While the terrible scourge,
small-pox, is steadily extending its
alarming sway throughout the coun

travel to adopt at once precautionary
measures to keep the dreaded dis

Our city authorities should remem
ber that Columbus is located on one
of those lines of main travel from

every day of the diseabe unless kept

The Grand Island Times speaks
of several farmers along Prairie
creek having lost cattle this season,
6incc they have been turned out into
tho corn fields, supposed to be pois
oned by eating smut, a fungus which
grows on corn. It is always notice
able that where the cattle are given
a feed of hay before being turned
iuto the stalks, or have free access to
water, the mortality is much lessen
ed. Many, of our farmers here' who
lost largely several years ago by the
same cause, supposed it to be due to
a surfeit of dry stalks.

Among improved farms sold
last week by S. C. Smith to settlers
from eastern states are one to Lin
coln Ozias of eastern Iowa, and A
D. Eschlemen of 111. ; of unimprov
ed farms, to the same, and to Mr.
Christison of 111. Now is the time
to buy lands in Nebraska. There
is bouud to be a steady increase in
their value. We would say to our
eastern readers who have large fam
ilies aud a email farm, "Consider the
situation : You could sell your farm
and with the proceeds get a much
larger one of better soil in the West,
put all needed improvements npon
it and stock it with cattle, sheep and
bogs, and make a much greater per
centage on your investment."
One of the wedding guests at

publication last week, from which
we extract as follows: Among the
presents were library lamp, tea set,
silver castor, worsted scarf, fruit
dish, shell comb case, glaSB pitcher,
butter knife, photograph album.
Mr. Wiley has shown much energy
in erecting so fine a residence, which
is very commodious with its tasty
furnishing and, with the accomplish
ed bride to keep it neat, there is the
prospect of a graud future. Mrs.
Wiley has, for some time, been

From Dr. Schotte we learn that
the first sign of this disease (which
is a bad cold accompanied by fever),
is noticeable in the hind parts of the
animal, the legs and abdomen being
swollen. At this stage the animal
needs medicine which will keep'the
bowels open and ail ay the fever, and
for this purpose castor oil and niter
are good. Later, if unchecked, the
complaint will be found lodged in
the throat and head, and noticeable
by sore throat, eyes watering, aching
head, &c. From the first, the animal
should be kept warm, not worked,
and not exposed to draughts of
wind. Many go through the disease
without special treatment. The
greatest dauger is to mares in foal.
The foal is almost invariably slipped,
unless special treatment is given.
The Dr. says that he knows of thirty
five such cases in one neighborhood
in this county. When mares in foal
are attacked, a skillful veterinary
should at once be called. The Doc
tor adds that animals which are fat
aud in good condition when attacked
by this disease, seldom suffer much
(excepting mares in foal), while the
poor ones are pretty sure to suffer
severely, if not die.

