There has often boon expressed the do-
si ro that Council Bluffs should have a
first-class military company of some sort
as a moans of advertisement for the city
at largo in time of peace , and a protec

parade and a joy forever to the young
men who join in the drill and discipline.
Major Richmond is now at the head of
such a movement , and aa ho is a thor
oughly experienced military man , an
organization as is proposed under such a
leadership ought to bo a success every
way. It is proposed to organize a cav
alry company , and a number of young

THE DAIRY INTER
The manufacture cf bogus butter has
reached such perfection and enormous
proportions , that the legislature of Now
York has passed another stringent law to
suppress the business. Two years n o a
law was put upon the statute books sub
jecting manufacturers and sellers to fine
and imprisonment for failure to properly
mark every package of butter , whether
the genuine or bogus article. Tito do-
nand for the bogus article in the largo
iitics of the state , was BUlliciout to ill-
uco manufactureis to risk the violation
f the law , and the bogus article
as branded as genuine. Very few
orsons could tell the ditl'oronco by tast-
ig , and as the law did not authorize the
iinploymont of inspectors and chemists ,
10 buttorino vendors had a clear iiold ,
Vnd they lost no opportunity to reali/.e
n this fatal defect in the law , A g'ontlo-
nan from Olonn , N. Y. , recently stated
o the writer that at the county fair hold
lioro last fall the best of bogus and gonu-
110 butter wore placed side by side , and
liat the judges , unaware of its presence ,
ftor a thorough inspection awarded the
romium to the bogus article.
The law recently enacted by the Now
fork legislature provides a fine and iin-
risonmont as a penalty tor manfacturing
ir selling bogus butter in the state , and
? 300,000 has been appropriated to carry
lie law into effect. A thorough system
if inspection will bo inaugurated , and it
is behoved the product of the grease vats
will bo driven out of the state in less
han n year. Thia movement is signifi-
: ant and necessary. The dairy interests
f the atato lost last year § 10,000,000.
ilany dairies wore forced to close , being
unable to compote with the bogus stuff ,
which generally sold in the market for
"rom 10 to 15 cents loss. It is hoped
.his law will bo put in force in all states ,
, nd may eventually lead to inspection of
.11 . manufactured food products and pro-
mention of adulteration.
It is pleasing , in this connection , to
note the success of the creamery busi
ness in Nebraska. Scarcely n week
passes without the organization of one or
moro in some part of the state. When
properly managed they have invariably
proved succedsful. Of those already
established on a substantial basis , that
at Fremont is probably at the head of
the list. Speaking to a reporter of The
Tribune recently , Mr. J. Dixon Avery ,
the manager , gave the following interest
'ng figures :
"Wo make as much aa 1,200 pounds
ot butter some daya and our average ia
over 700 pounds. Thia amount is twice
as large as ono year ago and the amount
made then was moro than twice ns much
aa the year immediately propcding. So
you sco wo have been doubling our'buoi-
ness every twelve months since wo
started , "
"Do you expect to do twice as much
this summer as last ? "
"That's pretty hard to toll. After the
business gets so largo it is harder to keep
up that proportion of increase. Ilovr
over , I think the spring and summer re
ceipta for the coming season will bo 100
per cent larger than last year. Wo ex
pect to got the products of from 7,000 to
8,000 cows. To those -who have doubted
our ability to make a success of the enterprise
terpriso this poems like a largo number
but I think wo will reach it. "
"No ono but a person who haa gen
through it knows what amount of labo :
has boon required to get it up to thii
magnitude. In the beginning the work
was extremely hard. Now the farmers
take to it very kindly and from aourcef
where we expected the hmst support it
some cases WH have the most. "
"Tho success of this institution has
had much influence on the dairy interest
throughout Nebraska. It is the largcs1
ono of the kind in the west and wai
among the first established in Nebraska
consequently a grunt many have watclie
it and noted the results. To n cortai
extent whatever has retarded or enhanced
hanced the growth of it. linn had its of
feet on other similar institutions. Oui
products have always brought the highos
prices of any made in Nebraska , will
ono exception. Altogether the prospect
ore flattering. "

Good JJjc , Di-hc-rt nntl
"Westward the star of empire takes
its way" was never bettor exemplified
than by the progress and development
of Nebraska's agricultural resources.
Le s than fifty years ago the wisracrus
informed us that west of the Missouri
river no corn or wheat would ever grow ,
j In the course of a few years the line
was removed to Lincoln but farther
than that it was folly to go. It was too
far from the river , and the fall of water
wasiiisuflicient to support moro than a
scanty eupply of buffalo grass. But the
foolish emigrant , with his usual hardi
hood , pushed on into the desert , pitoho.1
his tent and raised his crops so bounti
ful that the wise men consented to innvo
the line a little further west , but they
had hardly got it located when they were
forced to make Hod Willow county the
linal stopping place. But hero it must
rest only cattle could thrive beyond that
point , for the arid desert there supported
"only buffalo gross. "
At boat the desert line can bo kept
within the borders of Nebraska only a
few years longer. It is n scientific ) fact
the rainfall is advancing westward at a
rapid rate , and Bufllciont moisture is all
that is required to make the "buffalo
urass regions" as productive ns any other.
Twelve year * ago this county was cover
ed with an unbroken sea of buffalo grass.
Twelve years moro will work as uroat n

