The Terrible Bxperience of a Man ‘Without Food i the Idaho Mountains. The Wood River Times has a long nccount of the adventures of Thomas F. Cox, a miner, who left Bonanza April 12 for Stanley basin, expecting to get work in the placers at that place; failing to obtain work, he started for Sawtooth City, distant 45 miles, and camped on the night of the 14th at Valley Creek. The next day, shortly after starting out, he met two men from Sawtooth, and made inqui- ries about the trail. These men eith. er misdirected him or he misunder- atood their directions, for on arriving at the creek that flows out of Redfish lake, he took up that creek instead of keeping on about six miles further to Beaver creek. He followed the ereek, arriving at the cabins, at the head of the lake, about 7 p. m. Supposing the town was just beyond he kept travel- ing until after dark. Then asnow storm settingin he became bewildered and wondered about in the tim- ber near the summit of the Atlantic pass divide until after midnight. Fiaally he got his bear ings and started back for the cabins, when he becime aware that his foot were frozen, Throwing away his roll of blankets he hastened forward, making the cabins the second time at about 11 o’clock on the forenoon of the 16:h. Hastily building & fire, he pulled off his boots and found both feet frozen. Not being able to pull on his boots again he concluded to use the only remedy at hand—a snow poultice - to relieve the pain. He kept his feet poulticed for four days, but at the end of that time, finding the snow brought no relief, he discon- tinued its use. His next thought was to keep agood lookout for passers. by. He would crawl out of the cabin, take a look, and crawl back again. No sooner back, and hearing the swaying of the giant pines that surrounded the cabin and mistaking that noise for the sound of human voices, out he would crawl again, only Hoslery, Gloves, Corsote, &. ~Cheapest House in ho Wost.

During the long, cold nights, suddenly awakened from a troubled eleep hy the hoarse screech of anight.owl, hewould crawl out in the darkness, hoping for the long-locked:for assistance, only to be more thoroughly aroused to his real situation, There being no wood at the cabins to keep the fire going, he burned up the rough board bedstead, cupboard and other cabin furniture, together with the chinking from between the logs as far up as he could reach, which he knocked out with an old short handled axe that he found. This exhausted he kindled a fire in one corner of the cabin, which burned the ends off six or seven logs, when the corner of the house dropped down ‘about five feet. Putting out the fire with snow, he kindled a fire in the other corner on the same side, which burned down as did the first, thus getting the middle of the logs for fuel. About this time, despairing of assist- ance passing by, he conceived the idea of making a pair of hand snow- shoes, with which to try and orawl to the settlement. He used the old axe In splitting and cutting a cabin log to the required +5, 1882 they that expect nothing, for the, shall be dissppointed.” f Sucoess is to be expected as the re- sult of diligence in this as in other things, and the injunction is good which commands—*Sow thy seed in the morning, and in the evening with- hold not thy hand.”—[Col. John Scott, in Towa Homostead, I am pleased to say that the use ot St. Jacobs Oil hes benefited mo greatly, and I have no hesitation to recommend it to all as an excellent curative, is the way the Right Rev. Bishop Gilmour, of Cleveland, Ohio, writes in reference to the Great Ger- man Remedy, 8t. Jacobs Oil, so popu- lar everywhere. Agricultural Surveys. Considering how valuable they would be to all classes interestod in land it seems remarkable that no sys- tematic surveys ot large portions of territory have been made in this coun- try, It would be within the province of the general or state government, or of railroad grant companies, to make them, and the latter could doubtless derive pecuniary benefit by so do- ing, An agricultural survey would enable them to sell their lands to much better advantage than they now do, and would save wsoltlers and prospective purchasers much trouble in making selections, If the surveys were only made with sufficient care and wero accom- panied with sectional maps a person could form a better idea of the capa- bilities of any particular tract than he could by personal insvection unless ho was an expert, The neurest approach to a systematic survey of any state has been made by the agricultural bureau of Kansas It is embraced in the various volumes of the published re- ports. By consulting them one is able tc form a very exact estimato of the value of lands in different parts of the state, and to judge of their capa- bilities for any particular purpoee. These reports have done much toward settling the stato, and have caused sottlers to move iato the sections best adapted to special branches of farmtng. An agriculture survey would be far more useful than a geological survey, us it would furnish more prac- tical information. Still a large pro- portion of the states have completed er commenced geological surveys, gen- erally at very great exponse. The re- port of these surveys have been val- uable to science, but they have re- sulted in very little good to any in- dustrial interest, except that of min- ing. An agricultural survey, on the other hand, would benefit all classes, as all are interested in agriculture An agricultural survey should eng brace an examination of the surface and subsoil of each section examined and should include a tolerable full in- vestigation of the composition of beth. It should furnish information in respect to the natural drainage and