FARMERS' COLUMN.
Cootribationi to this Column are requested
from the practical farmers of the county.
,-. . . Things In Central.
The weather has very much improved
since our last. Once more the sun shines
on the just and unjust ; alike on the late
corn just pecpiDg through, and on the
early corn plum full of weeds, and its a
Tery even "tos3 up," as to which crop
will be the best next falL
Geo. Francis Train, prophecies that
flour, corn, wheat and cotton will double
in value inside of ninety days. Should
that be so and there is some grouud in
Train's madness outside of politic! cur
farmers may consider themselves as in
luck, this time, for every chance seems
now in their favor for a splendid yield of
wualr grains. Train alio tells us that
St. Louis will be the largest cify in the
United States in fity years that, maybe,
will aid us no I mean our children who
will Borne day ship the products of their
farms to this modern centre of the Uni
verse at much less rates than it now
costs to get to a market.
Better than this, though, our farmers
may set it down for a fuct, that withiu
our day, and quicker than most of us
think, we shs.ll have an outlet to the Fee
board by way of Galveston or some
southern port in Texas, and then good
bye to long transits and high rates for
shipping grain from Nebraska. Com
petition will lower them, and manufacto
ries begin to bring in mouths to feed tt
home, so that our last days shall be bet
ter than our Gist; and in the fullness if
old ago under our own vine and fig tree3
we shall dwell in pcaca and prosperity,
and laugh at the day3 when we wondered
whether Nebraska was a good farming
.country or no, and even doubted the
chances of making a living at it some
times. Advexll.te Your County.
We all want more settlers in and
around us; every merchant in town feels
that, every farmer a3 he rides over the
long, vacant stretches of prairie, on his
way to and from market, knows this.
We have the soil, the advantages of
shipment, and the proximity of railroads,
schools and churches. All we need now
is the capital and labor to develop their
wonderful facilities.
In order to obtain these we should ad
vertise our county. Sen! your home
papers East, and your pamphlets and
circulars. Not every one brings a har
vest, but many will in the course of time
b.ing forth fruits.

It is said, in a Washington lispatch,
that Senator Carpenter is soon going on

The new Land District created for
southwestern Nebraska will he a great
accommodation to the people of the
Platte "and Republican Valleys. It is
not decided yet where the Land Office
will be located ; but everything goes to
show that Lowell, on the line of the
UurliDcton & Missouri llailro;J m Ne
braska, is the inoat conveni.nt and uiost
accptable place for the location thereof.
Lentrthy petitions have been forwarded
from residents of the I'latte and Repub
lican alleys in lavor of the new Land
Office being located at Lowell, and there,
undoubtedly, it will go. star.

COAL.
We learn that an excellent article of
coal stone coal, we understand has
been discovered on Sappa Creek, He
publican River, in Harlan County, Ne
braska. It is reported that a sackful of
the coal has been brought in, but we
have not got a sight of any of it yet. We
eive the report as it conies to us. and
will be able to give a more 6aUfactory
report as soon as we have more authority.
or have seen undoubted specimens of
the coal. If the report as it comes to us
is confirmed, it wiil be a glorious discove
ry especially it the coal-beds are of such
a character as to render them profitable
in niiniug. Central Nebraska will then
be far iu advance of what even the most
sanguine expected. We will thank the
discoverers, or any of tl o e ttY.o haveVpe
cimens of the coal, to tend some of the
jetty brilliants to our fanclum for irener

good report of this favored region a new

ters according to directions and remain long en well,
provided their bones nra not destroyed by mineral
poison or other means, and the vital organs wasted
beyond tho point of repair.
They are a Geutlo Pargative asvell as a
Tonic, possessing, also, the peculiar Cici il of acting
as a powerful agcr.t in relieving Congestion or Inflam-?

FOIl FEMALE COMPLAINTS, In young or
old. married or single, at the dawn of womanhood or at
the turn of lite, these Tonic Bitters have no equal.
For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheuma
tism and Jout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion,
Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fe
vers, Ilisenscs of the IJlood, Liver, Kid
neys and Itiaddcr, these Bitters have been most

Common Sense.
lhe Vati ora Aewtpapfr,
The following is the experience of a
mechanic concerning the benefits of a
newspaper :
Ten yearn ago I lived in a town in In
diana, On returning home one night,
ior I ara a carpenter l y trade, I taw a
little girl leave my door, au,l I asked my
wife who she was. She said Mrs. Har
ris had sent her after their newspaper
which my wife had borrowed. As wo
sat down to tea my wife said to mo by
name:
"I wish you would subscribe for tho
newspaper; it is so much comfort to mo
when you are away from home "
4tI wt uld like to do so," said I. "but
you know I owe a payment on the house
and lot. It will bo all I can do to meet
it "
She replied: ."If you will tako this
paper, I will sew for the tailor to pay for
I subscribed for tho paper ; it came in
due time to the shop. While rtstinir
one noon and looking over it, I saw an
advertisement of tho couDty commis
sioner: to let a bridge that was to bo
built. I iit in a bid for tho bridge, and
the job was awarded to me, on which I
cl-an-d $3(X, which enabled uio to pay
for my hou and lot easily, and fur tho
newspaper. If I had not subscribed for
the newspaptr I would not have known
anything aboit tLe contract, and could
not have met my payment on my house
and lot. A rjechanic never loaes any
thing by taking a newspaiw-r.
A man nmed Yr-i 15ro j;cj
Italeii-h, North Carolina, the otlicr day,
and a local paper thus sum uph.'s his
tor: "When Andy Johnson lift thid
city, a poor tnilor-boy at old Litcljtld's
shop, Xe.'il Brown went out wilj bira
for three or four miles, and carrid on
his back, wrapped "up in an old pieic of

"If you prefer the keg of l.-igcr or the
bottle of wine to me," said Mary, "just
take them to the magistrate, and get
married to them."
"What do you mean ?" asked John.
"Just what 1 say. I don't want a
young man to come here evenings chew
ing cloves to cover his breath, and hide
his habits of drinking. If you like
lager more than you love me, juH marry
it at once, and don't divide your affec
tions between a woman and wine or
woman and lager ; love and liquor have
no affinity."
"Why, Mary, how you talk I" ex
claimed John.
"Yes, I mean what I pay ; unless you
sign the pledge, and keep it, you had
better not call here again."
John did sign the pledge, and hft
kept it, and he Married Mary.

Postmaster Jones, of New York, tel!
a good campaign story for Horace Gree
ley : "Some time ago one Norton,
cash.er of the postoff o , timed out as a
defaulter, and the Government cam3
down on his securities, among whom was
Horace Greeley, reponiole t the ex
tent of about thirty thousand dollars.-
Greeley was very restive under this ob
ligation, and he is so much in fear of
debt that he actually wanted to give his
check for the whole amount, and get it
off his hand. Finally a meeting of the
indorsers was held, and Mr. Greeley
put on his spectacles, took up his bond,
and dolefully read over the conditions.
"They say I write an infernally bad
hand," said Greeley, "but they can read
it plain enough when it gets on one of
these things." AVu Y'rk Jlrrald.
