Nvmphomania of Cow.

p. M. Nebo. Tex.-We presume your cow
has what is known as nymphomania, for
which there are several causes. some of
them removable. High feeding or concen-
trated foods. such as cotton meal. cowpeas
etc. may cause it. But it is usually due to
some disease of the Ovaries other at
tachments OF the womb. IL is usually best
to get rid of such animals by fattening
them for the butcher.

To the Farmers

The time is fast approaching when the hay crop
of 1897 will be put upon the market for sale. Re
ports from a section of the country show the
argest crop of lay raised in many years especial
ly through the middle and western States; in view
OF these facts it is essentially necessary in order
to secure the highest prices for product in the
various markets of the country, that the prepara
Jion of the crop shall equal that of any other por
ton of the country. This result can only be
obtained by using Dederick's upright or an OK
press. 1t seems at present as though the larger
part of our surplus hay must find market on the
cattle steamers, where space is an absolute neces
sity, and hay put up in the old style lever presses
will not be used for this purpose when a better
pressed article can be obtained, and even then
must be sold at discount. 1t is of vital import

farmers cooperate with the dealers and pressers

should be very satisfactory:
| DEAR SIR: l take great pleasure in in
| forming you that you are to have the best
train arrangement this winter for Belfast
| that you have ever had. For instance, trains
| will leave Belfast at 10 a. M, 1 05 p. m. and
| 3 45 p. M, the first morning train, of course,
| connecting at Burnham for Portland and
Boston as usual, while the train at l O5 p.
M, you will note, not only connects at Burn
ham with the "Flying Yankee" for Portland
and Boston, but will also connect at Burn
ham with the "Provincial Express" which
this season we are going to let run all win
| ter. and will thus enable passengers from
Belfast to reach Bangor at 3 % D. M, making
connections for Houlton, Caribou, St. John,
St Stephen, Ellsworth Bar Harbor, etc.
! Trains will arrive in Belfast at 1905 a. M
49, 40 p. IN. and $40 p. M, the first morning
train bringing, of course, passengers from
Bangor and Waterville, while the second
train, as you will discover, does not leave
Durham until arrival of the morning train
from Portland leaving at 90 a. M, and the
evening train, of course, brings Bangor,
Portland and Boston passengers as usual.
The new connections, then, must be very
| gratifying to your people.
Yours very truly,
