Agricultural Notes.
MIX rs u Farm Crop.

MANY farmers who keep inferior
cows. give them poor care. and make
Il miserable quality of butter, thinking
there is no profit in keeping cows tn
produce milk. 1t IS questionable,
however, if there is more profitable
farm crop than milk. TO make
money out of milk it Is necessary to
keep good COWS. 10 give them til"
best of food. to best0w proper care,
and To have Il market near 1T hand.
A report is published of the profits at
q herd of thirty-three cows belonging
to Mr.. Chas. Miller, of Lake Mills,
Wis. during the year 1881. No ac-
count is kept of the milk consumed at
home during the time. The owner
of the cows sold at the creamery at
Lake Mills, 22i 1856 pounds of milk,
for which he received 81, 1867 .25. This
is an average of over 81 per COW.
Pork worth $500 was also made from
SKINNED milk brought back from the
factory. Ten calves were raised that
were valued at 500. The total re-
ceipts for the cows were 1907 25,
or nearly 800 per COW. or course
hard labor was required to produce
iced for these cows during the time
they were kept in stables, and con
slant care was needed to draw the
milk ut the proper time and to take
it to the creamery. But the sum of
money received was large, and re.
ceiving cash for farm products at the
end of every week or month is an
important consideration. Many farm.
ers who produce little but grain re.
ceive money but once u year, and are
obliged to buy most of their supplies
On credit. This credit system has
been the ruin Of many farmers. 1t
has caused them to buy injudiciously
and TO pay large prices. Dairying,
rs ut present conducted, is u cash
business, and on that account has
special claims on the attention of
farmers.

Paved with Extinct Stars.

In a recent scientific paper, Sir John
Lubbock says: "Like the sand of the sea,
the stars of heaven have ever been used
as effective symbols of number, and the
improvements in our methods of obser-
walton have added fresh force to our Or
iginal observations. We now know that
our earth is but fraction of one out Of
at least 75,0O0,000 words. But this is
not all. In addition to the luminous
heavenly bodies, we can not doubt that
there are countless others, invisible to
us from their great distance, smaller
size. or feebler light; indeed, we know
that there are many dark bodies which
now emit no light, or comparatively lit
tie. Thus in the case of Procyon, the
existence of an invisible body is proved
by the movement of the visible star
Again may refer to the curious pheno-
mena presented by Algol, bright star
in the head of Medusa. This star shines
without change for two days and thir-
teen hours; then, in another three and a
half hours, reassumes its original brill
fancy. These changes seem certainly to
indicate the presence of an Opaque body
which intercepts at regular intervals
part of the light emitted by Algol. Thus
the floor of heaven is not only thick in.
laid with patines of bright gold but
studded also with extinct stars--once
probably as brilliant as our own sun,
but now dead cold, as Helmbolz tells us
that our sun itself will be some seven.

he left, after some talk. and took up
his stand once more on the platform.
A moment later the train pulled out.
The forsaken husband still held his
seat on the platform rail, and rode out
of the depot. When II hundred yards
away from it he jumped from the
moving car, and standing upon a rail
road tie he waved his handkerchief.
His truant wife noticing this rev
move waved hers in return, and she
was still waving II when the train
went out of sight. The forsaken one
returned TO the depot and commenced
talking to the police officer who had
first accosted him. The officer intro
duced the man to n Globe Democrat re.

At the word "detective" the man
said that his name was Harry Dunkln.
and that he was book.keeper IN II

and earned $3.50 u month. He would
not give the name of the firm EN-

A QUEER ELOPEMENT.
A Husband Going to the Train to See

There was considerable excitement
at the union depot in st. Louis the

and making so much noise that finally

shouted the husband, whose "full.

The officer didn't know what to do
in the matter, when finally the young
man told him not to mind arresting
the woman, as he had made up his
mind to allow her to take the jewelry
and money, although she was leaving
him and taking up with another man.

AYERS CNrIIARTIc PILLS are the best
Of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized ma
tions, proves them the best and most
cllectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
eilcctual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements Of which they prevent

the hest and safest rhysic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tions, where L mild but eticctual

Prices Of Short-Horns.

The public has been informed many
times during the past few years. that
the bottom has fallen out of the
Short.horn business" and that here
after animals of that breed will sell
at low prices. Many have declared
that the Herefords and polled Angus
were the coming cattle for beef, ana
that the Jerseys and Ayershires
would displace all other breeds in
first class dairy herds. When it was
announced that Hon. NJ. IL. Cochrane,
of Canada. would sell all of his
Duchesses and most of his Bates strain
of Short-horns at the Union stock
yards on the 18th of April, many
concluded that he WAS preparing To
retire from the business of breeding
the stock he had given so much attsn
ton to. and was about to give his ut.
lenliOn to other kinds of cattle.
When the day of sale came lie made
a neat little speech, in which he de
clared that slort-horns were his first

and that it was his intention to breed
