BABY RUTH's SILVER SPOON

Deacon Cleveland.


NoRw1cH. Feb. 5.-Mrs. Mary Q. Arnold Of
Jail Hill in this city received a letter from
Grover Cleveland q day or two ago. in which
he wrote that Ruth was very proud OF the sill
yer spoon that Mrs. Arnold had sent her. and
would have her father thank tho Norwich lady
for the gift. Hence Mr.. Cleveland thanked
Mrs. Arnold cordially in behalf Of Ruth. and
added that the spoon was not only a very valu-
able family relic. but O highly priced token Of
tho Norwich woman's esteem.
That spoon has a history. The Clevelands
are n Norwich family. Growers Great-Rrand-
father. the Rev. Aaron Cleveland. dwelt in

HERE AND THERE.

Prevention is cheaper and better
than cure. When an animal is sick it
should be removed at once from all
others of its kind.
Give level culture and avoid hand
labor on the potato crop ami thus
cheaper production. Sort thor oughly
before taking to market to secure the
top price.
The farmer makes a financial fail
ure less often than any other business
man. While lie seldom achieves great
wealth, he has a pretty sure road to
comfortable Independence.
The worst idea that a farmer can
get into his head is that he needs more
land. We have seen good many
farms, but seldom one where more la
Dor could not be better employed than
more land.
1t will be found an advantage to
clean out the hay loft and sweep it
thoroughly before new hay is stored.
The mum Der of mice and insects found
snugly domiciled in the loft will be
surprising.
Butter underworl<ed will be striped,
overworlked it has the appearance of
in value and in the makers reputat ton.
A good profit is the result of attending
to little details.
In nearly all cases the nearer the
work of cultivation can be given in sea-
son the better will be the results Sc
cured. Thorough cultivation is one of
the essentials necessary to the growing
of good crop.
The man that will scrub his grain
bins thoroughly with boiling brine just
before he fills them, will hardly be
troubled with weevil Whitcwashing
the bins with thin whitewash, being
careful to get it into cracks and corners,
makes assurance doubly sure.
Some men set a tree they would
a fence post, but such will never make
good fruit-growers. The hole for 1.-THE
tree should be made wide and deep, and
the bottom filed with good, rich earth.
Then set the tree firmly and put a
good stake beside it and bind q belt of
soft material about the tree and the
stake.
The best time to plow stubble
ground for fall wheat is the earliest
possible moment If the roller or drag
follows close after the p1ow, the partly
crushed and pressed down Jumps will
not dry out and harden as they
will if left MS they come from the pillow,
and the work of preparing the seed
bed will be much easier; and then the
moisture in it will be conserved.
