SPRING GREETING.
SAxTON BLOCK.

Canton Ohio, April 3, 1888.
My NEW DEPARTURE" in business is fully
vindicated by year of successful business be-
yond my most sanguine hopes. And nearly as
much business in the last six weeks as in the
the first four months of last year is not only en-
couraging, but fully proves that my effort and
Plans for Cutting ffthe Enormous Profits neces-
sary to carry on business in the old way, are be-
ing appreciated as they are becoming known.
Having sadly learned that in the old way of do
ing business with Heavy Stocks, Trust, Trade
and Wait, Big Rents and Expenses that more
than two-thirds of allthe profits made are SUNK
IN EXPENSES, and Losses in Bad Accounts, &C.,
adopted NEW DEPARTURE IN BUSI-
NESS on the Strictly Economical Basis of Small
Rents, Mere Nominal Expense, No Trust, No Bad
Accounts. a Small Stock of Goods, supplemented
by an endless variety of Samples from the lead
ing Cloth Houses in the Cities, giving me a
larger variety of styles for my customers to
make selections FROM than any two houses in
the county. And the last year has shown me
that the trade as they learn of the advantages I
offer will buv where they can get THE BEST
GOODS FOR THE LEAST MONEY. MY lines for
the spring and summer are full and complete.
Call and see for yourselves.

"No wont ask no favors if he don't think
enough of me to come, why he Needn't
Although proudly unwilling to seek any at
tention, Jane louged for some demonstration
of her husbands love and care. She had
walked home in the rain too often greatly to
dread such exposure, but a week before the
wife had tasted the joy of being considered,
and longed for some new and further proof
of her companions affection.
Mrs. fuckers heart leaped for joy, when
at noon, she saw the old mares head from
the lecture room window. Indeed her hun
gering heart suddenly became unmanageable,
and entering the carriage poor, melted Jane
sobbed out: "Im sure it is very good for
you, Samuel, to come back for me this rainy
day." and then the tears flowed so fast that
further words were impossible.
Completely taken by surprise, Mr.. Tucker
exclaimed II declare | hadn't no idee
You'd care so much about it,"
81 wouldn't mind the walk" responded the
wife, "bui, Samuel, I'm so happy to have you
care enough about me to come"
The strong man was brushing away tear
from his own cheek now; his tender, better
nature was mastering the hard, selfish spirit
which long possessed him, and, with some
choking, he said "Janc, see I've made an
awful botch of our married life; if you're a
mind to forgive me, III see if can't treat you
from to-day as n woman ought to be treat
ed"
This confession wasall too much for the weep
ing wife, and she answered quickly you're
not bit more to blame than | am I've been
proud and obstinate; but tell you what it
is, we'll begin all over again"
The ice was now thoroughly broken, and
that afternoon Farmer Tucker and his wife
had long talk over the past and future
And in the evening, when they were about
to start for the prayer meeting to be held in
Il neighborng school house, the renewed hus-
band stopped and kissed his wife, saying -
Jane, I've been thinking that married life

An OX.Team for the Farm,

For hauling about the farm and breaking
up land, oxen are, in several respects,
preferable to horses. In the item of feed they
are much cheaper, and this alone is weigh
ty consideration. And then as to the charac-
ter of their work, while they are slow, they
are strong, sure and trusty they do not pull
with such violence and suddenncss as many
horses do, and hence do not bread so much
harness or so many carts. When they hitch
tree or stump, they stop until the driver can
turn them aside This disposition makes
them much better than the horse for hauling
in the woods or in new grounds Many
horses, as soon as they make hitch with a
a vehicle, begin to pull harder or become
fretful, and generally end by breaking the
cart or some part of the harness. For haul
ing rails, wood, litter, &c, about the farm,
oxen are the best and safest team, though Il
little slower, generally, than n horse.
On the score of economy the scale is alto.
gether in favor of the OK. A pair of oxen
costing much less than one horse, will do
more work than the horse, making it unne-
cessary on a two horse farm to keep but one
horse. Thus there is a great annual saving
in both corn and long forage, and the manure
from two steers is more than that of one
horse, The board of a farm horse for one
year would buy three or four oxen. And

pair of oxen does excellent work. but they
are not well adapted to field work in summer
time, though entire crops are frequently made
with no other team Even where there are
plenty ofhorscs to do all the work of farm,
it is best to have one OK, or pair, to do the
rough work. For getting out litter for com.

''Speed the PIOsC.o
Flowing and Ridging Tobacco.

