Although distant only few hours
ride, Provo possesses features not fully
recognized by the people OF Salt Lake,
or indeed the territory at large. TIC
person who has been absent year
or two this once quietGplsce presents
a lively appearance. and makes one
think that extraordinary agencies
have been employed. Indeed it is
questionable Whether the most san.
guinely hopeful citizens had antici-
pated such an early and marked
change. Aside from the railroad
there has probably been nothing
more conducive to this progress than
the mills erected and operated By the
Provo Mig. Co. Real excellencey of
goods, and efficiency oimanufacture
have done more towards insuring
success than even the inclination OF
the people to encourage home in
dustry, and the hundred and more
employees VINO draw their weekly
salaries and ths general public who
use advantageously the goods, owe
at least some admiration to those
whose capital and labor have been in
vested in 80 commendsble an enter

houses person can proftsbly spend

accomplished within these walls, is
but meagerly realized by those who
have not visited the premises. Each
year since its organization it has

Aided by an efficient corps of

To-day the roll shows on attendance

Successful Poultry Raising.

In raising poultry or stock, 1T
should be the aim OF every one to
keep it healthy and improve it. You
can do it very easily, by adopting
some sytemstc rules. These may be
summed up in brief as follows:
l. Construct your house coed and
warm, SO as to AVOID damp floors, and
afford food Of sunlight. Sunshine
is better than medicine.
2. Provide a dusting and scratch
ing place where you can bury wheat
and corn ard thus induce the fowls to
take needf0l exercise.
8. Provide yourself with some
good healthy chickens, none to be
over three or four years old, giving
one cock to every twelve hens.
4. Give plenty Of fresh sir at all
times OF the year, especially in sum-
mer.
3. Give plenty OF iresh water daily,
and never allow the fowls to 60
thirsty.
6. Feed them systematically, tRo
or three times a day. and scatter the
food SC they can't est too fast or With.
out proper exercise. Do not feed
more than they will eat up clean, or
they will get tired Of that kind of
feed.
z. Give them variety of dry and
cooked tood; 8 mixture of cooked
meal and vegetable is sn excellent
thing for their meal.
8 Give soft feed in the morning
and the whole grain at night, except
little wheat or cracked corn placed
in the scratching place to give them
exercise during the day.
9. Above ali things keep the hen
house ciean and we'll ventilated.
10. Do not crowd too many in che
house. II you do, look out for dis
ease.
Il. Use carbolio powder in the
busting bins occasionally to destroy
lice.
II. Wash your roosts aud bottom
of laying meats with whiteWssh once
week in summer, and once month
in winter.
IS. Let the old and young have as
large range as poasible-the larger
the better.
ii. Don't breed too many kinds of,
fowls at the same time, unless you are
going into the business. Three or
four will give your hands full.
10. Introduce new blood into your
stock euaru uaar ny sn nv knvipo
a coekrel or sittipgs OF eggs from some
reliable breeder.
16. In buying birds or eggs, go to
some reliable breeder who mas his
at stake. You may have
to pay little more for birds, but you
can depend upon what you get.
Calls are not cheap st any price.
II. Save the best birds of next
years breeding and send the others
to maket. In shipping fancy poultry
to market send it dressed.

Fertilization Of q Human BODY.

Your correspondent learning that
there was an item of general interest at
Quincy, took the train for that place to-
day to investigate. Quincy is little
village on the line of Logan and Shelby
Counties. Seeking out DR.. w. V.
Spence and William Kellison, to whom
my informant had directed me, l
learned that the reports were true, and
that there was a curiosity right
there, at least for this part of the
world. Mr.. Kellison's mother visited
him several years ago, coming from
illinois,. Her son, as in duty bound,
gave bountiful dinner in honor of the
event. He says that his mother ate
very heartily, so much in fact that the
next day she was taken suddenly ill,
and after a few hours illness died. Mr..
Kellison, who is an intelligent farmer,
had his mother buried in IS limestone
gravelly'' knoll on the farm. Five years
afterward, on selling the farm, he was
compelled to remove her remains, when
it was discovered that the body had
turned to solid stone and it took a
dozen men with ropes and pulleys to
drag the remains from the grave. The
O1u lsauy was oeVeuty years VI aye, Ill
good flesh and weighed about 100
pounds when she died. When exhumed
the petrification was perfect, and the
only part of the body lacking is a small
portion of the left ala of the nose.
Some idea of her weight may be con-
ceived when it is stated, and is fact,
that it took two horses and wagon to
remove her. The weight of the body is
now estimated by good judges to be at
least 1000 pounds. The remains have
been laid away in Prospect Graveyard,
Quincy, Ohio, where they now are, but
Mr.. Kellison yesterday promised them
to your correspondent and scientific
gentleman present, who intend to pre-.
sent them to one of the Medical Mu-
seums Of the State.-Sidney (O.) Cor.

