Of Interest
To Farmers
DON'T MOVE TO TOWN.
For a number of years there has
been a strong movement of population
from tbe country to the town writes an
Iowa farmer in "American Agricult
urirt. Many evils come to the agri
cultural districts because of this prac
tice, while it is doubtful if the town is
permanently benefited or if enough
happiness is found in towu life repay
those who bave long lived in the
country for making the change. Men
move to town and consume the saving
of a lifetime. They sell their farms to
former hired men who bave proved
themselves honest and industrious and
who then become farm owners, but in
cur a debt which requires a lifetime
for its liquidation. This is why so
many farms are mortgaged and the
calamity cry is so difficult to appease.
These new proprietors exhaust their
farmt trying to pay interest, and if af
ter a life of toil and self-denial they
succeeded in lifting their mortgages,
they in turn move to towD, and the
story is repeated.
Permanent homes in the country are
not contemplated. Instead, a cheap
house does duty as a shelter, and it is
often so close to the road that the pas
ser-by may gaze in, &Dd in addition fill
it with dust. Farmers build near the
highway so that they may save every
rod of ground. There is no room for
a forest tree or a lawn that will indi
cate leisure or'taste. Rents are high
because landlords must have money to
live in towns. Country church lan
guish aud finally have to abandoned be
cause t here is uone to support them.
Without any purpose but to escape
the country, the farmer moves to town.
How much better it would have been
for him to remain where tbe experience
of a lifetime would be of greater value
than tbe labor that lias gone before,
aud where he may be a blessing to a
community in numberless ways.
A Rabbit Farm.
Near the village of Farmer, N. Y., ia.,
a rabbit farm that depends on New
York city for a market According to
the Ovid Independent there is an in
closare about 200 feet square, along one
side of which are pens where the rabbits
live and dig their burrows. They seem
to have some social law, as the same
burrow is kept by one family and trans
mitted from parents to children, being
enlarged as the family increases. The
life of a rabbit is from four to five years.
The grown rabbits are allowed the free,
dom of the inclosure, but the young are
kept out of the reach of the Old males,
which sometimes kill them. Theoost of
keeping is slight, as the rabbits snbsist
on grass and water, with oats twice a
week for dessert Besides the common
rabbit, there are on the farm Goman
and Belgian hares.
The Hardy German Carp.
German carp has been introduced
of late Into many of the lakes and
rivers of the west. A queer fish is
the carp. It is said that carp maybe
shipped from New York .to Chicago
with only a wet cloth around them
and bits of broad soaked in whisky
in their mouths and bo none tbe
worse for the joorney. One flay an
attendant at the St. Paul batobery
was passing along near the pond
Where the carp live when one of
them flopped out on the bank. The
attendant took care to cover it with
leaves and long grass, sq that the
sun could not get to it,-and left it
there for 24 hours. Then he pnt the
fish baok into tbe water, and it swam
away as though nothing had hap
pened. The carp has an odd way of
boring down into the mnd when the
weather gets oold, staying there,
deeply imbedded, until the winter
is well over.—Chicago ReoorcL

Why Called Tumblers.
Every day we drink out of a tumbler.
Why la tbe the large g bias that bolds
our milk and water so called? Years
ago Prof. Uax Muller was giving a
luncheon at All Souls college, Oxford,
to tbe Princess Alice, tbe wife of the
grand duke of Hesso-Darmstadt and
the second daughter of Queen Victoria.
There were not a dozen guests beside
tbe princess and her hnsband, and a
very agreeable luncheon we had, with
talk on all kinds of interesting sub
jects.
But what excited the curiosty of all
strangers present was a set of little
round bowls of silver, about the size of
a large orange. They were, brought
round filled to the brim with the fam
ous ale brewed in the college. These,
we are told, were tumblers, and we
were speedily shown how they came by
their names—a fitting lesson for the
guest of a philologist. When one of
these little bowls was * mpty it was
placed upon the table mouth do wn
ward. Instantly, so perfect was its
balance, it fiew back to its proper posi
tion as if asking to be fill ed again. No
matter how it was treated—trundled
along the floors, balanced upon the soft,
thick carpet, up it rolled again and set
tled itself with a few gentle shakings
andswayings into its place, like one of
those India rubber tumbling dolls bab
ies delight in.
This, then, was tue orgin of our
word tumbler, at first made of silver,
as are all these All Souls' tumblers.
Then, when glass became common, the
round glasses that stood on a flat base
superseded tbe exquisitely balanced
silver spheres and stole their names so
successfully that you have to go to All
Souls' to see the real thing.—Jeweller's
Circular.

THE GOLF ABM.

Medical Men Still on the Lookout For
New Diseases.
Medical authorities have decided
that "golf arm" is a disease likely to
come upon a golf player at any mo
ment Whether the experienced
player or the rank amateur is the
most likely to oome under its infln
enoe has not been decided.
The one thing that all agree to is
that the disease is a reality and one
that is not to be lightly considered.
Many a golf player has been attack
ed by the disease without knowing
that it existed, and, though tempora
ry relief may have been had, it is a
question yet to' be determined
whether improper treatment of
what may be thought to be merely
a sprain will not render a player a
ohronio sufferer from tbe new dis
ease.

