He A Comparison of Chicago prices of beeves of different grades for six years past shows a consent decline from 1876 to 1879 amounting to 20 per cent. for choice beeves during this period. Then commeaced a rise which in three years exceeded 40 per cant, the advance mov- ing slowel,y hi 1879 and 1880, but much more rapidly during 1881, the increase beingfully $1 per hrmdred of live weight during the year. But since the lst of July the advance has been unpreceden- ted, the range being from $5.85 to 06.35 in January, 1882, and from $8.65 to $8.90 in June, or naore than 45 per cent. advance upon the prices of six inoliths ago. In butchers' stock, the range has been from $2.75 to $4.25 in January, and. from $3.50 to $6 in June, the latter being a reduction on May prises. The cause of this great advance, which has occasioned some surprise among pro - deicers and great consternation among customers, has been often asked of late. There are several. The exportation of extra beeves, which commenced in 1877 and increased year by year, both as live anddeadmeat, is an element, but does not account for the spasmodic jumps in the• rate of recent months. Another cause of equal or superior strength is -the great destruction of cattle on the plains, in the park and valleys of the Rooky mountains in the winter of 1880 and 1881, by cold and starvation, amid the drifts and severities of the unusual season. While this tended to stiffened prices iri 1881,it is not continually oper- ative, as the past winter was very fav- orable and the numbers are now increas- ing rather than diminishing. The third cause, acting in conjunction with the two preceding, with a cumulative effect, is the failure of the last corn crop, the high price of feeding material altogether producing an excitement in the market that partakes of the nature of panie, suoh as exists in all markets to -day and. threatens anpther era of loss of confidence, hoarding and stagnation. There are assumed causes assigned. by uninformed writers which are baseless or without appreciable weight, such, as the recent drowing of cattle in the Mies- issippi. It is true there waS some local loss in numbers but not in the prospec- tive beef supply of the great markets, or appreciable in the home supply, as beef la scarcely a product ot cotton plantation. What of the future prices? It is olea.r that a season of abundant crops, and especially a good corn crop, would cause an immediate decline. If another short crop is gatheredprices will continue to be high. Already theeffeot is seen in reduced consumption tending to an increase of supely and reduction of rates. While prices can not continueto increase and can not be permaanently maintained under fall harvests, it is probable that the low rates of a few years ago will soon prevail, if ever. The general tendency throughout the -world is toward a high rate of meat compared with grain and other annual products. looked meeker than Moses' and says he: "Not" ---but he never'llfinish the sentence --for just heraeme of the twins fell into the cistern, and the other 17, came in with their hats full of buckle - berries, toads and bird' 4 eggs, and their aprons full of wintergreen; wild flowers, aud mote green apples 1 We tied four' or five of the other 17 together, and let' ern down into the cistern to fish for the twin. 'Twas a snccess. And thus en- deth this lovely harvest Sabbath day. - "Man shall not live by bread alone." But it strikes me that about these days "bread alone" is the rural diet by tez loci.

This is What we do in. these long; hot harvest days : At the filet hint of morning's red glow in the east, all feet aie stepping, all hands at work. Ere -old Sol has dropped his drowsiness from his eyelids breakfast is served, the men and the teams are afield, and all the airis aquiv- er with the reaper's rude rattle; while the women take up in dead earnest their daily round of a, thousand and one things that must be done. There is luncheon at 9 A.M.'and it must all be deinty and good. There is dinner at 12 A. M. ' This must be daintier and mxeler. There is supper alb 5 P. M. This must be daintiest and goodest. There is luncheon again at 8 or 9 or 10 P. M., as the case, according to time of "quitting work," natty be. • This, happily, is inade up of "what is left," supple- mented with bread and milk for those who like it. Then all lights out, all hands and feet, heads' and spines to bed. The next day the same, and the next and the next, ad extremunz of the gathering of the wheat and oats; tmless the foun- tains of the upper deep break loose, giv- ing us gracious rain and a grateful rest, which they so far have failed to do this year ; or—but Pll not mention the accid- ents and all those terrible things that more perfect machinery, and more care - 1 al and skillful handling of the same are reducing to their minimum in this sec- tion of the interior. Well, and so it gees on from Monday morning till Sunday morning. This was Sunday morning. I was too thin-- - onghly tiredtte say, "I want to go to church." . And whim Hi said, 'My t hands are Fie tired, handling those bun- dles 1 I shall rest, to -day," I knew there was no going to church in his day's pro- gramme ; rand when Bob said, "This chap lays in the shade todlay," I ridi- culed his "grammar," and remarked how clean he looked in his fresh "blue - check " and "denims ;" and I knew that church going was not in his head or heart. But Chen the twins began to show symptoms of cholera infantum. —and the other 17 to yell, "Where's my shirt ?" t Where's my "—my every- thing, anything, and nothing, I just sat eight down, and says I : "Find 'em! I've got the headache Hi, send some one after the doctor for the twins, and then put a