FIGURES FROM GILCHRIST.
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.

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

senate committee. An amendment has
been offered providing for the holding
of a national celebration in this city

through the senate this week.

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,

at times. 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.

In a recent article in the Youth's Com
panion, on "how to cure a cold." the
writer advises a hot lemonade to be tak-
et at bed time. It is a dangerous treat
ment, especially during the severe cold
weather of the winter months, as it opens
the pores of the skin and leaves the sys
tem in such a condition that another and
much more severe cold is almost certain
to be contracted. Many years constant
use and the experience of thousands of
persons of all ages, has fully demonstrat
