O COOL GRAY JUG.
0 cool gray jug that touched the lips
In kiss that softly closed and clung!
No Spanish wine the tippler sips,
Or port the poet's praise has sung.
Such pure untainted sweetness yeilds
As cool gray jug in harvest fields.
I see it now! a clover leaf ;
Qutspread upon its sweating side.
As from the standing sheaf
1 pluck and swing it high, the wide
Field glows with noonday heat ;
The winds are tangled in the wheat;
"I'he myriad crickets blithely cheep;
Across the swash of ripened grain
1 see the burnished reaper creep;
The lunch-boy comes, and once again
‘The jug its crystal coolness yields—
0 cool gray jug in harvest fields!
Hamlin Garland, in Harper's Weekly.
A S—————
——
Get ready for spring by killing the
weeds before they can go to seed.
single small seed that is turned under
the soil is preserved during the win-
ter to produce a large weed in the
spring, and thus adds to the labor at a
season when every hour is required for
getting the crops in. Farmers do not
neglect to kill the weeds while the
regular crops are growing, as they are
then compelled to cultivate. It is
after the crops harvested that the
weeds take full possession of the farm,
and the fall is time when weed des:
truction should be done.
The way to learn who are good far-
mers is to observe how the farmers
manage their manure heaps. The best
farmers attach more importance to the
manure, and its quality, than to any-
thing else, as well as to its proper pre-
servation from loss. All crops not
sold finally go back to the farm in the
shape of manure, thus aiding to pro-
duce other crops, but there is a loss in
the value of the manure if it is noi
kept in a manner to retain its plant
food until wanted on the land.
More hay instead of wheat would
probably be an advantage. Hay is an
article that always brings a good price
when shipped to market, and also
possesses a high value on the farm
when fed to stock. Land that produces
90 bushels of wheat per acre should
produce aton and a half of hay (a
low estimate), and the land will be
improved by the grass crop under a
proper system of rotation.
"The fall is an excellent time for pur-
chasing pure bred stock, as the prices
are then lower than at any other sea-
gon, for the reason that the breeders
are reducing stock before the winter
gets in, and are willing to make a re-
duction in price. The money expend-
ed for pure bred animals is one of the
best investments that can be made,
and gains compound interest, in a
short time.
Great large hogs are not as numer
ous as they were & decade ago. The
demand at present is more for hogs of
medium size, and farmers have become
disposed to give greater attention to
early maturing breeds rather than to
those that attain great size. By vary-
ing the food, instead of using corn
mostly, the quality of the pork is also
improved.
Buckwheat should now provide
work for th bees. Honey made from
buckwheat ie somewhat dark in ap-
pearance, which is objectionable, but
as bees can find no forage upon which
to work at this season a field of buck-
wheat is a valuable acquisition to the
housekeeper now.
There will be a great advantage
gained in looking over the seed wheat,
50 as to rid it of the seeds of weeds,
as well as to avoid imperfect or disease
ceeds. Such work may be done by
screening the seed carefully, aud it will
save time in the spring.
A good sharp plow saves the teams
and does better work than a plow that
is rusty and dull, Itis the most im-
portant element on the farm, and
should be always in condition for work
and to save labor.
If you are setting out raspberries
‘this fall, try and place them where
they will not suffer for moisture.
Lack of moisture about fruiting time is
sure {0 ruin the crop and profit.
An exhange says that the paths in
‘the garden can be kept free from weeds
:and graes by pouring over them boil-
ing hot suds on wash days, putting a
‘handful of salt in each bucket of sude.
After the mower has been over a
‘field there will be some spots that must
be attended to by hand. These
.should be looked after and cleaned up
-especiglly where weeds can be noticed.
Assort the eggs before sending them
‘to market, so as to have them uniform
din color and size, and better prices will
result.
Stock-on poor grass will be apt to
find the weak places in the fences, es-
pecially iif there is any tempting food
on the other side.
In order to get the fat all out of the
butter the chura should not be filled
too full. It is mecessary to give the
cream CONCUSSION.
Those who are so fortunate this year
as to have fruit should be sure that
none goes to waste. What cannot be
gold should be evaporated.
If there are any farm tools lying out
in the sun, bitch up the horses espe-
cially for that purpose, if necessary,
and put them under the shelter.
If any cattle man doubts the efficacy
ot good breeding, let him watch the
difference in the way well-bred cattle
