FOUNDATIONS OF PROFITABLE pArRY1Ne.

FOUNDATIONS OF PROFITABLE DAIRYrNG.
The foundations of profitable dairy
ing consist of good cows that are
literally fed and milked with exact
regularity, and an intelligent and OBJ
servant owner. With these essentials
present the details of the business are
soon acquired, and the degree of
prosperity is measured by theattention
given to the work and the ability
manifested in its execution. Dairying
is calling that requires the eye of
the owner to be watchful and his mind
to be thoughtful. He must be quick
to detect and prompt to investigate
and correct every unusual occurrence
that initiates against the comfort and
well being of his herd. Such a man
is always abreast of the knowledge of
the times because he is student, not
only of his speciality, but of all the
various things that interest mankind
1t is only by utilizing all forms of
knowledge that the development of
specialties is possible, and the wider
the degree of knowledge the specialist
possesses the greater his success.
Dairying is specially and the wiser
the dairyman is the better his dairy.
All his knowledge crystallizes there
to his personal advantage and the
benefit of the consumers of his product.

A Strange Snnersiition.

In Bosnia the people have believed
at all times that bridge could not be
firm and lasting unless human being
was walled up in it. Thus there is a
legend connected with the handsome
Roman bridge at Mostar, which says
that the fine arch across the Narenta
could not be finished until the archi-
tect walled up in it a bridal pair. Now
that solid bridge is being built across
the Save at Brazcka this superstition
is revived. 1t is rumored everywhere
that gypsies are stealing children to
sell them to contractors, who will wall
one up in each pillar. Exchange.

Hypodermlc Injection Of Perfumes.

There was quite a rage some years
ago in the East for perfuming the skin.
Some physicians discovered that the
hypodermic injection of certain per-
fumes, such as white rose, lilac or vio-
let, under the skin caused the perfume
20 be exhaled from the whole body,
and even from the breath. All the
ladies wanted TO be perfumed. The
operation had TO be repeated about
once q week in order to secure the de .
sired results. But, unfortunately, two
or three of the perfumed ones suffered
subsequently from blood poisoning,
and one or two died. That put
quietus on the hypodcrmic injection
of perfume, and the whole matter
dropped. london Answers.

The last instance of boiling to death
took place IN Persia In 1890. The

The cotton crop which is now
being marketed is expected to ag-
gregate approximately 6,500,OO0
bales. Some idea of the influece of
speculation on the price of the
staple may be derived from the
statement contained in the annual
report of the New York Cotton Ex-
change made yesterday that the
sales for future delivery during the
year had amounted to 52,450,000
bales. A business in contracts of
that magnitude in single market
with only one-eighth of thatamount
of actual cotton for the whole
world of buyers to come and go on,
must have afforded wide magin
for paper settlements. In spite of
the smaller crop, and some dis
couragements to speculative trad
ing, the business of the New York
Cotton Exchange was 20,000,000
bales greater than in the big crop
year of 1912.

PENSION Commissioner Lochren
Is credited with having remarked,
that "the new ruling of Secretary
Smith regarding the Disability law
will sweep II lot Of rubbish out OF
the Pension Department, and pave
the way to fnir and consistent work
in future; but the old soldier who
fairly won his pension will not be
touched. 1t is our duty to serve
him." The Commissioner might
have added that the old soldier
will be all the better served as a
result of the sweeping out of the
rubbishy rulings. These, as a
whole, were not conceived in the
soldiers real interest, but were
rather the outcome of favoritism
or political influence.

The Gold Fraud.

The New York World facetious-
ly remarks: "The Country is
carrying a silver jag and money
has got tight on it,"
If there is any truth in the above
it is due to the foolish provisions
of the Sherman silver law, and the
more foolish and fraudulent inter-
probation of its provisions by the
administration of Harrison and
which Interpretation is maintained
by the present secretary of the
Treasury.
The Sherman law provides for
the purchase of 100000 ounces Of
silver, by the government, month
ly, which was to he paid for by the
issue Of silver certificates which
should be recognized and circulate
as money.
1t was futher provided that
100000 ounces of the silver so
purchashed should be coined into
money each month until July !,
1891, and thereafter only so much
should be coined as might be re-
quired to redeem the silver certifi.
Gates issued as above, when the
same were presented for redemp-
ton.
A reasonable construction of the
law, demanded that the volume OF
currency shonld be expanded at
the rate of the value of 6,6O0,OOO
ounces of silver per month until
July !, 1891, and then remain
stationary, as silver coin was to be
substituted for silver certificates
whenever the latter were present
ed for redemption.
But the Harrison ton
inaugurated the policy OF redeem
ing the silver certificatesi in gold
and thus stopping silver coinage
entirely on July l, 1891, and posi-
tive and rapid contraction of the
currency has been going on ever
since to the great detriment OF
every business Of the country ex.
cept dealing In gold.
On this subject the Cleveland
Plain Dealer truthfully says:
"The "coin" notes have been re-
deemed with gold instead Of with
the silver dollars coined out of the
purchased bullion. What silver
dollars were coined remained in

