To Dairymen. The followiug rulofi nnd suggcs tions wo clip from the Fremont Tribune, They are a part of a cir cular issued by the Creamery Asso ciation at Fremont, and will com mend themselves to all who are in the bueinc68 of making butter, as being sensible and timet)'.' The sooner the men and women of Ne braska, reduce their keeping of cows for bnttor making to a scientiGc basis, the more profitable will that bnsinosB bo: RULES. 1. Do not send to the creamery too soon milk from cows which have recently calved. Ndver Hnder any circumstances think of paving the milk from a cow until the calf is at least five days old. 2. Do not send to the creamery milk from cows in any way diseased or maimed. It is unwholesome and unfit for food; therefore unjust to the purchasers and consumers of our butter and cheese. 3. Under no circumstances allow a single cow of your dairy milked till the stables have been well clean ed and all dirt or other substances entirely removed from the cow's udder. 4. Never bring or send milk to the creamery which has not been strained. During tho fall and win ter milk should bo strained twice. Once as soon as drawn lrom the cow, using a strainer pail. The sec ond time through a strainer fitted to the top of your milk cans. 5. Never beat or scold your cows when milking them. "Don't allow them to be worried by dogs or over driven and excited when out of the barn. If you do, the milk will be injured and the amount given by them much less. C. Loud talking should never be indulged, but prohibited entirely while milking. Perfect quiot added to kindness will greatly increase the production of milk in any dairy. 7. Feed your cows freely with corn-stalks, millet, corn and oats ground together or corn or meal mixed with Bhorts; the better you feed tho greater tho flow of milk. The best dairymen feed highest. Don't forget this! Grain fed to milch cows will usually add to the value of the milk product twico the Bum the grain would bring if sold on the m'arkct. 8. Wo shall reserve the right to fir a different price for milk from dairies with half starved, poorly sheltered, or shabbily treated cows, for they cannot give a good quality of milk unless they aro fairly cared for. 9. Provide good warm stables for your milch cows, and during the winter keep them housed the most of the time. This treatment will save you a large amount of feed, besides add much to the flow of the milk. 10. Feed your cows rogularly. 11. Water your dairy just as reg ularly aB you feed them. 12. Milk ovcry cow with the Bamo regularity as the sun rises audi sots. Do not think of beginning to milk at fivo o'clock one morning, and tho next morning at seven. Such irregularity lessons tho amount of milk, therefore will bo very un profitable. 13. Plcaso insist on cleanliness, kindness and regularity; these are threo cardinal virtues in dairying. 14. Never allow your milk to re main over night in tho milk barn or in any other unwholesome place, for nothing absorbs impurities sooner than milk or cream. 15. During whiter ncvor allow your milk to freczo. It must bo kept in tho houso over night, and while taking it to the croaraery it must be protected by covoriug tho cans with blankets, for primo butter and cheeso cannot bo mado from milk and cream which have been frozen. 16. Use-tin milk pails. Wooden pails aro unfit for dairy purposes. 17. Wash and scald all cans ev ery day as soon as they are returned from tho creamery, and once a week Bcour the inside of every can thor oughly with salt, taking particular pains to clean" tho seams and edges. 18. All milk pails and strainers must be washed twico a day (when used) and thoroughly scalded once a da. Milk pails must not be left in the barn over night. 19. D.iirymcn accepting our third proposition will bo expected to keep their milk in a proper place at all times protecting it from impure sur rounding and from the heat in the summer and the cold during the winter, which can be done with but littlo expeusc. 20. Cans used at your homes for cream raising must bo thoroughly washed and scalded every time they are emptied, and should be as thor oughly scoured with salt once a week. "Please do not forget this! 21. During the summer time milk cans or milk pails mu6t not be left in the sun afternoons. It is well to sun them during the morning, but bring them iu at noon or before, giving them the afternoon to become entirely cooled, ready for use at the evening milking. SUGGESTIONS. 1. Do not allow the calves to run with your cows a single day. They often injure the cow's teats, causing them to chap. 2. Tho best time to learn a calf to drink is beforo it has sucked a drop of milk and after it has been with out food long enough to havo a sharp appetite. 3. Do not kill a single calf. Learn them to drink, and at about two week? old give them a little corn, which they will soon begin to eat and with milk and corn, you will be able to raise nil your calves. 