SOUTH CANAAN.

Mr Editor There was a mistake in your items from this place in last weeks paper, in regard to G. R. Wilcox going on Brinton hill. It should read, Free man S1vernail goes to his new purchase on Brinton hill, and is succeeded by a man from Sharon. Mir Wilcox goes to his new home near the camp-ground known as the Sheffield place.
 In looking over your paper I find the topic for conversation ID some places Is large hogs. South Canaan can boast of only one, that belonging to our enter prising neighbor, R. H. Whitford, and was slaughtered by William Merriman, boss butcher. Said hog was large, not in weight nor amount of flesh, but the largest amount of bone for the size of the hog, we have seen since election, and judging from Rufe's talk about the hard times on some of the Blaine men, it is equally as hard on some of the porkers of some of the Cleveland men.

REDUCING EXPENSES.
Judge Woods Makes Alterations in the Allow
ances of Receiver Cox, of the T., c. 4 st. L.

A decree was rendered by Judge Woods, yes
terday, in relation to the affairs of the Toledo,
Cincinnati s. st. Louis railroad, which will
doubtless help to some extent to relieve the
company from its financial difficulties. Com
plant has been made for long time that the
expenses of the road were unnecessarily high.
The matter was referred to Special-master-in-
chancery Cox by Judges Drummond and Baxter
with instructions to fix limit to the rentals
which should be allowed. Exceptions to Cox's
report were fled by the creditors of the road, and
the matter was argued before Judge Woods yes
terday afternoon, resulting in his making re-
adjustment of the rental allowances, as follows:
For locomotives, $l15 per month, instead of $780,
the amount allowed by Cox; for passenger
coaches, $50 per month, instead of $50; for bag
gage and express cars and cabooses, $l8. instead
of $25; for box-cars So instead of $8 for stock
ears. So instead Of $12; for coal cars
$780, instead of 81; for gondolas, $3.50
instead of 81: for fat-cars, So so instead of Sc
A reduction was made in the allowance for
repair of locomotives of about % per cent,
while for other repairs reduction of about 50
per cent was made from the allowance in the
masters report The rent on tho rolling stock,
which has been in use on the road since last
January, will be paid according to the allowances

ORDERED TO SETTLE.
The Stockholders of the Old First National
Instructed to Repay Certain Moneys.

FL. j. Milligan, receiver of the old First Ma
tional Bank. filed petition in the United States
Court yesterday morning, asking for the recov-
cry of about $500, 900 from the stockholders. In
1881 the stockholders in the old bonk divided
$780, 900 among themselves, which was invested
in the stock Of the new First National, leaving
assets enough, as they supposed to pay off
the debts of the old concern. The receiver finds,
however, that the assets are insufficient and,
therefore, asks that the stockholders shall be
compelled to refund the money which they in
vested in the stock of the new bank. An order
to that effects was issued yesterday by Judge
Woods. Although it is required that the entire
amount of the assets of the old bank shall be
turned over to the receiver, there will probably
be only about $4,000 needed to liduidate
the indebtedness. The Indiana Banking
company was the largest stockholder having
drawn out 5000, 900 of the assets. w c. DcPauw
received $40 000 and the remainder was divided
between fifteen or twenty persons The order
of the court, it is claimed will not affect the
present First National Bank.

Asking a reduction In Taxation.

The State Board of Equalization yesterday
heard tae representatives of five railroads, who
desired to show reasons why their tax assess
ments should be reduced. The Grand Rapids
and the Cincinnati, Richmond g. Fort Wayne
roads were represented by William Parry, OF
Richmond. president of the latter. and p.
ORourke, general superintendent of the former.
Judge Williamson, of Ohio, and r. G. Bell, OF
Fort Wayne, appeared in behalf of the New
York, Chicago e. ST. Louis road. They claimed
that the earnings were much smaller than last
year, and they asked for reduction of the as
eeesment, at least, proportionate with tho de-
crease In business The Vandalia system was
represented by j. q. Williams, of Terre Haute.
and he asked that the assessment on the new
branches shoald be reduced, for the reason that
tAe earnings were small Colonel Howe, OF
St. Louis, made plea 10 the same effect in be
half of the Wabash system. The board will
probably not begin the work Of fixing the as
easements for about ten days.

FROST BITES.

