The sheep business has been rushing
the past few days, and farmers seem
to be feeling better than they did over
the prospect.
A. A. Pond has just bought the Frank
Wooster cattle, the trade amounting to
about $500. A finer lot of young fat
cattle cannot be found on many farms in

Allan Calhoun of Middlebury has just
set up two new Stewart stoves in the
Congregational church; and it is now
believed that there will be no trou-

Little Mabel Bissettei is quite sick. She
is another victim of the prevalent whoop-

whose children are afflicted with this
disease would keep them at home there
would be fewer suffering from it.
A "one-horse' sheet comes from some
benighted locality down in Indiana called
the Goodland Herald. 1t came. if one
may Judge from the hierOglyphics upon
the wrapper, directly from the sanctum
of its editor. 1t contained that brilliant
editorial with regaI d to the threshing of
that 2000 bushels of grain of which men
tion was incidentally made short time
since If it was of the least consequence,
il might be said that while the time spent
by the thresher upon the farm in ques-
tion was nearly three weeks, as stated,
operations were delayed by incessant
rains and,a lOng-continued flood upon the
river, where large portion of the eight
| Ill, .
threshed was located. Perhaps it was
fortunate for our HoOsier friend that the
working time re uired was not stated and
that by slight inadyertance he was led
to suppose that Vermont farmer re-
quired three weeks to thresh 2OO0 bush
els of grain. 1t gave him fanccd OPP
portunity to magnify the glories of the
mighty West" without which. as in the
case of Mark Twain's tramp, serious re-
suits might have followed, had he been
compelled to bottle it up. 1t may be
cruel to disabuse him with regard to the
facts, on the principle that it is always
cruel to throw sticks at bantam rooster
or at a"ThomaS" turkey when in the full
ecstatic enjoyment of his characteristic
strut. His gratuitous inslnuations OF
verdancy in Vermonters in view of the
educational standing of his own State, is
too good IA joke to be lost. 1t reminds on'
of the reply of Daniel Webster to /
Southern friend at time when thousands
of the graduates of Northern schools anC
colleges were annually going South a.
teachers. While walking on the street,
of Washington drove of darkies passeC
on their way to the sugar plantations o
the South. "See Daniel" said the South
erner loosely, "there goes a drove o
your constituents" "l les' said Webster
school," But that sort of product il
not Vermont staple, and, if so, Good
land would doubtless be poor market
as the supply is evidently not exhausted

The closing up of the great strike on the
Gould system of railroads has practically
demonstrated the folly of such a state of
affairs, and the untold amount of damage
done the commercial interests of the coun-
try. Ten days suspension OF business on the
two Paciiics, seems to be but small affair,
yet when we think Of its immense trains
running daily across our great state, far in
to the heart of Mexico, few days suspen-
sion causes serious delays attended with
heavy losses in business circles. If the
railroad men and their employees were all
the persons TO suffer, it would not matter,
but every branch of industry has TO suffer
