pLows AND FLOWING.
<,omments That should Receive Thought'
full Consideration.

full Consideration.
Flowing is something more than
stirring or heaving the soil. Ii proper
w done it turns completely under the
surface with the weeds, stubbie, grass,
stalks and other trash that may be upon
It. and brings to the surface the under
soil TO be acted upon by the different
elements that will aid materially to
make available portion, at least, OF
the plant food it may contain.
There is certainly a great variety OF
plows adapted to a large variety OF SOIL
and kinds of work. But there is con-
siderable in the handling OF the pillow
as well as in the way it is constructed.
And what would under ordinary cir
cumstances be considered a second or
third rate pillow, can, in the hands OF
thorough plowman, with good team.
be made to do really better work, than
a much better pillow in the hands of
man who is incapable of properly man.
aging it. Some plOws if properly adj
iusted will turn the soil completely
over, others seem to set it on edge,
while others put the soil in almost any
position between these two. OF course
some plows do better work in one
kind of soil, and some in other kinds.
1t is quite an item in doing good
work to secure pillow that is adapted
to the kind of coil and work that is
wanted to be done, adjust properly and
handle right. A pillow if made right
ought to do the best work when it is
running level; if it won't, or is made
to run on the point or heel, it will not
do the work that it is adapted for as
well as if it could be run level. 1t is
therefore not always the fault of the
pillow that good work is not done, al
though poor plowman is very willing
to lay the fault to the pillow let the
quality be what it may.
One of the objections to number of
sulky plows is that instead of carrying
the pillow, as properly constructed
sulky should do, the pillow is made to
carry the sulky, and instead of a light
running pillow the draft is increased to
the amount of the weight of the sulky
and driver. A good judge of pillow
can tell by its construction whether or
not it will do good work in the soil he
wants to plOw- Yet it is not always
good evidence that because a pillow
does not do good work in one kind of
soil that it will not be best in another.
1t is certainly not good economy to
purchase a poor pillow to save small
amount in the purchase price.
Whether it is walking, breaking
pillow, riding sulky or gang, make
quality of the pillow and of the work it
will do, as well as the draft. the first
considerations. aud then secure It at
as low a price as possible, but do not
overlook these points simply to save in
the cost.
Better acknowledge your ignorance
and get good man to select pillow for
you than to risk your own judgment
and get a pillow that will not answer
your purpose.-Western Plowman.

A CLEAR CASE.

Last night shortly after o'clock as Chief
Burrows was going home, he noticed that
a little house on the corner OF Pearl and
Walnut streets, West Side, was on fire and
Immediately turned in an alarm. The de-
partment with four horses to each engine
and hose wagon, ploughed over through
the mud and managed to get
the fire out before it got fairly started. The
house is occupied by Mrs. Roberts who
was away from home at the residence of a
neighbor. Merry little was in the house ex-
cept stove and the kitchen furniture
The damage to the property was about $50.
While searching the premises for the
origin of the fire a keg was found under
the stairway which was filed with kind
ling half burned and which had evidently
been coal oiled. This was brought back
as a souvenir and full examination will
be made into the case today. Chief Wal
den said he had no doubt but that the fire
was intentional and Chief Burrows and all
others present concurred in the opinion.

ADJUSTMENTS.
CRAWFORD GRAND.

Prof. Gentry's Equine and Canine show
was the attraction at the Crawford Grand
last night and considering the weather,
was well attended If this afternoon and
evening are fine it is safe to say the opera
house viii be packed. The audience wit
messed a much more interesting entertain
ment than is billed and the intelligence
displayed by the ponies and dogs is simply
incredible. They dance, pose, and do
everything except talk. Barney's back
somersault is d wonder, while one holds
their breath during Dalmeta's perilous
leap Aside from the wonderful part Of
the entertainment both dogs and ponies
seem TO have keen appreciation of any
thing funny and are constantly playing
amusing pranks. During the performance
Juliet comes out and takes a seat in the
box and carries on a dreadful Irritation
with the audience. Major clowns every act
and then comes before the curtain for ap-
plause If no one notices him he walks
back very sheepish, but il he gets a hand
as he usually does, he retires in the most
graceful manner. After the entertain
ment last night the audience was invited
back 10 see the pets, and many took ad-
vantage of the opportunity. Major meets
everyone at the stage entrance and wants
TO shake hands, and if any dogs are noticed
he is very much offended. One Of the
young ponies expects to be petted and
wants TO set down on everybody's lap.
The see-saw and grand tableau are also
very interesting features. The audience
seemed to enjoy the performance very
much, and was lavish with its applause,
which encourages the animals perceptlbIy.

\ NEW RETAIL STORE.

With the advance of spring business is
looking up with the retail trade. and the
best evidence of this is in the fact that
several new stores will be opened very
shortly. 4 dry goods house and two new
groceries are spoken of as certain, while
several other branches are likely to find
themselves with new competitors in the
field. The foregoing was the gist of CON
verSation held yesterday between some
business men, and as usual, some one
wanted TO have all the particulars and get
down TO a sure thing at once. In response
To this a gentleman of undoubted veracity
stated that he knew for fact Of one new
store that would be opened in the gents
furnishing line within a month and he ex-
pected to see their display ad in the EAGLE
almost any day now. He went on to state
that the store would be located in the first
or second block east of Main on the north
side OF Douglas. and that il would be one
of the finest stores in the city, carrying
the most complete stock in the line One
gentleman Is well known business man
of this city and his partner is from Cincin-
natl, and viii be in this city 10 stay this
coming week As they are both good
business men, with years of experience. it
Is safe TO say that they Will make it a go.
As the speaker would not give any further
information the subject was dropped at
that.

BUYING CONTRACTORS.

Some of the sidewalk contractors, it is
claimed, have been following up the old
plan Of accepting money from property
owners and construct walk. Some fellow
who does not Want walk put down to be
charged up to his property gives a few
dollars to the contractor and sidewalk is
not constructed. If walk is not turned in
and paid for, and the city engineer claims
to keep watch that none is paid for that
has not been constructed, the contractor
gets something out of it anyhow and prop
erty owners built on the Doodle plan get in
their work and keep down the improve
ment ordered. Two or three have been
bold enough to announce they had got
contractors to glance over them and
thought it very bright thing to do and
only very bright man could handle it
that way One of them is accredited with
asserting that he could buy any sidewalk
contractor, and it would be cold day
when they got a sidewalk down at his ex-
pense.
The public improvement committee of
the council have the matter in hand and
according to a member proposes to figure
on filling in some of the missing links.
Also it is hoped within the next few weeks
to have the missing links of walk on the
north side of Douglas avenue from the
river to Washington avenue put in and
the sidewalk improvement for the avenue
about completed.
