The Best Mill for the Puvpose.
1t IL . great fact we'll known to sl
intelligent farmers that food for stock
when IL Ia ground, 10 more sconOmi
cal than feeding the whole grain. Tht
process Of digestion seems 70 be greatly
aided by preparing food, that its advan'
tages are not TO be overlooked, and In
these days when economy is more than
ever the road to wealth, no farmer can
afford to ignore any means that prom
ises the greatest return for the smallest
outlay. tr.t |.-.
Experiments have shown that In the
case Of hogs, two-ffths of the grain re.
quired TO make given quantity of meat
can be saved bysgrinding II, and If 1t is
afterward steamed still better results
can be obtained. The value of ground
food has also been clearly demonstrated
In feeding horses and mich COWS, the
first being kept In better condition, and
able TO perform a greater amount Of labor,
while cows viii give q greater yield OF
milk Of better quality.
These facts being clearly demonstrat-
cd by practical experiments, and their
truth admitted by all who have tried
them, the only question remaining IL,
what will give the best results and per
form the work In the most satisfactory
manner?
There are number Of different mills
offered for sale, but probably one Of the
best Ia Raymond's Patent Steel Burr
Corn Mill, which Is made in various
sizes and can be run either by steam or
horse power. The smallest size IL a two.
horse power with endless chain, and
they range from that to the ten horse
power, with sitter attached, for separat-
ing the dirt and bran. The burrs Of
all these machines are adjustable, and
new ones can be put In, in five minutes.
The mill IL not complicated, and the
only part liable TO wear out or get out OF
order, are the burrs and centre shaft.
The two horse power machine will grind
IL bushels of corn per hour, and the ten
horse machine 80 bushels per hour.
These mills do their work we'll, and
have never failed to give satisfaction,
and AZ the cost is low, when compared
with the benefits derived, they should
be found on every farm. They can be
procured In this city at +. II. McWhOr.

No Cases. .

There were no cases for trial before
the Municipal Court this morning, and
the severe policy adapted by Judge
Cummins towards certain parties who
would scarcely let Tues stay night pass
without getting drunk, seems to be hav.
ing effect. John BroOmhead who was
committed yesterday morning fol
twenty.four hours for drunkenness was
discharged, and a case of assault and
battery postponed until Friday night.

A Curious Fact.

A curious fact was noticed in connec-

Two hundred miles away from thescene
of disaster the telephone wires were 80
violently disturbed that messages could
not be carried. On raising 'hs tubes
q perfect roar, as Of a waterfall was
heard. and by shouting ut the top of

heard the voice, but of the whole not
one single sentence was audible. Some

ments, a report like pistol was heard

the White House.

The morning af, or arrived in Wash
ington l was saunteriug around the
neighborhood of the residence Of the
President. Seeing mansion Of slight
y greater pre!ensions than the rest, l
inquired Of a stranger the name of H..
That, sir, said he, lis the White House.
You can walk right in and look around.
There is no one to stop you. 1t Is all
open to the public. Walk right in
sir" Acting on the advice thus given,
l walked right in, looked around, saw
all that was to be seen, and then walked
out again. Tue public rooms in the
White House were as open to everybody
as the reading room of a public library.
There were no horse guards at the gates,
no sentries at the door, no policemen in
the lobbies, no sevants in livery in any
part Of the premises. The only officials
TO he seen were o number Of gentlemen
sitting at desks in some of the rooms.
These gentlemen, who appeared to be
engaged In writing or transcribing pub
lie documents, pursued their avoca-
tions without noticing the visitors who
passed and re-passed them, pnusing in
their labors only when they were ap-
piled to fer information. The impress
sion produced by my first visit to the
White House was that 1t is impossible
to conceive greater degree of freedom
than is her, established In the very resi-.
dence OF the President"

What the Press Says About the Commit
tees.
New i ork sun.

The irony cones ia when Mr.. Hurd is
taken as the representative Of the Demo
Gratis of Ohio. Only three months ago they
carried their state election in a most gallant
and surprising manner. Their chief candi-
date was not only sick and broken down,
but in his appearances before the people up
on the stump, il was evident that his name
and personality added little to the strength
of the party. Yet against all obstacles, and
in the face Of immense discouragements, they
brought the state back into the Democratic
fold. In doing this did they receive any
help from Mr. Hurd? None whatever.
He was too exclusively free trader to take
part in their labo4s. He refused even to
make speech unless he could be permitted
TO denounce the platform upon which they
were making their fight. Accordingly they
went through it without the least aid from
him; and it is to be said in his behalf that
if he had appeare,i in the canvass, he might
have done injury 10 his party; and it is
equally certain that, although be was elected
BY the party he would have been beaten if
he had gone before the people alone upon
his own merits and as the advocate of his
,owR ideas. Well, now that it is all over,
Mr.. Hsrd is chosen to speak and act for
Ohio in this most important and influential
committee CT the House. Can anything
surpass the irony Of such selection and such
preference? 1t is ne, too much to say
shat if under such circumstances State
election were held in Ohio tomorrow. the
Democrats would be beaten by majority Of
ffty thousand Poor, stricken. hapless
Democracy, divine in ideas, most impotent
in conduct, what fatalities beset thee, what
follies are committed in thy name!
