Two brief articles have beeu pre
pared ami published, and left stand
ing iu the Journal, relative to
Nebraska, its advantages aud pro
ducts. One more short article must
cloc the scries for this season.
To persons who never saw a "prai
lie country, to look over it ip rather
an interesting sight ; as u general
thing the abseuce of timber gives to
it the appearance of waste nnd bar
renness to those who arc accustomed
to live in a timbered couutry. Tim
ber of every kind common to this
latitude can bo cultivated on the
prairies of Nebraska. Near the wa
ter courses and river blufl's a large
quantity of trees are generally found
growing in great luxuriance.
Among the varieties found in such
localities are cottonwood, box-elder,
buckeye, maple, locust, ash, hickory,
oak, willow, poplar, sycamoro, wal
nut, pine and cedar. The shrubs
include common juniper, pawpaw,
prickly ash, sumacs, red root, spin
dle tree, plum, currants and goose
berries, dogwood, butter bush, buffa
lo berry, mulberry and hazleuut.
Cedars are found on the islands of
the Platte, aud along tho Loup, aud
on the Niobrara there is a largo
quantity of pino.
But the interesting poiut we want
to make is the fact that all this
variety of trees will grow and flour
ish on the prairie, and that as much
timber as may be needed by each
farmer can be raised on his farm.
It is not a little surprising to know
that the early travelers, and, among
others, Gen. Fremont, should have
formed the opinion that the prairies
of Nebraska were a sandy desert,
unsuited for farming purposes, when
in these times it has been examined
by competent judges and pronounc
ed without any hesitation to be a
region which is to be the great grain
and stock -producing area of the
continent. Men don't make bread
of saud, and they don't, as a general
thing, settle in such localities. The
United States cover 23 degreos of
latitudo ; away to the frozen north,
aud down to tho semi-tropic eouth.
With all this choice, from the be
ginning of western settlement tho
great current of movement has been
within a central bolt five or six de
grees in width, and nearly corres
ponding with the latitudinal length
of Illinois, which lies between 3G
degrees, 56 minutes and 42jj degrees.
This is the belt in the United States
in which industry obtains tho most
certain and highest rewards. It is
tempcrato in climate and a man
can work tip to hi3 best nolo h. The
land is fruitful, and bears iu great
Tb
e Kond .uv.
ed, and over two hundred wounded.- abundance those products which are
necessaries of life, and which there
fore have a steady commercial value.
Tho population of Nebraska in the
beginning of 185(5 was 10,710, and at
the close of 1S75, 259,912, which was
a tweuty-Gve-fold increase in twen
ty years.
Corn iu Nebraska is most bounti
ful in production ; with fair cultiva
tion the yield is from 50 to 60 bush
els per acre. Wheat from 15 to 25
bushels per acre. Barley from 30 to
40 bushels. Rye 25 to 30 bushels.
Oats 40 to 50 bushels. A country
which is adapted to the raising of
corn; small grains; good for grass
and hay, and has at all times a fa
vorable climate, must bo a good
location for stock-raising. Live
stock is in great demand the civilized
over, and it is in live stock the far
mer fiuds a great deal of his wealth.
It has beeu demonstrated among
the Nebraska farmers that mixed
farming is the most profitable, there
fore every farmer should combine
grain and stock raisiug. In fact
every farmer that has carried cattle
upon his farm aud handled them
with judgment lor any length of
time is now enjoying tho rich profits
of his investment aud labor. Look
around among y'o'ur noighbors aud
in every caso where money has been
invested in stock and handled with
care it has brought the largest in
crease jn dollars and cents to those
who have invested. And there is
room in Nebraska for hundreds of
thousands more farmers.
Editor Journal: Tho article iu
'our "iiapcr of 21st calling atteutiou
to the now road law was timoly,
lhough I think that iu matters of
general interest as this is, that our
State authorities should not be ex
pected to make an appropriation for
its publication, but that our local
papers ought to feci public spirit
euough to give their readers ex
tracts from such laws sufficient to
show their bearing without going
into the dry details, and this would
cost them no more than somo dull
prosy article which might be dis
pensed with. The publication of
tho article referred to makes mo
more desirous to see more of tho
law, and I hope the County Com
missioners at their next meeting
will direct so much of the law as
will euablo tho general public to
understand its workings to bo pub
lished at the expense of the couuty,
as I believe it will bo money judi
ciously expended, but before I for
get it I may say that I look upon the
paragraph as very defectivo and
showing a need of amendment, as it
was clearly not made by farmers.
In our precinct there aro probably
40 or 50 miles of public roads, and
it can therefore bo readily seen the
amount of labor it entails upon the
supervisor, over his legitimate du
ties, whiio the law at the samo time
limits his compensation (uo matter
how many days he may be ongaged)
to about $30 or $35 per anuum,
which will have tho effect of dis
couragiug competent persons from
accepting the position of supervisor.
Now, it appears to me that a more
just aud ratioual mode of accom
plishing tho same result would bo to
divide tho number of miles of road
in oach precinct by the number of
tax-payers, aud lot the supervisor
assign to each his portion of road,
on which grass or weeds are to bp
mown and it should bo his duty to
see that it was rightly done; but
oven this wise measure of precau
tion would havo availed nothing in
the recent disastrous fire in our
precinct when the devouring elo
meut leaped ovor guards at least six
rods in width, entailing a loss in the
aggregate of from $1000 to $1500, but
whatever the effect of tho law as at
present constituted, by all means,
gentlemen of the board of County
Commissioners, let us know its
bearings. Monroe.

