UnreliabiIityO of Natural Gas,

The days of natural gas. says the St.
Louis Globe Democrat, are numbered.
There is surprising unanimity among the
mining engineers on this point. They
agree that more gas can be found, and
that wells may continue to some extent,
but they say experience has proven tina,
the supply can not be depended upon for
manufacturing or for heating purposes.
The amount of natural gas reached its
maximum two years ago. Il has fallen
off each year since, notwithstanding the
large number of new wells bored. Said
a PlttsDurg engineer:
I'VE have had pretty bad time this
winter 10 Pittsburg The flow has given
out repeatedly just at a time perhaps
when it was most ne d d P.1q'e wAo
had 10 coal in their houses have h,.d The
gas go out on them II! sour Of JEe very
coolest weather. Manufacturers who
depended on gas Tor fuel bate bod to-
shut down. Business has be, Ii der ~ ed
and home lie Ii rs been made misera bic
Some people are still boring wells aud
trying to keep up a supply of tapping
places, but with emily partial success.
One after another the wells give out.
When they cease flowing the only tniug
to be done is to turn the valve and leave
them alone. Sometimes we'll will start
up again and Il Nv gas after it has been
idle for some time. But all seem to
reach a state of exhaustion sooner or
later. Manufacturers are going back to
coal again and householders are agreeing
that it will not do to depend upon natural
gas. One thing has been made certain,
the theory that this manufacture of gas
is going on fast enough to supply the
flow is all wrong. 1t is slow process
We have already bored holes enough to
overtask nature"

That's what you think, perhaps,
when you read that the poprietors
of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy offer
$500 reward for an iucUrable ease

think, to find the makers Of medl-

One type of woman who makes a

OF hearing too much about these rel

The woman who incites attention, or

No other practical knowledge Is Of
greater value than that OF the balanc-
ing OF rntions, and utilizing the coarse
provenders Of the farm. I know farm
ers by the hundred who save no fodder
from their corn helds, even though the
hay crop be short and their stock nu-
merous. Often ! have seen forty or
fifty acres Of cornstalks left In the
hold. and the straw Of several hundred
bushels Of wheat dumped in n pile In
n corner Of the wood lot. and their
owners buying hay by March 1 for
their stock, and like "Phnraoh's leaa
kline" the herd would devour one OF
their number-or its value-each week
After an experience OF over thirty
years, during which have given per-
sonal attention 10 my stock. and noted
carefully the effect Of different foods,
! pronounce good, bright corn fodder
the most palatable, wholesome and
economical Of all provenders for cattle,
horses and sheep. This winter l am
feeding eleven head of horses aud cows
three of the horses of large draft
breeds-and, with only the fodder
from twelve acres of corn, have not
fed a pound of hay since September,
and shall not until April This corn
fodder cost me as follows: For cutting
mp the corn, SIS; cost of huslting of $50
shocks, 100 hills each, and binding tho
fodder, at cents per shock, $50; two
days with two hands and team draw
ing the fodder to the barn. SC; total,
s4A Deducting cents per bushel for
huslsing 500 bushels Of corn, IL leaves
the net cost of the fodder in the barn
e3p. Counting that this fodder will
last the eleven head six months, the
cost for rough feed for them is 90 cents
per head per month; and shall be
able 20 sell at least ten tons of hay,
which would, without the fodder, all
have been fed out on the farm. Good
bright straw can be used to winter
horses and cattle; they will eat Il well
and thrive on II, but II Is best that, In
stead Of corn, the grain ration be bran
and oil meal; these balance the ration
and enable the animal - digest the
straw much better than II IL Is fed
with corn, for the straw is deficient In
albuminoids, and the bran and oil
meal are both rich In this essential ele-
menL The greatest waste OF the farm
is in the use Of feed, and little study
and investigation Is needed to enable
us TO overcome this waste. II, with
the sharp competition they must meet,
our manufacturers showed as little in
telligence as we farmers do, they would
every one be bankrupt in a single year.
Make careful study of this matter,

You can gain, and you will be sur
prised 20 see what a saving can be

commodor. Vanderbilt. Millions.

Commodore Vanderbilt spent the last
days of his life in a great big old house
that stood in that aristocratic portion
of New York City, Washington square,
and he had married for a second wife a
sweet, young woman of the south. He
was anxious to writc a will over which
there could be no disagreeing when he
should have passed away. When the
will was completed it was submitted to
several brilliant and high-priced legal
lights, among whom was William II.
Evarts, and they all, for fees OF ten
thousand dollars or thereabouts, pro-
nounced the document not impugnablc.
But the will remained a subject of un-
easiness 10 the commodore, and one
day he was told of young lawyer who
had been in the Office of the register OF
wills for some years, and who was
something of an expert in the matter OF
wills Send him a copy Of mine and a
small feer' II was done, and the young
man In going over the paper found a
flaw and reported IT. The discovery
was referred TO the legal lights before
mentioned. and they all agreed that the
point was we'll taken. The breach was
healed and there was no legal con-
troversy over the Vanderbilt millions

An attempt is likely to be made to
change the date for the meeting of
congress from December to early
spring, and although it is champiOned
by Republicans who are anxious to
precipitate the fight they predict and
expect in the Democratic party when
the Fifty-Third congress comes to-
gether, by making certain that it
shall come together in the spring
without the necessity Of a presiden-
tial proclamation converting an extra
session, it meets the unqualified ap-
prOyal of many Democrats. particu-
larly among those who regard an ex-
ira session of the next congress as a
necessity, and a majority Of the Dem
OcratS in the present congress unQues-
tiOnably do. Aside from any ques-
tiOn of politics, it would certainly be
an improvement to have the congress
elected in November meet the fol-
lowing spring, instead of waiting
thirteen months, as it does now, ex-
cept when called in extra session.

Ripans Tabules for torpid liver.


The laws Of health are taught in
our schools: but not in way to be of
much practical benefit and are never
illustrated by living examples, which
in many cases could be easily done.
If some scholar, who had just con-
tracted a cold, was brought before
the school, so that all could hear the
dry, loud cough and know its signifi-
canoe; see the thin white coating on
the tongue, and later, as the cold de-
yelOps, see the prOfuse watery ex-
pectoratiOn and thin watery discharge
from the nose, not one of them would
ever forget what the first symptoms
of cold were. The scholar should
then be given Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy freely, that all might see
that even a severe cold could be cured
in one or two days, or at least greatly
mitigated, when properly treated as
soon as the first symptoms appear.
