ONE FRANK H. BEERS was until very
recently, letter-carrier in Chicago,
but now he is seeking employment.
When he gets another job, he will pro-
baby not talk himself out OF il as he
did in the case of the last one. While
riding in a street car he was heard to
say that Hendricks ought to have
been dead and in hell years ago." and
that IF anything should happen to
Cleveland he didn't see that the country
would suffer" a gentleman who over
heard The remark reported it to
Superintendent Donovan, who with the
indignant gentleman Immediately went
in search of the young man. They
found Beers delivering mail, and he
tried to apologize for his indecent re.
marks, but was cut short by the super
intendent who Indignantly discharged
him on the spot There are a good
many offensive partisans OF the Beers
stripe, in the government service, to the
shame of the President be it said.

Business"

From the financial and commerce
column of this weeks Louisville
COurier-Journal, we clip the follow
ing pertinent remarks on condition of
trade and outlook for the future:
Agricultural interests have made
more progress during the week than
commercial, and except in very few
contracted areas the flattering cOndi-
tions reported hitherto have been i'm
proved upon. Extensive rains which
have been followed by hot, forcing
weather haveclOsed the drouth which
has been prevalent in some parts of
the Ohio valley, generally beneficial
the staple growing crops Of the North
and South, but in the Northwest and
West wheat has suffered from severe
storms and continuous dampness.
The condition of corn, generally, has
rarely if ever been reported more
favOrably. Southern crops have con-
tinued in the lead in point of eXuber-
ant promise. The grain crops there
have made the home stretch, and
cotton continues to gain from week
to week. The yield, without future
mischances, will be largely in excess
of all previous crops, and some SAN
guine statisticians are counting upon
100000 bales or more, while others
place it at 6,7j0,000. The Texas crop
alone as now situated promises, ac-
cording to local estimates, a yield
about 40 per cent. of the entire South
ern crop of last year, and efforts are
being made to secure large reinforce
ments of labor for picking from other
states, and even from Mexico. There
is considerable relative shortage in
the visible and mill supplies, but if
the present promise Of yield be sus-
tanned by results, the deficiency will
ultimately be converted into a large
relative surplus. The state of trade
and finances are in an incomparably
better condition to profit by exuber-
ant production than in 1884, and large
results will have much more signif-
canoe to the interest of the public, by
reason of the absence of the radically
unsound condition of business and
threatening elements which existed
in 1884. .......

Crop Report.

Crop returns to the department of
agriculture for August /, show an
improvement in corn since the last
report. The average stands four
points lower than the standard of full
condition and indicates yield, with
seasonablemoisture and faVoring tenn
perature hereafter, of 26 to q bushels
per acre. The average for August of
1884 was the same, but fell three
points during the next sixty days fol-
lowing, when the yield was 26 bush
els. In 1879 the average for August
was SO, and ultimate yield asreported
by the census, was % bushels.
In the seven corn surplus States
the averages are: Ohio SO, Indiana
80, Illinois 101, Nebraska 100, Miss
Ouri 90, Kansas so. Correspondents
report drouth in some places and eX-
cess of rain in others, but well-drained
and well-cultivated land has suffered
little from drouth or approximation.
The meteorological conditions have
been generally favorable. The pros
pect has not been exceeded since 1880.
Wheat-The moist and hot weather
following the 18th of July, has caused
some damage to spring wheat in the
Northwest, mainly in Wisconsin and
Minnesota, while generally noticed,
its effects are variOusly reported,
prominent counties returning from
100 down to 50, and in a few cases
down to 60. Most of the great wheat
counties of Minnesota report an aver
age from 70 to 80. Some of less i'm
portance make an average of 100.
The reduction in prOspectial yield is
the greatest in Minnesota, amounting
to 9 per cent. The decline is ) in Wis
consin, 4 in Iowa, l in Dakota. There
is an increase in the other Territories
and in New England. The average
decline is 4 per cent. and indicates a
reduction of 100000 bushels from
the expectation of the LIST of July.
No reports concerning the threshing
of winter wheat except in the South.
The average for oats has declined
from 81 to So, and is four points high
er than in August of last year.
A medium crop of hay is assured
by the average Of 90.
Tobacco makes general average
Of91. .H.r

