He remained there nearly an hour'when he was taken home in a carriage. His condition is now much improved, and he will probably be able to resume business to-day. The funeral of May Christensen, aged eight years, and her sister Ada, aged four ears, took place at 2 o'clock ycsterday tefioon froin the Scandinavian Bapt church, The older girl died last weelk, but as the doctor had given up all hopes of her sister’s recovery, the funeral was postponed in order to comply with the request made by the dying girl that her little sister might be buried in her arms. In accordance with that wish the two children were buried in oac coffin. The cause of their death was mem- braneous croup.

John Short Wins His Long Rallway Suit—Judge Aylesworth Inter- views a Hard Crowd—Person- and Minor Mention. The Fires Of a Year. Chief Templeton, of the fire department, has presented the following annual report: To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Council Bluffs, Ia.—Gentle- men: 1 herewith most respectfully submit for your consideration my annual report for the Tiscal year ending March 19, 1885, show- ing the work performed, and such recom- mendations for future ' consideration as I deem of most_ importance. The department has responded to alarms and calls as follows: Box alarms. , W ‘ Telephone alar Still alarms. . Total, . The following expiains the cause Test of alarms. Brush fires, . Spontaneous combustion 11s to Neola...... Sparks from locomotive Hot ashes.... Defective flues, ... Gasoline explosions Fire crackers.... Overheated oven........ Overheated drying room. Incendiary . Carelessness with fire pot Flour dust explosion.. ... False..... Unknown Carelessness with lamp Burning manure........... Slaal o 20 0 0 s e 8 O 00 3 A new fire alarm, new extension hook and ladder truck, chief's wagon, threq new hotses and harness, 1,000 fect of hose, have been added to the department, also the new house for the use of hose company No. 4 and hook and ladder company No. 1. RECOMMENDATIONS. T recommend that a new house be built for the use of hose company No. 1, as the present quarters ure too smali and orowded, besides being the only quarters not owned by the city. ! I also recommend *that hose carts Nos. 1 and 3 be painted, and that repairs be made on cngine house No. 3, to put it in first-class order. I also recommend that cranes be erected for the use of strect sprinklers, and the use of fire hydrants prohibited. CONCLUSION In closing I desire to express my obligations and thanks to his honor, the mayor, and city council, for the personal interest manifest in this department at all times; for the gener- ous support given me, also to all departments of the city government for courtesies ex- tended, and to Harry Birkenbine, chicf of water works, for willing assistance at all times. Last, but not least, I desire to extend my most sincere thanks to every officer and member of the department for the faithful manner in which all duties have been per- formed. The work of the past year may be pointed to with pride, and 1 sincerely hope that the present record for cfficiency and reliability may ever be maintained. Respectfully sub- mitted. Jonx L. TEMPLETON, Chief Fire Department. A Tough Crowd. The toughest crowd appeared before Judge Aylesworth in the police court yesterday morning that has been before the bar for some time. James Carroll, Thomas Walters, Thomas Hanlon and John Kline composed a forlorn looking quartette of tramps, ragged, airty and generally forbidding. It was against the wishes of the court to send any of them 10 jail, but Kline pleaded guilty and had to be locked up. The others were discharged. May Boyd, alias Minnic Ellis, a sixtcen- year-old girl of doubtful reputation, was charged with drunkenness and screaming on the streets. She was fined $7.60, and being unable to pay she was locked up. Jack Kune, the confidence was also brought into court, bub waived examination and was bound over to the grand jury in the sum of shark, 1,000, There is an opinion among some of the court officials that Kane is the party who as- sisted Hall in - “working” the 'German, Pollenz, instead of the man Quirk, who is now confined in the county jail on that charge. There has been considerable doubt as to Quirk’s being the man, although he was positively identificd by Pollenz, Several parties from Lincoln swore positively that Quirk was in that city at_tho_time alleged, but an libi was not established. A member of the demi-monde testified that a man called on her on the day that Pollenz was swindled and told her thathe had “done a Dutchman.” She swore that the man was pock-marked, and the description given answers much better for Kane than Quirk, although the two men closely resemblé each other in many particulars. Quirk has not yethad his trial, but was placed under $1,000 bonds. The grand jury returned an indictment against