Charcoal for InedinR

Grained and especially coru-fed
hogs relish Il little charcoal mixed with
their ratiOnS. 1t corrccts the acidity
which corn causes, and will often bring
cloyed animal back to its feed. Char
coal is also good for fowls In winter,
when snow is on the ground. it fills the
gizzard and helps 20 grind the food.
Slightly charring corn before feeding
makes it better for producing eggs,
though it is better still to substitute a
partial ration of whole wheats which

Wolcott's Story on Tabor.

1t is said there was much money
spent in the Colorado senatorial cam
paign. One day principal of u high
school met Tabor in the hall OF the
legislature. He had in his hand a
copy of Robert Elsmere." He SYM
pathized with Tabor in his critical
fight and expressed the hope that he
would pull through. He next casually
asked the senator what he thought OF
Robert Elsmere."
"No good. no good" Tabor replied.
"Wolcott bought him up three months
ago"

A GlancP al Nature,

Tho blades of corn stalk TO and fro
AS the green bull rushes by,
And the grasses shoot as they see it 90,
And the sweet potatoes eye.
Then the corn declares it would like to ear

But the slippery elm bark so clear
That they raise it celery.

For II goes against the grail.

The Roman republic up to the time
of Julius Caesar, or little before. us
Mr.. Froude has well pointed out in
his sketch of Caesars life, failed TO
supply lands and homes for the neigh
boring Italian populations which had
become truly Roman, and for the SOL
diery, who disbandel and had to find
work or starve. The ancestors of
large an agrJrian law and to take into
the merely urban rulo of the Roman
city the general and intelligent popu-
lation of Italy and make peninsular
Rome Cesar saw that the Roman
empire was getting too large to be
governed by the | million who lived
within the city of Rome and another 3
or million who lived Immediately
adjacent. But the Roman senate, u
patriotic body like the ruling and re-
spectacle families of England, refused
to admit these associated Italians into
Roman rights and powers. Cesar
thereupon, having spent ten years to
conquer Gaul and Germany. returned
to Rome demanding something OF IL
federation of all those who maintained
the Roman arms. Being threatened
with destruction he marched upon
Rome, and his enemies leaving it, he
was obliged to follow them; and when
he reconstructed the senate he put into
it not merely Italians, but Gauls and
barbarians, as they had been called,
from all the better provinces. In this
way an enlarged Rome with Il broader
basis Of representation lasted several
centuries longer aud without that en-
largement Rome might have expired
anterior to the birth of Jesus Christ,
from her civil contentious. Gath.

The idea that fermentation always
or even generally kills weed seeds is Il
common error. Some kinds may be
thus killed, but it is not much of
weed that is so easily gotten rid of.
Some kinds OF weed seeds grow better
after being gently heated in manure
heaps. The fear of drawing out weed
seeds is often given as the reason for
not applying manure as made, but it
is mistaken one.

Supervisor Mccarthy of this census district has proved himself unfit for the position by announcing the population of towns where the census enumerators had not finished their work. This is true of Bridgeport, whose enumeration of 45.- 541 gives universal dissatisfaction. Two houses on Gregory street were reported to the BEE, Saturday, as not counted, the two containing 26 persons. Another house of seven inhabitants on Atlantic street was in the same box. Newtown's population of 3099 was also announced before Enumerator A. w. Peck had fin ished his work. We had 1913 people in 1880, but, like all towns along the west ern division of the New England road. had our figures swelled then by the rail- road employees who were finishing the line. This number has been estimated as high as 200, but was probably not so large. We have not lost, apparently, by
 increase of deaths over births, for these
 have been figured out by ex-Town Clerk ! Peck and found to nearly balance It is
 hard to believe that almost 500 people
 have moved out of town in 10 years. The
