II Is a pity we cannot see ourselves
As others see us. So far % mere per-
sonal appearance Is concerned, a mir
ror is a great help, but unless one has
very complicated reflector there is
NO chance to get an idea Of anything
but the front view. The opera girl
who knows she Is to occupy the first
seat in the box recognizes the fact
that the most conspicuous part of her
toilet is the back Of her gown and her
coiffure, and with the aid Of her maid
and her tbree-faced mirror she dresses
herself accordingly.
But the ordinary woman who dresses
herself for shopping or church too Of
ten forgets that there is nearly half OF
her gown which she il unable to see,
even with the aid Of her hand-glass
There is story to the effect that a
certain young man said OF young
lady of his acquaintance:
II often think I'd marry her, but her

doesn't fit in the back"

HERE AND THERE.

Pigs raised by mother that has
fully attained her growth will have
better start at weaving time than
those from half-grown SOW.
1t is safe to say that ninety-niLo
farmers out Of every hundred never
have any fair appreciation of the pos.
sibilities of intelligent dairying.
breeding from immature stock has
tendency to degenerate the offspring
and gradually deteriorate their size,
vitality, growth and development.
"A small. fat sheep will always
bring better price than large, poor
one; but If the larger sheep is also
made fat 1t will command much bet
ter price.
Whenever q check in growth oc-
ours the animal must be stunted in .
degree, and whenever there in fall
ing off in condition there must be .
check in growth.
The advantage Of always keeping
pigs thrifty and growing is that they
are always ready for the knife, and q
better advantage can be taken Of the
market.
AN exchange says that solitary
confinement in dark stable has a
tendency to make a horse vicious. 1t
affects the brain as it does the brain Of
human being in such confinement.
There is no need of making butter
at loss with so wide demand for q
gilt-edge article; still, some people con.
tinually suffer this loss, and don't seem
to know just how to locate nor to rem
edy 1t.
No farm is complete without .
roller. II you have none, and do not
feel able to buy one, 20 the the woods
and make one sometime when the
ground is too wet to work. There are
very few seasons the roller is not
needed.
"A cord Of farm.yard manure
weighs upon the average about three
tons. The plant food supplied in one
cord is, therefore, about as follows:
Nitrogen, 81 pounds; phosphoric acid,
Is pounds; potash, "a pounds. A com
mon two-horse cartload weighs about
one ton.
An experienced sheep-grower finds
II q good rule to retain about 10 per
cent. of the best eve lambs, and to sell
that proportion Of the Oldest sheep
every year. This keeps up the infusion
of young blood and steadily enhances
tho value of the flock.

COTTON PROSPECTS.
A Few Words Of Congratulatlon - th
Cotton Grower.

A Few Words Of Congratulatlon - he
Cotton Grower.
Cotton planters arc to be congratu-
lated on the prospects, Of . good crop
this year, and much better prices than
they received for considerable por.
tion Of last years CROP The bearish
feeling in the market at present Is due
to b marked improvement in the con-
dition of the cotton fields Of the south
In most sections the crop is late, but
comparatively little damage is report
ed frosts, worms, washouts. rains, dry
weather or other cause The effect Of
favorable crop reports on the market
may put prices down some, but they
are not likely to stay down even with
continued favorable reports.
There are two reasons for believing
that the market will not return to the
prices of four or Ave months ago. One
is based on the increased activity Of
the cotton mills on both sides Of the
Atlantic. The demand in Europe for
cotton is strong and 1t is likely to con-
tinue SO throughout the year. On this
side every mill is running and has or
ders ahead to keep 1t going for months.
This is very different from the situa-
tion last summer. For several weeks
the mills of two of the principal cot
ton manufacturing cities Of New En-
gland were closed on account of .
strike. All summer long the country
suffered from business depression and
good prices were out of the question.
With the restoration Of confidence
came orders to replenish depleted
stocks and the cotton market has ad-
vanced nearly fifty per cent. in conss-
quence.
With continuance Of general bust.
ness prosperity both here and in Eu-
rope, the only thing likely to put the
market down very much would be an
enormous crop Of new cotton. There is
good ground for believing that this
years cotton crop will be the lightest
in several years. Even should the
yield per acre be as large as it was last
year, the country's total production
would be fully 10 per cent. less than
the crop of 1s94-95. This fact alone
should tend to keep the market up,
particularly at this season, when the
result of the new crop is unknown.
According to the Financial Chroni.
cle's estimates-based on reports from
several hundred correspondents from as
many different points-this years cot
ton crop acreage is 1lX per cent. below
last years. The total acreage Is
placed at 17,767,66s acres. or nearly
1880, 900 less than we had last year.
This is the smallest cotton acreage
the country has had since 1884.
The Chronicle reports that North
Carolina has reduced her acreage as
much as 20 per cent. Texas had 4, 475,.
600 acres in cotton last year. She pro.
duces nearly a third of all the cotton
grown in the United States. and al
most a fourth of the worlds entire
crop Her acreage this year is placed
at q, s,os2, 1876 acres, q reduction of II per
cent Our next largest producer,
Georgia, reports reduction Of Is; and
Mississippi, next In rank as q cotton
producer. one of 10 per cent. Florida's
reduction is only per cent, but her
cotton acreage is never large. Every
other state shows a decrease of not less
than Q per cent; and also every terri
tory except Oklahoma.

