twenty or uioro posts of this kind , uot
ono of which scomod at nil decayed ,
except thnt in a few ciuosn vary lltllo
of what is called the sap-wood was
slightly nffcctcd. In thia tree , as is
well known , the sap , or white wood ,
Is quitp limited , so that if a'.l hnd de
cayed -would not have ailccted the
vnluo of the posts.
An proof of whnt I have here stntod
I herewith Bubmlt for your inspection
a Sictlon of ono of thoto fonco-poats

I found piled wi'.hin ten feet of the

The proprietor whoso name I regret

sented that I should saw off n section
of the top board of the pile , not bo-
cauao it was the widest for It was
not but that it nnflioiontly illustrated

t twenty-five inchea in width nnd was
t taken from a log sixteen foot long and
over four feet in dinmotor , cut for the

Thia , too , I offer for your inspection ,

of Dayton , O. , who experimented with

I may ndd with not a parliolo of per

"this is a most valuable wood , not
nlono for railroad ties and posts to bo

In conclusion I will repeat the can-

No green food is now desirable. All
pou are aiming for ia to put additional
leoh upon these fowls , and to do this
in the shortest pezelblo time. So long
as they cat well they will increase in
eight , up to n certain period , treated
.a thia manner , und two or thron
weeks will bring them to their boet.
If they become cloyed , and lose their
nppotlto at an early date , after thuo
inmg cooped up , kill them off nt onco.
They have reached the most profitable
day of their existence , and will no
longer improve in the desired direc
tion. In this eimplo way wo have fat
tened many previously woll-kopt fowls
u three wceks'n time satisfaotoilly ,
md wo have known many hundreds
hua fattened that have dressed hand i
somely in sonio days less time ; the
mode thus briefly recommended being
economical , as well as expeditions ,
oleanly , nnd very convenient. A
greater amount of flesh can bo pro
duced iu proportion to the grain fed ,
when confinement is resorted to , and ,
f the prisoners are well attended , and
ho term of incarceration does not last
too long , there is not much danger of

How to Bust an Bar of Corn.
Farmer.
In last nook's Farmer E. W. Brown
tolls us how to hunk au uar of corn ,
requesting if any ono had a bettor
* ny that would make it known. Aa I
think I have a bettor way , I will give
miuo :
Catch the oar with the loft hand ,
thumb towards the butt ) and the little -
tlo finger about opposite the tip
of the corn ( uot the husk ) In-
oort the husking peg so as to tuko not
loan than one-half ot the husks , bring
down with a quick motion , giving
them B sharp pull at the bull f close
the left hand around the remainder of
the hnakn , nt the Bainu time grucping
the oar with the tight hand , thumb
toward the tip uud the little fitiger
near the butt , and break off by proas-
ing the tip of the car from you with
the thumb , and nt thosamo ttmo bring
the butt towards you by a ohort , quiok
jerk with the fingers , otill holding to
the huakn with the loft hand.
It tukey fowcr motions by thia
method than the other , aud every ino <
tion takes time. A person unaccns
tomod to thia way , may at first find it
difficult to bring the ear out clear of
huuke , but by carefully following the
above directions and a little practice ,
there will bo no trouble thnt way.
Lat Mr. Brown try this way long
enough to got the "hang" of it and
report. S. S. BCZA.IITH.

the Bchool , nud didn't find the teacher
there. Ho had been gene for eight
months. I found a church boll in the
middle of the house , in the middle of
the floor of the school , that cost $200 ,
nd there was no church. I saw
mother trlbo of Indians who were 180
strong. Not ono of these Indians over
lived lusldo of a house , unless ho was
aapturod and taken inside of n fort ,
rhoy live in the brush , what they call
'hognns , ' on the ground. They sloop
in akina , live on melons nnd eorn ,
tnd raise ahocp , and they are a rich
iribo of Indians. At that Indian res-
r vat ion there wan a school housa
anilt , I suppose with government
money , out of howri atone as largo as
tny of the largo firat-class school
louses In the city of Washington. In
hut school house they had recitation
rooms , the finest school furniture , all
dnda of books and largo maps hung
m the wall. They had n dormitory
for the sleeping of Indiana that would
nccomodato tvro hundred , and yet
there WUB not a scholar at that aohool ,
but the bookn were piled up all around
n the camera of that
ichool houco. I oaw that. I
rhlted BOino ton tribes of Indians
have opokon of two. 1 Trill speak of
jno more. The last tribe , then , I
shall refer to without mentioning the
mine. I wont to the Indian aoncy ; ,
ind there I found a school house ,
fho school house was tWclvo miles
xway from the Indian agency , so that
ho children cither had to go and
board there with the agent , or had to
travel twelve miles to the school.
Fhoy refused to do either , and yet
this government has paid teachers and
the books show that they have taught
7D scholar ! ) .
The ohlof of that tribe is a very in-
tolligcnt man , though ho oould not
ipoak English , and I had to use an interpreter -
terproter , and throngh him ho told
no that they never had five soholam
it any ono day in that school , and they
jot a few old women and their chil
dren to go In there at different times
ind stay for about an hour und look
ivor the pictures , and then they
shargod them all as scholars. I bolluvo
io stated the truth. "
THE BAD AND WORTHLESS
&ru never imitated or counterfeited.
Fhla is especially true of a family
uodlclno ; , and it is positive proof that
the remedy imitated ia of the highest
raluo. As soon as it had been tested
ind proved by the whole world that
lop Hitters was the purest , best and
nest valuable family medicine on
arth , many imitations sprung up und
jegau to steal the notices in which
.ho press and people of the country
lad expressed the morita of II. 13. ,
md in every way trying to induce snf.
tiring invalids to use their stuff in-
itcad , expecting to make money on
ho credit and good name of II. B ,
Many others utartod nostrums put up
n similar style to II. Ii. , with van-
msly devised namoa inwhich the
vord "IIop" or "Hops" were used In
away to induce people to believe they
voro the snmo us Hop Blttora. All
inch pretended remedies or cures , no
natter whut their style or name Is.
ind oapiclally these with the word
'Hop" or "Hops" lit their name or in
my way connected with them or their
tame , are imitations or counterfeit * ,
3awaro of them. Touch uono of
bom. Use nothing but goniiluo Hop
3ittora , with a bunch or cluotor of
roen Hops on the white label , Trust
lothlng else. Drugiflsts and dealers
ro warned against dealing In imlta-
