The following Is from the Whitehall

Griswod was born on Apple Creek Prai
rie, Illinois. Jan. 2S. 1913, and died very
, suddenly Wednesday, Nov. %, 1885, at
the home of her sister in New Haven,

ing here Sunday, November 20, accom-
panied by G. W. Barton. The funeral
services were held the next day at !

died Oct. 26, 1862. from disease contract

spent greater portion of the last 20 years
of her life, and was like mother to her
children, who sadly mis- her. The de-
ceased united with the Methodist church
at Jacksonville, H., while attending
school there, and during her stay in New

comforts of others rather than her own.
no matter how badly she was feeling She
gained warm friends wherever she went,
who will ever remember her as being kind
and lovable towards all. Thus closed the
earthly life of pure and noble sister
who has gone to meet the loved ones on
the other shore, where her sufferings are
over, and all is Joy and peace"

The Modern Dinner.

There is good deal in the newspa-
pers nowadays about elaborate dinners,
and from the description printed of the
flowers and the glass, the china and the
upholstery that furnish the banquet
boards it might be Judged that the
feasts of LucullUs and the famous fes-
tivals Of the aneients had no such
splendors rs are in the modern dining
rooms of Philadelphia and Washing
ton.
Social entertainment is a fine art. A
dinner may be made the occasion for
display of the highest refinement. In
the arrangement of the table, the
choice of the menu. and the selection
of wines there IS opportunity TO eXer-
else great taste, intellectual accomplish
ments, and a nice artistic sense When
the aim is to minister solely to the sem
sual appetite and to crafty q barbaric
desire for display, the dinner becomes
only an affair for the upholsterer, the
florist, and the caterer; the long purse
and the most vulgar taste will perhaps
give the biggest and best dinner. Too
many of the modern dinners are sim
ply affairs of this land. The host pays
for them and that is all there is of him
about them; he might rs we'll bestow
upon each guest the cost of his or her
share of it and let them spend it to
their liking.
For instance, bright table talk is
wanting. 1t is being oyor-hadowed by
the other features OF 1.-THE feed. The
conversation runs solely TO the excel
lence of the viands and the age of the
wines. They are not regarded as
simply incidental to the feast of reason
and flow of soul. The costliness of the
affair suppresses every sort Of enthusi-
asm but that of admiration for the
wealth and liberality of CrRSus.
The reaction will only come when
the sumptuousness and elaboration OF
the present fashionable dinners give
way to palmer forms.
A young man sat down to dinner the
other day with a gentleman worth
$1,000, 900. who had been in public life
for half a century, who had counseled
with presidents and dined with kings.
They had beefsteak, boiled potatoes,
milk and pie. The next day he was in
vtcd to dine with solomon Shoddy,
who in his rise from the position of
sculHon to one OF opulence had learned
nothing. There were thirteen courses
and nine kinds of wine, the best that
money could buy.
And vet the little dinner was the best,
even for q guest who knew not dyspep-
STA and had no dread of Indigestion. -

w. A. GRAHAM, of Grant county.
writes TO the Prairie Farmer that he
keeps his hogs in good condition by
feeding sand TO them. He says: an
common with great many other
farmers, / have lost hogs by disease;
perhaps it was the so-called hog
cholera At times my hogs appeared
restlesss, and would root for stones
to chew, or dig into stone walls for
mortar. 1t occurred to me that they
needed something not supplied them.
| thought it might be sand, and gave
them some on trial. They at once
ceased mining for stones aud mortar,
seeming satisfied when they had suf-
ficient food and drink. A few years
ago | had some sixty shotes which
manifested a discomfort and desire
to root for stones. partiLioned off
the end of my bog pen for bin, by
setting up by 4 pieces, and ceiling
on the bin side, beginning nearly
four inches above the floor, piece
2 by was fastened to the floor on
the other side. This left a space of
four inches for sand to work in from
the bin, out of which the hogs could
get it, without wasting. About Dec.
l, put five loads of sand into the
bin, mixing it with twenty pounds
of salt, five pounds copperas, and
five pounds sulphur BY April
following, the hogs had eaten the
five loads of sand, and were all the
timo healthy and contented: Since
then whenever | have attended to
the supply of sand, salt, etc, ! have
never had sick or restless hog, if
we'll fed. | do not know that | used
the ingredients in the mixture in the
proper proportions, but as long as
the hogs are satisfied that is imma-
terial. | believe bushel of SCOT to
the ton of sand would be of much
benefit, but do not think hogs need
ashes"

Some Of the Profits.

The following article is taken from
the Warren Sentinel of last week,
and shows some of the advantages of
a tobacco warehouse in a town.
With the prospect Of tobacco raising
now promised in this county, one or
more buildings will be necessary for
this purpose.
"Mr NJ. j. Friedman, of the Fried
man ~ Co., tobacco warehouse, left
for Chicago Tuesday evening having
closed his business interests here
until the buying Of another crop
next fall. The business here for
the balance of the summer will be
managed by Geo. 5. Wing. As
an item Of benefit TO the town
brought about by the establishment
of the Friedman warehouse here, it
may not be uninteresting to state
that during the past season the Fried
man warehouse has paid ont for la
Dor alone, to men handling the crop
bought, $4,95920. The total crop
bought aggregated about 100000 h.,
for which was paid in round mum
bers about $4,000. In addition to
this the warehouse paid $500 for
lumber used in casing the tobacco,
and an additional $3.50 for. rent of
building, making in all an expense
of about $40, G0920 incurred by the
Friedman warehouse since its estab-
lishment in Warren. OF course all
this money has been paid out in
Warren, and the most of it has al
ready found its way through the
hands Of our business men. How
much might we enlarge on these
figures if we had thirty tobacco
warehouses in Warren instead of
one?"

For the Farmers.

Not for ten years, at least, have
the reports from the wheat growing
sections at this season of the year
been so uniformly discouraging as
they now are. From the winter
wheat states the official reports state
that the warm weather and rains of
the past few weeks, instead of
Frightening the outlook, have simply
developed the damage done by the
very severe winter. Thousands of
acres in the larger winter-wheat
states have been plowed up and
sown to other crops. Then, too,
there is a marked decrease in the
acreage of winter wheat as com
pared with last year. This decrease
and damage done by "winter-killing"
appear to have been general in all
the winter wheat states but Michi.
gan. This state reports slight in
crease in acreage, and no damage
done by either frost or fly.
The official statisticiau of Ohio,
who has received reports from Off
cial sources in twenty of the wheat
growing states, estimates the short
age in this years wheat crop at $780,
22l,0l9 bushels. He adds; Assam
ire the states not heard from to
yield full average crop, we have a
probable shortage of l50,Oo0,000
bushels of wheat as compared with
the five years average (4l2,355, G99)
or Of over 20Q,0O0,00O bushels as
compared with last years full crop
of over 500, 100000. 1t seems now
probable that this years crop is to
be the most disastrous failure for ten
years.
Reports received from various
points in central Illinois, Iowa,
Minnesota, and the interior of this
state, show that the very cooi wealth
er and frost Of the past week have
worked serious damage to the fruit
crop.-SlW3ay Telegraph.
