Bellefonte, Pa., Sept. 10, 1897. FARM NOTES. —Bad water will make impure, unwhole- some milk. —1It is uncleanly to wet the hands while milking and should be avoided. —To improve the milking qualities of a dairy herd, use bulls only from the best milkers. —Dairy heifers should always be handled familiarly from the first and there will be no trouble. —No dairyman can make uniformly good butter unless his cows are fed liberally with wholesome food. —After cream becomes sour the more ripening given it the more it depreciates, and the sooner it is skimmad and churned the better. —The milk cans, pails and other vessels should be kept clean by first washing in tepid water and then scalding thoroughly in boiling water. —Clean pastures, with good clean water and proper care, is the surest preventive of bitter milk. Weeds, especially ragweeds, cause bitter milk. —In a majority of cases kicking cows are made so by cruelty and harsh words. To have gentle cows it is essential to treat them kindly from the time they are calves. —~Grade your poultry according to age and size. A mixed flock—old and young, layers and supernumeraries, all together— —cannot be properly fed. Three geese to one gander should be the rule. Let the fowls have plenty of water. Even hens enjoy access to a small running stream. A solution of napthalene in kerosene is recom- mended as a lice killer. Dissolve one pound of the napthalene crystals in a gal- lon of coal oil, and apply as kerosene is usually applied. —According to a writer in the Farm Journal nine bundles of hay makes a better ‘‘shock’” than the old-fashioned dozen. Get up four in a cross, then four more, one in each of the spaces betwen two of the first four, and cap with the ninth, well broken, and the tops toward the prevailing wind. If well set, that is, each sheaf standing on its own bottom and thoroughly closed in at the top, such a shock will stand a stiff wind storm and three days’ rain without harm. —Nothing more clearly shows the pains taking and careful farmer than to have fence corners between fields or along the roadside kept free from weeds, grass or shrubs. As a rule all the old-time fence corners were kept scrupulously clean. A good deal of valuable hay was made from what the scythe reached in and cut there. But when the horse mower and self-bind- ing reaper came into use, it every year be- came harder to find anybody who could be hired to clear out the fence corners. The result was that the axe rather than the scythe was required and the growth, in- stead of being restricted jto fence corners, encroached each year on the cultivated fields. —The arrangement of fields and their size and shape have much todo with ease and rapidity of getsing in crops, and some- times the saving of a few hours’ work makes a week’s difference in the time of finishing plowing and the sowing of a field. It is strange that more attention is not given to the arrangemept of fields with reference to long furrows and to similarity of soil. A square acre 'plowed with a 15 inch furrow requires 84 rounds and 336 turns, while the same area in the form of a parellogram, 2 rods by 80, requires only 13 rounds and 52 turns. It is safe to say that in the one form it will take twice the time to plow that it does in the other, to say nothing of the serious trampling which the square piece will be subject to. Rotation often stands in the way of making rad- ical changes in the form of fields, but in most cases greater economy of culture would soon make up for any loss of this score. —According to the report of the United States Commission of Agriculture, England imports for annual consumption $48,000,- 000 worth of eggs. New York city and state alone consume $48,000,000 worth of eggs and poultry every year. The United States yearly consumes $500,000,000 worth of eggs and poultry. Canada exports $30,- 000,000 worth of eggs annually. The egg industry is worth $150,000,000 more than all the dairy products of this nation. The poultry poducts of this country aggegate more in a year than any single crop. Of all the country’s industries the poultry in- dustry is most generally pursued. It 1896 the poultry earnings of the United States amounted to $290,000,000 being a greater value by $52,000,000 than our entire wheat crop, $105,000,000 greater than our swine brought us, $30,000,000 more than our cotton crop, more than three times as great as all the interest paid on the mort- gages during the year, $112,000,000 more than we spend for schools ; and yet there are people who think the hen ‘‘small pota- toes.”’ —The horse or colt that is accustomed to getting fast in the stall can he prevented from doing so by the use of a strap fastened to a joist overhead, so that the animal can- not get its head quite down to the floor. This or a similar device is necessary in some cases. Very often one wishes to hitch a horse when he has neither halter or hitching strap, only the bridle rein. He will find it difficult to make the horse fast to the ordinary hiching post. Bore an auger hole eight inches helow the end of the post and saw down to it an elongated V shaped slot two inches wide at the top and one-fourth of an inch wide at the bottom. You can easily pass the bridle rein through the slot into the hole or bring it out again, but the horse cannot get it out. In addition to: the foregoing, the journal quoted gives some horse talk as follows : Don’t work the colt too hard. Give him a chance to mature. Bran is one of the best foods to grow good muscle and sound bone in a colt. Observant readers have seen the ill effects of hitching a spirited and naturally fast walking colt by the side of a slow walking, moping horse be- cause he is steady, but this should never be done and cannot be done without per- manent injury to the gait of the colt. Roading may do for light stallions, but genuine work is the best time in connec- tion with good food for the shire, draft and coach sires. A warm mash does good occasionally. Don’t let the bowels of any horse become constipated. a Dueling in America. Paris is reported to be all excitement over the duel between two scions of French and Italian royalty arising out of some reflec- tions made by the former upon the conduct of the Italian troops in the Abyssinian cam- paign. The modern American mind can- not perceive that the killing of either one or both of the duelists would have settled the question which formed the pretext for their encounter, or sympathize with the turmoil raised in the French capital by the affair. Still, it was well along in the present cen- tury before Americans learned thoroughly the lesson that dueling was a most foolish practice and that brave men could refuse a challenge without incurring any real 1m- putation upon their honor or courage. When the practical question was squarely presented to the practical American mind as to what good purpose dueling could serve, the inevitable answer was such as to doom the practice to emphatic popular dis- approval. And yet this decision was not reached until much valuable blood had been shed in this country. * % The first duel in America is said to have taken place in 1621, at Plymouth, in the present State of Massachusetts, between two serving men. The result was similar to that in most of the modern French duels, both parties escaping without any serious injury. But the Pilgrim fathers, who had just set foot on the shores of New England the preceding year, were not dis- posed to encourage the practice of dueling, and so they incontinently tied the two con- testants together by the neck and heels and kept them so for a number of hours, during which they had doubtless ample time to assuage their wounded honor. Notwithstanding this summary discipline, only seven years later a young man named Woodbridge was killed in a duel on Bos- ton common by another young man named Phillips. They fought with swords in the night, without seconds, the survivor escap- ing to France on a man-of-war. The af- fair caused a great sensation, and new and very stringent laws against dueling were at once enacted. Rr There were some notable duels during the revolution, the most celebrated being those between Gen. Charles Lee and Col. John Laurens, in which the former was wounded, and between Gens. Cadwalader and Conway, in 1778, in which the latter received a shot in the head, from which he recovered. Button Gwinnett, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, was killed in a duel with Gen. McIntosh, mn May, 1777. In 1785 Capt. Gunn chal- lenged Gen. Nathaniel Greene twice and threatened a personal assault when the lat- ter refused to meet him. Gen. Greene wrote to Washington, acknowledging that if he thought his honor would suffer from his refusal he would accept the challenge. The Father of His Country very sensibly decided that it was not necessary for his great lieutenant to make an unnecessary target of himself. Of course, the most noted of American duels was that between Aaron Burr, at that time vice President of the United States, and Alexander Hamil- ton, formerly Washington’s secretary of the treasury, and at the time the leader of the opposition. Although killing