evidences of financial prosperity.

And still California Is not happy over the

others to be most liberal in its provisions; in
fact it gives the United States complete con-

One OF our Industrious, enterprising milii-
uers-Miss NJ. C.-has cTocheted, since the
week of Thanksgiving up to the 18Th INST,
some sixty hoods for ladies' wear, and has
new ones daily coming in.
comparison OF the items referring to the
yield of milk of different dairics, shows that
that of B. T. Hawks, OF Rochester, is ahead
on the average yield per cow by 1,5JI lbs,
result unprecedented ii .eems TO us in the
history of dairy farming. Can any body beat
it?
A violent storm occurred rocently in Eng
land, resulting in great loss of property and
life. The fall of snow was unprecedented,
completely blockading railroads and COM
pel.ing suspension of travel. The sea
coast is covered with wrecks and large num-
bers OF sailors have been lost.
In passing through country towns we find
1t noteworthy fact that sheep raising Is
again one of the permanent features OF hus-
bandry. Nearly every farmer of note has
iock Of sheep, more or less, and We judge
that dairyiug will not exclude mixed bus-
ban3ry as il has for the past five or ten years
We regret TO learn that IL is definitely set
tied that 2. N S,roup will leave Wellington
April LIST. lie will move to Lagrange, Ind,
where he has a lumber yard, planning mill
ssyersl years. He has built a large and Gle
giant frame house which is already finished
and ready for occupation.
E. n. Bacon, of Atlantic, Iowa, writes in
private letter that Atlantic is only eleven
years old and beats old Wellington all to
pieces in inhabitants and business. IL has
1000 population and three newspapers, one
a daily. Mr. Bacon is manager and pro-
piietor of an opera house with seating Ca
paci.y of Coo.
A post norton was held IN the case OF
Samuel Whitehead, Sunday afternoon, con
ducted by DR.. Hathaway, his physician,
most of the resident physicians and num-
Der of friends being present. The examina-
ton revealed a csncerous rumor, probably
having its origin in the omentum, located
between the stomach and liver and attached
5y extensive adhesions to both Of those
organs 1t was a case, of course, not ameu-
able To medical treatment at any tine since
It's origin.
The funeral services of the late Nr. Samuel
Whitehead, who died on Saturday afternoon,
the 22nd inst, were held at his late residence
on Courtland Avenue, ON Tuesday afternoon,
at Two o'clock, Rev. y. S. Albright conduet-
ing tie services, aud preaching short dis
course from the text, "Seeing then that all
these things shalT be dissolved, what manner
of persons ought ye to be in all holy con
versation ami Goodness" Rev. j. b.
Kno wlcs, of the Disciple Church, also MADE
some remarks. The services were largely at
tended by friends aud neighbors.
Nchave received bound volume con-
taiLing copies Of Ayers Almanac for 1851,
pin ed in eleven differ, Mt languages. We
leasn that nearly eleven millions of these
almanacs are distributed annually, and that
fully five hundred tons OF paper are consuEl-
cd in their publication each year, and that
eight steam presses are employed in printing
these and other advertising matter. The
astronomical calculations are made for
nearly every portion Of the globe. From
these statements we may imagine what must
be the sales OF the medicines of this firm
that will justify the expenditure of SO much
printers iEk.
Mr. VIM. II. II. Sutlif's dairy of ~ cows
produced during last season from April l,
1870, to November 60, 1880, 13I, $50 lbs OF
milk, an average of 6.0T9 lbs pr COW. This
is 4 better showing than that OF John Howli
given last week, though the time il given
might change the result somewhat. On in
auiry We learn that John Howk began 10 put
his milk in the factory March 2Gth and closed
Nov. 2ist, makiIg his time one day less than
Mr. Su;lif's, but as the difference in the
average per COW is only 2lbs, the additional
day would more ihan make it up and leave
his dairy stiIl ahead. The difference is very
slight, however, and both have done remark
ably we'll. We doubt whether We shall hear
of any better results.
Again is that Dead Beat to the front with
his brass.maIled cheek ag,ow with fond
hopes of having found new depot of sup
plies without money. 1t seems he cropped
into IL. F. Warehouses; meat marked last
week, going through the formula, finally
asking for a small line OF credit. But Homer
knowing his man, while an aflablc smile lit
UP his features, pointed to a card on the
wall, on which was printed "Terns Cash."
requesting him 10 study it carefully, and
that he would see him later, turning his at
tcntion 20 a cash customer. Homer believes
with many others that Dead Beats who do not
sow, shall not reap JUICY roasts and steaks at
his expense.
