Mr.. Frank Huffman, young man of
Burlington, Ohio, states that he had
been under the care of two prominent
physicians, and used their treatment

They pronounced his case to be Con-
sumption and incurable. He was per-
suaded to try DR.. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds and
at that time was not able to walk across
the street without resting. He found,

RUSSIAN IMMIGRANTS.

Thirty Of Them Held at the New York
Detention Bureau Because Assisted"
Thirty immigrants, all Russian Jews,
are on the detention bureau at the
Barge Office awaiting the decision of
the superintendent of emigration. 1t is
most probable that they viii all be sent
back, as each one has been "as-
sisted" and the law on assist
ed emigrants' is inexorable.
One Of the detained emigrants,
Mendel Rogalski. a young man of 90, q
carpenter by trade, tells most thrill
ing story of his own adventures and
sufferings in Russia. He became a sus-
pect while working at his trade in Riga,
and to escape Siberia, which was un-
bearable, he fed from city to city, pur-
sued constantly. He was finally taken
prisoner, beaten and treated most
inhumanely and prepared for ST.
IBERIA, when he again managed
to escape. He succeeded in
reaching the frontier, and by the assist
ance of his countrymen was sent to
Hamburg Here he was further assist
ed and left for America. He has no
money, having been robbed Of his little
savings for six years when he was talk
en- prisoner in Russia, and he says If he
is caught again in that country he will
be put to death. The Jewish societies
have taken hold of his case,

6al0onists OF an Ohio village Attack q
Preacher and Wife.
The other night mob in sympathy
with the saloons visited Rev. Reiden-
gers residence, at North Ridgeville,
near Findlay, O., after he and his wife
had retired, and bombarded the house
with powders and brick-bats, caving
in the windows of the lower portion of
the house and otherwise defacing the
property. Several of the bowlders land
ed on the bed where the reverend gentle
man and his wife were accustomed to
sleep, but on this particular night, very
fortunately as it proves, they had re-
tired in an upstairs room. Had they
been down stairs the results might
have been serious. Mr.. Reidenger had
been preaching very strongly in favor
of temperance, which is presumably
the cause of the outbreak. The tenn
perance citizens of the town have Or
ganized for the protection Of the minis
ter, and strong times are expected in
the village.

DELAYS Are Dangerous.

There are those who are morbidly
anxious about their health, watching
every symptom and dosing themselves
on the slightest provocation. There are
others who never give the matter a
thought, but permit real symptoms to
lapse into certainties of disease. Between
these two extremes the wise man steers
never unduly anxious, and yet not
permitting genuine symptoms to de-
velop. He knows that delays are
dangerous, and he knows, moreover,
that the medicine most likely to be ef-
fective is that which goes straight to the
seats of disease, and tones up the digest
i've organs, strengthens the system and
purifies the blood. He takes few doses
of S. s. s., and soon finds that all the
symptoms have disappeared, and that
he is in better condition than ever.
The great vegetable remedy has no rival.

Cotton-Seed Meal for Cows.

Henry Morse. of Delaware County,
n. Y, who has become wealthy by
dairying. says that he has fed cotton
seed meal to his cows for eight years,
the first four in connection with other
grains and after that pure, except while
the cows were dry and on coarse fod-
der they were given wheat bran and
such grain as was produced on the
farm. As soon as the cows came in
full milk they were given hay twice a
day and three quarts of cottOn-seed
meal in the morning and two quarts at
night. The morning ration of meal
was mixed with six quarts of sweet,
SKINNED milk. When at pasture they
received two quarts of meal day.
Following this practice he was able TO
keep % per cent. more cows and make
25 per cent. more butter per cow than
by any other grain method. The ma
nure from the cows fed so heavily on
cottOn-seed meal was very rich and
gave about double the crops of hay
that other naanures gave. The pastures
also show it. and the increased value of
the manure nearly pays for the cotton
seed meal-N. E. Homestead.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS.
LIVESTOCK NOTES.

GROOMING is as healthful in the winter
as in summer.
WARM the bits before putting them
into the horses mouths.
HORSES should be turned out for exer-
else every pleasant day.
To GET the best results handling and
training should begin when the colt is
very young.
KEEPING the horses heels and legs
clean in the winter is the best proven
tive for scratches.
STANDING in wet manure tends to
make the feet of the horse tender. Keep
the stable clean.
IT is generally best to keep one team
well shod during the winter to use on
the road when slippery.
COLTS will make better growth and
development if they are given light
feed of ground oats every day.
CHANGE the feed often enough to keep
all stock with good appetites. They
will thrive better on less feed.
If you have the right kind of horses
the buyer will come after them: if the
wrong kind you will have to hunt a
buyer.
SOME people who give the cattle the
best of care neglect the hogs. The hog
will repay good care as well as other
kinds of stock.
GUARD against constipation in swine.
The fat forming foods tend to produce
costiveness. The opposite kinds of food
tend to prevent it.
They are just as delicate as the eyes of
human beings. People often work
around stock very carelessly with forks.
THE swine breeder who feeds oil meal
occasionally will not regret it. 1t is a
tonic and regulator of the bowels.
Care should be taken not to feed too
much.
GROOMING is a cheap way of improv-
ing the condition of the horse. 1t can
be done at the simple cost of curry
comb and brush and the expenditure of
little elbow grease which will never
be missed.
ALWAYS remember that a hog is a
hog, and consequently, as the animal
has no judgment about eating, you
must exercise Judgment for it. Better
let the animal 60 little hungry than
to feed it beyond its capacity to utilize
the food.
THE manure of the pig pen is very
valuable. One writer estimates the
value of pigs manure at a dollar and
forty-two cents for every one hundred
pounds from the time of birth to time of
Strengthening. There is no better man
ure for roots
