THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, WORTH OF TRE SALINE LAN The Special Committee's Report to tho House, Which Was Adopted. STAR CHAMBER CITY POLITICS Beeret Work of the Citizens' Commit- tee of Twenty-one—Supreme Court Doings—Other News of the Capital City, 1FROM TIHE BER'S LISCOLN BUREAT.] The committee appointed by the house to visit the salt basin and saline lands be- tween the city proper and West Lincoln have performed the services assigned them and yes y made their report m the house at the morning session. The report is valuable, especially in its esti- mate of the land sought to be obtained by the Nebraska Stock Yards company. The reading of the report was listened to with close attention by the house, and at its close the report was received and adopted. No effort was made after the report was received to get a vote.@'The following is the report of the committee: We the undersigned committoe appointed to examine the south half of section’ 15, the northeast quarter of section 22 and the' east hialf of the northwest quarter of section all in township 10, north of range 8, cast of the 6th principal meridian, in Lancaster county, Nebraska, being the same is pro- posed for sale in house roll 153, ha d"the under consideration and beg e to make the following report, to-wit: The south Lalf of said section 15, with the exception of about fort 3,18 a1l valuable land, the north part is as fine, beautiful, rolling land as is in the country, the south part fine, level, bottom land. Oak Creek runs through it, furnishing plenty of water, and also very valuable water- power for running hinery, The forty acres mentioned above are said to contain excellent clay products suitable for the man- cturing of brick, tile, terra cotta, ete, he_three eighty'acre tracts mentioned in section (22) are alf fine bottom lands with the exception of about fitty acres low or basin land, and is thought” by some to contain 50me salt springs or basins, ‘I'he basin lanas on this part are also con- sidered valuable for clay products. On the north of and adjoining said south half of sec- tion 15 is the fown site of West Lincoln, 1n which lots 25x142 feet are selling for from £300 to §700 each; on the northwest end, and cornerin said tract of land, the price of land s quoted at from $700 to $1,000 per acre, and taking all things into considera- tion as compared wita other lands in the vicinity we beliave that the above described Jands are worth on average §560 per acre for the entire tract, Mr. Heimrod, one of the members of the committee, made the following addenda to the report: “I signed this report agreeing with my colleagues with only the exception that I believe the entire tract of 560 acres of saline lands are worth not more than §500 per acre.’ SECRET POLITICAL WORK The secret political schemes having in view a citizens’ ticket to be dictated by a committee of twenty-one, and which the entire community is expected to swallow without a voice in its composition, is making slow progress at present. Attor- ney Ryan, to whom was entrusted the se- lection of the twenty-one men for the job, has made his selection, and a secret meeting of the committee was held Tuesday evening. In fact, everything thus far has been of the star chamber order from the sending out of “the first circulars to the making of the committee and the sessions of the committee. The chiof bugler of the law and order league, F. W. Lewis, has planned tho secret service with a good deal of skill and the press of the city has mnot been able to give many facts to the public except when the State Journal, in an exuberance of spirits over its new po- sition in the bolting line, has issued its edict that it won't attend primaries if 1t can’t have its way and won't play any way if Mr. Roggen or his friends are rec- ognized. In this connection it is well to state that 1t comes with much directness that one of the proprietors of the Journal company sent one emis- sary _to certain saloon men and amblers, luylnfi down the law aw to them that it they did not come into the Journal camp and help defeat E. P. Roggen, that he, the Journal pro- rietor, would hamself hire a private de- ctive and make it hot for them the nomm% two years. Of such stuff as this present reformers are builded. When men get afraid of their own pnrt{, ard bolt before a ticket of kind isin the field, such proceedings follow close in the wake. At the Tuesday evening meeting of the committee of twenty-one no action was taken ha{ond adjournin to meet Thursday evening. The meet- fng was held in Mr. Ryan’s offic and Mr, " A.J. Sawyer, a disaffected republican, did most of the talking. The meeting was very secret, but the Bk was en- abled to distinguish the following citi- zens as members of the committee: Aus- tin Humw:re& H. J. Sawyer, O. P. Di 8, 0. W. ‘ebster, John Fi uperintendent McConiff, Jacob Nqrth, am D. Cox, J. H. Miller, Seeretary F. W. Lewis, 8. A, Watson, E. T, Hartloy, H. J. Whitmore, E. H. Chapin, C. C. Munson, G. B. Skinner, Chas. Atkinson. The political complaxion of this list of gentlemen is easily distinguished and only the stalwart Journal can appreciate it from a republican point of view, while the average citizen cannot read the list without smelling roasting chestnuts.

