Mr.. Levi Eldridge, aged eighty-one
years, and his wife, Mrs. Priscilla Ell
bridge, aged seventy-five, reside on a
farm on Beach Hill, in Mercer, Me.
The farm contains one hundred acres.
They have hired only 81 days labor this
season. When Mr. Eldridge has had
more than ne could accomplish alone
his wife has gone into the field with him
and helped him out. They have prepared
the ground for % acres of corn, pota-
toes and beans, and four acres of oats.
They raised ninety-six bushels of oats,
twenty bushels of beans, and thirty
bushels of potatoes. The corn was
hauled to the canning factory. They
cut sixteen tons of hay, and the now
ing was all done by hand. Mr..
Eldridge moved II acres in halliday,
he averaging during the cutting of the
hay two acres per day. - Boston Post.

Roman Horses.

There are more fine horses to be seen
in Rome than in any capital in Europe,
Vienna not excepted. 1t is the winter
home of vast number of wealthy En-
glish, French, Germans and Americans,
and the prevailing vanity is the pardon
able one of fine horses and costly
equipages. Therefore the very finest
and best in the world are brought in
here and displayed daily. The horses
in carriages are almost entirely En-
glish, and size as well as action is a
requisite. 1t is not uncommon to see a
pair of horses in a carriage twenty
hands high, faultless in shape, and per-
feet in action. They step with the mai
esty of King and the grace of wom-
an; they are dainty monsters who move
as though they knew their beauty and
appreciate their position. Upon these
magnificent creatures before u carriage
as elegant as mechanical skill can de-
wise, and as elegant as highly paid taste
can ornament, put harnesses glittering
with gold and silver, and you have a
brave sight and one to be really en-
joyed. There are thousands of these
| equipages in Rome, and any fine aft
ernoon there is procession of them
the whole length OF the principal
streets.
The natural Roman horse is an infe-
rior brute, hardly superior TO the alb
surd little rat-like donkey who does
most of the labor the horse is an un-
| der-sized, under-fed, meek-looking be-
ing, always with raw spots on him, and
always humble as though he realized
his inferior station in the animal king
dom. The carriage horses in Rome are
all imported, the natural Roman ANNA
not being adapted to that service.-D
H. Locke, in Toledo Blade.
The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1883-11-24
Corn and Oats for Horses.

The comparative value of corn and
oats for horses may be briefly stated as
follows: The former is deiicientin many
of the elements of nutrition so necessa-
ry for recuperating the constant wear
and tear which necessarily takes place
in the body of living animal. On this
account horses which are fed exclusively
on corn and hay do not receive that kind
of nourishment which appears necessary
for the due support and maintenance OF
the animal fabric; hence we must not be
surprised that corn-fed horses show
signs of being languid, by sweating pro
fusely while being worked, lack OF vi
tally, etc. Oats, on the contrary. con-
tain more of the essential elements OF
nutrition than any other article of food
which can be fed with impunity to
horses. Oats are not only the most nat
ural food for horses, but are decidedly
the most nutritious. They are the
cheapest, because there is less risk in
feeding them, and experience has proved
that horses properly fed on oats and
timothy hay can, with regular exercise,
good grooming and proper sanitary reg
ulatons. be brought to the highest
state of physical culture, and can per-
form more work with less evidence Of
fangue than when fed on any other ar
ticle of food. -Market dRd Farm.

The grain of wheat consists of four

FATEFUL EXCURSION.

a Car Loaded with ExcursionIsts Rolled
Over n Twenty-Foot EmbanISment-At
Least One Person Fatally and Large
Number Seriously Injured.
KANSAS Cry, Mo-, Nov. 10.
bad wreck occurred on the Rock Is
land Railway at Jamesport, small station
sixteen miles south of Trenton, Grundy
County, at eight O'Clock this morning. A
special coach filled with st. Paul e. Mime
apolis excursionists, en- route to Los Ange-
les, Cal, attached to the rear Of the regu-
lar express train from Chicago, left the
track, and, breaking loose from the re-
mainder of the train, rolled down twenty
foot embankment, totally demolishing the
coach and injuring twelve passengers, one
fatally, four seriously and seven slightly.
When the wrecked coach landed at the bot
tom Of the embankment the stoves set the
splntsred woodwork on fire, but the fire
was put out before it gained much head
way. The coach rolled over twice and it is
remarkable that so few were injured. The
train officials went promptly TO the rescue
of the wounded and conveyed them to
Trenton, the headquarters of the division.
The following is a list of the injured:
Adam Gotham, terribly crushed; died
three hours afterwards.
Mrs. Adam Gotham, two-year-old child,
and grand niece, all badly cut on head and
injured internally.
q. w. Hendrickson, back badly hurt and
one rib broken.
". A. Messenger, bad cut in head and
severe bruises.
Mrs. J. McSmith, head cut and injured
internally; all of st. Paul.
j. NJ Whitney, internal injuries.
Mrs. j. r. Wilson, hip crushed; all OF
Minneapolis.
Emmett Comber, brakeman; hip badly
bruised.
Fully twenty others sustained slight
bruises. The wounded were left at Tren.
ton in charge of railway surgeons. The
train proceeded on to the city, arriving
eight hours late. The wrecked coach be-
longed to the Minneapolis 81 st. Louis Road
and the accident was caused by the break
ing Of a wheel in the rear truck.

DALLAS, TEX, Nov. 10,
The wreck on the Houston 81 Texas Cen.
trail Railroad, near Sherman, yesterday
evening, killed the fireman, N. w. Peregoy,
instantly, injured the express messenger,
name not yet learned here, about the spine,
supposed fatally, and Engineer Culpepper
had his left leg broken and was seriously
injured otherwise. None of the passengers
were seriously hurt. Central Railroad men
at this point deny the rumor that a convict
gang maliciously fixed the track for the ac-
.cident, and also that collision occurred
with the gravel train.
