No other one cause produces sore
shoulders SO quickly as heavy load
and rough road, with continual jerk
ing of the neck yoke from side TO side
as the four wheels OF the wagon drop
into ruts- The jerking caused by rrts
and sharp, heavy pulls is fruitful source
of strains and spr2ins with their accom-
panying evils OF ringbones, spavins
and curbs, especially In horses predis-
posed to these ailments. In horses of
nervous temperament, the continual
wrenching upon rough roads causes
fretting, and what is true of man
''fretting and worry pull an individual
down faster than works equally
true of horse.
The best horse for the better roads
we hope to have must depend upon the
use to which the horse is to be put II
for road work entirely, there IS no bet
ter horse than the American trotter.
He has the ability to get over the
ground fast, and the stamina to stay at
it long time. But fer farmers, those
who will use the roads the most, a
horse that has more weight is required
Medium-sized men on an average will
do more work with greater ease than
very large or very small men, and
usually have better constitutions. If
large horses are desired they should be
active. A big horse without action Is
of little use on the farm.
1t costs no more to raise a good horse
than a poor one; and a poor, weak,
slow horse is dear at any price. The
extra time required by poor horse to
do inferior work, soon amounts to a
good deal, not counting the wear and
tear" on the patience or pride of the
man who works him. When farmers
and stockmen relinquish the idea that
any mare that will breed. no matter
how many ringbones, spavins or other
ailments she has, is good enough to
raise a colt; when they pay as much at
tention to selection of dam as of sire,
since it is just as important, better
horses, freer from common lameness,
that bane of horsedeSh, and more eco
nomical in every way, will result-In-

EancIl Butter.

Rancidity Of butter is caused by a
chemical change of the butyr.c acid of
the butter into other acids OF different
character. These acids are volatile,
and give off their scent very readily,
hence the strong scent of bad butter.
They may be partly removed by wash
ing the butter in water in which some
saltpeter has been dissolved, and then
in clear water, and by repacking with
ounces OF white sugar and one ounce Of
saltpeter. finely powdered. TO six pounds
of butter-Farmers' Voice.

proportion recorded since 1873, when
six were killed. The number Of pas
sengers injured in accidents during the

accidents, a much higher proportion.
The list of passengers killed and in

OLD TIME RAIlROADERS.
One Of Them Has Reen In Harness Rvsi
Since 1880.

Christopher Smith. who lives on
Maryland heights, opposite Harper's
ferry, is the oldest living locomotive en-
gineer on the continent, says the Balti-
more Sun. The next oldest is Joseph
York, of Meadville, Pa. Samuel Double
day is the oldest living employee of the
Baltimore 81 Ohio and William Ijams
the next oldest Doubleday was the
first fnisher ever employed in a railroad
shop in the country, and entered the
Baltimore & Ohio service in 1880. Ijams
was not long after him, and was the
first blacksmith in the cbmpany's en-
ploy. Doubleday subsequently, became
supernt endent of the Wipap shops and
Ijams foreman of the Winan smith
shops. The former is eighty-two and
the latter eighty-six years of age Chris
topher Smith began with the Baltimore
& Ohio in 1881 as driver, when there
was no steam power on the road, and in
1858 was fireman on the Traveller, the
third locomotive placed upon the road,
and year later became the engineer of
the John Quincy Adams, one Of the
earliest of the grasshopper engines. He
was an engineer two years before Ca
laway, the veteran Baltimore g. Ohio
engineer, who died a year ago. Smith
is over eighty years of age, and was for
nearly if not quite full half century
in the Baltimore d Ohio service. He is
hale and hearty man for his extreme
age and bears a striking resemblance 10
the later portraits of Washington. York
became Baltimore e. Ohio man in 1895,
acting as a fireman upon one of the
grasshoppers, and in a short time was
running her as engineer. He is the
youngest man of the quartette. being
about seventy-eight, and SO well pre-
served and active as TO be competent
to take train regularly.