and common stock sell in the market.
The daily use of good ripe fruit eaves
doctor bills.
This time of year the orchaid will be
benefitted by turning the pigs into it.
The Cherokee Outlet.
The President's proclamation opening
the Cherokee Outlet, or Strip, as it is
generally called, on September 16 to
settlement ends a prolonged effort on the
part of the white man to get possession
of these lands. It is the most important
and largest tract thrown open to settlers
in the Indian Territory and it will make
in all about 18,000,000 acres of that
Territory that the red man has sold to
his white brother.
This latest accesssion to the public
lands of the United States is a long strip
lying directly south of the southern bor-
der of Kansas and north of Oklahoma
and stretching nearly the whole width
of the Indian Territory from east to
west. It was given to the Cherokee
tribe of Indians about fifty years &go,
soon after their removal to a reservation
in the northeast corner of the Indian
Territory. Whether there was an out
and out gift of the land or whether the
grant only included the right to use the
country as an outlet to the West for
hunting purposes is not very clear. The
Indians were shrewd enough, however,
to claim it as a pure gift, and the Gov-
ernment, sooner than haveany cloud on
the title, recognized the claim and
agreed to pay the $8,000,000 asked for
the 6,000,000 acres.
With the addition of the Cherokee
Outlet lands a territory of respectable
size will now be in possession of the
white man where a few years ago only
the Indian roamed. Oklahoma with its
2,000,000 acres was the entering wedge.
Then a narrow strip along the eastern
boundary of Oklahoma and containing
about 1,000,000 acres was opened. And
last year a tract of 4,000,000 acres lying
southwest of Oklahoma was declared
ready forsettlement. These three tracts
with the Cherokee Outlet make a terri-
tory three times as large as the State of
New Jersey, four times as large as Con-
necticut and nearly half as large as
Pennsylvania. There are other portions
of the old Indian Territory which will
probably be soon added, but which will
still leave the five civilized tribes in
possession of & goodly Leritage, and
with a large income from the Govorn-
ment besides.
The Government has apparently
learned from its past experience with
thoomers'’ and “‘sooners,”” and has made
regulations which will aid in a more
equitable distribution of the lands and
prevent many of the conflicts that oc-
curred 1n previous years as to the right
to claims. But notwithstanding these
regulations, there will doubtless be on
September 16 the same wild rush of po-
nies, bicycles and prairie schooners to
get a quarter section of land no more
valuable than farms in the older States
that can be purchased at as low a price.
ATA
The Change Not Here
WThis,” the Gazetle and Bulletin
says, is how its exchanges are talking :
«Jrarmers, how do you like it ? Wheat
65 cents a bushel 1.” The Gazette and
Bulletw’s jeering of workingmen and
farmers who voted for Grover Cleveland
and a change will be placed, by sensible
men, along with the stock and trade of
the calamity howler who has done so
much to cause the present financial con-
dition.
But one thing should be borne in
mind.
The change which was voted for has
not yet come. It could nol come in a
few months, Revolutions in economies
and policies are not made in a day any
more than the revolutions of blood are.
Nearly all the evils which the Demo-
crats were elected to remove, remain.
But they will be removed. At the same
time, the deeplanted tree of Republican
misrule and unwise laws is not so easily
uprooted. It is much easier to puss a
bad law than to undo it. Its very be-
ing, once a law, gives it graatersirength
than it had before it was resolved {rom
simple elements into positive life.
The Sherman silver purchase act and
the McKinlay tariff law are still io
force, and until they are repealed the
eople must suffer. We are, therefore
iving under conditions due to Republi-
can laws. That these conditions are
bad is admitted by men of all paities,
and similar admissions must follow that
the laws which caused the conditions
are not Democratic laws ; and that the
people have told the Democratic party
to change them, and itis the duty of
that party to do so, equally is true.
The national finances remain practi-
célly unchanged, and the deficiency left
us by Mr, Harrison we still have with
us. The $200,000,000 which Cleveland
turned over to Harrison, reserve and
surplus, cannot be brought back in six
months.
Therefore, if there is anything about
the present condition which the people
do not like, they will put the blame
where it belongs, and when the changes
which they asked for have been made—
when the people’s dollar is worth 100
cents and they are not robbed for the
monopolist—we will see how they like
it.— Williamsport Sun.

