SHERMAN TKOUT ON CATTLE.

He Gives the Farmers of Putnam Oounty borne 'Valuable Pmntors. Sherman Trout is thus quoted by the Greencnstla Banner and Times:

Sherman A. Trout, a cattle dealer from Montgomery county, was seen on the streets this week, and when inter viewed by a reporter as to the future for cattle, said: "The good old times are coming again. During the past tew years it. has often been said, 'Cattle will be better next year this state of affairs cannot long exist,' that people in general have lost faith and given up in despair. "The cattle situation now is similar to that of the hog in '91 ano '92, and beD I say that a reaction will take place I do not base my assertion on the action of the latter or imagination, but from statistics and circumstances in general. "The production of cattle and bogs are quite different. We can, in fifteen or eighteen months, produce and market in first class stvle two crops of hogs, while for cattle it requires three years to market one The reaction will not be so rapid as it has been in hogs, for it takes longer to bring it about but it is coming nevertheless and the early dawn is here. "If we return a few years we remember tho great ranchmen were buying everything for the purpose of stocking up. They then had a vast field in which to operate. Immigration is steadilv filling this one idle area and great ranches are and have been fast becoming things of the past. We see the same men now, instead of buyers, turning sellers at a rapid rate. "Another important factor is the ex portation of our meat product. Foreign lands have realized that we are producers and that they cannot exist with out our assistance, which, of course, we are only too glad to lend, especially when we are getting paid for it. ,W!en we read the market reports and visit the great market centers we are amazed at the wonderful live Btock production and wonder whence it comes. But Bgain when we patronize the great hotels and restaurants of our larger cities and see the hungry masses being fed and think of the various purposes for which our tnoat production is put, not only in this country, but abroad, we nek ourselves will it always be possible to maintain this supply and from where does it come. "Ot course wo all know that this is fast becoming a manufacturing nation. Every day indications point to a stronger demand and less supply. Farms are becoming smaller, farmers are moving to town. The remaining ones are selling their young stock to local butchers and getting out of cattle raising as fast as possible." "Thon you think it policy to make preparations for the reaction now?" "Yes sir. The man who wants to be 'in the swim' had better be getting ready now. As for myself, I expect to lease all tho pastures I oan find and buy every hoof that is not a 'pennyroyal' or a 'scrub1 for by the frosts of next autumn they will be in strong demand and for prices that are 'out of sight.' "I should think with tho bright prospects ahead that you realize something from your dealings." "Some people after handling as many crttie as I have during the past six months would be wearing diamonds, but you do not see any glittering on my manly bosom that dazzles your eyes do you? The steady advance in price and the sudden awakening ot people causes them to think they are being robbed if I ask a profit. Believing in the theory that farm products should be consumed on the farm with the exception of wheat, and the fascination for trading dollars, I content myselt with the pay for feed consumed, thinking 'quick 6ales and small profits' a good policy to pursue." "Why are prices fc fat stock no better now?" "Because primo stock is not being

sent to market. The man who owns a fancy load of cattle will not accept such a market, for he knows he oan do better by holding.lt you will notice the quotations they are for stock that is not ripe, but when yon see a sale ot well fattened stock it is for a price above the market quotations. You will BIBO notice advices from market centers to delay shipments until the production is suitable for market." "Do you have much difficulty in finding good stock." "Good stock is as hard to fiud as honest men. You would be surprised at the scarcity of desirable cattle. Few parsons realize tho true situation of affairs. This time last year I could buy all the cattle I wanted in a few days' ride, but now if I get a load a week I think I'm doing well. If hear of a man who has a full load for sale, he is the man I try to find. Especially is this true of two year olds. Last fall they were to be found, now they seem to have disappeared from the earth. Think they must have risen with the prices—to the moon. This weather has required a great deal of teed to keep stock in order and the man who has cattle is not a very anxious seller, now that spring is here. Buyers who have been lying dormant during the cold weather, thinking thoy will stock up at fall prices will get his eyes openod, for the man who haB fed cattle this winter has been awake.

Ail ENJOYABLE OOflOEET.

The Musical Amateur-Lotus Olub Oonoert Proves Eminently Successful. What was probably the most artistic and strictly classical home talent conoert in the history ot Crawfordsville, was given at Musio Hall last night by the Musical Amateurs under the auspices of the Lotus Club. The concert was quite pretentious in character and every number was executed with tin elegance and correctness which excited the admiration of the large and refined audience. The programme carried out was as follows: 1'AltT 1. Ninth Symphony Joseph llaydn ylil'J)

Accompanists, Miss Iveegwii. Mrs. Scott., Miss Wolfe. Mrs. Anderson. The pianos used were two De-ker Bros., concert grand and were furnished by the courtesy of D. H. Baldwin & Co. This feature had the effect of adding considerably to the success of the evening's entertainment. The ladies not only appeared at their best in the execution of their work but in their dress as well, the gowns worn being both beautiful and elaborate. At the request ot the performers tho foot lights were not on but in spite of the omission all appeared to good advantage. The entertainment opened with the rendition ot the Ninth Symphony by Misses Hall and Landman and Mesdames COBS and Nye. Their execution was faultless and their maBtery ot tho difficult music was a clearer demonstration of their musical ability than the hearty round ot applause which followed their effort.

