OMATTA DAILY BEE : WEDNESDAY. APBIL i2 1883 , THE SUPERNATURAL. The Old Era of Suporotition Still Finding Adhe rents. Witchcraft Exerttn ? Its Influence t Over a Fanner's Family-Strong Testimonials. Special BUpatch to the Clnclnnntl Enquirer. GERMANTOWJT , Ohio , April 8. The parties ivlioao affidavits are given below are highly reipoctod and well-to-do fanners , living three miles northwest of our city. They gnvp their statement freely and earnestly and truthfully , ns I believe they are sincere in thinking that they are under the influence of a witch. They rely on God and their friend Kutz to help them out of their troubles. When your correspondent drove into the yard the old gentleman greeted him in the most cordial manner , and when asked if ho was out of his trouble yet , lie said no , that ho was very tame to-day. Ho said I should wait until his sons came , and they gave me d full statement , which is as follows : , The State of Ohio , Montgomery County , 83. Daniel JJ. Staver , of Gorman township and county of Montgomery , being duly sworn , nays that he could not work at all for about four n eeks before the holidays , or about the 1st of December , 1881. I was not sick , but was not able oven to help feed the stock on the farm , and sometimes I could not sloop of nights. I saw a woman in front of my bed ono night. I know the wo man ; she was a single woman ; uho -was a neighbor woman ; she was stand- .ing in front of m/ bed when I wakened up , She disappeared sud denly and mysteriously. Thcro was 210 light in the room at the timo. She looked as though thnro was a light on her. She looked _ natural. I knew her. Her name is Misa - . AB near as I can tell , it was between mid night and daylight. 1 wont to sleep after I saw her. Her appearance nmdo no change in my condition as to ability to work. When I nttemptnd to work I would tremble and shako all over. I had no rent anywhere , and when I attempted to go away from the farm I could not go. The trou- bio still afreets mo a.littlo yet , once in awhile. Sometimes the horses ( which alwaysi did work before ) ; ould not work. They would stand still , I was at Dayton ono day during the time of my worst troubles , and 1 wished my self homo before I was half way thuru. The trouble came on mo on the road , and I had no pleasure that day. There ia n man in our neighborhood working on our troubles to remove them. His name is Isaac Kutz. Miss - told mo she had already signed mo over to the devil. And she told mo that she could do any thing the devil could do , and that nho was signed over to the devil. She said that oho would not lot mo loose until I had spent moro money than I would make this winter. God and Kutz told mo that I should kill a black dog , a black cat and a black rooster and take them off of the farm , and that would loose mo from the devil. I did kill a black dog , cat and rooster and took them off of the { , ( farm. I can go off of the farm now , but have no pleasure any whore ; but ns to the devil the spell is broken , _ But I am still in the clutches of Miss I ; - . There was a strange blue i ( Maltese ) cat here , and whoever - over of the family that walked behind the cat would got sick , if they attempted to chose her. Sometimes this cat was very largo , at other times eho was very small. Wo had to throw out all of our apples. There was no rest in the house until wn would throw them out. Everything that was raised on the farm was saved. Hut whatever was bought must bo du- atroyod , I saved the furniture in the house by just throwing my hat on the ground and stamping. Miss - compelled me to go with a girl ( she woa a good girl ) that I had no thought of going with. Miss - said I was , as good a fellow as was around ; that 1 was too good for her ( Miss - ) , and too honest. But the spell is broken as to the girl I was compelled to go with , and 1 don't have to go with her. She ( Miss - ) said she would make me marry the girl within ono year. , At the time Kutz was trying to got me loose from the devil ; ho could not manage it to got mo louse , for Miss - was helping the devil. I went one morning botora daylight to Farm- orsrillo for Itev. Amos Poorman to pray to God for help , Mr , Poorman prayed for mo in my presence , and in the presence of his wife ho prayed for our entire family for mo and for the girl Miss - drove mo to go with , and for the girl'a father. This woa on a snowy mnrning. My father was with mo at Mr. Poorman's , Before I wont to Mr. Poonnan'a ( the harness wai in the house , ) as I was approach ing the stable with the harness to put on the horiOj father readied for the cpllnr , 1 said the horse hid the col lar on and the halter off. It was the collar that wo always used on that hone. This was on Tuesday , and the collar had been taken off on Sunday at noon , or two days beforo. I um troubled with a cough Miss - brought on me , She said she would remove the cough this year. Kutz did Wn duty for ray cough ; ho relieved it some. Bomothing told mo to take eomo cough drops that wcro in thti houto , and I did so , and sot the bottle tle back in its place. When the same mysterious thing said to mo , "Throw the bottle out and say , 'Hero , devil , toke this bottle , drops , cough and allI did BO. Again the voice said to mo , "Go break the bottle ; " bul "when I wont out the bottle was gone and could not be found. Many othot things happened that I would no ! like to tulli Miss was up , ami told Mr , Poorman "that eho was i witplu" I have not awoken to Mr , Poorman about the matter. Mr , Poorman did not toll mo this , but the name mysterious voice told mo. Mr. Poorman told mo that there wcro no such thing as witches , ami that ho did not believe that oithci JVIUs - or Kutz know anything .about our troubles , lie said ho would believe it if Miss - would tell him herielf. Mies uaid that hoi mother learned her witchcraft. The h' ' " ; Mr , Poprtnauls a good man , 13. BTAVJSB. k - U Sworn to nnd subscribed before mo this 7th day of April , 1882. Lr.OMDAsS.

