Cream Raising Revised,

The agricultural editor of the Clarks-
vile Star says on this subject:
We lately visited the farm of o prom
inent farmer in this county where
twenty-six COWS are MIXED and the
cream sold to creamery, and we found
the usual arrangements of milk
house. also an underground outdoor
cellar fitted up with water tanks laid
in cement, but of no use. Instead OF
these old-fashioned eonveniences, we
found long wooden tank for holding
the milk cans. At one end of the tank
was a pump, now driven by a windmill.
At the further end of the tank a waste
pipe ran through to conduct the waste
water to the stock yard. The tank was
fitted with movable cover to keep out
flies, dust and dirt. and was simply
placed in the dense shade of trees,
leaving free circulation of pure air,
the proprietor claiming better results
from this arrangement than by the old
method of keeping the milk We have
also talked with other farmers, who by
accident or experiment have reached
similar conclusions.
We are satisfied that there is yet
much to learn in handling milk for
cream, to attain the best results pos
sible.

Chinese Cruelty.

"Maskee more better I de-" was
the exclamation with which woman
greeted Mr.. Morgan, of the customs
Service, as he dragged her out of dock
at Hankow, China. And she.was right,
for early the next morning she was
drowned by her two brothers-in-law,
whose previous attempt Mr.. Morgan
had frustrated. The second time, in
.order to make sure work of it, they
took her out into the middle of the riv
Ter in boat, pinioned her arms, fast
.ened stone around her neck. attached
"a line to her waist and threw her into
the river. When sufficient time had
:elapsed to make it certain that she was
dead they pulled up the body by the
rope attached to the waist, took it
ashore and buried it with tho usual
rites. The crime of the deceased was
stated to be that she refused to marry
an old man; she, being fine, bloom
ing widow, wanted something better.

greater difficulties and amid less con-
genial surroundings than the Netcs of

the 100 days siege of Pretoria. The

MODEST NEWSPAPER MAN.-For some
days past the readers of the Enterprise have
labored under the impression that judge
Goodwin had again taken charge of the paper.
This arose from the fact that Colonel Shaw
went to San Francisco tor q week, leaving Mr..
Putnam in charge. A happy thought strik
ing Mr.. Putnam, he drew most his editorial
inspiration from the Salt Lake Tribune. The
other day he appropriated column editorial
from the Tribune on Could, taking it verbatim
This is highly commandanle and sensible in
Mr.. Putnam, who. instead of treating the
readers Of the paper to articles from his own
pen, selected them from gentlemen who
was much better qualified to treat upon cur
rent topics. L: is rare thata man can be found
to leave in charge OF a newspaper who is so
modest as MIR. Putnam.

THE UNIONS AND THE APPEAL.

Some Of the newspapers of Nevada have
placed the APPEAL in a false position by
quoting garbIed extracts from an article which
appeared i'm its columns recently on the prOpo-
sitiox to break up the Miners Union. Some
Of these extracts, taken singy, would lead to
the i'm preston that the APPEAL had changed
front and was siding with the millionaire capt.
talists, who, that they might still further en-
rich themselves, would reduce miners wages
to three dollars a day or supplant white with
Mongol labor. Fair and Flood are sciIeming
to bring this about during John Mackay's
absence i'll Europe, as they we'll know that
Mackay was new Ell in favor ofreducng miners
wages. He has frequently expressed his
opinion that underground men earned five
dollars day, instead of four.
The Ruby Hill Mining News says:
The Comstocl miners have orc friend in
Carson, the APPEAL. which is An. anh
fearless journal. With the News ~ i"lned
protest against the election OF Far to tie
United States Senate, while its contemporary
the Timas-as now, was the metallic
side. The Times Of February 3 devOtes Il
column in giving advice to the conStock
Miners Union. The young man asserts that
there are millions OF tons OF low grade ore in
the artesian wells of the Comstocil, and that
if miners will abandon their organization and
work for Massachuse.t Is wages, he managers
OF these wells will be enabled to increase their
own wealth. It viii be remembered that this
same paper endeavoreG to persuade some
Weakened Republican Legislators to make,
by their ballots. slippery Jim's election to
the United States Senate unanimous. Both
articles were written after visits to Virginia,
and have & metallic ring. As this man re
sides some twenty miles from the tomstock,
it is safe to predict q reduction OF wages in
Virginia would have but little effect upon his
stomach. We admire his disntereSted cheek
in advising hard working heads of families to
take action that would deprive their little ones
of what small comforts they now enjoy. A
few years ago, in Virginia City, for similar
conduct, a wretch was driven from town like
a beast, and only saved his life b. rapid loco
notion
The APPEAL believes that if large bodies of
kow-grade ore could be worked at profit by
employing men to work at So day above
ground, it would be advantageous to the
State, provided the low-grade ores existed in
sufficient quantities, and the high grade ores
did not. So long, however, as developments
are retarded, and good ore bodies kept out Of
sight to make times dull as an excuse for
crushing the Union, the project is utterly in
detensble, and should receive the support
of no intelligent, well-meaning he wspaper.

John Shawban, the Virginia stock broker,
has sued the San Francisco Chronicle for
libel, fixing the damages at $4,000. The
Chronicle charged him with insanity. The
fact that be is about to sue paper which has
beaten some three dozen suits, goes a long
way to establish the charge.
