PETERsBURGB, Ind, May 25.-Satur-
day evening about o'clock horse and
buggy were found by Joseph Dean in
front of his house, about , miles south
of town. The buggy contained the
body of William johnson with
a bullet through his heart. In
the buggy were two pistols with several
chambers of each empty. As it was
known that Johnson and LATE Sprinkle
had been together in the buggy search
was made for the missing man, who
was found about a quarter of a
mile nearer town lying by the
side of the road with a bullet
through each of his lungs. Sprinkle, still
alive, was taken to his home, where he
died about midnight 1t is not known
how the shooting originated, as there
was no witness of the affair, but it is
known that both men nursed an old
grudge, left town together in Sprinkles
buggy. and they probably fought it out
with the above result.

PURE WATER SUPPLY.
why 1t should Receive the Most Careful
Attention of Earmers.


The law that governs water. the We
hicle which transports the energy OF
the soil into and through the plant and
animal. and the harmonious operation
of this law, IN conjunction with the law
Of nutriment, should receive our care
ful attention. As water is the sub
stance which carries all food for plants
and animals into and ont Of circulation,
il becomes of the utmost Importance.
II the laws which govern all else be
practically known and the knowledge
of the part which water plays in
growth and production be wanting, our
efforts win not reach the highest sue
cess. Il is not enough that water is
present in suitable quantities. it must
be palatable and easily accessible; Just
enough and not too much. Better a
shortage Of food than of water. better
irregularity in feeding than in water
ing, for if the ration be temporarily de-
ficient and the vehicle for transporting
the reserve stored in the system be
present, no great harm viii result
But no matter how much nutriment
may be stored or otherwise present, if
the universal carrier. water, is lacking,
not only can no work of nutrition be
done, but the system Immediately be-
comes feverish and diseased.
So to the dairyman. may say that if
his herd, however poor, is made uncom-
Portable because of GOODNESS or poorness
or inacecssibility of the water supply,
he would better study hydraulics before
buying ;horoughbreds. And to the
grain raiser might say that he would
better pay strict attention to set free
more plant food by better culture and
by outstanding farm manures, before
investing in commercial fertilizers; for
possibly if he utilities what he already
has, according TO law, he win have lit
tie lack. And to all breeders and cul-
tiyators Of plants, may not say that it
might be better to make il more COM
Portable for the plants and animals
which are already possessed, in order
that they may make the best use Of the
operations of the laws which govern
them. whether they be scrub or thor
oughbred, before buying that which is
too advanced for our present state of
knowledge. 1t is possible that part
of what we have is good and all that is
lacking is opportunity. As the stream
cannot rise above its source, so the ami
mai cannot be better than its breeder.
And to the breeders of thoroughbreds
may say, that it might be well to adopt
the practice Of that great Shorthorn
breeder, Mr. Bates, never to sell a
good animal to careless farmer. -

WASHING SHEEP.
A PrOtes. Against Cruel But Very Pop
ular Practice.

A Protest Against Cruel But Very Pop
ular Practice.
The time for washing sheep will soon
be here, and sheep raisers win be COM
PEELED to construct pens and washing
places, and drive their sheep mile or
two over a dusty road thereto and
souse them into the water and then
drive them back over the same dusty
road, the wool being in no better con-
dition and the sheep in 4 much worse
condition than before the perpetration
of the farce. 1t is positive injury to
sheep to be chased and iammed around
in a pen and then unceremoniously
soused into the water. 1t is fruitful
source of colds which often lead to
catarrh and consumption. Wool can be
washed better and cheaper after it has
been taken off of the Sleeps backs by
the manufacturer of wooden goods.
Buyers cannot tell washed wool from
unwashed in many cases, which is
ample proof that the practice is farce
and should be abandoned. Brother
farmers, is there no way to put stop
to this useless and cruel practice?
sincerely hope there is and that the
way may be discovered soon. Whose
ever is instrumental in bringing about
this result viii be rewarded, if in no
other way, by having his name ego

One peculiarly Of cows must be borne
in mind by the dairyman. A COW put
on short rations Immediately fails off
in quantity Of milk and is not 50 easily
brought back to full flow agasn. but
it takes a long course Of regular feeding
to bring her to her best quality and
quantity. Poor feeders often milk
cows for years without dreaming what
they are capable Of, either in quantity
or quality. To develop the normal, or
best possible production, requires
months and sometimes years Of careful
feeding on the food best adapted for
milk and butter. This is where care
and Judgment pay in the dairy. W.
