Farmer*' Coin* at the State University.
The University of Nebrsaka baa juat
leaned a very attractive pamphlet de
scriptive of the achool of agriculture,
which every farmer should send for.
This course in Agriculture is altogether
the moat complete, practical and com
mon venae thing of the kind that has
ever come under our observation. Itts
something that no farmer’s boy or girl
of any ambition can afford to misa
The people in charge of the school
realize the fact that most farmers' sons
Bud daughters cannot afford the time
and money required in the preparation
for and completion of a regular course,
but that in farming as in any other
business education and training pay.
Keeping this in view, they have pre
pared a snort, practical course of three
months, beginning Dec. ‘.'9, 1890, and
ending March 19, 1897. It provides for
the following studies: Soil tillage,
diseases of farm animals, stock breed
ing und judging, feeding cattle and
hogs, farm dairying, fruit raising and
vegetable gardening, carpentry and
blacksmithing, domestic economy, etc.
An explanation given In the circular
of the" manner in which the instruction
is given shows that the student ob
tains much of it by actual practice and
observation. Not that he will be ex
pected to do the work of the farm with
which he is already familiar, but such
operations aa judging stock, milk test
ing, improved methods of butter-mak
ing, tree grafting, treating sick ani
mals, etc.

Nkw Yohk, Nov. 2.—To-day was the
day set for the great final parade of
the Republican organizations, and
practically no business was done in the

chance of the advance guard of the
great parade appearing the sidewalks
on either side of the streets named in
the line of march were scarcely pass
able.
Along the route of the parade, from
the Mattery to Fortieth street, there
was a remarkable display of Hags and

BISMARCK NOT ALARMED.
The Prince'* Newspaper Organ Krtnrni
to the Attach.
Hkri.in, N ov. .—Prince Bismarck
apparently is not alarmed by the
threats to prosecute him, for his organ,
the Hamburger Nachrichten, to-day
replied to the broadside of the official
Reichs Anzciger of Tuesday, which in
timated that the fate which overtook
Count von Arnim might await those
who disclosed secrets of state. The
Nachrichten says: "The negotiations
of those days (of Bismarck's tenure of
office) were no strict state of secrets, but
belonged to history. There is no ne
cessity for. secrecy so far as Germany
and the dreihund is concerned, as the
treaty was made solely in compliance
with Russia's wish and Germany had
nothing to Is- ashamed of. (hi the con
trary, all peace-loving Germans have
just satisfaction. It is totally untrue
that the treaty implied disloyalty to
the dreihund. The latter even allowed
Austria to be neutral in the event of a
French attack upon Germany or an
unprovoked German attack on Russia.
The whole dreihund could incorporate
in It if Russia was willing and conclude
the same argument without abandon
ing its main purpose. This would
tranquilize all the friends of peace, and
if there is any inclination on the part
I Russia it would lie expedient to re
new the Russo-German treaty."
The Hamburger Nachrichten then
takes the Reich's Anzciger to task for
saying of its announcement of the ex
istence of the Rusao-Gerinun treaty
that “It will neither correct what is
falsi- nor supplying what is incom
plete," saying: "The statement made
is not false, us declared by the Reich's
Anzciger, and the latter can only sup
plement what It declares to be incom
plete by publishing the whole treaty.
Under these circumstances the Ham
burger Nachrichten considers itself en
titled to demand u public ratification,
as required by the press law, of the
Wi-l(>h*U A rivoiiroe's ukkortinn ”

reports from United States Consul
Parker at Birmingham the trade of

one was shipped this year. On the
other hand some American machines
were sold in Birmingham, and the con

cerning Watson's letter of acceptance:
“Mr. Watson's letter was received
Saturday night. It had been detained

course, I expected Mr. Watson to give
hla letter to the public in the usual

Washburne went to Nashville, Tenn.,
on last .Saturday for a conference with
Mr. Wataon. I wired Mr. Washburne,
who had just returned from Nash

ference with Mr. Watson, that the
letter had been received. Mr.
Washburne wired me In reply, asking
me not to publish the letter at present.
In the meantime, I have written to Mr.
Watson, urging the advisability of
making at least one important change
in his letter. If lie authorizes this
chiirfge, I will give out the letter.
Otherwise, he must take the responsi
bility of publishing it himself.”