Woe visited the house of one of our labor- ing friends, at his request, to teil him there, in the evening, what he dared not lose time from his work to hear, about the west. Weo found him located in a tumble-down shanty, 1n the cess-pool and malaria district. But one chair was to be seen in the room within, rough stools oceupying the place of chairs, and a large dry goods box, covered with oil cloth, being utilized for a table.

Famrsury, Neb.,, March 24.—[Corre- spondence of the Beg.]—The assessors of the county held their meeting last Satur- day, and judging from the published schedule of values upon which the as- sessment is to be made, property is very cheap. If a person who lives in states where property is listed at somewhat near its actual value would read the stat- ute of Ncbraska, which expressly says that property shall be assessed at its cash value, and then should be told the prices at which property is really assessed in the state, he would naturally thiok that real estate was dirt cheap and personal property ef wonderfully poor@quality. There should be a reformation in the method of assessing, and that soon, 1t 18 a cool day when an addition to our hoomm)f city 18 not lad off, and very chilly indeed when several new buildings are not commenced. I think there are at least forty residences now being built and I hear every day of others to be built. The insurance business is made quite lively and the several agents of whom deponent is one, is wrestling for their share. Another stone pavement was putdown last week. Mr. Ingraham does not pro- pose to be outdone bs his neighbors and 80 built the same kind of pave in front of his jewelry store thut some others have. We hope the moyvement will become general and stone walks be built in front of all business houses, Uncle Sam is getting economical and the signal service flags are not displayed as usual, It is all right as it gives the old man with the rheumatism a chance to forecast the weather as he used to do before the government drove him out of business. Abraham Thiessen who went to Russia and was arrested, has been heard from at last. Our .mnister to Russia, Lathrop, writes to C. B. Letton, esq., Fairbury,that he had taken considerable interest in his case, and that the Russian government had ordered, on the 26th of January last, that he be expelled from the country, never to return. When Thiessen left Russia, nrlurinl.lly, he was under arrest. He escan nd made his way to America and abjured his allegiance to the Russian fionrnment. which was a great offense. is ascape will be a narrow one and he will be very likely to stay out of the clutches of the bear hereafter.

Wages | FIELD AND FARM. Hints on Spring Work in the Garden. Philadelphia Record: With the ad- vent of spring begins the work in the garden, and the supply of vegetables and luxuries depends apon the fertility of the | soil and the care bestowed. Some plants are hardy and may be put out early, but nothing is gained by haste in attemping to force plants that delight in warmtn, unless the forcing process be attempted ugder favorable conditions. It must be kept in view that frosts may come at any time, even as late as June, and it is not safe to put out large crops of vegota- bles before the middle of May. Oniou lettuce, kale, radishes, spinach, pes cabbage and carly po tatoes muy take t| risk of injury from frost us soon as the ground shall be warm enough to germi- nate seed. The onion crop is one that should aiways go i carly, as it thrives best when the season is not too warm,and not only endures quite a severe frost, but the crop keeps well in winter also. Noth- ing ean be gained by transplanting egg plants, tomato plants, or melons before warm weather, as any slight check given them will be materially fel! iring the vhole growing season, dwarf peas are best for an sup- ply, and require no support to hold the vines;off the ground, but they do not compare with the taller Kinds in flavor or in quality. Early beets, carrots and parsnips can be put in as soon as the round shall be in proper condition. sparagus is usually the first vegetable of the season, but 1t cannot be secured until a well grown and permanent bed shall have been established. Limabeans, sugar corn, beans, melons, turnips: squash and egg-plants must be classed as sum- mer crops, as they are not planted until the ground 1s well warmed “and all_dan- ger from frost 18 over. What is mostly required for & garden is a fine soil, not simply that which is plowed or spaded, but one which is either harrowed or raked until not a clod n be seen, and the deeper the fine the better. In using manure that which is thoroughly decomposed is best, but expe heed gardners make use of well-rotted com- vost, assisted by super-phosphate (one bag to a garden one-fourth of an acre in extent), and the rows are so laid off as to permit of the crops being easily worked by a one-horse cultivator, but if the hoe be