Assaulted and Choked TO Death.

Assaulted, thea choked to death, and
her body cast over steep declivity on
Chaplin Hill, within view of her home
and the city of Wheeling, w. Va, was
the fate Of Hulda Schubart, aged ~
years, daughter OF dairymaD, Charles
Schubart. The girl left home Monday
morning at O'Clock to walk down the
winding, isolated road from her fathers S
dairy to Wheeling, half-mile distant.
That was the last seen of her IN life.
Yesterday afternoon her body was found
by her lover lying, rain-soaked and be-
draggled, six feet below the road Her
neck was disco.Ored and marks of power
full fingers on tile white flesh were easily
found. Later Investigation led the po-
lice to believe that before death Miss
Schubart had been maltreated. Although
confident the girl was murdered, the
police and her parents are unable 10
suggest q clue to the identity of the
criminal, She was to have been married
in a short time, and her tragic fate has an
gered the whole city. 1t is evident she
was murdered Monday, perhaps by
gang OF yagrants known TO iniest the
hills whenever the weather permits.

Business Life.

/ Let us hop out OF the peck measure
and take at least a half-bushel survey
of things, optimistically observes the
New York Mail. The morale OF our
business life is not to be measured by
the rascals who occasionally come to the
surface in it any more than the potency
of the Christian religion is to be judged
by the backsliders from it. Nine hun
dred and ninety-nine men out OF every
1000 in our New York financial dis
trict'' are strictly honest. Can anybody
there go out and lay his hand on a
knave this afternoon? The passage and
payment of myriads of checks every
hour, the safe delivery Of millions OF
letters, the very eagerness with which
men rush TO meet their obligations, all
attest TO the honesty of the business
world, the high moral standards that
rule there. Our moral standards are
high, not low, to-day. The huge ele-
plant that nourishes a parasite is too
big and too honest to notice it or to
know it, even.

TOO LITTLE GOOD BUTTER
A Plea for Improvement Of the Grade
Of the Farm-Made
Product.

The consumption of butter is IN
creased by the increase Of the general
quality. There is a general complaint
that there is too little good butter on
the market and too much poor butter.
If this applies to creamery butter it
applies much more to farm-made but
ter. The American public is always
ready to pay for a product of good
quality, but it turns away from a prod
uct of poor quality. This is SO proba-
bly, more in this country than in any
other. No matter how poor the Ameri-
can may be he wants the best. Some
times if he cannot pay for it he run
in debt for it rather than take a poorer
quality, for which he could pay. This
is SO not only in the case Of butter,
but in the case of almost everything
else. The result is that a poorly made
product of any kind sells slowly even
at a low price. The problem in this
country is to manufacture good prod
ucts, for those only can be marketed
without loss.
When a mar sends poor butter to
market to be sold on commission he is
taking big chances with it, says the
Farmers Review. AS it is not a quick
SALE" as the commission men say, it
will be held in store longer than the
other butter. Much of this time it is
exposed to currents of air warmer than
the required temperature of the refrig-
orators, for it must be often examined
by possible buyers. The triers are run
into it often and when the surface is
covered with several signs of this kind
the would-be buyers become suspicious
of it, for they recognize the fact that
other men have passed adverse opin-
ions OF it. 1t gets rancid in a short
time and some of it has finally to be
disposed of as grease.

COOL THE FRUIT.
Successful Shipment Of Fruit De-
mands That It Should Be Freed
from Latent Heat.

Fruit should not be picked on q
warm day and put Immediately into
cold storage or into cars for Shipment.
1t should be put into some place where
it will have a chance to cool off and
permit the latent heat to work out,
says the Farmers Review. Putting
fruit into close cars where no refriger-
alton is provided is a fruitful source
of trouble in the shipping OF fruit. The
heat in the fruit causes rapid spelling,
especially with fruit that is OF short
keeping quality, like some OF the ap-
pies that ripen in the summer. II the
nights are cool, fruit al be cooled on
by simply leaving it over night ex-
posed to the air, but not to the dew.
In other cases cellars are found deep
enough to have a temperature OF under
so degrees. These can be used in such
cases. In some parts OF the territory
over which this paper ~circulates stor-
age pits have been dug into the side
hills and these may be used as storage
places.

limbs of the Law.

