TUNNELTON, w. VA, July 9.-For
the last three years there has been
very bitter factional fight going on in
the Republican party of Preston county
which was inaugurated by the late
Samuel P. Mccormick when he moved
to this county, in opposition to the
leadership OF VIM. NJ. D. Dawson, editor
OF the KingwOod Journal. The fight
became so bitter in the campaign of
1855 that the NeiD Era was started by
Mccormick and others, In opposition TO
DawSOn's Journal. Ever since that
time the fight has been kept up, and
every succeeding campaign has only
widened the breach, each faction
struggling for the mastery Of the politi-
cal field and 20 drive the other fac
ton TO the wall. At last the
anti-DawsOn cement Of the party have
succeeded in capturing the organization
and with il the kinswOOd Journal, Mr..
Dawson having sold the Journal 10 Ed
ward McGrew Heermans, the talented
young son Of Cashier Z. Heermans, the
gentleman who has led the opposition TO
Dawson since the death of Mccormick.
II is understood that the Journal and
NelC Era will be consolidated and run by
Edward NJ. Heermans and James W.
White, who will use their best endeav-
Ors 20 heal up the breach In the party.
They are both talented young men and
experienced in newspaper work and no
doubt will make a success of the cOnsol-
idatiOn of the two papers financially,
but politically they have a thOrny path
70 tread, and will learn later they have
undertaken something they cannot ac-
cOmplish-make the Dawson element OF
their party fall into line and accept the
leadership of the new paper.
1t is the intention Of hon. VIM. NJ. o.
Dawson, we learn, 70 move 10 Charles
ton, KanaWha county, and engage IN
journalism in that thriving city. lie is
10 edit Republican daily, so therumOr
goes. There is not a man in the State
who has done more for his party than
William NJ. q. Dawson, and through his
unceasing efforts, in season and out OF
season. is due the large Republican ma
tOrity in Preston county. AS an organ
izer he has few equals and no superior.
The Republicans canRot replace Daw-
son IN Preston county. Apart from pol
itics, Mr.. Dawson has always been a
philosophical citizen and labored hard
for the advancement of Preston county.
All new enterprises received his hearty
cooperation. He never tired in saying
q good word for Preston. All citizens,
irrespective of party polictics, will be |
sorry TO see Mr.. Dawson leave the cOun- |
", but wish him abundant success in |
his chosen field OF labor.

AN EASY WAY TO RAISE SWEET-BRIAR.

AN EASY WAY TO RAISE sWEET-BRIAR.
Speaking to an old gardener the other
day, who had quantity of the hips on
his sweet-brier bushes, we suggested to
him the ACCESSIBILITY Of raising quantity
of young plants from the seed. He
stated that he very much wished to do
so, to have them for young hedge plants,
but has not been very successful so far,
and finds them hard to vegetate.
Our suggestion to him was to take the
hips, wash out the seed from the pulp,
then mix them with sand in a shallow
box. and bury the whole in the ground,
but so that they could be frozen through.
By this means the outer coating of the
seeds never becomes dry, which is the
reason they are often so long in coming
up. When spring comes, and before
vegetation starts too much, select piece
of sandy soil, bring to a fine filth as for
any other crop, then SOW the seeds in
rows a>out two inches below the soil.
Cover in and we'll firm the soil, and, our
word for it, there will be no trouble
raising sweet briar plants.
Those having but few seeds and the
convenience of a greenhouse may SOW in
pots at once, and they will come all
RICH in the spring, when they may be
planted out of doors.
This charming sweet-scented plant is
not half enough grown. The fragrance
that distills from the leaves on a moist
summer evening is delightful, and an old
Renaissance of ours. 1t is also beauti-
full object when flower, to say nothing
of its orange-scarlet fruit in the fall and
early winter. Prairie Farmer.

TRANSATLANTIC ONIONS.

