The Springfield Orpheus society Is bnsily
preparing for its series Of grand concerts to

oratorio of The Messiah" and will be given

sell for $5 each, and entitle the holder to two

to eight tickets OF admission in all. They
also entile the holder 70 admission to all the

Good for Kentucky.

A great Kentucky interest, the leaf
tobacco trade, has recently earned fresh
congratulations. The principal for
eign tobacco monopoly, known as the
Italian Reggie, announces that its re-
quirements the ensuing year will call
for $4,000 hOgsheads of Kentucky t0bac-
co, an amount which is nearly 30 per
cent. greater than that Government has
taken in any recent year. II appears
that the contractor fo- last year did not
succeed in furnishing the quantity of
tobacco required Of the prescribed quail
tiles, and a considerable percentage of
his tenders was rejected, thus bringing
over contingent from last year To be
added To the wants of Italy from the
crop of 1854. The Spanish Govern
ment will take about q 200 hogsheads
of Kentucky tobacco. If 10000 hogs
heads go to England, l5 900 to Germany
and 1900 to France and 10000 to other
quarters, there is an outlet of l0O, 900 to
los, 900 hOgshead of the Kentucky sta
pie from the very generous yield of 1884
The compatibilities will thus be aptly
adjusted between production and dis
tributiOn; but the trade will of course,
recognize that foreign takiDgs will be
regulated in a degree according to
prices The foreign snpnly il mOderafe
but unreasonable prices would redu,e
the purchases of American tobacco, and
cause resort to substitutes produced
in other countries. The relative cheap
ness of Burley tobaccos in the present
year will result in the substit ution of
percentage of that type in
the English and German trade for the
old types of Kentucky tobacco, which
have formerly supplied those markets.

Capt. Suffers Farm in 1S4S.

Captain J. A. Suffer, nj that import
antera in early 1915, S,swung his Malacca
can,pulled his trim military mustache,
gav' crisp orders to his Indian alcalde,
his commander Of the troops, his gem
eral superintendent, his manager of
cattle, and his head farmer paid his
two hundred laborers with pieces of tin
stamped with numbers, representing
days work, and redeemable ut his
storhouses kept open house for every
traveller, explorer, or government
offidal; he was. in a word, the most
vita. sinew and picturesque figure in
all Alta California, besides whose man
lines the plotting, irascible, treacher-
olis, dishonest governors who disgraced
the closing years Of Mexican rule sink
into utter Significance. His title APP
reaed unimpeachable, his possessions
secure under the American flag, his
cOlny enterprise well managed and
certain of success. But the discovery
OF Mke Of gold, lying concealed in
the REQ hillside soil twenty miles away,
set force i'm operation that blighted and
destroyed all his plans. January 18th,
while Unconscious Sutter governed his
little kingdom, the workmen at Coloma,
having finished their ditch, lifted the
water-gae, and the clear mountain
torrent laped, gurgling and fosming,
along its new-cut channel, uncovering
piece Of virgin gold-first recorded
nugget If American California This
precious lump, smaller than the first
joint of child's forefinger, cleaned in
Marshalls mill-race, attracted human
eyes, was tested in locked room by
reused and excited men, and caused
rush thai ended Suffers multifarious
operations, bidding the hides rot in his
tanneries his wheat fall to the earth
ungatheed, his herds wander untended,
and peish at the hands of outlaws.
The farie of this discovery drew to the
spot, with magic power, the population
of the Whole territory so that few
monthslater. but five men were left in
San FrtnciscO; ships swung sailorless
at andhOr, and soldiers deserted their
colors. All Alta California was con-
centrating i'm the mines. Thus the
memorable goldrush began. Soon the
news went abroad TO all the world.
Piles Of California nuggets lay in the
windows of banking houses, gazed at
by Thousands. The fact that in the
new necers unskilled, uneducated, and
pennless men were able to gather
from fifty to five hundred dollars IN
gold-dust, each day they worked, was
calculated to produce a profound i'm
pressDn. Mockers were silenced,
doubters were swept into the current.
Before the close of the year fifty thOus-
anu OF the healthlest and most ener-
getic young men of the nation were
on their way to California. Meanwhile !
the five thousand men who were fairly |
at work in the mines In lS4S dug out
over five million dollars in gold-dust.-

