ANOTHEii REMINISCENOCE, How Col, Kinsman was Censured for Standing Up for His lowa Boys, To the Editor of The Bee Couvsett, BLuers, Fobraary 13.—1 have noticed recently the name of the late W. 1. Kinsman, colonel Twenty-third lowa infantry, vno of the bravest and best of men, and also of some action about being taken to have his remains laid away for final rest at this place. In the winter oi 1863 1 was detailed at the adjutant gen- eral’s oftice of one of the divisions then en route from Pilot Knob, Mo, to Little Rock, Ark., commanded by 8. H. Boyd (Poney), of Springfield, Mo. Our sup- ply train was considerably behind, and wo laid in camp near West Plains for come length of time. All the infantry were more or less without shoes, and you could hardly find among the cavalry a saddle skirt that was not put in use for repairing the same, Col. R. R. Livingston, of the First Nebraska, commanded a brigade, of which the Twenty-third Iowa was a part. Livingston and Kinsman were not as good friends g8 might bo, owing, in a measure, to the love and respect Kins- man had for his regiment., During our encampment four or five companies (not a colonel’'s command) were ordered out, 1 think, on a foraging expgdition, as was also Col. Kinsman. The [fter very re- spectfally refused to obey anysuch order, stating as a reason the condition of his men, with snow on the ground, and be- ing almost barefooted, and that as lorig as he had command he would insist on their rights, and also informed Col. Liv- ingston there was cavalry that could do all that was required.

Purdee, who was arrested and lock- ed up in jail several days ago for stealing an ax and saw from John Wright, was before Justice Schurz yesterday and ac- quitted of the chargo of larceny, but se tenced to one day more for disturbing the peace. The only regret the boy seemed to feel was that it wasn't thirty days, but as he suggested to the ofticer lie can easily do something to get back in again. R T e come of it, as the enemy was reported in large force between the command and it. Col. Kinsman replied that if he would allow him to take the Twenty-third he would bring up the train, or know the reason why. This made the bero of Shiloh hot, and he ordered him under ar- rest immediately, and to his shame placed a guard of his own men over him. That afternoon, had it not been for Col. Kinsman and his oflicers and the cool heads of the regimeut, it would have taken all the First Nebraska, and what was left in‘*Kass” company to guard Col. “R. R.” and save him from his enemies. The excitement in camp was beyond de- scription, as all the members of the regi- ment considered it a slur and a direct - sult to them. In the following spring was a witness for Cel. Kinsman in a court-martial convened at St. Louis, Mo, Fitz John Warren was president of the same, and the result was that Kinsman was relieved of the command of his regi- ment for thirty days, The expiration of that time found him in command of his gallant Twenty-third in the rear of Vicksburg, and a_day or two afterwards he lost his life while leading his regiment in a charge, as T understand Firsr NEBRASKA, ——— Some Strong Minded Women Can regulate their husbands amazingly fast, should they not do their duty.

He represented lowa, while Mayor Palmer, of Plattsmouth, represented Nebraska; Colonel Theodore Wiseman, of Law- rence, represented Kansas; Mayor War- ner, the United States prosecuting attor- ney of Kansas City, represented Mis- souri, and Major Pease Colorado, By a talk with the returned delegate yesterday, Tur Ber learned that there was excellent ground for belief that the bill establishing such an institution would be passed. Ex-Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, introduced 1t in the house by & unanimous suspension of the rules, aud Senmator Allison, of Iowa, in a similar manner introduced it in the sen- ate. The bill was in each case referred to the committee on military affairs. Senator Logan, chairman of the senate committee, 15 understood to favor the bill as to the members of the committeo, The delsgation of veterans also inter- viewed the house committee, Mr, Lindt making himself known to the chairman, General Rosecrans, ag “‘one of his boys” introduced his comrades, and explained their wants and wish To hasten action in the matter a sub-committee of three was appointed with General Rosecrans as it chairman, and there seems no doubt but that the bill will be enthusiastically endorsed by them. A number of the members of both houses also freely expressed themselves as favoring the measure, and the delega- tion in yaying their respects to President Arthur were kindly received, and assured that he'would gladly sign such a bill if it passed, The bill provides for an appropriation of §260,000 for the erection of a soldiers’ home west of the Mississippi river, the exact location to be determined by the president, seeretary of war, and seven others named in the bill The only places which seem to be urging any claims for the location of the home, are Council Bluffs, Plattsmouth, Neb., and Ft. Riley, Kansas, It seems that Council Bluffs. in case of the pas- sage of the bill stood a most excellent chance for securing the home, and the Towa representatives toa wman, will na turally stand by Council Bluffs, and do their best to get it located here, o — The Coming Lecture, The press of Lagrange, Indiana, speak of Marion B.

