Fall Flowing for Cutworms.

MIR. w. Fl. Raglan, secretary of the
Indiana Horticultural society, relates
the experience of farmer who took ad-
vantage of some unusual weather in
February to break a piece of clover sod
for corn. When about two-th;rds
through breaking the field, of say ten
acres, the recurrence of more timely
February weather caused him to sus-
pend further operations until in April,
when the other third of the field was
broken and all similarly prepared and
planted. The corn ON that portion
broken in February was n complete
stand, yielding fine crop, while that on
the late broken part was almost wholly
destroyed by utworms-indeed, having
to be replanted entirely, and thus yield
ing only partial crop of late corn and
immature fodder.

About Taxing Dogs.

An Augusta gentlemen declares his In

town or city has right to tax dogs. He
admits they have right to license them,
charging a specific sum for the same; but
when you come to taxing IL Is different.
he says. Taxation should rest as basis
upon the value Of the thing taxed; and
when a uniform tax of one dollar Is put
upon every dog. regardless Of value. 1t Is
altogether illegal, argues this gentleman.
as no attempt is made to fix the valuation
OF the thing taxed, the same amount OF
tax being put upon the worthless cur as
upon dog worth fifty or one hundred dol
lars. It Is likely that the courts will he
called upon to settle the question. which
several of our correspondents have raised
with considerable earnestness. 1t seems
to make people as indignant to tax their
dogs IA it would to kick them.-Lewiston

Altogether the social was novel affair
and a success. Notwithstanding the
inclemency of the weather. The girls
netted twenty dollars as the proceeds,
thirteen dollars of which has already
been invested in new cook stove for
the basement. The remaining seven
will be used towards furnishing the
church. The socials of hate have been
characterized by less stiffness and
formality than formerly hence perhaps
the large attendance. Mr. kilbourne
has social qualities in addition to his
ministerial characteristics that are a
great help in the upbuilding of the
church, and harmony seems to exist
between pastor and people that speaks
well for the prosperity of the church
interests.

JACOB LUTZ HURT.

While Messrs Jacob Lutz & Bro. were
returning from their farm Sunday morn
ing with a team of young horses, Jacob
who was holding them in front of their
business place in the first ward while
his brother David went inside, the
horses became nervous and anxious to
proceed, SHE'D off to one side,
and upset the vehicle throwing Mr..
Jacob Lutz out upon the ground. He
clung to the lines and soon had them
under control. In falling he struck the
wheel and ground with such force that
he received several bad bruises on his
left side. He is confined to his bed
and suffers considerable pain. We
hope he will soon be able to be about
again.

A SMALL FIRE.

1t has been some time since anyone
suffered loss on account of fire, until
Friday last when the residence of Mr..
Moses Stevens was consumed by that
element. The fire caught from the
pipe passing through the shed part of
the house. The strong wind blowing
soon consumed the small house. The
entire contents of the house were saved
by willing hands of the immediate
neighborhood. Unfortunately the house
was not insured so that it is an entire
loss to them. Soon after the fire Mr..
McCann circulated list and raised for
the needy family about $50 in cash
which will assist him i'll replacing his
house. The fire company were willing
to do, but the house was consumed
before hel p reached them. 1t was
located outside the fire limit.

POVERTY PARTY.

One Of the most pleasant events of
the season was the poverty social in the
Cong1 Church parlors last Friday
evening April 1st. To those who went
expecting an April fool joke in the way
of sham doughnuts, vinegar coffee and
"sich like" it was the kind of joke
perpetrated that they thoroughly
enjoyed, to have served most delicious
coffee, mush and milk and the kind of
doughnuts my mother used to make
1t was those boss doughnuts that were
fooled for some of the young men
succeeded in reaching the eighth one
before that inward craving was satisfied.
The entertainment consisting of music
by the Twin City Band, recitations,
tableaus, singing by young ladies of
Mrs. Gardner's class, and laughable
farce entitled 'dioing on the train to
Morrow" was excellent. The Band very
kindly consented to render some of
their popular selections during the
evening and the praise and commen-
dation we have heard in their behalf
for the choice music given, though not
a financial remuneration, must be a
source of qualification and pleasure to
| their leader and to all concerned. The
large audience as we'll as the young
ladies of the class highly enjoyed and
appreciated the music and the class
hereby heartily thank the Band for the
services rendered. The Misses Anna
Parrish and Callie Tenant are ALWAYS
welcome singers in gatherings here.
| The acoustics of the basement are poor
| but the solos sang by these young ladies
under this difficulty were we'll received.
Miss Parrish also gave humorous
recitation of Elder Lambs Donation"
which amused ALL Master Ed DAILY
killed a bar" very well, but had not
given it quite the time necessary to
memoriZe it. In the farce he was very
good indeed as were the others. Miss
Mabel Gardner acted and spoke her
part with spirit and keen sense of the
humor of it. Bluebeard had a genial
smile not in keeping with the blood
thirsty character he persOnated, and
the wife pleading for mercy didn't look
half as frightened as we imagine she
would if even drunken man spoke to
| her on the sidewalk, but then lack of
experience in being murdered or having
a tyrant keeper is excuse enough.
Doubtless by the time the blue beard
grows and changes color, the savage
and murderouS character will develop
/ if seven wives appear on the scene.
/ The poverty stricken costumes Worn by
some of the guests were amusing and
we agree with the judges in saying that
a more poorly clad set we never have
seen. Mrs. O. Dennis, ''in her sphinx
span clean caliker gown" was thought
by many to be worthy of Il prize. \
