Their Last Song.

A letter to Lord Clifford from his
son, sent through Reuters agency,
gives touching incident of the re.
cent battle in South Africa in which
the English force under Major Wilson
fell in their attempt to capture tho
Matabele king, Lobengula. Mr.. Gift
ford obtained the facts from an In
duna, who was an eyewitness of the
fight.
Major Wilson and his party, mum.
bering thirty-ive men, were surround
ed by nearly three thousand of the
Matabele. The Iuduuas ordered their
men to shoot the horses first, but tho
Englishmen piled them up as ramparts
and fired over them.
The battle lasted three hours. The
Englishmen refused to yield in spite
of the fearful odds, and so sure and
steady was their aim that the Matabelo
warriors lay dead around them in
heaps.
The Induna states that as the after.
noon wore on and the sun went down,
large reinforcements arrived for King
Lobengula's army. One by one the
Englishmen had fallen, and their shots
became slow and fewer. Their am.
munition was giving out.
At last there were but half-dozen
of them lett alive, among whom was
Major Wilson himself, large man
who was streaming with blood and
who fought desperately. Presently
the shots ceased altogether. The last
cartridge had been fired.
"Then," the Induna said, "they all
stood up together, shoulder to shoul'
der, and taking off their hats they
sang a song in English, like those the
missionaries sing to the natives. They
sang until the Matabeles rushed in
aud assegaied them"
What was the hymn they sang will
never be known. But whatever We
may think of the cause of the Mata-
belan war, its justice, or its wisdom
the picture of the half-dozen Englisl
soldiers, helpless in the midst o.
swarms of savages, and facing an in
slant terrible death, standing will
barred heads, shoulder to shoulder
singing hymn to God, which they
had learned at their mothers knees
must quicken our faith in the power
of Christian sentiment to sustain mel

SUGGESTIONS ON MILKING.

In the course of demonstration on
butter making Thomas Smith, dairy
instructor for'the Butte county council,
Canada, delivered an address. In re-
lation to the operation of milking and
the udder of the COW We make synop-
sis as follows:
To milk a COW ''clean" has always
been the ambition of the mixer, and
when the end was attained he was
perfectly satisfied. But to milk a
COW in cleanly way, although OF
equal importance, did not, in a large
per centage OF cases, come within the
scope of his consideration. l have for
example, seen good dairy cows quite
spoiled through bad, careless milking,
and have been quite astonished Ia
learn how few mixers. comparatively,
The star. (Reynoldsville, Pa.) 1892-1946, 1894-09-12

there are who understand anything
about the cows udder or milk ves-
sci. A word or two on this point
may not be out of place.
The udder OF the COW is divided in
to two chambers by an impervious
membrane. This dividing substance
runs in the same direction as the back
bone, and the milk from one chamber
cannot pass into the other. For this
reason it is advisable that the milksr
should operate, say, on the front and
hind teats on the side next to him,
and having emptied one chamber of
the cows vessel, should then proceed
with the other. This is not, however,
the general practice. II customary,
l believe, to operate on the teats OF
different chambers simultaneously, on
the ground that the method of pro-
cedure preserves the natural state OF
udder, whereas such contention is
quite contrary to fact. lam fully per-
suaded that the methed of milking
according this notion-is mainly re-
sponsible for much of the malforma-
ton in the udder of so many cows.
This, of course, is great evil, as il
detrac,s from the appearance of the
animals and lowers their money value
when offered for sale.

HARVESTING BUcKwHEAT.

Buckwheat is harvested in special
manner on account of the slow drying
of the grain and the ease with which it
will heat in a mass, as when il is stored
in bin. The cut crop is left in field
until it is dry enough to thrash, which
it does quite easily on account of the
thin and slender pedicels, or stems, of
the grain, which snap with exceeding
ease when they are dry. SO that it is
not usual to wait until the straw is
quite dy to thrash the crop in the field
or at the barn directly from the field,
as it is hauled. Then the still damp
grain is to be treated with caution to
prevent heating, which will occur very
easily. SO the grain is stored on the
barn floor in a shallow heap, or IN hol-
low bins, and frequently turned until
the cold weather removes the danger
of heating of the grain. n.-American

PROFITABLE CEREAL CROPS.

