Uncle Sum's Koy'a.-.
The attention of Uncle Sam's mail
boys between the Journal office
and Levi Frecman.'s residence at
Newman's Grove is particularly
directed hither. Mr. Freeman writes
us saying that he "can get the paper
only every two weeks and some
times not that often. The post
master says it does not come to the
office."
We don't kno to just where the re
sponsibility rests. We put up, in
one pack, for Newman's Grove, five
Journals, every week. If ouo gets
there all should go. As wc have no
complaints from other subscribers
at Neman's Grove, wc conclude that
the trouble is with tho postmaster
al that place.

We are in receipt of the following
from Dawn, Mo., under date of
May 9ih. The Journal is ever
ready to clasp hands with tho earn
est, faithful minister who strives to
be useful in his day and generation :
"Our dear brother Thomas of Co
lumbus, Neb., having come to our
Association by invitation, we are
much pleased to see him, and listen
to his powerful and effective preach
ing. His eloquent sermons and ex
cellent lecture on spiritism have
made deep and lasting impression
on the people, and his winning ad
dress and genial company have mul
tiplied his friends in these regions,
who arc sorry to part with him so
soon. Next Sabbath he will preach
for the Baptist church of Caldwell,
Mo., and on the ISth for the Baptist
churches of Hiawatha, Kan., and
Aspinwall, Neb. Then he intends
returning home. May the Great
Master bless his efforts and crown
his labors with abundant success.
Yours respectfully,
Eld. T. W. Da vies."

longlook Club
A paper written by Judgo J. G.
Higgins on Forest Tree Culture, was
read by the Secretary, which, by re
quest of the Club, will be published
in full in the Journal. It contains
very many valuable suggestions.
Sonic discussion arose among the
members of (he Club, upon a ques
tion by Mrs. J. H. Reed as to the
dying off of coltonwood trees. Mr.
Griffin said he had been told that
after three years of age, cotton woods
suffered by cultivation. Mr. Ernst
corroborated Mr. niggins's assertion
that tho cotlouwood flourished
where there was abundance of
moist ure by giving an instance of a
cottouwood 8 years old, one and a
half feet iu diameter, with roots as
big as his arm and 22 feet long, fol
lowing the well curbing to the water.
He was satisfied they flourished best
in a moist, sandy soil.
In the "drawer" were queries as
to the desirability of barbed-wire
fences, and as to the relative merits
of horse aud hand cornplantcrs. All
who spoke on planters signified
strong preference for the horse
planter, for uniform depth as against
shallow and irregular planting by
hand-planter; aud because it packed
the ground above the seed. It was
slated also that the rows could be
better kept in shape. If the hand
planter had any friends in the club,
they didn't champion its cause.
The discussion of barbed-wire,
iron fences showed that the mem
bers of the Club were in favor of
some method, of more clearly indi
cating to animals the location of
the fence than was possible by the
use of wire only. Some suggested
a (op board; others objected that
this would requiro additional iron
posts every eight feet, which would
make it too expensive. Judge Hig
gins had seen zinc used in place of
the upper wire. Instances of great
danger and injury to man and beast
were given by Jacob Ernst and P.
S. Griffin, and the discussion was
closed.
The reader of selections read two
articles from the Farmers' lievieio,
"How to Make a Farmers' Club,
Interesting," and "The Lightning
Rod Dispenser." a farm ballad by
Will Carleton.
The latter very neatly as well as
fully expresses the feelings of a
farmer who ''signed an agreement to
pay so much a foot,"aud was "stuck"
for ;?200.

We can desire no better when in

there is no occasion for thi3 feeling,

against doiii any damage to any prop

any trues, shrubs or flowers not their
own. The association have adopted this
motto for the cemetery grounds. Tho
well-bred will do no wrons; on this
sacred ground, the ill-bred shall not.
l'ureiits arc cautioned against per
mitting their children to visit tho
cemetery unless in company with some
responsible person, as these little ones
often do harm when no wrong is intend
ed. The price of burial in the Potters
tield has been fixed at three dollars,
which sum will be charged in all cases
except where the secretary is satisfied
of the indigency of the applicant, that
course has been found necessary on
account of recent and contemplated ex
