Poultry At The World's Fair.
Ax item of interest to the farm

era find poultry raisers of tbe
, (country in connection with the
AVxrldii Fair'at St Louis, is learned
from the Eastern Press Bureau, of
Washington, D. C. The regular
cash prizes offered for exhibits o;
poultry, pigeons and pet stock ag
gregate more than $16,000 and this
vill be. .greatly increased by ap
x pronations from stale,: comrais
, eions.for state exhibits. "The Mis
souri: Commission has set apart
:7,000 for special tprizes and ex
penses connected with that state's
- ' poultry t elhibits. ; The special
poultry clubs of this and other
countries are making a very success
'ful catrras for fundi for special
promises to provide a prize fund of
nt, least $300 for its favorite variety.
MivT, EL Orr, secretary and treas

sociation, has been made the super
intendent of the poultry show and

Opinion Of A; Trust Lawyer.
. Ax opinion from one of the great
est trust lawyers in the city of New
York is worth something, inasmuch
as some of the trusts pay him a
liberal , fortune to" render them.
His name is TJntermeyer, and he
says that there never will be any
effective anti-trust work done in 4
this couutry until the criminal
clause, of , the Sherman - auli-trust
law is put in force and some of the
criminals are sent) to the peniten
tiary and made to wear stripes.
And there is the whole gist of the
matter in a nut shell.
What ' iu - the name of common
sense do the trusts of the country
care for a fine of $5,000 a day so
long as they can put up prices and
compel the people of the; country
to pay the fine iu less than two
d a It' is the plainest idiocy to
try to curb or kill trusts in any
such manner. '
to m:ike the oouH yard presentable
and give it the appearance to visit
ors of bring, the" 'property of , a
progressive county and not cause
them to go away with the impres
sion that' there hasn't been a term
of court held in it since the Civil
war.
, The appearance of the court
house grounds and the town could
be aided materially by making
cement or stone walls from each
street entrance to jthe building
and sowing the other part of the
yard in grass, repairing the fence,
and putting a little paiut on. the
front part of the court house.
The court house and grounds are
the property of the - county, used
by the county and in our opinion
ought to be kept up by the county
Nevertheless,-we are sure that the
Towu Commissioners of. Columbus
would gladly aid iu this work. '.;

Just for the-bake of the young
manhood of this country, upon
which depends the future of our
laud, we say again : Buy land !
No citizen can be as good a citizen
as he should be yut does not bear
some of the burden of ownership.
No man is so thoroughly saturated
with the desire to see his country
go onward aud upward as he should
prizes for exhibits. . One clubJ be uutil he becomes a property
holder. So buy land, young man,
buy land ! Gaffuey Ledger; J
"Dm you ever notice that it is the
broadgange fellow that rises to the
top? , The littlo, narrow minded,
mercenary fellow may succeed in
becoming wealthy by griuding the
weak and taking advantage of
every loop-hole that the law al
lows, but he'll never become great
in mind or body and his soul will
be unfit for heaven, lie broud, be
generous. Do1 not make aiool of
yourself by trying to overdo
matters, but educate Yourself to be
liberal In matters material and
matters mental. Gaffuey Ledger.
