C. II. SCHMIDT has commu
nication in this week s issue of the PILOT
relative to some criticisms offered by US
the week previous. Mr.. Schmidt is mis-
taken when he says the attack was
specially directed against him. To show
that there is some necessity for criticising
the pernicious habit of encouraging lit
igation we have only TO state the amount
expended in 1879 by the county in judi
cial expenses. The total amounts to
81, 4073O. Of this sum, 81, 937. so were
expended in paying jurors and witnesses
in the circuit court, and 81, 43767 of the
above comes from expenses incurred in
justices courts. Does it not seem that
the county pays pretty heavily for JUS
tice? 1t would seem that with popuia-
ton of $4,000 peaceably disposed citizens
the administration of justice should not
prove SO costly. We do not know what
the cost to the county will be in the case
under discussion. 1t certainly will not
be less than $500. This amount, or per-
haps more, is expended without Furnishing
the guilty or generating the innocent.
1t is true that lawyers are often to
blame in stringing out testimony almost
to the "crack of DOOM" The longer the
time they are engaged the larger the
fees received from their clients. But the
advantage is reciprocal and the justice
seldom excludes irrelevant testimony.
The lawyer whose clients are few thus
through the dereliction of justice
materially and unnecessarily increases
expenses.

The body of man was found on the
beach north of Two Rivers on Saturday.
The man had evidently been a sailor as
his arm was tatooed. 1t was impossible
to identify the person as the body had no
distinguishing marks, entirely Invested
of clothing with the exception of pair of
boots, and had the face much disfgured.
The hair was washed away from the
head. 1t was at first believed to be the
body of John Dillon, Cohen of Maple
Grove or McGovern lost from the Imper-
ial. But Dillon was not tatooed, Cohen,
according to our Franklin correspondent
is in Michigan and McGovern was lost
on the other shore, besides the latter had
marks wanting in the person found.