This is busy, busy month with
hOusekeepers, those who are farmers
wives, for now that the abundant
crop of fruit is about ripe, we should
make a tremendous effort to dry, can,
pickle and preserve all we possibly
can. Liable all your jars and add the
date; arrange them neatly on the
pantry shelves, which should pre-
viOusly be well cleaned and covered
with fresh newspapers, and it will do
YOU very heart good to behold the
good things in store for the cold,
bleak days of winter.
Right now is the proper time to
make sweet pickle pears Of the small
kind known as sugar pear, and this
is the way have them. AS the
pears are peeled drop them in very
weak lime water; take out about half
an hour afterwards, wipe dry, stick
cloves in about every fifth one, and
make syrup of one quart of vinegar
to three pints surgar. Let boil long
enough to skim well, and drop fruit
in while boiling. Let them cook un-
til they look clear. Put in jars and
pour syrup over them. Scald syrup
every third or fourth day for about
three times and pour over pickle.
The last time lay some cloves and
stick cinnamon every few layers of
pears and then pour boiling syrup
over and seal. If they look like fer
menting slice some horseraddish and
put in. ..
This is an excellent way to make
sweet pickle grapes, and there is
nothing daintier to embellish your
table. .. |......
IfyOu have quantity of pears and
do not care to worry over the hot
stove making great deal ofpreserves,
you can dry them, and when you
stem them add about a cup of sugar
and you will have a good substitute
for preserves.
BY all means set all the hens you
can, so that your supply Offall chick
ems will be plentiful.
Now is the time to save corn for
winter use. | have tried this way
successfully. Select nice roasting ears
and scald them, then cut the corn
from the cob just as if you were 60
ing to fry it. Then spread it on a
clean cloth in the sun, In a few days

Take Care of the Fruit.

We clip the following good advice
to fruit growers from the Columbia
Herald. 1t is more applicable to
Warren than to perhaps any other
county in the State. 1t is better to
dry the fruit and sell at low prices
than to let it go to waste. The fruit
that is wasted every year in Warren
county, if properly cared for and
marketed, would bring large reve-
nue. to the county. If any farmer
only dries and sells a few pounds the
aggregate will be large, 1t is little
things that make up the world, more
than large enterprises, and if all the
little things about a farm We're saved
and put in good shape for market
more farmers could have bank ac-
counts than do. The Herald says:
sat the risk of being considered too
importunate we again bring to the
notice of our readers in the county
the importance of drying and saving
the fruit crop. 1.-THE farmer is near
enough to an evaporation he will do
well to sell the fruit on the trees. If
he is too far from marl3 to do this
he should dry all he can. With a
little trouble and system, in few
days he will find he has put large
amount fruit in a marketable form
has prepared it 50 he he can keep it
for future prices, can store it easily
and safely, or can deliver it immed-
lately, The consumption of dried
fruit is immense, and is increasing
every year. This year eur fruit crop

farmer will increase his available as
sets by taking advantage of the OPP
portunity offered. We are so accus-
toned to look upon thestaples, wheat,
corn, oats and cotton, as the neces-
sary crops, that we are likely to over
look and neglect this opportunity
open to us to add to our sources. A
few bushels of dried fruit sold by
everyone in this county, who can
save it with but little trouble, will
amount to an immense sum OF
money"

From private letters from Sparta
we gather the following information:
Andrew Vanwinkle was arrested
on the mountain near Sparta, on
Monday, for killing the mail rider in
White county about two weeks ago.
Nanwinkle acknowledges his guilt,
and is now in the Sparta Jail.
The stores of j. p. England and
Patty q White were entered by bur-
glars and robbed of some clothing.
They effected an entrance through
the back window by removing the
glass. Conductor Harris arrested
a young fellow about II years old
near Rock Island on Wednesday,
who was wearinga suit of the clothes.
He was carried to Sparta and placed
in Jail, and confesses his guilt. He
says his uncle was with him. On
the same night he robbed the stores
he stole a horse from Mr.. John Brus-
ter, of White county, who is a brother
of Mr.. o. F. Bruster, of this county.
The horse and all the stolen goods
have been recovered.
Hudson, who has been iailer at
Sparta for long time, has been re-
moved by the sheriff, and Il man
named Cakes installedas jailer. Hud-
son claims he had $lS5.OO in gold de-
posted in his trunk in the Jail, which,
it seems, has disappeared since his re-
moval, and he has sworn out a war
