If the COW is in milk she will pay
back the same week all you judic-
iOusly borrow to feed her. There
is no prompter or surer payer than
a well-conditioned milkingcow. No
man ever got rich and proudly pub
lished his balance sheet at milking
under-fed cows, while there are hun
dreds and thousands who slowly and
surely get rich at so feeding cows
that they can produce 5000 pounds
of milk each per annum.-P. c. Farm
and Fireside Journal.

Duties and Liabilities of Farm Hands.

"Lex," writer in the New York
"Tribune," says: "When farm
hand hires for a stated time he is
bound to do all necessary work on all
occasions, Sundays and legal holidays
included There is no stated length
of time which constitutes a days
work on a farm. This is established
by custom, and is usually considered
to include feeding the stock and doing
chores before seven in thel morn
ing and after six in the evening, so
that the day may be spent in the field
work. A man who receives pay and
board on holidays, as well as other
days, should do his reasonable work
on those days otherwise it would be
quite as reasonable for his employer
to say. This is holiday, and we
clio not work in the house and no
meals will be prepared for YOU 1t
is better to have all these points set
tied when the man is hired and made
part of the agreement, and so avoid
all chance of dispute. A farm hand
cannot claim extra pay for overwOrk
unless there is a special agreement,
as extra time in harvest or haying or
other emergencies go to offset the loss
of time by bad weather. Neyerthe-
less, an employer can well afford to
be liberal in this respect when work
pushes"

Spring Chickens for Christmas.
Spirit OF the Farm.

Spirit OF the Farm.
1t sounds paradoXical, but the SEN
tence, "Spring Chicken for Christ
mas" has jingle suggestive of silver.
In saying spring chickens, we only
wish to convey size and not age, when
used in this connection. Nice, fat
brOilers, about a fourth or a third
larger than quail, find ready sale at
from Is to 20 cents each through the
months of December and January,
and about Christmas times choice
punches will bring % cents each.
There is more profit in them at these
prices than there is in early spring
broods that are raised for the table.
In July and August eggs are cheap,
and continue so until fowls begin to
mott, selling often as low as s cents
from first hands and rarely over 124,
while the April broods are Matched
from eggs that are generally worth
from 20 to 2j cents per dozen. A
much larger per cent of the August
chickens can be raised than those
taken off in the cold days of early
| spring.

The demand for mutton as an
agreeable and cheap food is steadily
increasing. The markets of New
York alone require more than a
million sheep annually. Farmers,
too, who once used only bacon and
pork, are becoming mutton eaters.
The convenience of a few sheep on
every farm to furnish the family
with good, wholesome food, is now
appreciated more than a few years

The Diaries OF the Greedy Party.

The diaries of the Greedy party, which have,
through permission of the Secretary of War,
just been given to the press disclose sad story
of misery, insurbordination aud selfishness.
Lieut.. Greedy in his diary repeatedly refers to
the guarrels and squabblcs over the food that
occurred between DIR. Pavy, Lieuts. Lock wood
and Kislingbury Privates Bender and Henry.
In one entry he speaks Of an unpleasantness
and accuses Lockwood of some remarks re-
fecting on his (Greely's) fairness. In another
he says: Bender and Henry are grumbling a
good deal lately, and particularly to-day.
Henry In very blasphemous language said we
would all be dead in five weeks" The reports
of thefts n the camp continue. Serg't Israefs
tobacco is found in Private Ellis's chronometer-
box, and DR.. Pavy is accused of stealing the
bacon of Ellison, his sick patient.
The other entries are very similar, nearly
all containing complaints of some one or other
of the party, DR.. Pavy coming in particularly
for blame. Lieut. Greely's diary tells also of
the shooting of Henry substantially as hereto
fore published, and describes the last sad days
at Camp Clay, recording the deaths as they oc-
CURED. His last record was made June q, the
day before the rescue.
Private Henry's diary, which also has been
published, contains charges of theft against
several of the party, and refers to Greedy as a
miserable coward"
The combined diaries show an exceedingly
unhappy state of affairs to have existed during
the isolation of these unfortunate men, and
the terrible story of suffering and death seems
unrelieved by any act Of heroism or unseljsh-

Kendall, member of the City Council, and
another severely wounded boy. The news
created such intense excitement that mass
meeting was called and over 600 citizens re-
sponded. Resolutions of Indignation at the
lawless act of the Chinese were adopted, and a
committee was appointed to notify the Chinese
that they must all leave the city.
Groups of citizens visited each Chinese house
and compelled the occupants to pack up their
effects and then marched them to large
warehouse, where they were imprisoned to
await the departure of the steamer for San
Francisco. second mass meeting, attended
by 1000 persons, was held on the following day.
A standing committee was appointed and en-
powered to prevent any Chinese from locating
in that city in the future.

INDUSTRIAL.

The miners in the Tuscarawas (O) Valley
have refused to accept reduction of l0cents
per ton, and it is probable that strike will
follow. Three thousand men are interested.
The American Electric Railway Company,
of New York, was incorporated Saturday last
with capital of $I,000,000, to build, sell and
maintain locomotive engines, cars, rolling stock
and railway. The trustees are Cyrus w. Field
and eight others.-The Riverside iron works
ut Wheeling, w. Va, Saturday last dispensed
with the services of boilers and heaters. This
throws nearly 100 men out of work. The mill
has lately introduced the steel rail, which does
away with puddling.-Laboring men in Pitts
burg are inclined to believe that times have
commenced TO get better. There is more work
70 do now than there was two months ago,
but wages are from 10 to Is per cent lower.
Ii is stated that there at least third less
idle men in Pittsburg now than there were on
the LIST of January.
