THE LAST TWO.
The End of a Deady Feud in the
Smoky Mountains.
No Mercy Had Been Shown to
Young Man or Old.
It was within half an horn* of sun¬
down, writes M. Quail in tho New
York World, when I came to a cabin
in a bit of cove high tip in the Smoky
Mountains, pretty close to the North
Carolina line. An old. gray-headed
woman stood in front of the cabin,
looking up and down the road.
“Cribbins to ye, stranger,” she
saluted, as I cui.ie up. “Tho-io ye re
roads dun make a-folks powerful
wearv some times.
“Cribbins” is the term used by
mountaineer., for “welcome," and no
matter what the poverty may be their
hospitality lias no limit,
“I can’t duu foresee what (he ole
nian bw met up with,” she said, as 1
b’ot rid of my knapsack and sat down
on a log near her.
“Gone to town?” I asked,
“Shore, but if#"past tiino war’ back,
Xcvcr did see how worried I’ve bin
this day.”
We were talking away when we
suddenly caught sight of a mule down
jj lG road . The animal was walking
and it looked as if the man on her hack
was partly lying down. Hie went
away at a run and I followed, and two
niinutes later site was wringing her
bauds and crying. The burden borne j I
by the mule was a man over sixly !
years old, his hair snow-white and his i
face full of wrinkles, and he was Iv- j
ing forward with hi, arms clasped :
around the animal's neck. There was j j
blood the saddle-flaps, the old I
on on
j >
man's garments, a trail of blood run- I
ning back along the rocky road. The j
old man held on to a rifle and he had ! ;
not lost consciousness. ! ,
“I—I wiped him!” he whispered, as I
I held hint up in the saddle. “He’s— i
he’s Ivin’ down that-!”
I didn’t know what lie meant and
didn > t „- ait f , n - explanations. We got
him to the cabin and upon a bed as
soon as possible, and when we had
gtripped off his clothing We 6aw a btil-
lct . hole in ti de. 1 Ho had lost a
great deal of blood and fainted away ;
as we carried hitn in. As tho wife
washed the wound I poured whiskey
down the old man’s throat, and after i
awhile he revived. He looked at me
for a moment and then queried of his
wife:
.
\\ ho i h.iii, Jen. ,
“Hint's a stranger who', .topped to j
crib.” she explained. “Oh! daddy, ;
how did it all come about?”
“He rid out on me. and we both
tired to once. Him’, whipped out!
Him . lying Slone dead Up at tllC big
turn *
“Will he die, stranger.'” .he asked
of tnc.
She knew he must, and he realized
it alto. We made hitn as comfortable |
as we could, checked the flow of blood
to tome extent, and as he sank into a
sort of stupor I asked:
••Who shot him, and who has he
wiped out?”
“The old man, Buck," she replied.
“AVc’rc bin fessiu’ with the Bucks
ever since tho wall. Fust, my son
Dan, him shot a Buck. Then a Buck
shot him. Then Bill went—then Tom
—then Pete, but fur every one of them
a Buck had to go, too. They had ono
the most. I shot him myself, right
down lliar wbar the branch crosses
the road.”
“It was a family feud, then!”
“1 reckon you might call it so.”
“And at last only your old husband
was left of your family?”
“Onlv him, and Buck he was old
and feeble, loo."
“And these two old men mot today
and continued the quarrel?”
Before she had time to reply the old
man sat up in bed, looked around with
wild eyes and hoarsely shouted:
“He rid out at me, Jen, and we both
tired, and him is a-lyin'—”
He fe 1 hack, gasped once or twice
and was dead. As the poor old wife
rocked and moaned and uttered brief
prayers, I saw the ghastly pallor creep
over his fuco and set its seal on every
line. And though I could not see it
through the distance and the darkness,
I knew that at tllO Big Turn, half II
mile below, the corpse of another old
man lay on its back, with eyes wido
open and staring at the bright stars
set in the canopy of heaven.
It was the last of a feud which had
(known no mercy for young man or
old.
Care of the Hands.
A good remedy for damp hands is
four ounces of coiogno to half an
ounce of tincture of belladonua, the
hands to be rubbed in this several
times a day.
For chapped hands take one and a
half ounces of spermaceti tallow i
’ r !
four lablcspoonfuls of oil of white
almonds and three-quarters of i
an
ounce of camphor gum. Heat until I
dissolved, stirring constantly, then |
pour inlo molds. ,