his an- tagonist, the result was equally fatal to Burr's political career, and the duel had a powerful effect in attracting public atten- tion to the necessity of putting an end to such encounters. * * * On May 30th, 1806, Andrew Jackson, afterward President of the United States, killed Charles Dickinson in a duel. Dick- inson had in a letter characterized Jackson as ‘“‘a worthless scoundrel, poltroon and coward,” and in the backwoods of Ten- nessee in those days such language meant death. Jackson was himself badly wound- ed, and he suffered from the effects of Dick- inson’s bullet until his death. It is signif- icant that this same Andrew Jackson when President, 24 years later, caused the names of four officers to be struck from the navy roll because they had been engaged in a duel. The killing of the idol of the American navy, Commodore Stephen De- catur, in 1820, by Commodore James Bar- ron, in a duel, helped greatly to bring the practice into popular disrepute. In 1826 John Randolph, of Roanoke, denounced President John Adams and his secretary of State, Henry Clay, as ‘‘a combination of the Puritan and the blackleg.”” Clay promptly challenged Randolph, and they met on the field of honor, without any blood being shed. however, as a result. In 1841 Clay came near having another duel with Wm. R. King, then Senator from Alabama. Thomas H. Benton killed Charles Lucas in a duel and was engaged in other similar but less fatal affairs. In 1802 DeWitt Clinton, subsequently Gov- ernor of New York, exchanged five shots with John Swartwout. * * On the 24th of February, 1838, Jonathan Cilley, member of Congress from Maine, was killed in a duel at Bladensburg, Md., by Wm. J. Graves, Congressman from Kentucky. Rifles were the weapons used, and on the third fire Mr. Cilley fell, shot through the body. and died instantly. Graves was censured by the House of Repre- sentatives to which he failed of re-election. In 1859 David C. Broderick, United States Senator from California, was killed in a duel by David S. Terry, chief justice of California, who himself was shot down 30 years later by a United States marshal while attempting to assault justice Stephen J. Field, of the United States Supreme court. Rockefeller Denounced. 8t. Louis Preacher Makes an Attack on the Mil- lionaire. At the closing of the New York mission- ary society convention held in Rochester, Rev. F.C. Tyrrell, of St. Louis, spoke on Social Reform in the church,” and created a stir by his reference to Millionaire Rock- efeller. ‘“We have come to the day,” he said, ‘when the commercial brigand stands not on the highway to filch the passers-by, but behind an oil faucet, levying toll on his fellow citizens in the form of profit. The smell of Rockefeller’s millions will not im- pregnate the air with one-half the stench as do its donations to colleges and universi- ties of the land, for the latter are given un- der the mask of religion.” TROUBLED SEVERAL YEARS.— ‘I was a great sufferer with salt rheum on my limbs.

The Prosecution Has Not Yet Made Its Most Ef- fective Point Against Luetgert.—Gruesome Ex- hibit on Tap.—Widow to Whom the Prisoner Made Love Testifies Against Him. The Luetgert trial is still creating a sen- sation in Chicago. The State’s attorney is to produce at the trial a portion of a skull, a number of teeth and the first joint of what is believed to be the left index finger of a human hand which, it is claimed, were found in the vat in the basement of the sausage factory. Already testimony has been introduced to show that there were particles of flesh found in and around the vat by the police and others appearing as State witnesses, but so far there has been a doubt as to the ability of the State to prove that these were partieles of human flesh. Grewsome as these particles of hones are, it is believed by the attorneys for the State that they will be convincing when intro- duced as evidence along with the expert tes- timony of Professors Delafontaine and Haines that they are human. These two experts, as a result of experiments recently conducted, will, it is said, state positively that it is possible, under the ciocumstances under which it is alleged by the State that Luetgert worked, to destroy and disinte- grate a human body. MORE RING WITNESSES. Additional witnesses have identified the rings found in the vat. Frieda Mueller, a niece of Mrs. Luetgert, said the rings were the ones which Mrs. Luetgert wore habitually. Mis. Christina Pearce, of 655 Claybourn avenue, said she had known Mrs. Luetgert since she was a small girl. Mrs. Luetgert before her