 Suppose a newspaper man, every time he hears of man criticiSing him or his paper in public, should retaliate by holding up to the public gaze the faults and shortcomings of said fault finder, what would be the result? The editor may not know it all, but he does not live in community long without knowing deuce of sight more than he publishes.
 On every farm wood ashes should be carefully stored under shelter. When leached the mechanical effect upon the soil is all the virtue left in them. Ashes should never be com posted, or mixed with any nitrogen ous fertilizer, but should be applied and only on the surface. Rains will do the rest. There is no better fertilizer for orchards than wood ashes. Farm and Ranch.
 There never was newspaper pub lished in any locality that gave all the local news. It is often the case that some persons come and go that the re- porter does not see or even know of. It may be that the same family is missed several times and they get i'm pressions that the paper does not care to nention them. 1t is a mistake. The best home paper has no i'll fell ings, no enmity, no spite at anyone; so do not be afraid to tell the report CT when you have friends visiting you, or that you have returned from a trip or are contemplating visit. If you think the paper shows partiality try to see if you can give it change.
