IHE OMAHA DALY BEE: WEDNESDAY. APRIL 12 1882 THE SUPERNATURAL. The Old Hra of Superstition Still Finding Adhe- rents. “Witcheraft BExerting Its Influence Over a Farmer's Family Strong Testimonials. Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer. GenrMaNTOws, Ohio, April 8.— The parties whose affidavits are given below are highly respected and well-to-do farmers, living three miles northwest of our city. They gave their statement freely and earnestiy and truthtully, as I believe they are sincere in thinking that they are under the influence of a witch. They rely on God and their friend Kutz to help them out of their troubles. When your correspondent drove into the yard the old gentleman grected him in the most cordial manner, and when asked if he was out of his trouble et, he said no, that he was very me to-day. He said I should wait until his sons came, and they gave me & full statement, Which is as follows: The State of Ohio, Montgcmery County, ss.—Daniel B. Staver, of German township and county of Montgomery, being duly sworn, says that he could not work at all for about four weeks before the holidays, or about the 1st of December, 1881. 1 was not sick, but was not able even to help feed the stock on the farm, and sometimes I could not sleep of nights. Isaw a woman in front of my bed oue night. I knew the wo- man; she was a single woman; she -was & neighbor woman; she was stand- ing in front of my bed when I vngkened up., She disappeared sud- denly and mysteriously. There was n0 light in the room at the time. She looked as though there was a light on her. She looked natural. I knew her. Her name is Miss —— As near as I can tell, it was between night and daylight. ] went to slecp after I saw her. Her appearance wmade no change in my condition as to ability to work. When I attempted to work I would tremble and shake all over. 1 had no rest anywhere, and when 1 attempted to go awa; from the farm T could not go. The trou- ble still affects me a little yet, once in awhile. Sometimes the horses (which always did work before) sould not work, They would stand still, T was at Dayton one day during the time of my worst troubles, and I wished my- self home before 1 was half way there. The trouble came on me on the road, and I had no pleasure that day. There is a man in our neighborhood working on our troubles to remove them. His name is Isaac Kutz, Miss — told me she had already signed me over to the devil. And she told me that she could do any thing the devil could do, Sworn to and subscribed before me this Tth day of April, 1882, Lroxipas 8. ORICKMORE, Notary Public, Montgomery County, Ohio, . The state of Ohio, Montgomery ss.: Daniel Staver, Sr., of German township., Montgomery county, Ohio, being duly sworn, saya: The state- ment made by his son, Daniel B. Staver, is in substance, o far as it is possible for him to know, true, and that the hair came off of one of three horses’ neck from the head back to the shoulders, and that the two lost their hair in spots; and that his other four horees were not so affected; that he chased the cat and got sick, nerv- ous and trembled after chasing her. Kutz has not been here since last fall. His Daxier X STAVER, Mark, Attest: F.J. L¥ ETT. Sworn to and signed before me this 7th day of April, 1882, LEoNinas 8, CRICKMOR! Notary Pablic, Montgomery Co., O. The state of Ohio, Montgomery county, ss.: William B. Staver, be- ing duly sworn, says that Daniel B. Staver is his brother, and that the statement made by him in his affidavit is true as near as he can possibly tell; that he eaw the same blue cat, some- times large and sometimes small; think Miss —— appeared to me, but am not certain; my brother told me that Miss —— had made me sick, T was sick for a long time. I believe that Isaac Kutz is a witch-driver. Wy, B, Staves. Sworn to and signed before me this 7th day of April, 1882, ’ Lreox1vas 8. CRICKMORE, Notary Public, Montgomery Co., O. Test the Seed Corn. There is quite a feeling of distrust among thinkine farmers in regard to the condition of the seed corn raised last year. The matter is still more aggravated by the fact that none was left over from the crop of 1880, Last year the same difficulty was experi- enced in the county where the writer resides, and the shortage in the crop from poor seed wasimmense. In our immediate vicinity the first planting failed entirely. One of our neighbors madé a good thing for himself, and did a very fine thing for the com- unity around by offering his erib of corn, left over from the crop of 1879, for seed. It was eagerly bought up to the very last bushel, and it grew very finely. Probably the people in many other localities might relate similar experiences. But the diffi- culty now is that we have no such cribs of sound, perfect corn in any part of the county, and reliance must be entirely placed upon corn which was rezularly saved for soed. Great care should, therefors, be used in testing 1t before going to the labor and expense of planting—for of all the vexations of far:n life there are fow more worrying and unsatisfac- and that she was signed over to the devil. She smd that she would not Jet me loose until I had spent more money than I would make this winter. God and Kutz told me that I should kill a black dog, a black cat and a black rooster and take them off of the farm, and that would lcose me frem the devil. I did killa black dog, cat and rooster and took them off of the farm, I can go off of the farm now, but have no ure any where; but as to the devil the spell is broken. But I am still in the clutches of Miss ——. There was a strange blue (Maltese) cat here, an who- ever of the family that walked behind the cat would get sick, if they attempted to chase her. Sometimes this cat was very large, at other times she wae very small. We had to throw out all of our apples, There ‘was no rest in the house until we would throw them out. Everything that was raised on the farm was saved. But whatever was bought must be de- stroyed, I saved the