marriage to the sausage maker lived at the house of wit- ness’ mother. She said that at a picnic a year ago, which Mrs. Luetgert attended, the wedding ring was the subject of a con- versation in which it was remarked that Mrs. Luetgert wore no jewelry except her wedding ring. On cross-examination the witness said she had never seen a wedding ring off Mrs. Luetgert’s hand, knew noth- ing of the initials in it, but identified it from its size and general appearance. LUETGERT’S FAVORITE WIDOW. There was a sensation when Mis. Chris- tine Feldt of 151 Clybourn avenue, was called for the State. Mrs. Feldt isa wid- ow, whose name has often been mentioned in connection with the case. It was be- lieved she would be one of the main wit- nesses for the defense, but she had not been before the july two minutes when it be- came apparent that she had gone over to the prosecution. She produced a bundle of letters written to her by Luetgert from jail, and carried to her home by Luetgert’s son Arnold. The letters were filled with endearing terms. They began ‘‘Beloved, Dear Christine,”’ or ‘‘Beloved Christine,’ and in them Luetgert told of sufferings he was enduring as an innocent prisoner in the jail. Lrcigert over and over again as- sured his correspondent that he would over come the police and ‘‘be with her a free man.’’ Mrs. Feldt testified that Luetgert told her months ago that he cared more for Mary Simmering, the servant, than he did for his wife. She said she visited his house May 5th, and asked Mary Simmering where Mrs. Luetgert was. Mary replied that she had gone down town and would be back shortly. The witness then asked Luetgert about it, and he told her Mary had lied to her and that his wife had disap- peared. Luetgert said his wife had on former occasions left him for several days, without any explanation, and he did not know where she had gone. He then made the statement that he cared more for Mary than he did for his wife. LEUTGERT NEEDED MONEY. The witness told of a visit to Leutgert at the jail. The prisoner sent her a request through Judge Vincent, his attorney, to come to the jail. ILeutgert then endeav- ored to persuade her so loan him money to pay for his defense. He asked her, she said, to put a mortgage on her house in order to raise the money. Mrs. Feldt said she told Leutgert to apply to other friends for money, and he told her he had been unable to find anyone who would help him. “If you go back on me,”’ he said, “I will take my life.”” The witness said he ought to be ashamed to talk that way, on account of his children, and he replied that even his children did not care for his life. She said she then left him. Little Gottliene Schrimpke, 14 years old testified that on the night of May 1st, shortly after 11 o’clock, she and her sister, Annie, returning from a dance, passed the Leutgert house. Her own home is close to the sausage factory. The girl said she saw Leutgert and his wife walk around the corner of the factory into the alley in the rear of it. While being crossed-examined the girl became hysterical and had to be removed from the witness chair. Subsequently she said it was her sister, 20 years old, who saw Mr. and Mrs. Luetgert that night and told her mother about it. Judge Tuthill said that, Monday being a legal holiday, he would not hold court. Mrs. Annie Gieser, of Chicago Heights, was a servant in the Luetgert household up to the fall of 1889. She identified the wedding ring and the small guard ring positively. The witness produced a photo- graph of herself, taken in 1888, when she wore the two rings. Mrs. Luetgert, she said, offered her the rings to have her pic- ture taken. ——When the farmers take the trouble to consider the causes of the present de- mand for their corn and wheat and the en- hancement of prices they can only reach one conclusion. Two words tell the story: Short crops. The nations now buying our surplus are compelled to trade with us because of their own necessities, not be- cause of any favoring disposition. At the same time that they are buying shiploads of our breadstuffs we are making com- mercial war against them by discouraging the exchange of commodities except after the infliction of heavy penalties. We are only restrained from a still more offensive policy by treaty stipulations. The farm- ers will understand that the tariff policy of this country tends steadily to discour- age the growth of our export trade and to thus cut them off from their markets. They owe much this year to the perversity of Nature, but nothing to the obstructive perversity of politicians. ——J.

