Layton Captured.
PINK EYE.

Albert g. Layton, who murder
ed j. IL. Everett at Forsyth ON the
20 ult, was captured at his brother
in laws near BerryvilIe last Tues
day by B. W. Henslee and Jack
Vanzant, the parties who assisted
him to get away, and who propose
to give him tho $500 reward for the
purpose of defending himself. La.
tor developments IN tho tragedy
make 1t probable that the first pub.
lished statements in regard to the
killing were somewhat biased and
that Everett was not altog ether
blameless. II is claimed that Lay
ton acted wholly In seli-defenso.
A late Springfield exchange says /:
at is reported that the parties
who offered the reward for tho ar
rest of Layton refuse to pay it over,
and that Layton is at large In For.

EDUCATIONAL,


There are 65 school districts in
Boone county, and 5l0l persons be-
tween the ages of 6 and 81.
\ j. V. Evans was in Harrison on
last Saturday and reported school
work as booming in tho section in
which he is ut work.
Jos. Thorn has succeeded in
working up quito an interest IN his
school at Oak Grove, and the oiti.
zens of the community have deter.
mined TO cell the school house so
that the school can BIO extended in.
II the winter.
The Co. Examiner has been
censured somewhat BY various par,
Ties in the county for his efforts IN
having the Public Schools closed
during the Institute at BerryYille,
and by way OF explanation he
would say that he was personally
requested by the State Superinten-
dent to call the attention OF Diroc
tors to the law on this point.
Friend Newman, OF the Elixir
Bugle, in speaking ef.fhe BerryvllIe
Normal Institute, says:
We are glad 10 800 tho State Su.
perintendent pushing tho great
cause along by such gatherings, as
we are well satisfied much good will
result therefrom, but we would sug.
gest that in future he would set the
time long enough ahead so that
school boards could fix their terms
to suit. This robbing the poor chill.
dren of two weeks out of three
months term don't appear to us to
be quite the thing.
Our Legislators, in framing the
law, requiring the schools to be
closed during the Institute, seem to
have thought that the only possible
method ofgotting teachers to attend
the Institutes at all. Our Boone
County Teachers are generally sup
posed to BIO considerably more pro.
gressive than some OF their neigh.
bors, but it is doubtful whether
many of them would quit their
work at homo and go to an Institute
IN another county, at their own OK
pense.

Exchange Milling.
-. IN.
Editor Times /:


Noticing the action of the Millers
Exchange Association which met at
Harrison, Sept. "a, 1883, and hav 4.
ing had about 81 years experience
rs a miller, | must say the millers
have taken a step In the right dire0.
ton, for exchange milling is far
better for both the customer and the
miller. 1t saves the miller the con.
fusion and annoyance of misplaced
sacks in mills and q vast amount OF
grumbling because some one brings
l l 2 bushels of musty wheat and
leaves it in the mill-that IS 10 the
elevator and bolt and takes out the
same amount OF good -four in its
place then the next customer who
has bushel and hall fgood sound
wheat, gets the musty -four that was
left in the bolt, and leaves his good
-four, and the result is that the mil
Ter gets a cursing about it; then
again the -four will stick up in the
bolt so that one man will get very
poor turn out; then tho mill er gets
more abuse and the next man may
get 40 lbs. -four, and he goes off
Dragging about 1t to all his neigh.
bors who rush to the mill expecting
to get 40 lbs. to the bushel the re.
suit is that some get from % to 33
lbs, and others get more. But in
the exchange system of milling
thero IS no such trouble and vexa.
tions; as soon as the farmer gets
his threshing and takes one grlst to
the mill he can tell just how much
flour he has in his crop; and when
he wants to 60 to mill again he
knows just how many bushels of
wheat TO load up to make the amount
OF -four wanted. He goes to mill,
stops at the door, his wheat is
weighed IN, his -four out, and back
homo he goes. He doSs not have
to stay all day at mil TO get a small
grist ground when he is needed ut
home in bis crop. Now | would
ask every body to weigh their erist
before going to mill, then weigh
their -four and bran and sec what
their average yield is. Ny expert
ence is that 35 lbs. Of good -four is q
large yield for the wheat of this
country. Experience has demon.
strated that wheat from the thresh.
or will, on tho average, lose 3 lbs.
to the bushel in going through tho
cleaning machinery at the mill
then tho average evaporation is ID.
to the bushel, 40 # the miller gives
35 lbs. good -four, 10 lbs. bran, 3 lbs.
shorts, and lbs. loss in cleaning,
that would mako 81 lbs. to the bash.