used 1 preference the rows may be closer together. All yonng vegetable are easily smothered or starved by grass and weeds, and for that reason the gar- den must be kept very clean and well cultivated. Weeds must not only be kept down but kept out, destreying them as soon as they shove their tops out of the ground; the same may be said of grass By so doing much labor will be suved later in the season. early Seasonable Hints and Suggestions. Buttermilk and creamery skim milk, though excellent food for hogs, should be fed only as a part of the ration, as the hogs will be compelled to drink large quantities in order to provide themselves with a sufficiency. The better plan is to allow a ration of ground grainin con- nection with milk. Grass may Dbe seeded upon oats this spring, and it should be done as early as possible, 1n order to allow the young plants a good start before dry weather. The main difficnlty in the way of secur- ing a stand is the failure to put in the sced properly. It should be lightly har- rowed or brughed Iin. It is much better to sell off all the sur- plus stock than to attempt to feed too many on a short supply of food. The extra animals require food for the sup- port of their bodies, without gaining, which supply of food should f to the urpose of increasing the weight of a ewer number. 4 1t is now generally admitted that no road can be qgrfuct that is not well un- derdrained. Throwing the dirt to the centre turns off the surplus surface water, but that which goes down should be car- ried off underground instead of partially evaperating from the surface. In order to show what a sheep may at- tain in weight it may be mentioned that a two-year-old grade Lincoln wether was recently slaughtered in England. Its live weight was 433 pounds; carcass, 304 pounds; loose fat, 34 pounds; skin, en- trails, blood, etc., 90 pounds; waste 6 pounds. It you have a spare piece of ground sow oats and peas together as food for the cows. It makes excellent green ma- terial, grows quickly, and can be cut at any time when hig‘: enough. Do not turn stock upon it to graze, but cut and carry it to the barnyard for them. If plants be crushed when frozen the leaves will wilt and turn dark, Thisis also applicable to grass when it is cov- ered with frost, and stock should not be turned upon pasture until the sun shall be well up, as the trampling of the frozeun plants is injurious. In buying young trees it is best to se- lect those that nave a large supply of roots, long and branching. The roots may be shortened before putting the trees in the ground. Trees with tops not too heavy, with large roots, seldom require staking. There is nothing better for fatteninga wether than to feed it plenty of hay, with a ration of one part ground oats and two parts cornmeal, given twice a day, with a few sliced turnips for an oo- casional change. March lambs are considered eq'l{. but they require careful feeding to bring them into market in time to secure the best priccs. They soon learn to eat, and grow rapidly if giwen all they can con- sume, It is not the severe cold that kills the small fruit vines but the alternate freez- g and thawing. Hence the advantage of a wulch, which protects from sudden changes of temperature. A distance of thirty feet apart each way is suitable for apple trees and eigh- teen feot each way for peach trees. The young trees should be kept well trimmed and given good cultivation. Cut away all the suckers from the trees and get the orchard in shape. There is nothing so unsightly as an orchard con- taining suckers around the base of each tree. 1t is claimed that the flesh of hogs that are allowed to find their food by hunting acorns and roots in the forests is super- jor to that of the best fed hogs kept in ens, The Dorking fowl is now beginning to receive more attention than formerly.

Potato bugs will eat egg plants if the potato vines be not plentiful. sometimes eat tomato plants, Sow your tomato séed in boxes as early as possible, as there is now but little time to lose with early plants. April is the best month for hatching out young ducks for market, selling them in June. Wheat, corn, barley, beans, linseed, hemp seed, rape seed, crushed frosh bones, mustard seed, clover and green cabbage are essentials in poultry feeding. There are nice-looking cows in many herds that daily rob their master. 'I'his can only be prevented by taking the weight of each cow's milk morning and evening. If hens be at liberty 100 are enough for an acre, but if contined of course an acre will afford room for a much larger num- ber, In this case each flock of ten or twelve hens will require a house eight feet square—say 200 fowls on an acre. Most kinds of fruit trees thrive best on rolling land. Hardy grapes do well on almost any soil with alittle care. Sandy ridges nre best adapted to their growth, but sand and leaf mold mixed with under- drain clay will produce large vines and tine yields of fruit.
