to journey from one side of the sun to

Olney Writes Checks for Foreigners.
The United States government per
formed an act of justice Saturday un
der its treaty provisions, in paying
some indemnities for injuries done to
subjects of foreign nations by Ameri

Baron Fava, the Italian ambassador,
a check for '$10,000, to be tnrned over
to the families of four Italians who
were killed by a mob at Walsenberg,
Col., last fall, and Sir Julian Paunce
fote, tho British ambassador, was given
a check for $1,800 for the relief of the
Dawson family, British subjects, who
were badly handled in Nebraska, and
$1,000 for one Bain, the purser of an
English ship, who was shot n the leg
during the levee riots in Now Orleans

North Atlantic Squadron.
The cavy department has informed
Bear Admiral Bunce, commanding the
North Atlantic stations tbat it pro
poses, if practicable, not to interfere
in any manner with the movements
and exercises of his squadron during
tho presont session. With this view
Secretary Herbert has been obliged ta
decline the numerous requests he has
received for ships to visit certain!
places and take part in local oelebra
tions and festivities. The fleet will
cruise at sea between Nantucket and
the capes of the Chesapeake.
The battleship Massachusetts and
tho monitor Terror will join the first'

Texas will soon follow. This will be
tho largest fleet ever assembled by the
navy department in fleet tactics." and
it is expected that tho experience that
will be gained will be of much benefit
to the service.
Imports and Exports
A statement has been issued by the
treasury department giving tho lm
ports and exports for the past eleven
month. According to this statement
we have exported during tho eleven
months $815,971,704 of merchandise,
and imported $723,200,747. Thus the
excess of txportsover imports has been
$92,711,017.
While this is the case we have chip
ped out in the same timn $105,391,070
of gold coin," and only $30,888,524 has
been shipped to us. Thus iu the past
eleven months we have lost $74,505,
546 of gold coin. '
Of silver wo have shipped out $55,
515,178, and but $11,929,060 to which
makes us short $43,585,518 on silver.
In the gold which has b en shipped
in is included that brcuzht from
abroad by'the Morgan syndicate to pa'
for bonds. As only $30,888,524 a
told has been brought in for eleven
months pa6t, it would seem that - tho
Morgan syndicate did not get all the
gold from abroad, as they promised.