iOnab.e for ball dresses.
Velvets come with spring dress goods
as well as with fall fabrics.
Grape color, a soft purplish red, Is the
newest shade ofthe season.
Gsuze ribbons are used on CHINA
Grape and Bengaline silk dresses.
The Josephine and Recamier bodiees
are worn with lace-trimmed skirts.
Fans, painted by hand ON velvet, are
among the novelties in that depart
ment.
Swiss muslin, embroidered with silk
Is used for draping and fiOuncing shot
silks.
Glass bottles, to be carried i'm the
hand, have reached the formidable
length of half yard.
Lonejeweled pins are worn in the
hair; also fancy comb by those to whom
a high coiffure is becoming.
The gowns for the spring, especially
the light woods for travelling, are made
with a notehed collar like a mans
morning coat, and with II will be worn
a high linen collar and a fiat figure
scarf precisely like mans.
China silks are offered to take the
place of fOufar,is and the checked silks
30 long in favor for summer dresses.
These are softer, finer and more ser
viceable than the French f0ulards.
Light grounds are preferred and the
figures are small.
Ecru cloths, the newly revived reseda
shade of gray green aud pear-colored
cloths, with a little silver or steel braid
on them, are being made for spring
dresses. The cold gray shades Of last
year are abandoned.
Black silk costumes are made in one
of two extremes, they are either com
bined elaborately with brocades or frise
velvets, or made up simply with picked
flounces, apron and full d-apery, pos

most of the fertilization goes to the for
nation OF fruit buds.
Bonedust and wood ashes will supply
all that may be lacking for Strawberries
In any soil, and these can be obtained
In nearly all parts Of the country. OF
all the commercial fertilizer none is
safer to buy than pure ground bone.
IL must, however be decOmposed before
the plants can use il, as they take
upall of their food in solution. For
immediate effect, it Is sometimes adyi-

We are accustomed, in the rapid null
tiplication of all injurious insects, to be-
lieve that they are exempt from dis
eases and only perish as they are de-
stroyed by parasites Ofby man. But
when insects are valuable, as silk
worms, we find them liable 70 distine-
tive diseases. which, unless checked, al
most entirely destroy them. Professor
Forbes, State eentomologist of Illinois,
regards the propagation oft diseases
oil Insects as among the most practical
means OF checking those which are in

cabbage worms by feeding them On
leaves sprinkled with the germs ofdis-
eased silkworms, and believes that this
Is the best method Of preventing their
depredations.
There Is a popular belief that pota-
toes are more exhaustive of fertility
than other crops, especially corn, with
"hich they are most frequently COM
pared. On sells that are deficient i'm
vegetable matter potatoes have the
great disadvantage Of not returning any
straw or other feed to keep up fertility.
As they exhaust the soil of potash they
are injurious to sandy soil, which is
generally deficient in that mineral
but on heavy land potatoes are a better
crop to fit the soil for subsequent seed
ing than any other. Tue greater
amount Of cultivation which this eron
requires In growing and harvesting

Anscdote of General Gordon.

1t is related of the late General Cor
don that at dinner in London Club
one of the members iokingly accused
him of secreting a bottle of wine in his
pocket. Others observing that his
pocket bulged out, made bets that they
could guess the brand and challenged
him to produce the bottle. In Indigna-
tion he drew from his pocket a prayer
book and said: "rhis little book has
been my companion for years, and 1
sincerely trust that you may find a
comforter and supporter in the trials of
life that will prove as true to you as
this has been to me-" Then he with
drew from the company and the next
day received many apologies.

Management OF Sheep.

Sheep management should be mark
ed with regularity. With no othe r
farm animals in the reward so great for
punctuality and care in feeding, or the
punish .nent so severe and certain in
case of neglect. Ewes for breeding,
should be served by the ram from the
middle of October to the fifteenth of
November, if lambs are intended for
the increase of the flock of stock sheep
II for fattening, they should come earli-
or, and will need greater care than
those dropped when the warm days
begin to come. Ewes that are to raise
lambs il. the spring, should be fed hay
and small quantity of grain, each day
during the winter. We have found no
trouble in keeping breeding ewes ia
good, strong condition by such treat
nent, and never have any trouble from
ewes not owning their lambs. During
the lambing period, the flock needs the
best possible attention. Feed good clover
hay and bran, alternating with their
regular feed.Of unground'corn and oats,
mixed in equal quantities. The amount
of feed required will depend upon the
flock, their shelter and previous man
agemenr. a safe quantity is six quarts
twice daily, to forty ewes provided they
have been grained some during the
winter. In flocks devoted to the rails
ing Of fine breeders, it is the custom for
a man to sleep in the barn near the
sheep during the period of lambing, in
order to prevent any lambs from becom-
ing chilled, or to render any attention
which the flock may need during the
night. In any ordinary flock thi.
would not be best, but it serves to Illus
tr%:s the constant watchfulness needed,
