nmwcr the indictments under bontls o
$23,00. The usual long row of poopti
with no visible means of employment
who arc alwas eager spectators at a tria
of this character , were early on tin
ground anxious to hear nil the rovoltin- :
and Indecent statements thai might bo re
cited. Their appetites in this dircctioi
were ruined by the action of the prosectit
ing attorney , Mr. Stearns , who moved th
older that all spectators except the ba
and the press be excluded. Judge Browi
showed his approval ot the motion by is
suing the order and th
preliminary hearing was can led throne1
m a very quiet manner. The wilnebsc
examined by the Mate were Miss Until
Carey , Mrs. Schal , Drs. Hover. Gieei
nnd Lowry. The testimony of the gil
Ilaltie Carey was by far the most imporl
ant in character , and was even moro cor
CIHC and damaging than thatglvon by ho
before the coroner's jury. She iiriitdc

of the case and safety of the operation
and named over several parties who ha

This witness bworo that in her prosenc

of snfleriup greatly , nnd the next morn
ing fainted in the dininir room , took t
her bed , nnd never arose again. Mrs
Belial's leslmionv was in regard to con
fcssions made to her by the girl whoi
dying , nnd of her knowledge as nurse ate
to xvhat ailed the girl. Both these womei
were cross-examined by the defense a
great length , the girl llaltio Care ;
being under a cross-liru for some thre
hours. Her testimony remained , how
ever , unshaken in a romarkabl
degree. Dr. Hoover testified as 1
the cause of the girl's death
corroborating Jthe autopsy held , and Dr
Lowry Instilled that the girl had come t
him for treatment , that lie suspected lie
purpose , that he treated her with not ! )
ing injurious or that could injure her , am
vrhon tlio girl returned ho told her hi
could do nothing for her. When it cam
to the hearing of the dofcn.se the defend
niits ! uttorno.vs placed Drs. Mitchell
Howry , Carter and Hoover on the stand
but their testimony was of little weight
nnd helped the state's cause fully a :
much as the accused Dr. Cooley him
self did not testify and the case was turnei
over to the justice , who returned u ver
diet as recorded above. County Atlorne

Upsetting a Prcachcr'u Gravity.
Chicago Inter-Ocean : Dr. Patterson
was pleaching a very earnest discourse
and WHS carrying his congregation with
him. when an English pug dog crossed
the line of his vision. The dog attracted
the attention of no one in the auditorium ,
and there is no reason why it should have
attracted the attention of the preacher ,
but the thought came to him that the dog
had its tail curled about as tight as cir
cumstances would permit. Then came
the question if the tail was curled once
more what would happen. Would it not
be possible to curl the tail so tight as to
lift the hinder parts of the dog and start
him walking ou Ida fore feet with his
tail in the air ? All the time ho had been
going ou with his sermon , but when this
odd conceit of giving the dog's ' tail an
extra curl oame over him he burst into a
horse laugh.
lho interruption came not only in the
middle of a proposition but in the middle
of a sentence. Ho broke off without
ceremony Into a laugh that startled him
self quite as much us the congregation.
Once started ho found it very dillicult to
stop , aud although he used his handker
chief and made a pretense of having n
paroxysm of coughing , still he laughed
till the tears came. Jiven when lie started
again on his Borinon he found great diffi'
eulty in getting away from the idea oi
the dog's tail , and several times his voice
trembled and ho had to shako himself as
one in a dream.