4. During the last threo years from ten to twenty farmers and stockmen of Dodge, Saunders and Douglas counties have tried the ex periment of raising calves on corn and grass exclusively, and in every instance they have been successful. These men claim that at a year old, calves so raised were as good as the average of yearlings that had been allowed to ruu with tho cows for six months. What has been done can be done. Please try it. 5. If you have, not winter milk cows we urge you to purchase some at once. Arrangements are being made to havo fresh cows brought from Iowa. One stock dealer as sures us that he can bring fine ones from there and sell them at $35 each. This is cheap. G. One cow bred from a milking family is worth more to a dairyman than three poor or Inferior ones. 7. Do not think of trying to make a dairy cow of one with which a calf lias run for two or more sea sons. This experiment has been tried often, but without success. If a cow has had tho milk drawn from her udder by the calf at her side six to twelve times a day for two or more seasons in succession, how is it possible for the cow to retain her milk to as to give a lull moss twice a day ? S. If you think milking cows docs not p;iy, we refer you to the Penn sylvania dairymen who aro making money by patronizing creameries, though their laud is worth from $40 to $303 per aero and where the cost of producing winter milk is three times as great as hero. 9. The West is to be the future dairy section of the country. Wis consin now makes as good cheeso as is mide in America, and Iowa creamery butter took the first prize in 1S7, wheu it came in competition with butter from different parts of Europe as well as this country. 10. Anyone desirous of hiring laborers who aro experienced milk ers, Mid laud-owners wishing to engage experienced Eastern dairy men to take chargo of dairies for a share of tho proceeds of said dairies, can obtain desirable information by calling on Ihc Superintendent of tho Association. Progress. Fifty years ago, no one would havo Dclievcd that before tho year 1SSI, instantaneous communication would bo had all over tho globe, thoughts traveling like lightnings along the bottom of the ocean, and the bods of rivers, and across the valleys and plains, and over the tops of the highest mountains ; that mon, women and children would be ablo to tall: together fifty or a hundred miles apart just as distinctly aB if they vrere sitting in the same room ; that eight or ten days travel would take us across the Continent, or from America to Scotland ; that even light would le made the vehicle of sound, so thai the reflection of a shadow on a bit c f pclenito would become aud iblo al a considerable distance ; that sound would become so intensified that tie walking of flics on a sheet of paper would strike upon the air like tho prancing of horses, that, witho it the uso of pencil, or paiut, or gn.vcr, or any other tool, build ings, and landscapes, and human faces, and tho faco of tho moon, and anything else that is visible, would bo reproduced with microscopic ac curacj , in a second of time ; that our street!! would be lighted with elec tricity, thuB turning night into day ; that teeth would be drawn and limbs lopped off, without giving the slightest sensation of pain ; not to speak of a multitude of other mar vels, vith which we havo suddenly become familiar. It is safer now to bcliovi too much rather than too littlo. Fome. Lorl Byron was not far out of the way when he defined fame as "being killed in battlo and having your name melled wrong in the Gazette." Thcro is a good deal of emptiness in fame. Somo of tho first men of the world whoso names have been, and will bu, revered by succeeding gen erations, have been called upon to suffer disrespect through bcing'peV sonall.r unknown. The words of Bunthorno: "Oh, hollow, hollow, hollbv!" may well be applied to world y honors. Horace Greeley was once relegated to tho attic of a Chicago hotel, as being a party of no particular consequence. Prof. Agass z was characterized as a crazy Dutchman trying to catch bugs. Gov. Andrew was denied admission to a cimp of Massachusetts volun teers ')y a sentry who didn't know him aad relused to bo convinced. The tragedian Bandmann, on giving his name to the doorkeeper of a thcatrn, was refused admission un less ho could prove what band he belonged' to. Ex-Prcsideut Hayes, at Cle"cland, while trespassing, was shouted to by a policeman: "Hi! there ; get off that grass !" Said Mrs. Younghueband : 'Char ley, w iy is it you never talk" with rao as you did before we were married ? I notice that yon talk fast enough with other women.' 'Dearest,' ho replied, without taking his eyes off tho no'VspaperjTdyjrpu know that people talk to concealthoir thoks ? I havo nothing to conceal from yon, love.' Autnnin ThoHjrlifw. There chii be nothing sadder than the solemn hush of nature that pre cede? tho death of the year. The golden glory of autumn, with the billowy bronze and velvet azure of tho skies above the royal robes of oak and maple, bespeak the closing hours of nature's teeming life and the silent farewell to humanity's gauze underwear. Thus while nature dons her regal robes of scarlet and gold in honor of tho farewell benefit to autumn, tho sad-cyod poet steals swiftly away to the neighboring clothes line, and in tho hour of nature's grand blow out dons the flaming flaunels of his friend out of respect, for the hectic flush of the dying year. Leaves have their time to fall, and so has the price of coal. And yet how sadly at variance with decay ing nature is the robust coal mar ket. Another glorious summer with its wealth of pleasant memories is stored away among the archives of our history. Another gloomy whi ter is upon us. These wonderful colors that flame across the softened sky of Indian summer liko tho gory banner of a royal conqueror, come but to warn us that in a few short weeks the water pipo will be busted in tho kitchen and the decorated wash bowl will be broken. Wo flit through tho dreamy hours of summer liko swift-winged bum ble bees amid the honoysucklo and pumpkin blossoms, storing away perhaps a little glucose honey and buckwheat pancakes for the future, but all at once, like