picket fence forty cubits high around that harveet apple tree." "Ticket fence? Thunder! I shan't do it !" says ha. Then he picked up one of the twins, 43xamilieet her teeth and toe -nails, and sayshe : "Doctor? They don't need a doctor! Give em some—some—lia'n't ye got somethinr ye can give 'em ?" "Speaking's good," said Bob. Then Hi took pillows and deposited them and his mighty carcass on the parlor carpet for a season of undistur- _ bable repose. Bob took the lag Farmer, dropped into a well cushioned easy chair, and was ROM sound asleep. And thus the day has worn away un- til the sun sinks swiftly down the wes- tern slope of a cloudless horizon. Soon he soft enchanting light of the full bar - vest moou will shed its lustre upon the heavens above and the earth beneath. About an hour ago - I proposed a drive, and Hi proceeded to tell me all about Coney Island, a description of -which, he had just read in Harper's, and. totally ignored my proposition. I re- peated it quite pointedly to Bob. He The New york board of health has prepar d the 'following suggestions on of young children during the eather, which, if followed care - 'll tend in no small 'degree the c Mina fully, to the comfort of mothers and the de- crease of the panel high rate of infant mortality. . • . 1. An infant should not be weaned between May 1 and Oct. 1, if it can be avoided. 2. All children under two yeara old should be kept in the pure, cool air as much as possible. 3. The great mortality among infants is mainly due to diarrahceal diseases, caused by errors -in diet, heat and im- pure air. Beware of overfeeding; it is not necessary to feed an infant te quench thirst ; a little pure cool water or barley water is often better for the.child than milk. 4. Do not use any patent infant foods except when prescribed by a physician. Do not use any compli- cated nursing 'bottles having tubes and joints unless extra precautions are taken as to cleanliness. A common twelve ounce bottle with a nipple of black rubber is satisfactory. As soon as used the bottle and nipple should be thoroughly rinsed, and then kept en- tirely under water till again want- ed. They should never be allowed to get dry. 5. The food for infants recommended by the New York Board of health is the best and cheapest. It is prepared as follows: Boil a teaspoonful of powdered bar- ley (ground in coffee grinder) and half a pint of water, with a little salt for 15 minutes; strain and inix with it half as much boiled milk, add a lump of white sugar size of a walnut, and give it lukewarme For infants five or six months old, give half barley water and half boiledmilk. For infants very cos- tive, use oatmeal instead of barley, cooking and straining as above. 6. Give well children an all-over wash or bath with cool water twice a day. Give them as much fresh air as possible and keep them cool, but be careful that in a midden fall of tempera- ture they de not get chilled. Light flannel clothing next the skin is better than cotton. 7. Bewtge of bad smells aborit the house, but remember that it is not the smell itself that is dangerous, but What it is the sign of, and there try to dis- cover and remove the cause of the smell, whether it beta leaky soil pipe, a foul sink .or garbege box, a filthy cellar or gutter, or yard or what not. I 8. If a child has diarrhcea, consult a physician atonce, and do not waste time with deniestio remedies. 9. Let those, who have no children to care for, try to help the thousands who have, but who are too poor to give them a chance for life, by taking them where they can ha,ve a few hours enjoyment of pure fresh air. was presented with a well filled purse, a superb set of Breviaries, and several other beautiful and costly articles as memento's of the occasion. —One day last week Mr. Robert Pardon; of Hibbert, had Samuel Spears: up before the Mayor of Mitchell, under the master and servants sot for leaving his employ in contravention of said act. The defendant was engaged to plaintiff for 4 months' work at $18 per menth with board, but being offered greater wages by another party, he left and entered into a second engagement while the first one was :unfulfilled. Speen was fined $5 with costs, besides losing some time that he had worked. —A trial shipment ef cattle from Chicago to New York in the new Mont- gomery palace stook cars, passed through Stratford a few days ago. The car was fitted with passenger couplings, and. inside boxed off into stalls for three or four beats—the sides being padded with rubber, so that they are not injured should they be jolted against them. Sufficient space is afferded for the cattle to lie down and refit, and food and water are supplied for con- sumption in transit. The oar contains -- from 18 to 20 bead, about the same as ordieary cattle oars. In trials that have already been made with the Mont- gomery oars, the cattle have been de- livered at their destination. :in much better condition, and the shrinkage in weight is not half so great as when transported in the usual way. The ar- rangements for !loading and unloading . are greatly improved, and the animals are saved to a great extent from the abuse of inhuman drovers. The train was inspected by quite a number of per- sons interested in the cattle business and others while in Stratford, and the opinion was generally expressed that the use of the new cars ought to become general.

The land has therefore been resolved into its original elements of 100 to 300 acre farms, with the excep- tion -that 20,000 aures of it ie ander one control as a seed farm. The probabi- lity is that the 20,000 acres 'which have cut up will yield comfortable homes and a competence to 100 farmere, where it was netting a boas to a siegle owner.
