From Paddock to Pulpit.

DETROIT, Oct. 15.-Rev. j. Ardey, who
has won s., 900 in racing premiums this
year, has sold the last of the horses in
his string of trotters except 2:20 road
ster and has gone back to preaching. A
church in one of the Minneapolis SUBJ
urbs has given him call, and he is now
there as candidate. The salary is
81 600, but the racing paraon says he be-

A Surprise in Murray.

MURRAY, Idaho, Oct. I7.-Mueh to the
surprise of everybody about the court
room, the change of venue in the case of
Frank Reed, charged with the murder of
George r. Trask, was denied by Judge
Holleman in open court Saturday. A
large part of the day was spent in read
ing affidavits, some to the effect that a
state of public feeling amounting almost
to philanthropy exists and about an
equal number to the exact contrary.
Able arguments were made by District
Attorney O'Niel and his associate against
the change, and replied to by Judges
Hagan and Ganahl, but for some reason
not apparent to the public the Judge
denied the motion in defiance of the
presence of these affidavits, showing the
very state of feeling which the prosecu-
ton denied. Judge Ganahl added to his
fame by his forceful eloquence in de-
fense of his client.

No Decline in Price of steaks.

Newberg Graphic. Cattle men all

of 10 to 121a cents goes, and the good
housewife has it to pay, while the farmer
who raises the beef takes whatever the
butcher is inclined to pay. Rather

What is the Matter 3?
Time a Halt Was Called Before
We Go Farther.
It is Certainly Most Dangerous Ground
We Are Treading.
1t Is Time We Looked the
Matter In the Face,
And Decided Just What We Had
Better Do.
DO Not Delay, for Delay
May be Fatal!
Do Not Delay, for Delay
May be Fatal!
What is the matter2

What is the matter?
Why do so many people, like Senator
Plumb, Senator Zach Chandler, Congress-
man Ray and Secretary Windham drop sud-
denly dead?
Only what is the matter with thousands
upon thousands of others, brain and nerve
exhaustion from overwork, fret and worry
and the cares and anxeties of the pushing
and hustling age in which we live, and
which finally end in the dread paresis, in
sanity, heart failure, nervous prostration
and sudden death.
Men without number are strainug their
brains and nervous systems in the mad race
after fortune and fame, and exhausting
their nervous and physical energies, until
sleepless nights, failing power, complete
nervous exhaustion, paralysis, insanity or
death must be the inevitable end unless
help from some source is received.
Thousands of women are overworked, ex-
hausted, worn out in nerve force and power
until they feel tired all the time. Clerks,
students, mechanics and laborers, from
close confinement, long hours, strain upon
the nerves, dissipation or other causes, are
losing their vitality, and becoming nervous
and physical wrecks.
You, reader, are rushing on blindly to
sure destruction. You are warned every
day and every hour of your impending
doom. How? By those strange sensations,
that dull, dizzy, and bad feeling head, that
restlessness, irritability and nervousness
by those more or less sleepless nights, from
which you wake tired and unrefreshed; by
the weak, trembling, cold limbs, by the
languor and sense of nervous and physical
exhaustion which grow upon you more and
more. These are danger signals, and not
to heed them is the folly of fool.

that our literary colleges are grabbing
from the farmers the means granted
them for the education of their children.
This is sadly true, and reproduces on
minor scale the greed of the ecclesiasti-
cal class in Queen M ry's and Queen
Elizabeth's times. But mark the differ
ence. Then there was no hope at all
for the farmer. He was worse off than
any African slave ever was in America.
Now he is wronged; but it is because
he does not care to right himself. AL
though he owes his present existing
comforts to the spread of knowledge
and comprehension of human rights,
he does not, as an individual, or as
class, sufficiently appreciate education
to put forth his hand and take it for his
children when it is held out to him.
But this will not last; and it is perhaps
better that for time the money we do
not care to take should be doing good to
those who have better appreciation of
what it can do for them.

EDMUND HERsEY, superintendent of
the Bussey Farm, connected with the
Bussey 1nstitute-the agricultural de-
partment of Harvard University-ha
kindly sent US some facts gathered
by observation and experience relating
to the white pine," which are both in
teresting and important. The time is
near at hand when we must give care
full attention to our forests; and land
owners, everywhere, are giving more
and more heed to this fact. Mr.. Her.
sey thinks that the white pine is already
profitable tree to grow on much of
the light soil of New England. 1t will
also do well on peat meadows. 1t is
easily reproduced from seed, readily
transplanted, and with little attention
grows quite rapidly. In from twenty
five to thirty-five years the white pine
will reach size suitable for coarse lum-
Der; and in sixty or seventy years, with
proper care and pruning, it grows large
enough and in proper form for clear
lumber. This is in accordance with our
own observation.