A REMARKABLE CASE.
ILL SINCE GIRLHOOD. NOW A
PICTURE OF HEALTH.
From the Star, Valparaiso, Ind.
The attention of the Star having been
called to several cases of radical cures
effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People, it was determined to in
vestigate some of the more notable of
these cases, with a view to disseminat
ing exact information on the subject
and benefiting others who were suffer
ing. Prominent among those who had
experienced benefits from the use of
this remedy was mentioned Mr* Mary
Noren, wife of John Noren, a prosper
ous farmer, living northeast of Valpar
aiso, Ind.. and to her a reporter was
accordingly dispatched.
Mra Noren was found busily engaged
in household duties, but she found time
todetall her experience, and was willing
and even anxious that the benefits she
had felt should be told fur the benefit
of those who had suffered as she did.
*T had been ill since girlhood with a
complication of complaints," said Mr*
Noren, "never so much as to be confined
long in bed, but 1 suffered intense mis
ery. My chief trouble was with my
stomach. 1 felt » constant gnawing
fiain that was at times almost distract
ng, and which had been diagnosed by
different physicians us dyspepsia and
sympathetic derangement dependent on
the condition of the generative organ*
I had pains iu the back, sometimes so
great as to make me unable to work,
and frequent bilious attack* I also
suffered greatly from constipation, from
which I never could find permanent re
lief. Then these symptoms were agra
vated by rheumatic pains between the
shoulder blades, which were most ex
cruciating in damp or cold weather.
After my marriage about five year*
ago, and when my baby was horn the
trouble seemed to increase, uud i was
frequently so aick that 1 could not dr.
my household work. I tried differed1}
K clans and used numerous remedies
11 in vain, until one day last fall I
happened to read of Dr. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. My husband go* i
three boxes from Mr. C. I). Kusliton, A
the druggist, and 1 began to use them.
From the first 1 began to feel relief,
and before the three boxes were gon*
I wfiH npnrlv wpII. 'I ronsti nation
was cured and the other troubles were
ho much relieved that J frit belter than
I had felt for years. As 1 continued in
the use of the pills I grew better and
strong, my appetite was more natural,
and my lfesh increased, until I am in
the condition you sec me now."
Dr. Williams' Dink Dills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements nec
essary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
Dink Dills are sold by all dealers, or
will be sent postpaid on receiptof price,
50 cents a box, or six boxes for 50
(they are never sold in bulk or by the
100, ) by addressing Dr. Williams’ Med

Texas.
In the agricultural line, Texas leads
all other states in the variety of its
products. Cotton, corn, and the cereals
grow and are raised in every section of
the state and in the central and south
ern portions sugar cane and sorghum
cane are profitably cultivated. On the
Gulf Coast two or three crops of veg
etables are raised each year. Kerries
are shipped six weeks in advance of
the home crop in the north. Dears,
peaches, plums, oranges, flgs, olives,
and nuts all grow abundantly and can
be marketed from two to three weeks
in advance of the California crops.
I.arge quantities of rice are now grown.
If the land seeker, the home seeker,
and the settler desires to secure a
farm larger than the one he occupies,
on vastly more reasonable terms; if he
wants more land to cultivate, a greater
variety of crops to harvest, with pro
portionately increased remuneration,
at a less outlay for cost of production;
if he wants an earlier season, with
correspondingly higher prices; if he
wants milder winter, all the year pas
turage for his stock, improved health,
increased bodily comforts and wealth
and prosperity he should go to Texas.