past week by the weather burl
follows:
The weather during' the seven
endiinc June 15th, was not ftltog
so faivorable as could have been H&
sired. The nights' in the northern and
central counties were a little too cool
for Cotton, and as a result, there is a
very general complaint of grass and
weeds, though the great majority of
fields are clean and in a good state ot
cultivation. Cotton is blooming in all
seotions of the state and squares and
small bolls are numerous in the south
ern portion. Except in a few localities
where damoged by the late . drought,
corn is in excellent condition and is
very promising throughout the state.
Wheat aad oats have oeeu narvestea,
the forjjer giving a fair yield and the
latter turning: out very short. Minor
crops, pastures and gardens, are gen
erally in a flourishing condition, .rati
ons are a fair crop and beginning to
appear in the markot.
North Section. The past weefe has
been remarkably cool for the time of
m t .
year, but one oi almost continuous
sunshine, except in a few localities
where good rains have fallen. Vegeta
tion of all kinds are crowing vigor
ously, and wheat thrbsh'n j. is in prog
ress and yielding fairly well. Corn is
being la:d by in good condit"m and
much earlier than usual ; so mo i it is
tasseling. Cotton is not growing so
well, on account of unseasonable tem
perature, and there is somo complaint
of lice, but it is clean, and with the
promise of warmer weather, will soon
revive a steady growtn and destroy
the lice which are now preying on the
plant. Gardens are doing well and
berries are plentiful. Oats aro almost
a failure, except in b)ttom lands.. Ap
ples and peaches will be short on ac
couut of prematurely falling off, but it
is thought . the crop, however short,
will be of tho best quality.
Central Section In this section of
the state 'tho weather has been very
favorable, and everything ia in good
condition. The planters havo been
busy laying by com aud cleaning oot
ton of grass. The nights have been
little too cool for cotton and thero
is considerable complaint of lice. Cot-
ton is not looking as well as last week
on account of having too muca rain
and lice ; grass has alee done slight
damage to the crops where it has not
been properly worked out; manv fields
are in bloom. Potatoes and peas arc
being planted extensively. Corn is
shooting and tasseling and indications
point to a good yield. Wheat, oats
ahd rye are being threshed. The oat
crop is below an average. The straw
ishort, but tho beads aro fair. Vege
tables since the rain, are vigorous.
Cane is also looking fine since tho
showers. Melons are doing moderate
ly well. Grapes need some more rain
to ript n. It is thought they will make
a goodcrop.
ooxJTnEBN section. Wood saowers
have put crops in fine growing condi
tion, except ootton, which has sugared
greauy from cool nights and lice,
which are doing considerable damage
to the plant in some localities. Corn
has been plowod - the last time and
looks well; it is tasseling and shooting.
The oat crop is short. Melons and
peaches are plentiful in local markets
and considerable quantities have been
shipped. The melon crop will be
shorter than usual, however, on ac
count of reduction in acreage. Berries
of all kinds are plentiful. Great quan
tiiiea of sweet potatoes are being
set out, but Irish potatoes are very
poor, vegetables oi an Kinas aro gooa
except cabbage and turnips, which
are rather backward and infected with
bugs.
McKISLEYS H031E FOR SILVER.
Eighteen Counties So Instruct Their
Delegates.
Democratic conventions were held in
eighteen Ohio counties Saturday and
tho returns show without an exception
they all declared for free silver.
Delegates to tho democrat jo state
convention were elected in each coun
ty and all were instructed to vote for
a free silver platform and to support
for delegates to the democratic nation
al convention only those who are for
free silver. ' '
At Canton, Stark county, McHin
ley's home, primaries were held, .at
which over 1,000 votes were cast and
a solid siiVer delegation chosen. Nearly
all of the 672 delegates to. the state
convention have been chosen and the
results show that Ohio democrats are
in the vast majority for free silver.
Less than 100 gold men will be inthe
convention.

TO TREAT A CRACKED HOOF.
A crack extending from tho top of
the hoof of a horse down the side
Bhould be treated in this way. A V
shaped cut should be made from tho
top of the hoof at the coronet down to
the horn, about one inch, meeting at
the crack. ' If possible a' wire should
be passed through the edges of the
crack and drawn tight, so as to close
the opening as much as possible. The
horn above the V-shaped mark Bhould
be rasped thin and a. bandage kept
over it always wet wijh water. As the
crack goes down the new horn above
will be closed, and in time the new
growth will reach to the bottom, leav-r
ing a solid hoof. It is exceedingly
injurious to the hoof to apply tar to
it, as is often done. Tho tar contains
an acid, which damages the horn,
while it hardens the hoof and prevents
the absorption of water, which the
horn needs to preserve-its elasticity
and tenacity. New York Times. .
HOME MADE EARTH BORATES.
Iron shovels or scrapers for remov
ing earth are somewhat expensive. A
good substitute can be made at homo,
after the plan shown in the accom
panying illustration. It should bo of
hard wood, and the edge in front should
be covered with sheet iron, after which
an old piece of crosscut saw may be
fastened beneath the edge and turned
up at the sides, as shown in the sketch,
The iron straps to which the chain is
attached should go around the back as
well as the. sides of tho scraper, to
give strength. Such an implement is
exceedingly handy on the farm for
leveling off ridges andiilling depres
sions, and for scraping up into heaps
the manure that becomes scattered
over the barnyard. American Agri
culturist. .
FEEDIXd CATTLE.
It was eaid maay. centuries ago that
the feeding of cattle was the most lm
portant part of agriculture. Thft is
as true to-day as it was in' that ancient
time. And the-question might well
be asked by every farmer of himself,
Has this important work of the farm
been improved to the same; extent as
other work has been, or has not this
been far too much neglected? It is
true beyond question . that to a very
great extent our cattle to-day are fed
much the same way as animals were
centuries ago that is, by grazing
The average amount qf land needed
now to support one cow is five acres
for the summer feeding, alone, when
it is quite an easy matter to feed -one
on less than one acre.- Indeed, it is
very sure that one cow may now be
supported as well as is consistent with
the advanced condition 01 agriculture,
nd that is in the very best- and most
productive manner, tat a whole year
on the produce of a single acre of
land. , '
Thousands of farmers are doing this
by the aid of soiling summer crops and
the silo for winter feeding. These
farmers are not complaining of hard
times. They are producing from their
land five times as mucaras ever before,
at a cost of not more than twice ' the
former expense. Tho 'profits of their
enterprise are therefore amply satis
factory. Others must -do -the fame
fertilize the soil ; double Che yield ;
lessen the expenses; and thus actually
add to the profit, eveiTin these times
of low values.

