Farm- ers, therefore, who have good sound fully matured corn, are sure of a good round price before the spring planting time. H. N. Amerman, of York county, raised in the year 1883, 97 acres of corn, average 40 bushels to the acre of wheat, average, 18 buehels of oats average b0 bushels ing the year 8407.50 worth of hogs. J. H. Morgan, of Stanfon precinct, Fillmore county, raised last gnr, 1883, 70 acres of corn, average 40 bushels per acre; 15 acres of wheat, average 16 bush- els; 12 acres of oats, average 37 bushels. The Plattsmouth Journal says parties who have been induced to take tioe claims in western counties complain that they have been badly taken in, Several who have visited their claims, after they were located, have found them worthless. One man who has expended about 870 on his claim says that he would not give fifteen conts for the land if he had a perfect title to it. This is like buying a pig in a bag with the usual results, There are 70,000 bushels of corn in the cribs in Dorohester, and not more than half the crop has been marketed. The Dunn Bros.,, of Gosper county, are among the heavy stock feeders of Western Nobraska. They recently ship- ped 100 head of fat steers, averaging over 1,300 pounds. The Gosper County Citizen says among the lot was the Mas- tadon ox, a native of Nebraska, nine ears old, about six feet and six inches in height, and at prescnt tips the scales at 3,200 pounds, and will when fattened pull down 4,000 pounds. Who can_beat the Gosper county ox! The Dunn Bros. have consumed an enormous amount of corn this winter, and still have an im- mense amount on hand. Kansas has several succesaful cheeso factories and some creameries, At Wichita a dairy of 700 cows was started, and a car load of Holsteins from New York was put in, The stock raiser may have the best of feed and pasture in abundance, and un- less he has a regular and constant supply of pure water to which his animal can have access at all times, he will not have the satisfaction of seeing his herds and flocks uniformly in good condition. An animal ready to die from over-feed or a stolen visit to the feed bin, may be saved by a dose of 4 to 6 uarts of bread yeast. Economical feeding is an important factor in stock breeding. In regard to grinding grain for feeding, it has been shown in every case in which a test has been made that meal is worth about one- third moro than whole grain. The same is true tco of hay, of which 156 pounds fed cut into chaff and fed with meal aro : | equal to 20 pounds fed in its natural con- i | dition, " The Btock Broedoers. The recent annual meeting of the State Stock Broeders' association was import- " |ant in many respects. The exchange of ginionl on different grades of stock and @ P! made in the past year in raising thoroughbred animals, formed the rincipal business of the meeting. Hon. . O. Walker, of Butler county, was re- elected president, and Mr. John R. Harvey, of Otoe county, secretary and treasurer, A resolution was passed that our senators in con, be instructed and our representative be requested to vote for and use all honorable means to sdbure the speedy passage of a bill or other proper measures for protection against such a scourge as pleuro-pneu- monia, A paper on breeding horses, by E. P, Savage, of Custer county, was generally discussed, aud all agreed that the Cleve- 'and Bays and Clyde Norman were the best all-purpose horses, and that the de- mand for heavy horses would never cease, Mr. John R. Harvey, of Otoe county, thought for profit this was pre-eminent- lya hom country, with our high altitude and dry soil, our wealth of over one hun- dred and fift{ native grasses, many of the best of which grow to low: and short to be fed off by cattle, but make the finest. pasture for the horse. Then, with the abundance of the large varieties which the best hay, together with our soil which is peculiarly adapted to rais- ing oats, without which no horse can ever be brought to perfection i form, nor attain the highest point of useful- ness, The paper on Polled Angus cattle, by the same gentleman, was a very full and conclusive artiole, His conclusions were that the Polled Angus cattle wore the best for all purposes, The next annual meeting will be held on the first Tuesday in February, 1885, Virgin 8oil in Webster Connty Next summer's sales says The Argus, will probably exhaust the supply of raw railroad in Webater county. At present there are about fifteen thousand ‘acres of railroad land, the greater portion of it belonging to the B & M. 8t, Joe and U.

