I '.tWf...tv Ncbraslm i5ucrtt0ct BROWNVILLE, TJ1CRSDAY, MARCH 19, 1SR3. Agricultural Department. FURNAS, EDITOR. Annual Election, Etc., or the Ne maha Co. Agricultural Sodetr. Notice it hereby given to tbe public, that a meet ing el the Xemaba County Agricultural Socie'y will be held at '.he Adcertii r cEUe, in BrownTille. on Saturday, March 25ih ISlS.at 10 o'clock A.M. for the purpose f electing effiers of the Society for the coming year; to perfect the Amul Pre niium liit for the text kutum fair: to dctctmii e the t:ine nl place f,r holding eaid fair ; to revise and amend the Constitution and By-lws if the Society; and traniict such other butiaocs as may be presented. A general atteJrnce of all persons interests! is deMrtd. D ordv;r of the Freilent. II.O.MIN"ICK,Soc'y. Fruit Trees. As the seasen for planting is at hand, a vrcrd in regard to this question will not be amiss. The many., impositions prac ticed by tree venders, has as much to do with discouraging ihcse who would plant, as all else combined. This difficulty can be arcihJ .2"iinrr-iih reliable nurserymen or agents personally known. '..Next, "and raolt' important, become ac quainted with frrit culture the varieties aD'J characteristics. , ' In propagating and cultivating there ' are,facis to which too little attention is paid. For instance., in the selection of trees planted and cultivated, most peo ple will, when ihey ore permitted, select the largest and most rank looking trees This is a. mistake in our opinion. .Most cf such trees are the effects of over cul ture. A dwarfish tendency, or shortish growth, causing the twigs and buds to perfect earlier, are requisites. Such trees will shed their leaves earlier, and be the better prepared for winter. More trees are icjued by the first freeze or frost, than by hard winter. Great care should be exercised in taking- up, transporting and transplanting. A tree should be carefully taken up ; all the feeding root possible should be pre served without mutilation. The roots and tops should be studiously and propor tionately pruned all fractured roots acd limbs nicely cut away with a sharp knife. Remembering that both the top and root Lave distinct yet conjunctive duties to perform. In planting dig large holes, that the roots may be spread as much as possible. Then it will pay to "puddle" oua t :r .... V, planting at all, it is worth planting well. By taking this pains ninety-nine out of every hundred trees may be made to live and grow, excep: from some extraordi nary surroundings. Peaches. There is no longer a doubt as to the Euccess cf Peach growing in Southern Nebraska. Seedling Peaches, however, are most reliable. The successful cul turist plants the seedand raises his own trees. For twelve years past there have been Peach crops half the time in this portion of the State. While on this sub ject permit a suggestion founded cn ob servation. In planting seed, we have found thai small seed prodace a hardier andnore prolific tree. AVe have lost three stands cf bees' this spring, or rather some time in the win ter, acd are'at a less' to c&rfectly account for it. On examining the hires a few . days since, it was found that three large and apparently strong swarms were dead, while there was an abundance of honey. The bees were in a mass in one corner, on the flour, near the opening. Tmme deately above them everything eatable was consumed. WTere they- froze or smothered? Or what ? Will some one irJ orra us through these columns ? Gbapxs. The hardiest and most cer tain varieties of grapes we have grown in Nebraska, are the Concord, Delaware, Clinton, Oporto and Hartford Prolific, in the order enumerated. The Isabella and Catawba we have only succeeded with when covered during the. winter. The ground we occupy, .however, is rather low and rich. We have known these varieties raised on the hill sides success fully in this county. We hare been asked by many persons what variety of Tomatoes are best to cultivate.'- For all purposes we prefer the-Tilden. There ttrerEe?eral more varieties we have'not tned.buf Will'this reason. The Tilden is good size, smooth, eolid, and rather more tart than any other variety. . ; - .. - - - -.-. 4 m California Wheat is said to beaperior to any other, because it is raised without rain from its earliest stages to ripening. This is one of the reasons why Nebraska wheat stands higher in Chicago and St. Louis than any other it is raised with o little-rain. The past winter has been remarkable in many respects. Farmers could have planted here on New-Years day. Many sowed Spring Wheat shortly after the middle of February. In our town, a cumber have already made out door gardens " ' iii L. B, Jakboe, cf ShawneetowD, Kan sas, has tent the Editor of the Prairie Farmer, a fleece of wool from his Span ish Buck, weighing twenty-three pounds. . 