one OF Eli Perkins Yarns.

The other day at dinner Prof. Hen.
~, OF Harvard College, was scanning
a line OF Nlrgl's hexameter to illus
trate the metre to a rich business
friend who had not read the classics.
"Longfellow Evangeline and Virgil s
eplcs, - said the professor, were writ
ten IN the same hexameter. Now the
first line OF Virgil is scanned like this:

Great gunsn' exclaimed the Bust
ness millionaire, "where did you learn
Latin ?"
''At college, sir, p" said the waiter.
When the rich man found out all
the poor negrO's requirements and
and ambition and poverty, he asked
him how much it cost him a year at
Howard University.
1t costs $3.50 year, and I've got

Steam Power for Farm Work,

The successful application OF steam
power to farm work usually done by
horses, would do for agriculture what
the steam engine and locomotive have
done for manufacture and commerce.
When steam can be applied to
plowlng, ditching, narrowing, seed
ing. harvesting, and in hauling loads
IN the fields or in the highways, the
saving will be almost incalculable.
But IN addition to the lessened ex-
pense, there are many other advant-
ages that will be gained. Work will be
done much more expeditiously. A
farm engine should do the work OF
many teams, and with it the farmer
will pillow his land when in prope, on
dition, and harvest his crops at the
most favorable time, without depend
ing on uncertain help.
1t is well understood among inven-
tors that fame and fortune await the
dlscOVerer OF such a machine, and
there are many farm engines on the
market, but they are all practically
useless, except on a hard road bed.
Thegreat weight necessary for boiler
precludes their use in an ordinary field
The steam-plow used extensively on
the large estates of Great Britain, by
which plows are drawn across the
field by engines stationed at each end
OF the furrOw, are too expensive TO
the small farms OF this country, and
what is wanted is not a steam pillow
alone, but a machine that with few
pounds of coal will haul pillow across
a wet field or take load of grain over
a mlry road to market. Such a ma
chine will reduce the cost of operating
farm on which it can be used 80
per cent, and double thevalueo of every
acre of prairie land in America.
These thoughts were suggested by
lately seeing an invention that claims
to have surmOunted the obstacle that
has proved fatal to all former ma
chines-their inability to propel them
selves on any but Lehardest OF roads,
owing to their enormous weight COM
pared with the small resisting surface
of the tire of the wheels. The valuable
feature OF this machine-if it proves a
success in actual works an endless
bridge of planks on which the wheels
run, similar to a tread-apron of a
horse power. The planks are laid up
on the ground, the wheels roll forward
on them, when they are then picked
up behind the wheels, carried over
them, and laid down again in front.
When the links connecting the narrow
planks are straight, the latter present
a rigid surface. and will sink into soft
ground between the wheels as far as
Immediately beneath them, unless the
truss links that hold them in place
give way. 1t is claimed for this en-
CINE that it can be propelled where
horse cannot travel. Whether this in
vention proves a success or not, it
is reasonable to believe that such an
engine as is needed will be forthcoming
before many years.-ChicagO Journal

The Famous Notre Dame

On the Both OF last January, the
Sisters OF the most noted Catholic
ladies seminary in the United States,
the famous NOtrc Dame, at GOyans-
town, near Baltimore, Md, made pub
lie a card, certifying to the beneficial
results attending the use Of Red Star
Cough Cure in that Institution. They
state that they found it etficacious
alike tor relieving coughs, expressions
on the chest and irritation OF the
throat. Officials OF the Boards OF
Health OF Brooklyn, Baltimore and
other cities have likewise publicly pro-
claimed the virtues of this new discov-
cry, which is entirely free from opiates,
poisons and other objections.

Wool Growing in Australia,

The most formidable rival OF the
American wool interest is Australia.
From the report OF the consul at Sid
ney we learn that though the popula-
ton OF all the Australian colonies does
not much exceed 100000, yet the
number OF sheep owned amounts to
100000, which yield an annual
product OF S75 900, 900 with but little
more labor than shearing the flock.
The advantages are said to be the per-
feet adaptation OF the climate to the
health OF hesheep and the production
of a fine wool fiber, the spontaneous
growth of grass and the absence Of
any winter that necessitates stabling
or feeding. The elevated plains of
Texas and New Mexico, if water could
be supplied for the flocks, would
approach nearer these conditions than
any other American territory.