furniture in the house by just throwing my hat on the ground and stamping. Miss —— compelled me to go with a girl (she Wwas 8 good girl) that Thad no thought of going with. Miss —— said I was r good a fellow as was around; that was too good for her (Miss ——), and too honest. But the spell 1s broken as to the girl' I was compelled to,fi) with, and I don't have to go with her. She (Miss ——) said she ‘would make me marry the girl within one year, At the time Kutz was trying to get me loose from the devil; he could not manage it to get me losse, for Miss = was helping the devil. I went one morning betors daylight to Farm- ersville for Rev. Amos Poorman to pray to God for help. Mr, Poorman prayed for me in my presence, and in the presence of his wife he prayed for | s our entire tamily—for me and for the girl Miss —— drove me to go with, and for the girl's father, This was on & snowy morning. My fathor was with me at Mr. Poorman's, Before I went to Mr, Poorman’s (the harness was in the house,) as I was approach- ing the stable with the harness to put on the horse, father reached for the collar, 1 said the horse had the col- lar on and the halter off. 1t was the collar that we always used on that horse. This was on Tuesday, and the collar had been taken off on Bunday at noon, or two days before. Iam troubled with a cough Miss —— brought on me. She said she would remove the cough this ye: Kut did his duty for l‘ll cough; reliovo; it some. mething told me to take some cough drops that were in the house, and I did 8o, and set the bot- tle back in its place. When the same mysterious thing said to me, ‘“Throw e out and eay, ‘Here, devil, take this bottle, drops, ecough and all,’" Idid so. Again the voice said to me, “Go break the bottle;” but when [ went out the bottle was gone and could not be found, Many other things happened that I would not like to tell. Miss —— was up, and told Mr, Poorman ‘‘that she was a witeh,” I have not spoken to Mr, Poorman about the matter. Mr. Poorman did not tell me this, but the same i, ous voice told me, Mr. Poorman told me that there wero luuuph things as witches, and that he did not believe that either Miss — or Kuwz knew anything about our troubles, He said he would believe it if Miss —— would tell him by . Miss —— said that her learned her witcheraft. The Rev, Mr, Poorman is & good man, » Daxier B, Braves, tory than that of replanting a corn- field. Some experts are of the firm belief that they can determine the question of vitality in seed corn by carefully eXamjping the germ or “‘chit,” but this test is not by any means an infallible one, though some of our own meighbors rely upon it. But the safest and best plan is to take numerous samples from various parts of the quantity intended for segd, and sprout them, This can be dorle very mll{, planting them in small boxes, and keeping them in a warm place— and this is the common mode 1n use among our neighbors. Ordinarily, if the conditions are all favorable, and the seed “‘strong” and good, the sprouts will begin to shoot 1n two or three days. If they do not appear in six or seven days, the corn should be rejected as worthless, If a part of it sprouts, and the other kernels appear unduly swollen aud puffy, it should be rejected. A near neighbor of ours has a novel plan of testing his seed corn. He first puts on his spectacles, aud selects it with the greatest circumspection, breaking the ears, discarding the ker- nels from the small ends and care- fully examining the ‘‘chit.” After the selection 18 duly made, he tests a kernel or two from fifty or a hundred ears in this way: He takes up a sod eighteen inches square, in some warm, sunny spot, and evenly spreads his sample of corn over the space below. The sod is then carefully replaced. If the conditions of moisture and tew- perature are all right, the corn sprouts readily in a couple of days. An ex- amination can bo made easily at any moment by lifting the sod. when the condition of each individual kernel can be seen at a glance. When good seed 1 used the appearance upon removing the ’ after the corn begins to sprout is a very beautiful ono. Not only are the sprouts rapidly shooting, but in- numerable little rootlets which shine and glisten like silver will have been sent out in all directions ufter the food which the growing plantso quick- ly requires This manuer of testing soed corn not only enables one to set- tle the question of its germinating power very speedily and satisfactory, but it makes a most beautaful exper:- ment, which will delight any observ- ing person, und especially those who take an interest in botany, The failures of the past year should not only inspire every farmer witha great degree of caution in regard to the quality of the corn he plants, but should also lead hereafter to extra caro in the selection and preservation of seed. Many take no thought about this most important work at the pro- per season, but still rely upon taking it with very little selection from the crib, Even seasons aftor which the corn is unusvally well matured this is but a A)oor, unthrifty and shiftless metho , but seasons in which the corn failed to ripen - perfectly it is worse than taking chances blindly, Although so much has been writtén on this subject there is still & great amount of missionary work to be done in inspiring the mass of farmers 1o resort to the most intelligent meth- ods of securing and preserving seed cora, The experience of last year-- thousauds of grievois and annoying failures—raises the question in our wind whether it would not be well for overy urnu‘ar to make it a rule to carry over & year's supply of seed corn, The wood luck of our” thrifty neighbor, who sold & whole cribful of the crop of 1880 in the spring of 1881, is cer- tainly suggestive. The great trouble about this business is that seed corn —— B must be selected and saved at a vi busy time, and it seems to be a tasl that can well enough be put off from day to day, and so it is neglected by the average farmer.