'An- experienced nurrymaa & thh State says, in a recent private letter to us, that "the Rambo,-Maiden Bluah Sweet . Romanite, lung of .lomrfcins. Rome Beauty, White and Yellow Belle flower apples will grow too rapidly to be cultivated after j". J " fe ' ; 1 the first year they are transplanted, l know of no fall spple that will bear clean culture in this country." This reminds us cf what several persons in this State have spoken of : That is that the most gratifying results have attended planting fruit trees on the prairie without break ing up more than immediately where the tree is planted. . The Prairie Farmer, of Feb. 20ih, says: "Peanuts were grown last sea son in several parts of Iowa, and are-aid by the producers to be as easily raised as potatoes, and a much surer crop." We have raised them in Nebraska in great abundance. They need, however, to be planted very early. . A friend enquires how about graf'ing peach on plum. In answer we say our sussess in grafting peach on the young wild plum, has been most satisfactory. Graft down close to, or even in .the ground. WTe hope to kiow that every prairie farmer in Nebraska will plant, liberally, trees about their residence this spring. They serve so many purposes we cannot see how they can be dispensed with. Educational Department. j. avt. avr.KEiT2:iE. editor. To the Young Xen of Nebraska. Young men of Nebraska what are you doing? fonder this question a few moments ; ttop in your eager chafe after wealth or pleasure, and ask yourself in soberenes?, "What am I doing?" Whith er tra I tending?'' ''Where will the path I am now trcaimg lead me." Young men do you fully realiae your advantages? hare you erer compared your opportunity with those possessed by youn intn Lfty or even thirty years ago i Have you considered the responsibliiies that must soon devolve on your shoulders. Look around you, you are liring in thrillings times, tiiafcs in which the oil sjttec of darkness and error are being uproot ed, and new and untried systems etatlSshl. Events are crowding thick and fast upon us.'1 The inventive genius of mn 13 dazz'ing the nation with its array of wonderful machinery, and the whole world seems alive and eanrerly pressing forward to higher achievements. Education "is raising the ignorant and degraded to spheres cf intelligence and refinement; the world is moving forward: light is bursticg on the darkened portions of the earth. Yet what are you doing ? whan are your aspirations ? Stop and think. The earnest workers in the mines of knowledge the men cf giant intellects and indomitable -"rot must soon tass away; mankind are march ing forward; your onward march must push your predecessors off the stage: thee who is prepared to fill their plare? Are you? What preparations are you aaking for this task ? Or are you willing to sell your biithright for "a races of pottago ?'' Will you give your bright inheritance to strangers rather then fit yourselves to occupy with honor what God has kindly given your ? What are your aims then ? llave you really given one serious thought to the future or are you dost" ing down the stream of time content to be just what jour are without aa e!Trfc to become a man. Do not deceive yourseif young man, don't think that you can let the Sf ring of life pass by without an tfijrt to inform yourself; to store your mind with knowledge, and still when manhood cozies upon you be honored and respected No! you but de ceive y&u'self; miserable indeed will bo tho' life of that young man' who fails to use the op orta lities afforded him for education. Is there no ambition in your soul, young man ? no longing to become useful and respected in your life? If not your mind is dark indeed. Young men of Nebraska, let me exhort you, throw aside this lethargy ! glorious pro?pcU are before the earnest thinking young man. Educate yourself; let not a few diSculties discourage you; your pathway is not near so rugged as the paths that thou sands of the great and wise have trod befure you. Let not ga or circumstance thwart yoa in your course, but nobly dare the darkest storm3 of ad versity; be fully -determined to make your mark and with the blessings of God giving you health you will make it.

