BY A MONROE COUNTY FARMER, OX TUB TOMSK qUESTIOS. One of the Progreaa most valued farmer friends bands in for publication the following suggestions, t bat are worthy of a careful reading: - Editor Progreaa: With your permission I desire to make a suggestion to farmers of Monroe county. Much baa been said of late years da the subject of forestry. In some localities Uncle Sam and imw nf his enternrfrrinz sons have
transDtaated larze tracts
Would it not be viae
their example? I would suggest, instead of planting after the manner ot the original forest, and give op our tillable land now that it it cleared, we set trees on the outskirts of the form, along the fence row where it has never been cultivated and is consequently the richest soil; and while too the fences, some of wbieh like their owners, seem to have served oat their usefulness and want to lie down and rest are there to protest them. Especially would it be desirable along the public highway, where they would not only be "a thing of beanty and joy forever," bat a real comfort both to man and beast when "old Sol" is coming down the near way and the mercury is boiling op to 95 or 100. How pleasant then, as the one traveling along complacently and the other -lying quietly under those coav shade trees, both chewing the quid ! "this is a joke on the cow." Aside from the beauty and eran-
fort that mav be had from these
shade trees, there is another eonaideration that imperatively demand that they should be set out, and that is -as substitutes for posts. With two staples for each tree and
four continuous wires, the oust of
which wonkl only be nominal, and
pickets 1x3 and 6 feet long to be interwoven with the wires, a fence
be made that will turn a deer
; a dear. A tree that would
make rails enough to fence
50 feet, would if sawed or riven into pickets, make 500 feet, and last twice as long.being in a perpen
dicular instead ot a horizontal po
sition.
It does not require the ken of a
prophet to see that something most
be done or oar farms mast be ten
oat in the cold. The way the forests are being depopulated, if it
continue in the same ratio fort wen
ty years, there will not be timber
enough kit to make, a respectable pig pen. Go any direction yon
amy in a radios oi 12 miles, Bloom
iagton being the center, and there w not, absolutely, rati timber enough to make one-fourth the rails that
now checker the land. Extend the bosadary and the proportion is nearly the same. Oneaaya "nave
a stock law all over the county, Amen ! "so mote it be," Rut a
must have some land fenced to keep the stock from straying. Make atone fences? The average former
is not able to.
Now it you or some of our rural friends will devise a plan or make
a better sngKestioo to avert the
coming crisis, it will be adopted by

THE CRUCIAL TEST.
The severe analytical tests" to which the various baking powders have from time to time been placed have demonstrated clearly to the public the relative merits of the different brands from a scientific point of view. The Government chemists, for instance, have found in their official tests that the Royal Baking Powder gave off the largest amount of leavening gas, and' therefore was the most economical for general use. For this reason it was placed at the head of the list and recommended for Government use. In addition to this, the chemists found the Royal to be absolutely pure, and the .only baking powder that did not contain either lime, alum, or bone or rock phosphate. But the crucial test of the kitchen is, after all, the most satisfactory to the housekeeper. A baking powder that never fails to make light, sweet, wholesome, and palatable bread, biscuit, cake, etc., upon all occasions, is the one that will be placed at the head of the list by the practical housewife, and received into her kitchen for continuous use. This test the Royal Baking Powder has stood for over twenty years without a single failure, and hence its reputation as the best baking powder made has spread from house to house, until its use has become as universal as its merits are unrivaled.

An Interview
BY etTK VIGILANT SPECIAL
KEPOKTEB
WITH A FARMER OJt CLEAR CREEK,
Reporter "I see yon have some
good practical tanners on the Creek,
from the manner in which they
keep their farms and the attention
paid to their stock. 1 here seems
to be system in all they do."
Farmer "True, vet it ib not si
ways the man who has the most
acres that ia the best practical farm-
"Who is considered the best
farmer on the Creek V
"This is a very delicate question
for me to answer. Hugh B. Campbell is a model farmer, Wm. Blake-
ley, Geo. Stipp and Ab. Ketoham
are all considered excellent farmers, yet there are "lesser lights" that we consider their equals, if not super-
iois.
"Can you tell me why your land
sells higher per acre than ia any
other part of the county r
" 1 here are numerous reasons tor
this. First, the land is better than
any other body of land of equal size in the county. We have better roads, besides we have the rail
road with its station at our doors,
and one of the best shipping points
in the county, a postomoe, a telegraph office, an express office, and every other convenience known to suffering humanity."
You spoke of good roads are
you in favor of pikes on the Creek ?"
"Invariably we are, but we don't
like to pay for tbem."
"Is the land on the Creek worth what it sells tor?" "That depends altogether upon
what you want it for : if for farm-
ins, exclusively, it is not. But if
you want a good home in a good country, good average society, good
schools and churches, and amoug Republicans, it ia worth all it costs; aye, more." "You spoke of Republicans ; do they predominate on the Creek ?" 'Predominate ! I'd smile." "Can you give a good reason for this; if so, why?" ' There are many reasons. In the first place they are indigenous
to this soil. We have good schools, church privileges, &c, all indicative of high moral training, and conducive to the growth of Republican principles," "Then you are not in accord with the views of Mr. Cleveland and the Democratic party, on free trade." "Not much !" "May I ask who von arc for for President, in 1888 ?" "We are for the neminees of the conventions from President of the United titatt-A to Constable in old Perry tp. No discord in Perry."

