Clipped and Condensed.

A GOOD COW will pay her way even
on high-priced land, but weed out the
improbable ones. Be well prepared to
make test of what your cows are doing
for you, and always keep some promis-
ing young heifers coming on.
If there are half-dead limbs on the
trees, says the Practical Farmer, it is
right to cut them out, but to lop off
limbs right and left, which are healthy,
but not growing, is going to cripple the
tree severely. If the trees are not in
the natural end of their growth through
age, what they need is manure and
cultivation.
MILK as food for pigs has feeding
value far beyond it's actual food ele-
ments if given in the proper combina-
ton with other rations, but it is great
waste to rear pigs exclusively upon it,
no matter how plentiful it may be.
Middlings and grass should be fed with
it, and so double the amount of pigs
kept with the same milk.
THE care of fowls is not only rest
and recreation to many of our wives
and daughters, but it is medicine it.
self to scores who have been seeking for
health and strength through other means
in vain. Just the occupancy of the mind
with an interesting and profitable pur-
suit is much to those who have been
pining under enforced confinement all
their lives.
DR.. j. p. BROWN, in american Bee
Journal, says: The bee when out for
aging never acts on the offensive-al-
ways on the defensive. But when its
hive is threatened to be disturbed, or
its stores taken, or when excited by
disagreeable odors, or by persons stand.
ing in its range of flight, or by striking
at it or pinching it, ETC., its action may
be both defensive and offensive.
AN experiment with fertilizers is
more instructive when practiced on the
farm than at the experiment station.
Five dollars expended on small plat
of ground in the use of fertilizers on
selected crops or plants will enable the
farmer to learn facts that may save him
hundreds of dollars, as we'll as largely
increase his yields. The only way to
break off from old practices and i'm
prove, without mourning risk, is to ex-
pertinent.
VETERINARY surgery is now SCI
ence, and valuable animals are operated
upon whenever it can be done to ad.
vantage instead of destroying them.
The day of the "horse doctor" is passed,
and the modern veterinary surgeon
must receive diploma from some col.
lege that entities him to it by his study
and practice. Diseases of animals are,
in consequence, better understood than
formerly, and there are also fewer losses
among the animals from diseases.
The majority of farmers keep too
many horses for the work they have to
do, too many cows for their dairy prod
uct, too many hogs for the pork they
have to put in the barrel, and too many
hens for the value of the eggs and poul-
try they have to sell. Are not these
reasons enough why 80 many cannot
make farming pay? If they can lessen
the expense of keeping a large stock
and yet get the same product, there will
be profit instead of loss on all their
farming operations.

AGRICULTURAL.
Mary Smith,

Away down East, where I was reared among my
Yankee kith
There used to live a pretty girl whose name was
Mary Smith.
And though it's many years since last saw that
pretty girl,
And though feel I'm sadly worn by Western strife
and whirl
Still oftentmes think about the old familiar place,
Which oitentimes seemed the brighter for Miss
Mary's pretty face,
And in my heart feel once more revivihed the
glow
used to feel in those old times when was Mary's
On Friday night I'd drop around to make my weekly
call,
And though came to visit her, I'd have to see 'em
with Mary's mother sitting here, and Marys father
there,
The conversation tagged, so far as I'm aware.
Sometimes I'd hold her worsted, sometimes we'd
play at games,
Sometimes dissect the apples which we named each
others names.
Oh, how l loathed the shrilltoned clock that told
me when to gol
Twas ten O'Clock at half past eight when was
Mary's beau
And Mary should these lines of mine seek out your
hiding place,
God grant they bring the old sweet smile back to
your pretty face;
God grant they bring you thoughts of me, not as
am to-day,
with faltering step and dimming eyes and aspect
grimly gray,
But thoughts that picture fair and full of life
and glee
As we in the oden time-as you shall always
be.
Think Of me ever, Mary, the boy you used to
know
When time was feet and life was sweet and was
Mary's beau. Eugene Field.

SPECIMEN CASES.. H. Clifford,
New Cassel, Wis, was troubled with
neuralgia and rheumatism, his stomach
was disordered, his liver was affected
to an alarming degree, appetite fell
away, and he was terribly reduced in
flesh and strength. Three bottles of
Electric Btters cured him. Edward
Shepherd, Harrisburg, ILL.,, had a run
ming sore on his leg of eight years
standing. Used three bottles of Elec-
trio Bitters and seven boxes of Buck
lens Arnica Salve, and his leg is sound
and well. John Speaker, Catawaba,
Ohio, had five large fever sores on his
leg. Doctors said he was incurable.
One bottle of Electric Bitters and one
box of Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured
him entirely. Sold at G. Blakely's
drugstore, Montpelier, VT.

