Why do the farmers persist in holding to such Inferior breeds I Farmers would Iwtter reduce their herds to one-fourth their numbers , which , with the same amount of money Invested and with one-fourth the labor , would return them double profits. There Is always a demand for the best , and with the short-.horns , Galloways , Polled An us , Hod Poll , Hereford , Swiss , West Highlander , Devon and Holstcln to select from , the fancy of every farmer or stock raiser can bo suited and his Income largely increased. The men who hang to the scrubs are often those who complain most of hard times and curse the government instead of correcting their own mistakes. CUT WO11.M3. Wo have not yet conquered the brown coats , but progress is being made. Wo have 1 canted that proper rotation of crops is not only a help to the Soil , but an enemy to the cut worms' prosperity. After the worms have come , however , some other methods must bo applied , and the copperas remedy is now the ono generally recommended. But there arc many other remedies. With a stick punch a hole into the ground about three inches deep near the plant , into which the worm , when ho comes out to feed , will fall and starve. Saturate bunches of fresh clover with Paris green or London purple and strew It about the plants. The worms will feed on it and die. Totnatoo , cabbage and other plants may bo protected by enclosing them with stiff paper or an old tin can , with both heads knocked out , pressed Into the earth an inch or more. To kill the cut worms and stop their propagation it is necessary to fallow plow the meadow or gross land before September. Most cut worm moths lay their eggs in the late summer or early fall , and these meadow or grass lands broken up and planted in corn arc the localities where the principal trouble with cut worms occurs. After breaking these lauds in the latter part of August it is neces sary to Harrow , or otherwise continue to stir the soil as to break up the security of the deposited eggs. It rather a strange fact that pastured meadow or grass lands , when broken up for corn , donot produce cut worms. At least this is the case in north Missouri and southern Iowa and probably the sauio holds good in other sections. TUG GUUDMXO MOTH. The cuddling moth is busy at this time of the season stinging the little apples and de positing its eggs. To destroy this insect take laudon purple , one pound to 100 gallons of water , or pans green , ono pound to MO gallons of water , and with a force pump or large syringe throw the water over the apple trees. The object is to get a drop ol the water to enter the blossom end of the apple and thereby destroy the eggs of the moth. A promiscuous spraying will not save all thu apples , of course , because the water will not enter all of them ; but most of them maybe saved if the spraying is applied before the weight of the apples bends the twig , point ing the blossom end of the apple downward so that the water cannot enter it. Where a few favorite apples are wanted , entirely free from the stings of these insects , they can be saved later in the season by talcing them in detail and filling the blossom end with the poisonous solution. This poison will not damage the apples. They will rather relish the physic. AHOUT JIEKS. One of the difllculties in bee raising is the foul brood which sometimes materially in jures the young broods. It appears to bo a souring of young larvas. The caps over the cells become sunken , a peculiar odor , like that of old glue , is produced , and when the cells are opened a dark strlnyy mass of slimy matter , putrid and coftco colored , is found. As a remedy the bees must bo transferred to new , clean hives. The care of bees and production of honey , when rightly understood , may bo made both profitable and pleasant. The Feeding of Llttlq Chickens. In the last issue of the American Poultry Yard is un excellent article from Airs. C. C. Moody of Enst Hartford , Conn. , on'tlio breeding1 of young1 chicks. She suys : "So much has been said of late iu to the best maimor of feeding young chicks , and so many are decidedly ooposod to feeding1 hard boiled cgfjs , that perhaps a word or two of my ex perience may not come amiss. I have raised broilers for early market for years , with fairly good success. I do not mean to say that I know all about the business by any means ; on the contrary , I learn something1 now every year , but will say that I have never seen in print a statement showing a larger per cent raised than I can give. I have always given hard boiled eggs at first , and have fed hjdidos an occasional meal the first and second week. But there IH such a thing as carrying anything in this world too far. Even