A 1killionairs's 915 Estate.

The mutations Of the tickle goddess
who triies with the destiny Of human
hopes in financial matters was Illus
trated in an application madeto Snrrog-
ate Francis Il. Woods at Albany Friday.
Twenty Yeas ago few names carried
with it IN Albany the representation Of
more wealth than that Of Jeremiah j.
Austin, familiarly known as 1Jere, In
those days when the rivert was literally
covered with spars and white-wingedl
carriers of commerce, and the docks and
piers were thronged with a busy mass,
the leading and enterprising citizen and
boatman was Jere" Austin, the owner
of the chief towing line on the Hudson
and q large owner Of canal boats. AT,
that time he was considered among the
most stable of Albany's financial men,
and had he diedthen it is Thought there.
were not two mel in the city who could
qualify as the executors Of his estate.
Soon after 1870 his reverses began and
he vas swept into financial oblivion.
On the 26th of November, 1878, the
former millionaire died at Fairfield,
Conn, and the application to the sur.
rogate was made for letters of admins
tration on an estate said to- be worth ut
the time of his death SIS.

Grants Home in New York.

Gen. Grant still occupies the four
story brown stone house, with its bay
window front, which is the first east OF
Fifth avenue, on the northside ofSixty-
sixth street. A broad staircase leads to
the costly stained glass doors. II you
ring a colored footman conducts you to
the small reception room to the right of
the exquisitely frescoed corridor. This
room is gem in itself. Aheavy velvet
carpet is on the floor the walls are hung
with the paintings and at the window is
q large bronze vase flied with growing
flowers. Further along the corridor
and turning to the left you pass through
an archway from which rich velvet
hangings depend into the spacious
drawing-room. There the acme Of lux
ury and good taste seems to have been
reached in the bright-tinted carpets and
satin furniture Of odd design. There
also are displayed tha valuable presents
received by the General from the soyer-
eigns of foreign lands during his tour,
around the world, The library, dining
room and the rooms up stairs, though
fitted up in less magnificent style, dis
play the same evidence of wealth and re-
tinement. The General is not o great
connoisseur of paintings, but he has
some which will vie in cost and merit
with those of any other private owner
in the city.

Agricultural Notes.

The Holstein breed is large, black
a%nd-white in color, makes rapid growth,
and produces the best of veal and beef.
Many instances are recorded of a gain
in live weight of three to four pounds
per day.
The American climate is II of the
healthiest in the world for live stock.
There are no virulentd diseases prevalent
here, but a few which are wholly pre-
ventable, bypropersanitary precautions.
Animals are animals. Both q%uadrupeds
and human beings are made of one
blood in this respect, and as we have
learnedt that filth, exposure drunkenness
vice and glnttony produce nearly all the
prevalent diseases among mankind, so
filth, exposure and improper feeding
produce 80 per cent of the losses among
our live stock.
Professor Henry, of the Wisconsin
Experimental Farm, ut Madison, Wis,
holds that it is wise economy on the
part OF the farmer who has agreat straw
stack, and small herd of cattle, and
SClHe Hay, ana WIG VIII not enlarge his
herd, to sell the hay ut 81 or So per ton
and spend the money in buying bran at
$11 and $12. and feed it with the straw,
together with some oil-meal. Good,
bright straw is made equalto hay by the
addition of the protein in the bran and
meal, and the whole is thus made into q
far better quality of manure than usually
comes from the usual way of feeding
the hay and half wasting the straw.

A young calf cannot digest solid food,
and if it cannot be fed upon milk some
substitute for this of a similar character
must be provided. The food at any rate
must be liquid and must be easily d.

cured this may be mixed with q Cruel

perhaps the best material that can be
found, but it must be we'll boiled. light

make a drink of the same temperature
as new milk. OF this from two to three
quarts may be given at a neal twice q
day. Without the whey water in which
bran has been boiled may be used, and
the addition Of a little oatmeal to the
bran would be useful; in this case one
ounce Of sugar should be added to each
meal Of the cruel. If the calf does we'll

change should be made for a month,
when the quantity should be gradually
increased as the calf may require, and
some grass also should be supplied.

Oregon Statesman on Woman Suf-
frage.