: About 1000 men are to be added to the
legal profession in the state OF New
York this year. On the face OF things,
this looks like an inflammatory stimu-
lus to legislation. The building OF bat
tleships is usually accepted as an indi-
cation that there is going to be a war,
though the political reasons for a cor
fiict may not be in sight. The whole-
sale commissioning of young lawyers
may be looked upon a. an augury OF
more lawsuits. Carrying deadly weap-
ons and keeping in close business touch
with plenty of lawyers are two ways Oh
getting into fights. However,. there is
n natural law of compensation and ad-
iustment at work all the time. Old law
yers retire or die as the young lawyers
come to the fore. And then a great many
who are admitted to practice never be-
come more than nominal lawyers. some
find it such uphill work to build a prac-
tice that they abandon their ambition
and so into something easier. Still, Inc
lawyers take up the profession at their
own risk. Keep out of court If you can.

THE ORCHARD.

Cultivate the orchard every ten days,
this month; thus conserving the mois-
ture in the soil. Constant cultivation
during a dry time is almost as good as
irrigation.
Again we say: Be sure to muzzle the
horses-yes, and the whif1etrees, too
when narrowing the orchard. Barked
trees are as disagreeable on the farm
as barking dogs.
The time to cut out blighted pear
wood is to-day, to-morrow-any time
it's seen. Watch for signs of this dis
ease, and, when found, be sure to cut
well below the affected part.
There is a temptation to make sauce
OF the early apples before they are
really ft. Do not be in a hurry about
it. Better wait q few days longer, than
to run the risk Of an attack of bowel
trouble.

GUST THE DEMON.
A Tussle with Coffee.

There is something fairly demoniacal
in the way coffee sometimes wreaks its
iendish malice on those who use it.
A lady writing from Calf. says:-
"My husband and ], both lovers of
coffee, suffered for some time from a
very annoying form of nervousness, ac-
companied by most frightful head
aches. In my own case there was
eventually developed some scrt Of al
fectDn Of the nerves leading from the
spine to the head.
II was unable TO hold my head up
straight, the tension of the nerves drew
it to one side, causing me the most in
tense pain. We got no relief from
medicine, and were puzzled as to what
caused the trouble, till a friend sug-
gested that possibly the coffee we
drank had something to do with it,
and advised that we quit it and try
Postum Coffee.
I'VE followed his advice. and from
the day that we began to use Postum
we both began to improve, and in
q very short time both Of us were en-
tirely relieved. The nerves became
steady once more, the headache ceased,
the muscles in the back of my neck re-
Taxed, my head Strengthened up, and
the dreadful pain that had SO punished
me while ! used the old kind of coffee
vanished.
we have never resumed the use OF
the old coffee, but relish our Postum

last drops are being drawn, and then
let drive at the pail, and really seem
to enjoy the fun of doing it. Kicking
cause of kicking as rough milking.
This should never be allowed.
A heifer's teats are very tender and
she should always be MIXED very
gently by the full hand, says the Farm
and Home. The teat should never be
jerked, or pulled as in stripping" es-
pecially when the bag is full. Extreme
gentleness in every way the first few
weeks will usually make a gentle COW.
Often the animal is timid and shrinks
from being handled, and also resents
interference with what she considers
the sole rights Of her calf. In all
cases of kicking | have one unfailing
remedy, whether the COW is young, or
an old habitual kicker.
Make a Slated stall just high enough
so she can't jump out and wide enough
to hold her comfortably, with nothing
to spare, narrower at the end where a
feed box should be placed as high
from the ground as is comfortable for
her to eat ont of. This Slated stall
should be long enough to have cleats
through which a bar or two should be
run behind the COW to keep her from
backing out, and also places TO run a
bar in front of her hind legs about the
thick joint, or as high up as possible,
so as not to interfere with milking. A
hole about IS or 20 inches wide is left
open for this purpose from the ground
up to the cows flank, which allows easy
and safe access to the udder, while the
cleat, post, etc, prevent the COW from
kicking outwardly at the mixer, thus
insuring safety to milk and milker.
This stall CT break does not hurt the
COW at all, but it teaches her to stand
still, and also that she can't kick If
she wanted to. Usually a few weeks
use of this break makes a gentle COW,
especially if fed while she is being
MIXED. Old kickers may always have
to be MIXED in it, although / have
broken several from kicking. They are
usually good cows and can be bought
cheap.
