A Secretary Shews What the Railroad Get ef the'Fament Cora. Secretary Gilchrist of the state board of transportation has prepared the fol lowing to illustrate the manner in which through rates on corn are made up: There seems at thistime to be a great deal of misunderstanding as to the status of freight rates on corn from Nebraska to Chicago, and how they are made up, and also what -rates- are charged from srauuns in ims state, ana now they com pare with through rates. The rate from the Missouri river to Chicago on corn. is 20 cents per hundred pounds and the rate for the most extreme western points in Nebraska to Chicago is only five cents higher. There are those who under stand that our through rate on corn to Chicago is made up by adding the local rate from the -point of shipment in Ne braska to the Missouri river, the local rate to the. Mississippi river and the rate from the Mississippi river to Chi cago. This is a mistake. I will take as an illustration a point in Nebraska 100 miles is .11 cents -per hundred pounds; across the state of Iowa, .124 cents per hundred pounds; from the Mississippi river to Chicago, .0931 cents per hundred pounds; the sum of the three locals is ."3271 cents per hundred pounds. While the rate now charged from a point -100 miles west of the Missonri river is 21 5-10 cents per hundred pounds being .1121 cents per hundred pounds less than the sums of the locals in- the three states named. From the forego ing it is made plain that the through rate is only 65.7 per cent of the sum of the locals. The sum of the locals across Iowa and Illinois is .2171 cents per hundred pounds. Through rates from points west of the Missouri river to Chicago, .2150 cents per hundred pounds making through rates to Chicago, .21 cents per hundred pounds less that the two locals from the Missouri river to Chicago. So if the local rate of corn in Nebraska should be entirely wiped out from a point 100 miles west from the Missouri river, the through rate on corn to Chica go would still be the same. Nebraska Clever. Some weeks ago, meeting our friend H. H. Hewitt of Shelby, and knowing that in his neighborhood there were quite a number of fine clover pastures, we asked him for some information in regard to them. We have received the following: Ed. Journal: Being asked how to sow clover, I will say that in 1885 I sowed ten acres to clover for hogs. I mixed oats and barley two bushels, ten pounds clover per acre; after harrowing once, sow clover and harrow again. I think it wants to be covered at least one half inch deep so as to be in moist earth as it takes some time to moisten the seed; if sown on top of the ground after the grain is sown, it may do well until dry weather sets in, then it dies for want of moisture. If sown with oats, it does well if a wet season; if dry when crop is taken off it leaves the tender plant exposed to the hot sun; the grain should be cut as high as possible to shade the clover; flax and rye have both proven good to seed clover with; flax has not much foliage; when crop is taken off, there is no extreme change. Bye can be cut high enough to leave some protection; in often grows one foot high the firajb season sown and is fit for fall pasture. ' My neighbor, Mr. Palmer, two years ago sowed ten acres; it being fall plow ing, ne cuinvaiea ana narrowea once, and sowed clover and harrowed again; the spring plowing was mixed with tim othy and took well to clover and stalk ground sown a few days later took most ly to timothy, the seed all being mixed alike on the last two pieces. Last year he cut a crop of hay from his clover, the last of June or the first of July; in the tall he cut a crop for seed and threshed two bushels of prime clover seed per acre,-for which he is getting $4 a bushel, making him $8 for second crop. My neighbor, Mr. Krunbauck, five years ago sowed ten acres to clover; the next season he cut the first crop for hay; in the fall he cut the second crop and then threshed five bushels to the acre, and sold the seed for $5 a bushel, mak ing him $25 an acre for second eron. being threshed with a threshing machine. Capt J. S. Smith of Shelby tells me that from five acres of clover he cut and sold $19 worth of hay and. put sixteen loads in his barn last spring; he was offered $25 for the use of the five acres. I think it should be sown as earlv as possible and well covered; the seed must have plenty of moisture. I know of eleven other narties in the vidnitv wbra experience I have not ascertained.

