 John Banvard, the historian, poet and artist, who achieved fame and fortune many years ago by his panora- ma of the Mississippi river. is now lfv- ing in humble circumstances in Water. town. D. T. Mir. Banvard claims the honor of having originated the idea of a canal around Island No. 10, by which the equalization of that rebel stronghold was compelled and the upper Mississippi wrested from the Confederates.

 MT. Chauneey Depew, in his re- cent visit to England, had an hour talk with Gladstone. who said to him: Sixty years ago l read Chief-Justice Marshalfs life of Washington. and I was forced to the conclusion that he was quite the greatest man that ever lived. The sixty years that have passed have not changed that impress sion, and to any EngIishman who seeks my advice in the line of his develop ment and equipment, invariably say: Begin by reading the life of George Washington.

 Allen appealed in yam to their reason, assuring them that they were running each other, and destroying all the hopes of Turley'S Point. Each swore he would slnk Turley's Point to beat his opponent. It was useless for Allen to advocate the interests of the Turleys Point candidates when they were doing all in their power to ruin each other. Every good word he spoke for them was fatty denied. The local hstred which had blighted Turlcy's Point seemed to culminate i'll wild rage on elec- ton day. At ten o'clock in the forenoon It had became dangerous to be out.

cit should be cut when in full
bloom. "A little old is better than too
young; when the bloom isready to fall
off is not too late. Do not cut too
much at once, for If you allow rain
to come on your hay after it is cut, it
will not be worth more than one-haf
for feed, and will be entirely worth
less for market. Heavy dews are not
good either. Rake inter windrows il
cut with moving machine, and let
dry until It begins to let the leaves fall
when handled roughly, then pick itup
and lay it in piles, just one fork full
in pile, to cure. Do not roll it to-
gether or it will not load easily, then
you viii have to pull it to pieces, thus
losing one-half Of the leaves. By fol
lowing my directions You can put each

not waste time nor any Of the leaves.
But right here let me warn you against
condemning it as worthless lot Of
sticks, until you try your horses and
cows, and see them clean up the sticks
before they do the leaves, There are
not many animals that take to it when
dry, without having it in their manger
for 3 few days with other hay; but in
q few days you will see the grass hay
left, while the Lucerne is cleaned up.
A ton of Lucerne will not go quite as
far as ton of timothy. Do not let
hungry cattle get on it while green,
especially when wet, for it will bloat
them, which is apt to result in death.
If You wish to pasture it, first feed
your stock all that they can and will
eat, and then turn them on the green
Lucerne, and no harm will come to
them. It's The best thing to renew
old, worn out land that / ever saw,

else in this country that can stand be-