a Science.
Philadelphia , Hccord : There nrc two
classes of dairymen those who make a
specialty of selling mSIK , and these who
get the nulk , take nwny the cream and
send the butler to market. Though lho
majority of dairymen endeavor to com-
bmu both branches , yet but few of them
can be successful i < i Belling both milk
and butter. The profit from the milk
Hold depends upon the quantity yielded
bv the herd m proportion to the amount
of feed nllowcd and the capital invested
in the shape of labor nnd buildings. But
thu larger the .jicld ot each cow the
greater the investment , for the reason
that the productive animal requires no
more room , shelter and care than docs
ono yielding n smaller quantity. Iu the
production ol butter the cows will all'ord
a prolit in proportion not to the quantity
of milk given , but to the amount of
cruam contained in ihc milk.
Bcloro the dairyman can be successful
in cither branch he must draw thu line
between the breeds that c\.ecl in yield of
milk mid these that give milk rich in
cream. The lirst thing the j.eionlllic
dairyman will do Is to select the breed
for the purposes he may have In view.
The ntixt will bo to feed in biieh a manner
as to secure the largest yield of cither
milk or buller in proportion to the cost
of food , and lho cost of the food depends
upon its adaptability for conversion into
the ingredients entering into the com
position of milk.
{ science in dairying does not Stop nt
thu selection of lho proper breeds , or lho
mode of feeding , but also includes the
proccs-s , of management of the milk nnd
the preparation of the butter , for which
the proper facilities should be provided ,
while the judicious saving ot the manure ,
and its conversion into crops , must betaken
taken ns important factors of
the enterprise. It is an old
mavim that "the
dairyman gradu
ally becomes wealthy even when his re
ceipts and expenses are nearly balanced"
for the reason that his farm piodnccs
larger crops each succeeding year , this
manure being the prolit. As long as
dairymen refuse to rnsoiL to some system
of breeding , nnd continue to purchase
fresh cows to take the place of those be
coming dry , thov cannot estimatu on any
dclinitu results , us it is almost impossible
to go into the market and purchase a
dairy herd of cows that excel in both
milk and butter , though with the use of
well known breeds , such as the Holstoln ,
nn approach to such may bo made. The'
average dairyman should breed only lo
thoroughbred males , nnd thereby intelli
gently grade up his herd ns near lo the
purpose required as may bo possible.
Selecting Heifers.
American Agriculturist : liaising heif
ers .sounds well in theory , but brooding
cattle is a seperato art from dairying ,
and unless followed with great judgment
is a losing business , as not every heifer
raised becomes a lirst-cla&s milch cow.
The best plan is to buy heifers heavy
with their .lirst calves called "spring
ers ; " and in this there is much moro
room for judgment and skill in making
these selections than most men are will
ing to admit. The mistake usually made
is in being misled by a fancy for cerium
slmiies. colors and fashionable points , to
the neglect of others relating immedi
ately to the usefulness of the matured
cow. The first uoint to consider
is that the heifer is strong , with a deep
ilank , indicating constitutional vigor ;
then sec that her teats are large nndsct
wulo npart. Viewed from behind the
twist should bn open and wide , with ru-
dimcniary udder well displayed and teats
far apart. As secondary and fancy points ,
n slim neck and long head with small
horns are good features. Above all things
avoid these heifers that show very small
rudimentary teats , or these wiih largo
ones sot close togelhur. Such a hoifcr
never makes a first class cow. There arc
enough risks to run before securing n
good one , without starting out with those
who can never improve. Even the best
of pedigrees cannot make a good cow
out of a heifer with a deformed udder.
Those who have studied Guunon's method ,
while they do not rely on it to the exclu
sion of other points , find it a great aid ,
and feel that they cannot ignore the es-
culchcon.
Cans tor Seeds.
A farmer says Ihat duriti" : the winter
he gathers all the old cans ho can collect
and liys them up for spring use. He
puts t-ome good garden soil hi the cellar ,
and when the proper time comes places
a lot of the cans in the stove with a Hash
ing lire , which readily unsolders them.
He ties twiiio around the body of a can ,
then ( ills with a little super-phosphates
and good earth , and plants garden seeds
in them and lets them have a place in
the kitchen. When the time comes for
transplanting , he makci the hills iu the
garden , digs : i suitable hole in the hill ,
sots out a can , cuts the twine , lets the
can spring apart a little nnd slips it from
the hill without disturbing lho roots , and
places lho c.in above lho hill as a protco-
llon from rains , winds and frosls as long
ns may bo necessary. Ho says ho has
hwcet corn and cucumbers two or throe
weeks ahead of others. For curly wax
beans , this is an excellent method. He
has tried this phm for two years with
good success ,
. FoMl fop Farm Horses.
Large quantities of coarse , green food
given lo farm horses will generally
grcally increase their weight and lit
them tor the heavy work on the farm.
It is not so valuable for roadsters , ns it
interferes somewhat with their sprightliness -
ness , but wherever heavy work is re
quired , orrsistpnt feuding of this charac
ter develops size , weight and capability
of endurance.
In view of this fact ensilage becomes
of value as winter iced for this class of
horses. It supplies u largo bulk which ,
keeping this body of the horse well
lilled , insures every yutir greater power
of drught.
If farmers will study the science of
feeding they will see why condensed
feed is better for sliced , aud bulky feed
bolter for Mow work , and they can lit
their teams lor specific purposes by
regulating the character of their food.

