PArnolPs Amendment Defeated-Se xton's
Attack on Chamberlain.

PArnolrs Amendment Defeated-Se xton's
Attack on Chamberlain.
LONDON, Aug so O-Parnell's amendment
to the address In reply to the speech from
the throne, which has been under discussion
In the commons for the past week is as fol-
lows:
"We humbly assure your majesty that we
fear that, owing to the heavy fall in the
prices of agricultural produce, the greatest
difficulty will be experienced during the
coming winter by Irish tenant-farmers in
the pay ment of the present rents Many
will be unable to pay, and numerous evic-
tions and the confiscations of the rights
vested in tenants by the land act of 1851
will follow, causing widespread suffering
and endangering the maintenance of social
order. Wsdeprecate any attempt to trans
fer the loss due to inability to pay rent
from the owners of land to the taxpayers
Of Great Britain and Ireland by any extern
sion of state-assisted purchase on the basis
Of rents fixed when prices were higher than
they are now"
A vote was reached upon it Friday and
it was defeated by vote of 304 to IS1.
Previous to the vote Sexton took the op.
portunity to attack Chamberlain, and the
attack was vigorous from the beginning to

Messrs. EditorS.-All things belong

year-old girl, escaped Monday night

.COMMUNICATED.

Messrs. Ed,tors.-Under the soiilng
system, that is keeping our cows In the
stable aud yard where the manure can
be all gathered, good COW will yieid
81 cords of solid manure, and II we
will use mulch or other matter to absorb
her liquid manure there will be total
of Is cords of manure for each COW; II
she is fed on ration OF 20 pounds OF
hay and 151s pounds OF potatoes, OF
other food of equivalent value, her ma
nure will be worth from five to eight
dollars per cord, a sum nearly equal 10
the value of her milk in year. John-
son estimates that a ton Of clover con-
tains potash, phosphoric acid and nitro
gen enough to make it worth $17.o7 FOR
manure. A ton of bran as food for her
contains enough of these three to reach
a value of $52, upon the basis in which
these elements are bought In CONNER
cial fertilizers. Davis estimates ~ tons
of clover as the ration for year, 10
equal $72 in value on the same basis
These are not the mere vagaries OF per-
sons who theorize, but chemistry proves
their truth. This being SO, will ii not
be wise for our farmers to determine AT
once to keep more cows and feed them
we'll, thereby gaining materials to en-
rich their naked hills without paying
so much each year for fertilizers.
Every COW at pasture takes away about
100 pounds of phosphate OF lime yearly
in her milk, bone and calf. This can
he returned without the aid of commer-
cial fertilizers by returning her manure
from clover, bran or other such food,
and by applying lime to the land.
1t Is clear, then, that the cows KEPT
by farmers for creamery do double
duty in benrfiting him. They pay a
good per cent. on the investment by
their cream sold TO the creamery ut the
farmers door for from If to Is cents
per gauge-eqnal to Il pound of butter.
And if he will be careful in saving her
manure he can become independcnC OF
all other fertilizers except lime.
Through her he can constantly increas"
his inrnme and yet have his land richer
and richer every year. Our Northern
friends DO this. Why can't we?

Death of Mrs. Faynan.-An-

other of our aged citizens has been taken
from our midst by the hand of Death.
Mrs. Frances Kieffer Fayman, well
known In this community, died last
Thursday afternoon at the ripe age OF
81 years, months and "a days. Her
death was sudden and unexpected, re-
sultiDg from the prostration incident to
old age. Calmly and peacefully she
passed away TO that rest, "whose wax
ing is supremely blest." She was well
preserved in body and mind, and able
to be about even on her last day. Dur
ing the last ten years OF her earthly life
she was afflicted with blindness, which
she bore with an exemplary patience
and submission.
Mrs. Fayman was native of Frank
lin county, Pa, whence she came upon
her marriage to Mr.. George Fayman,
who resided here, and in after years
carried on an extensive manufacture III
hats. Her husband also took an active
part in the war of 1912 as First Lieuten-
ent of company raised in Jefferson
county, and died at his home in April,
1871. Nine children were born TO them,
only four of whom are now living,
James, who with his family will con-
tinue to occupy the old homestead;
William, who is associate proprietor
with his cousin, Col. Samuel kieffer, OF
the Grand Central Hotel, in New YORK !;
Wells, engaged in commercial life in
Chicago; and Joseph, who is prosper
ing in railroad business in Kansas City.
Of the children who are dead three died
while young. George Henry, it will be
remembered, died in Washington last
June. John died in the Confederate
service, in Gen. JacksOn's Brigade, at
the battle of Winchester. These, to-
gether with nineteen grand children
and fourteen great grand children, sew
eral of whom have died, constitute their
entire progeny. The funeral services
of Mrs. Faym,n were held in the Re
formed Church on Saturday att p. M.
conducted by her pastor, Rev. b. r.
Bausmann assisted by her nephew, Rev.
Jacob Hassler, of FIT. Loudoun, Pa. The
remains were inferred in the Reformed
Cemetery. Always devoted and active
church member, faithful, affectionate
mother, size has died full of years, and
like a shock of corn ripe for the harvest.
Thus another old landmark is taken
away, another of our number gone to
her reward.
