MISSOURI PACIFIC PLANS. They Include the Construction of a Line to Crete. TO PARALLEL THE BURLINGTON. For the Grand Army E campy Another Railroad In corporated—The Question of Domain—Supreme Courts Preparing TPROM THE DEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] Tn addition to the movements of the Missouri Pacific at Hastings and plane for northwest extensions from that point, there has been a new start made by the road for an extension of. the ‘branch from thiscity westward. Within the pust month w preliminary survey has been made from this city west to a junction point with the line from Tal- mage to Crete, the junction being made in the western part of this county, west of the county postoffice of Centerville. Mr. M. A. Daugherty, of Crete, who has been laid up for thirty days with a M'nln-n ankle bone, was in Lincoln yes- terday. He has had an importany part in the Cre extension of the Mis- gouri Pacific, and he regards the Mis- souri Pacific to be the aggressive line in railrond construction the coming year., He predicts that the road will uild in twodircctions from Crete the spring: one line dir ; mm.;_r he B, & M. lino u.n;.m.%, and another line northwest into the tile fields of the North Platte. The iron on the Missouri Pacific grade will be laid into Crete in the spring and the grade of the B. & M.’s Crete-Milford cut off is also ady for the iron and the completion of both, Mr. Daugherty is_confident, will give Crete o boom of ]nulmmunulunp rto unknown in its history. New depot buildings there by both roads will be a feature of the improvements. There has been a great deal of active work done of late by the B. & M. towns be- tween Crete and Hastings, to secure a line of the Missouri Pacific between the two points to give them direct air line competition and the impression is pre- vailing that the lrmd will be built. THE G . ENCAMPME] . The wmmnu-an for the “annual en- campment of the Grand Army of the Republic, Department of Nebraska, are actively at work for the gathering that opens in this city the 20th of Februar, On the evening of the 28th the council of administration will meet in the Cap- ital hotel and the regular encampment will be held at Representative hall on the 20th and Ist. he local committce estimate that, at the lowest caleulation, there will be presont from 500 to 600 delegates and representative Grind Army men, and Mayor Franklin, chair- man, of the hotel committoe, has se- cured the following different hotels 1n this city Windsor hotel, $2 to 2., »0 per Capitol hotel, #2; Opell’s hntnl #1.50; Lindell, 81.25 to $1.50 #1.25; Peoria house, St. Charles, How- ETETICe] lifton, $1 per day each.

Opinion by Reese, Ch. J. 1.

Any proceedings instituted by a_foreign railroad corporation to oxercise the right of eminent domain in the condemnation of real estate for the purpose of right of way, are void, and even if prosecuted to atermination, can confer no rights to such real estate upon such corporation. In such case, as soon s it is made to appear that the corporation is not incorporated “‘pursuant to and in accordanc with the luws of this state,” it s the duty of the court wherein the proceeding fng to dismiss the same for want of ju tion. 3. A railroad company organized as poration under the laws of another staf doing business in_ this state, sought to exor- cise the right of eminent domain in the con Jemnation of private property forthe purpose of right of way, aud filed with the county Judge of the proper county, & request for tho sppointment of appraisers to assess the dum. s 10 real estate resulting from the right of thercon. Appraisers were appointed the dumages assessed, From this as- gessment the land owner appealed to the district court. The railroad company ap- peared and presented its petition and afidavit showing that it was a foreign corporation and asking & removal of the cause the circult court of the United ates. An order was made removing the as prayed. Subsequently the land appeared in the district court and tiled Nis wotion for a reinstatement of the cause, which motion wus overruled. He 1.

Afterwards, but before the maturity of the notes secured by the mortgage, A exccuted to C 8 chattel mortgage on the same property to secure u notes for $142, expressly stating in the mort- gage that it wus subject to the mortgage exe- cuted to B. Afterwards A and B sold the horse to D for its full value and applied the proceeds of the sale to the partial payment of A's debt to B. Upon the horse being deliv- ered to D under his purchase, C asserted his mortgage and took possession of the propert for the purpose of foreclosure, when B re plevined it. It was held that the sale of the norse to D by A and B being made in good faith and for full value, effectively foreclosed the title of A as well as thatof C, and that as against A and C, B was entitied fo the prop- erty.

