Testing the Cider.
Teaterday afternoon, a farmer hav
ing a barrel of cider on tap in his wag
on was doing a fine retail business
near the market at five cents per glass,
when a man with a very thin voice
and very old clothes, softly advanced
and said :
'Has the state inspector of pomolog
ical juices inspected that cider yet?'
'I guee8 not,' responded the far
mer, greatly embarrassed In a mo
ment. 'I thought not,' continued the thin
voiced man. 'Weil, sir, you can draw
me a full glass.'
The farmer drew one, scanning the
man with considerable anxiety, and
when the 'inspector' had received it,
he held it up between his eye and the
sun, and Baid :
'The precipitation appears most too
rapid, while these floating partioles
denote unusual depression. Perhaps
a second glass will be dearer.'
He swallowed the contents of the
first at exactly four gulps, aud taking a
second glass, hecritioally examined it
and said :
'Ah ! tho precipitation is olearing
away. This cider seems to have been
made from apples.'
'It was, sir, and they were nice ap
ples, too, replied the farmer.
'Let's see how a third glass will
look. I am not quite satisfied on the
point of compression.'
He drained the seoond and.reooived
the third, and as he sipped it, he en
quired :
'You used a hand oider press,' did
n't you ?'
'Yes, sir.'
Ah! I thought so. Worked it with
a lever, didn't you?'
Yes, sir.'
'Did the mill stand in a draught of
air while you were working it?'
I I don't know, sir.
Well, I think it did. Be a little
more careful after this. The Inspec
tor of pomologlcal juices grades this
barrel 'A No. 2,' but if you take a lit
tle more pains you can increase the
grade every time in the future. All
right, Bir; go on with your selling.
The man had been gone ten min
utes before anyone mustered courage
to remark he was a fraud.
'I know he's all right,' persisted the
farmer. 'The minit I see him draw
his coat tail around to wipe out the
corner of his mouth I knew he was a
big gun, and I was just shivering in
my boots for fear he'd ask me why I
didn't punch the seeds out of tho ap
ple before grinding. Detroit Free
Press.
How They Fight the "Fire Fiend"
In Terniont.
Near the burning building stood a
barn which seemed likely to go. In
that barn was a calf, and Mr. Plug de
termined to rescue the animal or per
ish in the attempt. He iushed in
and seized the calf by the tail, and, as
it was fastened by thehalter, it would
probably have been strangled by
Plug in bis efforts to get it out if nomo
on hadn't out tho rupe. As It was
be dragged the creature out, using its
tail for a handle, and threw it over
the fence into the street; then jump
ing over after it he hauled it to the
opposite fence and was about to throw
It over, when Mr. Gallagher, who had
recovered bis breath and got possess
ion of an ax, interfered. "Stop," he
said, "you oan never throw that calf
over that fence ! Let me cut the fence
down!' But Mr. Plug would not
heed him, shied the calf over, follow
ed it, grabbed it and ran It a quarter
of a mile to a ditch where he dumped
it, and where It was found drowned
the next day. The barn burned, and
the house near it was in great danger.
Mr. Plug, having got back from res
cuing the calf, was satisfied that the
house would go, and determined to
Bave the furniture. Turning
to the crowd, he asked : "Are we
men ?" "Yes," replied Limerick and
several other boys. "Then let ua save
this house!' He rushed in, upset a
large flower-stand, breaking the pots
and plants on it, threw a bootjack
through the window, and then, get
ting hold of the edge of the parlor
carpet, tore quite a hole in it. Then
he started co ascend to the upper sto
ry. The stair3 were narrow, winding
and pitch-dark. He had got about
half way up when some one threw a
feather bed over the balusters; it
came down on his head and he rolled
with it to the foot of the stairs, where
Mr. Gallagher, who had just broken
the front door from its hingeB, grab
bed bed and man and threw them out
into the front yard. -Then James as
cended to the roof and found that the
I fire' was under control and the men
coming down. He started to descend
the ladder, and about half way down
met Limerick, who had akettleof hot
water, which he insisted that Mr.
Gallagher should take, though he
was informed that it was not needed.
To oblige him Mr. Gallagher took the
kettle, but the handle was so hot that
he immediately dropped it. There
were several persons beneath the lad
der, and, though they stood from un
der with promptitude and profane ob
servations, scarcely any one failed to
get a few drops of it. One man
thought it was done on purpose, and
had to be held while the facts were
explained to him. Scarcely had this
row been settled when Mr. Plug came
up and accused James of trying to
smother him in the feather bed.
James, of course, denied it. At one
time a fight seemed imminent, but
they were finally taken home by
friends, and the next day the man
who owned the house and calf sued
them for damages. St. Albans ( Vt )

Maxims for the Farmer.
1. Never get in debt when you can
not see your way out again. When
you owe, pay as fast as you can and
promptly. Never allow yourself to be
dunned for a debt a second time with
out paying It. Credit for promptness
is of great advantage in any kind of
business and all through life.
2. Never enlarge your farm when
half of what you own is not half cul
tivated. 3. If you own more laud than you
can till well, are in debt, or need
funds to make necessary improve
ments, sell part of your farm and use
the money to pay debts and make
your Improvements.
4. Never borrow money to build a
showy house wbeu a less pretentious
one would answer better, and never
lend money when you have poorly
tilled land to improve.
5. Lny out a system of improve
ments for your farms and buildings,
and, as your means improve, carry
these plans out.
6. Do not enter upon any specula
tion with other people's money, or
your own, unless you see clearly that
you will make profits, and even then
do not do it to tho neglect of your
farming.
7. Do not keep poor stock when you
oan keep good stock at the same ex
pense and with muoh more profit.
8. Do not try to grow crops for
which your farm is not well adapted.
9. If you have a good location do
not sell out, expecting to bettor it, be
cause you have been offered a good
price.
10. Do not change farms often, for
by so doing you can carry out no defi
nite systotn of improvement.
11. Unless your orop3 are good, sow
less and farm better.
12. Be present with your employes
as muoh as possible, otherwise little
will be done, and that little poorly.
No business requires the master's
overseeing more than farming.
13. Keep ahead of your work or
your work will keep ahead of you.

ties for the heads of owls and hawks,

THE INTER OCEAX.