IN evidence of this fact we might cite
from Hume's History of England, which
we have lately been reading for the
third or fourth time. In those times,
even so recent as the days of "good
Queen Bess," the tillers of the soil had
absolutely no rights which their bet
ters" were bound to respect; and they
had for themselves, their wives and
children, no safe and permanent COM
forts comparable with those of an aver
age American farmers pigs and sheep.
Oil yes; there is no man or woman
alive in America who can even conceive
of the misery of the English peasantry
three hundred years ago. You would
have to go to Russia, to-day, to find
anything at all resembling the life of
the farmer in merry England in the fif-
teenth and sixteenth centuries. Amer
lea was not only haven but heaven
to those who escaped to it from across
the sea.

world is constantly improving as a

comfort in the present? We comp lain

For the report of the secretary of the
American Pathological Society for 1891,
covering the Washington meeting,
which is Interestingly reported, we are
indebted to the kindness of Secretary
George G. Bracket of Lawrence, Kan.
1t contains, besides the regular tables
of fruits, ETC., large amount of very
valuable matter in the form of papers
read, and the discussions thereon, as
well as reports from the different states
and provinces. Recognizing the great
amount of labor expended npon the re-
port, and the evident pains taken by
the secretary in getting it out, it still
remains that, like former reports, it is
defaced by much too great number
of typographical, clerical and scientific
errors. These might be mostly avoided
if slips of revised proofs could be sent
to the different writers and speakers
for final correction. 1t is really dis
tressing that such a valuable publica-
ton of national, and even international,
importance should be 80 defaced by
important errors in nearly if not quite
every issue for the last dozen years.

THERE is really very little use in adj
vising men or women of a violent
temper to control it. Otherwise, the
following excellent ideas from the
Kansas Farmer might be expected to
do much more good than they will:
Many men who claim to be profess
sional horsemen are often provoked to
anger by the balkiness of horse with
out knowing the true cause or remedy
of its refusal to obey. But few horses
are naturally vicious or stubborn; al
though many, by their free disposition,
are kept in constant strain of nervous.
ness by their threatening drivers. The
degree to which you have excited the
nervous system of your horse is the
true cause of his baking; and this
cause has been brought about by the
mistreatment of an excitable horse
hitched to heavy load. 1t is evident
that many horses have refused to re-
move loads when, if they were not
Crdzeu, IL Woulu NC no TASK W lnen ,
and it is also true that horses will pull,
with a steady draw, at loads which they
cannot move; in most cases they can
no more pull the former than the latter,
for the same reason that you cannot
readily climb fence when closely pur-
sued by vicious animal, and the
greater the danger and excitement the
less liable you are to escape. Why,
then, should you be cruelty punished
for not carefully and steadily climbing
the fence? o, erring horseman, take
off the fear, and you need not take off
the load You must make your horse
love you and not fear YOU"

But" some will say, "what if
Henry Georges views as to the owner
ship of land should prevail?" We have
studied those doctrines for some years,
and believe that the time will come
not very soon perhaps-when it will be
recognized that Georges ideas on the
tenure of land are far more advantage
GUS to the improving farmer than the
present system. The farmers shy
away from Georges ideas at first, be-
cause they are not understood. When
they are fully comprehended we think
it will be seen that under them land
tenure for the farming class will not
only be more equitable, but safer, more
enduring and more beneficial TO the
farmers themselves than the present
system. But we doubt if this will be
sufficiently recognized until farmers
become as a class men of education.

WHEN the time comes-and il can
not be far off in New England-that
farming is recognized as the best
steady business" that man can pur-
sue, we shall have much more practical
attention given to forestry on our
farms. Where every farmer is expect
ing and anxious to sell his farm =" as
soon as he can get good OFFER" moth
ing of that sort can be looked for. But
as men of education and capital begin
clearly to recognize the fact that the
safest and surest of all investments of
capital in a growing and prosperous
country are investments in farm land
not in city lots only-the tendency will
be more and more in that direction.
When that time is reached every farmer,
or farm manager, will be educated in
forestry, as in all other branches of his
business. Then it will be realized " how
fast trees grow" and we shall see great
areas of the land best suited to forests
carefully planted and cared for by ex-
pert foresters.

THAT there will always be enough
manual labor on the farm to keep the
farmer healthy and vigorous, without
erecting a gymnasium in the barn, we
fully believe. But that farm work is
and must necessarily continue to be
system of stupid, dreary drudgery, is
an idea that has no place in the minds
of sensible men, with eyes open to the
trend of human affairs. All science
now tends toward the alienation of
human hardships of every sort. Farm
ing, as it now is, is boys play to what
it was when we first took lessons in
reaping in our grandfather's big wheat
fields about 1888. Brains were needed
on the farm then, in order to make a
living, as much as they are needed
now; but muscle was needed a great
deal more. But farmers prospered
fairly in those days. and as few of them
failed as now" Possibly this is so
because Emerson's statement, that
"every man is as lazy as he dares to
be-" is as true now as when EN- erson
said it. But if it were possible to put
the farmer of to-day back where farm
ing was fifty years ago, he would not
talk in that strain more than a day or
two Farmers, even poor farmers, live
in vastly more comfort now than then.
They have the benefit of scores of
things to their advantage that had
no existence, and were not even con-
ceivable, in those "good old times. +"
We need not deny that they were good
times, either. They Dere good times.
The farmers of those days in Am erica
were seeing times such as never before
on earth had been seen. The dawn of
American liberty was the dawn of the
farmers millennium; but that is still
Frightening more and more unto the
