From tho lancaster New Era,
Tho unusual rice In the price OF beef
cattle comes as silver lining to the dark
cloud which has hung over the farmers
sky for a numter OF years. The fatten.
Ing OF cattle has been very prominent
feature in Lancaster county farming for
many years. IL has been pursued from
esessity as well os profit. 1t has been
the means whereby the high culture OF
our magnificent farms has been kept up.
The true souree of the iarmer's income
lies In the great pile OF manure that lies
1 n his barnyard. Without II, his gains
would be quickly counted, and his rich
acres be soon exhausted. 1t is, SO to
speak his eheet anchor when all others
fail him.
10 make II he must buy cattle in the
fall, fatten them during the winter and
spring and then send them TO ths sham
bles. All the corn he raises 10 commonly
fed to these bullocks. AS rUie he is
content II he realizes the market price for
the corn and hay he hns fed to them.
Sometimes In O good season there is d.
rect cash profit besides, but not always
1t is to his great manure pile that he looks
for his profit tor 1t is that which really
suetalns the fertility OF his farm.
But this year there Ia profit at both ends
of the string. Stock cattle were low last
fall. the quatlons running all the way
from three to four cents per pound Sup.
pose the farmers bought the cattle at
thTSb CENTS buat WOulu mahe u iouu.poHhu
bullock cost $50. Suppose further. that
this animal has Increased In weight about
$50 pounds and that lie is now sold at six
cents per pound. we can, without entering
into M Gbstruse ejaculation, easily see the
animal which last fall cost $50 will to-day
sell for sSl. leaving very handsome
profit on the transaction in hard cash, to
say nothing OF the other advantages al
luded to.
The farmer who feeds from ten to
twenty builucks, tho profit from this tran.
saction will be very important matter
in many cases 1t will amount to as much
or more than hes been realized from the
rest of the years farming operations
Col. James Young. OF tho AIiddletown
farms, has moro than 800 head OF fat cattle.
1t will easly be seen what good thing
this rise IN the price OF beef cattle Will
mean to him. There are many farmers in
this county who have from twenty to

reason to be reioiced at the sudden and

/ In the spring of '04 after the severe
injury to fruit trees, we had all our
pear trees cut TO the. sound wood.
This was done on reesat least ten years
old with very large and fourishing
tops. The lower forks Of large limbs
and the bodies were all that was left
standing to some. We also introduce
ed nn1-r the bark 10 grains of calo-
nel. A very feeble growth was made
during last summer, and it looked like
every thiig was involved 10 much
doubt, bnt now our trees are making
a large and rapid growth of as fine
green wood and foliage as could posi-
bly, be desired. Our Keifer trees were
scarcely injured at all, and only few
branches had to be taken ont, and
they are today loaded with fruit. The
Pear is q, fruit that we have never
seen attacked by any insect, which
added to its great lusciousness as a
fruit, is great inducement to it's
more extended culture.
