HIGH LUGENSR

The high license law has been in operation
in Massachusetts but three months, but it has
already done wonders. Facts concerning its
working in sixteen cities have been collected.
As general rule the police authorities testify
that the license holders are carefully obeying
the law in such matters as prompt closing,
Sunday sales and sales to minors and drunken
easy to keep an effective watch on the saloons
Police Commissioner Whiting of Boston be-
lieves that the law is going to work we'll and
says: ri hear it praised everywhere by pro.
hibitionists and clergymen who were not
disposed favorably toward 1t at first. The
and obey the law perfectly, as a rule. Boston
has to take the drunkenness Of several other
cities and towns, acting as sewer for them
so you cannot tell much by our figures of ar.
rests" l.. Edwin Dudley, secretary of the
Law and Order league, says: Our agents al
over the State report a most gratifying
change in the way the law is obeyed. They
have followed drunken men, in many cases
all over town in their efforts to get more
liquor, and 1t is always refused. After three
months of trial we find most of the places
which were refused licenses either closed o.
devoted to the sale of other commodities
The provision of the law which requires oul
saloons to make no sales of liquor between
the hours of II p. m and a. m. is observed
as never before. 1t is now almost impossible
to find a saloon open after II p. NJ, and oul
| streets become quiet and peaceful at muci
earlier hour than those of other cities. 1t il
| impossible to find saloon open in all Bostoi
on Sunday. The great reduction of the traf
| fic is doing great good.
Doubtless as the law has longer trial tn
| reports will be still more encouraging. Higl
license is the most effective way of dealing
| with "Rum" that has yet been found.

Care ofLiye steck.

from D. D. T. Moore, in the Independent.1
All working teams need special care at this
season, when they are required to expend so
much strength in field operations. Horses
of treatment. They should be given oats
regularly, as they cannot perform their ardu-
GUS tasks on grass alone. All domestic ami
mails that are not kept up should have the
comfort of good shade and pure water, and
every pasture ought to be provided with
these indispenssbles. Cows often suffer from
excessive heat in pasture, for lack Of shade,
while the absense of water renders them un.
comfortable and lessons the profits of their
owners. Every wise stockman understands
this, and looks alike to the comfort of his an
imals and the dollars derivable therefrom.
Currying, brushing, and an occasional wash
ing of horses pays well at this season, as
does their protection from flies. If kept
up, clean and sweet stables promote their
health.
Hurdling stock, though little practised in
this country, is quite common in England.
The advantage claimed for it is that the land
grazed over may be left to grow unchecked
for long time, until its turn comes again.
Undoubtedly more stock can be kept on q
given area in this way, as, next to soiling, it
best insures cropping of the herbage over
the entire surface. Hurdling stock on thin
grass and feeding extra grain is a good way
to increase its fertility, whose droppings are
pretty evenly distributed.
Speaking of sheep, remember that they
should have access to water, be provided
with shade and be given salt frequently.
Young pigs intended for early market should
have extra care and feed, but others require
little attention if they have clover pasture.
Poultry should be protected from hawks,
rats and vermin. Use traps and guns to
vanquish the former, as advised last month;
and apply plenty of whitewash to the sides
| and floor Of the poultry house, and kerosene
to the 1oosts, if You wish the vermin to
| vanish.

RUSSIAN WHEAT.

RUSSIAN WHEAT.
Russia is important as a wheat growing
and wheat exporting country, but 1t is not
surprising that she is not gaining in these
respects as she might. Consul General Way
of st. Petersberg gives some interesting in
formation concerning Russian wheat and the
way it's growers are treated. The great
grain-producing plains of the empire are
naturally divisible into two belts stretching
across the country from Poland far into
Siberia-the black lands of 100000 square
miles, as fertile as any to be found in the
world, devoid of stone, needing no fertiliz-
ing and producing huge crops year after
year; and the arabic steppes of 60,oO0
square miles, without forests, which can be
fertilizsd to advantage and which are said to
resemble our western prairies. But little of
this land is utilized. The peasants are
crushed beneath the burdens imposed by the
government. They must buy their lands
from the government on system of annual
payments, and care seems to be taken that
they shall never quite pay for them. They
lack transportation facilities, for railroads
there have been built for military purposes
and not for grain carriage. Then, by requir-
ing the peasant to obtain permits to send
wheat over the states roads, such delays are
brought about as shall lead to the gluttering
of local stations and 80 to vex the peasant
| into selling his grain to agents of the govern
| ment at sweeping reductions of price. the
government exports this and converts it into
gold at huge profit in the markets of western
Europe.
No wonder the wheat lands of Russia are
not utilized as they would be under differ
ent policy. And it is probably good thing
| for this country that they are not.

