Farmers WHO burn green wood are
probably not aware of the waste OF heat.
The sap uses up-that is, carries off in a
laten sttate-a very large portion of the
heat produced BY its carbon, or its dry
material. As much man and team pow
err is required to haul three or four cords
OF green wood as for six or eight cords OF
dry wood. The lesson is: cut the fuel,
and split it as finely as it is to be used,
in the grove; haul it home when well
dried, and keep it in a dry place for use.
1t will be worth far more Tor heating pur-
poses than if burned green, or wet, or
damp even. The only exception to this
advice is, when by reason of easier haul
ing on snow, and on account of the leis-
IRE Of men and teams in winter, it may
be expedient to haul home the green
wood then; but in all cases let it be well
dried before it is used.

DR.. Luciuq l. Barber, of New York,
is reciting in the columns Of the Milwau-
kee Sunday Telegraph the story of Pho
neer life in Wisconsin in 1886 and 1887,
and he tells the following of early days
in WATERFOWL, which, although at the ex-
pense of our first settlers, we must give to
our readers:
Eut with lis. at the shanty tavern, the
great financial question was, "now TO re.
deem our shirts from the washer-woman.'
AS to our hording house keepers, they
were compelled to keep us, or lose what
we alrpa ly owed them: but chow to get
our shirts from the laundry was the
nreat question of '37. We res0rted to all
sorts of shifts, we borrowed shirts, we
loaaed each other shirts, we wore our
shirts long time; sometimes longer than
the laws of hygiene or etiquette would
permit, though not so long as the men at
Juhnsons Rapids, (nOW WATERFOWL,
wore theirs. The same reason did not
exist with us as with them. 1t was re-
ported of the denizens of that place, then

supplied with suckers and black bas,
they made these fish their constant daily

that when they attempted to remove

When General Jackson was candidate
for the Presidency, in 1922, not only did
the party opposed to him abuse him for
his public acts, which, if unconstitutional
or violent, were legitimate subject for re.
probation, but they DETAINED the character
OF his wife. On one occasion newspaper
published in Nashville was placed upon the
Generals table. He glanced over it, and
his eyes fell upon an article in which the
character Of Mrs. Jackson was violently as
sailed. So soon as he had read it he sent
for his trusty old servant, Dunwoodie.
SADDLE my horse" said he to him, in a
whisper, "and put my holsters on him."
Mrs. Jackson watched him, aud though
she heard not word she saw mischief IN
eyes. The General went out after few
moments, when she took up the paper and
understood everything. She ran out TO the
south gate OF the Hermitage, by which the
General would have to pass. She had not
been there more than few seconds before
the General rode up with the countenance
OF a mailman. She placed herself before
the horse, and cried out:
"Oh, General, don't go to Nashville! Let
that poor editor live"
"Let me alone" he replied; show came
you TO know what was going for?"
She answered: 81 saw it in the paper
after you went out; put up your horse and
go back"
"lle replied furiously: "But will go
get out Of my way"
Instead Of this she grasped his bride
with both hands.
He cried TO her! Il say let 60 my horse !.
The villain that reviles my wife shall not
livew
She grasped the reirs the tighter and be.
gan TO expostulatc with him, saying that
she was the one who ought TO be angry,
hut that she forgave her prosecutors from
the bottom OF her heart, and prayed for
them-that he should forgive if be hoped
to be forgiven. AT last, by reasoning, her
entreates and her tears, she so worked
upon her husband that he seemed molli-
fed to Il certain extent. She wound up
by saying:
NO, general, you shall not take the life
OF my reviler-you dare not do it; for it is
written, Vengeance is mine, will repay,
saith the Lord ="
The iron.nerved hero gave way before
the pleading OF his beloved wife, and re-
piled:
81 yield to yon; but had it not been for
you and the words OF the Almighty, the
wretch should not have lived an hour"
