A Bad Mix.

The Cincinnati Enquirer shows how badly printers sometimes get things mixed up by saying: Geo. Kinder, editor of the Putnam County Sentinel, recently wrote up a herd of short horn o tile, and the same week the ladies of Ottawa gave h concert which George pufled in flowery language. The foreman had drank too much “ r ar, ’and got the items sun what mixed. This is how they read: “The concert given by the sixteen of Otta- Was most beautiful young ladies was highly appreciate. They we e elegantly dressed, and sang in the most charming manner, winning the enthusiastic plaudits ot the entire audience, who pronounced them the finest shot -horns in the country. A few of them are of rich brown color, bur the majority of them are spotted, br >wn and white. Several of the heifers weigh us high as fifteen hundred pounds—fine bodies, light limbed animals. They are exce’lent milkers, and as high as twenty pounds of b v tt r have been made from them in a sing • Week.”
