A BLACK EYE FOR THE SULPHUR REMEDY.

W. $. Bullard of Bridgeport forwards the following letter. Itspeaks for itself :: U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE,
 DIVISION OF ENTOMOLOGY.
 Washington, D. C., August sth, 1891. W. s. Bullard, 3Ol Lafayette street, Bridge port, Conn. Dear sir-Your letter of 7th in stant has been received. The boring Of holes into trees and plugging them up with sulphur has no effect whatsoever, except to injure the trees. The sulphur is not taken into circulation, does not affect the taste ot the leaves and in no way acts upon the ln' sects which iced upon the leaves. The vital ity of this empirical and ridiculous remedy is astonishing. Yours very truly,-lL. O.. Howard, entomologist.

TROLLEY ON THE BRAIN.

One hears little but "trolley" now. Everybody has an opinion to express, but few dare to express any antagonis- tic sentiments. The meetings held on the call of the selectmen amounted to nothing, except in appointing an advis- ory committee. This committee has met with the selectmen and formulated stipulations to the Traction company, which have not met with the approval of the people so far as keard. They re- quire single track, with turnouts mile apart, track to be in the middle of the street, poles to be of iron and the tracks to be paved with asphalt between the rails, girder rails are also required. All of these are directly contrary to the ad- vice of Engineer Hill, the expert engag- ed by the town. Of course single tracks will take up less of the driveway, but from point of service, there is no ques- tion but that double tracks will prove much more satisfactory, and public opin- ion seems to be decidedly growing that way. Iron poles are decidedly more slightly but more dangerous. The ac- tion of the committee looks suspiciously like an attempt to keep the trolley out. By the way the selectmen having noti- fled the company to cease distributing material along the highway, why don't they show their backbone. Ties are dis tributed in piles all the way from South port to Fairfield. It is conspicuous trick of the company to ride right over all agreements.

The union picnic of the Fairfield, Greens Farms and Greenfield churches, at Parlor Pock grove, on Thursday of last week, was well attended, about 400 being present. Most of these went up by a special train from Bridgeport, but many drove in their private convey ances. All united in pronouncing it the most enjoyable picnic yet held. The rain kindly went around another way and clouds screened the hot sun. The interesting feature of the day was the ball game, between two hines, explained by the Sunday school uperintendents. The game was necessarily short, but terribly severe. The batting was so ter rifle as fo use up two balls. Caterer Harris won the hearts of all who had any dealings with him and the unanI- nous vote of the schools will be for Parlor Rock, next year.

HAND IN HAND.

When spring was young and life was new,
Love was our only friend and guide:
bweet were the bowers he led us through,
And sweet our going side by side.
Then summer came, golden flood,
And still we followed hand in hand;
Love was the music in our blood,
And love the glory Of the land.
Rich autumn fell, and winter drove
The frulty ripeness from the air:
But wrapped in warm, soft robes OF love,
What rocked We II the world was baroi
So round again we come to spring,
Strong for another years emprise,
The birds are whist to hear US sing,
The sun Ia dazzled by our eyes
For, hand in hand, where'er we CO.
Earth under foot and Heaven above
Love is the only life we know,
And every breath we breathe Is love.

South church of Boston, who died in
1859, and q second Chief Justice Samuel
Sewall, who died in 1914. His family
for generations have been scholarly
men. Mr.. Sewall, who graduated from
Harvard college In 1874, was the sew
enth in direct line to receive his de-
grees from that institution.
Mr.. Sewall is by profession lawyer,
having taken the degree of LII. B. at
the Harvard law school after finishing
his other course. For some years he
has been associated with Mrs. Sewall
in the conduct of classical school for
girls at Indianapolis which was one of
the first private schools in the west to
fully meet the highest collegiate re-
quirements for admission. Mr.. Sewall
does good deal Of literary work, and
is q successful lecturer on literary
and social topics. He and his wife are
the best of comrades and in all their
undertakings work together Mr.. Sc
wall is especially interested in his wife's
public work, in fact, is quite as anxious
for the success of all that enlists her
effort as she is herself.
One of the first, the best known and
the ablest women lawyers in this coun-
try was the late aMyra Bradwell, the
founder of the Chicago Legal News,
which she edited and conducted for
more than twenty years. It was her
interest in all that pertained to her
husbands work that first led Mrs,
Bradwell to study law. Judge Brad
well, who is self-made man, had not
finished his law course when he mar
ried, and his wife took up the study
with him. One day to her great sur
prise her husband said after they had
discussed some legal points together:
"You are as good lawyer as am;
why don't you apply for admission
to the bar?" That was the Begin
ming of Mrs. Bradwell's career as a
lawyer, for she acted on her husbands
advice, and although it was some time
before she was admitted to the bar she
planned and established her paper,
which always ranked as one of the best
publications of its kind in this country.
Judge Bradwell was admitted to the
Illinois bar nearly forty years ago. In
1854 he was elected county judge of
Cook county by the largest majority
that any judge had ever received in
the county up to that time. In 1865 he
was reelected for four years, and in
1873 he was elected to the legislature
and was reelected in 1875. Judge
Bradwell has always held advanced
views as to the rights of women, and
when he was in the legislature he in
troduced bill, which was passed,
making women eligible to all school
offices, and also one, which became a
law, making women eligible to be
appointed notaries public He was
one of the founders of the Union
League club of chicago, and was the
first president of the board of direc-
tors. He has been president of the
Chicago Bar association; Of the Illi-

Among the distinguished women Of
the present day there is but small
proportion who are not presiding over
happy homes as the devoted wives of
men Of character and attachments.
Indeed, 1t is doubtful if among the
same number Of women, selected in
discriminatory from any other class,
there would be found as many who are
rs expressly happy in their domestic
relations
Take, for example, the famous or
.ganizer, educator and brilliant
scholar, May Wright Sewall, and her
husband, Theodore i. Sewall. It
would, indeed, be difficult, If not i'm
possible, to find two people better
suited to and with each other than Mr..

The brooder house should be ten feet

is cheaper. and may be arranged so as
to roll up in favorable weather. In

answer, however. The position of the

DORSET HORN SHEEP.

A Breed Which Is Comparatively I'M
known in America.
From Purbeck, on the Dorset coast
OF England, to the fertile Wales of West
Dorset, these sheep have been bred
from time immemorial In the fall OF
1885, so ewes and rams were brought
to America, landing at Markham, Ont,
Canada. Not until 1887 were they in
troduced into the United States. There
are at this date over 1000 Dorsets in
this country, scattered over 20 states
Larger importations were made this
year than ever before, and they ere be-
coming very popular with the flock
masters.
Great improvements have been made
in these sheep within the past 20 years.
They fatten readily, and incur but lit
tie risk in lambing, while their lambs
mature early. Barrenness and losses in
lambing are so rare that from $50 to
100 lambs may with degree of Ger.
tainty be calculated on for every hun
dred ewes placed with rams. Their
fecundity is SO remarkable that it is
sometimes possible to get two crops
