There is not a single music house ii the whole world that can get either thi Checkering , Steinway or Knabe Pianc to sell that does not advertise and re present it as their "Best Piano , " asl more for it and sell it for more monej than any other make they sell. There is not an unpnrchased musiciat of any renown in the whole world wh < will choose for his own nse any othei make in preference to the Checkering Steinway or Knabe. Long years ago the piano most heard of was the Ohickering , our grand mothers and our mothers used it and pronounced it the "BEST IN THE WORLD. " For 70 years the Ohicker- ings have been improving and perfect ing their pianos with the result that to day they occupy the most proud position of all. The most wonderful regard that the whole musical world has for the Ohickeriug piano is the best proof of its excellence , beautiful in quality of tone , delightful in touch it surpasses in all the qualities desired in a pianoforte.

Wilkinson held down the second bag in commoudablo shape while Kennedy lid good work in the right field pull ing in a high liner with ouo hand as a [ oature. Johnson was very much at lioino on third and did his usual good work. But for his mit being in the ivay ono of the fielders might have been credited with a wild throw that ivas endeavoring to sail by about four Ceet above the little curve-legged base man's head. Ho was also in the way of i line drive that was seeking n hole in ; ho infield. Ono of the amusing features 3f the day was a bunt by Wilkins to Irst. The ball journeyed down just in side the line and the old man started ivith it and beat it there by a safe mar- ; in. It was a close race and intensely nteresting.

State Veterinarian Thomas of Lincoln is warning stockgrowers of the dangei that exists in wild grasses. "Owing tc the nature of the season , " he says "wild grass is heavily ergotized this year , Some fields will be found so seriously affected that the hay will be useless un less the growth can be removed. Such grass produces three forms of desease , the most comon being a dry , gangren ous form , the circulation being impeded and resulting in the loss of toes or a portion of the tail or other members. In this form there is a distinct demat- cation between the dead and live tissues. Abortion is liable to follow from the poisoning. A third form not often no ticed is nervousness , causing death. Two kinds of ergot never before noticed in this section have been discovered this year. At Scribner one man lost twenty head of cattle , which some thought had blackleg. In my opinion , they were suffering from sores caused by mud. Nearly every pasture this year has a mud puddle in it. The cattle stand in it , the mud dries and closes the pores , causing irritation , and when the mud cracks there come sores , which are very annoying. " National G. A. R. Encampment.