There will be no more ‘‘rushes’” at the University of California if President Kel- log’s latest mandate is obeyed. Half-dazed his jaw broken, his face a bleeding mass, Benjamin Kurtz, a newly-entered fresh- man, was found wandering about the cam- pus after the rush between the two lower classes. In the struggle some one put his heel on Kurtz’s face, and as a result he is disfig- ured for life and may have sustained an in- jury of the brain. An examination showed that a piece of flesh had been torn from one nostril. The upper lip hung only by a shred, and the ragged nature of the tear made the injury the more serious. All the front teeth were gone. Four teeth had been knocked out of the lower bone, and the bone was broken off with them. Both the upper and lower jaws were smashed and flesh of all the face crushed and bleed- ing. There were two other casualties. Frank Marshall, a Freshman, had his right leg broken just above the ankle. Another Freshman named Conlin came out of the combat with a broken leg also. Sadie Harris’ Strange Death, Sadie Harris, a 15-year old daughter of Robert and Ann Harris, Newbury, New York, died under peculiar circumstances recently last Sunday afternoon Mrs. Harris said the or daughter : ‘Sadie, I believe you are going to die.’ “I know I am, mother. God is looking down on me now."’ The girl had not been feeling well for two or three days, and the day previous had complained of a severe headache. She threw herself across a bed in a room off the dining room, and from that time upytil the afternoon, when she died, six full days, she did not move of her own volition. She appeared to be in a trance. The family physician, Dr. S. E. Sweeney, was called, and he, with three other physicians, have not only been powerless to help her, but unable to tell just what the ailment was. She lay on her back, with her eyes tightly closedand lips slightly parted. At times he breathing was unnaturally rapid. Many futile attempts were made to bring her out of her appaient trance. Miss Harris was a handsome girl of slen- der figure, and with brown hair and eyes. She was very popular in her neighborhood. ‘Niagara Falls. $10 Excursion via Pennsylvania Railroad.

James Crocket, a sturdy old Scotchman, living in Detroit, Michigan, at 88 Mont- calm Street, was asked about his wonder- ful cure. “First,”’ he said, ‘‘I must tell you some- thing of my life before my almost fatal sickness. I was born in Scotland in 1822, and came to this country in 1848. Iam a marine engineer by trade. In 18721 was in the employ of the Detroit and Cleveland Navigation Co., and for fifteen years I was chief engineer on one of their hig passenger steamers. My first boat was the R. N. Rice, which was burned at the docks. Then I was transferred to the Rubie, which was chartered to make the run between Detroit and Cleveland. “I brought out the new steamer the ‘City of the Straits,’ and for years acted as her chief engineer. It is a great responsi- bility, the pesition of chief engineer on those big passenger palaces. Thousands of lives are held in the keeping of the engi- neer. The anxiety causes a great nervous strain, and the strictest attention is neces- sary. Not for a moment must he lose his watchfulness. “For fifteen years I carefully watched the big engines and boilers without a sin- gle accident, and only noticed that I was getting nervous. Suddenly without warn- ing I was taken sick, and in less than a week 1 was prostrated. I had the best of physicians. I grew gradually worse, and ‘at the council of doctors, they said I had nervous prostration, and had destroyed my whole nervous system and would never be able to be upagain. They said I had worn myself out by the long nervous strain caused by watching and worrying about the machinery. For three long years I was unable to move from my bed without assistance. The doctor said I had locomo- tor ataxia, and would never he able to walk again. ‘‘The pains and suffering I experienced during those years are almost indescribable. My wife used to put eight or ten hot water bags around me to stop the pain. Those that came to see me and bid me good-bye when they left me, and I was giv- en up. The doctors said nothing more could be done for me. ‘“We tried every known remedy, and my wife kept reading the articles about Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People to me. Finally she said they only cost 50 cents, and she wanted to know if I would try them. To please her I consented, and and the first box gave me relief. I con- tinued to use them for about two years be- fore I could get strength enough to walk. It came slow, but sure, but what I am to- day is due wholly to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. “I am nearly seventy-five years old to- day, and there is not a man in the whole city that can kick higher or walk further than I can to-day. If any one has locomo- tor ataxia that reads this, let them come and see me to-day. Can you tell me a man to-day in this big city that can do bet- ter than that?’ said Mr. Crocket, zs he kicked the reporter’s hat, which was held high above his head. ‘Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale Peo- ple made me what Iam to-day. I only wish I could persuade others to do as I did and take them before it is too late.” (Signed) “JAMES CROCKET.’’ Before me, a Notary Public, personally appeared James Crocket, who signed and swore to the above statement as being true in every particular.
