What a racket about the 111 lot! .1 ; drove Park Association and its n.riv laws! Well, it owns its lands, pavs its taxes employs native labor, im proves the roads and Ivnellts the towuship generally. Heal sports, met, as a rule are K"Utlemen and will not trespass or poach where they have no rights. The Associa tion deserves protecl ion from the loafers who have no respect for the law. The Statu owns nearly tweu ty-f )tir thousand acres In this coun ty and will acquire sixteen thousand more. It pays no taxes, builds no roids and employs very little labor. Now why should any attempt be made to deprive the Association of its charter and the State bo aided in buying land with the public mon ey? The sick in this vicinity are all improving under the care of l)r. Hughes. All wishing employ mont can read ily secure it on a lumber job. Twice as many as are now engaged could procure work here. Some of our hoys tiro working for Yetter over in Jersey. Our Representative J. H. West brook has been quite ill with rip. S mio people persist in breeding small rabbits when they could with the same etpe;.,e raise 15 lgian har es which weigh from t-wo to four limes as much, and would give them the opportunity to wl lots of boned tnrliey to the city people. At the recent Fanners" Institute lie chief subject was green manure. It was advised to sow crimson clover and cow horn turnips in the corn at Mie last plowing, and then after harvesting there would bo a spleud id stand of clover anil tons of turnips which can ho turned under either in fall or spring as there may be time. This puts the land in excellent con (lion for tbo next crop. A number of people havo built houses to accommodate city board ers, but do not try to learn the btisi ness of keeping them. There is an art in the trade as well as in nil others, and those who do not have the ambition to learn it will not succeed. Many fields on which clover and timothy were sown are bare beeauso the seed did not take. It hardly pays to sow the grasses unless done in just the right way. A stage running between hero and Branch ville would greatly shorten the ride to the city for boarders. There would be considerable ex press and light freight too. The fifth annual report of the Pennsylvania Department of Agri culture is good. Ask J. B. W. for a copy. The ministers of Cincinati, Ohio, aro reproaching the Mayor for al lowing a pri.u fight to be held in February in that city. In some states there aro laws that prize fighters wear gloves, a better way to do it would be to compel them to use brass knuckles. Then they would soou.be either Angels or vic tors and ibe brutal exhibitions would soon ceaso. There is no visiblo effort being made to supply the town with water next summer. Perhaps tho imputa tion is too largo and a weeding out would bo of bducflt. The cemetery and Minor Hall hills ought to bo removed and we are looking for a man with courage to taeklu the job. Another young man in this town lately started for better or worse to keep a freo boarding house where he will entertain, board, clothe, and make happy any little stars that come, pay doc' or bills and incident als and be happy all the while, lie got married. If less dyspeptic, food was prepar ed and eaten tho doctors crude wuuld be 80 per cent sinecure. It is no more trouble, in fact less, to cook properly thau otherwise, but it is a trade to do it well. We might h ive a department in uur public schools to teach the proHT preparation of foods. It is a protty hard matter to really convert a person who is suf faring with a bad caso onndigesttou or torpid liver and such people are not apt to bo pleasant cmipiuy either. C.:sn.

For years the mails have been carried at too low a figure and the cat rier was playing to a losing game all the time. The bids as now p in are not, high en mgh to maiti !.!: good conveyances, etc., and al low the carrier to make anything above a living niul that would not include any Waldorf Astoria fare, I tell you. But, sujipose the Dep't leant to think that, all subsequent bids are too high what will we do, go without mails or what. vme body put iu a bid quick, say H. li for instance, for carrying mini miu'lit pay belter tjian cutting meat. It is proposed to cut a piece off of Stillwater, Hreen and Hampton townships nnd make a new town ship to be named Fred on. This is a movement to iicnent two or three i men, and 1 would be glad to have the promoteis to explain what hen- e!its are to tie gained iu tho matter. A person, familiar with the man ner in which towu business is con. ducted, tells mo thai road over seers handed their ordeisto tho Col lector, who settled with them without being endorsed, with that magic word "Approved" by our Commit tee. What is our committee for, anyway. Sadurday was the worst winter day we have had, for, with the wind blowing a gale, and tho ther mometer standing at 8 degrees nnve zero, there was no place like sitting by the fire. Sunday was about as bad. although it was pleasant in the forenoon. The Uev. E. H. Post on this charge will leave it the last of the month. The Presiding Elder will preach for us next Sunday, and Mr. Post will remain until that time. He has mado many warm fiiends here who aro loath to havo him go. Chas. Van Baren, occupying the Hornbeek farm, near Tuttles Cor ner, will remove to tho place of I-niau Oariss, along the turnpike. Report has it that Jos. Jager has bought the John Bevan farm on the Ridge, As Mr. Jager leaves the Layton farm and is to move on tho above named fertn lends color to the report. Now, that onr ice houses are fill ed there is plenty of that article to had almost any where. Ice was tak en from tho river, just above the bridge 19 inches iu thickness, and if the weather stays anything like it was on Saturday, 2 foot ice may be 3u t.. Tlie owners of ice houses, at Bevans, are waiting for K E. Smith's pond to freeze to a sufficient thick ness for cut ting. Tenants of farms are looking tip their future places of residence and there aro several farms awaiting tenants yet, for the right man. Among them I notice the Vun Ettcn farm, near Tuttles Corner, and the F. Layton farm, at L iyt on, and both are for sale or rent. E icon O. Van Sickle, who lias been attending a school for stammering, at Philadelphia, returue l homo last week almost completely restored. He had an oppoi (unity of seeing the grand sights in and about that city, and thinks the "(pinker City" A No. 1 for beauty. The Mi E. supper at Jas. J.agers on Friday evening was not, largely attended owing to the severity of the cold. iVbout Jit CO was cleared. Wait until another snow C Jines then try it again. ( loerga Drake living in the house of Alfred Ellett, near tho O ip, be came intoxicated and in some way set fire to his clothes and was se verely burucd about too legs and abdomen. He was taken the Alms House. Young America is very much in evidence iu many of our public pla ces and if ho has any manners he leaves them at home. Tho facts will jusiify this reasoning, fori fre quently see them occupying chairs, while older pirsons can stand or find some more congenial place. Parents evidently forget that, their Young Amerii a's are a nuisance iu any public place, especially even ings. They don't, bol l down any chairs in our bar-room, all honor to Mr. Montross for that.

We are glad to report that Mis. A. J. Kimble is pronounced ont of danger and is on the road to recov ery. She has dispensed with the sei vice of her nurse. Henry Clark is said to be improv ing, though stall confined to the house. John Zimmerman is confined with the grip. John Brink was buried from bis home Sunday.

Charles Sehlager, with his j illy crow from Huwley, cut some ice last week. He had contracted to fill several ice bouses for summer campers at Big Pond. Wo hear that William Bluckmore has accepted a pressing invitation from Sheriff Vanderm.ark to become his guest at Milford, at the expense of the county. B. F.
