nard's ears as he put spurs to his horse
and dashed away up the stream in a d.

The cheer was the announcement of the

ted one of the most atrocious crimes
that can come under the jurisdiction of
a military court. Nothing can excuse
it. There may be something to palliate
it. I conjure you to speak before the
court brings in a verdict and names
your punishment.
"Mr. President" replied Maynard,
"for my act toward this army am &C.
countable to you as court martial con-
vened to try me; for my act as one of
right or wrong, of honor or dishonor,
am accountable only to tribunal with
which you have nothing to do Do not
waste valuable time. Before the sun

have more important work to do in

duty as a court, and do it with dis
patch.
There was not an officer present but
looked at Maynard with a curious ad-
miration. It was plain that he had sac
rificed himself, though it was not en-
tirely plain why. Even those who con-
demned him most bitterly seemed to
hesitate to bring in verdict which
would naturally carry with it the pun
ishment of death.
"You are mistaken, colonel said
one of them, referring to Maynard's
predictions. ''The enemy have been in

the Fact that many farmers sell loose

The Berkshire Hog.

From a paper prepared by Mr.. Jan es
Riley Of Thornton, Ind, at the r. quest
Of the National Berkshire Record As
ISOLATION, we take the following ex
tracts regarding the origin and early
history Of the Berkshire-a breed which
has always been "a fayorite In this Stat
Originally, they were represented a.
being of a buii, sandy or reddish brown
color, spotted with black, occasionally
tiwDy or white, spotted in the same
manner. They were coarse In the bone,
head rather large with heavy flop ears,
broad on back, deep In the chest, fiat
aides and long in the body, thick and
aeavy on both shoulders and hams,
we'll let down in the twist, brlstles and
oUg curly hair and rather short, stroOR
legs. Their meat was better marbled
than that of any other breed Of swine
IN England that IL, had u greater pro
portion of lean, freely intermixed with
fine streaks OF fat, which makes II
much more tender and juicy than II
would otherwise be. This very desira
ole characteristic Of the Berkshire,
namely, the excellent qualities OF their
meat, has been carefully maintained
through various stages of improve
ments-so much 30 that at the present
time they are superior TO any other
breed In this respect. They were from
time immemorial preferred to all other
swine there, as they are here at the
present time for choice hams and bacon.
They we're slow feeders and did not
ordinarily mature until they reach the
age of two and one-half or three years.
Oregon farmers will for the next six
months ship in a good many pure bred
Berkshires.

The 200 2, und Cow.

Replying TO why are Dainy Far.
mer's Disc, ursg,d d, Is the followingl
The flrst clue is that "stern fact'
that COW giving only 200 pounds Of
butter year will not do much to make
her owner rich or proud. True every
time aud many Intelligent contributors
have been trying for years to get
farmers to sell or give away such cows
In case good feeding all the year will
aot make 800 or 35O.pound cows Of
them.
They are Improbable nuisances, and
should be abated from every farm.
But II Is to he inferred that some have
such cows, and have had them for
many years, also, that they have aided
largely to bring him into his present /
poverty; and that, 80 far, he has no
idea Of giving them up for cows that
might do better. Indeed, le says that
such COW, kept on grass and hay. isis
doing welW The chief blame, he
thinks, rests with the price OF butter,
is cents pound. But most butter
fanclers would hesitate TO give even
l6 cents for the butter of 200 pound
COW, because such cows are not fed on
rich food, such as good judging con-
sumers think is necessary to the pro.
ductlon of first-class butter. 1t fol-
lows, naturally enough, that they are
Improbable, and they ought to be. be-
cause otherwise 1t would encourage
and promote a shiftless and cruel mode
of dairying. When the COW is capable
Of doing better work through good
feeding and care, she is partially
starved when she yields only 200
pounds Of butter year, aud the owner
Is treating her cruelty, and ought to be
punished In some way.

The Worlds Progrehs.

A pioneer farmer Of this county haS
handed us the following to show that
the world does progress:
Alexander Wells, an old citizen OF
our neighboring town of Wellsville,
Ohio, has IN his possession u copy OF
an interesting and novel document is
sued by the school board Of the town OF
Lancaster, this state, In 1928. The
question OF steam railroads was then In
its inclplent stages Of agitation, and a
club Of young men had been formed
for the purpose of discussing the points
at issue, and desired the use Of the
school house for purposes Of debate.
This was looked upon by the members
OF the school board as an innovation
bordering upon sacrilege, AS indicated
by the reply of the body TO the request,
which Is the document in the possession
Of Mr.. Wells. IL reads as follows:
"You are welcome to the use of the
school house to debate all proper ques-
tions In, but such things as railroads
aud telegraphs are lmposslbilities and
rank inhdelty. There Is nothing In
the word Of God about them. II God
had designed that his intelligent crea-
ture should travel at the fnghtful speed
OF fifteen miles an hour. by steam, lie
would clearly have soretold II through
His holy prophets"
ut is device Of Satan to lead Inn
mortal souls down to hell"
Such sentiments possibly rfiected
the feeling to some extent In the days
of slxty'five years ago, but they sound
strangely at the present time when the
"devlce OF Satan" is daily carrying peo-
Pile over the land at the rate of sixty or
seventy miles an hour. The world has
