'his bill proposes to take from Burt, W'Y"' and Dakota counties portions of the rritory of those respective countles, and form thein togetner with whathas been known Blackbird county, into a new county, to ‘Thurston county. y objections are these: First, “this bill is unconstitutional. Sea %e following. Constitution of the state of ebraska. ARTICLE X—COUNTIES. Sec. 3 (Division.)—No county shall be divided, or have any part stricken therefrom Without first submitting the question to a wote of the people of the county, nor unless a majority of all the legal voters of the eounty voting on the question vote for same. Bec. 8. (Same,)—There shall be no territory stricken from any organized county unless a ajority of the voters living in such territory all petition for such division. No vote of the people residing on the por- tlons set off from Burt, Wayne and Dakota counties has been taken, and none 1s proyvidea for in this bill. othing has been presented tending to show at the people have had any opportanit gh;wwr to give expression to their senti- ents with reference to Mm’f set off and made part of a new county. They had never petitioned forit, On the contrary, remon- strances have been presented from large numbers against being stricken from their tive countles. 'his bill, therefore, in this respact, is a pal- pable violation of the above quoted provi- slons of the constitution. Second, The bill 18 unconstitutional for his reason: See the following: Constitu- ion of the state of Nebraska. ARTICLE X—COUNTIES, Scetlon 1, (Area.) “Nonew county shall Do formed or established by the legislature which will reduce the county or counties, or elther of them, to a less area than 400 square iles, nor shall any county be forwed of a ess area.” 1t will thus be seen that any county to be oreatod must have at least 400 Square miles of torritory. ‘The only portion of the proposed < county of Thurston which is open to settle- ment 'Is comprised within the limits of about !hlrt{ llilllru miles, being that part of the Omaha Indian reservation which lies west of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha rauroad, and the only portion on which the Indian title has been extinguished. 'Uhis ’!olllpllfl's all there is out of which to form Thurston co\lnlr but in order to bring the new county within the provisions of the'con- stuntion declaring that every county to be formed must have 400 square miles in area, the. bil " proposes " to-- take " the whole of the Omaba and Winnebazo reservation. _'Lhis cerfainly is not the intent and meanin of the coustitution. The intant and meaning is that tiere shall be 400 square miles of territory which is open to settlement, which can be bought and sold, and over which county government can be established and have control. It mustbe a county for putp ‘Lhere must ba_county {ssioners or supery 4 Junty officers - There must be There should be at it an area of 400 square miles to contribute to a revenue for the support of the county. lhe act of 1855, defining tne boundaries of Blackbird county, has remained entirely in- operative and without effect to this day. It has nover been recognized or treated as a county, The act wus useless for the reason shat the eounty could not be organized and operated, becauso it was an Indian reserva- tlon. ‘The territory had no countrol over it for the coliection of revenus and general ad ministrative purposes. It has been set forth by the supporters of £his bili that the laws which added those por- tlons to Burt, Wayne and Cuming counties, which this bill vroposes now to take away, were unconstitutional. ‘Nl answer to that fs this: Tnese laws have remained in foree to this time, they have never been repealed, and they have never been declared uneconsti- tutional b{ the courts, which alone are in- trusted with the power of passing upon the gonstitutionality of laws, They must there- fore be regarded and treated as constitu- lobal, Furthermore, their constitutionality has never been questioned until it was pro- to organize this new county of ‘I'hurs- m ‘F'o ehange the relations or the people these counties now, 1 not in the irection of public To umm{. or to strip a county of a portion of &'flr ory, without the gonsent of the peo- ey, living thereon, and without the consent & majority of the 'mwle of tho county, is blie wrong which should n‘{vfi be same- ined by law, besldes being in disregard of eonstitutional provisions. 1 took up this bill with a desire to see my way 1 to approve it, but the more I have sxamined it the more ILave been contronted with insurmountable difficuities and the more I have been eonvinced that it Is in di- rect violation of the constitution, I therefore withhold from 1t my apnfo\-nl. Aprilb, 1857, OnN M, THAYER, THE APPORTIONMENT BILT. ‘The governor neither signs nor vetoes the representative and senatorial apportionment llows it to become & law by lapse ith the following endorsement: : DEPARTMENT, LINCC Neb,, April 5, 1857, 1 file herewith, the secretary of state, house roll 6, “An_act to district the state into senatorial and representative districts, and for the ap- vortionment of senators and representatives, and to fix the number of the same, and peal secttons one and two of chapter five of the compiled statutes of Nebraska.” 