The result was a sort of a compromise. There is a great deal of hard feeling among the democrats about this thing, and it is likely to increase. Gen. Baum, commissioner of pensions, has at the request of the house commit tee on invalid's pensions, prepared a statement of the probable cost of a ser vice -pension bill. His estimate is a fraction less than $40,000,000 a year, and in commenting on the bill he said: uEv ery provision of your bill commends itself to my judgment as wise and just, and it seems to me that it will not im pose a burden upon the country of which the people will complain.'' The bill for the admission of Wyoming passed the house in spite of the de termined opposition of the democrats. Speaker Beed has raised another howl among the sinners by denying the privi leges of the floor to ex-members of con gress engaged in lobbying. ..The World's Fair bill having passed the house is now in the hands of the senate committee. An amendment has been offered providing for the holding of a national celebration in this city October 14, 1892, as the fair in Chicago will not open until April, 1893. An at tempt is to be made to push the bill through the senate this week. The bill to appropriate $350,000 for the boring of experimental artesian wells in the dry belt -extending from Dakota to Texas has been favorably reported by a sub-committee of the house. EXPERIENCES OF A YOUNG TEACHER. Read Before the Platte Coaaty Teachers' A ftoeiatios March 1, 185M), by Mm Clara Weaver, Collates, Neb. "Uneasy lie the heads of those who role. The most so his whose kingdom is a school." These two lines of Charles Kingsley express volumes to the teacher, espe cially the beginner, for ever since she has entered the school-room as a teacher her nights have been for the most part spent in entertaining that vivacious but wearisome guest insomnia. To the careless outside of the teacher's realm, life in a school room seems one long, delightful picnic with the munifi cent sum of from twenty-five to forty-five dollars thrown in, as a sort of recom pense for time lost, not for actual labor performed. So the teacher gets very little sympathy from -those outside her own "noble profession." "Teaching is a sort of a soft snap," isn't it? says one who has never known the care of even a younger brother or sister. Such a remark makes the young teacher feel inclined to be angry with its author, but as teachers never possess any but the most amicable tempers the remark is passed by to be talked over with insomnia during the peaceful hours of the silent night. The new beginner. however, has not become so thoroughly hardened as to be able to stand all re marks. For instance, a mother who sends her two little ones, aged fonr and a half and six to school because they set her "perfectly crazy with their noise" says, "well, I do envy you teachers your easy positions." Oh, wouldn't the young teacher like to pull her hair out! But all she can do is to invite that mother to take one of those enviable positions, and see if she will not change her tune before a week's time has elapsed. The old, ex perienced teachers are never heard to say that teaching is easy. Only a few there are who ever find it so and they, it is hardly necessary to add, are not wor thy the name. The lack of experience is offset to some extent by a thorough normal training. But let the teacher's preparation be what it will, actual work in a school room is, after all, the only way to get experience. We will assume that the teacher has a good education in the common and high school branches. Here, then, we have our experienced teacher. She can give intelligently a full account of the growth of the alpha bet from the Egyptian hieroglyphs and Assyrian cuneiforms to the Phoenician, and from that down through the various forms to our own A, B, Cs, but just how to impress upon a child mind the fact that the symbols C, A and T make the word cat, she is at a loss to know. She has a comprehensive knowledge of the laws and customs of the nations from the time of our ancient Aryan forefathers to the present day, and can make laws for the government of her school which are as firm and immovable as those of the Medes and Persians, but as chief executor of those laws she may at first fail The rise and fall of empires has always been an interesting subject and she has a very fair knowledge of the rea sons for such happenings. She can see plainly how the falling of empires might have been averted, but when similar fluctuations occur in her own special empire she does not understand exactly how to direct affairs so there will be no disastrous ending. She knows perfectly well that a balance of power must be maintained in the school room as well as among nations, but when" a veritable Busman usurps this equality by claim ing two seats for himself that he may take a nap, or simply to create a dis turbance, she may settle the matter in a proper manner, but being inexperienced the terms of peace are apt to be unfa vorable to herself, unless she is happily gifted with a diplomatic mind. This young teacher knows all about the for mation and composition of the earth. Why, she has traced its growth from the earliest Archean age and has a profound understanding of the causes which have produced certain effects and of the effects which certain camses are sure to produce. The small boy's mind is a mystery. Of its workings she has only avagaeidea. The effects produced bv its workings are seen on every hand, rack, to the djaoosAftw of the teacher, OO Peces f 8t"ctly all I I wool Plaid and stripes especially adapted for 11 if outer garments only 371 cents a yard.