The State Wool Growers association,at their annual meeting at Lincoln, declared in favor of the tariff of 1807 on woel. 1t with a yield of about 65,000,000 pounds of wool, to the present number of over 50,000,000, with an annual clip of 300,- 000,000 pounds. This immense increase has given direct and indirect remunera- tive employment to bundreds of thou- sands of hands. The loss to wool growers within the period since the reduction of the tariffi has been in round numbers £15,000,000 and yet T challenge any one to prove that he Tas folt any perceptible reduction in the price of woolen goods.” A preamblo Al resolations wess drawn up tobe forwarded tothe Nebraska delega- tion, asking them to ‘‘use all honorable and legitimate efforts” to bring about an increase of the tariff, There was only one dissenting voice in the meeting. Mr. Levi Todd, a free- trader from away back, declared in favor of every trade and business taking care of itself without protection. One important fact, which was over- looked by the meeting, is that though Australia wool comes in direct competi- tion with the American vreduct in the markets of Bostcn and Philadelphia, it is shipped from that far off country to the markets here as cheap as from any point in western Nebraska, Colorado or Wyom- ing. A few mouths ago ashipper at Cen- “ | tral City published this fact, fortified with the shipping bills of a Boston firm. Such being the case, it would have been more appropriate to petition the railroads fora reXucfion of ¢he tariff than to appeal to congresa for a raise. The officers of the society for the en- suing year are: President, Peter Jansen; vice president, J. F. Hayden of Knlmn{ county; secretary and treasurer, W. H. Barstow of Saline county; directors, Chas. Packer of Jefferson county, Mr. Cropsey of Thayer county, Mr. W. 8. Stocking of Saunders county. The Care of Horses, Prof. Culberson of the state university, Iays down the following rules: 1f a horse has a severe attack of indi- gestion do not let him stand for a day or two in the barn without exercise. If you do, and put him to hard work when you think he has recovered, cholic will be result. Another disease that frequently may be prevented, is spamodic cholic. This is to some extent a nervous disorder, and is brought on by sudden cooling when heated, or by over exertion. Your team is working in a distant field on one of our deceptive spring days. Suddenly there comes a dash of cold rain. The horse is suddenly chilled and attack of colic is the result. 8uc'" a result might }(n prevented by keeping a pair of blan- ots. Take another case: Some team has been standing for some time on the street and is thoroughly chilled. You start home facing a northwester; thermometer at zero; you are in a hurry to get home, the horses are cold enough to be free and you let ‘them go. The rapid motion causes n[l)lid breathing, a rush of blood is sent to the lungs where the cells are filled to their utmost with the intensely cold air, the blood, already cold, is far- ther chilled and accumulates in the lurgs, vroducing congestion and frequently death. Drive with moderation _till ltha blood has begun to circulate free- y The diseaso called thrush, especially where in the hind foot, is caused by the injurious effects of allowing the feet to stand in fifth and decaying ordure. Poultry Farming. The consumption of eggs and poultry increases with civilization. As cities mul- tiply and become populous the demand for these articles of food becomes very great. Almost every country in Europe contributes to the supply of London and Paris. During the past foew years mil- lions of eggs have been imported into New York and other eastern cities, A large proportion of them have come from Canada, but the importation of eggs from the countries of northern Europe is steadily increasing, The price of poultry and eggs increases much faster than that of almost any articles produced on farms. There is no better country in the world for producing poultry and eggs than the United States, The climate is very fa- vorable. The water is generally excel- [lent. Materials for shelters are cheap. The facilities for transportation are al- most a8 good as could be desired. The natural vegetable productions required for food are abundant. They include graes, clover, wild fruits, the seeds ot numerous plants, and some small nuts. Asa grfln-i)roduning country it has no superior, It is gomewhat strange, under these circumstances, that we should im- port eggs or that they should be at a high rice. Still, during the present winter, @ quantities of foreign eggs have been consumed in eastern cities, while in western towns a dozen of eggs has brought more money than a bushel of potatoes or oats, Daring the past few years reports of mall | they had remained continuously in the the success of several poultry farms have been published. Parties have succeeded in koaKin a thousand hens and keeping them uihy. T! Beir success has been mainly due to keeping but a compara- tively amall number of hens in one build- ing and in allowing them a wide range. One farmer in England tried the experi- ment of keeping ten hens on each acre of land he cccupied, and which was chiefl, devoted to grasi ng'rlur[mu. He foun that by enriching the ground with the droppings of the fowls it would carry more atock than before, and he was ablo to derive two incomes from the same land. The fowls were sheltered at night and during storms in small hous were supplied with wheels so that they could be easily moved. is practice was to move each house the distance of a rod each day. By that means he brought them to fresh gasss and prevented an ac- cumulation droppings. By moving the chicken-house but a short distance the fowls return to them as readily as if same place, Ample provision was made for supplying water as well as for venti. tion. The houses were thoreuhly cleaned every day. The food, aside from the fresh vegitables, was mostly obtained in the market, and was ely produced in this country In addition to grain and vegetables the hens were supplied with scraps of meat and cheap fish, The .