Another New Swindle.

In some parts of Pennsylvania an alleged
agent for Michigan pillow company is travel
ing over the country selling sulky plows to
farmers at double prices and taking notes for
the same on the understanding that one-hali
of the amount be boarded out at the rate of
one dollar day If the farmer wishes to pay
in ten days he is to have eight per cent dis
count The agent also offers to credit on the
note Il dollar and a-half for every customer to
whom the farmer may introduce him. When
he gets the note the agent disappears and the
note turns up in the hands of third parties, who
demand full settlement Then the same old
story follows-a law suit and endless trouble
and expense for the victim. The alleged sin
nocent third party into whose hands such
notes always find their way is as big scamp
as the man who secures the signature to it

THE ALMsHoUsE AND JAIL.-Mr. q. s. Grit
Association, accompanied by Rev. Louis F.
Zinkhan, A. NJ, paid visit to the Hartford
County Almshouse and Jail last Wednesday.
At the former institution they found thirteen
white men. five white women and one white
child, four colored men, eight colored women
and one colored child-thirty-two in all,
about one half of whom are insane or feeble
minded. The visitors speak in words of warm
praise of the management, especially by the
matron. A religious service was held which
was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The associa-
tion is very DESTROYS of making some arrange
ments to hold regular services there.
At the Jail they found seven prisoners con-
fined, all for petty offences except Levi Lus
ter held on a charge of murder. They made
the stereotyped report-that everything is in
as good condition as possible considering the
wretched state of the building.

a great pet among the children in the neigh

years old wrote him the following obituary:
Deep down in the ground
They dug him grave,
And built up mound
10 cover poor Dave.
Many sad little mOurners,
In tears, stood around
The grave of their doggie,
Now laid in the ground.
Baby Dora sobbed loud
While Mary, more mild,
Said brother, "Dave was
Our pet and our child"
And the naughty bad people,
Who poisoned our Dave,
Will not have II mourner
To cry at their grave.

MORE THAN FARMING.

The American farmer is more than
farmer, and his thoughts range
far beyond the production of crops
and live stock. 1t is not enough,
SAYS the New York Tribune, to know
how to raise large harvests; he seeks
to know how to derive the greatest
benefits from them for himself and
family, how he may receive his fair
proportion of the price paid for them
bv the near or remote consumer,
how he can best get his products to
the distant market, how a home
market may be created for such as
will not pay the cost of long trans
portation. and under what condi-
tions the money when received may
be of the greatest value to him. This
knowledge is of as practical impor-
tance to him as that relating direct
" to the tillage of the soil; for he is
a voter and can WELD the ballot as
effectively as the spade or hoe.

GIVE THE WOMEN 4 CHANCE.

The action Of the Virginia court of
appeals in admitting Mrs Belva
Lockwood to the bar is not very
cordially Endorsed in that state, but
the Richmond Times gets it down
about right when it says:
The Times is not very enthusiast
tic over the the Virginia court of
appeals admitting Mrs. Belva Lock
wood to its bar, nor is it very en-
thusiastic woman's rights journal,
as womans rights is popularity un-
derstood. Nevertheless, the Times
thinks the decision of the court of
appeals is right. We see no reason
why woman should be debarred
from making a living by an honest
and honorable calling. The OppOr-
tunities which women have to make
a living are narrow and few enough,
heaven knows. Ifany woman thinks
she has found an intellectual calling
in which she can maintain herself
and her family, In the name of hu-
manity let her employ her/talents
and energies in it, if she can get en-
plOyment.
So many bright and good women
are now compelled to earn their liv-
ing that all who sympathize with
them will be glad to see their field
of endeavor gradually widening.
Many women are well qualified to
succeed in the professions and in va
rious occupations which do not re-
quire much physical strength. If
they desire to engage in these occu-
pations, and if people are willing to
give them business and employment,
there is no sound reason why they
should not be allowed a fair chance
to test their capacity. No obstacles
should be put in their pathway

CHICKEN COOPS.

The most economical and service
able coop for the hen and the brood,
for the first three months, is the COM
mon pitch-roof box, about three by
two and half feet, if it can be plac
ed upon the ground This should
have no floor, or, if rats are trouble
some, use floor; but, by all means,
let it be movable; i. e., not nailed to
the coop. The coop may be moved
about and set in new place every
few days, thus affording a fresh,
clean ground work continually. This
arrangement is an excellent one for
the health of the young birds.
The coop should have an open slat
front, with pitch roof overhanging
the body of the box two or three
inches to shed the rain, and near the
caves two-inch holes should be bored
on both sides for veutilat ton.
The chicks will run out at the
front in fine weather, and the mother
will have ample room inside for her
own comfort, as we'll as to brood
the young when needful. If the box
be kept clean and free from lice, the
chickens will do nicely in this form Of
shelter until they are strong enough
to be transferred to the larger coops
of a similar formation, where they
may be colonized in numbers Of forty
or fifty together at night before they
get large enough to go to the rOOStS.

CLIPPED AND CONDENSED.

If you are not getting the top
prices for stock, look around for the
cause. There is no good reason why
one man should not raise as good
stock as another.
Scarlet clover has failed on the
light soils of New Jersey, and it is
doubtful if it will fulfill all that has
been claimed for it, except on soils
that are well adapted to red clover.
If the COWS be heated before milk
ing, when their udders are heavy
from the accumulated tactical fluid,
it does not do much good to cool the
milk off afterward, so far as repair
ing damage wrought.
No farme' should be satisfied with
an average" crop. The farm should
be made TO produce more every year
than it did previously. The aver
age crop may cause a loss, and a
slight gain may be profit.
