show that the use Of tobacco had been

A Ledyard farmer, eleven miles south
of Norwich, Conn, bagged Il boot owl

night last week, the biggest, greediest.
most ferocious one probably ever taken
in the country. The bird had visited
his farmyard half Il dozen times after
nightfall, and on each visit picked up
one of the farmers far hens or plump
chickens, and went away to his home
in a hollow tree with his prey. Finally
he tackled n twelve pound turkey COB
bier. The turkey struggled with his
foe, however, and a fierce battle en-
sued in which the turkey was speedily
slain, but the owl was unable to get
away with his game, and after partly
piucking it, by the dry process" popu-

This is the sum we hear the Salzer
Seed Co. offer for a suitable name for
their wonderful new oats. The United
states Department of Agriculture says
SalZer's oats is the best OF 300 varieties
tested. \ great many farmers report
test yield OF POI bushels per acre last
year, and are sure this can be grown
and even more during 1898. Another
farmer writes us he cropped 1l2 bush
els OF Salzer's Marvel Spring Wheat on
two and one-half acres. At such yield
wheat pays at Boo per bu. One thing