virtues may go to excess. J-Jecauso fresh moat is good for fowls , no ono would bo stupid enough to give that only. Every ono knows that the reason a chicle needs no food for the first day of its life Js because the yolk of the egg is boiiif * absorbed , ull'ording1 nourishment , and is it not reasonable that the first feed given should bo somewhat of the same nature ? I never give stale eggs. Either tho.so tested out of the fifth or sixth day or fresh eggs tire given. I do not think eggs are lit to feed taken from the second testing. Finely chopped and mixed with two or throe limes the bulk of bread crumbs , allowing about ono egg to ono do/.on chicks , never hurt my little ones in the least. I would not dare give ogirs alone ; I would not tluro give hard cracked corn alone at lirst , though I have seen people who did those very things , and had the pleasure of hurylng all the broods , too. Success largely de pends upon tho"caro and quiet given the lirst two weeks. Now , is not one cause of cholera in a Hock too much heat inbreeds broods and brooder houses , instead of the egg dlotV Ono needs to use good sound souse in this matter of artificial heating. A chick will glvu that unhappy poop , peon , when too hot , UH well as when too cold , and every such poop takes a frac tion of flesh away , and for a time stops the growth , when wo want them to grow as fast as possible. Another cause of cholera may bo traced to a lack of grit. Egg shells should be given at lirst ; oyster shells , clam shells , broken crock ery or stones later on , rind a gradual change of feed of any kind. No sloppy food for young chicles , or older ones either , on this ranch. " Live Stock In Germany. Hiram J. Dunlap , formerly editor of the Champaign (111. ( ) Gazette , now con sul to HrcHlau , Germany , in the course of an interesting letter to his paper has this to say of live Btouk-ln that country : J have already mentioned the fact that all domestic animals are taught to lead. There hoing no fences anywhere it In therefore necessary to have them very docile so that they can ho tied together and prevented from running into the growing crops.Vhon cattle are taken to market they are tied toyothoy by the head In files of three , four or moro , and a man coos along ahead to lead each | file. Thin would ho rather expensive In the United Stale * . I RAW n lot of cattle yoliitf through the niroots hero a few days ago. Tlioro were nineteen steers hi the drove and most of them had tv hole in the left ear through which u ' cord wan pitssed and tied around the horns of the one alongside. There were , live leaders and one man on horseback. opi ) and pouts all lead , though ifonorally they are marketed in wagons. The hogrt are not so "hog fat" as Ameri can farmers llko to got them , and all that I liavo coon have. Inng snouts , coarse bristles , and are while In color. Last winter a cargo of American cattle was landed in Hnmhurtf , and .ninny were sold to Gorman farmers who desired to fatten thorn. When the cattle were de livered they were driven into chutes and a rope tied around their horns. Then the gate was opened and the purchaser and his steer became acquainted. Tliero was never before such excitement in Hamburg. Away would go the steer with two or throe Dutchmen holding on to the rope , at a 2-10 : gait , running over dog-carts , pedestrians , am ! everything else that got In the way Many of the streets in Hamburg' are very narrow too narrow to even drive a cart through ; others wide enough to iwr- mil ono to pass at a time. These narrow streets were the scene of hair-breadtl escapes , they being1 unusually full o women and children. The men holding to the rope were slung hero and there and generally lot go after the first mile. The "Donnerwottors' ' that- fell in Ham burg1 that day exceeded those of the English army in Flanders. It took twi or three days to gather up the lost caitle , and people have not got over talking about it yet. Since then they have learned that the American steer is not used to being handled in that way. Art lit America. It is true that the Greek hive of beauty in its expression in art was accompanied by a civilization that stopped at a llxcd point and fell , says Harper's Bazar. But the civilization from which women were excluded , as they were in the Creole , would fall to ashes in spite of the love nnd worship of beauty. It is true also that art in modern Europe has not ren dered the race any better whore it flour ishes more freely ; but cramping influ ences of tyranny , disturbed political pressure , and the effect of religious cus toms forbidding individual freedom of opinion will explain that , without re course to the fact that only the