Raising large onions by transplanting
the small seedlings has lately been rec
commended as new and improved
method, writes a Kansas doctor. While
this plan has not generally been adopted,
it has been my custom for thirty years,
where l grew from the seed, to trans
plant. The onion has so much vitality
that it is real pleasure to see the little
thing straighten up and grow on. L
transplant any time after they get to the
size of small wheat straw. 1t is al
most impossible to SOW onion seed with
out getting it many times too thick; and
one hand will transplant as much ground
as two hands will thin out if they do it
properly.-Americ11a Agricmturlst.

Liable to it from becoming chilled after
sweating. The prominent symptoms OF
catarrh are chill, tremors, in cattle arched
back, dullness, dry nose, tender spine,
hot ears and horns at the roots; the pulse
is more rapid than natural, and the
breathing quickened; then follows cough
and mucous secretion, as seen in the
ewes and nose, at first thin and watery,
becoming thicker and yellowish; the eye
lids look swollen and puffy; the visible
mucous membranes are redder, and a
tenacious discharge soon becomes more
or less abundant. All the signs of weak
ness become more manifest-dullness
fever, mucous discharge, rough coat, loss
of appetite, constipation, loss of flesh, or
in the mich COW, great decrease of milk.
Horses cough more than cattle because
they are compelled to exercise moro.
Fowl sneeze and look dull. The mex
perienced call simple catarrh roup. But
simple catarrh or cold in not roup, but
if neglected it may become contagious.
The treatment is simple, and may be
summed up in good. nursing. Good nursing
may be shown by placing the animals af-
ficted in dry, warm, well-ventllated
shelter Cattle aud horses should be
blanketed and given warm faxseed tea,
in which a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits
of ammonia or an ounce of sweet spirits
of inter is mixed night and morning. Six
ounces of linseed oil may be given to
cattle, and to horses small ball of aloes.
Pigs may have the faxseed tea in milk in
which half of the quantity of either of the
spirits above advised may be given. Stables,
pens and hen houses should be kept clean.
The diet should consist of bran mashes,
cruel linseed tea and boiled roots-beets,
mangels, carrots or potatoes. For fowls,
- ie bread soaked in hot milk, in which
d teaspoonful of red pepper is mixed,
should be given night and morning.

HOW TO sUBDUE WEEDS.

One important point in keeping farm
clear from weeds is to see that these
germs are not imported in purchased
seeds. Weeds are often introduced by
the farmer own animals. Horses that
have been fed at the town stables, and
cattle that have been allowed to forage
on the highways, may each be the mean
Of bringing obnoxious weeds onto the
farm. For the hoed crops clean cultiva-
ton is the antidote. Cut the weeds Oft
at the surface Of the ground at time when
they are at their best, that is at the time
of Towering, and before the seed has
grown sufficient to terminate. This is
the best method of dealing with seeds
where they have become a pest in
meadows and pastures. In the latter
sheep are very efficient weed destroyers
as they will browse closely many varieties
that cattle will not touch.
In some countries it is said there are
fields entirely free from weeds, owing to
very high cultivation and careful selec-
ton Of seeds and manures. Such results
are not to be expected in this country,
and we shall continue to have weeds as
heretofore, but they can be kept in such
subsection as to reduce their injurious
effects to a minimum. Where they serve
no better use, they at least give evidence
of the soils fertility. Unless rich ground
is closely covered with useful plants it is
quite certain to produce weeds. Nothing
surpasses clover for smothering weeds
If sown thickly, and stock is kept of
from it after tne moving, so that some
of the seed from the second crop will be
scattered, it will gain complete posses
sion of the field, to the exclusion Of
weeds.-Ncos York World.

Examples or Long Lite.

