A Rich Farmer.

Mr.. Nicholas Anchorina, of Buenos
Ayres, who died in May last, accord
ing to an English paper, was probably
the richest farmer in the world. His
executors report his rural estates as fol-
lows: Land, LILO square miles
cows, 152. 900; sheep, 100000. He
also owned much house property in
BuenOs Ayres, and his assets have
been valued at 92,4O0,OOO sterling.
He inherited 100000 from his father
thirty years ago.

When to Cut Corn.

Cor. Prairie Farmer.
A lesson which was forced upon me
in my early days has since proved to
be of much practical value. My faith
er was an "old.fashioned" farmer, who
always made a good crop of corn by
dint of thorough work. He waited
until the inner husks were dead and
the kernels hard, before he began to
cut up the corn. But one autumn, at.
ter a frosty spring and cold summer,
there was a threatening suggestion Of
frost while the corn was yet in the
milk +; so we went to cutting it as soor
as it began to glaze on the kernels.
completing the job just in time to es
cape a killing white frost. When
we came to husk the corn we found
somewhat to our surprise, uncommonly
plump, heavy ears. We never raised
better crop, and the fodder was swee
and palatable all through. From tha
time forward, year by year, We Away
began cutting the corn as soon as i
glazed, and 1 pursue the same practic'
in farming for myself.

occupy them after us.

NSOhHJ 1hClu olJCl U.S.
There is certainly no finer country
for stock raising than this. Our cli>
mate is unsurpassed by any. Our lands
are sufficiently broken and undulating
to be self-draining, and it is remarka-
bic fact that the sides and tops of all
our hills in their natural state, as we'll
as the valleys, are covered with deep,
rich soil, that is well adapted to the
growing of all kinds of grass and grain,
that are necessary to successfully raise
and fatten all kinds of valuable stock.
And it is the finest watered region that
I have seen. There is scarcely any
use for ponds or pumps on any farm,
for at the base of most of our hills is to
be found bold springs gushing forth
their pure, lympid waters, that make
branches and creeks, that course their
way on through the valleys to our two
beautiful rivers, making a bountiful
supply of fresh running water for
thousands of stock more than we have.
But to improve the breed of all our
different kinds of stock is another im>
portant item, and should receive our
early and careful consideration.
We are far behind many of the
counties in our State in this respect
counties, too, that are not as well suited
in every particular for this purpose as
our own.
The truth is, the time has now come
when the scrub and scalawag must 60.
They have been thoroughly tested and
found wanting in many respects, and
we can no longer afford to have them
here eating up the substance of the
land. They must give way to their
superiors. Like the wooden mould
board plow, which has long since been
laid aside as unfit for use, when COM
pared with the implement with modern
Improvements, so the inferior stock
must be driven out, and the high
grades and thoroughbreds, which grow
larger, mature earlier, fatten at any
age, and sell at prices far superior,
must take their places.
Thousands of dollars are lost annual
ly to our county by this great neglect.
The truth is, we do not study our occu.
patton as we should, in order to make
a success of it. Then, will we arouse
up to sense of our duty and interest,
and each one try to set an example in
farming worthy of the limitation Of
his neighbors and children.
f | feel satisfied that the man, or sci
of men, who can persuade our farmers
7 to SOW down all their hillside land il
r grass, and make small grain, hay, and
improved stock farming their chief de-
pendence for support, will prove
s themselves benefactors indeed.
: Then will the music Of lowing herds
and bleating aocks, and the handsome
profits of this easy mode of living, in
9 duce most of our industrious young
! men to remain at home and make
farming their occupation, which is the
0 most certain and independent way O.
o making living of all pursuits.

Brutal Murder of a Chi1d

= OURAY, COL, January 1.-THE town is
greatly excited over the brutal murder of
little Mary Matthews by her foster parents,
Mike Cuddike and wife, and the wife's
brother, John Carroll, living ten miles
from Ouray. Little Mary, who was recently
adopted from the Denver Catholic Orphans
Home, died suddenly Saturday morning,
and was almost Immediately buried by the
Cuddikes. This fact, together with the
knowledge that the girl was victim of the
most cruel treatment, aroused the suspic-
ions of the neighbors, who notified the
coroner. The coroner exhumed the body,
when the evidence of her terrible death was
revealed. Her skull was fractured, her
limbs were cut in several places, one leg
was broken, and her feet and hands were
frozen solid. The Cnddikes, while prepar-
ing to leave the country, were arrested and
are in jail. Talk of lynching is freely in

sufficient power to turn the machinery and
orders were given to shut down. About
fifteen minutes later the disconnected
boiler burst with a detonation heard for
miles. When the debris was
cleared away four bodies were
discovered. The killed are John

A Mysterious Murder.

PITTsBuRG, January 17.-This morning
at 1880 the body of Professor Peter Voltz,
a prominent citizen of Allegheny, was
found on the Tenth street Railroad Bridge,
with a bullet hole through his right temple.
His coat and vest were open, his pockets
rihed, and his watch was gone. About
four feet from his body was thirty cents in
change and tuning fork. There was no
evidence of struggle, and suicide was at
first suggested, but as no weapon was
found near the remains, it is believed that
foul murder has been committed. Voltz
leaves wife and several children grown
up. There is no trace of the murderers.
The bridge is dark and a favorite resort of
thieves

lived in Dominick street, was stabbed in
the hip and groin this afternoon in the hall
way of s4S Hudson street by James Hardy,
who resided there. Altman died almost
instantly from internal hemorrhage.
The men were slightly ac-

angry words were passed. Then there
was a scufie and Altman fell. Hardy
ran to the street and surrendered to the
police. He handed over the bloody knife.
Hardy says Altman prevented him from
