Apple Notes.

An advance in the price of apples to
81 80 a barrel all through for good lots
has made quite a stir in the fruit trade.
A large quantity has been sold at this
price and is now being delivered for
shipment. After quite heavy purchases,
however, the demand has dropped of
again and sales bid fair to be slower for
a time. Later on the trade no doubt
will be active again, and possibly at
another slight advance in price.
There are still some good lots of Bald
wins left in growers hands though it is
probable that larger part of this kind
and of the Greetings, Kings and other of
the early winter sorts have been sold.
The crop of Ben Davis and Russets is
still unsold and will await anticipated
higher markets later on. There are also
some good lots of Northern Spy in grow
ers hands
Fruit that has been packed thus far
has generally been found in good order
though giving signs that it would not
continue in that condition SO late in the
winter as is sometimes the case,-4KaiHc

Stabling Cows.

There is no excuse for any man failing
to protect his cows from the severe
weather, because there is no spot on earth
where mich COW can subsist but which
furnishes material for protecting from
snow and winds. A COW does not re-
quire hard coal fire and a feather bed
for comfort. She enjoys a brown stone
front, to be sure; but she enjoys a sod
stable, dug out on hillside or a stall
in straw stack, quite as well, if it is kept
clean and dry. No man who owns one
COW is so poor that he cannot build a
shelter of some kind and get six feet of
rope or stanchon for tie, The trouble
with great many farmers is they are
waiting till they build that two-story barn
before they begin to stable the cows.
How foolish. Stable the cows and they
will build the barn out of the increased
profits which they will yield from kind
treatment.

in front Of the Saarman house the tire
OF Cox's front wheel exploded with a
loud report. The young lady let out
a scream and looking either be

horse into a furious pace, and on ar
irving at Genoa circulated the report
that the ghost Of Mrs. Saarman had
come out Of the door of the house. and

head had fired. The report Of the mis-
tol was so load that it frightened her

QUEER BANKING METHODS.
Startling Revelations In the wiillmantiS
Bank Investigation.

WTLLniANTIc, Conn, July e4-In the
superior court States Attorney Hunter
applied for an injunction restraining the
officers OF the Dime Savings bank from
carrying on business longer, for an order
reyoking the charter, and for disposition
of the bank property. Saturday morning
was set for hearing on the motion.
There has been several startling revela-
tions in the Dime bank mystory, among
them being the announcement that tho
bank was insolvent months ago.
On July last the term of office OF II. a.
Bucks as bank commissioner expired. He
declared the bank solvent at the time.
Commissioner Crofut's latest exanina-
tious disprove this statement, and his dis
closures caused Mr.. Bucks, who was
elected president Of the bank on Monday
afternoon, to resign.
Commissioner Crofut also discovered
that the banks bookkeeping has been Of
the lowest character. No interest what
ever has been paid on many notes, and
thousands of dollars In unsecured per-
sonal notes have been found. Among
those are 81, 900 In notes signed by Will
INN Bucks, son of tho ex. commissioner.
II has also come out that Cashier Walden
advanced Sl6,O)0 of the banks money for
the purchase of the Morrison Machine
company estate by Attorney Thomas j.
Kelly. Mr.. Kelly appeared at meeting
Of the directors and explained that ho
acted as Mr.. Waldens agent in selling