Senator Dolph and Congressman
George, Of Oregon, have written letters
indorsing the woman suffrage amend
ment which is to be voted upon by the
people OF that State ut their next gem
eral election. The former says that be-
fore he had thought much or read
much upon the subject, and when his
Judgment was the result Of his precon-
ceived ideas, he was opposed to it; but
he has long since become convinced
that, whether suffrage is q. right OF .
grace, there is no valid a why
m ri not equally entitled to It
with men. THE time has now arrived
in Oregon" he writes, when the cause
does not need argument so much as i
needs action. Few men doubt that
woman suffrage will become q national
lawsbefore the end of the century. 1t
should and will be q matter of gratifca-
ton to the people OF q State to have
had the foresight to take the lead in the
great reform, and I shall be glad If
Oregon's voters make our State the
first to be.fully inst to woman.

An Engishman's Information.

A staff correspondent of London
paper who visited this country not long
ago gives the following information con
corning one of the southwestern states:
"Arkansaw is situated between Mem
phis and San Francisco. It's climate is
mild in winter, but in summer, I am
told by an old inhabitant, is extremely
cold. The governorof this state receives
$500, 900 n year, which he spends main

milk at each milking till the flow dried
down to an amount the food and! vigor
of the COW can subtain.
Wood ashes are one of the most val
liable fertilizers that a farmer can apply
to his soil. For root crops of all kinds,
grasses, clover, etc, they will be found
Just what is needed to stimulate and
feed the crop. The ash is the mineral
element of any vegetable structure, and
therefore, indispensable to its growth.
The farmer who will sell his ashes is
actually parting with somnch of the fer
tility of his farm. As an application
to reclaim marsh land, the effect of ashes
is often wonderful. The burntlands in
the Huron peninsula will have their pro-
ductiveness greatly increased by the
burning of the forests that covered them;
and the farmers there will receive great
benefit in the future from the clearing
of the lands and the depositing of the
ashes from the burned forest upon them.
Michigan Farmer.
Jacob Taylor, of Spireland, gives the
Indiana Farmer his remedy against the
dangerous ailment, milk fever, in young
cows. After losing several COWS he
learned of the remedy, which he says
has not failed of a cure in a single case.
AS Don as the calf is born give the COW
a bucketful of dry bran, in which a ia
b~lespoonful of gunpowder has been
t~horouhgly mixed. He finds this an ex-
cellent thing to give O COW lust before
calving time, also.
The Germantown Telegraph says:
"To grow crops of blackberries, the soil
should be good and especially deep, for
the roots II down wonderfully when
possible for them to do so; and, as the
growing fruit requires it's greatest nour-
ishment in the usually day month of
August, it is an advantage to have deep
soil for the roots to draw a SUPPLY from.
A deep, sandy soil will generally grow
the best crop of berries, while a clay
soil tends to produce rust. Good cul-
tivation; good soil, and a judicious use
OF manure, make stout and vigorous
canes, with a crop of berries increased
in ratio"

their place as the first milk and cheese
breed has not been disputed. Will they
not force the Jerseys from their place
as the first butter breed? It looks as if
the greater flow of milk of the Hol-
stems would more than compensate for
lack of richness. The Holsteins do not
require the delicate attention necessary
for the Jerseys, will eat rough food and
Craze on a hot Summer day when the

