Superintendent Moncrlef has pre pared a circular to issue to School Boards,of the couaty, comprising sug gestions for the annual mettingi &c, based upon the school lawB The advantages in dealing at Kra mer's are these : All goods are mark ed in plain figures, one price for everybody, the largest stock, the low est prices aud the latest styles. Remember that the Columbus Drug Store is the Old Reliable, where you get just what you want, nothing substituted. Prescription work a specialty. Dowty, Weaver, & Co. We understand that the bridges here will be put in order, so soon as the river gets settled down to regular business. It is thought now that there will be no trouble by overflow or gorging this season, James Burrows believes in rais ing corn, oats and barley, but the lat ter he thinks, is as a rule, sown too thin to produce well. Small grain of any kind should cover the ground, so as to choko out the weeds. Dr. S. A. Bonesteel starts shortly for an extended trip in Europe in the interests of his profession. He ex pects to visit London, Edinburg, Dub lin, Paris, Vienna, Berlin and Rome, and may be gone three or four months. Frank Miller has moved his house (one door north of Geer & Reeder's) to the Bottom. Wm. Lamb, who owns the ground on which it has been standing, desires to erect there on a two-story brick, if he can com plete arrangements. Away from home for news : the Fremont Tribune says : "Major Frank North, of Columbus, will make an effort to have a reunion of the Pawnee scouts at the G. A. R. reunion at Hastings next fall. There are several of these Pawnee chasers in this vicin ity who will probably want to reune' with them." Some forty persons, old and young arrived here last week Irom Virginia and North Carolina. Mr. David Hale, who accompanied them said that there were twenty more to come, and that they purposed locating in Madison county. The Hales have done considerable towards settling up their portion of Nebraska. Now is the time for the confidence man in some distant city to seek to gull the farmer by offering to Bend a few bushels of extraordinary seed wheat, oats, corn or barley free, if the farmer addressed will only send a dollar to pay for the sacking, &c. The dollar sent, Mr. Farmer will never see a kernel of the miraculous grain. Ex-commisBioner Robert H. Hen ry was on the Ctb, appointed commis sioner to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of II. J. Hudson. A large number of citizens petitioned the appointing board to take this action. The public generally understand that Mr. Henry will closely scrutinize all bills presented, and stand solidly against what he believes is not right. Charles Fisher, formerly tele graph operator here, is back from California on a business visit of more or less length, according to circum stances. Charles's old friends and acquaintances will be glad to learn that he is heart), rugged in appear ance, and has had good health, the main reason probably being that his life has been considerably in the open air. The Norfolk JTetcs publishes a detailed statement of the affairs of the Madison county treasury, which shows that the absconding, ex-treasurer Fritz was "short", $ 18,411.43. The funds especially lacking were State general, State apportionment, State school aud University land, county general.county sinking.county bridge, and the county district school fund to the amount to $3,854.71. The ground has been cleared west of S. C. Smith's land office, and it is generally supposed that a building is to be erected thereon for Mr. Hud son's store, and that the post-office will be located in the rooms now oc cupied by him, removing all the par titions. Of course this is given for what it may seem to be worth. The location is interesting to many of our readers, and we give the best news obtainable. Byron Millett, Esq., formerly a citizen of this city, has formed a part nership with Hon. A. J. Sampson in the practice of law, at Denver. Mr. Millett is a well-read lawyer aud with his industrious habits of research, can not fail to make an impression on the members of the profession in Colorado. We have known Mr. Sampson from his young manhood, and the place he has earned as an attorney of large practice has been due to his native talent, his indomitable purpose and his untiring industry. Cearratmlateiy. On Friday last, a number of the members of the Columbus Bar met, and determined that during the even ing they would tender Judge A. M. Post a bauquet as a fitting method of expressing their appreciation of the Judge and his appointment. At about ten o'clock the Bar and invited guests assembled in the din ing room of the Clother House, and the time passed right merrily until the small hours of the night in feasting and speeches. Judge Higgins arted as toast mas ter, and introduced the exercises in a bappy, short speech to which Judge Post responded with very suitable sentiments. The toasts. responded to were, Our New Judge, by Judge Geer; the true judge, S. S. McAllister ; the true law yer, J. L. Sullivan; the lawyer a necessity, J. G. Reeder ; the law and the press, A. B. Coffroth ; the Bench aud Bar, M. K. Turner; the Governor of Nebraska, J. M. Macfarland; our laws, W. A. McAllister; the law as a science, A. C. Turner; the laws as affecting the progress of the west, C. A. Speice ; early times in Platte coun ty, J. W. Early ; legal rights of mar ried women, W. M. Cornelius; the execution of the laws, Sheriff Kavan- augh ; happy homes of the west, J. E. North; the collection of fees, C. A. Newman; things in general, H. J. Hudson. Others who could not be present, sent their excuses. If we should undertake to give all that was said we should be compelled to use a page of the Journal, and then not be able to faintly outline the mental pictures; suffice to say that there was weighty wisdom in small chunks and nimble wit in large meas ure, with good humor through all. The following resolutions were unanimously adopted : Wbebeas, Our much esteemed brother A. M. Post haB been lately appointed by the Governor of this State to fill the office of Judge of the Fourth Judicial District of Nebraska, therefore Resolved, That we, the members of the Platte County Bar, do most res pectfully acknowledge the honor his excellency has confered upon the Bar of this county by the appointment of one of its members to the high and honorable position of judge of said district, and be it further Hesolved, That we do heartily en dorse his excellency's choice, knowing as we do, by a long and intimate ac quaintance with Judge A. M. Post that he will maintain the honor of the judicial ermine and add new lustre to it by bis legal attainments, integrity, and fine scholarship, and further Hesolved, That we congratulate Judge Post on his appointment, and sincerely wish him a long and honor ablo career upon the Bench. Communicated. Nebraska State Teacher's Anno elation. The educators of Nebraska will be represented by a large number of prominent workers at the annual ses sion which soon convenes in this city and nearly every city and county of the state will have its educational in terests mauifested by the attendance of one or more teachers who are de voting their lives to the cause. The methods and discussions aris iug from their presentation will be a valuable feature of the association, but not less so will be the interchange of thought on the neede, growth and tendencies of our educational system. The schools of the state aro indebt ed in a considerable degree to the labors of the teachers who come to gether and plan and zoalously advo cate measures fur the improvement of the system and the dissemination of the history or the progress being made. The record of the past will stimulate every earnest worker to excel in the coming efforts, thus new life will be aroused in the schoola and students pursuing a course of study will eagerly look forward to the meeting of these workers as a means of their own advancement in the ways and meanB of acquiring good edu cation. The object is one worthy the atten tion of all interested in the training and instruction of the yonng. It is of practical importance that so far as possible every teacher should be present, encourage the attendance of any who look forward to an early be ginning in the labors of the school room, and in some way add to its yalue by carrying its influence into the class room by the use of such methods as are found to be practical and timely. Teachers can by active co-operation render the services of each much more valuable, and thus redeem them selves in the fulfilment of the obliga tions imposed on them when they enjoyed the privileges of the free school system, and also place them on vantage ground, giving them increas ed information at a slight expendi ture of effort on the part of each. It is suggested that the meeting of the Teacher's Association will give our teachers an excellent opportunity to become acquainted with each other, and to glean valuable information. IJ. The Royal Canning Co. of Musca tine, la., for the season of :82, paid out to the farmers of that section for produce about $50,000, and to the boyB aud girls for labor alone in the pre paratory departments $13,000. The cauniug trade has grown to immense proportions it is estimated that of tomatoes alone, last year, there were put up 52,000,000 cans, and the mar ket bare to-day. As the Oskaloosa Herald remarks, this would be a fit subject for moneyed men of enterprise to look into, as a good investment of money, and a benefit to the commu nity. At the Grand Prairie Farmers' Alliance meeting on the 2d, D. L. Bruen made a speech on our recent legislature; Geo. Stretter furnished music on the accordeon ; J. S. Free man a speech on the record of the Republican party; Jacob Judd, a song. On motion, it was decided that each member attend the county alliance, also that the next meeting be held at the Redenbaugh school house, March 20, '83, 8 p. m. The farmers of that vicinity are cordially invited to attend. Ceaaty Alliance. The County Alliance will be held at the Field House in Platte Center, on March 17th, at 10 o'clock a. m. Each Alliance in the county is re quested to send a full delegation, as there is some important business to be transacted. Niels Oleson, Pres. J. S. Fbeeuan, Sec. 45-2 SparScs front Granville. J. E. Moncrief, Co. Supt, visited the school in district No. 60 Wednes day last. A Next Saturday, so I have heard, the Postville literary will hold its last meeting for this winter. A large crowd is expected. H. Chapman, of St. Bernard, has been very successful in raising fruit trees, grape vines, etc., and has quite a fine collection on hand. Mrs. Chas. Wrestler is going to Minnesota to visit relatives, while