REI.ATIYE EFFICACY OF IIAIiliOWS.
In a series or experiments in draft
with different implements, reported
by the Utah experiment station, it was
found that the relative efficacy of bar-
rows varies with the soil. Kou id and
square toothed harrows act as wedges
ulld do not looicn the soil as do othcr
fonn , o£ hirrow . tccth . TUov do not
, cuetrate deeptv and moving near the
inr£ace are colnparilt j VP i v <. asv in ab .
, olute draft> but r( . lativc draft ^
pound of earth moved not so easy for
hard soils as some other form of liar-
row. They line the soil about the
average of other harrows. They may
be regarded as adapted only to loose
soils and for putting in seeds around
which the soil should be compressed.
Harrows with teeth having a for¬
ward slant also act as wedges in u
large measure and leave a soil that
weighs heavily, being compact. Those
harrows also have a medium draft per
pound of soil moved, penetrate to a
medium depth and tine the soil about
the average. They leave an uneven
bottom.
Harrows that lift the soil by a roll¬
ing action, thus avoiding some of tho
friction of the other harrows, pene¬
trate the deepest, loosen the soil the
best and move the most soil per pound
of draft. They give a soil of average
fineness. When the rolling cutter is a
complete or unbroken circle the soil
is loosened in furrows, and when it is
removed it is found to have a eomi-
guted bottom. When the rolling cut¬
ter is a broken circle, known as a cut¬
away harrow, it leaves the bottom soil
in average order and has the easiest
draft, and is believed by the director
to be the best form of harrow for sur¬
face tillage now iu use for the average
clay loam soil.— [New York World.
W ARM AND VENTILATE THE STABLES.
Now that the hurry of harvest is
over with many they aro beginning to
cast about to see what can be done in
the way of making improvements in
the stabling facilities of the farm.
The first thing many do is to plan to
make a tight stable so as to have ii
warm and comfortable (?). as though
warmth was the only requisite for
comfort. Warmth is a good thing,
but for tho health of the cows and the
purity of the milk there must be pure
nil', and to obtain this in a stable tilled
with cows we must have ventilation,
and ventilation without a draft upon
the animals. To obtain these desirable
results, Bell's. Messenger says: “We
must take advantage of the currents
to supply pure air. The trouble is,
wc oppose them altogether. We put
a roof tight upon the enclosure, and
the only entrance for pure nil
or exits for foul air nre
cracks about doors, window's
or sides of building. As heated air
will ascend, it collects under the roof
and fiually reaches the nostrils of the
animals; at the same time outside air
will force i: s way through the open¬
ings, and, tin* currents being level
with the animal, chills them.
“if tho sides of the enclosure are
light, except numerous openings under
the eaves, aud if openings are made
in the roof the shelter will be warmer
anil well ventilated. The foui air cau
get out juet under the roof or through
it, and pure air enters and .lowly
sink*. Let caves and cup: las prevent
entrance of storms. Half tho stock
sholter. seen have no provision for
ventilation. Air in them is continu¬
ally contaminated by the lung., akin
and excrement of the animals. This
foulness causes disease.”
J'KMKDT fOH THE r.Al'ES.
The authorities say that the best
remedy is prevention, hut iu a wet
season,protests Mr- K. It. Taylor, this
is d.flicult of application except by tho
few scientific poultry raisers. When
prevention lias failed, the thing to do
is to take a long horse hair and bend
it,twisting the loop so it can be probed
into the chicken’s throat with a spiraj
motion. Catch the chicken with tho
left hand, press its wings to its sides,
hold its head back, open the bill, puil
out the tongue until a conrso twine
can be hooked over the raised portions
at the base of the tongue and held be¬
neath tlie bill firmly, while tho horse
hair loop is worked into tlie windpipe
gently to the depth of two or two and
a half inches of the loop. Willi a
spiral motion twist it out, and repeat
until you bring several bunches of
small, bright red worms. After all
have been extracted, the chick will
perhaps froth a little but in ten
minutes it will eat its food. If in
twelve or twenty-four hours it still
throws back its head aud gapes repeat
the operation. Old hands says blue
grass is better than horse hair, but tiie
latter is always available. This is the
preventive of sure death.— [Farm.

I AU.M AM) tiAKDES NOTES.
Prepare to grow, as far as possible,
all your grain feed on your own farm.
Keep tho suckers on the fruit trees
rubbed off while they are green and
60ft.
Keep the heads of your fruit trees
open so as to let iu the air and sun¬
shine.
The soil is the source of sustenance,
and science the foundation of all pro¬
gress.
Prime when the tree is dormant, if
you want to impart vigor to its
growth.
An honorable way of securing a
profit is by reducing the cost of pro¬
duction.
If the soil is dry, plant deep; if it
contains plenty of moisture, plant
shallow.
Cracked corn is good food for
fowls, but should not be made an ex¬
clusive one.
You can’t be a successful fancier
until you have become well versed in
poultry culture.
You can’t become a practical farmer
by books alone; you must combine
them witli experience.
All fruits and vegetables should be
preserved or put up iu glass vessels.
Tin is apt to rust or corrode.
A pint of linseod oil meal given to
a dozen hens every other day during
the moulting season will be beneficial,
but too much will make them too fat
at this season.
Always have salt where hogs can
get it, but it should be placed in pans
or troughs, not on the ground in the
barnyard, as it will absorb the poison
from the soil.
Blanketing a horse in tiie stable
makes his co il short ami sleek. This
makes him look more valuable, and it
is easier to keep him clean, than a
long-haired horse.
It is generally best to purr base what¬
ever breeding stock is needed in the
lalfor part of summer or early fall;
lower prices, as well as a bettor qual¬
ity of fowls may be secured.
Hubbard squashes area most profit¬
able feed for hogs. They are easily
grown and can be made to yield ten
Ions to the acre. They may be fed all
winter either raw or steamed.
By keeping the fowls in a good,
thrifty condition during tho summer
all kinds of poultry can be fattened
very readily in the fall, or, iu fact,
at any time it is desired to market.
Keep the March and early April
pullets for laying. If given comfort¬
able quarters they will lay regularly
the greater part of the winter. Late
hatched pitiless will rardv lay before
spring.
If the pastures are short sow a plot
of Hungarian grass and turn the stock
on it as soon as it is high enough in
order lo give the pasture time to re¬
cuperate. Any kind of green crop
will answer for a change.

