The Hedge Company Dinner.

The Cecil Hedge and Wire Fence
Com. will give a dinner.t tomorrow to
which stockholders, subscribers and
other guests are invited The COM
-pany propose operating on the mu-
tual plan in future, every member
who contracts for hedge becoming a
participating member in the profits
The plan will be fully explained at
the dinner. and we will publish it
more in detail m future issue.
There are over 1900 farms in Cecil
county, enough material out of which
to form an extensive organization of
farmers that might readily turn their
attention to efectlng many import
ant results toward promoting the in
terest of the farming community.
Farmers have been 50 taken in
and swindled by sharpers who have
appeared among them with oily
tongues and plausible schemes. that
they have grown suspicious of every
new thing that is presented to them.
To guard againstthis their best meth
I'd is in association and cooperation
and it looks to US that the hedge
company offers the ' cry best nucleus
for such purpose.
Suppose that only 500 Of the 1900
farmers were represented in such an

That the daughter of millionaire has

pors "a, regularly as the accounts Of the sea
serpent That the daughter Of the best
family has welded worthless fellow is
talked about in every village and town aud
city AS universally as the international Sun
day school lesson That girls like bad boys
best. and that they will fursake father aud
mother disregard the advice Of their tluest
friends and bring desolation to the hearts
of all. rather than ienounce dissolute fell
low, are facts too patent to require proof.
What is the cause of this In well to do
families the girls are spared every effort
and deprived Of every opportunity TO exer-
else their will power, and consequently grow
mp wholly unprepared to exercise judgment
in decision and action. The sentimental,
poetic. delrous period arrives. The emo
tional nature, under the stimulus Of awak-
ening faculties now becomes supreme, and
the girl is wholly under its control. II this
neglect of her intellectual and volitonal
nature is tn cause, then the remedy is cas-
ilv suggested Let her intellect be exercis
ed like that of her brothers. Let her study
mathematics, history, government, science.
FRY To- make her sensible instead of accom-
plished Feed her mind on the strong and
sensible thoughts Of good books, and do not
starve it on the slop of the fashion maya
zines and sensational novels Give her
something to do that will require Judgment,
decision and stability Of purpose. Expose
her to the hardships Of child life rather than

| difference in girls and a boys life until
they are ten years Of age. She ought to be

Cutting fodder is one OF the simplest

value Of food. and for which, on the whole
perhaps the least is claimed. But large
claims are INDUCED in for this process, and
the large manufacture of cutters attestS "a
widespread belief in their Use. The reason
usually INDUCED ia ailirms that the act OF
ma,ticatiun is one expensive of force, and
much cheaper done by machinery than by
the direct division Of food 10y the jaws.
Again, for coarse food it Is assumed that by
cutting. say corn fodder, more is eaten. 1t
is said that when cut and grain is mixed
with it, especially is the coarser section
more thoroughly eaten. ON the other hand.
logic seems to say with some clearnes, that
when the animal chews its food it j, a direct
