Much harm has been done by the old
injunction "to milk as rapidly as posi-
ble" Never attempt to hurry the opera
ton; milk steadily and keep the milk
drawn as fast as it will flow naturally.
Don't stop to talk or loiter about the
milking, but do not grasp the teat as if
you were going to crush it in your hand
or thrust your thumbs into the udder, as
if bearing your weight on them. The
operation Of being MIXED should be a
pleasant one to the COW, and it will be if
it is done rightly.

a successful dairyman feeds his cows
night and morning the year round, and
in each feed puts teaspoonful of salt.
He considers that method of sailing COWS
preferable to the usual one of giving ami
mails salt once or twice a week. and
thinks his method adds largely to the
amount of milk given.

A few days ago the telegraph announced
change in the rules for the redemption of torn
United States notes. Printed copies have since
been received by all of the banks The only
change which concerns the public is that two
tifths of note may be missing, instead of one
tenth as before. The government still protects
itself from the fraudulent practice of pasting
together two notes. Under the new rules frag-
ments constituting clearly three-fifths of the
original note are redeemed in full. If less than
three-fifths but clearly one-half they are re-
deemed one-haf. If less than IA half, nothing
Is paid unless the fragment is accompanied by
sworn affidavit that the missing part is de-
stroyed. The execution of the last rule is so
troublesome and expensive as to be practically
useless to the public except in the case of notes
Of large denominations. The rule s-the whole,
half or nothing. There is no important
change in the redemption of national bank
notes. Torn silver certificates being redeema-
BILE in silver dollars, are the least desirable of
any form of our paper currency.

The value of onions as a food for fowls
can scarcely be overrated They are a
preventive remedy for many of the dis
eases to which domestic fowls are liable.
For gapes onions are the best things that
can be fed. We recommend giving fowls,
and especially young chickens, as many
as they will eat, as often as three times
week. They should be chopped up fine.

HEN MANURE. Good hen manure
from fowls which have been literally fed
is worth almost as much as guano. 1t
should be put into barrels as soon as
taken up from the chicken house, kept in
dry place till wanted, little plaster
mixed with it, and before using pound up
fine Apply it same as guano. Selected.

A New Phase OF the Liquor Question.

The authorities of Maine have encountered a
new difficulty in the administration of the Pro-
hibitory Liquor laws of that State. The liquor
dealers have discovered that under an old dcci-
sion of the Supreme Court of the United States,
several times reatrmed, any person has the
right to import or purchase from bonded ware
houses whiskey other distilled spirits, or malt
liquors in original packages, and that such i'm
portations and purchases are not subject to the
laws of the State, whether prohibitory or re
strictire. \ number ofliquor dealers in Maine,
therefore, have begun the importation and sale
of distilled spirits in original packages. The
original packages are very small, so that any
person desiring liquor for his own use can in
this way supply himself, thus evading the laws
Of the State against the sale and consumption
Of ardent spirits. The result works harm in
two ways. First, the consumption of liquor is
increased; second, the domestic manufacturers
are placed at disadvantage. Congressman
Dingley was in conference with several mem
bers of the Ways and Means Committee on this
subject, and on Tuesday expects to appear
before the Ways and Means Committee to for
mally argue the matter, and to advocate some
proposition to cure the evil, which he declared
is rapidly growing. [Perley's despatch to Bos

800 frozen herrings shipped during the past

of them for the occasion, but the rail

about ten o'clock Wednesday night.

the day was duly observed by our

Mr. James Edwards, one of the
extremely few wideawake, energetic
old-time Superiorites, who has been
here the past summer looking after
his interests, left us Thursday evening
for the East. Mr.. Edwards has been
one of the principal leaders in the
Uppertown matters during the season,
and helped to get the mills located
there which are to be built next seas
on, and has also started and will next
summer extensively operate large
brick yard. Nearly thirty years ago
he invested some $4,000 in Superior
town property and copper claims near
the town and then spent some $4,000
in prospecting for copper. He is as
confident of success today as he was
then, and has recently put small
force of men to work on the old mines
and is opening up new ones. He has
one vein of copperbearing rock which
is about five feet in thickness, but he
wants to find a better one, and upon
his return in the spring will prosecute
his search with creator vigor and with
a stronger force than at present. If
all the old property owners had the
same enterprise and push in them that
Mr.. Edwards has, Superior would expe-
rience such boom as would astonish
the world. Mr.. Edwards will spend
the winter at HYDE Park, Pa.

week or two with friends in Minneap-
oils, will proceed to Boston, where she
will spend the winter with fer mother,
and join her husband in the spring.

Cor Duluth Bee: The recent devel-
opments in real estate matters near
Grand Portage, and Mcguire & Light
body's mammoth sale, causes a happy
smile to steal over the contrawise
countenance of VIM. Cramwell of this
place, who is large owner of land
Immediately adjoining that sold by
Lightbody and Mcguire. Should Mr..
CramwelI's possessions assume similar
developments that gentleman will
reckon his returns among the millions.
Last week James Bardon closed the
sale of bis single mill at Superior,

of Michigan. Mr.. Maxim has been
here for some months and is one of the
principal owners of the Nemadji BOOM
The new owners will thoroughly over
haul the mill, put in new and i'm
proved single saving machines and
make other improvements. They
have already arrangements in view
for all the timber necessary to RIM the
mil to its fullest capacity, day and
night, and expect to start up early in
January.
