past six weeks or SO at the active move
ments of the Hon. Frank F. Davis, who
has been skirmishing through the
wards and precincts to secure pledges
of active workers to support him for
the congressional nomination against

Davis had already got together quite a
formidable little machine for prose-
cutting the coming campaign. He has
stolen a march on Uncle Loren in one
direction, and that is, in declaring
himself for free coinage =. of silver.
Nevertheless, it is supposed that the
sapient congressman has a long lever

FACTORY CLOSED.
Six Hundred Tons of First Quality Starch
Was Made This Season.

Six Hundred Tons of First Quality Starch
Was Made This Season.
The starch factory has shut down for
this season after most successful run.
That is, it was successful so far as
operation is concerned but whether it
will be successful season financially
the future will decide. The managers
have not disposed of any Of the pro-
duct, the market price being below the
actual cost of manufacture. Six hun
dred tons of A No. starch were made.
Potatoes yield an average of nine
pounds per bushel so the amount of po-
tatoes purchased by the company
reaches very nearly to $4,000 bushels.
The average price paid was about nine
and one-quarter cents per bushel MAX
ing the amount the farmers received
for their crop about s12,500. Shippers
have purchased enough more to place
an estimate of the falls receipts for the
potato crop alone at $4,000. There is
probably still remaining in the farm
ers' hands from one-fourth to one-third
of the crop, which is being held for the
opening of the spring market. The
factory is being overhauled prepara-
tory to the anticipated spring run, and
the managers look forward to a 60 day
rush if potatoes are not too high in
price when the season opens. With
the experience gained this fall 100000
bushels of potatoes could be manufac-
tured into starch as easily as the 1885,,
900 were handled this season. The hot
blast is being increased in capacity so
that the starch may be taken from the
dry kiln more rapidly thus materially
aiding in the increase of the product.
The starch factory has served the farm
ers we'll this fall in helping them to
dispose of an overproduction and the
UNION hopes the managers will lose
nothing.

Cleansing the Surgeons Hands.

In Germany the usual method 1or sur
peons to clean their hands is that OF FUR
binrer. 1t consists in brushing the hands
and nails with soap and hot water ana
then dipping them in an so per cent aico,
hol solution and finally washing with
per cent sublimate of mercury, each part
of this proceeding to last one minute. nc,
Gently Reinecke of Leipsic has asserted
that sure disinfection of the hands may
be obtained by rubbing with alcohol only
and washing afterward with pure sterlllzed
water. The alcohol owes its power to ITS
action in dissolving the sebaceous sub
stance on the surface of the skin and en-
abling the bacteria which adhere to 1t to be
easily washed away. Instead OF brushes
which are difficult to clean and which IT.
ritate the hands, he recommends loo1ah
sponges. Another reformer in this matter
is DR.. Schleich, who rejects all brushing
and only washes the hands with a soap IN
vented by himself, which consists OF 40
nestle soap Zone part), marble powder
(three parts) and lysol q per cent of the

The Fox Chase.

Mr.. John Williams is the "boss fiddler
of our community. When once the fox
hunter hears him play the Fox Chase"
he goes right home and kills his dog
While John is tuning his fiddle and 'rosin-
ing" his bow he outlines the fox race
that he will jump the fox near tho table
land on tho top of Oak mountain, and in
the center of this tableland there is "a high
knoll that they may see around them for
half mile and you will have full view
with the minds eye; the dogs will lump
the fox and will circle around three times,
then strike n due north course to Pine
mountain, seven miles away, until the
yelp of the hounds is almost lost to the
ear. Suddenly the fox turns and comes
straight back, and the yelps become plain
er and louder; the hunters in the mean
time must keep their place on the knoll.
for the fox is coming right toward them.
Now the fox is coming; the yelps of doz-
en- hounds are heard. On they come-fast-
er and fastar-here they come. right
through the crowds, under their fcet-the
whoops and yells are answered by the spec
tators, and the noise by the fiddle and dogs
and hunters is equal to the storm around
Cape Morn. The fox Is caught.-Talbot-
