A Detaulting Treasurer.

Lose ISLAND CITY. Nov. 10. III
advertising of property by the city treas
urcr to be sold today for unpaid taxes has
led to the discovery that many persons
whose property was advertised for sale
against them ON the treasurers books.
Most of these receipts, covering : 1000 or
$1,000, were issued during the term of
Treasurer John Il. Morris, who commit
ted suicide four years ago, before the
expiration of his term of Office. The
books in the trcasurer's office show no
record of receipt OF the amounts in gucs'
ton, and it is probable that suit will be
commenced against the bondsmen of the
deceased cx-trcasurer as soon as the
actual amount accounted for has been as
ccrtnincd.

meeting ofthe National Cattle Growers
Association. held at the Sherman house
this afternoon, it was decided by 4 unan-
imous vote. to unite with the National
Cattle and Horse Growers Association OF

QUIET IN CHICAGO.
The Striking Packers Return
to Work.
Serious Charge Against Capt.
De Mestre.
Convention of Veterinarians in
Chicago.


CHICAGO, Nov l5.-All opposition to
Powderly's order directing the striking
packing house employees to return to work
seems to have vanished. This morning
the men assembled at the respective head
quarters indicated in the sheriff 5 order
yesterday and applied for re employment.
The crowd was orderly and perfectly quiet.
The iorcmen of the different houses Sc
lectcd such men as they required at once
and the remainder departed. evidently sat
isfied that they would be taken back as
soon as the houses were in full running
shape The number of old men re en-
ploycd this morning is between 200 and
| 800. Adviccs Just received from the
yards indicate that no difficulty between
the old and new employees is anticipated.
All the strikers taken back are compelled
to sign Il paper by which they agree not to
leave their work without giving their en-
ployers two weeks notice. On the other
hand, the packers agree not to discharge
any of their men without giving them two
weeks notice. To still further bind the
men to the agreement, each one is re-
quired to deposit $50 with Lis employer,
this sun to be taken gradually out of his
wages.
Contrary to expectation, the day at the
stock yards was more quiet than for several
weeks. All told, about 10000 ex%-strlkers
made formal application for work. Not
more than 10 per cent were given imme-
diatc employment. The indications this
evening are decidedly of a peaceful char
acter. No disturbances have been repor-
ted. T~hirty-five imported men at Ar
mour's resigned this afternoon, and were
given an escort of troops to the depot.
The men were hooted on the way, but
there was no demonstration of violence.
Strikers, who have returned to work. have
already begun to make it very unpleasant
for the new men, in Il quiet way. No
overt acts could be charged, but numerous
little things occurred this afternoon calcu-
lated 10 harrow up the feelings, without
furnishing a real prctext for complaint.
If things remain as quiet to morrow, Gen.
EItzsimmOns says he will recommend the
governor that the troops he withdrawn
"Wednesday or Thursday.
At a meeting of the Packers Associa-
ton this afternoon, the question of the
length of time it would be necessary to
keep the deputies and militia at the yards
was discussed. No action was taken
except to decide that it was advis-
time, at least till all houses have filled their
complement of men. The question of
requiring a guaranty or forfeit deposit,
was about the only other subject
brought up. Exacting such a condition
upon re employment was generally APP
proved by those present, but the a%ssocia-
ton as a body did not adopt it formally.
Legal advice ON the matter will be taken.
it being feared that the form Of agree
ment has not been devised that would be
binding in law.

the firm of a. Z. Lombard 4 Sons, one of
the best known shipping firms in this part
of the country, committed suicide this
forenoon while laboring under Il fit of
dependency caused by family troubles.
At about II 30 O'Clock the odor of escap-
ing gas was traced to Lombard's apart
mcnts, the doors of which were locked.
An entrance was effected through the
transom, when it was discovered that the
deceased had entered his bath room, and
taking a rubber drop light tube, had fas-
tened one end over the gas burner, then
putting the other end into his mouth, lay
down and inhaled gas until he was as

How to Make Plants Grow.