FACTS FOR FARMERS, Dehorning Cattle, * IRVINGTON, Neb., Jan. 24.—To the Editor of the I} To one who has not investigated the matter, the practice of dehorning eattle seems cruel, but after seeing the value and good arising there- from the thought of cruelty vanishes, and one foels as though that to which the give sanction. themselves The benefits derived from dehorning are nwmerous and among the many farmers that have caused the horns to go 1 have as yet to find one that does not endorse it heartily, Now, for instance, farmers who have a limited amount of stable room can, by the loss of horns, cause two or three to be sheltered where but one received the benefit before. Of the 275 that I have dehorned I have not seen any ill effects arise from the operation, Some have been cows whose time 40 calve was from ten days to three months. I have had all grades from a Texas steer down to a two-months calf. My first attempt was during Christmas eck in 1886, I wasat that time milk- ing twenty head of cows. It was very cold, and I expeeted to see some loss of milk, but could not detect anything of the kind. [ predict that inside of ten years the larger proportion of the stock of the United States will be dehorned. It is making wonderful strides in Illi- nois and lowa, also in Missouri. And in the matter of shipping, what an im- provement it is? Any one who has shipped cattle knows if a head of stock once gets d cars, the horns are more than Y getting tangled among the limbs of the other animals in endeavoring to get up. F. B. H. The Perfect Cow, John Gould in Rural New Yorker: That the perfect cow has been discov- ered is very doubtful, for it would imply a general- purpose cow, and all the quai- itics essential to the requirements of animal husbaidry cannot be wrapped up in one hid The dairy and the beef qualities so essentially different, and the results of such totally different perfect cow, consid- in , must always be classed us a “type” distinct in purpose from the beef-producing stock. - No single broed has given as uniformly ex- cellent cows of high performance, but in all dairy breeds there isa type of form and performance, which, if recog- nized and singled out and porpctuulcd by heredity, may result in something like a perfect dairy cow. When we find this type, it may be perpetuated, if in breeding we recognize the fact that the sire must be given equal credit not only in transmitting essential aualities, but in confirming the type as well, and I do not hold to the assumption that merit can be found only in purity of the exist- ing breeds. That the grade may be a good dairy cow is established; and if we arAins R s based on performance, the observing, painstaking farmer may raise his own cows, The dairy cow’s mission will be to produce butter and cheese, and hence she will not be a large animal as meas- ured by the beef standard. The giving of milk makes the dairy cow a creature of beneficence, returning to her owner, in milk and cheese and manure, with nothing held back but actual bod support, all the food combined; wh the beef cow, with fixed habits by breeding, 18 & "nnnvt‘, storing away as largely as possible the better elements her food for fat, flesh and bone form- ing,and only yiclding it up on the block; so that milk and bee! qualities must coutend for mastery if bound up in one animal, and the result must be dis- appointing. That the beef element is antagonistic to the milking habit is a noticeable peculiarvity. The truly beef cow is a small and brief milker, often failing to give support to her calf, and the ultimatum is reached when the beef type actually undermines the function of motherhood, and promises the oblit- eration of a beefy family; while mother- hood in its broadest and most complete sense, is the predominant trait of the dal cow. So I think milk and beef will never be combined, with favorable results. Whether the “perfect cow” will be recognized as a butter cow, or an ani- mal for milk I think admits of no dis- tinction. Milk is valuable ounly for the solids it contains in fats, chcese and sugar, and the cow that produces butter Dhas no power, (nor can it be bred into her)to furnish milk in which the fats largely predominate over the cheese element, or vi rsa. No analysis covering any considerable heriods of time o of the milk of any dairy breed fed upon the rations generally firnished dairy cattle at large, have ever showed that the ratio of butter value by weight was in excess of the normal proportion caseline by weight; and in the case of any herd the normal milk will be as valuable for cheese as for butter, the price of either or the feeding value of the milk not being considered, and the richness of milk is due to the absence, to a greater or less degree, of the usual 88 per cent of water that makes the bulk of milk. Neither is the bulk or weight of milk any criterion of 