TruMeS.

The truf1e, it is hardly necessary to
say, is a cryptogramic plant, subter-
ranean in its habits and found at all
depths beneath the soil from two
inches to two feet. I: has neither root,
stem nor leaf, and varies in color from
light brown to black, is more or less
gfobular in form, and in size ranges
from that of a filbert to that of a large
ducks egg, the weight being anywhere
from two ounces to four pounds or
more. The surface is pretty knotty or
warty and covered with skin which
forms a sort Of network of serpentine
veins; the interior is variously marbled.
The hymenium, or reproductive portion,
is found in the traversing veins; but lit
tie is known of the early development
and the vegatative portion. When ma
ture, the truf1le is found quite free from
attachment to any other body. AS to
its origin, innumerable theories have
been propounded. Pliny considered
the truft1e as an excrescence of the earth.
Plutarch attributed it's formation to the
combined action of thunder, heat and
damp, producing Jumps in the earth
similar to tuberous swellings in the
human frame. It is also held that it is
the result of a wound inflicted on the
roots of the oak by fly or some other
insect DESTROYS of depositing it's eggs,
and that such swelling is produced
after the manner of the gall nut
An accomplished writer in the Lon
don Standard last year declined to re-
celve this theory as satisfactory one,
for" he said, "truf1les grow in past
ures and on open downs far away from
any trees, as well as under their shade.
Tney prefer loose soils and affect the
neighborhood of trees, especially oak,
beech and chestnut, thong they do not
grow in any large numbers in thick
woods" They are found in most parts
OF the temperate zones, but according
to Appleton their existence in this coun-
try is very doubtful, the occasional an
nouncement of their discovery being
due to the finding of the Indian bread
or tuckahoe.
They are fairly common in all parts
OF Central and Southern Europe and in
the north of Africa. Algeria and Pied
mont produce considerable quantities.
In Germany the common truflle is found,
as also the white truff1e, species of
nearly allied genus, which grows half
above ground and is about as large as a
walnut, of a whitish red color and de-
decidedly less aromatic than the ordi-
nary variety. According to the Prayer
Agricultural Gazette the export of truf-
fes from France, after steady increase
since the year 1872. amounted to the
value of 7,133,O00 francs in the year
1875, and rose to the enormous sum of
1885,, 900 francs in 1877. The same
years export to Great Britain amount
ed to $4,000 kilogrammes; to Belgium,
1886; to Germany, $4,000, and to
other countries, 1851, while the total
production of France was estimated at
the value of 20,000,0O0 francs. At Apt
alone from fifteen to sixteen tons are

Strange Freaks Of a Crazy Woman.

Friday afternoon Mrs. Sarah Demar-
est, the wife of a well-tO-dO farmer,
about three miles from Ellenville, while
laboring under fit of insanity, set fire
to her husbands house and barns, and
then, in an effort to escape restraint,
shot herself in the head. Mrs. Demar-
est had been troubled in her mind for
some time, but before Friday her all
ment had not assumed dangerous
turn and it was not considered neces-
sary to place her under restraint. While
the members of the family were away
Mrs. Demarest procured two or. three
feather beds, piled them under the
piano in the parlor and then saturated
them with kerosene oil. Before setting
fire to the pile she went to the barns, a
short distance from the house and
poured quantity of kerosene on the
hay. She then ignited both the barns
and the house and was dancing around
the burning buildings when her husband
arrived. He succeeded in extinguish.
ing the fire in the house after the furni-
ture in the pcsrlor was almost destroyed.
The barns, which were large and filled
with the crops of this season, together
N1CIl VI
plements, were burned to the ground,
causing loss to Mr.. Demarest OF near
ly $4,000. After starting the fires Mrs.
Demarest armed herself with a loaded
revolver, and going out into an open
field, threatened to shoot any person
who came near or attempted to inter,
fere with her. Her husband and the
neighbors made several attempts to ap.
proach her, but she kept them off by
pointing the cooked revolver. Finally
one of them succeeded after a long par.
ley in getting within reach of her, when
he made a sudden spring to obtain pos.
session of the revolver. He was not
quick enough, for the woman raised
the weapon to her head and pulled the
trigger, the ball striking her in the fore
head and passing upward plowed
through the skin and passed out at the
top Of her head. The wound was :
flesh one and is not dangerous. Mrs
Demarest was then sent to the asylum

A Wedding Postponed.