Daily, $10.00.
The Inter Ocean, as a political jour
nal, stands confessedly at the head of
the Republican press of the West, and
ns a reliable newspaper has a reputa
tion second to none. While it has
never wavered in the support of par
ty principles, has never failed to do
its fulhduty in critical times, and has
never hesitated to strike hard blows
in defense of the Republican cause, it
has never ceased to be a good news
paper, independent of all political and
party considerations.
With the recorl of seven years' con
scientious work and efficient service
behind it as a certificate of character.
TheJhfer Ocean enters upon the work
of a new year j enters upon the work
of a 3'ear the moat Important, per
haps, in its history, and the merit mo
mentous In the history of the Repub
lican party. Lines are already form
ing for the great battle of 1880, and
the country has never felt the need of
staunch and able supporters of princi
ple for the sake of principle as it will
in the coming year. It has been the
good fortune of tho Inter Ocean to
lead in the formation of public opin
ion, and to have a tremendous follow
ing. It has maintained this position
as leader because of its unquestioned
loyalty to the fundamental principles
of the party, its boldness in defending
them, and itefairnessi n dis cussing
great political questions. As the In
ter Ocean has sounded tho key-note of
the contests in past years, Republi
cans will look to it as a faithful guide
and leader in the coming year. And
they will not be disappointed.- The
paper will stand, as it always has
stood, the organ of no faction or
olique, battling in the front rank for
the principles that have made the
country what it is.
The Inter Oceanoxpeot9 to receive
from enemies and opponents hard
blows, and to return theuiwith inter
est. From Republicans and friends it
expects only such consideration and
fairness as any political joarnal may
claim at the hands of those interested
in the success of the the party and in
the triumph of party principles. The
issues are sharply deflued. On the
one side is the solid South aided by
the Democratic party ; on the other
the Republican party. Naturally at
such a time Republicans will turn to
a paper able, aggressive, and of un
questioned loyalty. All that we ask
is that tbey judge the Inter Ocean by
its own utterances, aud not by what
Democratic organs and enviius rivals
say of it.
Outside of party considerations Re
publicans will choose the bet news
paper. And in this particular the 7h
ter Ocean has no superiors. Jt is in
every sense of the word a national
newspaper, presenting home and for
eign news in attractive shape, and ac
companying it with iulelligtnt com
ment. It will be as enterprising as uny of
its contemporaries, more accurae and
more discriminating. For twoyears
its cable dispatches have been fuller
and of higher character than those of
any other Western journal ; itsWash
ington aud foreign correspoidence
more readable, covering more topics
of special and fgeneral Interet, and
Its home correspondence more varied
and more complete. All thesedepart
ments will be continued, with such
improvements added as exferience
may suggest and inoreased fjoililies
for collecting news allow.
Independent of politico and news,
men want a symmetrical, interesting,
and wholesome journal for thefamily
and the home. They will ficd such
a paper in the Inter Ocean, which de
votes more attention than any other
political newspaper to departments
prepared and conducted with the
wants of home and family in view.
Thi9 applies to Agricultural, Domes
tic, Educational, Scientific, and Social
matters.
The Cukiosity Shop, coreriug an
swers to all sorts of political, scientific
and general questions, wLl receive
more attention, even, than in past
years, and will be a complete encyclo
pedia of information not accessible
outside the great reference libraries of
large cities. In this department the
Inter Oceun has been without a rival
and, realizing the importance of the
department, the publishershave made
arrangements not onlj' to maintain its
high character, but to make it answer
more completely the demands of sub
scribers. TnE Home Department has with
in the past year assumed a new char
acter and a new importance. It is the
outgrowth of tho Inter Ocean polioy
of fostering home interests, and, wBile
ic is unique in its freshness and its
plan, it is unequaled in its interests
and in the amount of suggestive and
practical information on Home top
ics. The Agricuituraij Department
will be in oharge of one of the most
experienced agricultural editors of the
West, and will giveeacli week timely
hints, suggestions, and discussions of
practical interests.
The Veterinary Department
has become a standard authority
among horsemen, and is republished
from week to week in manj of the
Farm and Stock Journals of the coun
try. All questions of subscribers as
to diseases and treatment of stock are
answered withoutcharge by a distin
guished and experienced specialist.
This department will be maintained
at its present high standard.
The Woman's Kingdom, devoted
to woman's Interest aud work, will be
continued in the generous and conser
vative spirit that has made it so popu
lar. The Commercial Department
has had a reputation for reliability
and completeness all its own. It will
remain in charge of the same editor,
and will be made up with the wants
of the readers in view.
In Fiction the Inter Ocean will pre
sent a serial by a popular Western au
thor, covering ground in the West not
touched upon hitherto by writers of
fiction, and replete with incident and
adventure. ' Tn short stories, sketch
es, and general literary miscellany
the Inter Ocean will pander to no low
taste, but will give the best.
In these times of depression and
scarcity of mouey,pedple will turn
to the paper that is the cheapest. To
meet this demand the the price of
the Inter Ocean has been reduced to
$1.15 for The Weekly, $2 50 for The
Semi-Weekly, and $10 for The Daily.
In short the Inter Ocean will be a bet
ter paper than ever before, and will
be furnished for less money.
Sample copies sent free. All coin
muuication should be addressed
