More Poultry Wanted.

All things considered, poultry of
all kinds have sold higher the past
two years than anything else pro
duced on the farm. As an industry
poultry raising is entirely In the
shadow of all others, yet none can
be shown to net as much for the
labor and money invested. The
past two or three weeks live
chickens have sold at s and 9 cents
pound, and turkeys at u to IA
cents, and either dressed, much
higher. 1t is very clear the sup
ply has not kept pace with the
rapidly growing demano. St.
LOUIS Is a great poultry market,
shipping to all points of the com
pass, the dressing and shipping of
all kinds of poultry being now the
sole occupation of several firms
here. There were no such firms
here two or three years ago, and
three times the amount or quantity
of poultry can now be disposed of
at former prices. The raising of
poultry for market merits much
more attention than it is receiving.

We wish we could induce the
large numbers of farmers whose
farms are not well supplied with
fruit trees, vines, ETC., to plant
enough to supply their tables.
Most farmers have a supply ofap-
pies of varying chara cter, but the
proportion that can furnish their
home tables with an abundance OF
small fruits, grapes, pears, etc, is
small indeed. Why should not
every farmer have q vineyard for
his own use, where grapes can be
grown. Fifty Concord vines can
be bought for dollar-certainly
the cost cannot be offered for an
excuse. Peach trees are very
cheap and small fruits are also very
low. They are always desirable
on the farm and in addition to the
qualification ola healthy taste, they
go very far towards promoting the
family health. Less animal food
and more fruit will make the
farmer a better man, mentally,
morally and physlcally.-Rural

Here's a Tall Fish Story.

The physical powers of the lycoside-the
popular running, ground or wolf spiders-are
well Illustrated by an instance recorded in the
proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences
OF philadelphia, says the Popular Science
Monthty. The result, as reported was achieved
oy pure strength and activity, without any of
the mechanical advantages Of a snare. Mr.
swampy wood, which was pierced by a dixie
three feet wide, was attracted by the extrao--
binary movements of huge black spider in the
middle of ditch.
Closer examination showed that the creature
had caught fish. Sne had fastened upon it
with deadly grip just on the forward side of
the dorsal fin, and the poor fish was swimming
round and round slowly or twisting its body as
Ii pain. Toe head of it's back enemy was
sometimes almost pulled under the water, but
the strength of the fish would not permit a u
entire submersion. 1t moved its fins as if ex-
hausted, and often rested. Finally it swan
under floating leaf near the shore and made a
vain effort to disodge the spider by scraping
against the under side Of the leaf.
The two had now approached the bank
Suddenly the long black legs of the spider
emerged from the water, and the hinder ones
reached out and fastened upon the IRREGULAR
ties of the side of the ditch The spider com
menced tugging at his prize in order to land it,
The observer ran to the nearest house for a
wide-mouthed bottle leaving his friend to
watch the struggle. During an interval of six
or eight ~ mites absence the spider had drawn
the fish entirely out of the water; then both
creatures had fallen in again the bank being
struggle, and on MIR. Springs return the fish
was almost hoisted, head first, more than half
its length out upon the land 1t was very much
exh tusted, hardly making any movement, and
was being slowly and steadily drawn up by
the spider, who had evidently gained the vic.

Humble Heroism.

Martial heroes are many. and their deeds
of valor and self-abDegation have oft been
noble and iIlustrious. But for simple in
trepid courage that is equal to the most
reckless daring in point Of bravery if not in
briIliance the faithful locomotive engineer
is nos surpassed And when the final reck-
oning comes it is not likely that ne will be
forgotten. Only the other day an incident
demonstrating the iron nerve of an engineer
was thus dramatically described in a dis
patch from Erie:
A detached section of an east-bound
/ freight train had been run into by another
section OF the freight and a portion of the
debris was thrown over on the west-bound
track. Just then Engineer John Burns of
Buffalo, who was coming down the hill with
his passenger train at the rate of fifty miles
an hour, saw a truck ahead and then a
freight car. He saw that an attempt 20 stop
his train ard jump would sacrifice the lives
! of his $50 passengers. His fireman had left
him.
Springing from his seat behind the boiler
Burns put on every pound of steam and,
opening his sand box so as to get frmer
hold of the rail, the iron monster gave a
snor: and sprang forward, threw the truck
and cut through the freight car and other
debris. Burns, with wonderful fortitude,
held the lever, and the moment he had
cleared the obstruction reversed his engine
and threw on the air brake As the train
entered the wreck the sides were torn out
of three Of the coaches. The screams Of
women rose high above the screeching of
the steam. Although the engine was dis
mantled, brave Engineer Burns emerged
from the debris alive, but covered with scars
and bruises. Stout-hearted men embraced
the engineer Historically, realizing that his
heroism had saved the train.
There are victories of peace no less re-
nowned than those of war.

From political standpoint. the situation
in South Carolina is described as somewhat
peculiar. Everybody is talking politics,
and the people are wrought up to high
pitch of excitement, which is confined to no
class nor to any particular section of the
state. 1t is general throughout the whole
state, and affects both races. So much bit
terness has been engendered that an OPP
pressive dread of differences eliminating
in open conflict and possibly bloodshed is
widely prevalent. Meanw bile the leaders
of the opposing factions are hard at work.
and neither side will leave a single stone
unturned to insure victory. 1t is to be
hoped that calm counsels may prevail, and
the conflict may be confined to legitimate
political antagonism.

Speaking of the proposed repeal of a
Baltimore city ordinance which forbids
torchlight professions the venerable Amer
team vigorously protests and asserts that
''such professions serve no good purpose
whatever. They are a relic of former no
tions of campaigning, when the people were
supposed to be ignorant and easily i'm
pressed by brass bands and bowling for this
or that candidate, and when noise was
more potent than argument. Many cities
have followed the example of Baltimore
and prohibited them altogether, but few
had as much reason as this city for SO
doing" Judging from these very earnest
and feeling remarks we should surmise that
the American doesn't expect to be in such
q condition this fall as TO find any comfort
or consolation in torchlight procession.
IL Is little irritating when man is down.

fronts the republicans of Baltimore. After
wrangling among themselves nearly q
month and being unable to adjust existing
differences, they have been compelled to
submit their respective claims to the demo-

to recognition in the coming election. Ac-
cording to the state election law recently
passed only one set of candidates can repre-
sent the Republican party and be entitled
to the emblem, which consists of the head