is
"Golf arm" is an affliction of tbe
mosonlo-spiral nerve, the functions
of which are interfered with under
certain conditions which have been
found to occur more frequently in
the playing of golf than in any oth
er game of physical exertion.
The attention of physicians was
first called to the new disease by the
complaints of professional golf play
ers. These players told of acute pains
along the upper part of the arm.
Similar pains had often been no
ticed, bnt were thought to be the
natural result of nnusnal exercise.
Members of the British Medioal
society first called attention to it,
with the result that a series of ex
periments was begun on the golf
links and oarried on to a considera
ble extent. The arms of scores of
golf players nnder various condi
tions were examined, and the results
of these examinations were careful
ly oompared. The disease is an in
terruption of tbe direct current of
the mnscnlo-spiral nerve, which is
brought under conditions where it
really .works against itself, and in
doing so is urged to greater limits
than nature intended it should, thus
producing pain.
The styles of play most likely to
produce "golf arm " have been found
to be tbe vigorous "pressing and
forcing," which, when employed,
often produce a painful sensation
more qnickly than any other action
in the game.
While American physioians have
not oarried on a plan of investiga
tion and experiment they have
taken an interest in the new disease.
The main idea that has been devel
oped in Amoriea is that "golf arm"
is more liable to attack an experi
enced than an inexperienced player.
.Pains in the arm of tbe beginner at
golf oome, it is believed, merely
from the unusual exorcise. But wbeD
the pains strike the old timer it is
more serious. Just what the remedy
will be for the new disease has not
yet teen determined. The idea seems
to be that the medical authorities
will soon be able to fix on which of
the golf strokes interferes most di
reotly on the spinal nerve and will
suggest the elimination of such hurt
ful strokes from the game.—New
York Journal.
Supreme Court Controlled by Precedente.
American lawyers in . arguing
oases and judges in deciding them
according to the practice nnder the
common law system are controlled
almost entirely by precedents, and
while considerations of justice and
equity are sometimes indulged in
they have legally but little weight
Suoh a system is very unsatisfac
tory, because, each oase being differ
ent from every other, the decisions
in tbe one cannot be made to exact
ly fit the other. Moreover, it entails
a herouiean task upon the lawyers
<and judges, making jt obligatory for
them to search for precedents pot
only in the oonrts of their own coun
try, bnt even in those of England.
With the justices of the supreme
court of the United States this work
ia still more arduous, since they
must examine and be familiar with
not only all cases decided by tbe
varions federal courts, but by all
the oonrts of tbe 45 different com
monwealths whioh form the Union,
eaoh with its own distinot legisla
tion, and with tbe Roman law also,
as tbe state of Eouisjapa h a S Adopt
ed it, entailing besides tbe need'of
keeping a very large library. Doubt
less no public functionaries under
the federal government have more
arduous work imposed upon them
The day ia not long enough to per
mit its oompletion, and I have per
sonally known more tbaq ppq wfcg
have broke# fawn nnder ftaf fa,
mandons strain.—-M. Romero, Mac.

m to Democ r a 11 c
J gossip "Silver
f Dick" Bland, who
f started to accom
-v pany the boy tal
\ ker on hie swing
around tbe East
ern circle, was so unmercifully smib
bed by Bryan that he refused to remain
with theiparty under any circumstances,
altough in' leaving it, he sacrificed a
remunerative contract to swap almigh
ty bad English accounts of the tour
for numerous one-hnndred.ceut dol
lars from tbe strong box of a newspaper
publisher. The exact cause of the
snubbing is not given, but the founda
tion appears to have been Bryan's be
lief that "Silver Dick'' didn't know
enough to make real-platform speeches.
I will not vouch for the suubbing part,
but it is certain that "Silver Dick"
left tbe Byran party ten days or more
ago and that be has since then been
staying with a friend iu the suburbs of
Washington. This, coupled with tbe
rough shod manner in which Bryan
has walked over every Democrat who
has opposed his slightest whim since
the Chicago convention, gives the
snubbing story an air of probabilty.
P
1)
The confidences with which the pro
minent silver Democrats started in to
rush Bryan into the WhiteHouse has all
disappeared, and they are now so timid
that they are allowing themselves to
be bossed by the radical populists of
the Tom Watson stripe, and they are
running hither and thither, seeking
some evidence that Bryan has even a
fighting chance to win. Chairman
Faulkner, of the Congressional com
mittee, went to Chicago last week to
see whether Chairman Jones, of tbe
National Committee, was able to cheer
him up, and since his return he ha
found it harder than ever to keep up a
bold front.

Secretary Mercer, of the Republican
Congressional Committee, thinks the
vote cast in November will be pheno
menally large. Speaking on the sub
ject he said: "There never was such
wide spread interest in a campaign. I
know that in my own district in Ne
braska, the votes polled at the primar
ies reached almost the total of a gen
eral election. Men who were sick
braved relapse, in order to get to tLe
polls, and I know of one instance
where a man was rolled to bis voting
place in an invalid's chair. With such
interest in a primary, what will be the
vote when election day comes around?"

Nobody in Washington took pitch
fork Tillman's absurd challenge of ex
President Harrison for a joint debate
seriously, ah y more than Mr. Harrison
did. It was merely and effort of Till
man to keep himself before tbe public.
When joint debates occur, they are
usually between men of tbe same
standing. Nothing but amusement
was caused by Tillman's mistaking tbe
curiosity w hich brought out big crowds
to hear him speak in the mining section
of Pennsylvania, for enthusiasm for free
silver. Pennsylvania Republicans are
u Danimously of the opinion that the size
of the majority for McKinley will break
ht record, and some of them express
the opinion that tbe Indianapolis ticket
will poll more votes in the state than
Bryan will.
According to Hon. It. C. Kerens,
who knows a thing or two about Mis
souri politics, that state is going Ke
publican to a dead certainty. M. Ker
ens - "Dick" is what everybody aroued

made a flying trip to Washington to con
sult with Chairman Babcock, of the
Congression al committee, and while in
tbe city he said: "The Republican
party is uoiled and determined to win.
The Democrats are hopelessly split and
with three parties in the field ve are
going to succeed and we ought to suc

While the Democrats have been mak

The result is now becoming apparent
even to the most rabid Bryan ite. Re

show that the silver wave which fol

tini'e to go as they are now going, well
