conviction OF Russia hat his ministry is IL
menace of war he will cancel the appoint

tinues the article, already regards the

LONDON, June l6.-At the close of the
conference to-day between the Marquis OF
Salisbury and Lord Randolph Churchill
Lord Randolph proceeded to the Carlton
club. There the members were gathered
to hear the +, salt Of his conference with
the Marquis. Conservatives in general
are disappointed that no progress has
been made since yesterday and the fear il

will DAMAGE the prospects of the Tory
party in the approaching general elections.
Matters just now are at stand still. The
Conservatives appear reluctant to take

Two POnnSyIvnnia Brothers Who Make
Their Acres Pay-R..iSiug Thoroughbred
Sheep and Cattle.
Taylorstown, Washington county, Pa,
Is an hours run by rail from Wheeling,
The quaint little town lies back mile or
more from the station. 1t is but step
over to the hispitable home Of Mr.. L. M,
Crothers; and in these autumn days when
the roads are hard and dry, the early
morning air just crisp enough TO be a
good tonic, it is pleasant to stroll through
this beautiful country. The newly-plowed
fields, the verdant hillsides, the russell
and red Of the rich foliage radiant in de-
cay, delight the eye with landscape
worth journey to see.
On adjoining farms the brothers r. w.
& l.. NJ. Crothers raise Short-horned cat
tie and Black Top Merino and Touchdown
sheep. They do only so much general
farming aa is necessary to keep up their
land. They make 1t pay by breeding the
beat, selecting for sale only the finest an.
imals and employing upon their land the
best methods and implements OF intelle.
gent agricultural industry. As an exam.
pie, Mr.. l.. NJ. Crothers has this season
put In wheat a field which has yielded
him 43t bushels TO the acre. One crop OF
corn had been taken from the land, husk-
cd and the fodder removed and the entire
surface covered with stable manure. It
was now plowed under and another crop
OF corn taken. Then the land was deeply
plowed, thoroughly narrowed and rolled,
and II bushels OF Fultz wheat drilled in
to the acre. The wheat was put in three
inches deep with Hoosier drill, Septem-
Der, %, 1888 and harvested in July, 1884.
The blowing was done with an Oliver
chilled pillow and tho narrowing with an
Acme harrow. This year the some field
presents beautiful appearance, being
again in wheat and apparently as smooth
as billiard table, though it is hillside
field.
Mr.. R. W. Crothers has on his farm a
handsome barn, which farmers have come
from near and from far to see. II was
blu 1t at small cost, considering its size and
capacity, and constructed with view to
saving labor, in which regard 1t is model.
The horse hay.fork is used, OF course, and
this implement does its work rapidly and
cheaply. 1t nay safely be said that there
is nowhere Q more slightly farm-eyery-
thing in order, and nothing misplaced.
For the first time the MeSSrs. Crothers
have this year raised crop Of millet, and
they are well satisfied with the handsome
yield.

You cannot afford to dispose OF your

their lives withimproper, unpalatable food
given to them in a careless, inconsistent
manner.

ing Of mules. 1t is said that mules out oil
well.bred mares are able to endure more
hardships and stand more work than those
produced by cold blooded mares.
ODe good team, II properly handled, will
do more work without injury than half q
dozen teams are required to do on some
farms. Surplus horses are quite frequently
the cause OF the profits being small in
farming.
No better food can be found for horses
in winter than well cured cornfodder, and
every prudent farmer should have good
supply expressly stored away for winter
use. A great deal OF hay can be saved in
this way.
Be gentle, patient and persevering in
training horses, but don't fail to be firm,
A horse with bad disposition and in
clined to be unruly and vicious will soon
find out whether you are capableof handl'
ing him or not.
Some OF the best producing stations in
the country are required 10 do as much
hard work out Of the regular season as
any other horse on the farm. II the work
is not Of too heavy nature they are I'M
doubtedly better by having plenty to do,
rather than being kept in the condition oil

