In announcing the result OF the case OF
Mrs. Schoepper against the Hancock

day said that several attorneys were
surprised at the action Of the court ia
taking the case from the jury. 1t is per-
haps all right to say that the attorneys
Tor the plaintiff were su prised. but sew
erHl attorneys since remarking on the
matter all uphold the court in the law

does not necessarily mean criticism and
the News does not wish TO be so under
-tood. IL il certain that many outside
OF the bar were surprised at the
result OF the case. From the very
nature Of the case the court is to be- com
mended for acting accordingly to his

To have strained point aud allowed il

ter with court for the whole proceed
ings To go To the supreme court and the
judgment OF the trial Judge Ia then
passed upon. Certainly surprise that is
criticism should be withheld until the
final court passes upon the point.

Whitewash is not 30 effective in get

trees as is soft soap, Boil one gallon Of

to apply It in the spring, soon after the

kill the bark lice as we'll as the borers.
When currants and gooseberries have
been injured by the borsr, as soon as the
leaves start the defective canes are easily
discovered and should be cut out as far

summer Shade lOr Hogs.


It is question whether hogs suffer
more on many farms from lack OF pro-
lection from the cold Of winter than from
lack Of shade in summer. The more
nearly they become fitted for market,
the greater the loss from lack Of shade
aud from flies and the exposure to the
GUNNER sun. On the subject Of "Sum-
mer Shade for Hogs" WGllGce's Farmer
says: at seems to us that many farmers
have, in the past, overlooked this point.
The hog does not sweat through the
pores of the skin as do other animals
and hence suffers intensely when ex-
posed to the direct rays Of the sun. 1t
is to prevent this exposure, and not be-
cause ne loves filth, that the hog seeks
the mudholes as soon as the sun begins
to get hot, and lies there ifpOssible until
the cooler portion Of the day. The best
protection against the summer sun is
a good grove, and the thicker the shade
the better the hogs like it. A hog
pasture without shade lacks one Of the
essential elements. 1t is better to have
less grass and moro shade and water
but with plenty OF good grass,
plenty OF good shade, and plenty Of
water, the hog is in paradise, and will
give account for everything that he con-
sumes with interest on the capital in
vested every day Of his life. Where
groves are not to be rad, some prOtec-
tion must be given if the hog is to be
grown at a profit. We have been talk
ing ON this hog question for years, and
we no doubt will continue to talk for
years to come, until every house and
every school house is protected from the
drifting SHOWS and cold north winds,
until every feed lot is protected likewise,
and until every pasture, whether for cat
Gle or hogs, has the best protection pos
sible against the fierce sums Of our
climate, which is really torrid climate
for three months in the year. In our
writings on this subject we have never
sufficiently emphasized the necessity for
shade in the hog pasture"

THE SMASHING OF TRUNKS.
A Theory as to Why the American Pub
lie "Has It In for the Railroads.

Tic ''EaS IL In IOr the f6dllTOduSs
A gentleman, prominently identified
with transportation interests" has freed
his bosom of it's perilouS stuff by out
pouring it into the columns of a Phila-
delphia newspaper. What makes the
countless thousands mourn in the cof-
fers of the gentleman p. /. W. t. 1. is
mans inhumanity to railroads, which
he treats as a somber phenomenon i'm
penefrable to the light of explanation.
He shows, with a fair degree Of lucidity,
that at least 1t is not truly attributable
to any one Of the causes commonly as
signed to the duty Of explaining 4.
think I can assist this person to an ex-
PLANTATION that Is simple. natural and
adequate. 1t Is matter of personal
baggage. The railway managers Of this
country will not employ men enough to
handle their passengers trunks and
boxes with decent attention to the spir-
1t of the decalogue. Every trunkmRde
with a view to resistance under concus-
sion-fortified with bands and patches
of metal and strips Of woods silent
witness to the rascal economy that de-
stroys in property what it saves in
wages.
II the American public were not
sheeply meek, the maddening spectacle
of man removing heavy trunks from
a baggage car by gravity would never
have acquired it's present hold upon the
favor OF railway men as public enter
tainment. 1t will hardly do to deal un-
gently with the person engaged in CIV
ing the show; he is not half as strong as
he ought to be, but he is commonly too
strong to be profitably kicked. Besides,
he Is not at fault; there is nothing In It
for him. He would as lief be good as
to be the red-handed pirate that his nu-
merical weakness compels him to be.
The outraged passengers proper re-
course Is to shoot the president Of the
company.
He who has duly considered the su-
perior intolerableness Of small wrong
to great one is denied the happiness
of thinking the public execration of
railways is in resentment of their giant
frauds upd1 the states and the nation.
For their bribery and corruption, their
unspeakable steals of property and priv
ileges, their dishonorable manipula-
tions of the stock market, their defiance
of the laws-for these and a hundred
other characteristic iniquities, he cares
as little as he knows; but when he has
stood, as who has not? and seen trunks
cascaded from a car and lost in q spray
of their own splinters, he has taken the
first irrevocable degree in what the gen.
tleman prominently identified with
transportation interests" Is pleased to
consider mysterious conspiracy of an
tagonism to the light. There is nothing
mysterious about it; the man has suf-
fered an outrage, which, by brooding
upon 1t, he soon magnifies to dimensions
of a slight, and henceforth his best ef-
forts are given to promotion and pros
perity of his revenge.-Ambrose Bierce
in the New York Journal.