him. In the light of later developments it is quite prob- able that he will be acquitted, and Kane ar- raigned for that crime. Herman Weir, Kane's latest victim, was also put under $1,000 bonds, to appear before the grand jury us prosecuting witness. In the afternoon the cases of Hughes, the burglar, and Free, the coon carver, were called. " Attorney Snyder appeared for both men. Oliver Vance, the victim of Frec's murderous attack, wis the only witness ex- amined in that case, and Free was bound over to the grand jury in the sum of $1,000 on the charge of assault with intent to com- mit murder. Several witnesses were ex- amined in the burglary case, and Hughes was bound over to the grand jury in the sum of $1,000, ——— Whitmer Sentenced. In the district court yesterday, before Judge Thomell, the motion for a new trial in the case of State vs Harry Whitmer for horse stealing, was argued and a decision rendered. At the first trial before Judge Deemer the jury failed to agree, standing eleven to one for conviction after being out two days. At the second trial, before Judge Thomell, during the present term, the jury returned a verdict of guilty, but a motion was made for a new trial. This motion has been pending during Judge Thomell's absence at Red Oak. ‘The defendant wished to have the motion withdrawn, on the understanding with Judge Loorfbourow that he should be sentenced for only a year. This is the course affairs would probably have taken had not the defendant’s attorney, H, B, Williams, of Glenwood, ex- pressed groat dissatisfaction at the proceed- fiigs, and. fually Colonel Datley, the pros. ecuting attorney, asked the court to allow the motion to remain and be argued. At the close of the argument the motion was over- ruled and the prisoner sentenced to the pen- itentiary for a term of two years and a half, ‘The history of the crime’for which Whit- mer goes to the pen was given in the BE at the time of the trial, and consisted of steal- ing a pair of horses in Mills county and run- ning them to Omaha, where they were found in his possession, —_—— See the Oyclone.

Ma s A Philadelphia servant has distin- guished herself by an original sort of private theatricals, While her mistress was away she attired herself in the Lest dress of the lady of the house, made calls .upon strange ladies and invited them to return the courtesy. When they called she eutertained them appro- priately; showed them ' over. the hause and felt provoked because her girl had gone out. The farce cohtinuvd. for 80me time. Products Retained on the Farm, The value of a erop does not depend entirely on the market price, but partly upon the uses to which the crop is ap- plied. A corn crop,if sent to market, may bring but little more than the cost of its production; but it is equivalent to o certain amount of raw material,which can be converted into some other pro- duct more in demand, such a8 beef, mutton, milk,pork or poultry. Nor can the real value of the crop be estimated by the amount received for the meats s0ld, asa large portion of the crop isleft over and rejained in the shape of manure. Careful experiments have been made in order to determine the amount of potash, nitrogen and phosphoric acid left in the manure after the food has passed through the bodies of animals, but no certain results can be obtained owing to differences in the digestive capacity of animals, though in trials of two weeks duration, where green fod- der and grain have been fed, it was found that 62 per cent. of all the nitro- gen, 89 per cent. of all the phosphoric acid and 63 per cent. of all the potash remained in the manure. This shows that the food is only partially digested and assimilated, and that the _value of the crop must be considered not only in regard to its market price and its product, but aiso to its future use in providing a second crop. Where concentrated foods, such as liuseed and cottonseed meals are used, the value of the manure is still greater, and if the prices obtained for meat and milk be no greater than the cost of food and labor. the manure alone will give a large rofit, as from 25 to 40 per cent of the 1604 used is retained on the farm in the manure, and the larger the proportion of nitrogen in the food (ag wit seed meal), the greatef tiie value of the man- ure in proportion to its weight. If the total value of a ton of linseed be esti- mated at $60, the feeding value may be ated at 832, and the manurial value at 28, but cornmeal gives a feeding value of $23 out of a total of 830, leaving $7 to be returned in the manure. If the man- ure be not retained on the farm, but sold at its real value, it would, there- fore, be as much a product of the food as meat or milk, but it is more economi- cal to retain it, for the reason that its removal adds to its cost. Many cattle foods are really cheaper than their manurial value, and may be