CmcKMonE , Notary Public , Montgomery Co. , 0. Teat the Seed Corn. There is tiujto a feeling of distrust among thinking fanners in regard to iho condition of the seed corn raised ant year. The matter ia still more aggravated by the fact that none was loft over from the crop of 1880. Last year the same difficulty was experi enced in the county where the writer resides , and the shortage in the crop from p'oor seed was immense. In pur immediate vicinity the fiwt planting failed entirely. Ono of our neighbors made a good thing for himself , and did a very fine thing for the corn- unity around by ottering his crib of corn , loft over troin the crop of 1879 , for seed. It vraa eagerly bought up to the very last bushel , nnd it crow very finely. Probably the people in many other localities might relate similar experiences. But the diffi culty now is that wo Imvo no ouch cribs of sound , perfect corn in any part of the county , and reliance must bo entirely placed upon corn which wna regularly saved for seed. Great caru should , therefore , bo used in testing it before going to the labor nnd expense of planting for of all the vexations of farui lifo there are few more worrying and unsatisfac tory than that of replanting a corn field. Some experts are of the firm belief that they can determine the question of vitality in seed corn by carefully otamynng ' the germ or "chit , " but this test 'is ' not by any moans an infallible one , though some of our own neighbors rely upon it. But the safest and best plan is to take numerous samples from various parts of the quantity intended for ac&l , and Bproufthoui. This can be do'iio very easily , planting them in small boxes , and keeping them in n warm place and this is the common mode in use among our neighbors. Ordinarily , if the conditions uro all favorable , nnd the coed "strong" and good , the sprouts will begin to shoot in two or three days. If they do not appear in six or eovon days , the corn should bo rejected as worthiest ) . If a part of it sprouts , nnd the other kernels appear unduly swollen and pulPy , it should bo rejected. A near neighbor of ours has a novel plan of testing his seed corn. lie lirst puts on his spectacles , and selects it with the greatest circumspection , breaking the cars , discarding the ker nels from the small ends and care fully examining the "chit. " After the selection is duly made , ho tests a kernel or two from fifty or a hundred ears in this way : Ho takes up a sud eighteen inches square , in BOIIIO warm , sunny spot , and evenly spreads his sample of corn over the space below. The sod is then carefully replaced. If the conditions of moisture and tem perature are all right , the com sprouts readily in u couple of days. An ex amination can bo made easily nt any moment by lifting the sod. when the condition of each individual kernel can be seen nt n glance. When good seed is used the appearance upon removing the sou , nfter the corn begins to sprout is a very beautiful one. Not only nro the sprouts rnpldly shooting , but in numerable little rootlets which shine and glisten like silver will have boon Bout out in all directions after the food which the growing plant so quick ly requires This manner of testing seed corn not only enables ono to set tle the question of its germinating power very speedily and satisfactory , but it nmkos n moat beautiful experi ment , which will delight any observ ing person , nnd especially those who tuko an inturost in botany. The failures of the putt year should not only inspire every farmer with a great degree of caution in regard to the quality of the corn ho plants , but should also lead hereafter to extra card in the selection and preservation of seed. Many take no thought about this most important work at the uro- jier season , but still rely upon taking it with very little selection from the crib. Even seasons after which the corn is unusi-ully well matured this is but a poor , unthrifty nnd shiftless method , but seasons in which the corn failed to ripen * perfectly it is wono than taking olmncna blindly. Although so much has boon written on this aubjeot there is still n great amount of missionary work to bo done in inspiring the mass of firm era to reiort to the most intelligent meth ods of securing nnd preserving seed com. The exporJonco of last year thousands of griovoas and annoying failures raises the question in our mind whether it would not bo well for every farmer to make it a rule to cam * over ft year's supply of seed corn. The uoodluck of our thrifty neighbor , who sold a whole cribful of the crop of 1880 in the spring of 1881 , is certainly - tainly suggestive , The great trouble about this business is that sued corn must be selected and saved at n very busy time , nnd it seems to bo a task that can -well enough be put off from day to day , and no it is jieglccted by the average farmer. Front , H "To sum it up , six long years of bod-ridden sickness , costing $200 per year , total 81,200-nil of this expense was stopped by three bottles of Hop Hitters , taken by my wife. She