Mr. W. makes a tour to Washington Ty. in search of a new Eldorado. J. H. Milslagle has commenced his spring work with sowing oats, and reports sod to be in the best condition- ior narrowing mai ue ever ueeu it iu. Rev. A. J. Wright has rented Chas." Wrestler's farm for this season. He will now be much nearer to the churches wherein he officiates for merly 20 miles away. Mar. 7, '83. Youno Reporter. " Wfelck ? To the citizens of Columbus: In a few weeks you shall have the opportunity of showing your appre ciation of education and advancement- by your reception of its chief :prot moters, viz., the teachers or the State. Shall they find closed doors, or open houses and hearts? The former can but cast a shadow upon the fair fame of our little city. , then let it be the; refuso .the euteruih- latter. Shall we ment which smaller towns have given ? Shall we be called narrow and selfish ? Never. Let us all join in giving a warm welcome to those who for many weary days and hours have labored for the progress and improvement of your children, hoping that with their coming, comes a new impulse to the wave that brings us intellectual cul ture and advancement. Receive them and make Columbus a synonym for hospitality, remembering that in so doing each may entertain "angels una wares." M. E. C. There is no doubt as to the ability and the disposition of Columbus peo ple to entertain their guests hand somely. Ed. Pofltville Items. Our respected neighbor,William M. Arnold, Esq., who has for several termB served faithfully as justice of the peace but has lately resigned has been sorely afflicted. His young est child got hold of some concentrat ed lye, ate some of it and put some in its eye. Dr. Armstrong was imme diately called but could not do any thing to save its life, and 60 only re lieved its sufferings which ended in its death after 11 hours. The bereav ed family has the heartfelt sympathy of all the neighborhood. Our neighbor Henrich has already filled the vacancies made iu his stable by some purchases of young Btock. He went east and brought home a young four-legged gentleman of the bovine tribe, for which he paid $150. Those that have seen the fellow pro nounce him A, No. 1. Others look upon tho old squire as having some foolish notions in his head for paying snch a price for a mere calf, but, Mr. Editor, there is a difference in calves, there being even some two-legged ones, but you may rest assured that the old man is not one. Well, let him be wise or foolish, he will have to foot the bill himself, and your correspond ent rather considers him as not march ing exactly with the rear guard. It is a sure fact that the introduction of good stock is of great aud general benefit to the country. Farmers along Shell Creek are get ting ready for spring work. The old creek as well as its tributary Elm Creek have behaved admirably thus far. We had some fears of high water, as in so many parts of the world great floods have caused terrible destruction of life and property. But the snow has so gradually passed off, thawing during the middlo of the day and freezing at night, that now all danger seems to be over. The Postville literary will close next week for the present season. Its sessions have not been disturbed this year by rough outsiders and have been pleasant and profitable. More Next Time. For the Journal. Alfalfa (IHedicago Mativa.) Mr. Editor: Will you allow me to answer quite a number of inquiries at once through your widely-read paper? Alfalfa of Chilian, sometimes called "Luzerne," of French origin, and in some parts of Germany called "Ewiger Klee" ( eternal clover ) because it seems to last forever, is a forage plant. Your writer bought three pounds of seed last year at 40 cts. a pound, and sowed it on 100 square rods of well cultivated land as soon in spring as he could. This was too little seed for the patch, as it requires about 10 lbs. to the acre, hence this little field would have required about, or nearly 6 lbs. It grew nicely and was about the first of June, 8 or 10 inches high. We then commenced to cut and feed shoats on it. They ate it eagerly and got fat on it. There were about 40, and I think it lasted us about a month, and when we were through cutting, it bad grown about as high again at the place of beginning. From that time we took little notice of it but calves, pigs, chicken.", everything kept picking at it till late in the fail as long as the ground was open. Some of us thought that it might not stand our winter, but it has stood thuB far, and is now already sprout ing up nice, fresh and green. Thoe that know something about it, maintain that wheu not checked by rock or impermeable subsoil, it will send its roots down 20 or 25 feet and stand the greatest drought. In Colo rado your writer has 6een it growing and green where everything else was like a desert. I am informed that in California they cure it to feed the hogs iu winter, and thit it has grown to be 9 feet high. It is said to be good feed for all kinds of live stock, from the horse down to the little piggy and to the chicky, and your writer believes that it will be one of onr best things on stock farms and every farm in Nebraska ought to be a stock farm. A. H. P. S. The seed of Teosinte (Reana Luxurians) is very costly, 40 cts. an ounce, but the writer has procured some, will plant it and report in season. Letter JLIhi.
