A WARNING-DON USE BIG WORDS.
In promulgatng esoteric cogitatlons or
articulating superficial sentimentalities and
philosophical'or psychological observations,
beware of platitudinous ponderosity. Let
your statements possess Il clarified concise
ness, compaoted comprehensibleness, coale-
scent consistency and concentrated cog
ency. Eschew all eonglomerations ofiatulent
garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine af-
fectations. In trying tc impress upon others
the superiority of the Wisconsin Central
Lines, and why you and SO many others use
this thoroughfare from st. Paul and Min
neapolis and Duluth and Ashland to Mil
waukee, Chicago and points east and south,
it is not necessary to use jawhreakers. Let
your extemporaneous descantings and un-
premeditated expatiations have intelligibil-
ity and veracious ylvacity. without rhodo-
montade or thrasonical bombast Sedulously
avoid all polysyllabic profundity. psittace-
ous vacuity, ventriloqual verbosity and van
diloquent vapidity, shun double entendres,
prurient jocosity and pestiferous profanity,
obscurent or apparent. In other words,
talk plainly, naturally, sensibiy. and truth
fully say the Wisconsin Central Lines is
THE route. and that ends it.

Worth Twenty Thousand Dollars to Him

Worth Twenty Thousand Dollars to Him.
|. N. Locke, of Wayne county, Ind,
was formerly an active trader. In May,
1872, he was in Chicago and bought a
lot for a small sum. He put the deed in
an envelope and placed it in his pocket
with other papers. A few days after
ward he lost the envelope and all its
contents. He advertised for it, but real
ly cared only for the notes, thinking the
lot of little value. John Ritchey, a vic
tim of softening of the brain, was wan
dering aimlessly on the street the day
Locke lost his papers. He found them
and laid them away, and even after his
death no notice was taken of the sup
posed worthless papers. A short time
ago John Ritchey found the package
and gave it to Mr.. Locke, and through
his attorney his claim has been estab-
lished. Had the deed remained con-
cealed a few days longer the twenty
years would have expired and no claim
allowable. It is lot in the boulevard
addition. and the parties occupying it
have given Mr.. Locke $4,000 for a quit
claim.-Chicago Letter.

Dairy and Creame cry.

Good butter contains IS per cent. of
pure butter fat.
The new Wisconsin Dairy school grad
yates this year fifteen young gentlemen
who will go out to give their state mon
ey and prestige in the cheese and butter
business But where are the girls? Are
there no Wisconsin young women to
learn this pleasant and paying occupa-
ton?
Heifers that are to come in in the fall
should run with the dairy herd, taking
their places in stalls at feeding time
and receiving their bran rations along
with the rest.
If butter maker handles as much as
400 pounds of milk day he can afford
a cream separator.
Dairy farmers in the northwest report
that they are making money this year
very generally.
Six pounds of butter to the hundred
pounds of milk is a good average.
October and November are the best
butter making months of the year.
Oats and clover are good milk stimu-
lating foods, because of the nitrogen
they contain.
For ensilage, cut the corn in the glaz-
ing stage, oats when the grain is doughy.
The fight between "dishorn" and ode
horn" goes bravely on. A new convert
to 'dehorn" is the gallant editor of
Hoard's Dairyman. who is glad to in
form his readers that Webster's new
international dictionary sanctions this
form.
Good advice: Have the COWS before
you build the creamery.
This fact we commend to farmers and
factories having quantities of milk: The
hot weather season, which is the poorest
time to make butter, is the best time to
make cheese.
Duluth in July is exactly the spot for
q creamerymen's midsummer conven-
ton.

This Office has been favored with COM
pete catalogue and price list of the Ever
green Nurseries. OF Evergreen, Wis. This
nursery is well known throughout the west,
having been many years established. The
proprietor, Mr.. Geo. Pinney, has probably
distributed more evergrecns and forest trees
through this state than any other man in
the country. Although he raises and sells
millions of forest trees annually, his spe
cialty is evergreens. He plants hundreds Of
pounds OF the seeds every year, and now
has nearly three hundred varieties his
lists, fully equalling the largest nurseries
in Europe, which supply the nurseries and
parks of royalty. OF course, having such 4
large trade and growing them in such large
quantities, he is able to give better prices
for the same quality OF trees than any other
nurseryman in the country. 1t is well
worth the while of any person to send for
his lists.

A Church Shed for BICYCLES.

The Center church committee is going
to set aside one of the horse sheds as a
bicycle shed. Not few persons who
attend the Sunday and week night meet
ings ride to and from the church on
bicycles. Now they have to leave their
bicycles outside, where the small boys
tamper with them and where, in case of
sudden shower, the machines would
be injured. The shed will be inclosed
and conveniently arranged for the stor-
age of bicycles. So far as we can learn
the Center church is the first in the
country to provide bicycle she'd

An OK Yoke Punishment.

There is an old farmer out in Jersey
who has as great detestation of hirt-
ing as was ever cherished by the mikado
himself. 1t was q great shock to him
one evening at church when be caught
his fourteen-year- old daughter exchang-
ing glances and smiles with Il neighbor's
son a couple of years older. The old
gentleman unused over the problem all
the way home, and finally hit upon an
expedient which he only awaited the op-
portunity to put into practice.
This was not long in coming. As he
turned a corner of the road the next
day he caught glimpse Of the young
couple ON the road ahead of him, walk
ing along, hand in hand, and even as he
paused, speechless, he saw them ex-
change kiss. That settled it.
With few strides he had overtaken
the culprits and was marching them off
to his barn, which stood in a prominent
position close by the high road. A
shout brought out the hired man, and in
a twinkling the old granger had slipped
an OK bow over his victims heads. Then
he seated them on the doorstep and kept
them there for one mortal hour, calling
the attention of all passers by to ''my
two calves I'm a breakin in."
At the end of the time he released the
prisoners, who made all haste to put as
much distance between each other as
possible.
And now they don't even speak when
they pass by.-New York Recorder.

\ sportsman who went out snipe
shooting one sunday stated chat he
walked twelve miles by the pedomctcr
and shot three snipe and came home
well satisfied, says the Portland
Oregonian. This brought up dis
cussion as TO the reliability of pedomct-
crs and other meters, and their interior
arrangements, etc. Col. Smith, super
intendent Of the water works, SAID
once when he was vunniug a meridian
between the CherokeeS and ChoctawS
they had a sort of go-cart with an
odometcr attached, which was pushed
along over the line run, and which was
SO accurate that if any serious error
was made by the chairmcn it was at
once detected. One day they had TO 20
about twenty miles and two men were
sent to push the odomCter cart over the
line TO test the distance. On arriving
at the end of the days work he was
astOnishcd TO see that the odometer
registered only a little over a mile. In
vcstigation for some time failed TO ac-
count far this miscalculation. The
men asserted that they had gone every
foot of the line and had not tampered
with the machine, but at length it was
found that they had pushed the cart
about half the distance and then
dragged II the rest. and so run down
what they had first run up.