Matilda Marin
from the Youths Companion

lfrom tne IoushS Companloni
She was little mite, who played in the
night, yet she had an intimate and soul-satis-
flying friend, her doll, Matilda Maria.
Her own name was Maggie Kirke, and
though she expected sometime to "take in
washing" as her mother did, and work half
the night over the ''starched things" she
considered herself at present a very lucky
and care-free little girl; for dirty, ragged and
hungry as she might be, she still had Matilda
Maria and her beautiful gutter.
One day the cry of "Fire!" was heard in
the tenement house where her mother lived,
and the crazy old structure was speedily
wrapped in flames. There was no time to
| save the household goods of any sort, and
| the shrieking women had barely rushed out
side, with babies in their arms and children
| building seemed to be filled with smoke anc
| fire.
"Where's Maggie, Mrs. Kirke?" called 8
| neighbor ACROSS the way. And Mrs. Kirke,
| hotter than ever she had been at the ironing
| table, replied: "Praise be to goodnessi Miss
| Mullen, Maggie's safe. I sent her to the store
| not Eve minutes ago."
The fremen had come by this time, anc
were hastily running up a ladder. "Mrs
Kirke followed it with a curious glance, anG
| gave one cry when she saw that it was intend
ed to reach her window, and that Maggie
stood there in the opening, franGoally waving
one little hand.
Then the woman threw her apron over hel
eyes and saw no more until little form wal
pressed into her arms, and a voice-Maggie'E
own-kept repeating: "You sick, marmie
You 'fraida I amt hurt bit. Wake upg'
Mrs. Kirke did wake up, and took the littl
thing to her heart.
"Maggie," she ssks, "wherever was you
Didn't you 60 to the store when I toll
youa"
"Why, yes," said Maggie, "'course did
but I come and see the fire burnin' u
our house, and run up stairs after Tild
Mira"
How she had mansged to run up over tn
heated stairs, through the stifing atmosphere
no one knew, but they did know one thing
that Matilda Maria, made of stick of kind
ling wood and dressed in an old red han dkel
chief, was quise safe.

Jew HAVEN, CONN. MONDAY MORNING, AUGUST 49, 1889.

the day, in recognition of Lees matchless
virtues, would confer high honor upon the
country. While the South should be first
to celebrate Lees birthday,it is not unwilling
that the country should participate in the
privilege of paying tribute to one of the fore
most of American patriots, the equal of
Washington in peace and in war.
other day It was shown how Southerners can
manage elections when they want to. On
the very evening before the election new
ordinance, changing the methods of the cleo
ton, had it's third reading in the common
council, and up to noon on election day had
been posted in only one place. This provided
among other things, that the ballots should
'contain nothing but the name or names of
the officer or officers to be voted for"
though it is not clear whether this was a
new or an old provision. There was in the
field citizens ticket headed by G. 81.
Spencer. During the balloting even chal-
lengsrs were kept from the polls. When
the box containing the votes for mayor came
to be counted, objection was made to the
counting of all ballots except those which
had on them the name of the Office as well
as the officer or officers belonging to each
box. This claim, it will be seen, was d.
rectly against the language Of the ordinance
just adopted, but it was justified on the
ground that the State law required the
name of the Office to be on the ballot as well
as the name of the candidate. When the
point was made that the State law was
meant to apply only to State and county
elections, municipal elections being governed
by the general law of interpretations, by
charters or by ordinances, the election oficera
peremptoriiv decided in favor of standing
by the State law. Under this ruling 107
votes for Spencer were thrown out, leaving
bat one to be counted for him, while his
ring opponent, with only 81 votes, was de-
clsred elected. All the elected candidates
were counted out in this Way.
