the farms or fencing in the stock
only take the county of Mecklen-
burg,in North Carolina. This county
has had the Stock Law in force for
many years. According to the re-
ports of the last census, it had 49,
243 acres of land in farms. The
cost of building and repairing the
fences in 1879 was $6,215, an aver
age of 4.3 cents per acre.
If, therefore, the cost of building
and repairing the fences on the
farms where the Stock Law is in
force be 4.3 cents per acre@ then the
cost on the 239, 147, 2O8 Acres would
only be $1O,2s3,329, an annual saw
ing Of % cents on each acre, 1889
to each farm, or an aggregate of
$50 ,043,7 78.
IMPORTS AND EXPORTS OF LUMBER.
The amount of imports and ex-
ports of lumber into. and out of the
United States is greatly underesti-
mated. In 1884 the value of the
imports amounted to $13,741,6S2.
The duty paid on this amount was
$780, $40. In 1885 the value of
the imports was 81, 629,O 62. The
duty paid on the same was. $780,
S4S. This shows a decrease in values
of 81, 49, $40 and a decrease in duty
of $139,962. Included in the list for
1884 were 1,922,674 railroad ties.
The exports of lumber for 1884
amounted to s39,283,985, and in 1885
to $30,263,9 94, a decrease of $9,O19,-
1874 in values.
The foregoing is,a brief statement
of the facts which go to snow how
rapidly the forests of the United
States r disappearing. These
facts are enough to stimulate the
members of this Congress to reso-
lutely take such prompt and deci-
sive action as will result in shielding
our native forests from the senseless
destruction that has been going on
during the past twenty-five years,
which, if not checked, will result in
such notifications of our climate as
will seriously affect the agricultural
producing capabilities of u coun-
try, which is now recognized as the
granary of the world.

"A letter from western Kansas

"A letter from western Kansas
to an exchange shows the sufferings
in that section from the intense
cold to have been more terrible
than was supposed. The immense
crops of 1884 had stimulated a
heavy immigration, and large pro-
portions of the newcomers were
poor, many living in shanties or
turf houses. The writer says that
"no pen al portray. no tongue
describe, the horrors of the past
few weeks" Many persons were
frozen to death, in some cases whole
families, men, women and children.
The schoolhouses and public places
in the towns have been crowded
with people who have left their
farms to get where there is fuel,
which is very scarce, owing to
blockades ON the railroads. The
snow has been four feet deep in
some places. It is believed that
hundreds of lives are lost, and that
a large portion of the cattle are dead,
weakened by starvation and frozen
by the billiards..

EARLY HISTORY OF SEWING
H r MACHINES. =

"A Pittsburg, Pa, correspondent
of the Sewing Machine Times writes
as follows. AS historical facts are
growing more interesting each year
concerning the prime movers of the
great sewing-machine industry, |
wish to give you what | know about
the king Of the sewing-machine bust
ness, l. M. Singer. 1t is said that
Elias Howe never made a machine
that would sew perfectly, but that
Mr.. Singer did. All authorities give
Howe credit for the invention, and
the country blacksmith did well to-
ward that end no doubt but he got
his idea from a defective machine
made by Walter Hunt, of New
York, in 1882. Hunt invented the
paper collar also. He demonstrated
the fact hat a machine could take a
stitch, but he conld go no farther,
and Howe patented the model and
got an offer from a London firm of
corset makers, who gave him two
years in which to perfect his ma
chine and adapt it to their business.
They fitted up a machine shop and
paid him for his time, but it was a
failure and he returned to America
discOnsOlate.
The problem was solved thus:
About forty years ago a man named
Regain owned a Woodworking estab-
lishment on Fifth avenue, this city
(Pittsburg), above Market street.
Among his workmen was |. M.
Singer, who was an expert in max
ing wooden letters for signs. Many
of these old letters are still to be
found in the rubbish of Pittsburg
garrets. Mr. Singer in those days
was "hard up" in the fullest sense
of that term, and was somewhat of
a Bohemian in habits and taste. He
left this city and tramped to New
York, where he obtained work in a
similar establishment, his new IN
ployer being engaged p%erfecting a
machine for saving out wooden let
ters-a sort of scroll saw; at any
rate Mr. Singer helped him to COM
plete it. The inventor went to Mr..
Clark, a noted lawyer or patents,
in order to get his scroll saw patent
ed. He took Mr. Singer along to
better explain to the lawyer the
neutrality-suspicious. and plans OF
the scroll-saw invention.
Whilst. there Mr. Clark spoke in
cidentally of the failure of Elias
Howe to perfect his sewing machine
in London. Singer listened atten-
lively, and it is said asked many
questions concerning the difficulty.
by George exclaimed Singer,
II can make that thing work.
"There is a fortune for you if you
do" said Mr.. Clark.
81 can do it. I have the idea

Potatoes freeze easily, while
apples will endure a temperature
below freezing without injury, If
potatoes and apples be packed to-
gether in a barrel the potatoes will
freeze and decay with a slight fall
of temperature, while the apples will
keep the better for the cold. If
potatoes Ire frozen they are not
much lessened in value for cooking
if they can be kept solidly frozen
until they Are used. If they once
thaw they are spoiled. A hard
frozen potato put in the oven before
it thaws out is not unpalatable.

THE English cooperative socie-
ties have transacted a business dur
ing the past twenty years amount
ing to S1.400, OOO, 900. The profits
were s106. 600, 600. There are 1864
societies, with abont 700, 900 MEM
bers, representing heads of families,
making in all 2,750,000 people. The
sales for the year 1882 were $780,
600, 900; profits SO, 1000, 900 capital,
$43, 600, 600. The increase of CAPT
tai in ten years was $50 per cent.
The cooperative manual which fur
nishes these figures goes into a vast
amount of detail to show the opera
tons of these societies. The move
ment took its present shape in 1864,
when the membership was 1880.
In four years the membership was
$4,000; in seven years, Us, 900. Tie

have depots at Liverpool, Manches-

crackers, boots and shoes, and soaps.
They do much of their own milling,

operations ina manner which shows
that there is ability in the working
classes when it is properly selected
to manage their own affairs.

Death of an Estimable Lady.--Died

Death of an Estimable Lady.--Died
at the residence Of Mrs II. G. Fields, on
Sunday last, Miss Catharine G. Jones, the
last surviving daughter Of the late Judge
John Jones, of Nathan, in the 59th year Of
her age.
The deceased had been in bad health for
several years, but the symptoms gave her
friends ne particular anxiety until the past
three months, since which they gradually
gave evidence of the near approach of death
which she met with perfect composure, resig
nation and in the full possession OF every
mental faculty
Miss Jones was naturally retiring in her
disposition, SO much SO that she seldom ven
tured beyond the shadows of her immediate
home, consequently she made no extended
acquaintance, those, however, with whom
she was thrown were impressed with the
simplicity OF her manner, frankness and
evenness Of disposition.
An admirable trait in her character was
her deep attachment for the home that had
sheltered her in infancy aud through life
She was the last of a once large family 10
leave the domain that had known her for
SO many years and through so many
changes, and IL was only in December last
that she made her home with Mrs. Fields,
whose friendship had been formed on the
old play. grounds of one of our primitive
country schools and lasted TO the close of
life
The remains of the deceased were horne
to st. Mary's Catholic church ON Tuesday
morning last, followed by number OF rela.
tive and friends, and after the ceremonies,
conducted by Father Connolly, were placed
TO rest.