Tt is probablo that barley will givo as large a yiold of milk as any grain, but not the best in_quality. A prominent member of the Pennsylvania dairymen’s association states that ground oata gives him better results than any other food, when a good quantity of best milk is desired. Many dairymen think it desirable to add a small quantity of cotton-seed meal, which undoubtedly adda to the richness of the milk, but it ia yot an open question whether the flavor of the butter 18 improved thereby. The Spring Pig. The honest and profitable pig is the ex ception among the average farmer, | be- liove the reason for this loss and vexation is in ignorance largely, and in hooedless- ness generally, No_ doubt this remark applios t5 all our farm stock, but the prosent articles has special reference to the writer's experience with two pigs bought May 8, then seven wooks old. For two weeks provious they had no milk. The feed during the two woeks was & mixture of cracked corn and fine feed, or shorts. 1 continued that feed for a couple of months with early vegeta- bles as they began to grow, and later with considerable cooked food turned out by the seashore boarding houses, During the two months past the feed has been meal and vegetables cooked together, They were grown on a platform of board« covered constantly with clean hay orgtraw and plenty of water was supplied all through the heated term, Nothing was withheld from them that they required from day t> day, but no food was al- lowed to accumulate beyond their imme- diato wants, A wasning now and then with soap and water kept the skin smooth and in healthy condition. The blood was a mixture of the Yorkshire and Ches- tew; they wore killed December 3. The united weight was 624 pounds. If that weight of pork can be produced in less than nine months, and better, for the reason of rapid growth, why should we allow our pigs to drag along the 12 months, burned in the summer heat and exposed to the frosts of winter with use- loss expenso and labor? To secure the above results, first be sure that your stock is strong and well started in life, give them a little better attention than you have been in the habit of doing and the result will be gnicker and surer re- for futurefeftorts.—[G. J. Peterson, Ply- mouth Co., Mass. An Irishman's Fertlizer, It is related that for many years a ccr- tain Trish lord received the premiums annually for his fruit. His orchards and grounds were thoroughly examined, but none could solve the mystery, and the next year would roll around and again he would secure his premiums, Finally 1t was discovered that his gardener had an old barn kept tightly locked, and in which had been constructed a large sta- ionary tub to receive his fertilizer, and beneath the earth, leading’ from the tub to the roots of his trees, was placed wa- ter tight earthen drains, and by the use of a hydrant he would occasionally let Y 000, and {' the water on to his fertilizer, and feed his trees on the liquid solution, pure and sweet as nature prepares 1t. And this was the Irishlord’s great secret that he was hiding from humanity. Valuable Catile, Mr. Robert McKnight who bought 480 acres of land near the farm of Robert Norton, about five miles northeast of this city, has just returned from Scotland with a car load of Polled Angus cattle. These cattle were purchased in Aberdeen, Scotland, by Mr. McKnight, and shipped here by way of Quebec, where they were held 1n fquarantine for ninety days. There are twelve head of them and they are from the best and purest strains of this famous breed. Mr. McKnight has twelve head of these cattle, seven of whichfare cows and heifers. one of the Iatter of which cost 500 guineas at Aher- deen, or about $2,5600 of our money. "1t is the intention of Mr. McKnight to start a breeding farm of this class ot stock and Adams county may well cor- sider herself in luck in securing so thor- ough and well qualitied a breeder as he is. This car load of stock cost him over $10,000 at this place. The Polled Angus are probably the best breed of cattle for this country and climate that could be brought here, being natives of a country of a cold rugged climate and accustomed for many generations back to the cold wintry blasts of that country, they ought certainly to thrive well here,—[Gazette Journal, A Successful Farmer, Mr. Charley Jewett, of Hamilton pre- cinet, who came to Nebraska ten years ago when few had confidence in this part of the state, thinks he is now on top of the situation. Notwithstanding the first five years brought but little to the home- steader beyond a scanty living and his improvements upon his farm, we now find Mr. Jewett with one of the finest quarter sections in the county, well im- proved —house, barn, orchard, groves, granaries, ete., for its conveniences,yards for stock, water and farming machinery. This year ho has raised three thousand bushels of good corn, three hundred and sixty bushels of wheat, and some two hundred bushels of barley, from his homestead. Charley thinks if a man has got the sand he'll get there, in Nebraska, as that was all he had to start with.*— [Hamilton County Nows.

