Methodise Matters. Rev. W. T. Smith, the presiding elder of the Council Bluffs district of the Methodist Episcopal church, is now in the fourth year of his labor in this position, which according to the itinerant system is the limit. During this period Methodism scems to have been putting its best foot forward. The showing of the amount of money raised among the churches of the district for missionary pur- poses shows a wonderful increase, This y the total given for this cause reaches & y which is 1,068 more than was raised the pr ceding year. It averages nearly $1 a mem. ber throughout the United States during last year, when a special_effort was made, and successfully, to raise £1,000,000 for missions. The increase over last year is most noticca- ble in view of the fact that four years ago the total receipts of this district for miss Ary PArposes Was on' bout £1,400, whe: now it over reaches £5,000. The increase is particularly noticeable in the Council Bluffs church, which last year gave $285, and this year $500. Shenandoah increased $164, its total being 235, and Blanchard came next with a total of $265, an increase of $115. Last year there were six or seven new churches and one or two new parsonagc This year there will be at ieast five new pas sonages, in_all prohn\nhl\, and perhaps more. One is to be built at~ Glenwood ing $1,200, One is already under way at Logan costing $1,000. The membership in- creased about 800 in this district the last year. There are thirty-two charges, and no vacant pulpits, The Easter service prepared by Elder Smith and printed here and sent out” for use in the various Sunday schogls has proved a success. Easter collection cards were also sent out, and fully 50,000 have been used on this occasion. The ' church book concerns have also been printing and distributing them, eroieag i Catch On to This.

Evans, manager of the Broad- way Bridge company, has returned from his southern trip. He expressed surprise at the statement made that he had resigned his official position in the bridge company on ac- count of some misunderstanding with other members of the company. He said the news- papers knew more about it apparently than he did, for he never had a pleasanter meet- ing than the last one previous to his starting on his trip. The only reason for resigning was that he was getting worn out, and he found it almost impossible to attend to the numerous details of the bridge enterprise without allowing his own ]vrn.xu‘ bus- iness to suffer. He w on this trip to get rest and tion. He wants the company to relieve him of the management, and to employ some one who has had more experience in such enterprises, and who can give hls whole time to it. Mr. Evans has certainly had great demands upon his time and strength, and has succeeded wonderfully consid g the numerous and serious obstacles which he has had to en- counter, and it is not to be wondered at that thers in the company insist on his re- the management. He has had so great a strain upon him for months that he began to find his nerves giving way, and deeming a short period of rest absolutely ary he took this short trip, enjoying it v, and returning refreshed and invi orated. His associates will probably insist on his holding his position. It would be difticult to secure another who would show s0 much energy and wisdomn, — - New City Direc: Changes in re be made by add Co., Omaha. ory. idence or business can i .

Last evening a combination wedding and surprise party took place at the residence of Mrs. Volrath, No. 100 Broadway. In accord- ance with arrangements made, her daughter, Miss Jennie Volrath, was given in marriage to Mr. Charles Douglas, of Columbus, O., the ceremony being performed by Rev. Dr. Rees, of Broadway M. E. church. Then the sur- prise feature of the evening occurred. The sister of the bride, Miss Lena Volrath, was led to the front by Mr. William Smith, of this city, and the minister repeated the cere- mony, ihe tying of this second knot being wholly unexpected on the part of the sister who had previously passed through the sery- ice. Congratulations were doubly hearty all around and well wishes doubly earnest. Mr, and Mrs, Douglas will proceed today to Columbus, O., their future home, where Mr. Douglas is employed as foreman of the large carriage works there. Mr. and Mrs, Smith will make this city th home.

County Recorder Thomas has discovered that some evil disposed person has mutilated record book K, in which are recorded a large number of the plats of additions to this city, by cutting and tearing out the two leaves, forming pages 6, 7, 18 and 19, The first leaf was evidently torn out with a jerk, and the other cut with u knife, as the marks of the point are plainly distinguisbable on the page beneath, ‘The missing records are very important, and particularly just now when the Manawa Motor company is seeki lOm[ el the Rock Island and uy companies to consent to grade on Ninth street.