Railroad Extension. .

The Crystal Falls Diamond Drill has
the following in regard to the contem-
plated extension of the Milwaukee &
Northern railroad:
1t Is now given out that the company
will extend its line to Crystal Falls and
thence to Sidnaw, in order to complete
q direct line of its own to Houghton
and the copper country. The company
now owns line of railroad extending
from Sidnaw to Ontonagon, or about
half way between Ontonagon and Sa-
COLA. As it now is, M. & N. trains are
run over the d., s. S. &c A. tracks from
Champion to Sidnaw, on the Ontonagon
ronte, while all the traffic to Hancock
and Houghton has to be transferred to
the line of the d.. s. s. & A. road.
Increased traffic on the last named line
has already compelled the M. g. N.
folks to take off one OF their trains and
future prospects for perfect service on
the M. & N. by this arrangement are
not hattering. Hence it is said, the
necessity of making the extension must
inevitably follow. This appears to be
a very plausible reason for the extern
sion and lends more stability to the
rumor than anything that has been yet
reported. It is also stated that if this
extension is made, line from Sidnaw
to Houghton Will also be built complet-
ing the line.

The Mortgage Tax Law.

The supreme court has ordered re-
hearing upon the validity of the new
mortgage law on Tuesday, Feb. 16, and
the arguments are directed to the init
nation mnde by ex-Chief Justice
Champlin in his argument before the
court last week, to the effect that the
bill was not constitutionally passed by
both houses.
This will have to be shown by a COM
parison with the Legislative journal, and
not by parol evidence. 1t is claimed
that this can be easily done, and that if
it be true it would affect the validity of
the entire bill.
The court, in making the order.
suggests that the consideration of this
feature will be demanded sooner or
later, and it had better be settled now.

Rotten Life Insurance.

President Beers, Of the New York
Life Insurance company, caused to be
published in the leading daily papers,
long letter making vain attempt to
explain away the serious charges made
by the insurance commissioner against
the reckless management OF the COM
pany. This letter, instead Of explaining
anything, amounted to confession Of
guilt, and President Beers must have
discovered that he had put his foot in
it," as he shortly after sent his resigna-
nation to the board OF trustees. That
body very magnanimously accepted the
RESIGNATION and voted him pension Of
$37, 800 year for the remainder Of his
life How does this strike the policy hold
ers in the New York Life There should
certainly be some law to protect policy
holders from such raids upon their
treasury, but there apparently is no
remedy.
Such recklesness will surely be fol-
lowed by insolvency and then it will be
discovered that few have enriched
themselves at the expense Of the thou
sands of policy holders who are resting
with the assurance that their families
have been provided for in case they are
taken away by death.
Now comes the news that John A.
Mccall, at present comptroller of the
Equitable Life Assurance society has
accepted the office Of president of the
New York Life Insurance company pro-
vided he be given full control. But he
will not accept it otherwise. BY insist
ing on afull control" it is understood
that Mr.. Mccall refuses to accept the
presidency il Mr.. Beers is allowed any
voice in the company's affairs what
ever.

Northern Minnesota.

