The plcns.tnt winter is very fnvon
bio to orchards and small fruits. 1
is in this respect much like that t
77-8 , tollowing which wiwi the n
mnrknblo fruit crop of 1878 , who
thousands of buaholfl of fruit wci
raised in Nebraska , and nucli n fin
poach crop in the middle countries r
IB usual after mild winters. Tli
spring was very favorable to plant
ing. Orchards and vineyards startc
that year did remarkably well. Th
leisure days of winter should Ivo in
proved by planning for the busy day
of spring and summer. The hii ;
price of corn emphasizes the imporl
anco of hnvint ; Lir o pastures forliogi
These who planted hodijoa years ag
find at the ago of iivo'to six yean
osagc hedge can readily bo inado b
plashing , to turn pigs as well n
cattle , and that by non-ing rye an
clover , and planting artichokes i
suitable lots , one-half the corn ustinll
fed can bo saved. The oxponno an
difficulty of growing oaago ludgo hf
boon greatly over-estimated. Acre
of forest trees should bo planted cue
year by every farmer for pratectin
and fuel. Five acres judicious !
planted and eared for will , in to
years , supply all the fuel needei
Unless plans are laid and these in
provemonts determined upon , fartnoi
nro apt , in the hurry of spring , t
overlook such work until too Into f < ;
the bust results. Early planting i
always moro successful than lato.
The Cure of Horses.
Uunlap ( Ift ) t ci'Otter.
Horses should bo provided wit
warm stainbliiiR. No other farm ar
imal is so sens.ttvo to cold. The con
of the hog is no warmer than th
horse's , but it has a greater comparn
tivo amount of fat and iti organ
nro moro closely aggregated ; whil
the kino are provided with a muc
thicker hide and heavier coat Urn
the horacs. Much of the blindness c
horses is duo to exposure to exccpsiv
cold. In the eastern states much be
tcr stabling is provided than in tli
west , and in this connection it is a si :
nilicant fact that the proportion <
blind horses is considerably less in tli
east than in the west.

J. N. Reynolds , who has been ea :
in the states of Illinois and Indian ;
returned last Saturday availing. Whil

load of Pine brood marcs , and ono fu
blood stallion , of Normnn stock. Th
brood mares , Mr. K. informs us , or
all line grade. Ho proposes to ae
them to Nanco county , and desires t
get some good , careful horseman t
take a half interest with him in th
stallion , with a view to improvin
Nanco county horses. This is indooi
enterprise in the right direction , an
Mr. Reynolds should bo justly com
mended for the active interest h
takes in this direction. On last Tuei
day , Mr. Reynolds purchased 1,50
acres of Nance county land , south

An Iowa' farmer put up thirty , oni
year-old hogs for fattening , and fc
the first twenty days fed them o
shelled corn , of which they at
eighty-three bushels. During th ;
period < hey gained 82" pounds , < ;
upwards of ten pounds to the buslu

for fourteen daj's on dry corn mea
during which time they consume
forty-seven buaholw and gained < i3

The same hogs next fed 14 days o
corn meal and water mixed , consume
00 ? , bushels of corn , and gained 7- !
pounds , or 131 pounds of pork to th

1'anncu City Kritcrpi | * v ,
In conversation with County Con
missioner Scott , a few days ago , w
gathered some very interesting facl
as to stock fpcding and particularly rte
to feeding oil cako. Mr. S. is prob ;
bly the heaviest feeder of stock of a
kinds , in the county. He in no
feeding for the market 400 sheep-
wethors - a carload of cattle and aboi
SJiO head of hogs. In addition t
these , which are being fattened , li
has a number of other sheen and ca
tlo and 55 head of horses , Mr. Scol
was the first feeder of oil cake , to an
extent , in the county. Ho bought
car load early in the winter and has
about all used. Ho is pleased with !
and is of the opinion thut his stoc
never did hotter , or wore fattonu
moro cheaply than this winter II
method of feeding is to mukoono-thii
the feed oil cako. To hm fattonin
cattle ho feeds two quarts to a food (
about five or six pounds a day , an
they fatten with remarkable rupidit ;
His horses got six oars of corn at
feed and about a pound of oil caki
and are in line condition. Ho finds i
a splendid nppoti/.er , and it alto otlie
neil pleased with it. Ho feeds -tV (
pounds a day to his largo lot of stock