bald ma terial beauty is seen by the great num ber , and not the spirit which informs it. In our country we have brought about at last the condition which should bo fostering wealth in abouiidanco , to gether with unlimited freedom of thought and expression , ambition and de-sire for excellence , and beauty every where at hand , in sea or shore , in moun tains , in prairies , in everglades ami pampas , and pastures and orchards and city streets , ami the larger beauty of a people marching on to heaven tilono knows what inighly goal. Here , then , art has a field which no other country has over given it , for in no other country lias it over grown under the agis of mi tional liberty , and in no other country whore women and the homo have been so honored as they are in this so that work which it may yet do for our homes is something that arouses the imagina tion and makes the heart beat. CIIAZEI ) KV IJAJSY'S DI2ATH. A Father and Mother Frantic at the I OHS of Their Child. A strange and pathetic little proces sion was to bo s"on entering this place yesterday morning1 , writes a Livingston , Texas , correspondent. It consisted of a mud-sphished buggy containing a hag gard , disheveled man and woman , with a little coliln at their foot , and Constable Smith loading the poor , tired horse , fol lowed by a crowd of grave-faced men. The man and woman wcro Dr. William Ripperdnm and his wife , from Shady Burn , a little place about eighteen miles east of here , and the collin contained the body of their child. The history of their appearance hero is one of the sad dest possible. About fifteen mouths ago this child was born to the couple who had reached middle .ago without children , and the baby became the idol of its par ents' hearts. It was touching1 to witness their devotion to the little creature , which they attended constantly , and when , about two weeks ago , death robbed them of it the warmest sympathy was felt for them throughout the com munity. Preparations for its burial were inmlo , but on the morning appointed Dr. Rip- pordam and his wife , together with the collin containing the body , were found to have disappeared. Their house was loft open ami only the doctor's buggy and horse were gone. As they had no rela tives to interfere , they were not sought for , and the general supposition was that they had tanon the child elsewhere for burial. But news came in a few days that a buggy containing a man and a woman with a collin was being driven aimlessly about the country. All who mot them declared that ono or the ether of them prayed aloud all the time. Soiiujtimes they were run across seated by a running stream partaking of a meal of crackers , potted moats , etc. , with the horse cropping grass n'our by and the casket besulo them. When accosted inoy answered uiaiinoy leiiroti tiio nody would bo taken from them , and that they hoped by jjrayor to prevail on the deity to restore it to life , quoting the miracle of the widow's son. Tlioy were seen near hero the day "be fore yesterday and were taken charge of by Constable Smith and a posse , who brought the buggy and its occupants with their melancholy treasure to town , when the remains of tlio child were buried. The poor father and mother were frantic , raving and praying during the ceremony. They were given a room nt the Mnyhorry' house and locked in. it being hoped that us the baby was really buried they might resign themselves to their loss , but during the night the pair escaped by a window and were found in the cemetery where they had nearly suc ceeded in exhuming the collin. When taken away they became so violent that It was necessary to secure them. Tlioy have boon adjudged Insane nnd will bo sent to the state asylum tomorrow. The case has oxcltod inm-h sympathy throughout the county , as the doctor has quito a reputation for learning and skill in his profession mid his wife being noted Tor her boiiovolenco and piety. _ _ . . A HIVAIi OF TUAI.V. A Letter that Traveled Around the "World In Kovtmty-NIm ) Duyw. Last February there was a diHcuswlon among some of the guests at the Now "Widsor hotel , In this city , as to whether u letter could bo Bent around the world , says the Hays City , Kan..Times. Charles U Wood , now landlord of thu hotel , wua ) f the opinion that ho could tend a letter 'rom ' Hays City around the globe , and to Drove this a fact ho sat down and wrote u otter to a lady friend living1 at Glasco , , lils state. Instead of directing 'the letter - tor to that place , however , the super scription read : "Miss Ida , "Hong Kong , "China. " Upon the loft end of the front of the nrgo envelope the following directions were wltton : Postmaster-General at Hong Konu : If this otter has not already been called fur , S1GK HEADACHE Positively cured by these Little IMIIs.

