The Black Pepsin Fraud.

The assertion that Farmers need to be
protected from some of their alleged
friends" would seem to be true when we
find prominent live stock paper pub
fishing the latest circular of the black
pepsin swindlers. This circular urges
all farmers to test black pepsin in order
to give their experience at the meeting
of the dairymen on the Worlds Fair
grounds, June %, stating that day viii
be devoted to the making of butter with
black pepsin. This fraud has been ex-
posed several times in this paper, but
the fact that after we had exposed it
twice one of our regular contributors
wrote an article telling how he had been
"taken in" leads us to think perhaps
some others have not observed the
notices against it, hence it is given an
other "send off."-Nat1 Stockman and

CHOLERA PRECAUTIONS
Timely Advice from Physician to Procure
Cleanliness.


Cleanliness.
Editors Chronicle:
At recent meeting of the Belmont
CJunty Medical Society. held In the city
of Bellaire, DIR. Long of that place, read
a paper on Epidemic Cholera" Such
was the Importance of the subject
and great merit of the paper, that the
Society resolved by an unanimous vote,
to secure its publication in our county
papers.
There is but little doubt that Bellaire,
Barnesville, Martins Ferry and Bridge
port will appreciate the dangers to which
the doctor refers, and take action accord
ingly. 1t is feared, however, that st.
Clairsville and places still more remote
from the line of travel and supposed
danger, will remain Indifferent and un-
prepared until it is too late. The dan
ger is great and may be close at hand.
Let every good citizen exert all his infiu-
ence to the end that such action as is
necessitated by the exigencies of the sit
uation, be taken; that municipalities,
and private houses, as well, resort to all
the means devised by science to save our
community from this scourge.
The State Board of Health will will
ingly cooperate with all proper efforts,
and the medical profession stand ready
at all times to aid.

For Two Years.

Cattle will be scarce and beef high for
two years to come,' is the opinion of one
of the best posted men in the live stock
trade in Ohio "The result is due to
natural causes and effects every portion
of the United States For five or six
years prices for cattle on the hoOf have
ranged so low that they have not been
profitable for farmers who raise from
ten to fifty head, and there are thousands
of such farmers As result the whole
country has been denuded of these small
lots and has just found it out. A cattle
crop suitable for beef cannot be produced
under two and half or three years, and
naturally the supply being short prices
will advance. The high price of hogs
will induce farmers to rush into hog
raising, and inside ofefght months prices
will tumble, even if the corn crop is bad
one"

was given a new phase Tuesday, by the

in the field by petition, and consists OF

Lawrence and George Linn. The ticket
nominated by the Democratic primaries

on wagons of certain widths of tire. A
similar measure should be enacted in

1t seems clear that the best way ont of
the difficult promblem of lighting the
courthouse and county buildings is to
put in electric lights. Gasoline is a nui-
sance and is dangerous. The well at tht
courthouse itself is loaded with gasoline.
and lighted match might at any time
blow that end of the building out. 1t is
almost impossible to keep the gasoline
tanks free of leaks. And after the wiring
is done, the expense of electric lighting
would be much less than by the present
dangerous system.
