The trouble with the teaching of
to-day, is that personal honesty is
not taught. Success, success, that's
the word, and it matters not how,

: As wheat is now down to 60 cents
: per bushel some of our farmers are
feeding it to their stock. Care
should be used in feeding this grain
o to horses, as it is too heating for
Q strong feeding, and, as some of our
s farmer friends, who have had ex-
porience have told.us, ii viii serious
I. ly effect the digestive orgaYs Of
. horses. Especially is this the case
: with colts, for whom the wheat ought
;" to be thoroughly boiled before it is
fed.
:. The Juniata Valley Editorial AS
. sociation has abandoned its intended
trip to Bedford, Pa, owing to the

the Celebration at Chicago comes
" only once every four hundred years,
" and it is not safe to wait for the
/ next one unless Death keeps the ed.
itors waiting rs long as some of their
y subscribers do.