has done her own housework for a-ycar since , without the loss of a day , nnd I want everybody to know it , for their benefit. N. E. Farmer. SODA WORKS. Their Establishment ut Laramie - mio is Now n Settled Pact. Where the Works Will bo Located -A Few Facts About Soda. Laratnte Boomerang. Last Thursday afternoon paper * wore filed in the nflico of the county cltrk , transferring from Colonel S. W. Downey to Sidney Dillon the entire property known as the soda lakes , west of the city. Mr. Dillon , as agent for the Union Pacific , no con trols the whole of that vast deposit of soda , nnd ns the following will show , will make use ot lui newly acquired property in n manner whereby his company and our city will bo mutu ally bonefittcd : During Mr. Downey's late visit to Omaha ho mot Mr. Kitnball , arid-had quite n Idngthy interview with him regarding ( he soda lakes and the es tablishment of reduction works here. Mr. Kitnball assured him that ) t would bo done , and nt once , It is the in tention of the company to erect their buildings , furnaces , put in machin ery , etc. , this summer , and their agent is now in Europe purchasing the ne cessary appliances to reduce the soda and prepare it for commerce. Mr. Kimball said that the works would bo located on section 5 , on the east side of the river near whore the Laramie & North Park branch crosses it. A branch road will also bo run from the works to the limestone quarries at the base of the mountains cast of the city. We have no means of knowing how many men will bo employed in carry ing on the work of quarrying nnd re ducing the soda and preparing it for the market , but the force will proba bly bo pretty largo. From n Jotter written Mr. Downey by Mr. David J. Playfair. of Glasgow , Scotland , who has had years of expe rience in ttio business , wo arc able to Uy before our readers some interesting - ing facts relative to soda and its uses. Tno soda , as found in these lakes , ia called sulphate of soda. Mr. Plnyfair says it mii < ht either be dried and sent to market in its natural state , there being un increasing demand for it among the Pittsburg glass makers , or might first bo converted into carbonate of soda or caustic soda. Most of the above kinds of soda used in thiscoun- try is at present imported. The import duty on sulphate of soda is about twenty per cent , of its value ; on car bonate of soda about 85 per ton , and upon caustic soda of any strength about $35 per ton. In making either caustio or carbonate of soda , the first throe stops are the same for. both. First , drying the sulphate of soda as it is taken from the lakes. Second , the black ash process , or converting the sulphate of soda into carbonate of soda. Third , the lixiviation of the black ash. Then if carbonate of soda , or soda nsh is to bo made , the solution from the black ash is evap r.uod and the resulting salts calcined m u carbonating - nating furnace. If , however , caustic soda is wanted , the solution from the bhick-aah is di luted , boiled with burnt line , allowed to settle , run into pans and concert- tratodj Bottled again , and then finish ed in iron pots the finishing process consisting in driving oil'all the water , fusing the cuuntic soda at a bright rod'heat , oiizing and sulphides that may bo present by means of ni trate of soda , then allowing the caus tie soda to settle and cool somewhat , and lastly packing it , while still liquid , in iron drums. The uses to which alkali , in the form of caustio or carbonate of soda is put , are many. The more important ones are to make soap , paper , washing soda , bi-carbonate of soda and glasi ; to purify mineral oils , to make such compounds of soda as sulphite , hypo sulphite , borax , acetate , staunato , phosphate of soda ; also bromide , iodide , etc. , of sodium. It is used as a ilux in treating some of the rare motuls , and generally to neutralize acids and precipitate motaltio oxides ntid carbonates. In closing his letter Mr. Playfnir says ho thinks a &oap factory , in con nection with the soda works , would puy that with plenty of tallow from our boovcs , and caustio sodu at hand , Liramio should be ublo to compote successfully with Chicago for the local and western trade , Glass works , nlno , could bo worked to advantage. In this connection , wo pivo the fol lowing , from the Denver Republican : "Mr. N. K. Boswell , of Wyoming , vrea nt exposition headquarters , yesterday , arranging for a nnda dis play even larger than the celebrated lump he exhibited at the Centennial. Mr , Boawoll has a deposit spread over some 400 acres , varying from live to twenty-one foot in thickness of merchantable sulphate of soda. Ho had a block of about three tons weight at the Centennial , but promises to send us u pill of four tons woieht for exhibition. Ho informs as that the people of Wyoming hive hoard of the exposition and are not wasting any time. As for himself he will dis play his soda and magnesia , nnd BOO that his neighbors show their riches. " Buoklin'a Arnica Salve , The BEST SALVE In the world for Cut * , Urul e .
