1t is as much of deception 10 brand
calculated s. G. rock, s'DIssolved Bone, J"
and other misleading names, as it was to
sell olcomargarine for butter. Some far
mers buy acid rock because 1t is cheap.
For the same reason people in the cities
bought oleomargarine. Pure butter could
not be produced by the farmer In compe-
tition with the so-caled butter or oleo-
margarine; neither can an animal phos-
phate be produced and sold by reliable
manufacturers in competition with So
called "Dissolved Bone" or acid rock.
Let butter, acid rock and animal phos-
phate be sold for what they actually are
and for what they are worth. AS pure
butter is to oleomargarine, so is Baugh's
animal bone $500 phosphate to acid
rock.

MIR. O'Brien died at his residence on
Sunday in frankfort, which had been
bis home since boyhood. Born 10 1886,
his first venture on his account was in
driving an omnibus between Frankford
and Philadelphia while be was quite q
youth. This occupation proved 80 re-
munerative that he went to Vermont, and
there took to horse-dealing. A little later
he bought stage line in Washington, sell
ing out at the outbreak Of the war at a
profit of some thousands OF dollars.
1t was then that he entered the show
business, on very small scale at first,
but advancing with such rapid strides
that he was soon rivaling Barnum. He
was in partnership with Adam Forepaugh
for while, and at that time was worth
$250,000. In late years, however, he
lost considerable amount, though still
retaining good bit Of property.
O'Brien's diamonds were formerly ia
nous. They sparkled from the button
holes Of his waistcoaf, and on every link
of his watch chain, not to mention his
massive rings, collar button and scarfpin.
He was wont TO swing heavy sandal
wood cane, with perfect menagerie of
beasts clcverly carved upon it. He leaves
widow and two daughters. The Press

One Of the causes for the overflow of the
York street creek was wall built by
Emanuel Bovine few years since, which
narrowed the channel and forced the flow
Of water at almost right angle. The
great amount of water could not pass the
narrow space in the short curve, conse-
quently the cement wall to protect the
city was overlooked and part OF it
washed away. If the creek is put back
to its original width, there will be no DIFF

the ups and downs OF circus life. Some
years ago he was proprietor OF some Of
the largest shows that traversed the coun-
try. At one time he presented his wife
with $40, 900 worth OF diamonds, and one
year he paid Barnum $4,000 for the use
of his name. To-day he dare not use his

The principles OF rotation have been
laid down as follows: l. Every plant ex-
iIausts the soil when carried off from IL.
.. But all plants do not exhaust the soil
equally. nor do different plants exhaust
the soil in the same manner. g. Even
when fed out on the farm, ali plants do
not restore TO the soil the same quantity
nor the same quality Of manure. 4. All
crops are not equally favorable to the
growth Of weeds. the nourishment OF
fungi or insects OF 10 the health Of the
land.
A study of these practical rules makes
plain the fact that rotation is not needed
under some circumstances. while in
Others 1t is a necessity for profitable cub
tivation. In some cases. as with aspar-
agus, onions. carrots. etc. farmers find
il To their interest TO cultivate these
on the same land year after year. ma

such plant food as best suits tine crop
Again. In very rich land. there is often
little or no need Of rotation.
On the other hand. many plants sue
ceed best on new land and are liable TO
degenerate if continuously cultivated on
the same soil. Strawberries are a well
known instance Of this Then again diff
ferent plants differ widely as to their
power of drawing food from one and the
same soil Rye and buckwheat. for in

when many other crops would starve.
And yet again. by long continued cul-

deciding upon a rotation Of crops. there

Death a, n Famous Parrot.

George Coughs parrot Polly died
Tuesday afternoon, aged over 40 years.
Polly was the most wonderful parrot
ever known in this state. She could not
only talk. but carry on conversation un-
derstandingly, and she bowed with great
courtesy when she said How do you
dos" and "Good-by." She could sing,
too. and sing well. giving whole stanzas
of songs which took her fancy without
missing a word or note. She had notions
in regard TO othe use of language. and ALSO
iutelv refused 10 say some words, though
perfectly free with their equivalents.
Among the obnoxious words were yes
and no. which she never was heard to
pronounce in her life. Polly was brought
to New Hampshire by James Elliott. and
was afterwards given 10 Joseph Morgan
in Bow, where she had her toes frozen
of. Sine was sold by him to Mrs. Thomas
Sargent, whose husband kept the rail
road station at R0binson's ferry. and was
purchased by Mr. Clough about thirty
years ago for $50. She could talk fluent
ly at that time. and continued TO inn
prove until she became almost master of
the language. She was visited by hum
dreds OF people annually. and was known
all over The state.-Concord Monitor.