THE FUTURE OF THE HORSE. .
There is 0 class of writers that are
determined -to attend the funeral of
the horso interests whether or not.
The horse with them is to become ab-
solete in consequence of the bicycle,
electricity, etc. This sort of argument
ooks well and may appear conclusive
on paper, uut uicycies or electricity
will not draw the plow or do the farm
work that horses are now used for do-
T 3 H .
ing. JNor win tney ao tne practical
work for whch horses are used in the
cities and towns. Every farm will al
ways have its horses. The streets of
every city will always be crowded with
horses. On what lines have the bicy
cles and electricity taken the places of
horses? On Btreet cars and for drawing
purposes. That this makes a consider
able hole in the demand we admit, but
so far as the street oars are concerned,
they never made a demand for a class
of horses that were purposely bred for
the purpose. The street car horses
were usually good horses, but they
were scrub horses. As" to the bicycle
taking the place of the driving horse,
this sort of demand was never as de
pendable as that for the work horse
was. There is room in this country
to-day for 10,000,000 first-class horses,
and the demand will make itself felt
more and more when times become
... mi
better, until it is supplied, xnere are
2,000,000 farms on which there should
be better horses and on which the far
mers will eventually see that a good
team means money in their pockets.
There is a "slew" of good-for-nothing
horees in the cities aud towns,too,anl
replacing them with better horses,
would mean that tho-worir. 01 teams
would be more. qnioSly, more easily
and consequently more-, profitably
done, and some time, in the natural
progress of thjngs, they will be re
placed. It is nonsense to talk about
the bicycle or electricity maKing tne
horse useless. They can do nothing
of the kind. The Silver Knight.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Bee keeping is a poor man's busi
ness. and the poorer he is the less ex
cuse he can find for not having plenty
of honey for himself and family to eat,
Bees are no respecters 01 persons ;
they will work as well for a peasant as
for a prince.
Ducks lay profusely in tho spring
when well fed, often produoing forty
or fifty eggs and sometimes a greater
number, if kept from setting. They
are much larger than those of the ben,
and equally rich and nourishing, but
less delicate.
There is no other industry on the
farm that can compete with the dairy
now unles3 it be in some of the corn
belts, where a large, quantity, of coin
is raised and fed to hogs, and even in
Buch localities that dread disease has
discouraged hog raisers to an alarming
degree.
- It has often been said that tho dairy
business was the last to feel the in
flucnce of depressions in business,
and the first to respond to its revival.
Just why this may have been the case
is quite hard to explain, but we are
well aware that it has been the case
in the past.
Great strides are being made toward
educating the owners of cows in the
theory and practice of correct feeding,
aa well as in the skill and science of
breeding, the results of which are con
tinnallv manifested in the class of but
ter breeds of cattle offered for salo by
practical diarymen,
It is notably tho case with dairymen
to complain that cows are not paying
simply because they are not ; giving
over the same large profits they had
done in previous vears. While this
is no criterion of tho real basis of
prosperity, it is no doubt a feature of
very crreai disappointment to hun
dreds of dairymen with large capital
invested in that business.
Guinea fowls are quite useful where
there are many enemies to poultry,
Buch as hawks, snakes, and rats, for
they are ever on the alert to detect
danger and give tho alarm quickly,
and in- such shrill and . constant tones
that the enemy generally leaves befo
the owner comes upon the scep
his gun. The flesh' is reus
