SENATOR BENNETT was summoned be-
fore the Committee which is investigat-
ing the Madison Insane Hostipal last Fri
day, as witness. 1t will be remember
ed that Senator Bennett was one of a
few Senators who fought the resolution
through the Legislature authorizing the
investigation Of the affairs of this institu-
ton the investigation is not through
with as yet, but enough evidence has been
adduced to show that it was high
time that the officers of this hospital were
looked after. A general looseness seems
to have characterized their management
so far as money matters were concerned
The officers were not over particular
whether they used their own or another's
money. Extravaganza and prodigality is
also shown by the testimony to have been
the rule and not the exception. The re-
port of the committee will doubtless
show that doctors do not make good f.
nancial managers.

Celeste.

The concerts by Miss Celeste Connell
at the Congregational Church, Monday
and Tuesday evenings, were admitted by
all who heard them to be the most inter
esting and wonderful of the kind ever
given in this city. AS pianist she is a
marvel and has no equal. Such racing
of the fingers over the keyboard was
never seen. Her pieces ranged from the
most difficult compositions of the famous
authors to the most humorous and natural
limitations. Judges of good music pro-
nounce her crescendos and diminuendos
unequaled by any performance they
ever heard. Her imitation of the man
nerisms ofprofessional pianists, the storm
piece, and playing blindfolded medley
on the piano and organ at the same time
with shawl spread over the keyboard
elected great applause. Those who
failed to go missed rare treat.

Corn Trial by Changers.

In series of seventeen corn crops
raised in Saline county, Mo, by farmers
competing for Il grange premium of
5000 for the largest yield, it appears that
twelve crops out of the seventeen gave
an average yield of over 100 bushels per
acre; and this not for one acre only,
but for an area of ten acres in each ease.
Nothing could more clearly show the
progress of good farming than this fact.
When one man gets Il yield of 100
bushels or over from single acre it is
not very remarkable, because it is get
ting to be of frequent occurrence. But
when a dozen men, each cultivating
field Of ten acres, get a product of over
100 bushels per acre for the whole area
it may well attract attention. If twelve
fields, aggregating 120 acres, are made
to produce Il, 900 bushels, of grain per
annum, together with its 500 tons of
clover, what would the yield of the
country amount to at the same rate of
production, and how much longer shall
we remain satisfied with thirty bushels
per acre as an average yield for the
whole country? If the above competi-
ton is fair sample of granger enter
prise and success, then we say let the
Patrons Of Husbandry go ahead, and
let the farmers clubs show the same
spirit of progress. Then indeed the
new era of husbandry will come in with
the new decade and the croakers and
doubters will pass away to join the bats
and the owls of the buried epoch

Winter Dairying.

A correspondent of the Country Gen
tleman says: In the autumn there is
no forage or food of any kind better for
milk cows as help to failing pastures
than pumpkins. have used them
freely for years with the best results,
and find the fear of the seeds all nom
sense. At the present time | have a
fine lot growing among the corn and
about three acres planted near the barn,
which together will be sufficient to last
till Christmas if l can secure portion
of them from frost. After the pump
kins are gone, carrots are better than
any other variety of roots, and if fed
till grass comes again there need be no
loss of quality in the butter. The
quantity of the milk will be equal to
the best grass season, and will depend
upon the cows. Amy man having COM
mon sense, and managing properly, can
obtain double the average given by
cows of the kind usually met with, if
he will buy of good ones and breed
from none but deep mixers, and from
bulls which are from deep milking
