An EpizootIc Among the BOvincs.
The following communication, from q
leading veterinarian of the city, has just
been received at The BEE office, aud ex-
plains itself
San epizootic Of contagious inflammation
of the eyes in cattle prevails to an alarming
extent among the hundreds of cows owned
By our citizens and pastured in the vacant
land in the south part of the city. This dis
ease is rapidly conveyed from one 20 another
when associated together in punches, and II
will not be long before all the cows in the
city will be blind in one or both eyes, greatly
TO the loss TO owners in quantity and quality
of milk produced. Animals recover from
this disease very slowly unless prop.
erly treated in tho early stages.
1t is evidently the duty of the city fathers,
either us board of aldermen or board OF
health, to stop the spread of this disease by
quarantine regulations, it being as readily
controlled as scarlet fever by the quarantine
method II is highly important that the
milk supply of the city be kept in the most
wholesome condition possible, as COW with
iniiamed eyes connot give wholesome milk,
and bad quality of milk means sick chill

Senator Evarts' Log Cabin.


Senator Evarts has erected an old fash
toned Log Cabin on an elevated point of
land which hs lately purchased en- the
Potomac, lust below Washington.
1t is much more elegant in its finish and
appointments than were the homes of our
ancestors in the Log Cabin days OF long
ago, but probably not more conducive to
comfort
Outside, it presents the appearance OF the
| typical old fashioned house of the pioneers,
being built of logs hewn in the adjacent
| forest and raised and chinked i'll the olden
style. The interior will be finished in na-
tive woods, from the place, but, unlike the
primitive original, it will be finished in oil
| This is luxury to which the jewellers in
the rude Cabins of early days dared not as
| pirc, it being pure luxury, and not adding to
the comfort Of the domicile.
Senator Evarts began the Log Cabin last
summer with the determination that, If
Gen. Harrison were elected, he would re-
verse the popular campaign axiom of half
O century ago, From the Log Cabin to the
White House." to social sxiom of the new
administration, Prom the White House to
the Log Cabin"
Harrison was successful; Senator Evarte'
new, old-fashioned, Log Cabin will doubt.
less also prove a great success. Many o
happy days sUrcease from the tolls and
cares of his great station, our Log Cabin
president will no doubt enjoy beneath its
hospitable roof as the guest of the genial,

SORGHUM CULTURE.
Get the Soil in Good Condition Before Sow
ing the Seed.

ing the Seed.
Under the present conditions nearly
every farmer can raise his molasses
and sorghum at a less cost, consider
ing the quality. One of the principal
advantages in growing sorghum is that
the molasses is OF a known quality, and
a small acreage will generally be suffi-
cient to supply the ordinary needs of
the family, and without investing any
cane can be worked up into molasses
for u share of the product. Cane is
naturally tropical plant and requires
a warm soil if good growth is Sc
cured. 1t is also plant that makes a
very slow growth at first and is easily
stunted when the soil is wet and cold.
In addition. not only is the growth and
yield affected by the weeds, but the
work Of harvesting is materially in
creased as they are allowed to grow.
As the plants are small and tender and
make slow growth, it is an item to
select clean land and then to prepare
in a good filth before sowing the seed.
AS it is not best to sow until the soil is
sufficiently warmed to induce rapid
germination of the seed, very good
plan is to clean up thoroughly and
pillow the soil and then little work
will be required with the harrow TO
get it into n proper filth for sowing.
As only u slight covering is needed
for the seed, the burrows should be
marked as shallow as possible and care
be taken to sow the seed evenly. A
quicker termination will be secured if
the seed is placed in an open vessel
and warm water is poured over suf-
iicient to cover, and let stand about
twenty-four hours. Cover lightly.
Where considerable acreage is sown
it will be profitable to use a sced-drill,
as the work can be done much more
evenly than by hand. Sow in drills
rather than in hills. On land that is
fit to grow this crop the larger yield
secured will make the work necessary
to keep clean profitable. 1t is impor-
tant with this crop that care be taken
to keep down the weeds and make the
soil fine and mellow during the early
stages of growth. Once a good start
to grow is made it will grow very
rapidly, but much depends upon the
thoroughness of the earlier cultivation.
With the soil we'll prepared the har-
row can be used at first to destroy the
weeds and keep in good filth, after
which the cultivator can be used. And
f this is done the work can be made
much easier, and in proportion as this
IS done the better will be the growth
md yield. Cor. St. Louis Republic.

STAN1EY'S MACHINE GUN.
1t Should Have belonged to Americi
But Does Belong to England.

1t Should Have belonged to America,
But Does Belong to England.
The prints OF the English-speaking
world have been full of stories about
the machine gun which Henry NJ.
Stanley carried with him in his last
desperate venture in Africa. And yet
it is an old story. 1t occHrs to this
paper to properly tell it:
The weapon so much talked
about is a Maxim gun. 1t was in
vented by citizen of these United
States. He was poor and sought en-
enlargement from our Government.
He got none. He went to England,
where they saw its merits at once and
made him rich. So his gun is under
control of the British government.
At the time when he commenced his
investigations the three great machine
guns of the world were the Calling,
the Hotchkiss and the Nordenhoff-the
first two American, the last English.
There was little difference in their
merits, save that the Hotchkiss was
lighter and made for ready transport
alton.
Maxim. an American boy, said to
, himself: There are faults about these
machine guns.
/. The turning of the crank pre-
vents any thing like an aim. =. Often
the cartridge hangs fire little, but the
crank turns on and they explode at the
wrong time. 3. Most of all. the rapid
firing heats the gun so that it is use
less and even dangerous in few
seconds.
The Maxim gun overcame all these
defects. 1t is automatic, 1t needs no
crank. Pull the trigger once and it
continues to load and fire itself so long
rs the supply of cartridges last. The
power of the ''recoil does all the work,
even to shooting jet of water along
the barrel to keep it cool. 1t fires
seven hundred shots minute, and all
that the operator has to do is to aim it.
This is the S aaley gun. You can
not sec it in the United States now. for
it is owned by the government of Great
Britain. Cincinnati Enquirer.