OMATIA, April 3.—To the Editor of the BE In looking over a paper the other day I noticed an 1tem regarding the age of very old horses. Being in Canada twenty-five years ago I had the pleasure of driving two horses owned by Menzies Brothers, of Perth county, Ont. Their name was Polly and Star, Being again there this last winter 1888, I had the sume pleasure of driving the same horses, and with the excep- tion of Polly being blind, they are sound in wind and limb and owned by the same Menzies DBrothers; Adam, Robert and James. Their ages are: Star, thirty-four years, and Polly thirty-three, and they work when there is work for them to do. Now if any one can beat that for a horse story let them come on, as I can vouch for Star and old Polly. 5 Breaking Bronchos. Denver Range Journal: If you have any horses that should be broken for next season’s work, don’t put it off until the roand-up, for you have no right to impose such animals upon your co-work- ers, but break them this winter, so that they will be ready for use when needed.

How to Make Poultry Pay. American Agriculturist: That season of the year has arrived when, on the good judgment of the henwife, depends the commercial success of the poultry yard. Volumes have been written and sdeeches without limit have been ut- tered on the care and production of poultry, still there seem to be room for more admonition, so that poultry rais- ing should reach a standavd of such ex- cellence and no valueless product be on sale. As matters now stand, the great < of our land, while abundantly are badly off in regard to A steady supply of seasonable ed. It secems to be the aim of superabundant, stosle, heeds less of its fitne or ademand. The henwife is generally overworked; rhe duties are all mgnifold and all of a pressing nature, so none receive the at- tention needed. Young women of mod- erate education are to be found by the thousands who work six days a weck fi #5 or $6 a week, who, if they would be- come poultry breeders, could in a short time quadruple their earnings, And we regard it as most desirable that women should have alively personal inter in the working of our farms. The first thing to insure success is to know the market; what kind of poultry is most in ln'mwd and at what seasons of th BUR v most profitable to scll. No ‘product of the poultry yards pays better than e chickens. From January to April chickens of light weights, being pl\nn\» sell fvom 18¢ to 28¢ per pound, and when very e from per pound has been renched, as fashion- able hotels and restaurants must have chicken to broil. Early ducks also fetch igh pr 50 do medium_ weight tur- A consideration of importance is breeds of poultry are the best. Tor early chickens, the Dominicks and their near cousins,the Plymouth Rocks, becnuse of their hardiness of constitu- tion. *When more care can be bestowed than the general poultry brecder gives, then some of the French varieties would be better. The Houdans, the Creve Ceeurs and the La Fleche are un- passed as table poultry. When late chickens are sought for—and very late pay just as well as early and also find competition — the Asiatie should be preferred. best suited are the Cochin-Chinas, and the The cellence of in their ave shorter on the leg thau are other A atic fowls, 1If the poultry range be larger, then the Do ame fowls are un- doubtedly superior to all other breeds; but these 1y ish families do not love close quarters and droop and pine in continement. For table ducks, both early and late, the Roen and the Alesbury are sufficient. Both are fond of home’, lay early, and readily acquire weight. The gr essential of neat- ness has disappeared from the poultry busine New, York and other large cities of the union derive their supply of both live and dressed poultry from distant points; no proper care is taken to place the shipments on sale in good order, llu» ltving part of the contribu- ly depleted by death ] re in such a sor plight olting to look upon. The neighborhood of New York sup- plies a very small portion of what the metropolis needs. = With some enter- prise on the part of women_this trade could be revolutioniz and New York city be abundantly supplied from a dius of 100 miles. Most of the live poultry now sold in New York is taken Long Island and New Je, at wholesale s and aft pleasing profit is re v does not Long Island produce as well as competc? Because of the indolence of her people. A small capital is only needed Lo