SunhOWers.

l am undecided yet whether could
get more off piece of ground by plant
ing sweet corn, or even ordinary field
corn, or by planting sunhowers; but 1
want the latter anyway. l like to see
them grow and produce their great
disks, often over foot in diameter. l
like to have the seed, too, to feed to
my hens in the fall, to make them shell
out the eggs, and get fat, and get their
feathers sleek and glossy. And if 1 had
enough sunfower seed, would readily
find use for it to feed cattle, or horses,
or any other stock. So you can find
quite little patch of sunflowers on my
place (the large black Mammoth Rus
sian) every season. This year l have
used them as a dividing line between
sweet corn and the ordinary varieties.
There can be no question, either, that a
very superior quality of oil, for table
and other uses, could be extracted from
sunfower seeds, and it is quite possible
that the crop will sooner or later be
grown extensively for oil-making pur-
poses. 1 myself would gladly use the
oil as salad oil, if l could get it, as do
not like the taste of olive oil, and do not
always have chance to produce poppy
oil. The crop is an easy one to grow,
and it has few enemies, if you gather
the heads promptly before the smaller
birds take more than their share. l am
not disposed to find fault with them if
they only take small percentage. Sum-
flowers grow on almost any kind of SOIL
Black muck, even if too wet for corn, is
well suited for sunfower growing, and
often produces an immense yield of
stalk and seed.-T. Greiner, in Farm
and Fireside.

CABBAGE may be protected against
the cabbage worm by watching for the
white butterflies and destroying them.
This may appear as tedious work, but
nevertheless it is practiced by many
growers with excellent results, being
more economical than endeavoring to
destroy the worms in the cabbages.

Favorable Outlook For the South
ern Trade, and Sales Improved.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, Jan. 5.-The Age
Of this date contains reports from
some 800 leading manufacturers OF
iron and steel hardware machinery
and railway rolling stock as to the
condition OF their business since
midsummer, the proportion OF it
with the south, and the eXtent,and
significance Of the prospects for
1895.
The tone of the responses is cheer
ing. Broadly speaking, about IS
per cent Of the reports speak OF
some measure of Improvement in
conditions and prospects and where
the gains in business are explicit
ly stated they are generally given
at 20 to 30 per cent, but prices are
low and not promising for the i'm
mediate future. The hardware
trade brings out rather conflicting
reports. There is much complaint
about prices on all hands, but spec
tally among nail and barbed wire
manufacturers. The volume Of
business has, on the whole, in.
creased substantially and the pros
poets may be regarded as reason
ably fair. For machine tools
some decidedly cheering reports
are made. In steam specialties
there has been a slow but steady
improvement since last summer
and further gradual growth OF de-
mand is looked for.

SPINNING sCRArTsKIN.
PoIack and Russ Make it Warm for
the Manager Who Broke HIS
Promises

PASsAIC, n. V, Jan. 5.-Recently
NJ. F. Burns, a wealthy coal dealer
in New York, boughta tract Of land
on Garfield and BOgart Heights, a
settlement on the Bergen side OF
the Passaic river opposite this city,
and built Is houses on 1t. The
settlement presented thrifty ap-
pearance to the casual observer.
AS fast as the cottages were COM
pleted they were rented to Russian
and Polish Jews. With the advent
of these foreigners the Garfield
clothing company Incorporated. r.
Schattskin, manager Of the land
company, is also the head OF the
clothing company and to secure
tenants for the company's houses
he offered free transportation and
promised the Jewish families
steady employment in the clothing
factory. Up to two weeks ago
work was plentiful; then it sud-
denly dropped of and the factory
was closed and the people were
destitute and clamored for an op-
pOrtunity to earn enough to keep
the wolf from the door. Becoming
weary Of such treatment and prom
ises being unkept committee was
sent to him with instructions to
tell the manager that unless work
was furnished his employees and
their furniture would be packed
and shipped to New York at his ex-
pense. The conference was un-
satisfactory, and when the COM
mittee reported that Schattskin
would offer no relief the people be-
came frantic and stormed the
managers home. Men and women,
armed with scissors, knives, pis-
tolls and clubs, surrounded the
house. They nearly forced their
way in and made Schattskin a
prisoner. Judge Readio, Of Gar
field, was informed that riot was
in progress and he fastened to the
place and read the riot act to the
mob. The crowd then dispersed
The mob was formidably armed
and one man carried a rope, with
which his companions said they
intended hanging Schattskin.
Judge Readio swore in number
of citizens as deputy marshals and
headed b. constable Emmons they
arrested five Of the ring leaders
and locked them up in the Hack.
ensack jail. Six Of the deputies
guarded Schattskin's house last
night. The manager and his
family were much alarmed and
have demanded the protection OF
the authorities.

From Silence to Silence.

RAILWAY, n. j., Jan. 5.-Theo-
philus Page is dead, aged nearly
80 years. He was known as "The
silent man" This name was given
him through his inclination to
maintain silence. He invariably
answered with ayes" or "No." He
commenced to sell the New York
morning papers here in 1881. In
early life he was school teacher,
having graduated from Williams
College. 1t is supposed that i'll
requited love caused him to act
in the strange manner that he
did. He was misery and lived in
small room alone. In one in
stance he is said to have dunned
man for p years before obtain
ing pay for some papers he had
sold. He was regular attendant
OF church, being Presbyterian.
When the great bell Of the church
was purchased, he gave $500 to-
wards it. He was led to the large
donation through a wealthy man
remarking that he would give as
much as rage.

just adopted the name OF "Tree
Planters" to take the place
of "Bug-eaters," as being more
emblematic Of the people OF the
state, and is now endeavoring to
bring about the use Of that appel
lation as a name for Nebraska.