AS the tobacco plant is rapid grower,
and natures its crop in short period of time,
too much attention can hardly be given to
fitting the soil. The more the soil can be
turned and stirred, the more thoroughly will
it be pulverized and the more fully the manure
incorporated through it, If the soil is stub.
BILE land it is usually plowed in the fall, and
again in the spring as early as its condition
will allow, and again still later, or shortly be-
fore planting time. If a timothy sod is TO be
planted with tobacco, should prefer to pillow
it early in the spring so that it may be par
TALLY rotted by the time the plants are set
out. In this case thorough cultivation and
narrowing should be given preparatory to
marking and ridging for the plants. Clover
ground usually leaves the soil in excellent
condition when turned down, and may be left
until late in May before icing plowed, which
will give it time to make considerable growth
of top, which will prove advantageous to the
soil and to the tobacco. In all cases, what
ever the nature or condition of the SOIL it
should be reduced to fineness on the surface
by use of the harrow and roller. Next in
order is to work off the patch into rows three
and one-half or four feet apart, with corn

usually planted in rows four feet apart
and are about two feet apart in the row.
think this the best distance for setting the
plants ON strong soil, and where the large
growing seed leaf varieties are grown. With
Havana seed, the rows should not be more
than three or three and a-half feet apart at
most, and the plants may be set nearer togc-
ther in the rows
When the rows are marked out they are
passed over with cultiyator with the shares
adjusted so as to throw the earth into ridge
directly over the marks. These ridges are

Among the northern men who went down
to Gen McDowells head quarters shortly
before the battle of Bull Run, ''iust to see the

flight to the North after the defeat relates to

says Mr.. Marshall, "who had come down to

in advocating vigorous prosecution of the
war. He was large man, and wore long

as the crowd gradually swept past him, he at
last began to think the rebels must he almost
within grasp of his flying buster tails. Blind
with perspiration and dust, he tripped on n

he could fall on such a round stomach. A

round that he might see his focman's face,

Ensilage,

A correspondent ofthe Wilmington Ga:ate
gives his views on Ensiagc He says:
The system ofenslage is the preservation
Of green corn fodder green clover or rye by
means of pressure in air.tght vaults or pits
called silos atfording those who practice it
cheap, wholesome and nutritious food for
their stock
Last summcra year your correspondent got
his courage screwedup TO pitch of building
q silo. Digging some eight feet of earth
out of a space about eighteen feet long by
ten feet wide, he built himselfa vault sur
rounded by concrete walls ten inches thick
not getting it finished in time that season he
had to delay till the past one, faith in the I'M
dertaking growing stronger meanwhile
Last September placed in my silo cornfod-
der in green sweet state, grown for the pur-
pose, TO the amount say twenty. five tons.
For pressure to exclude the air used bar
rels of stone, applying Herewith about 100
pounds pressure to the square foot. Having
never seen silo in my life before, and not
being perfectly acquainted with the exact
nature of the ensilage, when taken ont after
pressure had ceased and it was considered
ready for feeding, you can hardly realize my
feelings as hosted the first row of barrels
of section, and grabbing handful of the
pressed fodder, walked to the yard to witness
how greedily my favorite COW gobbled it out
of sight
Since that date have been feeling my way,
and watching the effects of the feeding with
ensilage, and have arrived at some definite
conclusions. First, my cows are always
ready for their rations of cnsiage. Second,
it keeps up the yield of milk. Third, richness
has been added to the cream, good butter of

SMALL BEGINNINGS.

by CHARLES MACKAY.
A traveller through dusty road strewed acorns
on the lea:
And one took root and sprouted up, and grew into
tree.
Love sought its shade at evening time, to breathe
his early vows;
And age was pleased, in heats of noon, to bask
beneath its boughs;
The dormouse loved its dangling twigs the birds
sweet music bore:
1t stood glory In its place, blessing evermore.
A little springfield lost its way amid the grass nd
fern,
passing stranger scooped a well, where weary
men might turn;
He walled 1t in, and hung with care a adle at the
brink.
that toll might drink.
He passed again, and 10! the WELL by summer
never dried
Had cooled ten thousand parched tongues and
saved life beside.
A dreamer dropped random thought twas old
and yet twas new:
A simple fancy of the brain, but strong ia being
true;
1t shone upon genial mind, and 10 its light be-
came
A lamp of life, n beacon ray, monitory flame
The thought was small; its issue great: watch
fire on the hill;
1t sheds its radiance far adown, and cheers the
valley still.
nameless man. amid a crowd that thronged the
daily mart,
Let fall a word of hope.and love, unstuded, from
the heart;

from death.

TIE LAW OF PUBLIC SALEs-In sale by
auction there are three parties, viz: The
owner of the property to be sold the auc-
tioneer, and n portion of the public. The
articles must be sold without reserve, and
unless the vendor reserves one bid he cannot
bid himself or have the auctioneer or any one
else bid for him. There are cases on record
where bid was not reserved, and the ven
dor had bidder who bought it in, and
afterwards suit was brought against the ven
dor by the highest bidder for the article and
it was decided that he, the plaintiff, was the
highest outside bidder entitled to the article
against the vendor So, also, if any article is
struck off to person, and it is afterwards
asccrtained that the vendor or auctioneer
practced fraud by bidding himself, or had
buffers, it was held both by the courts of
England, and so repe ,tedly decided by tie
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, that the
purchaser could not be held, but the pur-
chaser, rs soon as he discovers the fraud
practiced on him, must return or tender the
article to the vendor.

OvERFEEDING IIoRsEs-It is mistaken
sense of kindness TO overfeed horses. 1t may
make them look sleek and handsome, yet it
impairs their general health and makes them
more liable to disease and ailments When
horses are regularly worked they should
have strong food and plenty of it, but when
seldom or irregularly used the food should
be in proportion to the amount of work, else
they will become overfat, incapable of usual

agement Of fruit trees Pruning is especially
important Some believe that if the founda-

will be no necessity to prune an adult tree.
This does not accord with the writer's eXper-
