OThe long stretch OF beautiful autumn
weather which was broken by the rain last
week was in itself as remarkable as DIR.
Tanners fOrty-day fast. 1t is believed to
have beaten the fine weather record. The
weather WAS so phenOminally beautiful
that il produced curious effect on naviga-
ton. Numerous members of the vegetable
kingdom got it into their heads Cabbage
heads-joke) that spring had come again.
As cabbages and cherry trees have no way
of becoming aware of the present election
racket and thus learning the true season,
they were badly bunkoed by the warm fall
days and concluded to come out on the
spring ticket. 4. Q. King states that
member of his family found violets in full
bloom the other day and gathered nose
gay of them. For the first time within the
memory of the oldest inhabitant, the straw
berries have borne again this fall. One
woman who attends market regularly, and
who has been selling strawberries the past
two weeks, states that her patches near
Springfield have borne a heavy second crop
this fall, She has sold SIS worth of these
secnod-crop Strawberries this fall. The
price they have sold at is 80 cents per quart
and many persons have purchased them
simply for the curiosity of eating strawber-
ries almost at the lst of November. If the
berries keep on bearing the frult-grOwers
will soon be in condition to supply straw
berry-ice as a natural product.
1t is also stated that lilac bushes have be
gun to bloom again, and some especially
parties have tried to work off
at par the statement that the chickens are
taking on springlike tenderness and that
they have cherry orchard in full bloom.

Springfield enterprise is continually
breaking out in fresh places. A recent
item says:
A Springfield firm has purchased the ap-
pie crop of the Robinson Florence orchard,
west of London. The orchard comprises
one hundred acres of land, and will yield
5000 to 1000 bushels of apples.
Who is the lucky firm, anyway?

It's quite remarkable fact how few
railway accidents happen on the Little
Miami r. K. in this city, considering the
amount of travel on it. 1t is used as a
short cut continually by the residents of the
southwestern part of the city from Fair,
Clark and Pleasant streets in going down
tswn. The travel on the railroad between
these points is as great as on any street in
the city, and yet there has hardly been a
single accident in many years. The pc
destrians formerly walked in the middle Of
the railroad, but so great has their number
became that they have now worn a foot
path on each side of the track.

A cOlored lady Of this city had pain in
her back about three years ago, and it be-
came so severe that she consulted physi-
clan. The latter at once prescribed pOr-
Gus plaster. The plaster was applied, and
so fast did ii adhere that the lady has worn
it ever since, period of nearly three years.
THE stickum gave out at the edges, SAID
she, land trimmed 'em off. The plaster
stuck fust rate and dun took all the pain
outen my back The thoughtful observer
is moved to wonder whether. a
three years embrace Of a porous
plaster would not be worse than the
pain. To such as are disposed to doubt
this story will say that l stand ready to
give the name of the party and the particu-
lnr brand of the pOrus plaster in the form
of a convincing testimonial, on receipt of
the sum of IS cents, from the manufacturer
thereof.

1t is noticeable fact that all the BOhe-

have been manufactured by Bohemian

that all of the lies have been as transparent

Poor Tom Robinson. 1t seems as if he
could never get a fight out of anybody.
Again and again he has been fooled by his
opponent failing to come to time, claiming
a foul or some other excuse. The fact is, l
believe, that the sluggers are afraid of Rob
inson. He is a man of enormous strength,
and though he has not national reputa-
| ton as a pugilist, he has more skill than
many with greater reputation. Robinson
has state fame, which is proven by the
anxiety of the Ohio metropolitan papers to
get reports of the Circleville fight The
Cleveland papers notified member of their
staff in Columbus to take the train for Cir
| cleville and send their papers full accounts
of the fight Their departure was prevent
ed by the announcement that lie Blanche
had not yet put in an appearance.
| When Robinson used to work at manual
labor in this city he always drew double
pay on account of his great strength.
At the Fair grounds, where he is engaged
| in training race horses, they say he handles
the colts like kittens, lifting them around
and laying them on their little beds at
pleasure. He is strong enough to engage
in slugging match with the walking beam
of steamboat, and knock it out. He has
challenged every fighter of note who has
come to Ohio during the past few years.
He has long been willing to meet Sullivan,
but the Boston boy will not fight a colored
pugilist. 1t is believed by some that Sulli-
van may have advised lie Blanche TO back
out of the fight. After the sneaking way
in which lie Blanche acted he deserves to
lose his share of the stakes, but, of course.
the money will have 10 be paid back. Rob
inson is quiet, inOffensive man, and the
last man in the world you would take for a
pugilist. There is not bit of brag OF
buster in him. Springfield sporting men
will readily back him for any amount.

The little signs. and placards formed by
pasting letters made out of wall paper and
figured calico on cardboard are coming into
use in Springfield stores. They are pretty
and convenient, and it is strange that no
one ever thought Of the idea before. The
letters are sold by the dozen. and as they
are covered with mucilage on the back, it
is only necessary to dampen them and gum
them on the cardboard. These calico let
tiers, simple as they seem, are patented,
and are making handsome fortune for

crushing and Cutting Corn Fodder.

that corn fodder is more than
doubled in value by crushing it, J

an inch long rendering it all pal
atable for all kinds Of stock, and
eaten readily without the least
waste. And for me, pound OF
stalks that have been harvested at
the proper time, and well cured, is
equal to a pound of the best hay
THIS may seem to many a little
Oyerdrawn. Before l had learned
it by experience, it would have ap'
peared to me absurd. A vast
amount of stalks are thrown away,
so to speak by being thrown out in
barn yards and fields in the fod-
dering of stock, and in the ma
iority Of cases but very little bene-
fit is secured from the practice.
The leaves and husks are eaten,
and what Fave found to be better,
the stalks, are wholly lost as a
food.

was not done last fall. All OF them
will bear liberal manuring, and
will pay well for it. Prepare the
hotbeds as early as possible. Every
farmer should have one, in which

age and tomato plants. If a few
potatoes are sprouted in the hot
bed they can be transplanted when
others are planting potatoes, and
about two weeks eau be gained in

crs also go so far as to start their
sweet corn, cucumbers and a few
other vegetables which they wish

The Pasture.

| Every farmer knows the impor-
lance Of sunlight, and plenty of it,
with his growing plants. No man
would be foolish enough to attempt
to grow a crop Of wheat, corn or
oats in the woods. Indeed, every
care is taken to always cut down
all the trees that in any measure
tend to shade the fields where these
grains are grown. 1t is agreed
that grass is a patient and long
suffering plant, that will thrive
better than anything that is not
actually a weed, under the most
adverse circumstances; but this is
no excuse for the neglect and abuse
it often meets with. The poorest
and rockiest hillsides are set apart
for it, and even the woods are only
trimmed up a little to let in enough
light and air TO encourage spind-
led and sickly growth. Such grass
makes very poor flesh, and still
poorer milk. The COW that fattens
on it does so at such an expense OF
labor in finding it and in the effort
to assimilate it that her flesh be
comes as hard and stringy as vul-
canized rubber. That she knows
better than to feed upon such stun
is very evident by her constantly
feeding in the open sunshine when
she can, and in such spots the grass
will always be noted as very short
snd making a thick sod. Now take
a hint from this, and clear out all
the brush and spare trees and add
a little manure to the bare spot,
even if you have to buy it. Sow
more seeds on the snow, and pick
up the rocks to give more room for
the grass to grow. Now is good
time to do the tree trimming and
seed sowing, before the rush Of
work begins IN the spring. -Amert
