dable pride Of their owner. Half
titled, improbable potato fields be-
speak their owner drudge. So also
the man who spends his time with
an ill-bred, half-starved, filthy as
semblage of improbable dumb ami
mails that he calls a dairy herd,
is no doubt engaged in drudgery.
Not so with the dairyman who has
made the breeding and rearing of
dairy stock a study, and has been sue
cessful in filling his well arranged,
clearly and comfortable stable with
fine cows having superior milk and
butter records.
tits true that the dairy, however,
fine and productive as it may be, re-
quires daily care and attention; but
pleasing and profitable employment
throughout the year on the dairyman's
own farm and in his own business is
in no true sense drudgery. Indeed
such employment may be a delight.
1t is a panacea for a multitude of ills
to which idle and listless humanity
is subject. Weeks devoted to loung.
ing and gossip are Improbable weeks
Six months of the year spent in idle
ness in no way contributes to the
happiness or usefulness of a farmer OIL
any one else.
Just now, when better prices are
obtained for farm products, it is a
good time for farmers to take more
cheerful views of life. Dependency
and drudgery are very nearly related
and mutually help to increase and
strengthen each other. fla farmers
business is not prosperous, and he il

those men who characterize farm
labor as drudgery, or joining in the
cry that farming does not pay
will only aggravate his trouble anC
increase his discomfort. The profits
Of farming are seldom large, and thu
last few years have, to many farmers
been years of depression and discour
agement. 1t is thought, however
by those we'll qualified to judge, tina
the worst is past, and that we ar,
about entering on period of agricul
tural prosperity. While farmer
throughout the country are uniting

RAILROAD MATTERS.
A sharp Lawyer Win Bring 800 suits

A sharp Lawyer Win Bring 500 suits
 Against the Consolidated Road.
 When the Westchester race track was opened, a year ago, the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company had monopoly of the passenger traffic, and charged 50 cents for round trip tickets, an excess of IA cents over the legal rate. Several persons who thought that they had been swindled brought suit against the company, and in each instance recovered $50 and costs. This fact stimulated a lawyer named Henry Wehle to look up persons who could make affidavit to the fact that they had paid 50 cents each for tickets.
 He began his work a month ago, and as the year within which complaints should be made expired last evening at o'clock he had to do some lively work. He says he has so far succeeded that he has filed 500 complaints against the com pany. He had men visit the Mon- mouth, Brighton and Guttenburg tracks and ask each person they met whether he had gone by rail to the Westchester track during the August meeting of 1889. Not only were plaintiffs sought at the race track, but also in horse cars, elevated trains, cafes, hotels and even on the streets.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

The Acme ball club went to Nauga- tuck this afternoon to play ball with the nine in that place.
 l It is said that something like fifteen Brotherhood players are anxious to get back into the National league. It is also said that the Play CTS league have twenty men ready to jump to them. From all that can be gathered, both sides will be treated to some very unpleasant sur prises when the time comes to sign players for next season.
 There is trouble in the Athletic club and Manager Sharsig is looking out for new players. Yesterday Third Raseman Denny Lyons was suspended indetinetly for drunkenness and insubordination, and Pitcher Mickey was released and Pitcher Eddie Seward was laid off with out pay for the remainder of the season at his own request.
 With only part of their regular team the Acmes visited Naugatuck Saturday, and despite the ieers and misses of the | spectators taught the local team a lesson | they will not soon forgot. The score stood to l in favor of Naugatuck up to the sixth inning, when the boys from the Brass City went in and pounded out runs, winning two more in the next inning. In the ninth Klobedanz let up
 
 on bases by long drives. Two men were out and hope revived ill the hearts of the friends of the Naugatuck nine, but that hope was knocked into oblivion by pretty throw of Buffers from second base to the home plate, shutting off run and winning the game, to2, Base bali games this morning resulted as follows: Players league: New York :, Buffalo ,; Boston II, Cleveland :; Pittsburg :, Philadelphia 3.