How to Guard Against the Pain and Dis
comfort Caused by Freezing the Flesh.
Much of the pain and discomfort that
follow the freezing of any part OF the
body. might be avoided if those who are
exposed to intense cold would recollect
that the accident is not usually discov-
cred before the mischief is done. The
effect of cold is to destroy the SENSIBLE
ity of the exposed parts, and the discov-
cry that part is frozen, is usually
made by another, who sees the change
in color, and the waxen appearance pc
culiar to frozen flesh. The ears being
so thin, and exposed on both sides, are
usually the first to suffer. Bending the
ears against the head, so that they may
derive warmth from the contact, is a
better precautiol in very cold weather,
than ear NUTS. The nose and cheeks
are also liable to suffer, especially if
one is driving. Even when there is no
wind. the motion of the sleigh or other
vehicle produces the same effect.
Whatever part may be frozen, all circu
lation has ceased; the treatment should
be such as will restore this as gradually
as possible. The unfortunate person
ought never to be taken into warm
room. but the frozen part should be
thawed in the cold by the application
Of snow, or in its absence, of ice pow
dered fine. and by bathing with ice-cold
water. After the parts are thawed. and
the circulation restored. they remain
very sensitive to sudden changes Of
temperature. and that painful affliction
known as chilblains follows. For this
great variety of remedies are pro-
,osed Each physician has his favorite
cure and each family its "best
comedy in the world" Among the
popular applications is Kerosene, used
as a liniment. Solutions of sal ammoni-
ac, sulphate Of zinc, and sub-acetate of
lead. are among the remedies in COM
mon use. Ii very severe, take the
advice of physician. -Anaeyican Agrs-

The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1885-01-24

During an excursion from Pittsburgh,
while at Cleveland the Kennard House
was crowded, when a druggist appeared
late at night at the hotel office and de-
manded bed. The clerk replied that
there were only two vacant beds in the
house, one wherein was quartered a
Pittsburgh morning newspaper man
and the other a Pittsburgh evening
newspaper man, who were with the eN-
cursion.
ITO tell the truth, they are both
pretty drunk; so you may take your
choice as to which room you will sleep
in"
The druggist said he would take his
chances with the evening newspaper
man. and he would doubtless be so
drunk that he would lie quiet all night.
He went to bed and was soon sound
asleep. The journalist. however, awak-
ened about II O'Clock, and, thinking II
a long time between drinks, dressed
himself. unconsciously, in the druggist $

FEEDING FOR MILK.
Cows Should Not BE Forced to Exert
Themselves to supply their Needs.

Cows should Not BE Forced to Exert
Themselves to supply their Needs.
Writing from Nebraska correspond
ent asks us how bran compares with
corn meal as food for milk produc-
ton. When weSSanswer that the food
for milk should be the flesh and bone
forming foods, we know that all our
readers will not agree with US. There
are those who believe that corn
meal stands at the head of foods for
this purpose. But we believe to the
contrary. As between the two, bran
and corn meal, bran is the better milk
producer But if they are mixed to-
gether they make an excellent ration.
Two parts, by measure ment, OF bran 10
one part of corn meal, is about the
proper proportion. An Ohio dairyman
always makes it practice to lay in a
supply of bran Immediately after har-
vest. He gets it at that time cheaper,
| for there is less demand for it, and the
| mills usually have large stock on
hand There is no difficulty in keeping
bran, if it is stored in dry place,
and so it may as well be bought at
| other.
If we expect to get milk we must feed
| generously, of course. and at all sea-
sons of the year the COW must be fur
nished with what she needs without the
necessity of making much exertion to
get it. Her exercise must be limited.
| We do not pretend to say that this is
best for the COW, but we are now talk
ing about producing the best milk pos
sible. As we recently said, we have no
doubt that more exercise, and severe
exercise, would be a preventive OF some
of the serious diseases that attack our
COWS But as the object Of keeping a
COW is primarily to get her milk, we
shall continue to force her in that di-
rection. So if that is our intention,
and as the more milk she will give the
better we will be satisfied, we should
study not only to give her all she wants
to eat but to give it to her in such a
way that she will not have to greatly
exercise to obtain it. This advice, how
ever. is particularly summer advice,
when the COW should have good pasture
and water convenient. Western Rural.
