A WOman's Awful Deed.

A day or two ago tough looking
man and woman entered q New
York City shoe store and asked for
cheap shoes for the man. He tried
on pair of shoes, bat demurred at
paying the price-ffty cents for
thom, and started out with the shoes
in his hand. Levy interfered, and
vas promptly knocked down. The
woman grasped q sharp shoe knife
from bench, and as the men wres-
led. followed them about, waiting
chance 10 pluag, iitinto Levy, When
he had been firmly pinned to the
floor in The grasp of the thug, she
crouched over him, and with fiendish
glee tauntingly waved the knife be
fore his face. Then she pressed the
blade against the struggling victim S
left breast. As she pushed the steel
harder and harder against the man S
clothes, and then gradually through
his flesh, she ieered and taunted him
about his pain. ''Does it hurt!" she
leeringly asked. AS Levy writhed
in agony, she scornfuIly said; Then
it hurts to be killed, does it" Tiring
at last of her inhuman sport, she
raised the knife and with both hands
plunged it all the way into the man s
breast.
Withdrawing the blood-stained in
strument of death, she tossed it into

An Alleged Cure for Milk Fever.

The number of fine cows that die
each year with milk fever has grown to
be something appalling. An English
writer claims to have had success by
leaving portion of the milk, at each
milking, in the udder several days after
calving. The excess of pressure is taken
off and the strain relieved so as to re-
move all apprehension of garget. The
calf might do this if he could be de-
pended upon to draw an equal amount
from each teat but this is not usually the
case, full supply being drawn from the
first convenient teat that will furnish it,
the others being left full, must be at
tended to by hand. Cows in their wild
state were not subject to milk fever,
neither are those that are domesticated
that are of small and inferior milking
properties. Nature, it would seem,
guarded against danger through the
necessities and actions of the young calf,
whose periodical musings kept the udder
and the system of the dam in just the
right condition, so that the secretion of
milk rapidly or with violence, to supply
the deficiency, was altogether avoided.

Hygiene of the Orchard.

1t is safe rule, whenever crop is
gathered, to clear off the remnants and
destroy them as completely as possible.
Every dead branch and twig should be
cut and with the other rubbish, hauled
out and burned. The ashes will make a
good fertilizer. Rubbish is never a
source of advantage and may be the
exact contrary in many instances.
Never leave an old wood pile in or near
an orchard, especially if the wood is OF
the same kind as the orchard trees
Fallen fruit should always be destroyed.
Were this Systematically done, there
would soon be no further complaint OF
curculio and less of codling moth. The
fruit should be fed to hogs, buried

ABAN DONED FARMS.
The Why and Wherefore-The Farms are
not WOrthlesslbut are Cheap.
IGFrom Grange Honest

The Why and Wherefore-The Farms are
not worthlesslbut are Cheap.
I[From Grange Honest
1t is true that abandoned farms are
generally worthless. 1t is not difficult
to find farmers making money, prosper
Gus and contented, living on farms no
better than most abandoned ones. This
is true of Vermont where the writer has
lived and farmed.
A farmer died and leaves his farm to
his heirs; in many cases not one of his
heirs is farmer; the farm is offered for
sale but no buyer appears. Another
farmer becomes superannuated, he can
no longer do the work required to till his
farm; he offers it for sale but it is not
sold he does the best he can but finally
abandons it. Another man has heavy
mortgage on his farm, he bought it on
credit, did the best he could to pay for it
but interest money and large family
made it impossible to pay for it and it
falls into the hands of the mortgage.
He does not want it and does not know
what to do with it and it soon becomes
an abandoned farm.
If these farms are good, why cannot
purchasers be found? There are several
causes. immigration does not come to
Vermont but flows steadily west. The
increase of population is not enough to
meet the want because only few of the
sons OF farmers stay at home and till the
paternal acres. As a sample of what
some Of these farms are l will refer to
one on which one of my neighbors lived.
He paid $4,000 for the farm paid down
$1,000, gave a mortgage for the re-
mainder. He tried hard to pay first but
his family must be supported, interest
must be paid, then depreciation of real
estate reduced the value of the farm to
less than the mortgage. The owner ad-
vanced in years, left the farm to the
MORTGAGE. The farm is now owned by
by business man of Boston. This farm
of good soil, within half mile of good
creamery, capable of keeping ten cows
and other neat stock plenty of hard and
soft timber, large sugar orchard, few
stones, near mills, stores and churches,
remains abandoned. There are many
good farms in Vermont a man could pur-
chase at much less than the building
cost. No man need buy an abandoned
one, as there are wealthy farmers who
have several farms on hand which they
bought cheap and will sell cheap. A
good living and more can be made On
these farms. A young man who is not
afraid to work, possess d of few hun
dred dollars can invest it to good advan-
tage in Vermont.

Drinking Cold Water in Winter.
from Mirror and Farmer. ]

Farmers are slowly learning the folly
of turning stock out for water in the
storms and cold of our severe winters
The lesson was forced upon me by not
getting we'll dug as had planned in
the fall. Having well in an adjoining
building the cattle were watered in the
barn and have been ever since. 1t is
cruel to drive COWS out in winter, and
they must be driven out for they will
suffer before they will leave warm
quarters for the water they need, neither
will they drink when out as much as
they would if they were comfortable and
the water of the right temperature.
When they return they are cold, and
their once warm quarters have also be-
come chilled by the opening of doors,
and much time and feed is required to
restore the loss of heat. In warm sunny
days let my cattle out when it is a
pleasure to them.

LOVED THE LIGHT.
Five Years in Coal Shaft She Thought
Was Enough


Was Enough.
In parts of Missouri nothing is COM
moner in out-of- the-way places than q
solitary 'scoal shaft says the Youths
Companion. In one of these remote
mines there was kept, hundred feet be.
low the surface, little old mule, whose
business it was to draw the loaded cars
up the inclined plane to the foot of the
shaft. Back and forth, back and forth
it made its dismal journeys during work
ing hours, and at night was left alone
in corner fitted up as stable, to await
in the silence and utter darkness the re-
turn of its human comrades. For five
long years it had never breathed the up
per air, or seen the light of day. 1t was
great pet with the miners, who used to
bring it punches of fresh grass in sum-
mer or Jumps of sugar and apples in
winter. One night, when the mule was
being embarrassed, some one proposed
taking ''Jinny" up in the cage. 1t was
done; her tremor as the cage began to
ascend were soothed by the assuring
words and caresses of her companions,
and soon she found herself restored to a
mules natural privileges. The next
morning when the time came to 60 to
work ''Jinny" positively refused to re-
turn. Neither persuasion nor threats
could induce her to approach the shaft
and step into the waiting cage. A coun-
Gil was held. The miners, touched by
what the poor brute had suffered in her
five years of isolation, and reproaching
themselves that her imprisonment had
been so long, at length solved the prob.

loosed and sturned to grass" For years
afterward she could be seen nibbling the
grass near the shaft, or sheltering her
self behind liberal haystack that some
how was always there for her. Wher
working hours were over she was sure
to be near the shaft, where she coulc
mutely testify to her liberators as they
came up, that she was the happiest mule
in Missouri.

being also aired, go quickly to the bad.
1t is also fact that milk as soon as
drawn, if cooled down few degrees, by
forcing a current of air through it, will
have its "life" prolonged for hours long
er than similar milk under the same
conditions, but not submitted to the oXy-
genizing of the air, though it seems a
paradox to say that milk-souring is re-
suit of contact from the air and that the
aeration of milk prolongs its keeping
qualities.
