George Gould is a chip off the old block in that he is a rapid money getter. He made over a million dollars last year. That is not bad for a young man. It may be he had fome pointers from his able papa. The long struggle is over, and Ws E.

Poor Ned! bis sky was early o’ercast and his sun went down while it was yet day. —War- saw Times. Moss Mewman, a cultivated and popular young business man, ot Columbia, Mo., was found dead at 1 o’clock yesterday morning in an alley at the rear of Palmer’s saloon on Court house street. He had ween on a protracted spree ever since the city election in Columbia on the 5th inst. A bill passed the legislature ot this state at the last session, intend- ed to protect the owners ot stallions by giving them a lien on the progeny thereof, on their filing with the county recorder a certificate ot the service rendered. This is an im- ortant measure for stallion owners, and under its effects, those buying «ares in foal will do well to ascer- tain that no such lien exists in their case, In order to take advantage of this law, however, owners are re- quired to have bills printed and posted, giving their terms, or else advertise them for sixty days in some paper such stallion is kept. sation. en Gen.

It is located within the rain belt, | which insures abundant crops. | The soil is rich, black alluvial, I fron tive to six teet in depth, and in some places even deeper, very productive—will produce an abund- ance of any vegetation that can be grown in the temperate climate. The principal crops are corn, rye, wheat, barley, flax, oats, broom corn, castor beans, buckwheat, sorghum cane, potatoes and tobacco. All kinds of vegetables grown in a garden flourish in profusion and perfection, The climate and soil seems es- pecially adapted to the growth ot blue grass, which flourishes to an extent that is amazing to those from the blue grass regions ot the east. Timothy, red and white clover, orchard grass and millett all do well. It offers extraordinary inducements to stock raisers in that it turnishes cheap grain, plenty of pure fresh grazing lands, and ample water, transportation facilities. The stock raising industry is al- most phenomenal in its growth in the past few years. The interest in fine stock 1s increasing yearly and very many tarmers are devoting their time to this industry, Fine stock sales in the county are becoming quite frequent and the stock usually brings fancy prices. There 1s plenty of timber, and of substantial quality, for all present and prospective needs. The prin cipal timber is oak, ash, elm, hickory, maple, walout, pecan, syc- amore and cottonwood. The county is well watered with Springs and streams, while water, the very best quality in any quanti- ty, may be obtained in 15 or 25 feet. The county is all underlaid with coal, variabie in depth in different localities, and the veins varying in thickness trom three to seven teet. Millions of tons of coal are being shipped out each year, distributing money tn the county.

The only possible objection which can be urged against Judge DeArwonp’s nomination is his lo- cahty; but asa full state ticket is to be put in the field, this objection may not count for much, consider- ing bis special fitness for the posi- tion.