The groat wheat-producing states were more numerous, The product in bushels for thirteen states and one territory is thus given Pensylvania ..20,043,800 Ohio 884,000 Michigan. . 20,011,000 Indiana 28,447,800 1linois Wisconsin., . .

One of the most remarkable facts revealed in the above statoment is the astonishing agricultural progress gnade in the state of Kansas, '\‘hnt state stands second in the corn-producing column and sixth in the wheat-producing list. In the whole catalogue of states Kansas stands third in the value of its agricultural products, though in population it is tho eighteenth stato. The value of its agricultural pro- ducts in proportion to population far ex- copt Nobraska, with which it stands on nearly the same plane. In 1880 there were engaged in agricultural pursuits in Kansas 206,080 persons. This number may have been increased in 1883 to 225,000 persons. Tho wheat and corn_crops alone, at the prices which provailed in that state for tho year, woro worth 8284 per capita to ench person ongaged in agriculture. If the product of all agricultural industries of the state were added to the bove, as wellas of all other occupations, it is doubtful if the result would not show that no peoplo ever enjoyed a greater prosperity than those of Kansas in 1883, The commerce of such a stato is worth striving for, and has been and is the foundation of the prosperity and won- derful growth of a dozen considerable cities. e —— For Thront Diseases and Coughs, Browx's Broxentat Trociks, like all reudly {mitated, ~ Z%c Sold only n bowe: oty s ST, VAL'S ARTISTIC FAVORS.

Valentines have never been prettier, moro artistic or more tasteful* in execu- tion than they are this sengon, A few of tho lace-paper, Cupid’s bower, loves and doves variety still appear to remind us of the past and to afford us a standard of comparison by which to measure the beautios of the present. But the greater number of valentines offer petorial effects of color and design which make them valuable as works of art. Many of them are the work of our best artists, Those, partioularly, which are issued by Prang, although very unequal in point of origi- nality, Aubiunt and grace of treatment, aro all produced by well-known workers in the tield of artistic design, The great valentine of the jcar is one about a foot long and half & foot wide in a two-inch border of plush, It is a repfoduction on satin of ', 8. Church's picture in opaqus water-color secn here mn last year's Water-Color xhibition called ““The Lion in Love.” The picture shows a delicate green landscape with limpses of blue sky through the tree- boughs and a space of light turf in_the foreground. At the right, on a slight clevation, sits a young girl with long fair hair, clothed in a white, semi-clagsical garment. On the left is seer: the crouch. ing figure of a large twany lion. About the lion’s neck is a long rosy chain which stretches across the open space of turf and is held by the fair haired maiden on the right. Across the top of the plush border and falling in a fringed end on the left is a satin ribbon held by a silver seahorse, at the right knotted at the left hand upper corner and bearing the words “Saint Valentine’s Day” and some lines by John Vance Cheney, the well-known poet. This valentine may be had with order and ribbons of either olive-brown or light blue, either color harmonizing well with the general effect of the picture, 1t is advertised by the publishers at $10, retail price, but many dealers offer it for $0.50, Many pretty valentines, with groups of flowers reproduced from water-celors bordered with wide puffings of pink, blue, lilac and white satin,imay be had at 83, $2.60, $2, and $L50. A large Prang valentine has on one side a repro- duction of a well-known watef-coler by C. Y.