But the motive prompting the actions it is sometimes difficult to dis cover and even the inexperienced feels that the motive is what she must deal with, as that alone decides whether an act is commendable or worthy of censure only. Especially is this so, if the teach er is not able to bring herself down to the level of the child's mind. And it is difficult at first to find as much interest in Mother Goose as the child does when one has been an ardent reader of Shakes peare and probably a student of Brown ing. The teacher soon sets one lot of pupils down in her mental memoranda as good, and another lot as apt to get into mis chief or meanness. She has discovered the zone of fracture in her school room which has a well denned outline along the back row of seats. She gets accus tomed to looking for disturbances in that direction. That incorrigible Johnnie never becomes quiet and can be expect ed to give an exhibition of fiery action at almost any time. It is the eruptions which occur outside the defined zone that cause the teacher most anxiety. Why should this quiet student suddenly become sullen and stubborn? A few nights, may be weeks of restlessness for the teacher will follow such an occur rence and perhaps in that time a solu tion of the difficulty will be found. But the young teacher is getting very tired. Her first three months are not nearly completed but already she begins to sigh for that time "When the nights shall be filled with music. And the cares that infest the day Shall fold their tents like the Arabs And as silently steal away." As she becomes better acquainted with the work she begins to like it, and looks for a higher position. And really with all her inexperience she has become a fairly good teacher in a short time, be cause she is gifted with a bright, edu cated, active mind and a determination to succeed. And so time moves on and in her change from district to district it is no surprise to see her land in the city schools, the goal of the ambition .of many a weary teacher who finds 'solacef oxten in tho tnougnt tnat can sne attain this end here at last her tired feet shall find rest. But a different and a wider field opens up and she finds herself treading paths which she had thought familiar, but which prove to be as strange as those of a foreign country. The city urchin is just the same as his country cousin. But in addition to pleas ing the people by pleasing the pupils, she finds hersolf overshadowed by principal and superintendent, who have fish of their own to "fry," and with all this complication of cookery the broth is sometimes spoiled. Teaching is perhaps like every other business. Its work is never ended and its experiences always new. It "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty," we may say with equal truth that eternal perse verance in the face of all obstacles is the price of success in teaching, as well as in every other field of human enterprise. For The Jocbnal. The Hitches Gardes. With the coming of warm weather our diet should change radically if we would preserve a proper state, of health. The desire for vegetables and fruit at this season is not the.resnlt of a pampered taste, but the emphatic call of nature for a food conditioned to the needs of the season. The earlier this demand is met the better for ns. Hence the im portance of the kitchen garden to every houseliold. This is within the reach of all who have a patch of 'ground in the back lot. Let it be dug deep and fine, as soon as dry after the frost has left the ground, and when warm weather comes, sow carefully with radish, and lettuce, a few beets, and, if there is room left, plant rather deep, a few rows of peas of the early dwarf varieties, and also dwarf beans. Protect on the north and west with boards or a bank of earth. The lettuce will grow very soon and' if sown thickly can be used in smallquantities while very young, thinning the bed even ly, and leaving plants for larger growth and later use. The radish should .1m oti the small varieties, will come into use very early, and give a regular succession until July, and needs very little cultiva1 tion. The radish mustbe sown at in tervals to insure a constant supply. A bed prepared in the fall, and sown to the common lambs quarter and protect ed as before by banks of earth on the north and west, together with a few plants of the "Fgliah dandelion which may remain for years, will supply a 'ereens" almost as soon as the frost has left the ground. The asparagus bed and a few stalks of rhubarb should be in every back yard. They are among our earliest growths and snpply a delicate and wholesome food in unlimited quan tity, all through the spring and early summer, and need so little attention that a child can care for them. The aspara gus fills the place of the more delicate vegetables, while the rhubarb contains the juices and acids of the fruits. A very little care and expense in this way, will supply all, even the poorest, with the wholesome and nourishing change made so desirable by the rapid change of season. UkcuJajob.
