FEED FOR DAIRY COWS.

Mr.. ). A. Smith, a western dairy
man, writing of the Importance of
feed and proper treatment of dairy
COWS, gives some excellent sugges-
tons on this topic. He says that
dairymen are often surprised at the
light weight of their milk the next
mClning after q cold rain storm,
through which their cows have suf-
fered unstabled, and it is only IL nat
ural result of such treatment. The
COW don't eat SO much for one thing !;
and another is, part of what she
does eat goes to repair the waste of
her system in withstanding the effects
of the storm, and that keeps a per
cent. out of the milk pail, until she
has recovered from the effects of the
exposure. 1t is also true that a COW
affected by short feed or painful ex-
poSufe not only loses IN the quantity
of her yield of milk, but in the fatty
matter it contains. In word, ma.
ture has so organized the COW thai
she revenges herself on her owners
pocket for cruel neglect and shor
feed; and a farmer might just al
well try to dodge taxes and death a
to escape the unwise treatment of
COW. In point of fact, when thu
treated she takes the cream first, ant
gives the owner what skim milk sh
cannot asslmilate. The only way f
get profit ont of her is to fill her s
full that she runs over, and take tn
surplus for your gold mine.

Swept into the Stream
One Thousand Acres of Land and fright
Smart of Bears.o

On the deck of big Mississippi steamboat stood
aged Southern planter. Indicating by sweep
of his the waters the boat was passing over, he
said to passenger from the North 'sWhen I was
twelve years old | killed my first bear on a new
plantation my father then cutting out of forest
that grew directly the waters of this bend.
That was mighty good plantation and there was
right smart of bears there, too But that one thou
sand of land went into the Mississippi years
1t is putting strain upon the figure to say that
great forests of youthful hope, womanly beauty and
manly strength are swept in the way every
year into the great, turbid torrent of disease and
death. Yet it should not be so. That it is so is
disgrace as well as loss. People largely too
careless too stupid defend their interests
the most precious of which is health. That gone,
all is gone. Disease is simple, but TO reeklessness
or ignorance the simplest things might well be
complex proposition in Comic Sections. As the
along their shores, arise in few mountain springs,
so all our ailments can be traced to impure blood
and small group of disordered organs.
The most effective and inclusive remedy for dis
ease is PARKER'S TONIC. 1t goes to the sources
of pain and weakness. In response to its action,
the liver kidneys, stomach and heart begin their
work afresh, and disease is driven out The Tonic
Is not, however, an intoXicant, but desire
for strong drink. Have you dyspepsia, rheumatism,
or troubles which have refused to yield to other
agents? Here is your help.

BEST BAKING POWDER,
Interesting Tests Made by the
Government Chemist.

DR.. Edward G. Love, the present An
alytical Chemist for the Government, has
recently made some interesting expert
ments as to the comparative value of
baking powders. DR.. Loves tests were
made to determine what brands are the
most economical to use, and as their ca
pacity lies in their leavening power, tests
were directed solely to ascertain the
available gas of each powder. DR.. Loves
report gives the following;

Among other gentlemen net grad

red the degree of Ii. ID. upon Ihos.
Talbot. e. S. Grant and Rutherford
b. HAYES, and her president, fellows
and overseers are now perplexed
over the propriety Of comforting the
degree upon Gov. Ben. F. Butler.
Several leading Northern journals
are on their ears at the possibility OF
the decorate being so unworthlly
bestowed, and protest against 1t. In
view of what is thus urged against
him. the New York SER thinks !:
Perhaps the best course for Gen.
Butler-who, by theway, is already
a Doctor of Laws, and very ade-
quate Doctor, too-would be to wait
until the degree is rendered, and
then to decline it, not on the ground
of personal unworthiness as alleged,
but because the Harvard LII. ID. be-
came meaningless when it was given
20 Thomas Talbot, ridiculous when
it was given 10 Ulysses 5. Grant,
and positively disrePutable when
Hayes got it."

A Washington correspondent Of
the American notes afact thatmust
have become apparent to every OBJ
server of recent Developments, viz:
that the indiscreet manner in which
Mr.. Carlisle's friends have been
pressing his claims has seriously and
perhaps fatally injured bis prospects
for the SpeakershiP. We referred,
two weeks ago, to the warfare upon
Mr.. Radall, which the special sup
porters of Mr.. Carlisle have been
wagiDg, and are not surprised to
learn. as we do from the correspon-
dent above quoted, that observing
men at Washington and throughout
the Northern and Western States
are settling down into the opinion
that Mr.. Randall will be the next
Speaker, and Mr.. Atkins, of this
State, the next Clerk Of the House
of Representatives. 1t is not meant
that there is any combination be-
tween Randall and Atkins. 1t so
happens that the fitness of each
gentleman points him out, thus ear
", as the most probably successful
man for the position to which he as
pires. Mr.. Atkins, during his terms
of Congressional service, establish
lished a national reputation. as
chairman of the Appropriation Com
mittee he did noble service and com
manded the plaudits of the whole
country. He is an accomplished
parliamentarian and personally very
popular with his old associates OF
both parties. His qualifications for
the Clerkship are frst-class. The
fact that he will no doubt be sup
ported by the entire delegation from
Tennessee, besides receiving gener-
Gus support from all the ooulheri = =
and Western States, has furnished
the pretext for an insinuation, on
the part of certain free-trade or
gans, of g bargain and intrigue be-
tween the friends of Randall and
Atkins. This insinsation appearing
in Cincinnati paper was promptly
and Indignantly rebuked by Mr.
Atkins in a personal letter to the
editor. The insinuation, which had
no foundation whatever, except that
many Congressman were known OF
presumed to be favorable to both
Randall and Atkins for their respec-
tive positions, was put forth IN a
bulldozing spirit by the indisereet-

TIse extension Of the Knexville Branch
by the Louisville s Nashville Railroad
Company to Jellico kentucky State
line) has been completed for some time,
yet the management have refused to
open It for business until sueh time as
it could be placed in perfect order. The
'extension Of the fine from Knoxviifez
to the same pointsby the East 'rennes-
see, Virginia & Georgia Railroad is also
completed, and we now have an I'M
broken line between these cities. The
value of this line between Louisville
and Knoxville is too great to be set
forth in an article of this kind, but it
will be partly conceived when it is
known that the distance between Loais-..
: Vile and Knoxville and the system of
railroads centering in Knoxville is
shortened 157 miles by this new line.
Arrangements have been perfected TO
open the line between Louisville and
Knoxville on June 4, and on that date
solid through trains with Pullman
sleepers will be inaugurated. The Pull
man cars will be run only between
Louisville and Knoxville, but the other
portion of the train will be run solid
between Louisville and Warm Springs,
N. c., where direct connection will be
made for AsheYille, Spartansburg, Col
umbus, Chatlette, and all commercial
points of North and South Carolina.
This line will be known as the Louis
Vile, Cincinnati g Knoxville Short
Line "Jellics Route" BY this route it
is only 265 miles between Louisville and
| Knoxville, and rates between these
points will be greatly reduced. The
fare heretofore from Louisville to
Knoxville, 81 80, will be az the open
ing of this line, limited, 81 20; unlimit-
ed, So These low rates of fare between
Louisville and Knoxville will certainly
establish increased commercial interests
between the two cities, with train SER
vice so arranged that the commercial
man can leave Louisville after supper
| and take breakfast in Knoxville in the
morning, or vice versa. s-i.aa