‘?h aro sent to market every day, and as the; a8 soon as they were iron, The west is evidently the best location for poultry-farming, as it is for grain and meat production, The production of poultry and egge can be combined with stock-raising and un&n-fmvrmz. The fowls can be kept in small houses in pas- of a size for the ) after it is cut they mA'i be removed to the grain-fields, where they will pick up what is scattered on the ground. Many kinds of food that are very valuable to fowls ave easily raised. Aln::s them are sunflower seed, buck wheat sorghum seed. A liberal amount of vThN- should also be provided. Cabbages, tures while the grainis growing, and|A onions, eress and roots, should be raised for feeding during the winter. There is no oceasion for ornamental or espensive buildings for fowls. They should have a tight roof and be well lighted and ventil- ated. 'The floor may be of clay or com- mon earth, It should be higher than the surrounding ground so that dryness may be insured, If kept covered with dry sand it will bo clean and the drop- pings can be readily removed. They are as valuablo for fertilizing as guano, Fow)s kept in the manner suggested will require close attention, but this is called for in department of husbandry. The care of poultry may be intrusted to per sons who cannot hard work in the field. There is ve little hard labor connected with feeding fowls, raising chickens or collecting eggs. Give the Girls a Chance, Evory farmer's daughter should be in- terested in and understand keeping the farm accounts, and be able to write a practical business letter (without N. B.) Fathers and mothers should take a little more pains to get the girls interested in farm life; in its profits and pleasures, as well as hard work and unromantic drud. gery. Get them to raising chickens, ducks, goese, or anything they take a fancy to; not the ordinary mongrels, but got them started with choice fowls from some of the best strains, and see how quickly they will take delight in it and make it a matter of no small profit at the same time, Let them buy and sell and traffic on their own account; it won't hurt them, but will do them good and make them more independent and able to take care of themselves. Itisa sad mistake to keep girls from acquiring actua! business knowledge, such as can only be obtained by pereonal participa- tion in business transactions, and which will make them more fit for any useful sphere in life.—[ Western Agriculturalist. e — Let These Things be Considered. Thousands of men die every day who could be saved. Prejudice is mainly to blame for this loss of life- If it were believed that the sum of disease may cer- tainly be reduced by physic, much would be gained. And yet the proposition is very simple; if you take vutadaily more impurities than is daily generated, you will soon be rid of impurities. The effect of this wise practice is soon seen in Bilious, Liver and Kidney troubles. But it is equally of value in head and brain af- fections; in Pleurisy, Pneumonia, Apo- plexy, and Paralysis. In chronic and acute Rheumatism, and in all affections of the bowels, this prin- cipal soon relieves and cures, when the medicine used is BRaNvrETH'S PILLS. Yes, when all other means and medi- cine have failed to relieve from pain, these pills have cured, by taking impur- ities from the bowels and blood, and thousands of men and woman now place Buaxprers's Prots among the bleasings of mankind. o The Philosophy of Force. Detroit Free Press, He sat by the stove in a Michigan ave- nue grocery store for full twenty minutes before speaking. He spread out his legs to encircle as much as possible, drew his sleeve acro:s his note at regular intervals, and there was a strong smell of burning bootleather as he finally looked up at the grocer and asked: ‘‘Can you tell me why the isinglass in your stove is not con- sumed by the heat!” ‘I guess its be- cause you keep all the heat off!” was the sneering reply. ‘‘You area liar, sir, and you say that to excuselyour ignorance! Now, thea, what pressure does water ex- ert on the human body at a depth of sixty feet!” “I'll exert a pressure on fiur body if you call me a liar again!” @ grocer laid hold of the man to daw him to the door, but he caught a Tartar and was flooped on his back. *‘I exerted a force of about one eighth horse power to accomplish that,” said the old man, as he knelt on the prostrate body. ‘‘A dead blow of twenty pounds from my fist would flatten your nose, while two pounds additional would crack your skull.” “Git off'n me or I'll slay you.” **I now seize your hair with a clutch equal to the grasp of a hand lifting fourteen pounds of iron, and I bump your head on the floor with a force equal to nine pounds.” *'Let go m, ha'r!” yelled the grocer as he kicked and struggled. ‘‘You are now exercising a forca equal to eight pounds to the square inch,” said the old man as he bumped him again, *‘but it is useless. I shall now exercise a force equal to the clutch of forty-eight grasshoppers to shut off our wind, and I win then administer a ick equal to the force necessary to upset acord of four-foot wood.” When the grocer got up the man was across the street. *‘Police! police!” shouted the victim. *‘You exhausted six gallons of oxygen In