Mr. Fort has devoted much time

While it is generaliy admitted
that leaves fertilize the ground, yet
it is not a good plan to allow them
to remain on the ground. Blown
by the wind into fence corners and
against other obstructions they be
come solidly packed by the rain and
snow of the winter season, and in
the spring it will be found hat the
blue-grass and clover under the
leaves has been killed. At least
some of our citizens found this to
be the case last spring.
A gentleman who does not wish
to gam notoriety by having his

;tis for several months, and his
prediction is based on the knowl
edge gained from that source. We
sincerely hope thd gentleman's
prophecy will come true.
-The monthly weather sum
mary for October issued by Obser
ver Piercy shows the 'mean temp
erature to have been 52 degrees, the
highest 83 and the lowest 18. The
mean temperature for the month
for the past twenty-one years has
averaged 50 degrees. The move
ment of wind during October ag
gregated 7,781 miles, forty miles
per hour being the maximum velo
city. During the month the rain
fall amounted to fifty-nine one
hundredths of an inch which is but
little over one-half the average for
the month during twenty-one years
observation, though a half inch
more than we had in October of
last year.

The Oxnard beet sugar factor'
yesterday shipped to the Columbian
distillery at Omaha 15,000 gallons
of molasses, This is a part of the
syrup remaining over from last
year's run of beets, which the fac
tory people have heretofore been
compelled to dispose of to vinegar
factories over the country at what
ever prices they could realize. The
discover' was made by the Colum
bian distillery that the syrup could
be utilized in the manufacture of
brandies and whiskies, an account
of which was given in these col
umns last week. The internal re
venue on manufactured whiskies of
this character is $1.10 per gallon,
and thus from the product of the
Nebraska factories the government
would get in return for the same
some thing like $30,000. The en
tire boundy paid to Nebraska fac
tories was less than $23,000 last
year, so that the government in re
turn gets a handsome profit on its
bounty investment. This gives an
idea to the bounty fighters what
might be accomplished for this
state by retaining at home not only
the millions sent abroad for sugar,
but the building of hundreds of
other factories and distilleries that
would make this eventually one of
the richest states in the Union.

The Gandy Pioneer, anticipat
ing that the legislature this winter
will make a big appropriation for
the enlargement of the state uni
versity buildings, advocates the es
tablishment of normal schools in
different sections of the state, in
stead of increasing the accommo
dations of the university. The
Pioneer among other things says:
"The reason the university is
crowded is that many citizens of
Lincoln prefer to send their child
ren to the preparatory department
of that institution rather than keep
them in the city schools where they
properly belong. The high schools
of almost all the cities in Nebraska
cover the branches taucrht in the
preparatory course in that institu
tion, and a graduation certificate
from such schools entitles the
holder to enter the first year's
course in the university, which is
next higher than the preparatory
department. The catalogue of the
university will bear out this state
ment. The western part of Ne
braska pays its share of the taxes
to maintain the public institutions
of the state, but is so far without
a public building. Kearney is in
the east half of the state, yet it is
the most western city in the state
that has received recognition at the"
hands of any Nebraska legislature
in the location of institutions
maintained bv public monev.
Knock out the preparatory course
in the university and the buildinir
is ample tor the purposes intended.
North Platte, Sidney, Broken Bow
and Chadron could each have a
state normal school at less ex
pense to the state than a new build
ing for flie state university. If
money is to be appropriated to in
crease the educational facilities of
the state, let it be in the shape of
normals, and stand up for western
Nebraska when they are located.
Judging from late statistics.
India still remains a magnificent
country for sportsmen. In 1892
21,988 human beings and 81,668
head of cattle were killed by snakes
and wild beasts, the chief human
mortality 19,025 having been dne
to snake bite. Tigers claimed 947"
human victims, leopards 260, wolves
182, bears 145, and elephants 72.
On the otaer hand, whereas only
4,498 cattle were killed by snake
bite, no fewer than 20,969 were de
voured by tigers, 30,013 by leopards
and 6,758 by wolves.

RHEUMATISM.
Rheumatism is caused by "Uric"
Acid in the blood, and is ah un
failing indication that Kidneys
are preforming their functions im
perfectly. After the poison has en
tered the system, the svmntoms
are aggravated by dampness, expo
sure to cold, improper food, drink
ing to excess, etc., but the cause
remains the same, imperfect action
of the Kidneys. Dr. Humphreys
has given the treatment of rheuma
tism his profound attention for
over forty years; his Specific No 15
is the result. It goes directly to
the spot, opens the clogged pas
sages, permitting the secretions to'
pass off, the cure follows quickly
and surely. No. 15 cures rhuema
tism, acute and chronic, lumbago,
sciatica, and all forms of rheumatic
pains, soreness, stiffness and lame
ness. A small bottle of pleasant

From
High Government Authority.
No authority of greater experience on food products ex
ists than Dr. Henry A. Mott, of New York. Dr. Mott's wide
experience as Government Chemist for the Indian Depart
ment, gave him exceptional opportunities to acquaint himself
with the qualities and constituent parts of baking powders.
He understands thoroughly the comparative value of every
brand in the market, and has from time to time expressed
his opinion thereof. On a recent careful re-examination and
analysis he finds
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder
superior to all others in strength, purity, and efficiency. Dr.
Mott writes :
" New York, March 20th,. 1894.
I find Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder to be superiol
to all others, for the following reasons :
1st. It liberates the greatest amount of leavening gas
and is consequently more efficient.
2nd. The ingredients used in its preparation are of the
purest character.
3rd. Its keeping qualities are excellent.
4th. On account of the purity of the materials and their:
relative proportions, Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder must
be considered the acme of perfection as regards wholesomeness
and efficiency, and I say this having in mind certificates. I
have given several years ago respecting two other baking;
powders.
The reasons for the change in my opinion are based on
the above facts and the new method adopted to prevent your
bating powder from caking and deteriorating in strength. "