a newspaper thief in tho night, the king of frost and ripe, mellow chilblains is upon us, and we crouch beneath the win try blast and hump our spinal col umn up into tho crisp air like a Texas steer that has thoughtlessly swallowed a raw cactus. Life is one continued round f al ternate joys and sorrow. To-day wo are on tho top wavo of prosper ity and warming ourselves in tho glad sunlight of plenty, and to-morrow we are cast down and depressed financially, and havo to stand off the washerwoman for our clean shirt or stay at home from tho opera. The October sky already frownB down upon us, and its frozon tears begin to fall. Tho littlo birds have hushed their little lay. So has tho fatigued hen. Only a littlo while and the yawning chasm in the cold, calm features of the Thanksgiving turkey will he filled with voluptu ous stuffing and then sowed up. Tho florid features of the polygamous gobbler will be wrapped in sadness, and cranberry pic will be a burden, for the veal cutlet goeth to its long home, and tho ice-cream freezer is broken in tho wood -houso. Oh, time I thou bald-headed pol ican with tho vcnorablo corn cutter and the second-hand hour-glass, thou playest Btrango pranks upon the children of men. No ono would think, to look at thy bilious coun tenance and store tooth, that in thy pony bosom lurked such eccoutric schemes. Tho chubby boy, who danger sig nal hang sadly through tho lattice work of his pants, knows-that. Time, who waits for no man, will ono day, if he struggles heroically on, give him knowledge and suspenders, and a Bolid girl, and experience and a soft white mustache, and ovontually a low grave in tho valley beneath tho sighing elms and tho weoping willow, where, in tho misty twilight of tho year, noiselessly upon his breast shall fall tho dead leaf, whilo tho silent tear of the gray autumnal sky will como and sink into tho yel low grass above his head. Laramie Boomerang. Horenon Despotism. The first colony that wont to Utah was composed of only a fow hun dred people; now the church claims that it rules some 100,000 followers in the Territory. The first corners had a large percentage of Americans, who were drawn into tho toils bo foro tho full enormities of the insti tution were divulged, but of those who havo connected themsclvos with the Mormon church during the past thirty years quite nine-tenths have been from Europe, and from the very lowest classes of European society. The immigration has in creased from a few hundred annu ally to a few thousand. Last year more than 3,000 came, and this year a heavy increase over that number is expected. The children of school age, as returned by the Mormon au thorities, number 40,000. Those too young to attend school, together with those above school age and still under the ago of 25 years, must uumoer .quite du.uuu more, it is clear that the Mormon kingdom in Utah is composed of foreigners and the children of foreigners. It is necessarily so. It is an institution so absolutely un-American in all its requirements that it would die of its own infamieB within twenty years, except for tho yearly infusion of fresh serf blood from abroad. Few Americans could over bo mado to bear the unquestioned and un questioning obedience which is ex acted from this" people. The Gov ernment is an absolute despotism. Every ward in the city, every small precinct in tho country, is under the coulrnl of a Bishop. To him the people have tosubmit all their af fairs; temporal as well as spiritual. His- advice amounts to a command, and a command which must be obeyed. The Bishops report to the elders to the seventies, the seventies to the high piicsts, the high priests to tho Presidents of stakes, they to the patriarchs, they to the twelve apostles, and they to tho President and his high counsellors. Down the same scale the orders aro sent. These leaders arc the same as God to the blinded thousands of Utah. At tho last October conference the burden of the harangues to the peo ple was to impress upon them that the chiefs, being daily and regularly inspired by God, could make no mistake, could do no wrong. The discourse of Elder Orson Pratt is full of this business, and he did not fail to warn all who doubted that they would be damned. At the same conference another elder ex plained that tho people must obey their leaders in financial as well as spiritual affairs, even as tho people did in tho days of Moses. Through such a system it is easy to see how an ignorant aud fanatical people arc held under absolute con trol by the heads of the organization. In Brigham Young's time he was a more absolute rulor than was ever the Czar of Russia. Siuce his death the President, John Taylor, and his first counsellor, Goorgo Q. Cannon, make the controlling power, and give direction to tho whole system. Both aro Englishmen. A favorite expression of Brigham Young's used to be, "We follow the forms of a republic, but this is a kingdom." It is a kingdom, or rather a despotism, so all - embracing that intelligent Americans at a distauce do not bo lieve the truth about it when it is told. C. C. Goodwin, in Harper's Magazine. Ilnving a Competency. I have a neighbor who is always so busy that he has no timo to laugh ; tho whole business of. his life is to get money,moro money, that ho may still got more. lie is still drudging, saying that Solomon says: "The diligent hand makoth rich." Aud it is true, indeed, but he considers not that it is in the power of riches to make a mau happy, for it was wisely said by a man of great, ob servation : "That thore bo as many miseries beyond