William Parker appeared to be a
young man of twenty-five with an open
countenance and a mind firmly 6 sot, :"
but on the latter point the audience were
soon undeceived. One of the spectators
in court was father with bad squirt
to his left eye. Another was q mother
with fingers hooked just right to Sc
cure firm hold on broomstick. A
third was young woman with sharp
chin, red curls and great sorrow.
Little by little the truth was unraveled.
That there William Parker was engaged
to marry that there girl with sharp
chin. Indeed, the day had been set
and it was yesterday. Her parents
had gone to an expense of fifty dollars
for bridal feast, and the minister came
and waited and talked and waited, but
the groom came not.
Six hours before he was to be wed
William read a magazine article to the
effect that woman with sharp chin
could make a husband so miserable in
four weeks that he would welcome
death as a relief. The article further
said that a father-in-law with squirt
to his eye was bad old man to loaf on,
and he put this and that together and
made up his mind to escape the moose
ready to slip over his head. While the
bride waited William was growing
drunk at the rate of ten feet an hour,
and when the clergyman walked home
he. almost passed the alley in which the
recreant groom lay sleeping.
Were you ever here before?' asked
His Honor.
sNo, sir.''
Do you think you can keep sober
after this?''
The prisoner looked over his shoulder
at the three accusing witnesses and then
whispered:

months!''

think III let you CO." continued the
Court.

But don't come here GAIN" an
swered the Judge, as he closed the
docket and reached for his hat.
William was boxed. He went out of
there surrounded on all sides, and when
the trio got him out of the neighborhood
they either changed his mind on sharp
chins or killed him. Detroit Free Press.

NORTH WIND IN AUTUMN.

WOKE at midnight, when the moon was low
And every star shone strangely still and
clear;
And my heart sank within me, love, to hear,
Over the breathless earth, that solemn, slow,
Mysterious, warm wind begin to blow.
Over vast plains it wanders, lifeless, sere,
Where no green thing remains; and to my
It is tho wind of death Some night know
That wind will be voice of utter woe,
When lie staring out upon the drear,
Dead waste of life, where You are not. But oh,
You shall not 60 alone, and leave me here!
Lay your dear hand in mine, my love. and so
Let us go forth together when we go.

From the Talmud.

"Who is strong? He who subdues
his passion. Who is rich? He who is
satisfied with his lot.' s'He who SAG
rifces whole offering shall be reward
ed for a whole offering; he who Offers
a burnt offering shall have the reward
of a burnt offering; but he who offers
humility to God and man shall be re-
warded as if he had offered all the sac
rifces in the word.' 3'There are four
characters in scholars: Quick to hear
and quick to forget, his gain is Cancelled
by his loss; slow to hear and slow to
forget, his loss is cancelled by his gain;
quick to hear and slow to forget is
wise; slow to hear and quick to forget,
this is an evil lot.'' "There are four
characters in those who sit under the
wise: a sponge, a funnel, strainer. and
a bolt-sieve. A sponge, which sucks up
all; funnel, which lets in here and
lets out there; a strainer, which lets
out the wine and keeps back the
dregs; a bolt-sieve. which lets out the
pollard and keeps back the flour"
He who has more learning than good
works is like a tree with many branches
but few roots, which the first wind
throws on its face; while he whose
works are greater than his knowledge
is like a tree with many roots and fewer
branches, but which all the winds of
heaven cannot uproot." eff thy wife
is small, bend down to her and whisper
in her ear. He who forsakes the love
of his youth, Gods altar weeps for him.
He who sees his wife die before him,

struction of the sanctuary Itself
around him the world grows dark
6 He who marries for money, his chill
dren shall be a curse to him." 'sRabbi

but 'home,' for she indeed, makes my
home.'' Underneath the wings Of
the seraphim are stretched the arms of
the divine mercy, ever ready to receive
sinners. "-University Magazine.
