SHORT TALK FOR FARMERS

Taxes That Gan Kill Dogs Can XIII Mel
PA Ghase.inr St Louis Farmer and Breeder,
Farmers are taxed to death"
They are. often taxed out. of their oe.
cupation.
In old times in VermoDt., the dogs
were killing off our sheep. so we got the
Legislature to put a heavy tax on dogs.
That tax killed off the dogs and Let
the. sheep live.
1t looks as though Congress an6Aeur
State Legislature were in conspiracy
to kill off the farmer for the benefit OF
the monopolists.
In 1857 / left Vermon ont and movbd to
Iowa. Two years before had gone out
there and bought raw prairie lana.
NV taxes on that 16o acres was, S. per
year.
In the spring of '5T the land was
fenced, eighty acros broken> a good
frame house bNilt, and barn.
In the fall ahe assessor catas' around
and made the following inquiries.
How many acres fenced?
How many acres. plowed?
How many bushels of wheat raised;
how many of corn. potatoes; tons of hay
cut and in stack?
How many cows, horses and hogs?
Value. of reaper, mower, plows, har-
rows, corn shelter, winnowing machine,
etc?
Valae of hoase, barn and furniture Of
house?
I did not like to have him ask thes
questions, because l did not like to ans
wer them.
But must tell the truth. Telling the
truth cost me $50. My taxes next year
were 500, and increased every year for
| five years, by which time / had been
| taxed to deathr' Yes, taxed out of my
occupation, by the addition of these
| taxes to tariff taxes!

General agent for the celebrated
Plummer Reclining, Invalid and Ham,
mock Chair, all combined in one, has
established an agency here and can
be found at No. 211 West Markham
street, three doors east of the Capt.

inspect this truly great home comfort.
Once introduced in a family the chair
will be considered indispensable, in
health as we'll as in sickness; more
over, while the chair itself is q luxury,
the price is such, as to bring it within
the reach of the man of moderate
means, while the finer upholstered
grades are most appropriate present
for many occasions. He would also
call the attention of physicians to the
fact, that no more convenient and
practical examining chair can be
found than the celebrated Plummer
chair. Call and examine them,
whether you buy or not, he will be
pleased to wait upon you.

Longear, the Crafty Hare.

In certain forest lived a mighty
elephant, king of herd, Toothy by
name. On certain occasion there
was long drouth, so that pools,
tanks, swamps and lakes were dried
up. Then the elephants sent out
exploring parties after water. A
young one discovered an extensive
lake surrounded with trees and teem-
ing with water fowl. 1t went by the
name Of Moon Lake. The elephants,
delighted at the prospect of having an
inexhaustable supply of water, march
ed off to the spot, and found their
most sanguine hopes realized. Round
about the lake in the sandy soil were
innumersble hare warrens, and as the
herd of elephants tramped on the
ground the hares were severely injur-
ed, their homes broken down, their
heads, legs and back crushed beneath
the ponderous feet Of the monsters
of the forest. AS soon as the herd
had withdrawn the hares assembled,
some hating, some dripping with
blood, some bearing the corpses of
their cherished infants, some with
piteous tales of ruination in their
houses, all with tears streaming from
their eyes, and wailing forth, "Alas,
we are lost! The elephant herd will
return, for there is no water else
where, and that will be the death Of
all of u.s."
But the wise and prudent LongeaI
volunteered to drive the herd away
and he succeeded in this manner
Longear went to the elephants, anC
having singled out their king he ad.

"Ha, ha bad elephant, what brings
you with such thoughtless frivollty

at once"

heard this he asked in establishment

"Ahem! Hare" said the elephant,
somewhat staggered, "and what mes

Excellency the Moon?'
"You have this day injured several

are the subjects of me? If you value

The other replied, "He is now in

the manned hares."
eff that be the CASE" said the
elephant humbly, "bring me to my
lord, that may tender him my sub

So the hare conducted the king of
the elephants to the edge of the lake
and showed him the reflection of the
moon in the water, saying, "There
stands our lord in the midst of the
water, plunged into meditation; rever-
ence him with devotion and then de-
part with speed. ="
Thcreupon the elephant poked his
proboscis into the water and muttered
feryent prayer. By so doing he
set the water in agitation, so that the
reflection of the moon was all of
culver.
"Look!" exclaimed the hare, ellis
majesty is trembling with rage at

"Why is His Supreme Majesty en-
ragged at me?" asked the elephant.
"Because you have set the water
in motion. Worship him and then be
off !"
The elephant let his ears droop,
bowed his great head TO the earth,
and after having expressed in suita-
BILE terms his regret for having annoy
ed the Moon and the hare dwellings
in it, he vowed never to trouble the
Moon Lake again. Then he departed,
and the hares have ever since lived
there unmolested. - From Curious

"Spring has come," said each little flower
AS she stirred in her damp brown bed;
First Snowdrop peepedin her neat white cap,
Then modestly hung down her head.
"Do hear Sir Robin?" said Crocus white,
81 am certainly late" cried she;
Then popped out her head from under the
clothes,
And looked straight into the tree.
The Mayfower woke, and she drew from the
moss
On which she had pilowed her head
Her small waxen pitfalls of odorous sweets
To perfume her soft loWly bed
"'Tis darksome down here" moaned Violet
blue;
But when she crept out to the sky,
She had to slip back just behind green leaf,
TWAS so bright for her tender young eye.
"These rich golden beams," said Buttercup
gay,

And churn them and put them in bright little
balls,
The green of my young buds to crown"
ooh, there is a beet" cried Miss Glover so red,
"He's buzzng because Pm not up"
So she sprang into sight with her sweet honey

And asked Mr. Bee in, to sup.
