The best arrangement for q village

Many Of our villages have grown mp
around green or common. This should
improve in line with the general i'm.

by no means desirable that a village
park be graded down to dead level.
Leave the general grades of nature, il

PleurO-PncumOnia In Ohio.
THE STATE AUTHORITIES POwERLRsS 10
STAMP OUT THE DISEASE.

Mr.. N. L. Bonham, OF the Ohio State
Board Of Agriculture. writes that the
members Of his board, who have been
giving attention to the reports Of pleuro-
pneumonia in some of the herds OF Jer-
sey cattle in the western part Of the
State, have become satisfied Of the ex-
istence of the disease, and fear that ii
has become 80 disseminated that it will
be impossible to stamp 1t out. The first
herd which was reported as affected was
in Miami county. DIR. Solomon made
m investigation Of the disease In this herd,
aud reported to the board that twelve
head had contracted the disease in a
chronic form, and ought to be immedi-
ately killed. Money was at once raised
by contributions to pay the owner for
the cattle, and it was agreed that, after
being slaughtered, the lungs OF these
cattle should be dissected in the presence
of rs many cattle men as could be got
together, III order that they might be
able to detect the disease should it APP
pear in their own herds. DR.. Solomon
was of the opinion that If the diseased
animals in the Miami county herd were
slaughtered and the remainder of the
herd quarantined for three or four
months. the disease might be eradicated.
But before this was done no was called
to Montgomery county, and he has re-
ported to the State Board the discovery
of pleuro-pneumonia in several herds
there. The Board therefore decided
that it would be useless to fight the dis
ease with the limited means at their
command. There is no State veterina-
rian, and no State law that is at all ade-
quate to the emergency. Some Of the
members Of the board have suggested
the converting Of the Legislature imme.
diately, for the purpose Of enacting q
law by which the disease may be eradi-
Gated. Mr.. Bonham says that unless
something positive is done soon, the in.
jury to the cattle interests Of the State
will be irreparable.

Why lie Likes Horses.

Bonner, the Ledger man, when asked
what gave him a taste for fast horses.

ago with constant headache and vertigo
and troubles of various sorts and kinds

road, then known as Harlem lane, he

Col. Harper, who were the only two men
in town who owned notably fast horses.
They easily passed Bonner whenever
they cared to, and he, finding health
and rest in the exercise, determined

one could pass, and the consequence is