riches as on this side of thorn." And yet, heaven de liver us from pinching poverty and grant that, having a competency, we may be content aud thankful. Lot us not repine, or so much as think the gifts of God unequally dealt, if wo see another abound in riches when, as God knows, the cares that aro the keys that keeps those riches hang olten so heavily at the rich man's girdlo that they clog him with woary days aud restless nights, cvon where othors sleep quietly. We soe but the outside of the rich man's happiness ; few consider him to bo liko the silk-worm, that, when sho sooms to play, is at tho same timo spinning her own bowels and consuming herself. And this many rich mon do, loading themselves with corroding cares to keop what thoy have already got. Let us there fore be thankful for health and a competence, And, abovo all, for a conscience.

A woman's advice is generally! worth having; so, if you are in any trouble, tell your mother or your wifo or your sister all about it. Bo assured that light will flash upon your darkness. Women are too commonly judged verdant in all but purely womanish affairs. No philo sophical students of the sex thus judge them. Their intuitioiiB or in sight are most subtle, and if thoy can not see a cat in the meal there is no cat there. I advise a man to keep none of his affairs from his wife. Many a home has beon saved and many a fortune retrieved by a man's confidence in his wife. Woman is far more a seer and a prophet than man, if sho be given a fair chance. As a general rnle the wives confide the minutest, of their plans and thoughts to their husbands. Why not reciprocate, if but for the pleas ure of meeting confidence with con fidence ? The men who succeed best in life are those who make confi dantes of their wives. Farming as a profession will rank high or low according to the brain force employed therein. Hurried IMiiner. It is a mistake to eat quickly. Mastication performed in haste must be imperfect even with tho best of teeth, and due admixture of the sa livary secretion with the food can not take place. When a crude iiicsb of inadequately crushed muscular fibre, or undivided solid material of any description, is thrown iuto tho stomach, it acts as a mechanical irri tant, and sets up a condition in tho mucous membrane lining that organ which greatly impedes, if it docs not altogether prevent, tho process of digestion. When tho practico of eating quickly and filling tho stom ach with uupreparod focrd is habitu al, the digestive organ is rendored incapable of performing its proper functions. Either a much larger quantity of food than would be nec essary nuder natural conditions is rcquirod, or tho system suffers from lack of nourishment. Those ani mals which woro intended to foed hurriedly woro cither gifted with the power of rumination or provid ed with gizzards. Mau is not so furnished, aud it is fair to assume that he was intended to cat slowly. Wo must apologize for reminding our readers of facts so familiar; but wo do this in the hope that any who may chance to havo Juflncnco with the managers of large hotels where dinners a la table d'hote are in vogue will take measures to bring about a much needed reform in the manner in which those entertainments are conducted. At the best and most frequented establishments in places of fashiona ble resort, where at this season mul titudes of health seekers are wont to congregate, the hurried dinners are not only causes of annoyance, but actually go far to prevent the benefit which should be derived from a change. No sooner is one course served than another is introduced, without giving tho guest time to digest or even to swallow tho first. Tho eagerness to secure good divi dends takes a particularly mischiov ous form when it piles food on the plate of a customer, and compels him to consume it breathlessly. The matter may seem a small one, but it is not so. Just as a man may go on for years with defective teeth, im perfectly masticating his food, and wondering why he suffers from iu digestion, so a mau may habitually live under an infliction of hurried dinners, and endure the consequent loss of health, without knowjng why he is not well, or how easily the cause of his illness might bo rem edied. Costly WMllin;;. Getting married in New York that is getting married in anything liko style, costs money. A writer who has given the matter consider able study announces that iu the city named a wedding of 1,000 guests, with ushers and bridesmaids, exclu sive of bridal dress and trousseau, ranges anywhere between $1,800 and $3,500. A thoughtful father is said to havo recently put his intended son-in-law up to eloping with his daughter on the express ground of economy. It is better to slide out into the rural districts where $2 will amply requite a justice of the peace for lying tho knot just a securely n it can bp tied by a. priest in clerical robes. It isn't near so much trouble, either, to do this as it is to handle a largo party of white-kidded citizens of both sexes. A Southern journal says this year's rice crop in tho Gulf Stales will reach one hundred and fifty million bushels. It. is predicted that the rice industry will soon rival that of sugar growing iu Louisiana. To think wo aro able is almost to be so to determine upon attainment is frequently attainment itself. Thus earnest resolution has often seemed to have about it almost a savor of omnipotence. The butter product in tho United States for 1880 is estimated by the Department of Agriculture at 1,000, 000,000 pounds, and the cheeso pro duct at 300,000 pounds.