tits very important to Ohio and to the
country that John Sherman shall be re-
elected to the United States Senate. 1t is
Of much more Importance TO Ohio and to
the country that elections shall be fairly
held and results honestly returned.
II the Democrats had carried Ohio
every homes. citizen would desire them to
be placed in full possession Of the fruits OF
their victory. II they had carried the
Legislature it is fair presumption that
they would not have resorted to a post
election scheme to count out Republicans
and smuggIe in Democrats defeated at
the polls.
The work now going on is bold at
tempt to defeat the will OF the people.
The dodge Of informality in the returns is
not new. 1t has been worked in Southern
States on large and highly successful
scale. In Mississippi it has taken the
place Of the shotgun, whose fiery
eloquence and convincing logic had
made decisive change in public
opinion and placed heavily Re-
publican State in the Democratic col
umn. 1t has been the practice in that
land OF exuberant Democratic msiorities
for the Democratic County Returning
Boards to do something contrary to law
or omit to do something required by law
in order to supply Themselves with a pre-
text to throw out whole poll where the
majority was largely Republican.
This and kindred schemes are now be-
ing resorted to in Ohio to make Johnny
Mclean United States Senator. The
Republican State Committee gives the as
suranca that the Legislature is safe beyond
the power Of the opposition to steal it. 1t
is to be hoped that this is true, not only
because it desirable from patty point
Of view, butbecause no State cannot afford
to be dendown byits ballot boxjugglers
and thecountry cannot afford to have seats

Treatment OF Doms.tio "n'rn"i'.

Intelligent owners Of domestic animals
are coming more and more to understand
the value Of the intelligent treatment OF
this class Of property. YetitiS one OF the
unaccouplable things that the loss every
year is still enormous by reason OF the
laundering treatment Of diseased or iDjur-
ed animals. The owner OF fine horse or
COW, finding his animal sick, and having
little II any knowledge Gifts ailment, fills
It with powders or drenches it with "hoTse
medicine" which he knows nothing about,
and is surprised TO tind dead animal on
his hands. Others there are who know
that the right thing is to seek professional
advice, bu. this they put of until the pa
tent ia beyond saving by human skill.
1t is not in every case possible to have
at hand skilled veterinarian. But it
may be easy enough, II the matter be
taken in hand in time, to consult through
the mail practitioner whose advice, based
on clear statement OF the case will be
infinitely better than nothing.
The ISrELLIGEScER begins to-day the
publication oil veterinary department
conducted by an educated veterinarian in
successEul practice. It will be tf5G MIN to
make this department above all things
practical and therefore very helpful to
those readers of the ISTELLIGENcER who
keep domestic animals. Our friends are
invited to make use Of this facility with
out cost; to use it as often as they desire in
formation or have inform ttion to impart.
Reports Of results will be particularly ac-
ceptsble. By freely responding to the in
vita!ion oar fricn Is can make this depart

symptoms OF collie, one Of the most fatal
diseases to horse, are readily detected.

rolls, remaining for a time on his back,
and breathes heavily throughout. At re:

Weaulng Colts.



WEAVING colts requires more care and
attention than many imsgine. OF course
it can be done with but little trouble or
expense, but carelessness in this period in
the life Of colt Is often more expensive
than is imagined. II possible the dam
should be removed TO such a distance that
It would be impossible for her to hear tho
colt or the colt TO hear her. This will
save great deal OF fretttDg and worrying
on the part OF both. Both the dam and
offspring require careful feeding for at
least a month after separation. The food
Of the mare should be Of such a nature
that it will lessen rather than strengthen
the flow Of milk, while the food for the
colt should be just the opposite. The
young things should be allowed plenty Of
room for exercise, and not be penned' up
in the stable as Is often the SO. There
ale many things to be taken into consid'
Grafton at this important time OF its exist
ence, and the man who is careless in re-
gard to its welfare will pay well for his