means. They come nearer the ''all-pur-

Deacon Marvin's RsvslaHon.
I'm The hartford Conrant

From The Hartford Courant
A story is told in Lyme, Conn, and
it is true, that in the former days Of the
good old town there was an eccentric
Deacon Marvin living there in single
life, who became impressed with the
feeling that he ought to marry Miss
Betsey Lee. q spruce young maiden
whose home was on the outskirts Of tina
down, and who was a devoted member
of the same church US himself. Accord
ingly, mounting his horse n Monday
morning, clad in the garments of the
preceding day, he leisurely proceeded
toward the home Of Betsey, meditating
as he went, on the joys Of matrimony ;
and arriving there, knocked at the door,
when the Young lady responded in per-
son to the call. Though Just emerging
from the wash-room in homespun blue
klrtle and with arms barred to the should
ers, she showed no embarrassment at
the sight of the young deacon, and only
an additional touch of color mounted to
her face. The first salutations being
over, the visitor still sitting on his horse,
proceeded without further delay to state
his business as follows:
Miss Betsy Lee,
The Lord reveals to me
That you my wife should be.
The bare arms We're then slowly lift
ed up, the eyes turned in the same di-
%rection, the open palms displayed, and
the response deliberately given, "Dea-
con Marvin, the Lords viii be done. y
1t was the custom in those good old
days, and a legal requirement., that the
bans Of intended marriage should be
published in the church or some other
public place at least three weeks before
the contamination of the nuptials. In
the meantime it appears that the par
ents OF both the agreeing parties made
objections to the match, but unsuccess-
fully, and the bans were nailed upon
the church door at the end of three
weeks, written IN the deacon's own hand,
he being the town clerk:
NOTICE.
Reynolds Marvin and Betsey Leo
Do Both intend to marry:
And though our dads opposed be,
We can no longer larry.
Many years they lived together hap
PLY, and served we'll their generation.
True to his former characteristics, just
before the ending of life, the deacon
wrote his own epitaph to be inscribed
on his gravestone, and it may now be
read by visitors in the ancient cemetery
at Lyme:
Close behind this stone
There lies alone,
Captain Reynolds Marvin,
Expecting his wife
When ends her life,
And we are both freedfrom sarvin.

can be seen; the d%evastator is quietly

this placed in a ring around each hill
will stop the approach of the worm,
which comes on the surface from hill to

with a lantern at night. The worms
may be killed by batting them with q

Four ways Of Serving strawb.rrie..

STRAWBERRY CHEESE CAKEs.-Take
a quarter of q pint of hulled straw
berries, selecting those which, are OF
good flavor. Put them in a bowl and,
after mashing them thoroughly with
the back of wooden spoon, sweeten
with Tablespoonful of p~ulyerized sugar
(f the berries are very tart more sugar
may be required); then stir into the
mixture two well-beaten eggs. Now
line your patty pans with good pastry
and fill them two-thirds or three
quarters full with the mixture. See
that your oven is hot when yon put
them III, and let them bake for ten
minutes.
STRAWBERRY SALAD-Strawberry salad
is simply a mixture of strawberries and
red and white c~urrants, equal portions
of each, or raspberries and cherries may
be added to it. It is to be eaten with

sugar and cream, but these should
only be put On the fruit at the last mo-
ment.
STRAWBERRY WATER IcE-To one
pound of ripe strawberries add half the
quantity of red c~urrants. Bruise them
we'll, adding a pint of clarified sugar.
Rub through a hair sieve and freeze.

working Horses without Shoes.

Horses in a state of nature never wear
shoes and are never lame. 1t is only
when they are civilized and brought
under the mlsmanagement of c%iviliz-
alton that they suffer from tender and
diseased feet. Tt is quite possible for
horses to be used to go barefooted if
they are trained to it, but it is with
them as it is with men. the soles of the
feet become hardened by the use and
softened by the protection of shoes.
On soils that arc free from stone it is
quite possible to work horses without
shoes and very benefcially; the sole
tlickens; the hoof crust is worn down
naturally; the frog protects by its elias
tic cushion the whole foot and disease is
averted. The common n~avicular dis
ease may be cured by taking off the
shoes and permitting the horse to go
barefoot. first in the field and afterward
on the roads, when these are not too
rough and stony N. Y. Times.
-~-
The Weight OF Cream and Its Product OF
Butter.
The weight and quality Of cream de-
pend upon various circumstances. The
rurer it is the lighter it is and the less
specific gravity it has. Pure cream
cannot be churned very well because it
has not enough liquid in it to separate
the particles of butter. Cream that
contains half OF its weight of butter
weighs precisely two pounds to the
quart, which is a little less than water,
and its specific gravity is about 9S-1OO
of that of water. Cream raised in deep
n is heavier, us it contains only one
fourth of its weight of butter, and its
specific gravity is about 1.01, or l01-
100 of that of water. Pure cream.
which can only be procured by heating
the milk and in the form OF clouted
cream, weighs 29@ ounces to the quart,
and, if beaten up for a few minutes,
makes q soft butter from which no but
termilk or other liquid separates, but
the butter will not keep more than "a
hours. The most butter we have ever
procured from a quantity Of cream was
one pound from one and one-half pints.
This was fron Guernsey cream.-New
