Many such men would do well to let
their wives direct the affairs Of the
farm. How often have we seen an
enterprising widow make the farm
pay better than her husband did. Elk
ecutive ability is not confined to
men, by any means. / know plenty
of women who have more practical
common sense in a minute than
their incapable husbands will have
in lifetime. Such women should
hold the tiller and guide the agricul-
tural ship, and many of them would
if their stupid husbands would let
them, Had they full control of
things, there would be far less monOt>
ony in farm life. They would supply
both the spice of variety and the su-
gar of sweet contentment to the boys
and girls of the HOUSEHOLD.
Woman's power and influence are
becoming more manifest each year,
and also more freely admitted by
men-sensible men, l mean-and as
good sense and reason are bound to
triumph in the end, woman is des-
tined to occupy an important place
in our agricultural as well as domes-
tic affairs. See if she doesn't!

strawberry beds. l agree with him
generally, that the old bed should be
plowed down, not from our inability
to make another good, cheap and
paying crop from it, but from ,he
known indisposition of nine out of
every ten non-professional growers
to give it any care whatever. My
own practice, and that of some of our
best growers, gives very satisfactory
and profitable returns.
We grow berries in matted rows
four feet asunder. When the crop is
gathered, we use Il disc or getaway
harrow, well loaded and set with line
Of draft, cutting through mulch,
leaves and runners. A shovel plOw
then opens the middle, and if the
ground is hard it is repeated. A one
horse subsoiler follows twice in each
middle. A bow plow now fills the
center, leaving a strip of plants nine
to twelve inches wide. The subsoiler
follows, leaving the entire middle
thoroughly loosened to a depth of
from twelve to sixteen inches. The
tooth harrow and drag are next used,
until the surface is perfectly smooth.
This completes the work, and moth
ing further is done until the plants
receive their winter covering.
Beds so treated quickly make new
leaves, and in month compare
favorably with spring-set fields. The
fresh stirred earth being filled with
mulch, leaves, runners, etc., does not
Immediately favor grass growth.
With lengthening days the runners
push vigorously and find surface
admirably adapted for rapid develop.
meut, and generally entirely free OF
grass or weeds.
The second crop of some kinds,
notably Cumberland, Sharpless and
Jersey Queen, is better than the first,
and most varieties yield abundantly
The fruit is earlier, firmer, more
brilliant in color, but average not
quite so large. In Kentucky the pas
season was very warm and wet, while
Strawberries were marketed. The
old beds under such conditions gave
better returns than those bearing
their first crop. The fruit on new
beds, while very fine in size, was ST
soft and prone to decay that growers
for shipping market realized very
unsatisfactory returns. Those witt
well prepared old beds did materially
better.
From long experience with straw
berries and much wider observation
of the practice of others, | would say
that the advice of Me-. Dow is correct
The average old bed does not pay
lis fruit is a clog to the general mar
ket, and it would be better to plan
anew each year. But for those whC
have time and are equipped for per
feet work and do it, a second crop i
very satisfactory.

About Hogs.
Texas Farm and Ranch.

Texas Farm and Ranch.
Hogs will bring better prices next
year. Mark that.
Pork is the cheapest meat to raise
and the dearest to buy.
Hogs are the only domestic ami
NAL raised for food alone.
The best pork and the cheapest is
made from hogs that have never
been wintered. This excludes the
razor-back, whose occupation is gone.
When the devil entered into the
swine, and "they ran down a steep
place into the see, 1.-THE nce.breaking
SOW escaped-with all the devils.
Who ever heard of a person starv-
ing to death on diet of fat pork and
turnips? and yet scientists tell us that
there is very little nutriment in either
Of these substances.
Old sows are best for breeders. The
too common custom of breeding from
immature females tends to degener.
acy, and often gives more than one
runt to a small litter.
One advantage in raising hogs is
that they square up with the farmer
sooner than any other stock. Coco
ones are never in debt to their owner
for more than a year.
The health of hogs, as of men, de-
ponds in large measure on theil
surroundings. Given wholesome
food, clean and comfortable quarter:
and the probabilities are largely in
favor of good health and physical
thrift.
Hogs are not as filthy in theil
habits as they are represented, while
their keepers are more so. A well
bred hog will prefer clean food anC
drink every time if he has an oppor,
tunity. Their motto is: Clean if pos
sible, but beggars are not choOsers.
The hog-pen is a nuisance tina
ought to be abolished. A small pas
ture of green food, containing com
Portable shelter and convenience TO
feeding and watering, should be pro
vided, then hogs will be healthy
have good appetites and good diges
ton, and that is all they want.

Complicated Condition of Affairs.

WILLIMANTIC, Oct 10.-An interesting divorce case was defended in the su- perior court here this week. On the docket the case was known as Bronson vs Bronson. The principals were well known Eagleville people having been married there about ten years ago. Mrs Bronson said she could not live with her husband owing to his cruel treat ment. Bronson went away and took his children with him. A short time after report was received here from a small Rhode Island town stating that Bronson had died. Mrs Bronson soon afterwards married another Eagleville man and few months after she was startled by the news that her husband had returned to Eagleville. She imme- diately left No 3 and has not seen him since. She brought suit for divorce from her first husband and it was granted on the ground of desertion. It is understood that Bronson is in jail in Springfield, Mass, serving a term for theft

ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT.
A Windsor Locks Boy Shot in the Leg
 By Hunter.