the first yell and five in the second,” called the scientist, **but it was simply wasted, I will now make off at one-quarter the speed exercised by an antelope in outrunning a lion, Good-by, sordid flesh-pot, good-by." ——— Beats the World. This is what H. C. Hoberm: Marion, Oblo, says: *Zhoma beats the world. Sold nine bottles yesterday and to-day, One man cured of sore_ throat of eight years stauding. Is splendid for rheumatis.” From Bell's Lite, I found Barcaldine occupying the box I had seen before tenanted by Bertram and Kingor: d in deference to the great value and repute of the illustrious new comer the interior had been newly Elddud. Close by also, was a new iron ouse for his groom to sleep in, as it was not deemed advisable that a treasure worth 8,000 sovereigns should be any di- stance off the stud-groom's house without having a constantattendant. I had been all the morning looking over matured stallions, and after this a thoroughbred horse just out of training always looks at hus worst, is not the bloom of the trainer's art about him, and without the roundness that isjbrought about by high feeding, rest and idleness a horse looks all shades and anzles. Thus a first look at Barcaldine now suggests a great, fine young hunter in the raw, but the eye can quickly detect all the magnificent ints that as rule make up the great race big horse is Barcsldine. He hands 1§ high, is a good hard bay, witb black lege, with an intelligent ead, much finer and more characteristic ofblood than he might have had from his Melbourne descent, and it is set on neat- ly to a long, powerful neck, which meets tremendous shoulders, not heavy, but wide, and the withers prominently high, with great depth behind the shoulders. tall’ jockey must have looked well on him, while a short-legged little fellow could scarcely urred 5 him in the | vight Jiaon.e His hips are a bit high, jwide from one to the otner, his loins :‘i‘d “‘i' uarters are wide mflh to flh i for & wagon horse and g enougl to please the most exsoting in race-horse conformation. He had chapped his hooka, but they were of a corresponding powerful order, and his flat_legs, so_big in bono, ate all in proportion. 1 have certainly never looked over a more power ful race horse than Barcaldine, and I should doubt whether a more powerful one has ever been bred. Quite an unbeaten certificate has Bar- caldine, He won four times as & three- yoar-old, including the Baldoyle Derby and two queen's plates. 1t is well known how his turf life was cut short as a four-year-old, but as a five-year-old he proved himself to be about the best horse of his time, as he beat Tristan twice, won the Orange cup at Ascot, and the North- umberland plate under 9 stone 10 pound. This makes twelve winning races with- out defeat, and there is no horso of the day that can show such a certifi cate.

OREGON'S STRONGJMAN, A Giant Who Smashes Two-Inch Planks Meets Sullivan, Astoria Independent. Our citizens are all familiar with Syl- vester Le Gowriff, a native of France, who has lived in Astoria for some time. Probably no man on this coast has as much muscle power as this giant of strength. In wrestling he has thrown a number of professional wrestlers in San Francisco, aad his wonderful powers of endurance have surprised every one who has seon his exhibitions. Last winter, on a wager, he performed a remarkable feat. Two men seated themselves in chairs, and Le Growriff, grasping the bot- tom back-round of each chuir, hifted one with each hand and set them on a counter three feet high. Not long ago he was making his brags that he could break a two-inch plank with his tist, and & number of gentlemen, anxious to seo this done, tried to find a plank, but unsuccessfully. They produced three boards one inch thick and nailed them together and set them up. Sylvester marched up to the boards and let drive with his fist and the boards were split in several pieces. His fist did not show even a bruise or scratch. We did not know that this wonderful man has the requisite scientific knowledge to cope with a man like Sullivan, but one thing we are certain of: If he ever gets a blow in on Sullivan the great champion of the world will be evicted from this world to the next. Suullivan has published in every city he has visited that he will give $1000 to any man who will stand up to him for f ur rounds, each round to last three minutes, Le Gowriff has accepted the proposition. THE NORTHWEST NEWS. John L. Sullivan, the champion, ar- rived at Astoria yesterday afternoon on the steamer Oregon and was_received by an immense crowd. The exhibition given at Occidental hall was well attended. Everybody wanted to see the champion and, more than that. they wanted to see Le Gowriff stand up before him. After some sparring between members of the combination Le Gowriff and Sullivan made their appearance. Lo Gowriff is a well-built, muscular fellow and is a per- fect giant in strength. In wrestling he has thrown a number of professional wrestlers in San Francisco, and his wen- dertul power of endurance have surprised every one who has seen his_exhibitions, Le Gowriff, when he met Sullivan, ex- hibited a look that showed he had lost hope of being able to stand up the four rounds, and it was well he did so, for he was not then docmed to disappointment. Sullivan simply did a little light sparring for about nineteen seconds and then he drew out his left hand and hit Le Gowriff aslap onthe face that sounded like a meeting between a fog horn and a politi- cal orator, knocking him down and com- pletely out of time, The yells sent up at this feat were terrible. —— Skepticism was routed when the peo- ple knew the virtues of Samaritan Ner- vine.