applied directly ty the land, but this depends entirely upon the quality of the soil and its deficiency in any particular element. The value of the manure to the land de- vends upon its preponderance of some special element. otash manures are valuable on nitrogenous soils, but pos- sess little value on soils abounding in patash, and all these values are to be considered in the final estimates. Hints and Suggestions. The most economical mode of using buttermilk is to give it to the young pigs and also to the laying hens, as it promotes growth of body and assists in the production of eggs. A New York bee-keeper has 2,700 col- onies of bees. Such alarge number can only be maintained in sections where pasturage is plentiful and by exper- ienced bee-keepers. As a rule those crops pay best that re- quire the most care and attention. The brains and the labor are what sell in the market in the shape of the crop. The sheep must have a dry location at night. Dampness is fatal to sheep, be- ing the cause of distemper, while wet pasture fields conduce foot-rot. Stagnant water on the farm is the hot-bed of disease, and annually will cause ten times the loss equal to an amount ten times appropriated for draining it off. Growing animals should be fed a mus- cle and frame producing ration in such quantities as to produce rapid growth, keeping the animal in average condi- tion. Prof. Long saysthat in one year Great Britain imports 257,000,000 pounds of butter, requiring, upon the ordinary estimate, 773,000,000 gallons of milk to make it. This milk in its turn would require for its production 1,717,000 cows. A well balanced ration, fed at regular hours and in regular quantities, with attention to water, salt, bedding and all the points which' go to make the ani- mals comforjuble, will save money, par- ticularly in a season when feed is high priced. It is more profitable to keep a few hens in roomy quarters than many in close, small rooms. Mares in foal should have exerci and moderate work, but under no cumstances should be "'"b{“‘"’ s0 harsh treatment, nor should they ever be allowed to go where they would be in danger of being frightened. Under such circumstances the unborn colt is quite likely to be influenced, and may for its whole life be a nervous, timid horse, shying at every trifle, inclined to run from euery new and strange object it should meet. This quality, if "in- herited, cannot be overcome, hence the necess of avoiding those things that might cause it. No man who owns a cow can afford to have her afraid of him, for it would be aloss to the owner every time the cow should be in any way frightened, while to run a cow to pasture is like throwing money away, Thecow issimply a milk- making machine, and should be kept in the best working condition, and for her this condition is one of quiet. A cow that should be in any way worried will not do herbest. Make pets of the cows, and they will make money for the owner. There can be no possible objection to feeding straw, but care should be taken to derive as large anamount of benefit as possible. It must be fed in' sucha way that a good gain can be secured with the stock. Wintering stock to keep it ulive is one thing, wintering so that a good steady growth will be made anuther. In the one straw can be made to answer, in the other something else is necessary. In the one there isno profit, with he other a very fine profit may be secured. An old Kentucky breeder of swine places salt first in importance as & pre- ventive of cholera and believes that salt of all substances, 1s the best promoter of digestion as well as an antidote against worms. This breeder has adopted the plan of salting all his animals in water- tight troughs, keeping a supply of salt on hand constantly. He also feeds some charcoal with the salt to swine that are clusu!y‘imuned and givesashes occasion- ully under all conditions, A very successful poultry fancier in western New York rejects ground feed and hot mash notions as contrary to. nature for chickens and hens. He feeds cracked grains, corn, wheat, ete., dry and has the best of results. Hens gen- erally refuse whole rye, selecting from a mixture of wheat and rye the wheat and leaving -the rye.. From eéating ground wheat and rye mixed with water & poultry keeper says some of his best hens died crop-bound. Southdown rams are the best for cross- ing on small native breeds in order to produces excellent mutton® The ewes }mm such cross should be mated with Do not omit the warm water for cows because of modetation in the weathef, So long ns the whter shall be cold, and the weather changeable, it should be lightly warm, and the average yield of of milk will be thus maintained. Fowls must have fresh meat occa- sionally to supply the vplace of the bugs and worms that are now unattain- able. At the recent meeting of the Ameri- can Poultry association, at Indianapolis, the