1ts value, and the value attached to the size of a cow in the fu- ture will be regulated by the amount of solids in her mllk, i. e., the small cow that puts as much’ solids in her twenty- five pounds of milk per day will be held as having superior value overa large cow whose fifty pounds of milk contain only an equal amount of solids. Unless the large cow can show a better per- formance in actual butter, and cheese on proportional rations, the smaller cow must win, as her smaller body calls for a corvespondingly less consumption of food for bodily sipport, As it is money that the farmer wants to realize from _the consumption of so much food b , fashion or sen- timent must give way in the end to per- formance, and we must find out whether or not there is any extra cost in main- taining a large cow as compared with a smaller one to obtain only the same re- sults in fats and cheese, also learn whether the excess of water in the milk of ninty-pound-cows costs food, and, lastly, can the milk of these cows of great milk performunce, by any line of breeding and feeding the ani- mals, be made to exhibit the due pro- I\m'n(mnu‘ amount of solids. Until the o cow with a copious Jlow of milk on proportionate ra- r yield of butter it is (ull\ for the dairyman to delude himself with the idea that quantity of mllk is profitable duirying. unless he, perchance, is a eity milk ven- der, and when the law shall compel him as it will in the very near future, to furnish a milk with 3 per cent of fats, his ideas will change, and he will de- mand a cow that can furnish quality of milk as well as quantity, and the medium sized cow, with perfect diges- tion and with great powers of assimila- tion of food, will be in demand. Unless the large cow can make her milk as valuable in solids the farmer will be compelled, T think, largely to breed the cows for his dairy, for by this plan al can he fix a type, and it can be uc thn.d only by the powers of h y ot alone mu.v. the mother’s side, but the sire’s also, be of prepotent milk type, and thus doubly impress the gual- ities desswred. . This blood, once uiade animals can tions he had done | conspicuous, must not be diluted by the undesirable qualities of “‘scrub,” or the antagonistic cross of 8 heef family. By selecting some of the most noted of the milking famiiies of native stock, and crossing them with some well-known duiry breed teat has u quality of milk to give it value, and then porpetuating the cross by careful selection, bused on per: formance, and “holding fast to the good,’” there is no reason why an intelli- gent, observing mer who reasons from canse to eff and is guided by paying results, may not obtain at smull cost valuable dai tock, Planning Ahead. Correspondence Prairvie farmer: As winter s fast slipping by, eve good farmer will study' out his *“cam paign™ for the coming season in accord- ance with his means, his soil and his supply of manure. Having adopted a plan, matters should be shaped at_once s0 a8 to carry it out to the very letter with a vim that is sure to bring success, Just now every farmer should be exert- ing his utmost efforts to manufactare suflicient manure to fertilize every acre that he may eultivate in a spring crop. If he sees that the barn and stahle sup- lies are not equal to this, & compost ]u‘n]\, ould be started where muck, wood mold, leaves and straw may be piled up together and let remain a few weeks, when decomposition \\lll b aken place to render the ble to the crops. 1f the s still short, use commer you perit heretofore not know what kinds are most suitable for your land, better try special erop fertilizovs. Itwon't puy to furm unless you put your soil in such condition that the probabilities ave in favor of more than an average yicld. Average farm- ing does not pay. Corn requires either av fertile soil or, if the soil be not naturally fertile, that it be h ly ma- nured. It is a crop that dominds great deal of food, and it is not worth while to waste time, labor and seed un- less there be in the sod the necessary plant for a good crop. And as such is the case it will not pay to permit the ambition of having large ficlds of corn to induce a farmer to put in a larger acreage than he can manure well, un- less his land be naturally vich. Inlay- ing out the work for the year the farmer should be particular and not overcrop himself. Heshould know just how much force of man and beast he can put_into the field, and calculate to cultivate thoroughly and well, allowing the seu- 8yn to be unfavorable as it may. Indeavor to get in both oat and corn crops in time, as nine times out of ten it. it is the early crops that give the best yields. Of ¢ourse we would not have the grain go into the soil before it is sufficiently warm 10 encourage the prompt germination of seed; but as soon as the earth is warm enough to cause the seed to sprout and vegetate