DULL RAIL BUSINESS.

Railroad Builders Can't GetMoney for Their
Bonds and Securities.
W. E. Sproull, the freight agent of the
Cambria Iron Works, was in the city yes
terday. He says the rail business is very
dull at present.
The builders of railroads find it hard
work to float their bonds, and the stringency
in the money market makes it more difficult
than ever.

Summer Care of Poultry.

1t ought not to be supposed that fowls
need no special care in summer, for in
this season the young are subject to many
diseases which older ones are able to re-
sist. Besides this, insects of all kinds
abound at this time, of which the fowls
have their full share, and against such
they should have all the protection pos
sible. Cleanliness in their surroundings
is the important thing. and the best pre-
ventive not only of diseases but of in
sects as well. The hen house and roost.
ing places should not only be kept clean,
but should be made untenantable by
fowl vermin by the use of insecticides
OF these kerosene is one of the very best,
and from its very low price it may be
used in the most liberal manner, either
pure or as an emulsion. If used to kill
lice on fowls themselves it should be
highly diluted and applied sparingly,
and on little chicks not at all BY greas-
ing the older ones little with lard un-
der the wings and on the head, and fur
nishing them with good place where
they can wallow and dust at will, they
will soon rid themselves of lice if their
runs and roosts are not infested.

Flo. IA HOMEMADE HARROW.
for narrowing a timothy or clover sod

lage, but for all ordinary narrowing my
slant tooth has proven itself invaluable. +"
The tooth bars are made of 2x2 inch
pine, riveted with a quarter inch rivet at
every tooth. The teeth are of three
eighths inch steel, about six inches long,
and driven III even with the wood on a
slant of forty degrees. The harrow is
made in two sections. On top of the
tooth bars, in the centre of each section,
Is 2x4 inch pine cleat or cross bar bolt
ed to each tooth bar near the front edge
of tooth bar. Near each end of the tooth
bars is thin, hardwood cross bar
boited to each tooth bar near the back
edge and on the under side of the tooth
bars. This arrangement of bolting the
cross bars keeps the tooth bars from
twisting.
The sections are braced as shown
Both of them are hinged together by a
braced frame made of two 2x4 inch
sticks, with an inch oak board bolted
across the center and extending in front
to draw the harrow by. The frame and
sections are fastened together by swivel
bolts. Handles made from smooth fence
wire for lifting the harrow in trashy
ground are also shown. The seat is from
an old Mccormick mower, and is what
is called the adjustable sliding seat. By
sliding the seat to the right the driver
can balance the harrow perfectly. The
teeth are placed seven and half inches
apart in the tooth bar, and the bars the
same distance apart, center to center, so
that this harrow has tooth to every one
and a half inches, and the ends do as
good work as the middle.
The materials can be bought, with the
exception of the seat, for So or 81. Being
nearly all made of pine it is very light,
and can be used for cross narrowing DO

Oil meal fed iberally to hogs keeps

farmer in Iowa who lost fifteen hogs by
cholera, when he got some oil meal and
fed it freely and lost no more hogs. Oil
meal is good feed for any stock, and es-
pecially for hogs fed on corn until they
become feverish and constipated and an
easy prey to the cholera. Roots and a
variety of food are desirable for hogs.

No Longer a Republican, and Why.

Ex-Governor Cameron, of Virginia.
is out in letter in which he renounces
his allegiance to the republican party.
He details at length his reasons for his
present action. Among them he says
that the party has become sectional and
is now trying:to keep in power by reviv-
ing the passions of the war. He con.
demns the Lodge bill, which he says is
regarded by one section as blunder
and the other as crime; says the pres
ident has done nothing south of
Mason and Dixon's line since his inaug-
Grafton except to recognize with reluct-
ance that any such country existed;
and says his appointments in the south
have been men without capacity or
influence.
Cameron concludes: but OH this
remains my judgement for us TO do for
men who recognize a higher duty than
that which can be expressed by a
party name, and that is to free our
selves from all part and lot with a
party which has no faith too sacred for
violation and recognises no pledge too
solemn to be broken. l cannot lend
myself to the oppression of the people,
and if there is no political organization
which meets the full measure of ouI
approval we can at least leave that
which violates our every idea of right
and sentiment.
Not presuming to set up for any
| other man or set of men standard OF
duty, and willing to concede to every
one else that freedom of thought and
action have always claimed for my
self, my resolve, founded on a desire
to be true to myself and my country, is
! to refuse all sympathy or cooperation
| with the republican party in the cru
sade against this section which it now
espouses and under the leadership OF
which it submits