1 liave been asked to withhold my approval from this bill on the eround of allezed irreg- ularities in connection with it, after it had passed both Liouses. It eame to me bearing upon its face strict conformity to the consti- tution and the laws thereunder, being prop- erly certified to by the officers of the respect- ive houses. In my judgment, [ am uot at liberty to go behind their record. I am convinced that this bill inflicts vary great injustice upon Adams and Saunders countles, and possibly upon some_others, but I have not had time to investigate the matter. If I should veto this bill [ would in- flict a very great wrong upon the people of a far greater portion of the state I “therefore do not file any objections to this bill, and it becomes a law without my signature. Jon~ M, THAYER. THE CITY ELECTION, ‘The democratic victory In the city elcction has been a cause of great rejoicing the past tweunty-four hours in the ranks of the Bour- bons, and_they picture great success in the fature, They hate now & democratio mayor and a majority of the council opposition, and e machinery will undoubtedly be put. in operation to make the county demoeratic the coming fall. ~ One republican, in the face of defeat, was holdini up his hands and return- ing thanks that they had elected the ceme- tery trustee, which insured them at least decent burial. The majority of republicans view the field with omens of ill luck for tie tuture, and democrats are claiming that with the assistance of _their friends, the bolters, that the county ticket in the fall is within reach. The prohibs nearly lost their identity in their efforts to help clect a license saloon democrat, and leaders of that par wondering what struck them. — The vote was equally divided and they expect notrouble from the democratic mayor, Yes- terday Mr. Roggen appeared in court to pay a fine for hitting Webster, and Webster ap- eared at the same time and withdrew the arge.

Farm, Ficld and Stockman: Professor Sanborn, of the Missouri agricultural college in experigients at rious dist- auces apart, and also with different num- bers of grains in the hill, finds that the best average was obtained by thick rather than thin planting, and this tallies h the experience of the most practical plantersin the west. In check sowing four fect eight inches apart each way and three good plants to each hill being the rule, flour plants would give a larger yield, but the cars would be smaller and the cost of husking would be somewhat greater. The results would he some- what greater. The results obtained by Professor Sanborn, as related by him, were as follows: Six rows of corn, about sixty rods to the fllvlv were planted 4x4 feet, four plants to the il Six rows of corn, about sixty rods to the flr‘v were planted 4x2 feet, four plants to the hill. Six rows ot corn, about sixty rods to the row, were planted 4x3 feet, three plants to the hill. S1x rows of corn of about sixty rods to the fl‘l} were planted 4x2 feet, two plants to the hill, At harvest the hills were carefully counted and stood in numbers according to the fol- lowing table: irst sIx rows had 3,600 plants standing, J08 plants standing. iird six rows had 4,500 plants standing. urth six rows had 3,132 Yl:mls standing, ' leld of first six rows was 1194 pounds of per acre, 217 or 5! 1 of second rows was 1600 pounds of [$: Der acre, 2 Yield of thir ears: per acre or4 Yield of fourth six rows was 1160 pounds ot cars; per acre 2117, or 50.2, If there is any difference in the qual ity of the land it was in favor of the first six rows. The variety of the corn was the Thompson, a variety of average size. ‘The year was well known to have been a very poor corn year and one not favora- ble'to thick plantng. The ground is an upland soil, rolling and inclined to be dry. Itis the poorest tillage field we have on the farm. was 1504 pounds of Two Wagons with One Team. Team_help is often scarce, and even if not it is best to use it with as great economy as possible. It is a great waste of time to ep a strong, able team standing idle while men are loading and unloading. By having two wagons this loss may be avoided, and the amount of work be nearly doubled with little extra expense. With a little ealeulation, aided by experiment, it will be found what number of teams, wagons, and men will work together with least loss in drawing out manure or bringing in grain, hay, or other crops. = Seasonable Hints and Suggestions, Corn that is in the least degree affected by rust should never be used. Give the cows warm stables, but do not forget to have the air pure. Do not forget that cats are very fond of young chicks, ducks and turkey A good deal of the peculiar