Mica In Stockings.
The Very Newest “ Yankee Notion” is Speckled
Hosiery Yarn.
The latest in hosiery yarns is the ap-
plication of ground mica in such a way
that a very striking effect is produced.
Mica exists in great quantities on the
banks of the Yuba river, which runs
through California near the foot-hills of
the Sierra mountains. At present there
is no market value for the stuff. The
inventor of the new idea which we have
under consideration has imported a bar-
rel of this mica and has it now in his
experimenting apartments. The mica
is run through a common coffee-grind-
ing mill before it can be used advanta-
geously. This is to break up the lar-
gest pieces,
When the material is removed from
the coffee mill it looks like small white
specks. From this point the substance
is taken direct to the apparatus for fix-
ing the pieces to the yarn. The hosiery
manufacturer likes to keep his yarns
upon the bobbin till knit into goods ;
hence the new process is 80 arranged
that the yarns are left on the bobbins,
just as they were in the beginning, after
the operation of putting on the mica has
been done. The yarn is drawn over
cylinders in such a way that the pieces
of mica are fixed into the yarns, thus
producing the right effect. — Boston

Woux Luxe.—This is the queer name
of a Chinese laundryman in Hartford,
but he has probably two lungs, like
most of us. Some crying babies seem
to have a dozen. Lungs should be
sound, or the voice will have a weekly
sonnd. Dr. Pierce’s Medical Discovery
makes strong lungs, drives the cough
away, generates good blood, tones the
nerves, builds up the human wreck an
makes “another man’ of him. Night
sweats, blood-spitting, short breath,
bronchitis, asthma, aud all alarming
forerunners of Consumption, are posi
tively cured by this unapproachable
remedy. If taken in time, Consump-
tion itself can be baffled.

Ix CHiLDHOOD’S HAPPY DAY'S.—
Among the incidents of childbood that
stand out in bold relief, as our memory
reverts to the days when we were young,
none are more prominent than severe
sickness. The young mother vividly re-
members that it was Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy cured her of croup, and
in turn administers it to her own off-
spring and slways with the best results.

LMOST MASS SORES
SO PAINFUL NO REST AT NIGHT. DOC-
TOR NO HELP. CURE SPEEDY AND
COMPLETE BY CUTICURA.
Late in the fall of 1890 I was afflicted with
salt rheum or eczema. My face, head, and
neck were almost a complete mass of sores
and some other parts of my body were afflicted
1 had been letting it rum, thinking it was
nothing but a simple skin diseaseand it would
cure itself, but I soon found out my mistake,
for the sores became so painful I could not
rest at night. 1 called a physician and began
to take his medicine, but it did not help me in
the least. A friend of mine prevailed on me
to try your Outicura Remedies, which 1 did
using the Cuticura and Cuticura Soap exter-
nally, and the Cuticura Resolvent internally,
and from the start it began to help me, the
sores began to heal up and disappear and my
health became better, my appetite keener,
and I began to gain in flesh, and [think I am
now completely cured. My ski is as smooth
and as fine as it ever was. 1 send you my por
trait. 1 heartily recommend your Cuticura
Remedies to all those afflicted with skin or
blood diseases, for I am positive they will cure
them.

sively for the sale of harness, being the first
exclusive salesroom ever used in this town, as

16x74 feet and the store 20x60 added makes it
the largest establishment of its kind outside
of Philadelphia and Pittsburg.
