MORTGAGE
LIFTERS!'
At a recent meeting of the
BARNSVILLE Conn INSTI-
TUTE paper was read on
" Small Fruits as
Mortgage LifterS >

The author of the paper said
that in 1890 he purchased Io4 acres
of land that was industriously
producing elders and briers. A
portion was cleaned up and planted
in berries. In 1892 the gross re-
ceiptS were S2,45I, and the net re-
ceipts, after all labor and super
vision was paid for, amounted to
Is per cent. upon capital invested
in farm, stock and implements,
and no account was taken of milk,
butter, eggs, poultry and fruit
consumed on the farm, nor for
food for the stock. In 1893 the
net receipts amounted to 23d per
cent. On the investment.
The owner of the land says the
berries will pay for the land in a
few years.
This item is interesting to us
just now, as we are Offering land
that is recognized all over the
State as the best for raising small
fruits, to wit:

TELESCOPES OF THE FUTURE
At the Royal Institution Sir
Howard Grub, in a lecture, recent
ly discussed the great telescopes of
the future. The main point of his
new proposal is to mount a colossal
instrument so that it practically
floats on a liquid support. In this
way even the greatest reflectors and
refractors could be properly sustain
ed. They would, it is believed,
move with a smoothness and stead
ness not attainable with supports
ordinarily employed. BY this
method Sir ii. Grub proposes to
render the large telescopes more
suitably adapted for photographing
the heavens. In the ordinary Wis.,
ual use of the telescope slight ir-
Irregularities in the movements of
the instruments are merely incon-
venient, but for the accurate de-
mands of photography absolute pre-
cision in movement is required.
When this is wanting the result of
the photography is to represent
each star as o streak instead of a
round, sharp dot, which the proper
ly exposed plate should produce

The action of the trust in closing

turally causes much comment The
Republicans are saying the new tariff
bill is more favorable to the trust

so (Which we deny how is it that the

not find this necessary and it made no

Havemeyer's statement is true and

claim it does. There is an inconsist-

; SUGAR wRUsTsCHEME.

President Havemeyer. of the Ameri-

given orders for the closing down
at once Of half of the refineries
under its control. Just what this
means it is very hard to say. Mr..
Havemayer says that the price of
sugar is below the cost of production.
and that FOR some time the company
has been working the refineries at a.
considerable i6ss. We do not assume
10 say that this explanation is not
correct but any thing said by the