The healthiest room * for skvping are
those in thu top of Ihc buUding. Iu most
farmers' homes it is considered u great
tulvantnijo to have one or two bedrooms
on the ground lloor , not only for con
venience , but because they are easily
wanned from the sitting-loom stove.
XVI in farmers'1 liomcs where collars are
well Jillod with fruit and vegetable * , , the
danger and unhcaltbfulncss from bleep-
ing near them is greater than it is In
titles. The upper rooms are generally
cooler than these on the ground , but It is
dry cold and free from the odors or ma
laria from decaying vcgetabblo in tlio
collar. If the upper rooms are warmed
by registers through iho floors they will
bo suflicicntly and moro healthfully
heated than by stoves or furnaces. The
most economical way to heat a largo
house is with a furnace in the cellar , and
the use of hot air or fctcam pipes. \ \ 1th
o furnace in the cellar , however , the
farther from I he lattec that all can sleep
the belter it will be for their health.
"Tnkc'n Seat. "
A coed wagon seat is thus maelo : Get n
board of proper length and width , nail a
triangular block of wood , with the wielo
edge up , In the inieldle ot this board , aud
bore two hole about two inches from the
ciul in the ) center ot the board. Then
take another boarel of thn same sir.o ,
ho ro holes in the fir.st boarel , nail this
board to the triangular piece of wood ,
iilaco bolts in the holes , thi hole in the
lower iieurd beinglhirgo enough to allow
the bolt to freely move up and down.
The tints of the bolt * should , of course ,
bo under tlio scat. This will give your
spriiigloss wagon n springy seat lor two ,
and jolts and jars will no more dislocate

Denouncing the Sccel Suimllc.
Now York Tribune ! The Now Jor.iey
horticulturists Thursday presented the
truth in a mild and guarded way when
they charaeleriwel the congressional se'iul
swindle as a perversion of the original
intent of the act establishing the elenart-
mont of agriculture. The commissioner
himself ought to make a manly protest
against this annual waste of more than
$ 100,000 under the cau/y pretense of aid
ing agriculture , fe > r it brings diH-rudil
aud ridicule upon the entire wolk of his
department.
The farmers nowadays nro taking
counsel together aud making their influ
ence felt as it should be. JNo thoughtful
man will oppose their demands that gov
ernments , state anil national , shall under
take investigations which are in their na
ture top costly for private enterprise anil
too delicate to bo conducted by others
than men trained and skilled in scientific
mclhoiLs. But it is time that they de
manded that the money spent ostcnstbl.v
for their benefit shall not be squandered
in violation of every principle of science ,
business and common sense. It is to be
hoped that other conventions of farmer !
will unite with the Horticultural societj
of New Jersey in protesting against a.nj
f uither appropriation for the seed bureai
until the distribution is restricted to the
legitimate purpose which was conlcm
plateil when the practice began.
Konsonnble Hints Hnil
There is no use of a chick or hen hav
ing the gapes for twenty-four hours. A
few drops of camphor and water dowi
the throat is a sure cure.
Turkeys and guineas should not bo al
lowed to roost in the ; tree-tops , or the re
suit will bo croup , which is contagious
all the fowls of ttie barnyard being sub
ject to it.
It is not too soon lo make the frames
for lho hot-beds and get everytlmif
ready. Save the manure for that pur
pose , which shoulel be fresh and free fron
coarse litter.
An excellent mode of utilizing am
spare time of winter Is to cleau up ant
burn all dried grass and weeds. Trim
ining the trees and vines may be doiu
any time between now anil spring.
The fall colts may be given all the
ground oats they can eat. As the mare :
will have but little labor to perform at
this season there will be no necessity foi
weaning the colts before spring.
Stock , us a rule , arc naturally clear
and will not lie down to rest in a manure
pile if moro cleanly siud comfortable
quarters arc provided , nndvu all knov ,
that cleanliness is conducive to health.
Don't forget or neglect to put your
farm roads in good repair before it is loci
late. You will save moro than the whole
cost of the job in a week when yon necel
a good track in the busy springtime.
A musty cellar is death to milk 01
cream , but it booms impossible to pound
it into the heads of some people. More
butter is ruined by bad cellars and caves
than from any other cause on the
farm.
Beef may be smoked or corned at this
season with but little difficulty and the
farmer who raises a steer for his own use
annually will bo provided with a bettei
quality of meat than if he depend upon
the pork barrel.
Modern farming is more and more be
coming u race for lho "survival of the
fittest. " The poor farmer must go. The
good farmer only will ho able to hold out
against competition. It is a rule that is
applicable to all branches of industry.
The nearer the free/ing point the cellar
can bo maintained without actually en
dangering the stored fruit the better for
apples. Heat and light do more damage
than cold. Alternate freezing .and thaw
ing will soon destroy fruit or vegetables ,
Breeding animals should not be kept tc
fat , and these who are intended foi
breading purposes-should not be feel with
thosei buing fatted for market. Jf the
females be toofuttho young will be weak
and puny ,
Feed out the new corn slowly at first ,
using old corn in preference , so as to al
low the new crop to thoroughly ripen ,
Now corn sometimes does injury to stock
when fed out too freely , and the propeir
mode is to begin its u&e gradually. If the
old corn is out give oatu with the new
corn , with plenty of chopped hay or
straw.
Do not feed the fattening hogs any
longer than necessary. Slaughter them
as soon as the temperature of the atmos-
nhoro is ut the freezing point , \yhich is