We find the following information.
concerning the Rainy River district in
the last issue OF the 500 Tribune, and
its reliability is vouched for:
Fos those desiring to visit that coun-
try at any time, except during the sea-
son of navigation, the best route j.. by
the way OF Tower, from which place
the Old Dawson route to the north
west can be taken, which runs directly
through the center of the tract abort
to be opened for settlement.
During the summer season from
Tower, crossing Ve,million Lake, Gu
noes can be taken and proceeding
down Vermillion river to Ruiry river.
any one OF its many tributaries may be
taken, the interior may be reached
with very little difficulty. Rainy river
is mighty stream, varying in width
from about one fourth to halfa-mile
and nm immense volume of water passes
through it. On both sides are dense
forests of oak, elm, poplar, spruce and
piDe. The soil is rich black muck or
rich loam, with sub-soil OF clay.
About forty mics of Rainy river front
is outside the present Indian reserva-
ton and is open for settlement.
A short distance back from Rainy
river ON its tributaries, are immense
tracts OF white and Norway pine, which
ut present is attracting the attention of
so many people flom all parts of the
country, but particularly from Michi-
gan, Wisconsin and the southern part
of Minnesota. Nearly all the timber
within this territory is tributary TO the
Rainy river and what is cut ut present
must be tioated into Canadian territory,
and there cnt into lumber, ond to pre-
ven. this is one OF the very frivolous
reasons given by the advocates and
promoters of the National Park scheme.
There are seven large saw mills ut
Rat Portage, operating almost entirely
wi Ii American lumber, but little en-
terprise will stop this timber at the
mouth of the Big Forks or ut the mouth
of the Rainy river, and there build up
on the American side manufacturing
towns, that will be supported for years
by this timber, and when this timber is
exhausted, would have country rich
in other resources to support them.
The agricultural resources are of vast
Importance. The fertile soil extends
back from Rainy river distauce vary
ing from twenty to sixty miles, border
ed by the Atikokan and Vermillion
ranges already renowned for their rich
mineral deposits.
There are four steamboats, of about
200 tons burden that ply on Like of the
Woods and RAINY river, between Rat
Portage and Fort Francis and two
small tugs that ply between Fort
Francis and Kettle Falls. The fare
from Sault Ste. Marie to Fort Francis
by way of Rat Port ,ge is $24.75.

Rules Of the Canal,

No. 5 of the new rules Of the Portage
Like Canal, caused more discussion
than all the others, so much that a
Houghton gentleman, Interested, wrote
G. A. Marr, U. $. assistant super nten
dent asking for an Interpretation of the
rule which reads as follows:
"The towing of RATS througl the
canals is strictly prohibited" TO which
the following answer was received.
"Dear Sir:-Yours Of Jan. 29fh is at
hand. In regard to the new Rules and
Regulations for the Portage Lake and
Lake Superior Canals, Rule is to be
interpreted just as it reads as you can
see it is by order of the Secretary OF
War; You will also notice that the word
canals IL plural and it applies to
Portage River as Uell az the Ship Canal.
1t will be my simple dnty to enforce
the same by reporting any violation,
which shall proceed to do"
Yours very espectfully,
G. A. MARR,
U. S. Asst Eng'r.
This rule will work injustice tossome
firms in this vicinity, although not to
all of them.
Mr.. o. w. Robinson, manager of
the Sturgeon River Lumber Co., was
interviewed Ivy a Copper Journal
representative to whom he stated that
the new rule would in no way effect
their business, as their timber all comes
down the Sturgeon iver and does not
have to pass through the canals.
Mr.. Rulison, at the Office of nj. Nor
alec, states that they are situated exact
ly as is the Stargoon River Co, so far
rs the pre- ent year iH concerned. The
parties that will suffer the greatest in
convenience from the rule, if strictly
enforced, will be Jos. Gregory, Of
Lake Linden, and the Nester estate, of
Baraga.
The Copper Journal is informed up
on good authority that at least 20
million feet of logs have been cut this
winter, Which must necessarily pass
through the canals.
1t is stated that Gregory has several
million feet on Keweenaw Bay and the
amount owned by the Nesters which
will be put into Portage Lake, will
have to be cut elsewhere than at their
present mills, unless some arrangement
can be made whereby the Government
will allow them to be towed, under
special permission through the entry.
There is no doubt but that the rule
was brought about by the blockade at
the canal last fall
1t hardly seems possible that the
Government would cripple the indus
tries Of private parties, without making
some provisions for their relief. AS it
now stands the Nesters will he obliged
to tow all of their Ontonagon logs,
which amount to many millions of feet,
around Keweenaw Point, at great ex-
pense, or build mill on the west side
Of the peninsula-Copper Journal.
