Every farmer, or we might add every
reader of newspaper, will find in almost
every paper read something that would be
of service TO him or them to remember.
He will perhaps see suggestions the value
ot which he would like to be governed by
in his future operations, but after rea'ing
Il the paper is thrown dowa, probably
never to be seen again. TO avoid this he
sheuld clip from the p per the article he
wishes TO preserve and remember, and
paste it in scrap book kept for that pur.
pose. Such a book n. the end sf a few
years would he both Interesting and valu-
able.

The Bucyrus Journal gives an account
of a most Outrageous and brutal robbery in
that city, which surPasses that at Hsskins

tered the residence of Mrs. Rosenns Bell, a
widow lady, about midnight, and told her

take her ten year old boys life. They then
knocked her down and left her In an in
sensible condition while they raDsacked
the trunks and drawers about the house
and secured $597 so and made good Their

little son found his mother lying on the
floor, cold and unconscious, when the
alarm was given, the neiglibors and ply

advice which, il adteared 10, would add
great deal to the general happiness Of

newspapers against swindlers and swim

contracts with entire strangers; don't sign
your name to any papers for strangers /;
don't enter into any bargain with them in
the hope that you are going to get some
thing for nothing; don't attempt to take
advantage Of aay one yourself deal hon
! es,ly with all, and patronize your neigh
bors in prefernnce to all ethers.and your
notes won't turn up in bank, or IN court.
to worry you to death, and you will find
lie more enjoyable and your Coincidence
will give you great deal more rest.