There is to be a Teacher's Institute at Nebraska City cn the same day, and the Execu tive Committee of the State Teacher's Association, meets there the Eame day. This will of necessity takeaway some from the Institute at Brownville. We would therefore, sug gest that the meeting be deferred two weeks, as the Conference of the M. E. Church will bo in session at Feru on Saturday, the 4th of April. Hence, if it will suit all parties, we would respectfully suggest that the meeting of the Institute take place on Saturday, Aprill llth. at 10 o'clock. Learning, since writing the above, that the Institute at Nebraska City will not meet on the 2Sth, as supposed, there will be no reason for changing the time of the meeting at Brownville, which will therefore be on the 2Sth, at 10 o'clock, A. M. Let all lovers of education tarn out and be present. TiiKImhle'Shlllin When the "Racfrers" were on 3uty ihronh-Westero'Illinois. whiskey was a.deplorae.scarce .article, and. the in - ex to purchase it, when found, was equal ly hard to obtain. Among the t)ld Kahgr er's, corn juice was considered as necess ary to subsistence as cornacugers ; but, having received no pay for a period, the small stock as funds had entirely run cm. In the meantime.' an old dealer hud succeeded'in raising two barrels of the comfortable liquid,, and erected a small chanty near the camp, where ashinjle, in chalked capitals declared that "Whis key is arrive at six sences a sue." Major Murdock one of the old veterans, had for two days, in a wofuily parched state, been searching in bis kiverin" for a stray bit he knew was scmewhere about him, but his efforts to chase it up app. ar ed unavailing so many patches on his hunting -shirt, it was impossible to find the one he had made a pocket to contain the precious coin, and at. last -he. had given it up. He tried to get tru3t for two drinks, till he could find it, but the owner of the thanty knew better than to trust any one in that crowd. Try again, major," said a dry crony, who knew, the circumstances; never five ud in a' ecod cause. A shillin' in silver now is worth gold another time. The major did try again, and at last, down in tne seam ot tne tan, tne major discovered the little joke, and perhaps he hailed the discovery with a yell of sat isfaction. "Now. Bill." said he. "we'll give that old feller's barrel a rip for two invigora tors, ai.d no dispute." They accordingly adjourned to the shanty, and called for the medicine." The owner at the maior looked doubt fully, but when he displayed the bit, hes itation vanished he instantly drew the Stick," handed them over, and took the change. The first taste brightened the major as an Indian. He observed, while drinking, that the . dealer placed tbe money on a little shelf behind him, and iust above his head : it was wihin reaching distance, too, from his slaud be sid the temporary counter. Upon this discovery he at once acted. 'Well, really," said he," that -stuff is suthin' like; thar's a body to it that tickles vitality at the extreme pints. Bill," he added, "I could fight-Ingcns at half wages, ef they'd, only feed'me from fuch cow's milk as in that barrel. I think we'll go another." Bill signified assent, but looked at the major with some surprise and inquiry in his countenance, as to, where he would fir.d another bit; but the o'.d Ranger soon opened his eyes wide. The dealer ETad no sooner- stooped . to. draw from .. the barrel, than the major picked the shill ing off the shelf, and paid it over again for the drink. 'I knOTred you had money, major," said the dealer, "ef you could only consent-to shell it out; but you'er getting consarned close-fisted in your old days." The major laughed at the remark, as he replied .- "Well, you're, a cunnin' rarpent, Jo, and bound to makesuthin' out of us fel lers. I declare, that licker is so trem enjus that it's sot me cravin'in my in nards!" "Don't give it up yit, major," chimed in theealer. 'There's more where come from, and the same brewin. I kt o v you have been sufferin' fur these few days past, cause you didn't like to 'open,' and I hated precious bad to refuse you; but whiskey costs a powerful sight afore it gits here." Well, we will tale another atom of a drink, and then lumber," says the will ing Ranger. The shilling was picked off the shelf, and went through the samprocess again, with equal satisfaction. -After swallow ing another round, the Ranger smacked hU.lips, and made a move towards the door, and turned'back again - "I thought you'dT think t better of it, major," said the dealer;-."such stuff as that don'tstav lon2r lin these dij?p;ins You'll go another, I gues3." ' Weil; jest one more," says the major "I declare. I think it war some sech licker that 'tempted Adim instid of an apple as the Scnptur rsez. It is a sufficiently enticin Jo coax a'coon out of a holler log, if the dogs were arter him.' In reaching for the shilling this time the major was so eager, and a lit'Je ex cited withal, that he dropped it down right before the owner of the shanty. "Helloo!" says he; "that thar shel must be gettin' crowded, when they are croppin off or is tr is yours, major?" It's yours now,' answered ihe Rang er. " for these last drinks and, Jo, yer is within' yer may git bit so often. "Thanky, majors thanky," said Joe I II drink that myself. And so he did The major and Bill retired with the honors, and a3 they were passing through tbe door, Jo was feeling on the shel for his shilling; but the hunting shirt coin was all that the search produced. "But, by thunder!" exclaimed he And coming to the door, he shook his fist after the old Ranger, exclaiming "I might hev'knowed a pizen old Ingen killer like you had no money you shan' have another suck out of this barrel, i your old melt and ' gizzard, was freezin insde on you." But the major had had -his dram.