Obituary.
Henry Ritter died on January
28th, 1888, at the residence of his son, John W., in Clay township,
Owen co.. Ind. Tbe subject of
this brief sketch was born on the
12th of February, 1808, in Ken
tucky. and was nearly four score
years old. He was married in his native State to Marv Naylor, and
in 1850 moved to Indiana and set
tied in Owen co., near the place
where be died. His wife preceded
him to the spirit land seventeen
mi i A. . . .
years ago. l oere are ten to mourn
his loss six children, namely : J no.
W., William and T. B., residing in Owen co., and Mrs. Isaac P. Hope
well in Monroe co., and George
ind James, residing in Illinois
Mr. Ritter has been one of the
substantial men of Owen county
His death removes another worthy
man and citizen. By industry and
economy he mads a fair success of
life and leaves an example for
imitation by those who follow after,
He possessed many qualities of rare
merit. In bis business relations he
waa strictly honest and truthful
He was a plain man in speech and manner of life, and despised everything that looked like display and hypocrisy. By listening to demands for delay, and yielding to pleas for forebearence by those who were false and untrustworthy, he lost tens of thousands of dollars. He expected to deal honestly and wanted others to deal so with him ; at the same time he was kind and forebearing in disposition, while he frequently bad it in his power to be exacting and oppressive. In 1874 he became a member of the banking firm of Beem, Peden & Co, of 8pencer, and continued in that relation to tbe time of bis
death. Thus has passed from the active labors and scenes of life one who was loved as a father, respected as a citizen and honored as a business man by all who knew him. The 8tate Board of Agriculture had a general discussion on interesting topics last week. The discussion on noxious weeds was taken up, and S. W. Dungan stated that ha raised very few weeds, and attributed tbe fact to bis keeping one or two hundred sheep' on the place. Colonel Willis Blanch said that white-top could be killed by early mowing, and that other weeds could be easily exterminated by the exercise of a little care in cutting them before the seeds ripen. He thought that sheep were useful in keeping weeds down. J. Hashberger said that iron weeds could be killed by continuous mowing. 8heep would destroy them but it was hard on the sheep. Foxtail and rag weed can be killed by breaking the ground early. J. N Davidson maintained that the sheep did not eat weeds, and that mowing was the best method ot extermination. He also said that weeds could be kept from growing up by making a heavy sowing of crops. Robert Mitchell favored mowing. J. Q. A. Sieg thought there was little hope of exterminating weeds until there was a general movement by farmers in that direction. Aaron Jooes said that proper cultivation would prevent weeds coming in any materia quantity. Sheep will aid largely in destroying them. Canada thistles ran be killed by putting salt on them. The next discussion, on deep plowing, was bricf.everybody agreeing that deep plowing was better than shallow plowing, except in extraordinary circumstances. THE 79TH ANNIVERSARY.

JAMES H. GASTON, Treasurer Monroe County. Bi.ooikgton, Ikdiana. January 4. 1888.
Stopping in front of his home on So. Spencer St., there alighted five ladies, whose childhood began when Madison was President. They had come to celebrate the birthday anniversary of Mr. Browning's mother, who was a little girl when the
first Jeffersonian democrat was declining to be made President for a "Third Term." These five distinguished guests were Mrs. W. H. Tibba, Mrs, Lowry, Mrs. Ifabells Davis, Mrs. E. Whitney, Mis. Ann S. Flavell. The evening was spent in wandering together through Memory's Hall," rejoicing or sighing as they beheld tbe pictures hanging there aome bright some faded many full of happiness and cheer and a few that were sad and subdued but none that they did
not eagerly live over again. Hearts beat loudly as bygone years were crowded with this joyous half day of precious memories. But past and present met most delightfully when tbe company assembled in the dining-room, to partake of a bounteous spread, prepared by Mrs. H. S. Taylor, daughter of Mrs. Browning. The smiling faces and ringing laughter of this ancient company must have made old Time doubt his power over human life. It was 9:00 p. m. when tbe company bade their hostess adieu with confident wishes for many returns of tbe day. We can almost forget that tbe day of life is closing into night when the sunset so fills tbe twilight with lingering golden hues of youth, beauty and grace.
Field's Mlctatrel Company. Wheeling Intelligencer, Dec. 20, 1887. There are minstrels and minstrels but no company ever strikes this section of country that meets with such a reception as is aocorded to Field's. Mr. Field himself is the prince of good fellows, a West Virginia boy, and a tremendous success at the head of a minstrel company. His company appeared Saturday night at the Academy of Music to a full house and gave entire satisfaction, and more. The show was remarkable for its clean, pure character, and equally remarkable for the fact that it didn't deal in stale jokes. Every "gag" was as bright as a dollar right from the mint. The music, both vocal and instrumental, was superb, the dancing excellent and the juggling and acrobatic business of an exceptionally clever character. To mention all of the good features would bu to recite in detail the whole entertainment, and to mention all of the good performers would be to name every man in the company. But we may say that Frank Pirrung, the equilibrist ; Frank Farrel, in his dudish negro act ; Lawrence Diamond's fine singing ; Charles A. King, the banjoist ; M. A. Richmond, bass soloist; Tliorne, the juggler; "The Premium Four," and Field himself, as an end man, have no superiors. It is a great
show, and will ahvays be greeted