mutton taste is taken out of 1t when mutton is cured. To kill out the cut-worms plow the ground soon enough to allow the frost to benetrate. Sow some radish and kale for your poultry as soon as possible, and give the fowls frec range upon it. A gill of hnseed meal fed daily to cach cow or horse will keep the bowels in good condition and greatly promote the health. There is nothing to prevent the farmer from experimenting. In that way he will learn more about his own farm than can be taught him by others. Only fresh eggs should be used for hatching purpo: When eggs are stale the chicks do not hatch 1 the time due, and often they die in the shell. When cleaning the perches of the poultry house it is necessary to apply the mixture of kerosene oil and grease to the under side as well as the top. 1f old hay be cut and moistened before being fed to horses there will be fewer animals suffering from heaves. Feedin dusty materials is usually the cause of the difliculty. It your land is well underdrained you will often be able to plow while your neighbor who may not have underdrained 13 waiting for s ground to ary oft’ before be can begin. A mixture of equal parts of red pepper and Scotch snuft thrown into rat holes will cause the vermin to leave. Rats soon become suspicious of poison, and the mixture easily frightens them. All food cooked for stock 1s more easily assimilated than when raw. It is only @ question of cost in cooking. Roots cooked and thickened with ground grain make an excellent mess for all kinds of stock. Manuring land by plowing under some kind of green crop, such as miiiet, buck- wheat, dats or peas, should be the object of every farmer. Clover is also excel- lent, and lime should be freely used at the same time. Do not try to keep geese unless all the conditions are favorable. Geese may be kept at a very small cost or they may en- tail cost according to circumsts ; pond and pasture will enable them to secure their tood with but little aid. 1f the seed is good the cutting of pota- toes to pieces with two eyes should give good vesults. In cutting always endeavor to Jeave as much of the tuber to the eyes as possible, us it serves as plant food in the enrly stages of growth, Some of the garden crops are very hardy and can stand a hght frost. On- ions, peas, beets and lettuce, if sown in rows carly, or as soon as the warmth of the ground vermits, will make good growth before some other crops are put n. Bees do not work as well in a hive ex- posed to the sun. In midday, when very hot, all work on the inside, such as comb building and storing honey has to be suspended. Sometimes combs melt down and the brood dies in the heat of the sun. A grape vine arbor is considered an excellent place for the bee-hive, as it protects against the sun in summer but should be thick enough to serve as a ind-1 in winter. In very cold the hive should be placed in the eellar, Lambs coming in this month are not too late for the early prices if the cwes be lughly fed, so as to provide all the milk required, As soon as the lambs will eat give them plenty of ground oats and keep them well sheltered from storms and severe cold. To secure good seed oats fill a large wash-tub two-thirds full of water and pour in half a bushel of oats at a time. Skim off all the oats that do not sink to the bottom. Draw oft the water and dry the seed, and the chances will be that every seed will sprout, As s00n as your young tomato plants becowe too thick in the box or hotbed transplant some of them to cold frames or thin out the plants. If they grow very tall it is no objection, as the tomato is a plant that can be put in deof ground leaving only & small portion of the top above the surface. The cheapest hog food is said to be peas and sweet potatoes. The potatoes are boiled and pea-meal added. This claim, however, depends on the section of country and the price of corn. Where sweet potatoes are easily grown, how- ever, there is no food !gat excels that crop for fattening every class of stock.

The result is that the disease is gradually diminishing. When placing eggs under a hen use the thermometer. After the eggs have been in the nest four or five hours lay the thermometer among the eggs under the hen for a few minutes,then quickly with- draw it and look for the record. If less than 103 degrecs the hen does not impart suflicient heat. Hens vary in giving heat to the eggs, and some of them can- not hatch out a full brood. If you wish early green food before the grass crop is ready, especially if cattle are confined, make a small plot very rich with well-rotted manure, and sow mar- rowfat peas and oats together. Sow the seed thickly, and cut for use at any time when the material is high enough for that purpose. It is excellent for all kinds of stock, and especially for cows and sheep. Oats are usually sown early for a gen- eral crop of seed, but our farmers miss an excellent opportunity in not thickly sowing oats to be cut when in the green stage.
