LICENSE TO SELL PRoDUCE.-A letter from
Howard A. lowering, dated Reckord Postotiice
Baltimore county, was received at the mayors
office yesterday, inquiring if person who raises
his own stuff is compelled to take out license
for selling the same in the city of Baltimore
and for delivering such stuff, and also eggs, but
ter, &c, from his wagon. Col. Love Informed
Mr. lowering that a person may sell his own
produce in market without license, but can
not hawk it about the Streets Baltimore SUE
mr. Levering's question does not appear to
have been explicitly answered. What he and
other farmers would like to know is if they re-
quire license to deliver butter and eggs to
regular customers in the city. 1t would be a
great hardship if such license were required, and
if it is it would drive much of our best produce
into other markets.-Ed. AgS.

The Chinese have proverb to the effect
that when a lie is once started it is difficult
| for the truth to overtake it. This seems TO
be the case in regard TO the statement that Mr..
Jefferson Davis, ex-Presdent of the South
ern Contederacy, when captured in 1865 was
disguised in female attire. The story has
frequently been denied in print by Mr.. Davis
friends, but Mr.. Davis himself has heretofore
let the SANDER pass unnoticed A Capt. Is
grigg, however, at recent military reunion in
indianapolis reiterated the story, with embell-
lishments, making himself conspicuous
character in it. Mr.. Davis replies to this in
a letter to the New York Herald, and brands
Lieut. lsgrgg as an unconscionabe and pre-
meditated falsifier. Mr.. Davis, whatever his
faults may have been, was man of unques.
toned bravery, and too much of soldier to
have adopted disguise of that character.

New Theories About Eating.

DR.. R. N. Hodges, once read a paper
before the Boston Society for Medical
Improvement, in which he touched on
this question upon which doctors disa-
gree, and said: at is a common i'm
preston that to take food Immediately
before going to bed and to sleep is I'M
wise. Such suggestion is answered
by reminder that the instinct of ami
mails prompts them to sleep as soon as
they have eaten; and in summer an
after-dinner nap, especially when that
meal is taken at midday, is a luxury
INDUCED in by many. If the ordinary
hour Of the evening meal is six or
seven o'clock, and Of the first morning
meal z or 8 o'clock, an interval Of
elve hours, or more, elapses with
out food, and for persons whose nutri-
ton is at fault this is altogether too
long a period of fasting. That such
an interval without food is permitted
explains many restless night, and
much of the head and backache, and
the languid, half-rested condition on
rising, which is accompanied by no
appetite for breakfast. This meal it
self often dissipates these sensations.
1t is, Therefore, desirable, if not essen
tial, when nutriment is to be crowded,
that the last thing before going to bed
should be the taking Of food. Sleep
lessness is often caused by starvation,
and tumbler of milk, if drunk in the
middle of the night, will often put
people to sleep when hypnotics would
fail of their purpose. Food before ris-
ing is equally important and expedient.
It supplies strength for bathing and
dressing, laborious and wearisome
tasks for the underfed, and is a better
morning 'pick-me-up' than any
stOnic.'"

DnIrr Cows In sNltEerIand.

An American, who has spent soma
time in France. writes; Now that CO.
operative cheese and butter "farmeries >
are the order of the day, wish to
draw attention to the special breed of
cattle in the Canton Of Appenzell.
The COWS are good mixers, small but
well built, admirably adapted for
mountainous regions, and easily cared
for. They are small feeders, and their
milk is as rich as a Jersey, and album
dant as a Kerry or West Highland COW.
They yield from fourteen to twenty
quarts of milk a day, but the average
daily yield for the year is about eight
quarts. The COWS are hired for the
summer pasturage on the slopes of the
Alps, for Is OF 20 francs, and descend
in the autumn, comparatively fat. The
proprietor himself, or a member Of his
family acts as herd, and superintends
the sale of the milk at the central de-
pot, or more generally converts it him
self into cheese. He may have from
twenty to sixty cows. The latter
never exceed six hundred-weight.
They receive the bull when Is months
old, and when they have had six
calves are fattened for the butcher.
Young bulls Of 2 to 3 years old are
selected to serve. Cows intended for
the summer highland pasture are pre-
ferred if they have calved in Febru-
airy. and for lowland grazing if in
November. Calves destined for the
butcher are only allowed to suckle
their mother three or four times. They
are then fed from the pail twice a
day, milk and water at first, then pure
milk mixed with the refuse Of the
cheese factory; but they are finished
off on goats milk. The cows are
MIXED twice a day, and receive salt
every second day. They are daily
curried, and occasionally washed.
When wet, after storm or rain, they
are rubbed with a wisp of straw
this keeps away, it is considered,
rheumatism. The Swiss loves his
cow as an Arab loves his horse; he
employs neither whip, stick, nor dog.
Government is all by the voice. He
addresses them as his dear beast

The Grant Family.

Gen. Grant was a lineal descendant
of Matthew Grant, who emigrated
from Devon, England, to Dorchester,
Mass, in 1880, and removed therefrom
in 1886 to Windsor Connecticut,
where he became town clerk and chief
surveyor. One of the descendants,
Noah Grant, was captain Of a Connec-
ticut military company sent against
Crown Point in 1888, and was killed
in action at the battle of Lake George.
A second Noah Grant, grandfather
Of General Grant, served during the
revolution and afterwards removed to
Westmoreland county, Pa, where
Jesse Root Grant was born. The faml-
ly moved to Ohio in 1899. At that
time schools were almost entirely un-
known in that country, and the only
education Jesse Root Grant obtained
was derived from a few months
schooling when he was about fifteen
years of age His father, although
tolerably well educated himself, took
little interest in instructing his chill
dren, and the family could not well af-
ford to seek abroad for the advantages
which they lacked at home. Young
Grant had a matter of-fact turn of
mind, and seeing that he was destined
to obtain his living by the sweat Of
his brow, he cast about for some re-
munerative employment. He finally
selected the tannery business. In
1920 he removed to Point Pleasant, a
small village % miles from Cincinnati.
Here he became acquainted with his
future wife. This lady, Miss Hannah
Simpson, was born in November, 1898,
in Montgomery county, Pennsylvania,
where she was brought up and educat-
ed. In 1918 she, with her fathers
family, emigrated to Ohio and settled
in Claremont county. In June, 1921,
Mr.. Jesse R. Grant and Miss Simpson
married and settled at Point Pleasant.
On the 9th of April, 1922, their first
child, Hiram Ulysses, was born.-Phil-
adelphiG Ledger.
