"Earmers too frequently force their
COWS into disease. They are anxious
to get all the milk possible; and by
forcing them with grain, and milking
them just as long as possible before
calving, they outrage nature and wear
them out. This process rapidly de,
develops any impending disease, and
the COW is soon entirely worthless"

IEA REFORM.

TIE following i 81 eH'rac. from
the address on Trad" Comtinalicas |
aud Strike" delivered by Col. /
Douglas, Of Greensboro, il Chicago, |
Ill, on September s, 1893:
"A lahoring man can rarely escape taxa |
ton. He has no money or stocks or bonds |
10 conceal. He canno, evade the poll tax ~
hiding his own head, neither can he put his
muie Or cow III a safe deposit vault and swear
he.oes not own any.
The poor farmer ploughing hr;dlcd steer
upon a barren hillside, pays taxes uron las
seer a. well as upon ms own head. He has
far cause for complaint If the railroad mag
nate, rolling by in his private car, sinks
any part Of the just burdens OF government
Another principle OF taxation that orcr-
ates very uucquailv is that which permits
all debts to be deducted from solvent credits.

OF the place. His actual ownership e.teuds
only t. the amount b. has paid, and OH that
alone should he be required to pay taxes.
The best citizen on earth is the man who
owns his home. Next TO his wife and chill
dren, it is to him the dearest thing Oh earth,
because it shelters them. He constantly
improves and beauties it, and becomes
more and more identified with every feature.
lie seeks TO avoid and prevent every danger
that may threaten it. He Is never riOter.
The State should by every means in its
power. encourage a citizen to acquire a
home, as the surest pledge of his tidelity
Every little flower planted by the cOutented
hand Of freeman, is stronger prop OF a
free government than bayOnet.
What is the policy pursued? Let us sup
pose the case of a farmer who has saved per
haps five hundred dollars from his daily
toll, and wishes to procure home. He
will buy 4 snail farm for a thousand dol
lars, paying two hundred dollars in cash
and giving his note and mortgage for the
remainder lie will then invest his remain
ing capital in household and kitchen fuFni
ture, horses, cows, hogs and farming uten
sis, paying perhaps "a third or fourth il
cash, trusting to unremitting labor and
= economy to work ont of debt. So far from
helping him, the State refuses him the de
duction it gives to the bOndAOlder, and for
oes him to pay taxes on over two Thousand
dollars worth of property when he has lie
! gal title to none OF it, and an equitable title
to OnIya fourth.
, The dangers that threaten our country ant
its institutions are evident. The remedy i

e lies in just recognition of the rights OF al

An ancient suit Of court garments,
worth 81, 600 is on exhibition i'll the

1t includes coat. waistcUat. knee

which arrived from ireland less than
two weeks ago. The suit was once the
property of j. J. O'Rilev Of County
Cavan, who wore it IN the Irish parlia-
1nent in 1714. The coat is Of heaviest
broadcloth Of Il deep maroon color apd
is richly embroidered in solid gold bull

wreath Of shamrock, is embroidered on
each side of the front, with a vine Of
the same embroidered around the full,
long skirts of the garment. Another
harp is wrought on the back. Gold
braid an inch III width tiniskcs the edges.
The waistcoat is Of the same mate
rial and finish as the coat. The knee
breeches are of deep yellow plush. thick
and of very fine t Eture. The buttons
are marked "P. White. Dublin. The
three cornered hat is Of black beaver,
covered with gold lace and hung at the
corners with gold iass"ls.
The girth Of the coat proves the own

somewhat soiled from wear, and the

Greetings In the East.

The Hindoos in Bengal, when greet
ing, touch their forehead with the right
hand and bend their head forward. AS
a mark of profound obeisance they
place their right hand first on their
breast, then ON the ground and lastly
on their forehead, while calling them
selves the "obedient slaves Of the OBJ
ject of their adulation. In Ceylon a
man will PROSTATE himself on the
ground before his superior, necessarily
repeating the names and titles of the
latter. In the east, and more especially
among the Mongols, most styles of sal
utation bear the impress of servile dis
position. In China if two persons on
horseback happen to meet. the inferior
d1smounts and stands waiting for the
other to pass. In Japan man of low
degree must, in the presence of his su-
perior, take off his sandals, thrust his
right hand into the left sleeve, let his
arms slide slowly down to his knees,
walk past the other with measured tread,
and exclaiin in tones of abject terror,
"Augh. augh!" C'Do me no harm }.

Rfpenfng Tomatoes in Winter.

Among the many ma plans tba that nave
which remain unripe at the coming of
frost, we have found the following the
most satisfactory:
When sharp frost is imminent gather
all the green tomatoes. Wrap each
separately in paper-old newspapers
will do. Now pack them in boxes and
store in a cool place just warm enough
to be secure from frost but not warm,
the object being to keep, not to ripen
them. Bring out few at time as
they are wanted, and place In warm
place to ripen few days in advance.
In this way we have for several years
had sliced tomatoes on our table up to
the middle of January.-W. f. Massey,

Pea and Bean Weeyi1s.