On Intimate Terms.-A little girl
Ave or six years old stood at gate on
Cass avenue the other day rs police
man came along, and just at that mo-
ment dog came trotting up and sat
down as if at home. That's no lost
dog" explained the child, as she saw
the officer cycling the canine. "It's
your dog, perhaps?" he inquired. "No,
sir, It's not our dog. but we visit back
and forth with the family in which he
resides!"-Detroit Free Press.

Ono Way to Rid Poultry of vormIn.

I will tell you how l completely
eradicated the biggest crop Of lice Of
the large kind ever saw on u lot Of
fowls, says writer in the Poultry
Keeper. took a pound of smoking
tobacco and put it in fifty-poupd lard
tub, poured on about two quarts Of hot
water. covered it up and let 1t stand
over night. The next day being .
warm one, filled up the tub within .
few inches Of the top with warm wa
ter; then l took each fowl singly and
dipped them in the soup up to
where they part their back hair.
or, to be exact, up to their eyes, letting
them get thoroughly soaked with it.
then lifted them out and let them
drain. I served every one the same,
and can say that completely
cleaned out the lice and did not hurt
my fowls in the least. They Gil did
we'll after 1t, and at present have not
got louise of any kind whatever on
them. The pound Of tobacco was suf.
ficient for sixty fowls, the number I
dipped. l filled the tub up with warm
water the second time after had
dipped about thirty of them.

A runaway occurred here Tuesday
night. Two drummers from Troy were
driving horse they had hired in Ben.
nington, when it became unmanageable
from the harness breaking, it was
thought, and ran, bringing up full tilt
against Rev. A. G. Fields house. The
men were thrown out, and the horse fell
from the shock, but was up and away
before the man who had been thrown out
last could gather himself up. The horse
was caught after a time and no one was
seriously hurt that we have heard of.
We would advise gentlemen from Troy
not to race with country boys down the

was the outcome of a widespread but
temporary misunderstanding, but it
proves that the anger of the people at
Democracy's criminal indifference, care
lessness, recklessness and stupidity in
handling our industrial affairs is per-
manent and enduring. This year, with
better work in shops and mills and
mines, and for a good many better
wages, the Democratic party was en-
cOuraged to believe that displeasure
with its National policy had passed awav,
and it could by herculeau efforts pull it
self together for victory. Its defeat is
more crushing than before, and is de.
mand for the restoration of the true
American policy of protection that will
brook no interference. States which
cast about one half the entire electoral
vote gave Republican majorities on Tues
day aggregating over half million. II.
linOis bad no general election, but the
10000 Republican majority in Chicago
spoke for the State and its "a electoral
votes. Iowa with Is electoral votes and
a United States Senator to elect, gave
about 10000 Republican majority. Kan
sas, with 10 electoral votes, gave about
10000: Kentucky, with - electoral votes
and United States Senator now Demo-
cratic, gave at least 5000; Maryland with
s electoral votes and United States Sen
atOr, now Democratic, gave about 10000,
Massachusetts, with 10 electoral votes,
gave GA, 900; Nebraska. with electoral
votes, gave about 10000; New Jersey,
with 10 electoral votes, gave about 26,
600; New York, with 30 electoral votes,
gave about 10000; Ohio, with % elector-
al votes, and United States Senator
now Democratic, gave 10000; Pennsyl.
vania, with 30 electoral votes, gave no.
600, and Utah, which will add electoral
votes and two United States Senators,
has at least a Republican Legislature.
The electoral votes assured by these
elections, with the others that are not
in doubt are more than enough to make
Republican victory next year overwhelm-
ing, and the choice of two Republican
instead of three Democratic Senators,
with the addition of two from Utah, will
make the Senate safely Republican