it should be planted, and no fears need be entertained about late frosts damaging the crop. It is the frosts in the fall that must be avoided, if possible, The seced is an important item to look after, be it corn, grain or vegetables, But fow re- alize the great necessity of attending to this matter, in orderto secure a satis- factor, pdd or to secu either im- provement or perfection in seed or yeg- etable Every farmer should save his own field sceds and the greater part of his garden seeds, buying what garden seeds he may need from seedmen of rep- utation, and not peddlers or grocery store It has well béen said that some s to have notime to de- vote to a study of the characte 8, habits and nature of what they culti- vate, and yet they haye time to lounge at the country store .and talk politics as though the safety of the country de- pended upon their opinions. While [:Lumin;: ahead this class of farmers, at east, should task themselves a little heavier and see if it would not help them through the ‘‘tight times” they are complaining about. Hints and Suggestions. An ignorant farmer is inexcusable in these days, He may have had little op- portunity for school life, but he has the advantage of farmers’ clubs, institutes and agricultural papers, and, if he will, may profit by the combined experience of many others. In this country nearly $3 worth of milk, butter and cheesé together are sold and ‘consumed to every dollar’s worth of beef. What is more there is not much danger that the market for dairy products will ever be less than it is now—it is practically inexhaustible. Sheep should be entirvely secure from’ any exciting causes or liability to be worried by other animals, Lot them have all the sweet hay or corn-fodder they will eat, in adeition to the g rass, and feed half a pint toa pint of corn- meal per day per head, in two feed, va rying occasionally with an equivalent of pens or oats. 1t is well to give some kind of succulent, as turnips or potatoes, once a day, as much as they will eat, in place of one of the feeds of grain. A bull with an ugly temper is danger- ous, whether with horns or not. A Polled Angus bull in Minnesota some time since dashed its owner, an old gen- tleman named Sherwin, to the ground, and then, falling on its knees, butted dly, inflicting such inju that its victim died shortly after huving been rescued. A horse should not be allowed to drink freely immediately after eating. Hon. John M. Russell, ex-secretary of the Massachusetts board of agriculture, tells of seeing <ome horses in France fed on coarse beans, then watered all they could drink and immediately killed and dissected. He observed that a con- siderable quantity of beans had been washed out of the stomach, and some of them were found in the intestines. Asan exchange remarks, profit in meat produc economy in feeding. If we should an _ear of corn either by having it trod under foot and into the dirt, in consequence of feeding more than the hogs will eat, or if we should waste it by overloading the stomach, destroging or impairing digestion, and thus preventing the sys- tem from utilizing what is consumed, it would be so much off the profit, and while one car of corn may not amount to much a good many cars will awount to a great deal. ‘When starting commercial poult too large a scale hens at most, are s ness may figure out nicely on paper there is a certain ambunt of pr absolutely nccessary to success. wln-n the beginner starts on too larg Ver comes up Lo exp orutlu,ul tions, and gives it up gust. omebody advises that in saving seed corn the selected ear be neither husked nor separated from the stalk on which it grew, but the stalk and unhusked ear be hung up in a dry place until the lanting season shall have come round ,llm claim has been adyanced that 50 kept has greater vitality, and pro- duces more vigorous plunts than even | that which is husked and aflterward dried by fire heat.

The average of milk cheese s quantity re- quired for a pound of five quarts, One hundred pounds of milk will make a ten-pound cheese. The milk as it comes from the cow is just about the right temperature to make cheese. If two milkings be used, the night's milk should be cooled at once and warmed in the morning. ety A GHOST TH!/ GLARES, A Corpse Borne by Spirits, Dripping Blood, and Other Queer Sights, Ind.—[Special to Chi- trange and uu- in the house of Mrs. Dell Freemun, on First street in this city, and visions of the dead and unnatural visitations that put to shame the anties of Banquo and the solemn visitations of of the King of Denmar The story of these ghostly appearances has just been made public, although it for some time been known to the police Mrs. I'reeman does not believe in spiritualism and hasno faith in ghosts and she is loath to talk of the manif. tations which have disturbed her pence and the peace of her family.
