THE DRIVE WELL.

The Grange Visitor of Oct. Is con-
tains a reprint from another paper of
a letter from Messrs. Lake & Harmon,
prominent attorneys of Independence,
Iowa, who have delved into the histO-
ry of this drive well. and they boldly
state that if the people will combine
they can beat this patent as they did
the slide-gate. They assert that they
are able to prove the existence and
use of these driven wells long before
they w.re patented by Green, and
they were abandoned by him to the
public. This is the ground taken by
our granger friends in Michigan, and
in pursuance thereof they propose to
tight. and invite all outside tho order
who are interested to unite with them.
AT its last meeting Capital grange
pledged $50, if called upon, to aid in
defending these cases, and more will
be given If necessary, as we are in-
formed by the master. Prof. w. j.
Beal If the Agricultural college. He
also authorizes the statement that the
grange will be glad to receive little
help from any outside of the order who
may feel disposed to assist. Small
amounts-say half dollar or dollar
may be sent to P,Of. Beal, and will
be thankfully received but no one will
personally solicit cOntributiOns.-Lan-

up, fearing he might be ill, and there

Yes, he lives on, this old man, COM
panionless and alone; the neighbors do
what they can for him, and he rarely
wants loaf of bread or a cup of tea
now. Every evening, as the clock
strikes five, he gets up from his rickety
chair, opens his door and stands listen
ing for the patter and scramble of old
Jacks feet upon the carpetless stairsl

the footsteps that will never return.

How to Fatten Turkeys.

Nothing pays better to be sent to
market in prime condition than the
turkey crop. Many farmers do not
understand this. Their turkeys grow
On limited range, get little or no food
at home through the summer, and if
fed at all with regularity, it is only for
TWO or three weeks before killing. I
see these lean, bony carcasses in the
local markets every winter. and feel
sorry for the owners loss. They have
received small price for their birds,
and still poorer price for the food
fed out. The average life of a turkey
is only seven months, and the true
economy of feeding is to give the
chicks all they can digest from the
shell to the slaughter. If they can get
all they can eat on the range, that is
well. Usually this should be supple
mented by regular ratiOns when they
come from the rOOst in the morning,
and two or three hours before they 90
to rOOst at night. The food may be
slack in the morning. so that they
will go to the range with good appe-
tites, and fuller at night. They should
be put upon regular coarse of fat
tening food as early as the first of Oc-
tober, when you purpose to kill the
best birds at Thanksgiving. The youn-
ger and lighter birds should be rtserv-
ed for Christmas and New Years mar
kets. They continue growing quite
rapidly until mid-w inter, and you will
be well paid for the longer feeding.
There is nothing better for fattening
than old corn, fed partly in the kernel
and partly in cooked meal, mashed up
with potatoes. Feed three times
day, giving the warm meal in t
morning,and feeding in troughs with
plenty OF room, SO that all the flock
may have chance. Northern corn
has more oil in it than southern, and
is worth more for turkey food. Use
milk for fatteniAg, if you keep dairy
farm. Feed only so much as they will
eat up clean. Cultivate the acquain-
tance of your turkeys as you feed
them. No more charming sight greets
your vision in the whole circle of the
year than a flock of bronze turkeys
coming at the call from their rOosts
on frosty November morning. New
corn is apt to make the bowels loose,
and this should be guarded against.
There is generally green food enough
in the fields to meet their wants in the
fall, and cabbage and turnips need not
be added until winter sets in. If the
bowels get loose give them scalded
milk. which will generally correct the
evil. Well fattened and well dressed
turkeys will generally bring two or
three cents a pound more than
the lean birds. 1t will not only be
betterfor the purse, but for your man
hood, to send nOhing but flashed pro-
ducts to the market.

The Outlook of Pork.