Dorking fowl was exempted from the heavy ‘‘cuts” as a fancy fowl, it being considered a strictly market fowl. This action recognizes the Dorking as the best and leading breed for market. Look over your seed corn now, as the severe weather may have injured it. If 80, and new seed is to be procured, it should be got at once, as there is some- times a searcity of good seed when plant- ing time comes, especially after a severe winter. The average yield of wheat in the United States in 1887 was about twelve bushels per acre, and the average price about 68 cents per bushel. This is at the rate of #8.16 per acre. Can farmers afford to raise wheat on such results? Some of them, of course, did not grow twelve bushels per acre. With wheat giving such returns its place will grad- ually be filled by cattle raising or some- thing more profitable. Although the dairymen are gradually becoming educated to a knowledge of of the advantages of pure bred dairy stock, yet many of them require train- ing in the art of making butter. To learn to make ‘‘gilt-edge” butter is equivalent to learning a trade, and mil- lions of dollars are annually lost to our dairymen through imperfect knowledge in making butter. In Europe schools of instruction are rapidly increasing, and there is a necessity for something of the kind in this country. Where manure has been scattered over the strawberry plants, in rows, it will require but little labor to rake over the manure. It the rain anq frost have had an opportunity to break the lumps to pieces it will be an easy matter to make the manure fine with the rake. By so doing the spring rains will wash in the soluble matter, and at the same time clean the beds, thus leaving less dirt to adhere to the berries. There is no fixed ratio of grain in stock. In all experiments that have been made it has been demonstrated that even with animals of the same age and breed, fed alike and given equal advantages, each individual differed from the others in the weight gained during the same period of time. The garden should befmade as fine as possible. Iflarge the harrow should be used, and the ground gone over a dozen times if necessary., After this let the rake be used. Too much work cannot be given to the preparation of the gar- den, Not a single clod or lump should be allowed on it. Do not get the' bees out of the cellar too soon, or a cold snap may overtake them. On clear warm days they will come out and clean the hive, but care must be used to not have the hive in a warm location until danger of storms shall have passed. . Farmers could. accomplish more than they supposo by holding weekly meet- ings and discussing how to best plant and cultivate the crops to go in this spring. By giving the experience of the past year a saving of time and money would result. 1f a hen should lay two eggs a week she would more than pay for her food and use of the quarters. All over this number should be profit. Four eggs a week, however, would give double the vrofit derived from three eggsin the same time. When the udder of the cow becomes hard a prolonged bathing*of the udder with warm water is the best remedy. Use the water freely, and rub the udder during the application; then \vri{]e dry. It should be repeated daily until relief be given. A correspondent of the Farmers’ Ma- gazine states that the application of a mixture of one part coal tar and the same of wood tar to the sides and bottoms of water troughs will great- ly assist in preventing any trouble with sheep. Rotation of crops baffle, in a measure, the root enemies, both insect and fun- gus, that prey upon them, Each plant has 1ts own peculiar enemies,and chang- ing of plants removes them to fields un- occupied by such enemies, This is true of the enemies of the above-ground growth of plants to an important de- gree. The forest land in the United States, xeluding Alaska, embraces 500,000,000 5 per cent of the entire area. The farmers own about 38 per cent of the forest area, or some 185,000,000 acres. The rest is owned by railroad corporations, mine-owners, charcoal burners, tanneries, lumbermen and speculators. The most porous land will stand the drought best. The increased earliness of fruits and vegitables on well-drained land is well understood. They will be at least four days earlier on soil of the same condition and exposure where it is well drainee. This means better prices, alarger yield, alonger season and a better margin of profit. It is just as important with horses to breed for intelligence as it 18 with the buman race. A dumb, stupid colt can never be educated to be a valuable horse. Without intelligence, it will always be sluggish, and will never have an attachment to its master, nor mani- fest any disposition to obey and serve U A s T intelligent horses are naturally docile, or can be easily trained to be kind, reliable, and even effectionate.
