He is just the kind of man this country needs by the thousand to occupy, subdue and grow rich in. Among a list of newly appointed postmasters, subject to confirmation, published in the Chicago Times and Tribune appears the name of H. J. Hudtoc as postmaster at this city. The storms of this winter are another warning to farmers that even in Nebraska stock must be provided with good shelter and plenty of feed handy to avoid losses and damage. Mr. A. Henrich will have a sale of stock, etc., at his farm near Post rille on the 21st inst. He offers a thorough-bred Durham that should not be allowed to leave Platte county. A runaway team crossed the Loup bridge from the south Monday after noon and were stopped near Gillett's corral- "We did not learn who was owner of the team or of any damage done.

In another place one of onr most enterprising farmers gives hia experi ence on the straw problem, and comes to a very sensible conclusion. By the way, &a a bedding for horses, cows, hogs, etc., straw cannot be excelled. MMatgRRa - J9 The traditional groand-hog day (Fed. 2d), was favorable for an early spring, bat if the little animal was rash enough to stay ont of hia hole he most have perished in the storm; bat it was a "ground hog case" and we J mast believe that he did it. fcFarmers who wish to bay the cheap lumber that is being offered in this market, may find it to their ad vantage to call upon as for the money we :an furnish it en good terms.

He was in splendid good humor and we discovered that he was hogging himself because his stock had all passed through the storm safely and are in good shape. He says that with good shelter and plenty ot feed handy, the storms have no terror for him. R. M. Sibbett, a well-known real estate agent of David City and Ulys ses, Batler coanty, was arrested yes terday afternoon by Sheriff Ensign, on complaint of James T. Barnum, who charges him of obtaining money under false pretences. The amount claimed by Mr. Barnum is in the neighborhood of 11,400. Lincoln Journal. If the storm of last Saturday was not quite an old-fashioned ''blizzard," it was near enough to it for all good practical purposes in this section of country. It is feared that the great stock men of the western part of the state have met with large losses again, as they did two years ago. Howev er, the present bright weather may mitigate the severity of the season so as to save many herds from depletion. The Ulysses Dispatch says the jury in the Thompson tragedy case have rendered a verdict that the three deceased parties came to their death by poison, administered by unknown hands. The analysis proved that the poison was in the sugar, which makes the case all the more mysterious. The probability is that the manner in which the poison came to be in the sugar will ever remain a hidden secret. N.G. Bonesteel returned last week from a trip up through the northwest ern part of the state and the edge of Dakota. His object waa to view the country with the possibility of locat ing in business somewhere in Dakota. He got storm bonnd and returned without seeing much of that country, Dot aoes not seem very ravoraDiy im pressed. "We think that N. G. will hardly swell the list of the business interests of anv of Dakota's towns. One of Henry Gass' hearse horses got out of the stable Monday and with the harness on started up 11th street for a playful run. Becoming fright ened he tore along the U. P. track and- t ran into the culvert west of the depot, and had succeeded in getting near the center before losing bis footing. A freight train was coming in at the time but the engineer discovered the situation in time to stop before reach ing the horse, otherwise a serious dis aster would probably have resulted. With considerable difficulty the horse was extricated uninjured. A number of our citizens have begun the work of prospecting for coal on Mr. Gregg's farm adjoining Genoa. The exact depth attained by them we have not learned. But they have struck a strata of genuine slate rock, a specimen of which was shown to us. They also passed through a strata of parites of iron, from which some beautiful specimens were select ed. This dazzling, glittering mineral, which deceived sp many of the early gold hunters, is beautiful to look at. The boys are sanguine in their search I after coal. Genoa Leader. At a recent meeting of the Colum bus Driving Park & Fair Association the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: J. E. North, Pres ident; R. H. Henry, Vice President; G. G.

It was decided to hold a meeting in June for speed, and the premiums offered lo be limited to $600, and the coanty fair be held on Sept.

That you, twelve years younger than I am, Would promise to marry a man! To think, after all of my warnings, Though old maids seem under a ban Tet 1'd'rather be one all my life time Than ever be bound to a man. Mat no doubt you think Ned just charm ing. And I do not know that I can Say much against the young fellow. He' a all well enough for a man. But you've never tried house keeping, Nr had to worry and plan, Been teased by a parcel of children And ruled over by a man. And, Abby, they're all so deceiving, To trust them you never can, Thank the Lord! I've never been tempted To join hands with any map. And I never will what is that, Abby? Deacon Smith at the door, did you say? I wonder now what 'tis that man wants, Coming here at this time of day! "Wants to see me alone in the parlor," Why Abby! Is that what he said? O mv! 1 am all in a flutter, I feel just like logins my head. Yes, Abby, the deacon has asked me To be his companion through life, And I told him I'd do my endeavor To make him a kind, faithful wife. I thought of his ten, orphan children, All needing a mother, you know, And when I'd considered it over I thought 'twould be sin to say, no. What to do with. Straw. Jnst what was the best way to man age my straw to get the most good and least annoyance from it, haa been a good deal of a study with me. To stack it in the field and let cattle ran to it during winter, is in many ways undesirable. The tramping of the stock arouna the stack and going to and from it, is hurtful even to our soil. The manure is not left where we want it. The cattle are often exposed to cold and storms going, coining and at the stack, and in my case at least, have to be watched while out, or they are sure to get into mischief. Often a large amount of straw is left till we need the field. To barn it then is wasteful. Piled np, and left to rot, if is troublesome when we come to cul tivate the field, and in oar dry climate will not rot in any reasonable length of time. Last spring, after a long siegaof not very patient work trying to get rid of the soggy bottom of a big stack, I determined to leave no more straw in the field. My last crop of small grain occupied a field reaching from half a mile to a mile from the barn. "When we came to stack, we were much hur ried for time, but we hauled all the grain home and stacked as near the cattle yard as we could. "When we threshed we moved the fence next to the stacks into the yard far enough to permit stacking the straw between it and where the grain stood. After threshing we moved the fence back, enclosing the straw in the yard. I took account of the extra tigie it took to haul the grain and expense of mov ing the fence twice, also the time and help saved in threshing by having all the grain in one place and near the barn ; I found 1 had my straw nicely stacked in the yard, at actually less expense than we would have been to if the grain and straw had been stack ed in the field. I have never valued straw for food for young cattle and dry cows so highly as I do bow. My cattle have bad all the well-cured hay they would eat up clean, twica a day, bat they would dig away at the straw early and late, often not leaving it for their hay. The straw from 125 acres ot good grain is now almost entirely gone, and the bulk of it has been eaten. Being well stacked, but little was wasted. I am fully satisfied that my cattle have done better on the straw and hay together than they would have done on hay alone, with all they would eat, and the saving of hay has straw niles to eat out of the wav in knAn st v AAttiffAMI hln 1 ha Wa A the spring, and have a much larger amount of valuable manure in the yard than 1 would have bad, if the i rK :Zm nnTt- pleased with the experiment, and be - ueve that many farmers wno are accustomed to leave their straw in the field would be much better satisfied if they arranged -to stack it in their b cattle varas.
