A farmer in Indiana gives the

pounds of dry uncleaned ashes to the
acre. and sowed wheat on that, and
the result was only six bushels to
the acre. Adjoining this tract |

bone dust. and the three acres pros

being an increased yield of fourteen

ashes. and the result was forty bush.

ashes alone or bone dust alone would

bone dust yielded twenty bushels,
but when the two were combined l
harvested forty bushels. This shows

CURE OF BRIGHTs DISEASE BY

pendent sends the following:
"a complete and radical cure of
Bright's disease of the kidneys has
come to our notice. 1t is a most 10
teresting case, the cure having been
effected by system OF skim milk
dieting, which was recommended by
a Philadelphia editor, friend Of
Mr.. Farmer. The person cured is
Mr., L. P. Farmer, now living with
his father in the old homestead 10
Ellington. Mr.. Far er, before his
sickness, was a general ticket agent
on one of the great railroads in
Pennsylvania, and skiIIful physi-
clans pronounced his disease as in
durable, But he is now apparently
convaIescent and rapidly regainiug
his former vigor. 1t appears that
the dieting commences by eating or
drinking nothing but tablespoons
full of the skim milk every the first
day, the quantity of milk to be
doubled up to a certain point daily,
when more solid food can be retains
ed and taken care Of by the liver
and kidneys. We congratulate Mr..
Farmer upon his recovery, and hope
that others in like circumstances
will take advantage of bis experi>
ence and be restored to health. -

The process of subdividing the
large plantations into small farms is
going on steadily in the South, even
in the States where the old system
had taken the deepest hold. The
hard working far ner, who follows
the pillow himself, is gradually crowd
ing out the luxurious planter who IN
the anti>bellum days scarcely took
the trouble to direct the operations
of his laborers. In Mississippi, for
instance, there were 42,S40 planta-
tions in 1860, and the average num-
Der of acres in each wa, $40. Ten
years later there were 1923 farms,
the average area Of each being 1873
acres. In 1880 the number of farms
was 75,205, averaging l85 acres
each. While the area of cultivated
land is less than it was in 1860, yet
the production of cotton is nearly
twice as great. The census of 1890
will doubtless show still greater
change in the domestic economy of
the South, as indicated by a larger
number of landowners and vast in
crease 10 agricultural products.

At the instance of L. j. Southland and 9th.

Frye, an appropriation has been made for the
improvement of the channel of the Kennebec
river running west of Swan Island, opposite
Richmond. Sand bars have been formed at
the head and near the foot of the island and at
Hatch's Rocks. which have greatly impeded
navigation, loaded kvessels having to Jay from
b to 4o hours stranded in these places. The
channel DIT these places is to be dredSed out
and wing dams built, that by concentrating
the force larger volume of water on these
bars Will keep the channel secured out to suf-
hcent depth to accommodate all ordinary yes
sels Operations will probably be begun inn
mediately as the limit for completing the work
is about the middle Of September.

The Rain Fall.

Last spring, or the spring of 1880, the rain
fall was about five inches short. Enough rain
fell during the summer to carry vegetation
through, but not enough to ill up the springs,
For three years, in fact, our spring rains, we
are told, have been deficient We have been
getting an old fashioned spring rain the past
week. While, as we said yesterday, the AXE
Sebago has risen fifteen inches at Longley s
Mill, at the gate house of the Water Company
it showed a rise of about four inches only on
Wednesday morning. The different streams
that feed the Presumpscot aud Saco river can
hardly be said to give fair estimate of the
average rainfall. hon. Tobias Lord, Jr, who
was in town yesterday morning from Standish,
does not think there will be much damage uu-
less A. X p Lords mill should give way at
Moderation. In that case the river would
sweep everything possibly as far as Saco.

ATTEMPTED KIDNAPPING.
A Bold Deed on Public Street.

Last evening about o'clock, little boy
named James Dolan, aged eleven, and his
sister Mary Ellen Dolan, aged nine, wore
standing on Congress street, near the corner of
Myrtle, with a basket of clothes mebody's
wash-when a well appearing man. neatly
dressed in dark clothes, according to the boys
story, came along and addressed the children
as if he had known them for long time. The
children, thinking he was some gentleman
who had his washing done by their mother
answered his question, aud finally he asked
the little girl to come with him and he would
get her pair of new shoes. The brother said
where he was until they returned as he should
not take his sister far, and he should buy them
some candy.
The man and little girl started, but some
thing seemed to tell the boy all was rot right
and he followed in pursuit. He could no
catch up however, although he chased them
down Congress to Newbury, and across India
street, when they escaped his sight He in
quired at house doors without success, search
ing for an hour, and finding y polio officer APP
pealed to him. The officer took him to tho
SIdtlUU VHtTS Ut tOiQ his SbOTy TO deputy
Crowell who put the police on the search and
went himself
AS the officers were proceeding up Fore
street, having turned into it from Hancock,
they met the little girl running towards them
She was almost exhaust and was crying
loudly, but had her basket of clothes firmly
grasped in her had She said the man in
duGed her to go down Newbury to Hancock,
then up Fore, to the Promenade. She began
to be frightened before reaching there, and
commenced crying. The man told her to stop,
and, finding she would not, told her he would
be back in moment, and left her hurriedly.
The child at this, thoroughly frightened, ran
for home.
What the mans object could have been it
is impossible to tell unless he contemplated q
criminal assault But this seems hardly prob
able under the circumstances. 1t seems rather
as if the man intended kidnapping the child
and would have succeeded if he had not been
afraid her crying would attract peoples atten-
ton.

MRS. WILDER RETURNS.
She Took a Train for Boston.

Yesterday Mr.. Osborne, who has heen hunt
ing continuously for Mrs. Wilder since her de-
parture last Saturday morning, received a
postal card, written in very elegant hand
and mailed at Portland, which read as follows:
Wishing to relieve you from any further
anxiety will simply state that Mrs. Wilder is
safe and will at present remain whore she is.
This postal bore no signature and naturally
caused great deal Of anxiety. Late in the
afternoon he received a telegram from Mr.
Wilder, at Boston, saying that Mrs. Wilder
was all right aud would return on the evening
train. She did return by the train arriving in
Portland at p. m, safe and sound but
evidently much agitated and confused by the
Journey. 1t appears that she took the Pull
1man train-which leaves Portland at 3 a. H.
Saturday and went direct to Boston.

the exercises of the two days will be complete
ly successful if fair weather is in order. The
boat crews are pulling daily on the river, and
the race promises to be one of the most excit-
ing held for years. The members OF the ath
letic association are in training and a strong
endeavor will be made to bring the records