As result OF five years continu-
ous culture of wheat and oats, eight
trials of wheat and twenty-one of corn,
on soils varying widely in character,
the Ohio Station has reached the con-
clusion that at present prices of cereal
crops and of fertilizing materials re-
pectively, the profitable production of
corn, wheat and oats upon chemical
or commercial fertilizers or upon barn
yard manure, If its costs be proper
tionate to that of the chemical constit-
uents of fertility found in commercial
fertilizers, is n hopeless undertaking
unless these crops be grown IN sys-
tematic rotation with clover or sim
liar nitrogen-storing crop; and the
poorer the soil in natural fertility the
smaller the probability of profitable
crop production by means of artificial
fertilizers.

A READY MARKET FOR THE BEST.

Already market always exists for the
best. When tho farmer produces a
better article than the market con-
tains, he will not only secure good
price therefor, but the market will
seek him the next season. The amount
of fruit and vegetables, butter, cheese
and poor animals shipped to the large
cities is enormous, and prices fall be-
cause such articles cannot be sold.

nothing but what is in demand and of

A HORSE THAT DROPS HIS FOOD.

When horse slobbers when eating,
and drops the food when it is partly
chewed, the cause is in the teeth. The
teeth of any animal are subject to all
the wear and tear that our own teeth
are, and more especially when the
animals pasture on sandy land, as the
sand on the herbage grinds the teeth
very fast. Besides, the condition OF
health has much to do with the teeth,
and they will become sore or decayed
when the health is not good. The
remedy is to examine the teeth, and
IL any have broken and left sharp
edges or are decayed, the mouth is
inhamed and sore, they should be at
tended to. In the former case, the
teeth must be made smooth with a
rasp made for the purpose, and that
may be procured at the tool stores or
the harness-maker's. In the other
case, the teeth must be extracted or
otherwise treated by veterinarian.
or in many cases some cooling laxative
medicine will remove the trouble, the
most appropriate being EPSON salts
in one-pound dose, one given three
days after the other. Soft food, as
cut hay and meal, wetted, with mash
es, will be required until the teeth are
in good condition. - American Farm

II Might Have Been.

A withered leaf, n silkcn thead,
Some grasses frail and sere,
Are lying desolate and dead
On Loves fantastic bier.
But yet ceaseless song they sing

For, in the sweetest thoughts they bring,

A glove that dropped from fingers fair,
A ring with rubics get.

With tears Of sorrow wet
Her heart was light 40 mine alone
Hath learned to love aud grieve;
And so through lifes dull monotone,
The golden tress doth weave
"lt might have bcen!"
The boat lies idly Mt my feet,
Tho sky Is blue above,
The sunlit waves make music sweet
And all Is fair but Love;
And in the cup that memory takes
taste again the lees,
And one long silent chord wakes
And whispers to the breeze
at might have been!'
The tondest love the heart has missed
May come again some day,
Though eyes that wept and lips we've kisse
Have coldly turned away.
But in the love that lives apart
Through waste of weary years,
A voice will haunt the aching heart,
Aud murmur in its tears
at might have been!"

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.


Use tobacco dust and bonemeal lib.
orally about the squash vines.
Wax or bush sorts of beans must be
planted repeatedly to have success
sion.
Not more than four good melon
plants should be left to each hill.
Keep the ground well cultivated about

A little grain in addition to the lit
tie pasturage some stock get these

up the flesh
An Iowa stock grower says that the
"keynote of profitable stock growing
and farming can be summed up in one
word--clover
Ohio farmers have been investing
heavily in special variety of onions,
and find themselves raising superior

An animal that cannot yield profit

Do not let the steers begin to "fail

If you have not made provision for

The earliest strawberry runners