The democrats of Now York in
holding their stato conventions to
scud delegates to Cincinnati appear
to divide off into two factions, Til
don and aiiti-Tilden. The regulars
decline to embrace the Sachems of
Tammany, aud the latter send a del
egation of their own to Cincinnati.
It appears that the strong faction
which has grown up in New York
with John Kulley at the head claims
thut Mr. Tilden's grandfather and
other relatives were tories during
the revolutionary war. Kelley
thought it was natural that some of
the blood of tho father was in the
son. Tho faction headed by Kelley
deplore the division in tho party,
winch they claim conies from the
persistent efforts of one man to con
vert tho party to a personal machine
to secure a uomiuatiou to the presidency.
Part of the wall and roof of the
Madison Square Garden building at
Now York city fell with a crash on
the 21st upon the dancers inside,

and groans were heard on every

persons were killed and a great
many injured. Tho loss to the
building id estimated to be not loss
than $40,000. Wm. H. Vanderbilt

vestigating tho phenomena of the
recent storm that swept away tho
most of the town of MarshflcItl,Mo..
and says that everywhere along the
track of the tornado there is evi
dence of a wave of water followiug
in the rear of the cloud spouta. In
some places only faint traces of such
a wave wore to be seen ; at others
the dobris is carried up and over
obstructions two to three feet high.
These waves or currents flowed iu
greatest volume up hill. There are
places where tho entire top of the
hill is washed away by the currents.
K'j!y to "A Farmer."
Mk. EniTon :---I am very glad you
published "A llejoinder'' by "A
Farmer" to my article "The Other
Side Again ;" because I see from it
that wo are gradually getting nearer
to each other. I infer from his
words that he is no friend of alco
holic poisons that the money secur
ed from licenses to sell such stuff is
not applied to the families of those
made doaolate by their use, simply
proves that our sage9 at Lincoln are
not as wise as tho rustic preacher
down in old "Kentuck" where they
make the good (?) Bourbon whis
key. Passing a distillery one day,
he was accosted by the owner, who
offered him a dollar, remarking:
"Mr. B., I would like to give you a
dollar, but may be you will not take
it, knowing it was made by making
whiskey." "I shall certainly take it
and relieve at least a littlo of the
mil cry you cause, in the world, by
making whiskey." Your writer, Mr.
Editor, would bo in favor of not
causing any such misery, then there
would be no need of any relieving
that kind. "Whiskey and all alco
holic liquors aro very useful, like
the pins iu the little boy's composi
tion. He stated that pins saved
thousands of lives, and being asked
by his teacher, "how so ?" he replied
"by people not swallowing them."
Thus alcoholic liquors would save
thousands of lives by people not
swallowing them, whilo now they
are destroying thousands of lives by
being swallowed. 1 also perfectly
agreo with our friend, "A Farmer,"
as to tho necessity of doing some
thing to securo somo favorable leg
islation in regard to sheep husbandry
and other intorests of the farmers of
this groat agricultural State. May
little Massachusetts or Rhode Island
depend on her shoemaking and on
spindles Nebraska's future as well
as present prosperity is in hot agri
culture. As "A Farmer" seems to
be deeply interested in the welfaro
of our husbandry I flud in that fact
another cause of shaking' hands
with him and of saying: "Let us
havo peace."
But bofore closing, Mr. Editor, I
would suggest another topic for
discussion : what has- become of
our Agricultural Couuty Fair? Arc
there not public spirited, large
hearted farmers enough iu Platte
county to givo it a new start with
out any horse-racing, without any
monoy-making and other side in
terests? Breeder.
Reports of great destruetiou of
lifo and property still continue to
come in from tho recent tornado in
Missouri. At nearly evory place
touched by the hurricane dreadful
havoc was niado of houses, barns,
fences and trees, but the fatalities,
although numerous in tho aggregate,
were not anywhere else so sweep
ing as at Marshfield.
D.w'r. May, supposed to be a
former resident of Lincoln, Neb.,
was run ever by a train from Boston
to Dcadham the other day, and in
stantly killed. The above name was
in the lining of the victim's hat, and
the initials of the same were on his
shirt bosom. Ilo was about forty
years of are aud it appears to bo a
case of suicide.
