ABUSING NEWSPAPERS.

Some people think that they are very
smart when they abuse newspaper or an
editor. They forget that many papers have
largely profited by becoming the objects of
these attacks. and that some editors have
thriven on being assaulted Aside from
this consideration it should be remembered
that an editor is often obliged to occupy q
a very delicate position His sense of
right viii sometimes cause him to attack
or defend man, business, class or q
cause at . risk of making enemies ofothers,
only to find those in whose interests be had

4 movement is on fool to renominate

A movement is on foot to renominate
the Hon. Schuyler Colfax for Congress in
his old district. Nothing but the reluctance
of Mr.. Colfax to re-enter public life will
prevent it. He is making large income,
and enjoying himself by travelling about
the country delivering lectures, and says
that his political ambition is satisfied. He
therefore declines to have his name used;
but the Republicans of the district are in.

SOrgun Culture.

The department of agriculture has re-
ceived the report of the special committee
of the National Academy of Sciences on
sorgum culture. Their report is thus sum-
med up at the end: First. sorgum cane
can be worked up as soon as cut; second,
suckers should not be allowed in the crop !;
third. the exclusion of all miniature
cane is of the greatest importance in the
manufacture of sugar; fourth, sugar has
been made from sorgum and corn-stalks; ;
fifth, ripe seed will indicate the proper
time for working up the crop; sixth. rain
and drouth do not affect the quality of the
juice seventh, mature sorgum is not in
jured by frost; eighth, loss of sucrose in
sorgum syrup is no greater than syrup
from sugar cane ninth, that the presence
of gum in the syrup of cane and maize is
no great obstacle in the way of sugar
manufacture tenth. the whole subject Of
sugar culture and manufacture should be
still further investigated. incidentally.
the committee state that sorgum has been
known to yield Is per cent of sugar in or
dinary process of manufacture. They also
estimate the maize acreage of the United
States at 62, 900, 900. and remark that the
latent sugar in one crop, if developed.
would equal the total sugar product of the
world.
"A Stockman." in the Rural New
Yorker, recommends the removal of the
horns from Young calves, saying that the
pain caused to the animal by the operation
is insignificant. 1t is very easily done
when the young horns first become con
spicuously prominent under the skin. The
skin over the horn is the covering which
afterward grows to be the outer and in
sensible casing of the horn; that. in fact.
which is called the horn. The true horn
lies under this, and can easily be removed
by raising flap of the skin and cutting it
out. 1t may be done in n moment, and a
little plaster of tar over the cut protects
the slight wound, which soon heals.

Widows at Saratoga.
BETTING ON ruE RACES AND FLIRTING WIru
WEAK, MODEST MEN.

1t was Chicago lady who this morning
won $500 with which to buy bonbons or
bonnets, whichever you like. Ladies are
getting to be very fond of betting and they
are always pretty safe in their ventures since
they never pay if they lose, and several of
them have made some "lucky hits" this
season. Ii is the fashion now, not only for
ladies', but the children also have their
betting books and are as expert in ing
entries therein as any followers of the turf.
1t took Chicago widow to inveigle a be-
witched old widower into betting a pair of
thoroughbreds against box of cigars. The
widow won, rs they usually do, and while
we write is this moment dashing by behind
the thoroughbreds on her way to the lake,
with another man by her side.
These widows are indeed the most artful OF
creatures, and Saratoga is full of them.
There is one pretty and lively woman of
this species here VINO has two engagements
on hand at the present and several others
impending. She wears two engagement
rings on her little fingers, which would be
embarrassing to most feminines, but not to
this sly widow. When lover No. sits at
her side it is his ring which glitters softly
upon her finger The other ring is tucked
snugly away in her belt. And if she has
not time to remove the ring she turns il
artfuly around so that it appears an in
significant rim of gold to which nobody could
object. This widow, as may be supposed,
has numerous correspondence from love
smitten youths, and her collection of original
love letters is something unique. The other
day she dropped package of letters from
one of her sweethearts, and rival lover
picked it up. This was rather troublesome
for the widow, but, rs usual. she found her
way of escape. There chanced to be another
woman with the same name as her own in
the place, and she declared the letters be-
longed to her, and actually sent them to her,
having first, however, arranged matters with
her namesake by making her a valuable
present. Chicago Inter Ocean.

Cutting Bushes.

Oftentimes when q pasture is situated
in the vicinity of cedar swamp or near y
row of cedars. the seeds, carried by the
wind, will be scattered over the land and
from these will spring myriads of nina
ture cedars. which ii allowed to grow un-
checked will seriously injure if not en-
tirely spoil the land for pasturage, We
know of pasture seeded in this manner
which, having been neglected. is now
about worthless. This season of the year.
Just before the snow falls and after the
ground is frozen, is the most favorable
time to eradicate these. An axe, using
the poll. or maui. should be employed.
A man passing along with such an imple-
ment IN his hands can strike one of these
young cedars a blow and it will snap off
like a pipe stem, the roots being held
firmly by the frozen ground. large
area Of the bushes can be treat
ed in this manner in day.
Cedars after the tops have once been de-
stroyed will not again spring up from the
roots. This is also an exceptionally pro-
pitious season. when the ground is frozen,
for cutting bushes of any kind as there is
no spring or give to bother, thus tighten
ing the labor to quite an extent. Further
more there are no gnats and mosquitoes to
annoy one as there are during the summer.
Some object to cutting bushes in Novem-
Der and December, saying that the roots
are more liable to sprout up than they
would be if the tops were cut in August
or some other month. But in our expe-
rience we have been able to discover very
little if any difference in the sprouting up
qualities of the stumps of bushes cut one
month in the year from that of those
which have been topped in any other
month.