A Windsor Locks Boy Shot in the Leg
 By Hunter.
 Martin Nolan, a boy 12 years old, while walking on the railroad track half a mile above Windsor Locks yester- day, was shot in the leg. A rifle ball made the wound, which was within half an inch of the main artery. There was nobody in sight at the time of the shooting and it is probable that it was a spent ball from hunter in the woods. c. R. Johnson of Moosup, while saw ing wood with his machine last Tuesday, lost a valuable horse. The horse was harnessed to the machine while turning the saw. The brake gave way and in confusion the animal kicked away the movable platform, letting him down so that one leg was nearly sawed off. There twenty-five minutes before the horse could be killed, by having his throat cut. The horse was valued at $250. A 7 year old son of Levi HawIey of Winsted was run over by wagon last evening and is supposed to be fatally injured.
 John O'Neil, aged 19, was taken to the New Haven hospital about 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon, suffering from the results of a fall from a chestnut tree in Whitneyville. He sus- l tained severe fracture of the spine, but the doctors think he will recover, as paralysis has not set in.
 Edward Griswold of New Britain, who with other worknen were engaged in cementing the steeple of Christ church at Guilford, fell from the near top of the spire yesterday and fractured his jaw. He was taken to a hotel where Dr Reynolds attended him. Tie doctor fears that Griswold is injured internally and says that his condition is serious.
 John s. Parsons, who is crippled for life in consequence of having broken a leg by fall, has brought suit for $15, 900 against Dr George A. Jarvis of Hart ford and Dr B. c. King of Unionville, alleging that his leg was not properly set.
 Michael Snedick, aged 55, living at Gildersleeve, and employed at the Brai , nard quarries in Portland, fell into pit day, distance oe fifty feet. He landed on his head and was instantly killed. He leaves a wife and several children.
 . A brood mare from whose stall John Edgerton of West Hartford was taking 8 colt Thursday, seized MT Edgerton's face with her teeth tearing out a piece ot flesh from the eye to the ear.

A meeting of the democratic nominees at the recent election and the committee of twenty appointed to aid the town committee will be held in the city clerks office at 8 o'clock this evening.
 A couple giving the names of Andrew Johnson and Esther Asmussen, called at the town clerks office this afternoon and stated that they wanted to be married right away quick. They came from Denmark six months ago, had been favored by fortune and decided this forenoon to become united for better or worse. They wanted the ceremony performed without the usual frills and at the least possible expense. Town Clerk Madden made out the i cense and Attorney B. J. Smith per. formed the ceremony in a very digni fled manner. The town clerk and City 1 Sheriff Mcdonald were the witnesses.

 More than a month ago the American shook off it's lethargy and made a head foremost dive into the water question. It said:
 "People will be surprised to learn that Mad river is not inexhaustible, that for many weeks the factories which use from it have been more or less embar rassed for lack of water and that to-day the plating department of Rogers & Brother has been compelled to shut down owing to complete failure of the supply. The system of reservoirs which has been built to store water for the use of these factories during the dry spell have been drawn on freely to supply the enormous demands of the pump, so that now there is believed to be so little at Chestnut hill, Cedar swamp and at the Lilley brook that in weeks time there will be nothing but the daily flow to supply the needs until the heavy winter rains come on."
 A false prophet, truly. The dire calamity predicted has not come to pass. Indeed the river shows no signs of weakening notwithstanding the heavy and steady strain upon it. In regard to the shutting down of the Rogers plating mill, spoken of above, a gentleman who is in position to know, explains that the temporary loss of water was due to the closing of the sluice gates at the head waters of the river while repairs were being made at the pumping station. Now then, let us have the next scare.
 The temporary injunction secured by John Shanahan retaining the city from encroaching upon his land at the inter section of Bank and South Riverside streets and the New York 6 New Eng land lroad, effectually blocks the pro- posed improvements at that point, and the property owners of Brooklyn are again on the anxious seat. For nearly eight years the opening of Burnham pie. Finally the court decreed that the street should be opened and bridged that Bank street should be bridged anc the South Riverside street grade crossing abolished. Benefits and damages were assessed and than a recess was taken It was finally decided to proceed witl the work, but the forty foot bridge a at Bank street, ordered by the court was objected to by people living on tE' Brooklyn side of the track. At last, ,afte Mayor Baldwin had thoroughly ventilat ed the matter before the road board anc the courG of common council, contrac was entered into between the city anC the New England Go, by which tn bridge would have forty eight foo span. At this point the injunction wa secured. Nearly everyone admits tha MT Shanahan has a good case and vii eventually be allowed more for hi property than the amount fixed by tn board of compensation two years age Indeed, I have heard that at least on member of the board admits that tn property has increased in valuation sine it was appraised. On the other hand is said that MT Shanahan is willing t compromise with the city. If such b the case, by all means let there be
 cessation of hostilities. Time is none and the sooner the proposed work completed the better.

Not Enough Cells to Accommodate all
 of the Prisoners.
 There are now 291 inmates of the New Haven county jail, including 43 women. On June 1, when Jailer William O'Keefe assumed charge, there were only 1S4 prisoners. There are only 150 cells for men, so that in several cells it is necessary to put two men. The 43 women are lodged in only 29 cells. Should a workhouse be established, the jail would be considerably relieved. But unless some some such arrangement is made, with the constant increase of prisoners, an enlargement of the build ing would seem to be necessary ere many years. The commissioners realize this fact and may have to seriously con- sider the scheme of enlargement soon.

Died From Heart Disease.

NEW HAVEN, Oct 10.-The dead body of Joseph Zagoski, a Russian, was brought to his brothers house in New Haven this morning. He died of heart disease while at work in Clinton yester- day. He was employed as section hand on the Shore Line division of the Consolidated road and was carrying a stone when he suddenly fell on the ground. Dr Reynolds was summoned but the man died in few minutes. He was 25 years of age.