The Creamery In it Profitable
te 91111c the Cowm?
Mr. Editor: Facts are stubborn
things. With your permission I
wish to deal with a few facts. Stock
raising has thus far been considered
the most profitable part of farming
in Nebraska, and so it is. When
there was no market for milk and a
poor one for butter, everybody
thought it is better to let the calves
suck than to milk the cows. We all
thought we could raise better calves
and save lots of labor. As to the
raising of better calves, the writer
begins to doubt that. As a rule the
flow of milk from a fresh cow may
increase for a short time, then it will
decrease, but the calf demands more,
and being used to derive nourish
ment from the dam, it is bard to
make it derive it from any other
source. Aud then, when it is to be
weaned (if it ever can be fully wean
ed, some sucking again after years
of separation from the dam) the
trouble begins. A calf that has nev
er sucked will grow right along, a
sucker will loose flesh and stop
growing for awhile.
When tne writer first came here
he asked C. D. Clother if he knew
of a good cow for sale. The old
gentleman replied : "No, and I will
tell you one thing; don't yon ever
buy a cow that had a calf run with
her!' Cows used that way will
never be saleable for family use,
they may only be good for the butch
er when unfit for breeding.
Again, by letting the calves run
with the cows, tho. best milking cows
will be spoiled. As the calves suck
every qow and then, the glands and
other secretive organs will never be
fully developed, and while cows
regularly milked will improvo from
year to year as good milkers, nurs
ing cows will degenerate, and give
less and less milk.
Aud as to the calves, experience
has taught the writer that they will
thrive just as well and may be made
to thrive even better, if fed by hand.
When a few weeks old they can
drink skim milk, and if a little
ground oil-cake can be added they
will grow just as fast and will soon
do well on a little oats and grass.
Fnally, Mr. Editor, which is the
most profitable to let a little steer
calf suck a cow for six months or
longer, then keep it (if you don't
loose it) for two or three years, and
then sell it for $30 or perhaps $25, or
milk the cows for six or eight
mouths and realize from $25 to $50
for cream, in that time? A. U.
A Free Heading: Room.
Mr. Editor: Augustus Caercr
made his boast that he found the city
of Rome brick, and left it marble.
But, even in the days of tho first
Emperor, Rome did not have a free
reading room. Eighteen and a half
centuries later, Columbus has uo
reading room. What was passed
over, as a characteristic of the age of
Augustus, is a standing disgrace, in
the age of Arthur, the untried.
We have a Creamery, a Pork Pack
ing House, and a course of lectures.
All are good, each in its way. A
reading room would be equally
good, but in a different way. When
intelligent business men contemplate
moving to our city, they will first
inquire concerning its educational
and social advantages; no one will
deny that a public .library, aud free
reading room, are promiuent among
the attractions of a town. I know
of a certain institution of learning,
where there are from 40 to 50 stu
dents, all the sons of poor men, and
largely dependent upon their own
exertion for their support while they
are pursuing their studies. These
boys give eacb a dollar from their
scanty means, and with the sum
sustain a reading room, where the
leading religious and secular period
icals of ten states, with the London
Times, are regularly laid on the
shelves. A tax of ono dollar each
levied upon the property-holders of
Columbus, would establish a free
reading room and public library, and
one-fourth of that amount would
keep it iu operatiou. There can be
no doubt that our citizens are as
well able to give the amount named,
as were those poor students. They
(the students), had no other motive
than 6elf-improvement, here there
ii, with this, another motive, the
eclat it would give to the city. It
ought not to require , I presume it
will not require either argument,
or eloquence, to rouse the people of
this city to the importance of this
subject. Western people are usually
quick to discuss the advantage of
such an enterprise. I conceive that
two things are essential to the suc
cess of the undertaking: we must
know that it is possible, aud how it
is possible That it is withiu the
reach of our people to have a free
reading room, the example above
referred to, as well as tho experience
of other towns, will piove. As to
the manner of accomplishing it there
are several ways. I have a plan, of
course, but prefer to let others speak.
I have no donbt that the columns of
the Journal are open to any one
who wishes to discuss this subject.
Business iB now brisk, and there
could not he a more favorable time
to draw it to a Focus.
Of course the columns of the Jour
nal are open, now and always. We
repeat, what we have said before,
that it is a shame and a disgrace for
so large a city as Columbus to be
without a public library, a circulat
ing library, a public reading room,
or some such institution., We are
behind the civilization of our age in
this respect; but when the institu
tion is organized, it should be in the
right way, and mean business in
every respect, as to tho size of the
room, its furniture, the number and
character of the books and periodi
cals, &c. As for the individual
there is nothing will help to stay the
tide of the passions like the cultiva
tion of the intellect, so for the com
munity there is no greater moral
force than that exerted through the
influence of literature, good litera
ture. Sir Isaac Newton's "theory
was a sound one to first fill the
measure with wheat, then no one
would have an opportunity to fill it
with chaff; and this is the true
method of dealing with all wrongs
begin against them at tho earliest
stage by works of prevention and
pre-occupation. The mind actuated
by pure motives and filled with
good thoughts has no need and no
room for vain follies, but will make
the most and tho best of this our
human life. It is only by the culti
vation of that which ip good withiu
them that our youth are encouraged
to go forward in the path of virtue
and honor, and it is especially be
coming in thoee whose children arc
stepping upon the stage of action, to
take a lively interest in furthering
every good word and work, and
especially intellectual enjoyments,
which do great good and no harm.

Thanking you for past favors, aud