Owing to the loss of n day in time by making the tour In a westerly direction , actual time of the journey was seventy-nino days. The buck of the envelope bears the autograph and postmark of nearly all the postmasters through whoso hands it passed. Ono thing wo are happy In state , viz : That this envelope will not indict a sulTeriug public with a series of lectures , or write continued stories upon the strength of its remarkable trip 'round the world , UK Nellie Hly IUIH boon ( loins ; and unless Charley Wood takes it into his head to start out lecturing all will Ub soroiic. A IiYXOIIINtJ NAIlltcnVIjV IWCAPKUT The Intended Victim Owed His SalVly to MisKlni ; n Train. A group of old-timers were talking about the weather , says Hie Minneapolis Journal , and the conversation carried them back to the great storm of years ago. ago."The queerest combination I over know , ' ' .said the judge rellci-livcly , "was a blizzard ( loath , suspected murder , and air attempted lynching that only miscar ried because the subject missed a train. " "Tho winter of 1870-'SO , as you all recollect , was a .very severe one , ami many persons liviiur on the prairie were frozen to death. .Some time before a man named Cramlall had moved from Morris to a farm in southeastern Da kota. One day a big storm came up , ami Mrs. Crandall , who happened , to bo ou the plain with her youngest child , wns caujrht in the blizzard , ami both wore frozen to death. Mrs. C'raiidaH's pa rents lived in Morris , ami when the sad news of her death came her father started for Dakota to bring back the re mains of his daughter and grandchild. , . Crandall and his wife had not got along"1 very well together , and in some way ru mors of foul play crept out. "Tho next afternoon the bereaved father arrived ill Morris with his dead. The bodies were frozen solid , ami ar rangements were made to thaw them out. When this was done Mrs. C'ran- dall's body was examined. A ( lee ) > wound in her side was found. It didu t take the people of Morris long to make up their minds that murder had boon commuted. Craiidall , it wns thought , V had arrived that night with his surviving - \ ing child , and gone to the house of his \ . mother , who lived near the village. A Si lynching party was organized in short order and armed with ropes , otc. The house was visited ami thoroughly searched , but Crandall was not to bo found. Ills mother insisted that ho had not arrived , but she was not believed. Finally the crowd gave up the search and wont homo disgusted. "Now comes the strange part of the story. The next morning tlio body of Mrs' . Craiidall had been entirely thawed out and another examination was made. There was no sign of the broad gash that hori'ilied the people the night be fore. There were no bruises , no signs of foul play. There's a mystery for you ! But it developed after awhile that the llcsh had folded over and frozen to gether , giving the exact appearance of a long ami horrible gash. When the body thawed out the gash disappeared. I tell you the woUld-ba lynchors of the niglir before felt pretty cheap. In an hour or two Crandall himself arrived in town on the morning train. Ho had missed the train the night before. That was all that saved him from a lynching. Of course ho could not help hearing about what had boon .going on ; what ho said or thought about it I never know , hut you can guess , " Tlio Senator and the Walter. While traveling together recently , three southern politicians Logoiulro , Sommes and Hen Hill lunched iu a rail way restaurant. Messrs. Seiiimes and Hill attacked the bill of fare to the ex tent of $1 , and Mr. Legomlre contented himself with a sovonty-llvc-cont meal. Breakfast ended , tlu three gentlonu-n each handed the waiter a silver dollar. Twenty-five cents was duo Legondro , liowevor , and this amount the waiter re- iiirncd to him on the tray , says the New York Star. Mr. Lt-gonuro replaced the quarter on the tray to "tip" tiio waiter , i'lio waiter , placing the money in a glows ) ii the tray , passed it to Mr. Sommcs as i gentle reminder of what was expected of him. Mr. Sommcs was , however , > usily conversing with his friend Mr. ' Hill at the time , and in an ibsont-mindod way appropriated the tip-money under tl o impression that it vas his change. The waiter was dunib- ounded , and Mr.Logomlro , somewhat ombnrniHSod , boekonod to him and Iroppod an additional quarter on the tray to ooothe his fooling ; . This tlrtr" vaiter pawnI to Mr. Hill , with the hope hat he , at least , hud "caught on , " and hat Mr. Sonimcs might Dually b ) irought to a knowledge of his mistuKi- .
