Yes, August Flower still has the

August Flower to clean out the system

Decs1fpUsed Body of "a Man hiscSyered In
/ ny swamp near FerrislNrg.\
.The mutilated body of "A man with
legs ana arms attached was founthpn the
banks of Lewis creek, on the farm of
lI ut. Gov. Allen in Feri.burg. last
Friday by a mau who wa muskrat'
hunting The indications were that the
man met with an accidental death by
drowning months ago, ana the elements
assisted decomposition in rending the
body, Tor the head aud one hand were
gone. One shoe was left, and this had a
large brass buckle. In one pocket Of the
clothing was 20 cents; In another a
rosary and beads, knife and a Montpel-
Ter paper, dated Sept >, 1900. The
seectmen and health officers of Ferris
burg failed to find any marks which
would lead to the suppositon that a
murder had been committed. The lungs
and neck had been torn by an animal,
and the remnant of flesh on the neck also
had the appearance of having sloughed
away from the head through decomposi-
ton. The body, it is thought, was that
of Dennis Deshaw, who was last
seen sept. u last
Joseph Lamay, section boss, and two
men who were at work between Ferris
burg and Vergennes that afternoon, re.
membered that a small man of light COM
piexion with gray and sandy beard
passed up the track. He was very feeble
and could scarcely walk. He was near
the railroad station when the storm was
at its height, and was forced by the wind
and rain II to the ditch beside the track
where he might have drowned had not
Herbert Edgett, the station agent, gone
to his rescue.
After the storm was over the stranger
started toward the village, going as far
as the home of Mr.. Lamay, where he
talked with servant girl, who said that
she remembered the occurrence. Size
described him very minutely. her de-
scription of form and dress tallying with
that of the dead man. even to his large
shoes, having one buckle, and which she
noticed were much too large for his feet.
From Lamay's house the stranger re-
turned to the depot, and thence to the
home of Wilcott Deshaw, a quarter of a
mile west of the railroad track. To Mrs.
Desnaw ne Is SAID to have given his
name as Deshaw, and asked for food and
shelter.
Leaving the house, he went over the
hills toward the swamp, where the body
was found Friday. Since that day no
one Whereabouts bad seen him. The De-
shaws have moved away, and the rumor
respecting his call at their house cannot
be verified. In all probability the body
found and the man seen are identical.
Denis Deshaw was a soldier in the civil
war. and on his return found his wife
insane. She is now In an asylum in Og.

Beans are a good feed because they

Eggs sell better when sent to market

The early pullets are the profitable

Ten hens with one male make about
the proper proportion.
Ten weeks from she'll to market is
the time allotted a chick.
Keep eabbages hanging in the house

Ten focks, each consisting Of ten
hens, are enough for an acre.

THE ITALIAN BEE.
why II Is More Profitable Than the
Common stock and Superior
to the Hybrids.

The italian is the most profitable
bee. Even the hybrids are much su-
perior to the common bee. Sometimes
there are colonies of hybrids that are
better than the pure stock. But, MS
a writer correctly said: "Even If it
were true that hybrids produce as
much honey as pure Italians, each
beekeeper would want at least one
queen of absolute and known purity;
for although first cross might do
very we'll. unless he had this one pure
queen to furnish queen cells he would
soon have bees Of all possible grades,
from the faintest trace of Italian
blood all the way up. The objection
to this course is that these blacks.
with about one band TO show trace of
Italian blood, are the wickedest bees
to sting that can well be imagined,
being very much more vindictive than
either race in its purity; they also
have a very disagreeable way of tum-
bling off the combs in a perfectly
demoralized state whenever the hive
is opened, except in the height of the
honey season, and of making gem
eral uproar when they are compelled
by smoke, to be decent. Our pure
Italian stocks can be opened at any
time and their queens removed,
scarcely disturbing the cluster, and
as a general thing without the use OF
any smoke at all. Oy one who is fully
conversant with the habits of bees.
A good many hybrids will not repel
the moth, as do the hals-bloods and
the pure Italians. For these reasons
and several others, rear all queens
from one Of known purity. If we do
this we may haveamost II not quite
the full benefit Of the Italians as
honey gatherers, even though there
are black bees all about us"
