72I BUSHELS OATS PER ACRE.
CANAAN, CONN. Nov. 21, 1883

CANAAN, CONN. Nov. 21, 1883.
 Last spring used Bradley's phos. phate on four acres river meadow land for oats, at the rate of two hundred and sixty pounds per acre, and sown with grass seed. The result was a fine crop of oats, that stood up well when ripe. 1 also had good catch of grass, though this land had always troubled me here tofore about catching to grass. The four acres yielded, when threshed, two hun dred and ninety bushels good oats, or seventy-two and one-half bushels to the acre. GEORGE ADAM.

HorsrOrd,s Brend PrepurnI

HOrsfOrd's Brend Preparation is the strongest and best baking pow der made. Its active principle is Hors- ford's acid phosphate in powdered form. As is well known, the phosphate of lime is an essential constituent of all grains, and is an important nutritive principle and indispensable element in the con struction of all the animal tissues. In the process of bolting fine wheat flour, large portion of the phosphates are lost. This baking powder restores them and thus renders biscuit, bread and pastry made with it perfectly heal thy and nutritious. It contains no alum or any harmful ingredient, but is positively the most economical and heal thy baking powder that can be used.

 About two years ago the Vandercook murder was committed at Austerlitz, N. Y. After waiting nearly two years for the York state people to ferret out the matter and to no purpose, Deputy Sheriff E. D. Humphrey, Ct. Barring ton, Mass, commenced about the first of last January, to look after tracks not made in the snow, and Feb. 1st was in possession of letter written by Oscar Beckwith to friends in this country and making such inquiries and requests that able but Humphrey is delayed making his arrest by the York state officials, who hold the papers of indictment, and are very like "the dog in the manager. " Said papers must be had in order to obtain q requisition from the president of the United States, to make this arrest ill another country. Humphrey holds other important papers that will soon be brought to the public's notice, that a few dollars and cents will not be suffi- cient to hush up.
