Farm Notes.


Milking should always be done in a
clean, airy place, free from all bad
Odors.
TOO heavy loads make balky horses
With all stock discomfort always
costs in extra feed.
Flowing for wheat should begin Just
as soon as possible after the harvest
work is finished up.
Dairy stock can not be improved If
a promiscuous trying of all breeds is
permitted to 20 on
Cream should have a uniform con.
sistency as well as being of uniform
ripeness before chlrning.
The COW, to do her best and continue
it for the longest period, must have a,
least one-ffth of her food of some kind
of nitrogen.

make up Il pound of loss than it does
to add five pounds of gain under favor.

In feeding fattening hogs the food
should always be given in clean

Witch Grass.

This is a terrible weed to eradicate
either from the field or the garden. 1t
spreads by means of underground
stems called rOot-Stocks These run
along below the reach of the moving
machine, or of grazing animals, and
often too deep to be disturbed by sur
face cultivation. They produce buds
at their numerous scaly nodes. and
these buds develop into new plants in
exactly the same manner as branches
are produced above ground. The root.
stocks of couch grass will sometimes
grow to Il length of ten to fifteen feet
in one season. furnishing this weed
with a means. of rapid distribution and
propagation, a character making II
most pernicious in cultivated land. The
only way entirely to get rid Of it is by
forking the ground over carefully, and
picking it out piece by piece. Even
the smallest bit left in the ground will
start into growth.-American Cultiva

Exhibiting Crops.

Any farmer who will religiously fol-
low his county fairs from year to year
will observe the opportunities there to
make a reputation If he can grow one
particular crop better than another.
AS every one knows, one soil worker
is an expert potato grower, another
raises prize swine another understands
corn better than other crops, and SO
on.
Let each one take specimen of
that which he can grow best to the
county fair and exhibit, advises the
Indianapolis News. Possibly he may
not win a prize, but he will have Il
chance to see what others are doing
and thus ascertain his own shortcom
ings. Again, his exhibit may attract
the attention of some one who wants
Just the product he produces and Il
profitable business is worked up.
The educational advantages of the
county fair ought not to be overlooked

Money in Growing Reef,

LATE PAPAL CENSURf
Has Called Out An Indignant Protest
 From France.

Paris, March 26.-The protest which the French government submitted to the vatican against the recent utter ances of the pope against France was not in the form of an official note. but was a verbal protest by M. Nisard, ambassador of France at the vatican. to the papal secretary of state. Merry Del Val.
 Whether anything will follow the submission of the governments protest is not yet decided, but 1t Is expected that the protest will suffice to give formal expression to the governments disapproval of the pope's language. ln- formation reaching government quart CTS show that the members of the Sacred college are much divided over the pope's utteranoes, some regarding them as most unwise and uncalled for.
 It also appears that the cardinals were taken by surprise, as the pom tiff had not given any intimation of his intention to criticise France. Only q few days before the pope received a

delegation of French pilgrims. when it was thought he might make some al- fusion to France. Not being made then. the cardinals were satisfied that the pope would not discuss France at any time.
 The incident is regarded as show ng the pope's tendency to carry out his personal ideas. The governments pro- tests are substantially as follows: "The discourse by the holy father on the oc- casion of the feast of St. Joseph con stitutes a public criticism of the policy of France. This criticism Is chiefly in- acceptable in being contrary to tha stipulations which regulate the rela- tions between the holy see and France and for this reason the French gov ernment deems it to be its duty to formally protest to the cardinal sec- retary of state against the allegations which it admits neither in substance nor in forn.''

sphers. An instance of this took place shortly after he became governor of the Kwan-Tung district. Under his predecessor a feeling of unpleasantness had arisen between soldiers and blue jackets which seemed likely to lead to serious results if not quickly neutral ized. Alexief summoned the officers of each service. spoke plainly to them on the subject and gave them per emptory instructions how to deal with the growing discord. He also talked with the men ard made it plain to them that Draconian measures would be enforced against peace breakers, and within a month after his interfer- ence peace and concord reigned be- tween the branches of the service. But all who have ever served under Alex jeff speak of him as strict disciplin- arian and a man noted for his service measures.

A NEW ENGLISH HORROR
George Crossman, Polygamist and
 Wife Murderer.

London, March 26.-Polygamy and its influence over George Crossman, who had eight or more wives, and the de- velopments following from the su'c de of Crossmnn, are absorbing public at tention.
 On the night of March g, Crossman, who was living in the respectable su- burb of Kensalyze, killed himself to avoid arrest by the police whose sus- nicions had been aroused regarding the contents of a. trunk which Cross man was sending away from his hou-e. On opening the trunk the body of a woman was found encased in cement. An investigation proved that she was murdered about six months ago. and that she was one of Crossman's wives. Five of his wives were traced and found alive. One wife is dead and two are missing.
 The body found cemented is in de- composed condition, even to the skull, which had been split with an axe. The police believe it possible that the investigation may prove that Crossnan adopted a similar method in rid 1ing himself of other wives, of which it Is suspected he may have. had several who have not yet been traced. Though only thirty years old, Crossman's caree" rivals that of famous criminals. He was an engineer, a composer, a wig maker and a bookmaker.

FRENCH HOUSEKEEPING.

French cook turns any and every thing to advantage. and many culin- ary chef d'oeuvre is the result of care and skill rather than rare and costly ingredients. With just a pinch of sav- ory herbs and a clear fire, cook will turn shreds of cold meat into delic- iously appetizing morsels, gastronomic discrimination on the part of her pa irons keeping up the standard of ex- cellence. If I were asked to point put the leading characteristic of the French mind, I should unhesitatingly say that it is the critical faculty, and to this faculty we owe not only un . rivaled French cuisine, but pleasures of the table generally. Here is one instance in point. One quite ripe mel on, to the initiated, tastes very much like another. But a French country gentleman knows better. Whenever a melon of superlative flavor is served, he orders the seeds to be set aside for planting. Thus the superlative kind is propagated. The critical faculty is ever alert in France, warning with

 A dispatch from Ouray tonight says that the men were stopped at Ridgway and advised not to attempt to go to Telluride and that they would return to Ouray. Governor Peabody said to- night that the men were allowed tn proceed to Telluride and were now in their homes. Dispatches from Tellu- ride make no mention of their arrival. but stated that another group of six union men, who endelvored to reach Telluride by the way of Ridgeway were turned back.

Alexieff is a most strict discipiinari- an, who insists on his men discharging every title of their duties. No fault of theirs ever escapes him, no derel;c- ton of duty is left unpunished. Hence his men hold him in awe. But he is indulgent withal in other respects, and ever ready to allow for those little weaknesses which cannot be eradicat- ed, yet do not constitute an impedi- ment 10 efficiency. Thus he entered into the spirit of his men, introduced interesting games. offered prizes to the winners, and thus kept many of them from indulging too freely in vodka. At the same time he was popular with his brother commanders. and thus wielded desirable and effective infiU- ence over all who came within his

SLAUGHTER OF NEGROES
Three More Victims of Arkansas
 Mobs.

Dewitt, Ark, March 26.-Three more negroes have been put to death near St. Charles, making eleven negroes that have been killed as the result of the rioting which began last Monday. Kel- lis Johnson, the last of the band Of ne- @.ooes that caused the trouble, was shot to death today. Perry Carter was found dead in the woods near where the 5sve negrooes were slain Thursday night by citiens. All is reported quiet at St. Charles tonight. It is the belief that the most objectionable negroes have been slain and no further trouble is looked for.