How Bears Get Honey.
There are a good many black bears
in the larger swamps of South Caro¬
lina, and these fellows frequently
roam over the pine forests in the sum¬
mer and autumn in search of bee
trees, where patches of ripening corn
arc not convenient. When a bear has
found a tree containing a swarm of
bees, be will climb without loss of
time to Ihc orifice, and proceed to
gnaw it until it is enlarged sufficiently
to admit one of his paws and then his
feast begins. It must not be supposed
that lie is permitted to do the gnawing
unmolested. The bees attack him
fiercely about tho head, but lie goes
right o'i with his business, pausing
only accasionally to rub the insects
off against the bark of tho
tree when they crowd on too
thick, and tiie rest, of the time
seeks relief from their torture in
short, savage growls or grunts, varied
by ail occasional squeal. When lie
can get one of his paws into the ori¬
fice, lie rakes out liio comb in great
chunks and swallows it greedily, bees
and all. As a rule, there is very little
left of bees or nest when lie lias fin¬
ished the job. Occasionally hunters
have come across a boar in the act of
robbing a bee tree and taken Bruin
homo with them.
In New Hampshire the boys and
youths have a good deal of sport I y
baiting the bees in the woods with
honey and following them up to their
trees, which arc then robbed in a man¬
ner similar to that described above.—

Tiie Elephant’s Memory.
The elephant lias an excellent mem¬
ory. It recollects friend- well and it
rarely forgets an injury. It is recor¬
ded of one that it smashed a cocoanut
upon its driver’s head, and smashed
(he man’s head at the same lime, be¬
cause the lazy, thoughtless fellow had
broken a cocoanut on its skull the day
before. A quartermaster engaged in
superintending the removal of bag-
gage in the camp by means of an ele¬
phant, became angry at the creature’s
refusing to carry more than a certain
weight, and foolishly flung a tent-peg
at its head. Some days afterward the
elephant overtook the quartermaster
as he was going through the camp,
seized him with its trunk and neatly
placed him among the branches of a |
tamarind tree, leaving him to reach \
1
i he ground again in the best way he
could.—[New York Advertiser.
Iltm lo Set a Table.
“Learn first,” saj's Delmonico in an
article in the November Ladies’ Home
Journal, “how to set a table. A round
tabic is better than a square table, if the
dining room is lar^e enough to permit
it. If not, then the ordinary oblong ex¬
tension table muat be used. The round
tabic ia much more preferable and easier
gestion to seat people the at, besides it gives a sug¬
of famous “King Arthur aud
the Knights of the Round Table. Flow¬
ers should never be abseut from the din¬
ner table. No matter how homely, they
add to the picturesqueness of the feast.
Lot us see how a table is set for a fash¬
ionable dinner party. On the table is
first placed a thick flannel cloth, the
thicker it is the better, ns it prevents
noise of the dishes as they are placed on
it. Over this is sprend a snowy-white
damask tablecloth, bearing the family
crest or coat-cf-arms. Sometime over
this is. placed still another of elaborate
embroidery yellow and lace, lined with p'ink or
satin, os taste dictates or what¬
ever co'or is to predominate at the diu-
ner. The plates are first placed upon the
table. As these are to remain until after
soup is served, they are always the hand¬
somest in the gold or china sets as the
case may be. Don’t crowd. Each guest
should be allowed a pace of two feet or
twenty-five inches, if the table willnduiii
of it, and the plates placed a* equal dis¬
tances apart. Place two dinner forks to
tho left of each plate. On the right
must be a dinner knife and a spoon for
soup. The glasses are arranged at the
right inm of each guc-t on a line with the
is r edge of the plate. '] he water glass
set next to the plate. Then glasses
for whatever other beverages are intended
to be served. A class, whether of water
or any other liquid, should never le filled
more than three-quarters full.

It is an old-fashion notion
that medicine has to taste
d to do any good.
Scott’s Emulsion is cod-
liver oil with its fish-fat taste