The vocal quartette composed of Mrs. Thomas and Misses Kline, Morgan and Cowan with Miss Keegan aB accompanist proved excellent in Schubert's serenade. The instrumental solo by Miss Stilwell which followed was short bnt was both faultlessly performed and exceedingly pretty as well. The performance of Miss Stilwell was followed by the vocal solo of Miss Campbell, Mrs. Anderson accompanist, and proved to be one of the most pleasing and successful features of the evening. Miss Mary Campbell shows marked improvement and WHB heartily encored. Her voice was quite clear and the words quite distinct and audible in all parts of the house. The first part was to have closed with the "Spanish Bolero" by Misses Katherine Campbell and Manette Wolfe. Miss Wolfe, however, had fallen during the day and received injuries which prevented her appearance. The omission proved a general disappointment but oil were pleased when the number was supplied by Miss I'lumley with a minuet. Miss I'lumley is one of the fiuest artists ever in the city and displays rare ease and grace in her playing. She was called back twice but did nut play.

After the intermission the first feature was the vocal eolo by Miss Dice, Mrs. Anderson aecompnnist. Miss Dice, in addition to a magnificent stage bearing has unusually good facial expression. Her voice is both strong and rich, especially in the low notes, and her rendition was both correct and exceedingly pleasant. Her solo was one of the best features ot the entertainment.

The next number was the concerto in "A" minor by Miss Plumley, Mrs. Anderson accompanist on Becond piano. The work was very difficult and very beautiful and the audience attested its appreciation by calling Miss Plumley back. The "Spring Song," by Miss Cowan, which was to have followed, was omitted, Miss Cowan suffering with a severe

cold. Misses Landman and McClellan and Mesdames Anderson and Herrc n' oomposed the instrumental quartette' wlioBeexecution ot the Hungarian danccs so pleased and delighted the audience. The performance closed with a vocal quartette of Misses Campbell, Dice,! Binford and Cowan, Mrs. Scott accompanist. The song was an exceedingly pretty one and was rendered in exquisite style, it being generally appreciated. The entertainment was in all things a glowing auccess and both the management and artists are to bs warmly congratulated. The musicians present are unanimous and cordial in their praise and it may truly be said that the music rendered even had charms to soothe the savage beasts of some present who didn't know Johannes Brahms from a section hand or Paderewski from a nnmon tramp.

A fool For Luck,

Just a few weeks before the presidential election, Jake Hesler, of Cain township, stopped into a wholesale and retail carriage house in Crawfordsville, for the purpose of buying a family carriage, and looking over tho stock was shown a fine carriage that had taken the first premium at the Crawfordsville fair, which was priced to him at §200. Jake thought he could not afford to invest so much money in a vt-hicle of that kind, but looking at it again and thinking it was "too dog-oned purty" to let escape, offered the proprietor 8175 for it, and after considerable humming and hawing at last decided to take Jake's offer. Jake got his money out and by some moans politics wf.s introduced, Jake taking the Cleveland side of the question, declaring it was an utter impossibility to elect Harrison, and gave his reasons therefor, and advised the carriage men, who Were thoroughbred Republicans, to chance no money on Harrison's election. While tho controversy was going on another of the firm stepped in and took a hand, declaring that Harrison's election was a foregone inclusion, and that he would be elected ist as easy as falling off a log. Jake t'-ied to convince him of his error, but the partner wouldn't convince worth a nt, and at last said "I'll tell vou what I'll do yon take that carriage une, and it Cleveland is elected it will not cost you one cent, but if Harrison i-i re-elected you pay the firm $200. J.ke accepted the proposition, pined the SI70 back in his wallet, drew up the n'ceesary papers and signed thorn, and then hitched up the carriage and drove it, home. The election went Jake's way, a now hn rides in one of the lint st images in Fountain county, and the beauty of it all is, it didn't cost him one c,-nt. Hero again is the truth of the adage, "A fool for luck and a po-r mqn for dogs and children."—Sjienee's

Some Very fine Apples,

Daniel Konk, who lives two miles southeast pf Jsew Ross, has a very fine specimen of apple. He planted some sed of Vandivier and one of the plants has proven to be a very fine variety. He has a tree that bears twenty bushels of apples every year without fail. It goes by the name of the lionk apple. The fruit is large, rather flat, resembles the Vandiver, very smooth and symmetrical and a rich, waxen yellow and red. In flavor it is sub acid and a lino eating apple. Mr. lionk is a practical farmer and a student in botany and is always testing plants and shrubs, and a glance over his farm will only convince one of his ability.

Twenty-Four Yards of Dress Goods, The way dresses are mude now it requires between three and five yards of dress goods per dress. This will all soon be a beautiful 3ream of the past. The new hoop shirt stylo that is coming in will require about 21 yards of dress goods per dress. Thnt is different. A few have already been introduced in Indianapolis and have scared the electric cars off the track.
