Pioneer History OF America.

This splendid volume of 1882 pages
crowded with elegant and striking full
page illustrations has just been issued by
Jones Bros. & Co.. st. Louis, Mo. This ex-
tensive work has connected historical value
as well as thrilling narrative interest. The
author is perspicuous and dramatic writ.
er, and carries each recital forward to an
absorbing climax. The hundred engrav.
ings are not only well drawn, but are full
of thought, suggestion and feeling. The
work is written in the best, most graphic,
historical style, which, combined with the
intensely interesting facts detailed, will
hold the attention Of the reader through
out. No other book on Pioneer Life APP
proaches it in vividness of description,
purity and vigor of style, accuracy of de-
TAIL and fascination Of the story. The ex-
cellent introduction by DIR. Ridpath, writ

"A correspondent of the Rural Ne,o
Yorker, who has been experimenting in
planting potatoes, large and small, cut
and uncut, says he has never been able
to detect any difference either in the
yield or quality of potatoes raised from
large or small seed. But he has in
every case noticed a marked difference
in the results obtained from planting
cut and uncut potatoes. This difference
was invariably in favor of the former
method.
I'm paper read at meeting dur
ing the recent New York State fair
Prof. William Brown, of the Ontario
Agricultural College. advanced the idea
that the practice of shearing both lambs
and mature sheep twice year might
be successfully adopted if accompanied
with high feeding and good care. He
illustrated his opinion with a supposed
case of lot of ShropshIres, and it is
possible the downs would be better for
this than would either the long-wool or
merinos. He would shear in August
and again quite early in the spring. Civ

There is in the following item that
which suggests line of action which

SAYS: Captain Robert f. Stafford and
Captain Joseph Davis have immense
bodies of land inclosed for pasture, and
neither of them has ever had fence
cut or any trouble with the smaller
cattle-owners. They never fence on
any land but their own. They do not
even fence in all that belongs to them.
When they are inclosing pasture
grounds they always leave little land
and water on the outside for their
neighbors cattle to Craze on"

RAYMoND's CRIMINAL CAREER ENDED.

"Steve" Raymond, the fOrger, who has appeared
many times in the criminal courts as defendant,
ended bis yesterday unless he escapes or has
his sentence committed by the Governor He pro-
sented coupons of forged Union Pacific bonds at the
office of the company on several occasions. Inc
forgeres were discovered and he was arrested on
September l. after he had received the check In
payment of the coupons. When he was arrested he
tore up the check and tried to swallow II. He
was convicted of forgery in the first degree.
As he had previously served a term for forgery
he was subject under the provisions of the Code 10
imprisonment for life. The section provides that
where the sentence for the later offence may be
imprisonment for life, the sentence If 1t is sec
ond offence, must be for life. Under this section
all discretion is taken from the Judge. Raymond
was arragned before Recorder Smytn for sentence.
His demeanor was as careless as usual. When the
Recorder began to address him, Raymond said
coolly: Il hope your Honor will cut the lecture
short There's been talk enough about this case"
every well" said the Recorder. Il was only going
to say that UNDER he law the sentence on conviction
for the second offence of this kind must be mprs-
onment for life But the sentence seems unusually
severe for crimes of this character and if you prove
well behaved | may be willing, after you have
undergone part of the punishment TO sign an applI
cation that may be made for the communication Of
your sentence. The sentence of the Court is that
yOu be imprisoned i'll the State Prison at hard labor
for the term of your natural lite"
Raymond was taken TO the TOmbs TO be conveyed
TO the State Prison.