Success in house plant culture con-
sists in keeping the soil moist, not wet,
except in the case ofthe calla in seeing
that the leave are kept clean, which
can be easily doneby aweekly shower
ing with a syringe or waterproof with a
fine rose nozzle; in keeping down spi-
ders and the aphis-water, above and
below the leaves, in liberal quantities,
applied with asyringe being the remedy
for the former, and tobacco smoke or
infusion for the latter; and in so
regulating the temperature that
it does not exceed IS deg. or fall be-
low. As deg. Keep between these ex-
tremes, as evenly as possible, if you
would have it suited to your plants.
1t is agood plan to cover them before
sweeping, after that remove the cover
ing, and sprinkle them daily. Keep a
vessel of water on the stove to eyapo-
rate and put moss between the pots,
if you can, to absorb water, which it
will give off in sufficient quantities to
keep the air perceptibly moist about
the plants. Don't: have curtains at
the windows where you keep plants,
unless you can put them aside during
the day time. Attention to these de.
tails, and q careful study of your
plants will soon enable you to grow
them well. The more study you give
the matter, the more intelligently you
can do your h work.-Our Country

To Get Rid of Weeds.

There is but one way to get rid OF
weeds, and that is to destroy them
whenever they are seen. It is not a
hopeless job, and no one should be dis
couraged. just at this time the most
effective method is to prevent weeds
from seeding. Most weeds are killed
better in this way than any other, as
it is easier to prevent an evil than to
cure it afterward. To gather the
weeds before the seeds are ripe, or if
this is neglected to get them before the
seeds are shed and to burn them,
should not be neglected. During the
summer season the cultivator and the
hoe should be kept busy destroying all
the young weeds, and perseverance in
both these methods will soon clear the
ground so that the work will be quite
easy in the future. The key to success
is to keep the weeds from seeding. Ii
this is neglected, it is vain to complain
of failure It. T.

Shrunken Grain.

Boston Cultivator.-A larger pro-
portion than usual of wheat grown
this year has a shrunken berry which
detracts largely from it's Touring value.
This shrivelled grain has a proper
tionally heavier hull, and more OF the
gluten with less starch in it's compost
ton. Much of the extra hard wheat
grown in the Northwest has so shrunk-
EN- a berry that all Eastern farmer
would be ashamed to offer it in the
market. 1t has; however, sold higher
than the softer, starchy wheats, and
is preferred by millers for making the
best new process flour, though it will
not make so many pounds per bushel.
It seems now that most Of our East
ern wheats have q shrunken berry,
which looks very like the Northwest
ern Spring wheats. Let us see whether
millers and other buyers will stand by
their decisions Of two or three years
ago, that these shrunken grains made
the best flour.

Poultry ". Quadrupods.

$3 q contemporary IN an article on
comparative stock.raising says q
1 pound Of poultry flesh is as cheaply
produced as q pound Of pork. This
is simply nonsense, as every practical
man knows. Yet the proposition that
the rearing OF poultry in connection
| with the production of eggs, where it is
carefully carried out, is more profta-
blethan that of other live stock is full
lly borne out by the fact that in Eu-
| rope poultry and eggs are relatively
| cheaper than other meat in compar1-
son with: the United States. The
principal reason is, poultry raising is
most profitablyl developed on small
farms, and the product is SOLD directly.
in many cases, by the producer to the
consumer. In cities it passes through
the hands OF one or, at the most, two
Intermediates. Hence the price Of
poultry to the consumer is little more
than that Of good cuts of beef. Yet
the producer receives nearly double
per pound that of first-class beef on
the hooi. In fact, more than double
the price when both products are first
class.
These questions are worthy of care
full consideration by the owners of
limited acres. Transportation facili-
ties are now so perfect that persons
living considerable distances from COM
mercial circles are comparatively equal
in respect to profits. Poultry require
warm, clean quarters in winter and
plenty OF range in summer. Their
habits are especially active, and hence
their waste is great, but they may live
largely On insects in summer. There
is nothing gained in winter by stinting
them in animal food, and nothing
gained in summer by stinting them in
grain. No successful feeder OF cattle,
sheep, and hogs ever works on the
starvation plan. Why should poultry
| raisers? Early broods should besaved
for early fall and winter laying, and
late broods for laying late in the sea-
SCH, when strictly fresh eggs always
command the best prices.

How to Preserve the Eye sight.

Avoid all sudden changes between
light and darkness.
Never begin to read, write, or sew for
several minutes after coming from
darkness to q bright light.
Never read by twilight or moonlight,
or on dark, cloudy days.
When reading it is best to let the
light fall from above obliquely over the
left shoulder.
Do not use the eyesight by light so
scant that it requires and effort to dis.
criminate.
= The moment you are instinctively
prompted to rub your eyes, that
moment stop using them.
If the eyelids are glued together on
waking up, do not forclble open them,
but apply saliva with the finger. 1t is
the speediest dilutant in the world;
then wash your eyes and face in warm
water.