commence. Twelve pullets and a cockered. two ducks and ad will start a poultry business that, sound judgment, 1 comp: income. None need hesitate to to raise eggs and poultry. for the New York markets. Several millions of eggs are annually brought into the country from Canada and Ilm'nlu-. which the home product should be able profitably to displace. For s 1 weeks of every year New York state contributes no” eggs to the public demand. The offerings at the same time from New Jers Ve small. Last February New Yorkers ate eggs from Virginia, North Carolina and Tenn © breeds Those Partridge Light Brahmus, these quictud with a large Potato Improvement. B. F. Jonnson says in the New York Tribune: “The Late Rose potato grown in the neighborhood of Pembina and Vincent in Upper Dakota, near the ninth parallel of north latitude, ble for size, beauty of lunu and color, and more remarkable still for high quality, “When grown in mid- itudes in Illinois and Towa, the 0 far asinside or outside erned, is a misnomer, the skin being a dull red and the flesh in- side showing occasionally a reddish tint. The Dakow Late Rose is smooth, round and large, the color, if not rose, is very near it, while the flesh inside is marked and embelished with a blush rose as delicate as it is beautiful. If the Dakota Late Ttose has a fault it is being so charged with starch that the outside falls off and goes to pieces befor the inside is done. 1 should like to know how the climate and soil of the valley of the Red River of the north affect the Barly Rose. The Early Rose has degenerated in Illinois 80 as to become. in form and size of |u< ber like the Lady ol forty y: ago, though Still retains its ,,uml quality for the table and measurably its early habit. It is generally thought that the Irish potato, like other plants propagated from cuttings and from seed, gradunlly det ates and dies out in the course of a whole or a half of alife time, And such app ars to have been the fate of the popular varieties of the last twenty: ears, the Pe: blow for late and the Early and Late Rose for . But it seems the soil and climate of Dakota have a certain power for regeneration in the case of the Irish potato, and it may be good policy to obtain seed there, and also to send out our old favorites there to be cultivated and eared for so they may obtain a new lease of life. Growing Beets for Stock. F. D. Pierc n writing in the Farmer on the cultivation of beets for “Unless the ground is should be well covered in the fall, and plowed as deep as possible, covered again in the winter with manuve, and as soon in the spring as it will -work nicely plowed again and harrowed down fine.” Then throw it into ridges about two feet apart, drill the seed three inches apart in the ridges, and when the beets are color is conc Ohio says: ve rich, it with manure 1p two or tree inches high thin out to fiftecu inches apart. Should there be any spot where l‘u\ seed failed to grow, it can be filled by transplanting, This should be avoided as much as possible, as those transplanted do _not do nearly as well. In thinning and weeding out great care should be taken not to touch the roots with tho hoe, as the cut will grow with the root. 1 think th Golden Tankard yellow fleshed mnnr(tfi the very best \nrwh I have tried. The main requisites for a good crop are to have the ground rich, with plenty of good mould, and attention when small, as when you once get them to growing nicely the trouble is comparatively over. Ithink anyone who raises a crop and sees the results of feeding it to cat- tle will feel well repaid for his trouble. - Fast and Pokey. Chicago Journal: Three young girls ran away from the industrial school for girls at South Evauston recently, be- cause they thought that reformatory and eduecational institution “too slow and pokey™ to suit their ideas, This only shows that when those girls were sent to the South Evanston institution, no mistake was made. Y. oung girls who don’t like “slow and pokey’ ways and people are ina bad way. Their pro- pensities are *fast and pokey,” and they need to be restrained and reformed. At the same lime it is in order to inquire how it comes that refractory girls who are consigned to the South Evanston re- formatory are, as we learn, sometimes treated inhumanly, 1t should be the duty of somehody to look into our re- pormatory institutions occasionally, and co that they are conducted on christian ri nciples. — - Tor sale cheap.
