A. N. Briggs says that he has
always been successful in raising
potatoes on the following plau, viz
Put them into the ground as us
ual except with only about two
inches of dirt over "them. Then,
put on straw to the depth of six to
eight inches. They need no further
attention whatever until you come
to gather them, which is done with
much less trouble than is usual.
Mr. Briggs says there is another
thing in favor "of this method, the
bugs disturb them less. A Colorado
gentleman says that two or three
grains of flax seed planted in a hill
of potatoes is a surety against bugs.

Important lo Farmers.
It is coming to be better under
stood that success in farming de
pends far more upon how much one
gets per acre than upon the number
of acres he cultivates. If a man's
time, teams, seed, implements, etc.,
arc worth or cost $500 a year to cul
tivate 50 acres, and the crops pro
duced, whatever they may be, arc
equivalent to 12 bushels of wheat
per acre, worth on an average $1 per
bushel, he has just $100 lett for in
terest of the land, taxes, etc. If the
crops equal 15 bushels per acre, he
has $250 surplus for land, etc. If
they arc equal to 20 bushels of wheat
per acre, he has $500 surplus; it 25
bushels per acre he has 750. The
same rule holds good for 100 acres,
or any other area. The great ques
tion then is how to increase the yield
per acre, with only the same cost for
labor, teams, implements, and seed.
Scud 15 cents to Orange Judd

- M. Ebcl says that Jos. Springer
recently lost three head of young
cattle, by the same disease that took
oil' so many last fall. Mike says
that the disease is caused by chauge
of feed, and that it can be mostly
prevented by giving regularly of
ashes (wood or corn cob ashes),
mixed with ground feed.

At about half-past nine o'clock

Editor Journal: The open Temple
of the Tionecr Temple of Honor, held at
the new llaptist Church last night, was
the most enjoyable affair that has taken
place in this locality for somo time. At
an early hour iu the evening all the
available fpace in the large room was
taken up by visitors, Templers and their
paraphernalia. 1 will not attempt to go
into details but will confine myself to
the main features and condense as much
as possible.
After prayer by Alonzo Brooks the
entertainment of the evening was for
mally opened with vocal and instru
mental music by 3Ir. II. L. and Miss
Birdie Brooks, followed with a speech
by W. A. Hosford, in which with other
things he furnished statistical proof that
sixty thousand men annually fill drunk
ard graves in the United States, and
live hundred thousand in the civilized
world.
Several lively tunes were played on
the two organs by 3Irs. E. A. Taylor and
her sister Miss Emma Pardee, with
violin accompaniment by 3Iessrs. Nel
son, Saxton, Warren and Hoot Long.
The grand installation of officers was
very impressive, the retiring officers
taking their places with the other mem
bers, and the newly -installed taking
their respective places in the Temple.
31. J. Thompson, our new W. C, in an
appropriate speech explained the origin
and object of the Temple of Honor, and
made a strong appeal to all present to
assist iu the cauee of temperance.
Several songs were sung by II. L.
Brooks and wife, II. B. Kessler and
wife, with organ accompaniment by 31iss
Birdie Brooks.
By invitation of our W. C, short, vol
unteer speeches were made by 3lrs. A.
Brooks, W. W. Tolman, Alonzo drooks,
Kev. A. S. Fonda, II. B. Kessler, Dr.
Saxton, d. K. Smith and others.
Although the vast crowd were disap
pointed by the non-arrival of A. II.
dowen, Grand Worthy Templer of the
State of Nebraska, all agreed that they
had spent au agreeable and profitable
e cning.

The Presbyterians crowded the
residence of the Rev. R. Christison
at the Sociablo announced to be
held hist Wednesday evening, and
had quite a pleasant time of it. By
and by it turned out that this socia
blo was of the character of a sur
prise donation party to the Minister
and his family. The presents were
many and appropriate, amounting
in value to nearly $70.00. Mr. C
tenders his own and the best thanks
of the family, to their friends for
their kindness and liberality.

by the wayside, which our readers

Our country is getting to bo fear
fully alarming, the average of lifo
being lessened every )ear, without

the year especially, a cold is such a
common thing that in tho hurry of
every da) lifo we arc apt to over
look the dangers attending it nnd
often find too late, that a Fever or
Lung trouble has already set iu.
Thousands lose their lives iu this

cure would have resulted, nnd a
large bill from a Doctor been avoid

31k. C. L. Hill: It is clearly illegal,
as the law now stands, to introduce or
Use text books other than those named
on the accompanying list. This list I
have not changed in anv particular, and
it is still the only legal list.
I regret that in many places changes
of text books have been made in viola
tion of law, slnee such changes frequent
ly tend to add additional cost to our
schools without anv compensating ad
vantage. Ycnrs truly,