Their Hatablishment at Lara- mie is Now a Settled Fact. Where the Works Will be Located A Few Facts About Soda. Laramie Boomerang. Last Thursday afternoon clerk, transferring from Colonel 8. Downey to Sidney Dillon the ontire property known as the soda lakes, west of the city. Mr. Dillon, as agent for the Union Pacific, no con- trols the whole of that vast deposit of soda, and as the following will show, will make use ot his newly acquired property in a manner whereby his company and our city will be mutu- -llB benefitted : uring Mr. Downey's late visit to Omaha he met Mr. Kimball, and-had quite a léngthy interview with him regarding (he soda lakes and the es- taplishment of reduction works here, Mr. Kimball assured him that it would be done, and at once. It is the in- tention of the company to erect their buildings, furnaces, put in machin- ery, etc., this summer, and their agent is now in Europe purchasing the ne- cessary appliances to reduce the soda and prepare it for commerce. Mr. Kimball said that the works would be located on section 5, on the east side of the river near where the Laramie & North Park branch crosses it. A branch road will also be run from the works to the limestone quarries at the base of the mountains east of the city. We have no means of knowing how | E many men will be employed in carry- ing on the work of quarrying and re- ducing the soda and preparing it for the market, but the force will probas bly be pretvy large. From a letter written Mr. Downey by Mr. David J. Playfair. of Glasgow, Scotiand, who has had years of expe- rience in the business, we are able to lay before our readers somé™ interest- ing facts relative to soda and 1ts uses. The soda, as found in these lakes, is called sulphate of soda, Mr, Playfair says it might either be dried and sent to market in its natural state, there being an increasing demand for it among the Pittaburg glass makers, or | . might first be convertedintocarbonate of soda or caustic soda. Most of the above kinds of soda used in thiscoun- try is at presentimported. The import duty on sulphate of soda is about twenty per cent. of its value; on car- bonate of soda about 85 per ton, and upon caustic soda of any strength about $35 per ton. In making either caustic or carbenate of soda, the firat three steps are the same for both. First, drying the sulphate of soda as it is taken from the lakes. Second, the black ash process, or converting the sulphate of soda into carbonate of soda. Third, the lixiviation of the black ash. Then if carbonate of soda, or soda ash is to be made, the solution from the black ash is evap rited and the resulting salts calcined iu a carbo- natiug furnace. If, however, caustic soda is wanted, the solution from the black-ash is di- luted, boiled with burat line, allowed to settle, run into pans and concen- trated, settled again, and then finish. ed in iron pots—the finshing proces consisting in driving off all the water, fusing the caustic soda ata bright red;heat, oxizing and sulphides that may be present by means of ni- trate of soda, then allowing the caus- tic soda to settle ahd cool somewhat, and lastly packing it, while still liquid, in iron drums, The uses to which alkali, in the form of caustic or carbonate of soda is put, are many. The more important ones are to make soap, paper, washin, soda, bi-carbonate of soda and glass; to purify mineral oils, to make such compounds of soda as sulphite, hypo- sulphite, borax, acetate, staunate, phosphate of eoda; also bromide, iodide, ete., of sodium, It is used as o flux in treating some of the rare metals, and generally to neutralize acids and precipitate metallic oxides and carbonates, In closing his leiter Mr. Playfair says he thinks a soap fuctory, in con- nection with the soda works, would puy—that with plenty of tallow from our beeves, and caustic soda st hand, Laramie should be able to compete successfully with Chicago for the local and western trade, Gluss works, also, could be worked to advantage. In this connection, we give the fol- lowing, from the Deuver Republican: *'Mr. N, K. Boswell, of Wyoming, wes at oxposition headquarters, yesterday, arranging for a Ydl dis- rlxy even larger than the celebrated ump he exhibited at the Centennial. Mr, Boswell has a deposit spread over some 400 acres, varying from five to twenty-one feet in thickness of merchantable sulphate of soda. He had a block of about three tons weight at the Centennial, but promises to send ui ill of four tons weight for exhibition, He informs as that the people of Wyoming have heard of the exposition and are not wasting any time, As for himself he will dis- play hus soda and magnesia, and see that his neighbors show their riches,” ——— Bucklin's Arnica Salve, The Best SALvE in the world for Cuts, Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Rheuw, Fever Rores, ‘letter, Chapped Hands, Chilblains, Corns, aud all_skin eruptions, and posi- tively cures piles.