The outlook for pork is not as prom
ising as some weeks ago. and there is a
disposition among holders of pork to
get rid of stocks at present prices.
This weakness is the result of the reck-
less speculation that has been general
among dealers for the past three
months, whereby prices were advanced
to such an extreme point as to cut off
all demands for export and materially
reduce the home consumptive demand.
Thus, while the number of hogs pack
ed from March is 550,964 less than
during the same time in 1880, the for
eign export has declined 280,000,000
lbs, equal to a million and a half of
hogs. While, therefore, we have real.
ly packed half million less hogs since
March last, there is really the product
of over million more hogs in the
country than at this date last season.
This is certainly rather discouraging,
and if there were no other causes at
work to strengthen the market, sea-
son of low prices might be looked for.
But the situation in the country does
not give promise Of an average crop f
hogs nor look favorably for the good
condition of those that are being fed.
This is the result of the high price of
corn and the poor crop raised this pres
ent season. At present prices many
farmers are selling their corn and will
feed few hogs. There will therefore
be considerable decrease in the num-
Der of hogs packed as well as in the
weights.
Whether the deficiency in numbers
and weight will be enough to offset the
decline in the foreign demand is a ques-
ton that cannot be answered positively
by any one; but if exports do not in
crease we may be certain that lower
prices will rule. From the prospects
we should think that the hogs first
marketed will make the most money
for their owners, as they have cost ]it
tie for feed so far, and where farmer
has any tit to send forward, he risks
very little in taking present prices
There may be reaction in the trade
later in the season, but it will be prob
ably pretty late, especially if hogs com,
in rapidly in December. These whit
sold early did best this season.
In the Detroit market pork has de
clined during the week, and mess il
now quoted dt $l7.85 per bbl., agains
$lS rs one week ago. Smoked meat
are also lower, as we'll AS lard. In Chi
cago mess pork has declined to $l5.5'

Improved stock has proved the prob

Improved stock has proved the prob
lem of how to make the farm pay.
r. iss such crops as can best be fed to
st ok, and to this market our farm
crop brings the best profits with the
least labor. Prominent among such
crops is grass. Let us have more grass
pasturage; take better care of it; don't
pasture 1T to death; give the grass
chance and it will pay better than any
other crop for the stock farmer. Next
comes the timothy and clover hay
crops, aud if pasturage is short, plat
of rye sown in the fall aft ids a fine
green food for winter. A plat of sJw
I'd corn yields "A rich crop to help out
the short pasture Of July and August.
A good crop OF oats is specially desira-
ble for horses and sheep. Our stand
ard corn crop Is, next to grass. the most
important for the stock farmer. Ex-
perience proves the benefit of grinding
corn to get the Lest results. SCANNING
and cooking Is advantageous, but
ground corn and oats is a more popular
feed.
1t is poor economy to postpone the
req u ar heavy feeding of hogs intend
ed for the slaughter until cold weather,
They fatten more easily during
the mild weather of October than in
the usual cold of December and Janu-
ary. The first cold spell after the mid
de of November should find them fat
enough to kill and they should all be
in the smokehOuses before Christmas
| 1t Is likewise poor ecOnO-ny to stint
food and stop short of a good fat con.
dition because corn is scarce while
pork is also correspondingly high. 1t
is perhaps better policy to kill all that
can be brought into fair condition
rather than carry them through the
winter and spring and risk possible
disease for another twelve month. In
many sections of the country there is 9
scarcity of provisions, and this scarcity
will be more keenly felt next spring
than now. 1t is therefore wise to re
duce the number of animals which re
quire to be fed and thus, relatively
increase the food supply.

AbOut General Malone.

10 the EultOr OF 'lliE REPUBLICAN,;
The fitness of the appointment of Gen
eral Malone TO n Cabinet position is by no means
exclusively Oh his political record and repre-
sentative characteras as a Southern liberal. He is
a most capable business man us well. 1t is not
generally known to the Northern public that he
managed with signal ability an extensive system
of Southern railroads for several years after the
war. He introduced great economies and i'm
provoments in the details of railroad management
He gave to the people the advantages of the fust
freight lines now fraudulently withheld from the
road owners on all the great Northern lines He
ran his own express and divided the costs with
the people. His success fully prevented the mo-
nopolists from gobbling the whole system of roads
in the Eastern South. The disasters which came
upon his roads were due TO the general policy OF
contraction, which ruined all legitimate enter
prise throughout the country. We are all tired of
seeing our vast public business $50 intimately con-
nected with private interests of incalcuable
value) supervised by mere figure heads. What II
spectacle for finy millions of the most capable
people under the sun do we present to the world
in our Administration
ONE WOULD THINK THE CABINET POSITIONS,
like the foreign missions, mere snecures for re-
spectacle senility, pAsse politicians, literary and

played out in the management Of railroads aller
sinking the stockholders. The presence of young,
vigorous, positive men is sorely needed In the ad-
minislration Of our complicated and ever enlarg-
ing public business. Such sham bank inspections
as the late New jersey failure, and such auditing
as the Howgate case unveil Are but outcroppings
of whole submerged continent, which deepsea
sOundings will readily discover. The whole
American people call for men who are not above
the work to take care Of their corporate Interests.
The legacy of the "hybrld" administration which
we have endured during the four years renders
the case still more imperative. The Departments
abound with those who, like their masters tell
not neither do they fear discipline but boast that
while certain BOurbons" are in Congress they
are sure to stay. OF all Southern men Mahoue is
one of the braniest and ablest for ministerial duties
