The Pittsburg Bank Sensation.

PITTsBURG, Penn June 19.-Tbere is
no abatement of interest IN the PennsyI-

sensation of the day was the calling OF
President Riddle, one OF the defendants.
He gave detailed history of his con-
nectIon with the bank, and said when he
became president in 1882 the capital
had been I'M aired to the amount of $780,
900. They had q lot of oil on hand, and a
syndicate was proposed in order to get
the bank in good shape again. He said
the majority OF the directors were con-
suited and all acquiesced and kept them
selves fully advised of the operations OF
the scheme. At one time his health
compelled him to go south. The bank
held then a hundred thousand barrels OF
oil. AS the market was then SLIP he
ordered all the oil sold, but this was not
done and the market dropped TO SO
cents. He said that not dollar of any
of the profits made was given to outsld-
ers, but all went to the bank. He was
the largest stakeholder. and when the
bank failed he had $61 600 of his Own
funds and $4,000 trust funds on deposit
not one cent Of which he got back.

There are but few important events in the

Although frequently urged by friends

never to do so, nor to write anything for
publication. At the age of nearly sixty
two received an injury from fall, which
confined me closely to the house while it
did not apparently affect my general
health. This made study a pleasant pas

business partner developed itself by the

at that moment l was living upon borrowed

an important one for me, for good or evil;

A printer stood at the desk of a
business man the other day and no
ticed him using letter and bill heads
which he had bought of New York
or Buffalo house. Said the printer,
who was a customer: "What would
you think of me if 1 should go to
New York and buy a line of goods
for myself and familyp The mer-
chant replied: 81 would think you
a fool, when 1 know you get the
same goods just as cheap of me and
also a fellow citizen" When the
printer called his attention to i'm
ported letter and bill heads, the
merchant coughed and walked be-
hind the counter to wait on a Gus
toner. And the same merchant,
Just day before, asked the printer

Well, Miss Ella got along fairly
after wheat harvest. Gathered

One day she took tin pail to go
out after berries, and when she
went through the COW pasture the
cows thought there was salt in the
pail and chased her until she was
nigh ready to drop. And she went

FARM EXPERIENCE.

ing an inferior sire.
1t is said that the so called John
son grass in not a perennial plant
in northern states.
Farm animals, especially the
horses, should have a dark, thick
shade, in which in summer they can
escape the heat and the even more
worrying flies. Dark sheds are the
best for this purpose, where a piece
of thick woods is not accessible.
Says the Pennsylvania Farmer
1t is surprising to see what efforts
some farmers make to preserve OBJ
noxious clumps of bushes in fields
and fence corners; they NOW around
them as judiciously as though they
were stacks of rattlesnakes.
Many wheat fields which were
seeded down with grass seed
have large bare places where the
seed did not take. These places
should be sown over again with
timothy and clover and thoroughly
narrowed, SO as to cover the seed.

Put a pinch of sulphur and a
half a teaspoonful of carbolic acid
in a pint of kerosene oil. If your
fowls have scaley legs take them OF
the perch atsnight and anoint the
legs with oil and set them back to
roost. One application will usual
ly suffice to exterminate the para
site nest which makes the trouble.
An exchange states that a good
remedy for lice on hogs is to mix an
ounce of carbolic acid with q pint
of linseed oil, or make an emulsion
of it with soft soap and warm wa
ter, and wash the pigs with it, u.s.
ing scrubbing brush. The pigs
will enjoy it more than you will,
and it will do them good.
A writer in an exchange, advo-
eating the dishOrning of cattle
says: Cutting out the embryo horn
from the calf's skull is not a pain
full operation; not so much so as
docking a lambs tail, and not one
hundredth part so much as castra
ting an animal. Yet we do these
for the sake of convenience and
profit, and why should we not re-
move the horn, which are an in
tolerable nuisance and source of
danger to the owners sof the cattle.

HORSE AND HoRsEMAN


1t is the steady quiet horse that
can do the biggest days work when
the weather is extremely hot.
Half-blood horses may do vel
enough to work, but they never
should be used for breeding pur'
poses.
When a horse refuses to eat be
should be allowed to rest. 1t will
iDjure him to do any laborious task
Treat your horse in such man
ner that they will not be afraid oil
you. A fearful disposition is about
as bad as vicious one.
The kindest men to be found are
often cruel to their horses. They
don't seem to know what amount
of labor horse is able to stand.
Don't fail to take an occasional
stroll in the pasture fields of the
young horses, They should never
be allowed to become wild on ac-
count of infrequent visits.
More injury can be done horse
during a hot, sultry day, than driv-
ers are generally aware of. The re-
suits of overheating are not always
seen at once.
Horses should never be made to
eat mouldy hay, as nothing islworse
in leading to roaring, whistling,
and other dlsarrangements of the
wind If mouldy hay must be fed
it should first be dampened.
If a day or two is spent in break
ing good horse of some bad fault,
and he thus becomes worth twenty,
fifty or a hundred dollars more,
will it not pay well to attend to itf
1t will be a matter of economy.
The farmer who selects breed of
horses, and then sticks to it to the
exclusion of all other breeds, will
find it will pay him in the end.
AIRY farm would become noted for
its horses were nothing but Clydes-
dalcs or Cleveland Bays or any 9th
er strain found upon it. Purity of
blood will tell.

DAIRY DEPARTMENT.

The American Agriculturist says that
there are some things that are impossi-
BILE, and one of these is to make bad
butter good, by any process whatever.
Those farmers who are packing butter
must therefore be exceedingly careful
to avoid every fault that would injure
its quality. They should be aware that
every fault or bad quality will only
grew worse and worse by lapse of time
in the package.
The practice of making butter in
summer, when prices are low, and then
packing it away to use or to sell in
winter when butter is high, is not so
common now, nor so profitable, as it
used to be. Since the introduction of
creamery butter in the markets, packed
butter has not met with so ready favor
with the customers, and, consequently
the business of packing butter away
for winter does not pay as well as for
merly.
The COWS that become fresh in "dog
days" must be given careful attention
and their system kept properly regula-
ted, as there is great danger of milk
fever and other serious complications.
The cows udders should be watched
carefully also, as sometimes in summer
they become overcharged with milk
just before calving, and if not relieved
will cause great suffering, and may
cause the udders to cake and spoil. The
COW should have attention just as care
fully bestowed on her IN summer, es-
pecially in August, as in cold weather.
There is law now in effect in the
state of Missouri making it a INSIDE
meanor for any hotel, inn or boarding
house keeper to set before his guests,
at any meal, any compound resembling
butter, manufactured from cattle fat or
any article Known as oleomargarine,
unless the same shall be clearly and in
delibly marked on the dish or plate
containing it with its true name. This
is a good and fair law and one that
should be in force in every state; and
if it were, we are persuaded that it
would greatly curtail the consumption
of bogus butter and increase the con-
sumption of the pure article.
The Colorado Live Stock Record has
been convinced for some time, so 1t
says, that the public creamery was the
proper institution through which to
convert the crude material to butter in
all neighborhoods where the numbers
of cows kept were sufficient to warrant
the undertaking. The single farmer
cannot we'll prepare to take the care OF
butter and cream in the heated season
as well as can the factory man. And,
then again, the butter made at the
creamery will always command from
five to ten cents per pound more than
the article made IN the ordinary way
upon the farm. This is from the fact
that it is usually put up in better shape
in the creamery-got to the customers
while it is fresher-and as rule is
made more attractive.
