Get enough Turkish toweling by the

a large rough towel and generous sup
ply of tepid water, and, of course, soap,
and either another towel to stand on or
piece of oilcloth four feet square.
1t is very important TO have a warm
room, so that the body may not be
chilled when you doff your garments.
After taking everything off, stand on
the oilcloth or towel in front of your
basin, slip your mits on, dip them in the
water, squeeze the drips from the NIT
tens, soap well and rub the body al
over, beginning at the neck and ending
with the toes. Take off the mittens,
lay them down beside your basin; all
the soil of the body will be in those nit
tens. Take your second pair of mittens,
slip them on and go over your body
again, rinsing the mittens several times,
thus: Take the soap off the arms, then
rinse, then to the waist and so forth.
Bathing thus rests and strengthens a
tired body.

to leave little soap on the body; it
counteracts the oil of the skinny slip
off your second pair of mittens and rinse
them out well, then wiring them as dry
as you can and rub the drips off your
body. The damp mitts will not only
dry the body, but it is wonderful the
friction they produce and how they open
the pores of the skin. Then dry with
the aforesaid rough towel, which seems
almost unnecessary, but that last dry
rub gives an afterglow.

Ohio Agricultural Exhibit.

In Bulletin No. /, issued by the
Executive Commissioner and N.Y.
self, the time for closing entries of
grasses, cereals, tobacco and wool
was fixed for June 10, 1892. The
spring is so backward and the
weather has been so unfavorable
for farm work, that few have faith
in the outcome of the crops, and
will be slow to make entries. We
therefore desire to announce that
this date has been cancel led and a
later date will be named later in
the season.
We have mailed the list of pre-
miums to all farmers, truckers and
.stockmen whose names we have,
and will send it to any others who
may apply to d. j. Ryan, Columbus,
o., or to myself.
At the meeting of the Executive
Committee, May 9th, it was deci-
ded to duplicate any premium
awarded at the Worlds Columbian
Exposition in 1898, on butter and
cheese from Ohio.
This method of recognizing the
dairy interests, is adopted because
it is impossible to have exhibits
sent first to Columbus for inspection
and award. AS soon as a package
of butter or cheese is opened and
tested it is unfit for further exhibit
tion, and could not be admitted for
competition at Chicago, under the
rules of Department of Algricul-
ture of the Worlds Columbian Ex-
position.
Makers of butter and cheese on
the farm, or in the factory or dairy,
desiring to exhibit, should notify
us, and receive the necessary
blanks and instructions.
We have been asked why it is
necessary to ship agricultural ex-
hibits to Columbus, and why not
ship direct to Chicago?
1t is necessary first to make our
awards before the articles are
placed on exhibition at Chicago.
Second, it is necessary to select
only the best of all that is offered.
Quattty and not quantity will win.
Third, it is necessary to know at
an early date what will be offered,
80 that if any line of products is
not filed or is not satisfactory we
pan secure what is needed, in some
pthcr way. Fourth, it is necessary
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1892-06-11

for better arrangement of the ex-
hibit and to save transportation of
all that is not needed at Chicago.
The space allotted to us is fixed,
and we must make the best show
possible within that space. From
what has been said, one can see
the Importance of having entries
close early. We will extend the
date for closing entries to as late a
date as possible.
The wool grower ought to report
by June 10, because he knows as
well then what he has to offer as
he can know months hence, but he
should not send in his fieeces or
samples until October.
We hope wool growers will not
let their exhibit go by default
Their reputation and that of the
State is at stake. We cannot afford
to let Australia, South Wales or
South America surpass us in this
worlds contest. If any reader has
any choice wool, let him send to
Daniel j. Ryan, Columbus, o., for
entry blanks without delay.
Growers of grain, tubers, roots
tobacco, ETC., can come along later
as their crops come in.

Not long ago COW died in the
vicinity of the Quinn ranch, near
the head of Goose Creek, south of
Wagon Wheel Gap, says the San
Juan Prospector. 1t soon became
apparent to William Quinn, owner
of the ranch, that the carcass of
the COW was being visited by a
bear of very large dimensions, and
in company with Dell McClelland,
Mr.. Quinn decided to "sit up" with
the bear and endeavor to get %
good shot at it by night. This was
done, but owing to darkness the
bear was not killed by shots fired.
AS the next resort a large bear trap
weighing about seventy pounds
was procured and set near the dead
"critter," and the trappers went to
bed laughing at the trick they had
played on the bear. The trap was
chained to a pole is feet long and
s inches through at the large end.
In the morning an examination
of the premises about the dead COW
showed plainly that the bear and a
cub had been there during the
night. There was a large track, 1S
inches long and or inches wide
and a small track, evidently made
by u cub. The trap, however, was
gone, and with it the 1S-foot pole,
and the disturbed condition of the
ground showed conclusively that
the bear had been caught in the
trap. The trail, however, away
from the scene was only the trail
of two bears-there was not a mark
of dragging either trap or pole.
Mr.. Quinn took up the trial,
which he followed eight miles with
out coming upon the bears, trap or
pole. At the camp of Mr.. Tom
Carey, seven miles away, that man
told how in the night he had been
awakened by sound of something
walking, with an occasional pause
and heavy fall on the ground as if
something had been dropped.
Having no gun, Mr.. Carey set in
his tent the balance of the night,
and endeavored to keep warm by
poking wood into a sheet-iron stove.
The trail was followed a mile or so
further, and then lost. In one
place the bears had passed through
a heavy, quaking aspen thicket and
had literally moved q swath
through the saplings, showing that
the trap and pole were being taken
along. The natural inference was
that the bear was caught in the
trap, had picked up the same with
the pole and started for the hills.
The bear is an old offender in these
parts and Mr.. Quinn hopes to find
it yet.
A man just in from the head of
the San Juan reports that he pass
ed the bears on the Pagosa road,
beyond Summitville, jogging con-
teptedly along, each carrying one
end of the pole, while the old bear
was caught in the trap by the right
front foot.