facilities for artificial drainage. A statement of the average fall of rain and snow, and the usual time of their occurrence should be given. The lia- bility to drought should be stated, as well as the usual effectsof the drought on vegetation, The report of the worvey should contain an account of the natural flora and detailed accounts of the natural plants that are availa- ble in the various industries. The size—about twenty inches long by five inches wide—then cut his boots for hand-straps, which he fastened to the wood with nails he pulled out of the cabin walls. He then made knee- pads with the remaining parts of his boots, making them as puffed up and as thick as poseible, s0 as #5 keep his feet off the frozen snow when crawl- ing. At last they were completed, and he was ready to make one more effort to save that which he would have destroyed in his fits of agony from pain— his life—when the long- looked-for assistance arrived. About four o’clock on the afternoon of the 27th, three men, journeying from Hailey to Atlauta, staried from Sawtooth, on the Atlanta trail. intend ing to camp at the cabins that night and make Atlanta the next day, some twenty-two miles. On nearing the cabins, one of the party saw Cox, but mistook him for an Indian, g0 black had he become from smoke. The joy of the poor frozen, famished man can be imagined. They gave him what nourishment they had with them, and one of the party went back to Saw- tooth for assistance. From the time Mr. Cox left Vallay Creek till his dis- covery, twelve days, he had eaten but four crackers and part of a box of sar- dines. Upon taking the information to Halley, where a eurgeon was ob- tained, it was found necessary to am- putate both feet, so badly were they frozen. ovating remed, A Ren Isto be found 1 BUkrbOC ’Bnoon Birrers, As an antidote or sick headaahe, female weakness, billious- nees, indigestion, constipation, and other diseasesof a kindred nature, these bitters are invaluable. Price, $1.00. m13dlw (Grass is Kiog, Before the war there was proclaimed in the halls of Congress and through- out the length and breadth of the land the reign of King Cotton, Over the plains of Dakota the producer bows down to wheat, and among our own valleys there are those who have placed eorn upon the throme, All these are but base usurpers. They have been and are mere tax gatherers, consumers of the wealth of the soil and causing their subjects to lpcmi their capital instead of their incomes. The lands they ruled have tended to poverty during their usurpations, and they have forced their subjects to es- cape from their domunion to save their lives, On the contrary grass is & mosy beneficent ruler, and is continually bestowing liberally to the land its owner, {L is the home of live stock that is ever becoming more aud more wealthy as & country, for it is con- tinually adding to its own capacity to roduce wnll{. The poesession of ive stock is an illustration of the proposition that ‘“to him that hath not shall be taken that which he soemeth to have.” The producer of grass is a feeder of the scil, He that raises grain for export is a soil- robber, The season is at hand for putting in grass, Prepare the soil as for & gar- den and sow seed with & liberal hand, If done early the season is not so shost that a full crop may not be reasonabl expected during the current year, done carelessly, consolation ID{ be found in the unorthodox but ex- pressive beautitude. ‘‘Blessed are native grasses| in each section should receive particular attention.

Notice should be mace of what kinds of fruit succeed and of those that fail. Inquiries should be instituted in re- lation to the cause of failures in lead- ing kinds of fruit, if any have occured. The wild fruit in tha vyicinity should be reported on, if any grow that are of any value, By affording informa- tion in respect to the indigenous pro- ductions much may be learned in re- gard to what kinds of cultivated crops will succeed, The report of an agricultural sur- vey would be inconplete without a full and accurate account of the natu- ral supply of water for domestic stock and fish-breeding purposes. 'I'he location of living streams and springs should be carefully mnoted and the character of the water they aftord. If water for farm purposes is only attain- ed from wells, the distance necessary to dig in order to secure it should be stated, If attempts have boen made in the vicinity, and on land havingthe same geological formation, to secure waterby means ef artesian wells, the resuits should be stated. The ex- istence of mineral springs should be noted, aud en account of the wa'er they afford should Le given, The roport should give an account of the supply of materials for fuel. If wood, coal, or peat exists on a given section, the fact should be stated, 1If they are obtained from a distance, the cost at the place of supply and the ex- pense of transportation should be given, Like statements should be given in relation to supplies of ma- terials for erecting houses and other buildings and for constructing fences. The location of quarries of building stone and of deposits of marl, gypsum, and limestone should be carefully noted, Thereportshonldstate the most obvious disadvantages of each section of territory surveyed. These are stu- diously avoided in reports sent out for the purpose of induoing persons to settle in any parlicular state or sec- tion, and are only discovered after sottlers are on the ground. In many cases they find difficulties that would have prevented their nmvinglhad they known of them in season, The infor- wation afforded by many of the pamphlets issued by states, terri- tories, and land agents are calculated to mislead and they generally have that effect.
