STEwARrsrowS, July 10.-Whcat
harvest is about over. The crop is
far above the average.
Steve Stewart paid Stewartstown
flying visit last week.
Bowen Crow who met with the
sad accident in the saw mill is get
ting along very we'll,
Major John has purchased o reap
er for his farms that will cut from
400 TO 500 dozens per day,
Stewartstown will be represented
in the coming Democratic convention
by Maj. w. w. John and Il. A. Hal
deman.
A. f. Blosser was suddenly taken
violently ill while visiting his parents
last week. He was taken to his
home at Line Ferry and is still very
i'll.
There are over two hundred and
fifty persons from Union district in
Fayettc county engaged in different
vocations. A railroad would keep
the bone and sinew Of the community
at home.
John Clark has built house near
his mill on the East side of Cheat
river and now occupies il. j. /.
Conn occupies the house vacated by
Clark. 7. j. Keyser has moved in
his new house and is completing it.
We are sorry to note the severe
illness of Reuben Robson. He was
thrown from a horse some two weeks
ago and badly hurt and has since
been belfast. Rnbe is jovial fell
low in his own peculial way, and we
hope his recovery will be speedy.
Summer resorters are lining the
banks of our rivers. Several persons
from the city are stopping with Mr..
Dietrich. Even in the hottest wealth
er person can keep cool here, and
blankets to sleep under make you
comfortable at night. No person
could want more desirable place to
spend the heated season.
DIR. Frank John leaves next Mon
day for Chicago, near which city he
intends locating. He has been very
successful in his practice while here
and will g .ye good satisfaction where
ever he locates. Our people are sor-
ry to see him leave but this country
is entirely too slow to suit the taste
of an ambitious and enterprising
young man. 'sAnd still there's more

MARRIAGE OF Mr.. THos III. b. STAG.
GERS TO Miss LAURA j. BURNs,oF FAIR
MoNT-A LARGE AND FASHIONABLE
GATHERING AND A HAPPY AND Bril-
LIANT OccAsIoN.-It was our pleasure
yesterday evening (July 9th, 1882,
with considerably more than one
hundred others, to witness the mar
riage of Mr.. Thomas II. B. Staggers
and Miss Laura Janet Burns, both
of this place. This happy event oc-
Cured at half-past eight o'clock al
the elegant residence on Locust Ave-
nue. of James j. Burns, Esq, father
Of the bride. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. L. L. Stewart, who
was assisted by Prof. Thos. c. Mil
Ter. The attendants were Messrs.
Dan Morrow, Thomas F. Hall, w. S.
Meredith, Howard Fleming, and
Misses Minnie Nichols, Annie Gould,
Addie Brodie and Mabel Burns, the
last named lady being a sister of the
bride. The groom, who is always
precise and tidy in his attire, was
faultlessly arrayed on this occasion,
and the truly beautiful and accom-
plished bride, in her bridal parapher-
MALTA, was the center of all admiring
eyes. The attendants, of course,
looked superb.
The residence of Mr.. Burnsis sur
rounded with varied shrubberry and
rare and rich native and exotic floral
specimens, and It's interior on this
marriage night was made very
roscate elysium. After the ceremony,
and after CALCULATIONS and congratu-
lations and general interchange of
expressions and sentiments came
Refreshments in bounty and variety
too abundant for particularizing here.
At a late hour the brilliant and JOY
GUS company dispersed. and the hap
py bride and groom, with a number
of their friends, repaired to the neat
and comfortable residence of Mr..
Staggers, on High street, which had
been previously prepared and elabor-
ately furnished for their reception
on this evening. Let as say to them,
welcome home.
Mr.. Staggers is a young mana
lawyer by profession who has been
with us only about three years, but
his energy and talents have brought
to him very lucrative and enviable
practice. Now that he has taken
unto himself partner, we predict
that his business will multiply and
the firm never grow less.
We must not neglect to state that
the newly welded ones. were the
recipients Of numerous beautiful and
useful presents.
Tom, in our closing words, we
wish you and yours many, very many,
"sweet silent hours of marriage joys"

