 According to old sayings it is high time to plant corn when the walnut buds first burst into leaves.

The cowboy is once more making his morning and night journey to and from the pasture lot. A half century ago the COW boy picked up his drove in the morning from all parts of the village and drove to the favorite pastures on aoyt's Hill, Two brooks, Great Hill, Milking Yard, Turkey Plain, Betts' Swamp, Plumtrees and Crows Nest. Blind Harry Seeley had large drove of cows for those days which were pastured on Grassy Ridge. MT Seeley kept from 12 to 15 COWS and sold milk. Each COW wore bell of different tone which enabled him to distinguish each COW and the number as they came into the yard. MT Seeley did most of his own milking and picked out his cows by the bell. He was man with cheerful disposition and often sang while milking. Is that your ship yonder? is. Where are you bound? To Lockwood's to buy shoes for the crew before sailing.

GOOD FOR THE sEI.ECrMEN.

The seleotmen have done a thing in re- gard to the roads which should bring forth an expression of thanks from those who travel the Main road running north and south through the town. This road, like many others, has been infested by certain rocks and stones which have been bumped over for a generation or two. At each working of the road lit- tie dirt was put on which might cover it week or two and then it was ready for the pumping process. This road has thoroughly gone over and all of these have been removed either by blasting or digging. This makes the roads without any other working in better condition than for year or more.

The Editors Familiar Chat.

The New York milk market seems to be in demoralized condition. In con- versation with one of the largest milk producers in Litchfeld county on rail- road train the other day, he stated that in his opinion if conditions did not i'm prove many farmers would retire from the business. At present he 4id not be- lieve the business was self-sustaining for the farmer. The price for the last month has not brought the farmers above 70 cents per can, and even less. The cause of the demoralized condition of the mar ket our informant lays to the New York wholesalers. He declared they were continually cutting under the so-called exchange price, which of course breaks the market. The great quantities of milk now being brought in from Wes- tern New York by refrigerator cars is also another factor in the situation.

 Owners of dogs will be interested in the fact that the legal status of the dog has been defined by the highest court o1 the land. A New Orleans man brought suit against A local railway for killing his New FOundland dog. Justice Brown laid down the law in regard to dogs ir general in the following terms: "The very fact that they are without the pro tection of the criminal laws shows that the property in dogs is imperfect oI qualified by nature and they stand as il were between animals ferae naturae 1T which, until subdued, there is no prop erty, and domestic animals, but rather in the category of animals kept for pleas ure. Unlike domestic animals, they art useful neither as beasts of burden, fol draught nor for food"

According to the st. Louis Globe

will probably have two of the hand
soonest horses ever seen in Washing
ton. The late Gen. Joseph T. Tor
renee, of Chicago, possessed as fine
stable of horses as was owned in the
Windy City. It was the Generals in
tention before mis- death that two mag
nificent brown horses, the best matched
pair in his stables, should be present
ed TO Mr. Mckinley to ride behind 70
the Capitol on Inauguration day, in the
event of his election. The General left
no written will to this effect, but it is
said that his daughter, Mrs. Magoun,
who has come into possession of the
estate, will probably carry out her
fathers wish and present the horses
to the President-elect, and that they
will take their place in the White
House stable on the 4th of March.

The officer said that it was estab-

with Butler in his several crimes ship
ped and got away on the Swanhilda.
Everyone of them were identified by
descriptions obtained at the office
where they signed Australia had
been secured from end to end before
this without clue.
In this statement of his meeting
with the Swanhilda, Captain M'Breath
of the steamer Taupo relates that con-
siderable excitement prevailed among
the sailors OF the coal vessel as his
boat approached her side Several
were crowded together on the deck
and. after the second mate had gone
below with Captain Fraser, demanded,
in quite harsh tones, what the boat
wanted. The officer of the Warrimoo
yentured the opinion that these men
were none other than Butler and his
aeeomplices, huddled together, be-
lieving the steamer had been sent after
them, to make last stand.
This startling information, which
came direct from Australian detec-
tives to the Warrimoo's officer, makes
the case doubly interesting; and any