Many hundred bushels of garden peas
and beans, COW peas and SOFA beans
will be destroyed by weevils in this
state during the coming winter, unless
proper treatment be used. These wee
wills are two species of the genus Bru-
chus b. pisi. the pea weevil, is the lar
ger and is blackish with white spots.
It attacks only garden peas, never gar
den beans or the cow pea. which IS
true bean. The bean weevil, b. fabB,
is a rather small yellowish hairy in
sect. This weevn never attacks gar
den peas but is the greatest pest of
beans and cow peas. Both species lay
their eggs, upon the growing pods in
the field and garden. The eggs hatch
in few days and the young grub bores.
its way into the seeds. The grub lives
within the seed until it has completed
it's growth and become a perfect or
winged insect. The pea weevil never
lays her eggs upon hard or mature
seeds the bean wetvil in a warm eli
mate like ours. grows from the egg to
the winged state in about two months.
The female at once lays her eggs upon
the hard and mature beans or COW peas,
and these in turn mature and produce
other insects and the process may con
tinue. as many farmers know to their
cost until the whole package Of beans
or cow peas is consumed.
REMEDY.--The cheapest and most ef-
fective remedy for both weevils is BIZ
sulphide of carbon. 1t is a good plan
to run the seed through flaming mill
shortly after gathering. This cleans
the seed and destroys many eggs on the
bean. Garden peas and beans kept for
seed and cow peas should always be
treated with this substance before be
ing stored ava ~ and as soon as possible
after being ha .eSted. Place the loose
seeds in a tight barrel which should
not he quite full. On top of the seeds
place d saucer containing three or four
ia tablespoonful of the isulphide. Cover
the barrel tightly with a cover upon
which should be placed a heavy cloth
Of any kind except rubber CT Oil cloth
The bisulphide will quickly vapor;z e
and penetrate the entire mass of seed
| killing every grub and beetle. Allow
| the covered barrel to stand for twenty
| four hours, then remove the cover and
| permit the fumes to escape. Never
| bring light into or near tho room
| while the fumes can be smelled as bi-
sulphide of carbon is very infamma BILE.
The smell of this liquid is objectiona-
BILE, but it is not lasting. The bisul-
| phide may not kill the eggs and to in
sure complete satisfaction repeat the
bisulphide treatment after thirty days
Bisulphide of Carbon may .be ordered
in quart or pint cans from any dealer
| in chemicals, for about twenty cents
per pound. Most druggists can supply
it in smaller quantities but at higher
price-Gerald Mccarthy, Entomologist,

The minister of justice has just pub
lished some statistics Of suicides which
are not without interest. They show
an average of 4 per cent for males
under 20 years of age and of 80 per
cent for men over 60. OF suicides of
females, ON the other hand, 9per cent
were those of girls under 20, while
there were not more than 81 per cent
for women over GO years Of age. Tween
ty-six per cent Of the suicides were at
tributed to mental arrangement and 20
to physical suffering. Drunkenness is
held responsible for ~ per cent and
love affairs for 4.
Most of the men had recourse to the
rope, while the women preferred death
by drowning, though some took poison,
which seems to be altogether eschewed
by the sterner sex. Strangely enough,
suicides are far more frequent in the
spring and summer than during the
colder months. which leads to the in
ference that want. which is much more
prevalent in the winter than in the 9TH
er seasons, is not the usual cause OF
these sad determinations to be rid OF
life.-Paris Letter in London Tele-

In the ordinary funerals Of Christian

then censed tho body, AID while 1t was
being deposited in the grave offered up
prayers and benedictiOns. At the Obse-
quies of persons Of distinction hymns
were sung by the attendant priests, who
accompanied The body ii procession.
At this period the body Of a deceased
person was always watched by the rel
atives and friends ,om the moment of
death to the time of burial, the wake"
of the present day being the survival
of this custom.
It was Il common practice when a
BODY was embalmcd to take out the
heart and bowels end inter them in a
different church to that in which the
body was buried. Testators sometimes
made request in their will for this to
be done. The custom appears to have
prevailed from the twelfth to the eigh-
teenth century. The heart of Richard
was buried at Rouen, his bowels at
Chaluz and his body at FOntevand. In
1888 the kings heart was discovered

Early risers in Old Town last Sunday
were favored with the sight of wom-
an climbing the ladders on the staging
of a chimney 1903 feet high, which has
recently been erected for mill in that
town. The cause of this sudden rise
in life is said to be the result of a wager
between the climber, who is cook in
q hotel. and the landlady, that if she
would climb to the top of the chimney
the landlady would cook the dinner for
her, which she did. 1t was rather a pc
culiar way of securing holiday, and
