THE FINE CATTLE TO BE SOLD AT STATE COLLEGE.—Owing to the recent destruc- | tion by fire of the State College barn, to- | gether with the entire season’s crop of hay and grain, it is deemed best by the execu- | tive committee of the board of trustees to | disperse the dairy and beef herd, which | has been kept partly for illustration and partly for supplying the College professors | with milk. This dispersal will take place | September 22nd, at the College barn, be- ginning sharply at 12:30 o’clock. Of the individual animals offered, too much cannot be said. Most of them are of high grades, and no pains has been spared in building up a herd of the great- est possible usefullness. Among the finest of the offering are some individuals which are worthy of special mention. Two of these are registered Short Horn cows. One is of Cruikshank breeding ; the other of Bates strain. Both are believed to be safely in calf by a registered Short Horn bull of finest breeding. The Bates cow now has a very fine cow calf four months old at her side. Another is a very high grade Short Horn cow safely in calf and, although ineligible to registry, she is in- dividually one of the finest in the herd. Attention is also called to a very fine high grade Guernsey cow. Although a record of this cow has not been kept, she is capa- ble of making 400lbs. of butter yearly, with good handling. It has been decided, because of the great increase of the Experiment Sta- tion herd. to sell a draft of about fif- teen cows and heifers at the same time and place. The Experiment Station herd has been developed to such an extent that it is with difficulty that the Station of- ficers can select the fifteen head to sell. Their sale is rendered necessary by the limited stable room and by the fact that there are twenty heifers to drop calves this fall. The Experiment Station herd fur- nishes a most excellent example of what can be done by any thoughtful, careful dairyman in breeding up a herd at very little expense. The foundation of the herd was purchased seven years ago and consisted of grade Jersey, Guernsey and Ayrshire cows, costing from $25 to $95 per head. At the head of this herd was placed a registered Guernsey bull. By weighing the milk from each individu- al every day and testing her for butter fat once a month, a very good idea was had of her capacity as a butter producer. At first no cow was kept unless she produced 200 pounds of butter a year. After one or two years, when this standard had been at- tained and surpasssed, it was raised to 250 pounds, and all individuals not producing this amount were called from the herd. By this process the herd has finally reached the point where it is considered by many to be the finest working dairy herd in the Commonwealth. The average has been reached of 320 pounds of butter per cow for the entire herd. EA MADE A MURDEROUS ASSAULT oN His STEP-FATHER.—Another text for a tem- perance sermon comes to our notice from Birmingham, just east of Tyrone, where Casper Dehlige made a murderous assault on his step-father and mother. The affair occurred last Saturday even- ing and while intoxicated Casper started a dispute with his father about money matters. In his drunken frenzy young Dehlige opened a large pocket knife and rushed at his father. The mother attempt- ed to step between the two men, when the son stabbed her twice in the neck, inflict-- ing two ugly wounds. She sank to the floor when the infuriated boy plunged the knife into his father’s abdomen, making such a gash that the intestines protruded. The son then fled to the woods, where he was captured, Sunday, after an exciting chase. His wounded parents were taken to the Altoona hospital. Mrs. Dehlige had her gashes stitched together and afterwards returned home. His father is in a serious condition, though is reported to be on a fair way to recovery. — tee THE OPENING OF THE FOOT-BALL SEA- SON AT STATE.—On Saturday, September 25th, the regular foot-ball season at The Pennsylvania State College will he opened. The Pennsylvania College eleven from Get- tysburg will meet the blue and white on the gridiron. While the game is practically a foregone State victory it will afford a splen- did opportunity to form an idea of what may be expected of the home eleven this fall. There will be a number of new men on the line and at least two new ones behind it. Whether the new players will be able to do better than the old team did last fall, is the uppermost question in the students’ minds, but certain it is that they won’t have to do much to do as well. The game will be called at 3 o'clock. Admission 50cts. Pine Grove Mention. Miss Gertie Miller is visiting Mifflin county friends. Michael Hess and wife Sundayed at the Central hotel on Main street.

On Monday of this week Mr. Edom Wil- liams fell from a wagon and broke his thigh. Dr. Dale adjusted the bone and the old gen- tleman is getting along nicely considering his age and the hot weather. We were misinformed as to the Gates and Geist wedding. They were married by the Rev. Bergstresser in Tyrone. Several days after the groom left for the west and it is supposed he will send for the bride later. A move is being made to erect a telephone line between this place and McAlevy’s Fort vla.

One day last week David Frantz was leaning over looking down into a deep well, which his son, Harry, was cleaning, when suddenly bis hands slipped and he plunged forward into the well, where he hung for a few seconds with his feet caught on a board. Fortunately, just at this time Mr. Keichline put on his appearance and was able to grab the old man from an untimely death. All Through Brush Valley. —Sam.