The Origin of"O. Il

In the language OF the ChOctaw In

nounced with strong accent on the
last syllablel IS one of the substitutes
for the copulative verb to be, which is
wanting in Choctaw. Oke, as pro
nOunCed in Choctaw, has exactly the
same sound as the alphabetic pro

Costly Cows Killed Inv Tests

Inc newspaper reports on the death
of the valuable COW, Princess H., be-
longing to Mrs. Shoemaker, stated to
be from lung trouble, brought several
gentlemen breeders and others inter
ested in the valuable live stock of the
state to consult DR.. Ward, the state
veterinarian, as to the nature Of the
disease, as 1t was reported to be
pleurO pneumonia, and that several
other COWS in the herd We're coughing.
Therefore on Saturday afternoon DR..
Ward paid an official visit to the park
to ascertain the true state of affairs.
He found the entire herd, with the ex-
Ceptlon OF two bulls and one COW, out
at pasture, and in apparent good
health. The bulls looked splendid.
The COW in one of the stables was suf-
ferlng from garget and enlarged knee
lOnts-a chronic case. The dairyman,
an intelligent man, gave the doctor
full particulars OF the cows death,
which was from effects of overtaxation
of the system during late butter tests,
or, IN other words, as the doctor puts
1t, from making the COW into an ex-
traordlnary milkingmachine and then
trying to return her to the ordinary
dairy COW. Value H., the other noted
COW rs a butter-making creature, died
three weeks ago from the same cause
or causes. At one time she was owned
Jointly by Messrs. Watts and Seth,
but recently came to beowned by G. W.
Watts, who purchased Mr.. Seth's in
terest in her. DIR. Ward says such
severe tests must at all times under
mine the constitution of the most
robust animals, and the two splendid
creatures We're of that class. He an
ticipated the end, therefore, and is by
no means surprised, except that they

A Bat That Cost SO

From the Baltimore Americana
Lieut.. Farnan, OF the Southern
police district has a picked leather
winged bat. He didn't buy it, but he
says that the bat cost him consid-
cradle sum, and he intends to keep it.
His story is as follows: cone OF my
little boys, who sleeps in a room next
tOmine, called me about - O'Clock
on Friday night and said that some
thing had struck him on the head. |
got up and lit the gas, and | saw a bat
flying around the II ON. | closed the
front shutters, and, taking a bed
spread, | struck at the bat. | didn't
hit him. / struck again several times
and didn' t get him. Then my boy said:
Papa, have yOugot him? Icould have
canght him myself in this time Then
| got mad, and | slung the spread
around at the bat again, but instead
OF hitting him | knocked every orna-
ment off the mantelpiece, and broke
the globes on the chandelier. Then /
was madden than before. and | tried
to fall on the bat as he came near the
floor, and | fell over a chair and broke
that. All the time my wife was say
ing: Tom, open the shutters and let
the bat out, and don't tear the house
down That made mestill worse, and
making desperate plunge. I got the
spread over him and floored him. The
bat squealed, and / was afraid to put
my hand under the spread and take
him out. Finally, | got my wife to
bring me an old buckskin glove, and |
got him out and held him in bucket
OF wateruntil drowned him. Reckon
ing damages, | suppose that bat cost
me about $l2, and | intend to hold
on to 1t until some fool is willing to
take it of my hands at COST

When to Churn.

Let the process be what it mav-pan
or can, cream or milk rOOm-the cream
should be churned before the souring
stage sets in. There is no disputing
the fact that acidity is the incipient
stage of decay, and to get the pure,
true butter flavor the cream must be
aged, but not made sour. Butter flavor
is found in the more delicate OF the
fatty elements, rather in the two ele-
ments that make up the bulk OF the
mass, and to get fine flavor these oils
for such they are-must not be IN
jured by the acid; for these are first to
suffer from the souring OF cream, and
after the butter is made, they are the
first to decOmpOse by age, or, influ-
enced by too much buttermilk, they
take on a rancid flavor. While ri
pened or "aged' cream butter does
not have tnat distinctively pro-
nounced flavor that attaches to sour
cream, there is no denying the fact
that sour cream churns quicker than
sweet. But sour cream makes a tough
butter, and lacking in that delicate
aroma that attaches to butter made
OF cream that is ripe, but not sour;
for it is possible, with some cost and
attention, to make cream ripe, give it
cage" and get into butter, without
the usual acid or sour stage that one
usually finds in cream as it is pro-
nOunced "sOur enough to chuPn."

A Singular Variety of Corn,

Dr. II. H. Kenan handed us an ear OF
Dakota corn, called in that territory
Indian Squaw" corn. The ear is
hardly OF average length, but is well
filled with large, broad grains, OF a
very dark-in fact we may say al
most perfectly black color-and pre-
sents most peculiar appearance ut
terly unlike anything of the kind we
have ever seen before. Cutting into
che grain, the color of its interior sub
stance is of remarkable Wilderness, ow-
ing in part perhaps to thecontrast be-
tween the inner and outside color.
DR.. Kenan got the seed at the New Or
leans Exposition. Whether this vari-
ETY. of corn has any peculiar excellence
we do not know.-MHledgevHle ga. J