l.
The moraing Of the Fourth opened
with gloomy prospects for the antici-
pated pleasures of the day. From
early dawn until about 8 o'clock the
rain csme down in torrents and many
were the expressions of disappoint-
ment made by those who had com
pleted arrangements for spending
the day out of town. AS soon as
the clouds begun breaking away, dis
playing patches of blue sky here and
there, the Waverlies and invited
guests, undaunted by the Indictment
forebodings, and being determined
to carry Out the programme as pre-
viously arranged, were soon on their
way to "Camp Eden" the famous
resort for all lovers OF mountain seen
cry, which is here displayed in all
its primeval grandeur.
After drive of about two hours
we arrived at Mr.. Ley's and taking
a short rest, proceeded to unpack the
numerous weil-filled baskets of the
Injuries which had been so sumptu.
ously prepared by the ladies of ON
party. Soon the large table which
had been procured for our accomoda-
tien, was filled to its utmost capacity
with all the delicacies usually pre-
valent on such an occasion. If the
repast did justice to the table, Ger.
tainly we did more than justice to
the repast, for there was marked
idiminution in the amount of eatables
when the party arose from the table
and the fragments remaining amount
ed to much less than s'twelye baskets
full" After all had fully appeased
their appetites, which were greatly
sharpened by the drive in the fresh
morning air, we started to the poin,
of our destination, although our path
was very rough; being compelled to
Chamber over rocks and logs. Every
one seemed to enjoy it, and soon we
were, on the famous camping ground
Remaining here a short time, We
started on our return home, where
all arrived in safety.
Thus ended one Of the most en-
joyable days ever spent on Cheat
river. These composing the party
were:
Mr.. Chas. f. Hopkins and Miss
Hattie Samsell, Geo. C. Steele and
Mona Hayes, Jno. G. Samsell and
Annie johnson, Clark McVicker and

Winter Care of Livestock.

There are u few general rules for the care of
live stock in winter, which are of universal ap-
plication:
First.-They shonld lie dry, whether bcdded
or not. A dry floor is far better than wet bed
ding. Spar or Stat floors, through which urine
will quickly pass, and which give the animals a
level standing place, are especially to he ad-
vised. A good degree of comfort may be had on
such floors, but a good supply Of dry litter
straw, leaves, swamp hay. etc.-certainly makes
all kinds of stock more comfortable.
.SecoRd-Shelter saves fodder, wherever lun-
Der can reasonably be obtained, to a degree
which few practical men are aware of. The war
mer the stables are, the better, except perhaps
for sheep. But with close, warm stables, it is
essential thar the manure heap will be where it
will not eontamnate the air, and that there
should be perfect ventilation, so arranged as not
TO cause drafts of air.
Third.-As to feed. This should be given with
the utmost regularity and acknowledgements
more than will be eaten up long before the next
feeding time Then the animals have an appe-
tite for their food, 80 that coarse fodder may be
first given, to be followed with better, and by
grain in some form, if this be part of the daily
ration. This is no doubt the most economical
SYSTEM of al. kinds of fodder used in the orIina-
ry way.
EOHrih.-Grooming and the care of the ami
mails 4 most valuable means of keeping them
in health well as of saving food. The skin of
the animal existing in a state of nature is wash
eel 10y every shower. brushed aud cartled by ey-
cry bush, licked by its mates rubbed by the
ground in rolling, and in various ways kept free
from accommodations of its own calculations, from
own inherent dirt A healthy skin means
warmth, health, life, vigor, other things being
about right, and we can secure this only by
grooming.-.im. AgriesltHrisi.

.for the farmer.
shu. Out the Cold.

The temperature Of the living animal body
cannot vary greatly, and therefore when the
weather grows colder there is an increased de-
mand for food TO be consumed in keeping up the
natural heat. A low temperature is an expen-
siye condition, as every farmer who has win
tered bis stock well knows. There are two gen.
eral methods of overcoming the wearing or ex-
haasting effects of severe cold weather; giving
the animals an abundance Of rich and palaf able,
heat-forming food, and securing them from ex-
posure in warm and comfortable stables A hap
py combination Of these two methods is the
Ia be provided by every stock raiser who looks
both TO comfort Of his animals aud their profifs-
bieuess
IL stables generally could be warmed with
safety by stoves, there is no donbt that saw
ing in the amount of fodder would result. Much
can be done in this direction by keeping the an
imals in well-built stables, and free from all
chilling currents of frost-laden air. The writer
has in mind stable, where a long row of milk
cows suffered, almost TO the point of freezing,
on many winter nights, because the stable was
full Of large cracks, and the doors only partly
shut out the drifting SHOWS. A few hours of
patching the walls, flooring, and doors, with
very little expense for lumber, would have made
its good effects evident within a single week at
the dairy-room. COW is not at her best when
she must sIver with the cold and have her
rough coat covered with frost and snow of Sc
we're winter night. Looked at in simply the pc
cuniary light, this method of keeping farm stock
does not bring the best returns. There is no
farmer who, being able TO own herd of cattle
fock of sheep, can afford not TO house them
well. He may let them eat at Will from the
stack of the best hay that is made, but if they
have 10 more shelter than the stack affords, he
may come TO the conclusion common TO all bad
agricultural practice, that farming does not pay.
Let this be a word in season for all those who
may profit by it. Stop the cracks in the stables,
and save pain for your animals and money for
yourself Take special care not TO have the
farm stock rxposed TO the chilling winter blasts:
in short, shut ont the eold.-AmeTioaH AsricHl-
ftrisf.