The recent death of George Bancroft
IN his seventy-first year, and the con-
tinued prominence and activity of Won
Moltke in Germany at the age of ninety,
and Gladstone in Great Britain at the
age of eighty-one, recalls other examples
of long life. Lophocles was ninety years
old when he was summoned before the
board having control of the dramatic
performances at Athens on the charge
that his intellectual faculties had de-
cayed. His triumphant answer was the
reading there and then his just completed
and greatest tragedy, "Edipus at Colo
nus"
An esteemed contemporary gives the
following list of nonogenarians and CEN
tenarians: Isecrates, the "old man elo-
ouent,'' was ninety-six when he wrote his
celebrated ''Panegvric" Grafton, and he
lived to be over 100. GOrgias, the
famous sophist, died at 1O6. Hierony-
mus, the historian lived to be 104, with
out any loss of mental energy. Zenoph-
anes wrote his memorable elegy at ninety
two. Theophrastus composed his ''Char-
acters" at ninety-nine. Agathocles,
tyrant of Syracuse, kept firm grasp on
on that city until he died at the age of
ninety five.
Passing to the Romans, we find that
Juvenal died at 100; that, according to
Pliny, Lucia, the comic actress, acted on
the stage when a centenarian, and that
M Valerian Corvus was in full possession
of his faculties when he died in his one
hundredth year. Coming to relatively
modern times, we note that the pencil
fell from the hand of the immortal
Titan only when he was smitten by the
plague at the age of nearly 100; and that
no diminution of Michael Angeles i'm
agiDative capacity was observable at the
age of ninety-five.
We might add that similar instances
are on record in ancient and modern
French and English history; while
Whittier and Oliver Wendell Holmes, in
America, are already walking close in
the steps of George Bancroft.-St. Louis

ticed. Poultry are equally liable to
colds. After the fever and dizziness the
cough is the most prominent sign of all
nent. To the professional man and to
the more close observer the mucous
membrane of the eyes and nose are seen
to be red. The eye weeps and the
''nose runs" The tendency of irritation
of the mucous membranes is to pass
downward. When it reaches the fauces
it is commonly called sore throat; on
reaching the larynx it is termed laryn-
gifts; so, also, on its descent into the
bronchial tubes through which the air
reaches the lungs it is termed bronchitis.
Catarrh, or cold, is far more common in
the damp, cool seasons of the spring and
fall. The causes usually are damp, cold,
checked perspiration or contagion.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Use eggs of good size for setting.
Generally, all fowls that feather slowly
are hardy.
Ducks are more free from vermin than
other fowls.
Many poultrymen believe in portable
poultry houses.
The very best products of the farm
have the least competition.
The far West has We'd with the South
in sending watermelons to the Northern
markets this year.
A wild fighting hen should never be
kept for Matching, as she will rarely prove
as mother.
Farm work is hard work, but who can
take leisure day and feel it less in his
business than the farmer?
AS soon as an animal is matured it
ceases to be profitable to keep, unless it
is work animal and possibly sheep.
Do not expect any farm animal to
''pick up" it's living. It you do it need
not surprise you if the crows should pick
it's bones.
Beef or pork cracklings, mixed with
cornmeal or wheat bran and baked,
makes an excellent feed for poultry of
all kinds.
Pigs must be kept constantly thriving
to do we'll and maintain health. This
can be done by giving them plenty of
good food.
For general farm fowl there is moth
ing that will excel the Plymouth Rock
chicken when both eggs and table fowl
are desired.
Trees for planting that have been dug
and properly cared for will grow the
better for being planted after the soil has
become dry and warm.
Never use long, gangling, overgrown
rooster for breeding. It is nearly i'm
possible to fill them up and they never
make good table fowl.
The little chickens that are kept in
the breeders should be watered regularly.
Give them what they will drink without
getting themselves wet.
Geese can be picked regularly every
six weeks after the first of May, and the
feathers secured will pay we'll for the
trouble of keeping them.
An expert says the Florida phos-
pilates, though immense in extent, are
disappointing as to richness, and the
proportion of high grades is exceedingly
small.
The future of dairying must be in the
line of perfection. Every man must feel
that upon him personally depends the
perfectness of the methods that are tt
prevail.
The theory that good apples can not
| be grown in the South seems to be
| disproven. Apples ten and twelve
inches in circumference are raised as
far toward the equator as Southern
| Florida.
Be on the lookout for feather eating
hens. If bird shows any signs OF
being plucked, watch until you de-
tect the offender; then the best anc
easiest way to settle the trouble is tc
fatten and eat her.
| If the milk has s'cowy" odor it is be
cause you have got manure in it; that al
ways makes very "cowy'' odor. The
remedy is to keep the milk and tn

out.
