 From some investigations l am in- clined to believe that the late cold snap dId more damage to the vege- table kingdom than most any one has any idea of l find my Leconte pear trees killed at least the inner bark is black both on limb and trunk, so far as 1 examined; and also l have two pOmegranate bushes killed to the ground; oats are badly killed, and am very fearful that fruit of all kinds will be unpleasant ly scarce this year.
 Mir. John T. Grain, one of our most worthy, industrious and prosperous farmer citizens, has q beet growing in his garden that beats any beet that l have heard of in the county. 1t is inches in diam eter at the top, l2 inches of it's length is above ground, and judging from the way it tapers above ground, there is l2 or more in the ground it has been growing three years, and there is no telling how much larger it will grow yet, before it stops. Now, if anybody can beat this beet, they can beat Coop LrCK.

THE BLAIR BILL.

The irrepressible Blair has been inhicting some of his long-winded speeches on Congress recently, but scarcely anybody seemed to pay any attention to him, and it is now evi- dent that his pet bill 10 educate the people at federal expense will be de- fcated, when it comes up for passage. He has been abusing the newspapers for not publishing his speeches, and it is now given out that he will quit the Republican party if they do not rally promptly to his support. Well, let him go where the woodbine twineth, and retire to the shades of his native obscurity. His bill smacks too much of paternalism and central izati0n to command the suffrages of Democrats, and it is to be hoped and thought that there is a sufficient number of patriotic Republicans left to insure it's overwhelming defeat.

Report Board of Health.

To the Hon. Mayor and Common
 Council of Prescott, Ark:
 In the discharge of our duty as health officers and sanitarians, we de- sire respectfully to submit to your honorable body:
 That the natural drainage of the city is good, and that there is no natural reason why any considera- ble quantity of water and filth should accumulate in the corporate limits, there to stagnate and breed pesti- lence.
 It is we'll known that all stagnant water, in hot weather, breeds germs of disease. and with our natural drainage there is no excuse for stag nation.
 Your Board of Health recommend to your Honorable Council that inn mediate steps be taken, before the heat of summer commences, to have property owners clean up all fester- ing, stagnant and putrid pools of water, mud and filth upon or adja- cent to their residences or places of business.
 The neglect of the careless involves the lives and health of all, and as a city government, your duty should be to remove any and every condition inconsistent with the public welfare.
 Pools of water should not be al- lowed to collect in the ditches, con- taining possibly the carcasses of dead animals.
 Your attention is respectfully called to the condition of what is known as the "DeLay Brickyard. " And also to the collections in the rear of business houses, in crowded localities, where refuse, such as straw, shavings, old boxes and bar rels are cast to moulder and rot.
 In crowded localities the privy is often a public nuisance, and should receive your early and constant at tention. There can, in the opinion of your Board of Health, be no where found so prolific source of disease and death as in the neglect of human Ordure.
 Privies are badly constructed, gen. orally, with the droppings falling in- to stagnant water, or so arranged that it heats and matches germs and odors to such degree as to be of | fensive to the senses. In private families this condition is generally attended to, but among the shops along the principal streets and in al- levs, where these places are visited bv considerable number of people in the day, the atmosphere we breathe is loaded night and day with emenationS calculated to engcn- der disease.
 Lime, such as is used by the scav- enger, is only an absorbant and not disinfectant or destroyer of germ life The carbonate of lime is used. ! The chloride of lime disinfects and destroys germs.
 All of which is respectfully sub- mitted by Yours, etc.

It is given out at Washington that the Republicans will offer no tariff bill, relieving an oyer-burdened peo- pie, during the present Congress. ln- stead, the treasury looters have raised the duties (taXes) on many articles, by special bills, as a reward to certain manufacturers for money given which elected Harrison. Thus the corruptionists hope to con tinue to rule this country, but in this they are deceived, for the con sumers and producers are awakening on this important subject, and Re- publican downfall will result in ls92.