the vaults because they were not
used, rs the law on it's face con-
templated. for the redemption of
the notes issued against the bullion.
Having made no use of the silver
dollars the treasury made the plea
that the public did not want them
and therefore it was useless to coin
any more of them. The Carson
City mint was therefore closed
and the coinage of silver dollars
stopped.
Instead of the Suspension of
silver coinage" next spring, or con-
tinuing the present suspension of
such coinage, the best thing to be
done would be to coin up all the
silver now in the possession of the
government and thereby change
it from its present condition of
warehoused merchandise, held for
a rise in the market, into that of
real money available for the needs
of the government and for the re-
lief of the country's wants. Then
the mints should be thrown open
to the free tonnage of both gold
and silver and the government
abandon its position of a specula.

ed, hut, preceiving the discomfort
of the advance guard, thought 1t
possible to win despite the gov
ernor, who had dtRe9vered at a late
hour that the iiNatNRant governor
could not be tWs8Td down and who
did not scrapts to accommodate RECON-
himself to the siMstf6fl and go
back on Purseli.
The Foraker laN&tS& has
had in the past no more
relentless foe than Pursell, but his
pride did not stand in the way Of
his courting their friendship, and
the courtship began with warm
caresses and earnest-seeming pro-
testations of enternal fidelity. The
courted faction displayed some
signs Of pleasure and Pursell
thought the day won. But the
maiden was coyly distant and now
the passionate lover Of yesterday
is Tilted, for the second time in q
week.
The Foraker Element of the Re-
publican party is not composed of
chumps altogether, and the friend
ship of Pursell was too new to be
free from suspicion. He had too
much the appearance of fortune
hunter to please them.
Poor Pursell had to suffer anoth-
or humiliation when he was defeat
ed in his own district for re-elec-
ton as member of the state CEN
trail committee by Judge F. A.
Kelly of Perry county. The vote
was, Kelley 90, Pursell II. In the
meeting.
Gen. Grosvenor was caught In
an attempt to shirk the carrying
out of pledge made by him to
Pursell that he would vote for the
latter for state central committee
man. 1t was decided that the vo-
ting should be by ballot, and Gros-
venor and Representative Kessing-
er, both of whom had promised to
vote for Pursell, cast their ballots
for Kelly, thinking that the ballots
would all be cast into a hat and
counted together. Instead of do
ing this the tellers counted the
ballots by counties and it was dis
covered that all the ballots handed
in for the Athens county delega-
tion, and they were all there, were
for Kelly. Both Grosvenor and
Kessinger had broken their pro.
misses. The situation was discov-
cred by Grosvenor and he immed-
lately changed his ballot, and Kes-
singer followed his example.
In the language of Mark Antony
this "was the most unkindest cut
of all"
For years Pursell has worshiped
at the feet of Grosvenor, he has
lauded, ,courted worked and lied for
him, and this is the end of 1t all.
With Cardinal, Woolsey, Pursell
may exclaim, "Farewell! Ions
farewell!! to all my greatness,'
and the choir may sing the funera
dirge:
10, breathe not his namel let It. sleep
in the shade,
Where cold and unhonored his relics
are laid;
Sad, deep, dark and pugent, the cuss
words he said,
AS the night dew tn ats falls on the
grave DER his head.

Requiescat Pursellibus.

For months, ever since the elec-
tion Of Cleveland to the Presidency
Pursell Of the Republican Gazette
has been seeking new field.
The Logan p. o. was lost and
failing to get a good paying ap-
pointment at the hands of Gov.
Mckinley, he conceived the idea of
shelving Lieut.. Gov. Harris and
nominating himself.
To this end he gave himself up
to working up a boom, in which
landable enterprise he fully enlist

columns of which was carefully
copied all the commendatory ex-
tracts found in the columns of his
admiring exchanges.
So long and ardently did Silly

The central committee was
manipulated to his desire and
their selection of party representa-
tives was pronounced solid Pur-
sell delegation, and, in his vain
glory, the drummer boy of Perrys-
vile became full fledged colonel.
On Tuesday, with his "boom"
carefully wrapped in tissue paper
and securely packed in a valise,
accompanied by the groomers
from this county he repaired to
Columbus and to glory.
The Pursell boom never did
have a real life. 1t was
like the straw man whom the New
England witch endowed with a
tobacco smoke existence and sent
out into the world to conquer. The
foundations of its life were laid on
marshy ground and in quicksands
