Of the companies referred 70. because the
prices for their securities have declined. These
circumstances are cumulative evidence that
crodulity and enthusiasm are important fac
tore In . bull market, and that encouragement
and skeptioism. adroitly inculcated, are equally
Influential In a bear campaign. Although Con.
solidated Gas was not particularly active to-day,
a net decline Of 1874 points was not without
effect upon the largely professional speculation.
An effort was made to explain the decline BY
the circulation Of statements that the platform
to be adopted by the local Democratic organiEa.
tion tonight would contain q strong declara-
tion against corporations. and particularly
against gas companies. Such n declaration, how,
ever. could not possibly affect Chicago Gas
which was moro extensively dealt In than any
other stock. and Of the active stocks sustained
the greatest net loss. Chicago is apparently In
tent upon reRaining Its old-time prestige as q
p%urVeyor Of unreliable bearish nows upon
one Of its principal local industries. In
view of the indifferent success attending
its efforts to secure funds at tho East to de-
velop Its various local enterprises It would seem
reasonable 10 hope that tho Windy City would
eventually realize the suicidal character OF its
constant assaults upon capital and enterprise.
Az for several days past, the news was logically
In favor Of an improving market for securities.
Foreign exchange was weak and lower and
heavy imports OF specie are plainly In sight.
The wheat market was stronger, owing to

export. The money markets continue easy both

THURSDAY, Sept. 80.
The transactions in stocks were materially
smaller than yesterday and prices were gen.
orally lower. Early In tho day the market
showed q good deal of hrmness, but In the
afternoon. particularly nj the close. the advo-
Gates Of lower prices appeared to be In control.
As noted In this column for several days past
the market Ia unquestlonably a two'sided one.

portant interests who took advantage OF the en-.
thusiaStio and indiscriminate buying of
stocks have acquiesced In tho reaction.
which will obviously contribute to a sub
stantial basis for q renewed advance in
prices. The interests referred to. having ap-
parently sold stocks at the advance. arc in u po-
sition to profit by the decline which their sales
helped to bring about. At tho present Lowell Of

ton by weak and frightened holders. and by .
com bination Of boar operators that succeeds In
constantly alarming the speculative community
with its specially prepared views regarding tho
money market, politics. possible international
complications. and tho yellow fovor situation at
the south. The manipulation In the direction
OF lower prices was most successful to-day In
the various gas securities, Manhattan Railway.
and Louisville and Nashville.
Tho inflated character Of the market for local
gas securities was pointed out in The U
nearly two weeks ago. and tho indications arc
that today's further decline In the price of Con.

Cotton was quiet but nrm to-day. The Liverpool
news was better than had been expected. but the
principal sustaining factor was the decreased interior

and professional, but included some Liverpool orders

Around th" Far,,.

Hogs can not we'll he kept on
slop and milk alone, but these go a
long way in furnishing them food.
A pig is almost a thing that can't
be gotten along without when there
is COW on the place.
1t costs lie each, in the East, to
produce an egg; out West, where
grain is cheaper, the cost will hard
Iy exceed lalf a cent. For the
amount of money invested there is
a good profit on eggs at as low a
price as 10c per dozen.
A large saving in the cost of rails
ing hog may be accomplished by
boiling all its food. A half-bushel
of corn boiled will go as far again
and fatten better than as much corn
fed dry. If the table refuse can be
added to the kettle it will be still
better.
For several reasons it is more de-
sirable to have colts come in the
Fall than in the Spring. 1t is no
little item that they are not so wor-
ried by flies and heat. They seem
TO stand the change better when
weaned at the springing Of the
grass than if taken from their
mothers in the Autumn.
We have an idea that we make
butter when we churn, but this is
an error. The butter is being made
from the time the milk is drawn

An 1stbsWss representative was stroiilng
about town the other day, looking up items
of news. he dropped into Fezer's drug store.
This, that and other medicines were talked
of and their curative qualities analysed,
80 far as lay in their power. The cura-
tive powers of DIR. Williams Pink Pills were
talked of, when Mr.. Falkner. a clerk In the
store. mentioned that Mrs. Joseph Moore was
q firm believer in their efficacy Pursuing
his quest. the Tribune man paid Mrs Moore
visit the next day.
Among the many good people residing in
Greeley, Colorado, Squire Moore and his
amiable wife are the best known and the
most respected The Squire is carrying his
seyenty-six years as sturdily as many men
who have not yet rounded their sixtieth mile
post ard his wife. Ann. Is lifting compan-

husband few weeks his wltes senior and
for over fifty years they have travelled the
pathway of life together. In l848 they emil
grated to this country and settled in Derby.
Conn, where they resided for a number OF
wears. While there Mr.. Moore, who was
highly respected by his neighbors, was elect
ed a member OF the State Legislature in 1867
During his residence in the United States
he has been q constant reader of the New
York Tribune, and was an ardent admirer
of its founder and great editor, Horace
Greeley, and firm believer in that notable
writer's opinions. Through those mediums
he was influenced to come to Greeley in the
early spring of 1871, and here he has resided
ever since During his residence in this
beautiful section of northern Colorado, he
has held many responsible public positions,
notably that of Justice of the Peace, an Office
which he occupied uninterruptedly for eight
years; and four years ago was reelected to
another term, his name being placed in
nomination at the convention without his
knowledge.
The newsgatherer was received cordially
and in response to his inquiries, Mrs. Moore
stated that her health commenced failing
several years ago but like great many wom-
en-, she scarcely knew the meaning of the
name sickness in relation to herself She
refused medical attendance or treatment of
any kind, barring that which she drew upon
from the family pharmacopoia or dispensary.

time it is churned is due to the con-
ditions in which it has been kept
while it was yet milk or cream,
We are apt to take pains while
churning, but pains at this time
will be of no avail to make up for
past errors.
Sows do not give large amounts
of milk, but what they do give is
very rich. By the time the pigs
are two weeks old they will need
additional rations, and these should
be provided in a trough where the
young pigs can feed themselves.
Give only what can be eaten quick
ly and entirely.
Milk freely and rapidly with as
little movement or jerking as pos
sible. Even avoid loud talking
while milking, Anything which
attracts the attention from the nper-
alton affects the secretion, and this
secretion goes on during the draw
ing of the milk. ..sr
1t is better economy to own a
brood mare worth $500 than it is TO
keep five brood mares representing
the same amount Of investment, as
the produce Of the one mare, when
bred to the right horse, will sell for
more than the product of the FIVE
common mares, and it takes Just
one-hfth the care and feed to keep
it. -