That shoqt-nxising in Nebraska i
highly profitable 1ms been proven
often that a repetition of the state
ment soenn nlmcst ridiculous. Nov
ortholos * it in n thought that shonli
bo impressed moro forcibly upon th
minds of the farmora in this state
and anything that will turn the !
thoughts to an investigation of th
subject is a blesiing to them. Ever ;
producer should have a few bond t >
sheep on his farm , for they : vro o
invaluable assislnnco in dostroyiiij
obnoxious weeds , and turning yoo
land into good tillable soil , bcsidci
the yearly revenue to ho doiivod fron
them , whioh in proportion to othc
investments , is very large. Tin
ready demand for wool keeps tin
price at such a figure as to mulio tin
clippings alone pay a handsome return
turn upon the money invested , am
when wo add to this the incroaio ii
the flock and the increasing vnluo o
the sheep each year , the figures presented
sonted show so largo a profit that it i :
a matter of surprino that the farmer
do not invest a spare dollar in theii
purchase. It is true , sheep-raisin )
M sometimes unprofitable. They bo
c'imo discnod and die at a rapid rate
Hut in nearly every instance sucl
losses are traceable to the grosses
carelessness , and shameful ignoranci
of the wants of thu Hock , NVi I
proper attention given them , there i :
little danger of the sheep becominj
diseased , and in such cases they return
turn to the owner a big per cent. 01
the investment.

Cultivating Tobncco.
I'lcmont lluruhl.
The amount of tobacco used in thi
county every-year for sheep dip make
it advisable for some one acquitinte <
with tobacco culture to undertake to
lucco raising to supply this demand
Tobacco has been successfully raiscc
hern almost every year since 1873
and wo are convinced that iu , wouli
pay to raise it in larger quantities.
Nebraska Fruit.
The Alma Herald has been showi
samples of gr.ipes , cherries , raspber
ries , gooseberries and other frui
grown during the past season by Hat
Ian county farmuis , which demon
stratcs that the climate and soil of th
section is admirably adapted to frui
growing.
The first shown wore oxcollcn
ppecimons of gooseberries , chorrie
and raspberries grown by P. W. Fun
nessey , of Alb'any precinct. Mr. Fen
nesscy had nn abundance of smal
fruit grown on trees and buthe
plnntcd in the spring of 1880 , no
quite two years ago.
Louis Cramer , near Orleans , had :
fine largo orchard of growing trees
and 1,600 grape vines some of tin
latter bearing a few bunches of full
flavored fruit , although it was then
first season. Mr. C. has 200 more
trees 'heeled in" to plant in tin
spring.
Mr. J. W. Carrothers , also near Or
leans , has a finu orchard growing nice
ly and surrounded by 'a fine osagi
hedge fence.
B. F. Thrasher , of Spring Creel
precinct , planted a largo number o. .
apple trees last season , and all bul
two are growing line ; alsoCapt. Baker
of the same precinct , has a line lot o
fruit trees growing.
Theodore Schrack , of Lowisbur ;
precinct , is growing u iico lot of frui1
trees and shrubs.
Many other farmers nre successfully
growing fruit trc < > s in the county
which will como into bearing nex
season.
Oonoral Notes.
Some of the Kaunas fanners raisi
sunflowers for fuel. When ripe am
thoroughly dry these woods make ex
collpnt fuel , and in localities whuri
prairie land is plentiful and limbo :
scarce it pays to raise sunflowers.
Bare pastures and poor cattle are i
euro consequence of overstocking land
The grass should gain on the animal
during the growing Reason. Cattle
that are obliged to eat night and du ;
to Hatisfy their appetites cannot ma
tnro properly. Give both the gras
and the cows n chances and do no
crowd your pastures.Dunlap ( la.

The United States court for th
western district of Michigan have decided
cidod that the patent on drive well
is a fraud and no moro royalty can bi

There is no reason why a Hullo

for that matter , should pay froigh