Cutting 1'otutocH for Sccil ,
Some people object to cutting pota
toes into small pieces for seed , and ynt
it would bo hard to persuade them to
put ten or twelve grains of corn in
oich hill , although the effect is about the
same. When a potato is planted whole ,
most , or many of the eyes , will prow
not all , but too many to do well.
The crop of potatoes under favorable
circumstances may measure out toler
ably well , but when the farmer comes to
market them ho finds ho has too many
small ones peed only to bo fed to stock ,
and often allowed to go to waste. The
experience of our bust farmers and ox-
pornnontors , among whom are Dr. Slur-
tovant , of the Utica , Nwv York , experi
mental station , and Prof. Sanborn , of
the Missouri agricultural college farm ,
haa shown that potatooas cut to ono eye
to the piece and planted 12 to 15 inches
.part . in the drill with rows 40 to 41
iches apart give the greatest yield per
, cro. Another point important in socur-
ng a good stand and early growth ia
, ho cutting of the seed in time to dry
.hem . oil'or coat thorn over before plant-
ig. Thia rotainatho moisture in the picco
, nd directs it to the growth of the sprout
ustoad of rotting aa they sometimes do
planted immediately after being cut.
. 'ho ' cutting may bo done from four teen
on days before planting. A q uick , go d
my to dry them is by rolling in land
ilastor immediately after cutting. With a
; oed kind and quality of potatoes for seed
.hero . need bo very little trouble in got-
ing from two to throe hundred bushels
o the aero on an average piece of west-
irn sod land. Wo cover with aovon inch
urning plow and run the harrow over
ust as the stalk is ready to break
hrough. After that the process is sim
ile. In St. Louis county , where largo
[ Uantitios are grown for market , the
isual method is , at first plowing turn the
tarth from the row ; second , use a _ double-
ihovol ; and , third , turn the dirt up to
, ho row. [ St. Louis Agriculturist.
Fruit Oulturo in Nebraska.
Henry Fralun , an experienced fruit
; rower of Washington county , writes to
; ho Blair Pilot :
Love ) ground ia the best for orchards ,
jocauso it will hold moisture bettor than
oiling land ; but the surface has to liavo
ilovation enough for the necessary drain-
.go . of the surplus water. Fruit trees
need a great deal of moisture when they
bear fruit. Orchards located on hilly or
liigh ground are moro exposed to storms
and heavy rains will , moro or loss every
line , carry off a good deal of the best and
richest ground necessary for thii nourish
ment of the trees. The surface of ground
on hilly or rolling land should bo plowed
up in ridges high enough to hold back
the rain and snow water. If you should
: iavo very hilly land , select u side hill
'acing north and east , but never ono that
s facing west. Ground well cultivated
ia bettor than new ground. It should b
plowed In the fall beforoplanting , as deep
as possible , and left in ridgca if on a side
hill. After plowing mark the land oif ,
27 foot ono way and 34 feet cross ways
.his . is about the best distance for troei
to stand apart when they got to bearing.
After this make your holes throe-fourths
of a foot square , and sufficiently deep
leave the loose dirt on the south side of
the holes and draw a furrow so the snow
and rain water will follow its run into
the holea. Thia will give the ground
plenty of nourishing moisture ; very im
portant for the growth of young trees.
\vjuui : : AND OP WHOM TO HUY.
Buy only trees from responsible men
men who are known to bo honest and
trustworthy , or buy direct from uastun
orchard-men , well recommended , but mil
butter , if possible , buy of a homo or
chard nearest you , and select the bus
and healthiest trees , not ever throe years
old.

Fumeuso , Bailey'a Sweet , and for winter
use plant Wmesap , Bun Davis , Juiiut
and Jonathan. Tlieso sor's ' are doing
vury well on our soil and bear fruit soon.
The Northern Spy is a first-rato winter
apple , if not the bust ono of nil , but it
takes twenty years before they boar. It
ia better to plant only u few sorts than
to have so many of doubtful merit.
HOW TO PLANT TUKK.4 ,
Spring is the butt time for setting out
fruit trees - early spring. A good tree ,
that is , ono Buro to grow , must luivo
plenty of roots in proportion to the crown
or branches. Spread the roots well apart
when setting and put fine ground around
them ; use water if the ground ia dry and
see that the trees have a natural standing
in the ground , on level ground not deeper
than thuy had in the orcliaro , but on hilly
or rolling ground about two inches deep ,
er. Have every tree about 20 degrees
toward the south , to give thum a bracing
position against the dry south winds ;
leave the ground next to the trees leveler
or a little the lowest to give thorn all
possible rain-water falling near them.
Straw'mulching ia very good , but it hin
ders greatly the cultivating the ground
through the summer.
HOW TO TUKAT TKKKH AKTEHWAHD.
The firnt season plant potatoes , beans ,
pumpkins , etc. , on ground between the
trees and kuop all woods out. The uec
end season cultivate the ground well till
July and then aow buckwheat. Thia
will keep the weeds out and ripen thu
trees against early front. When the trees
begin to bloasom the fourth or fifth year
after planting put in clover , and in the
end any kind of tame grans.
I'ltOTECTlON.
Orchards ought to have protection
oagainst utorme ; but cottouwood treoe
should never bo planted near them ,
Windbreaks are needed , north , south
and west ,
It is useless to plant an orchard if live
stock is not kept out of it by putting up
n peed tight fence. The trimming of
trees should bo done while thuy are
young and the middle branches should betaken
taken away sn the tree * will got a broad
crown with lots of room between the
branches for every apple wants sunshine
to do well.
dcnrrnl Notes.
Ilomombor the early pullets make the
hona 1 that lay the fall nnd early winter
cgns. To got these sol your hens early ,
then t food and water often and regularly
the t little chicks when they put in an ap-
povranco. Bo sure , too , to keep their
bodies warm and their fluffy down dry.
In Nebraska and Dakota , sod is found
to bo an excellent substitute for wood in
building poultry houses , and much ir.oro
economical in these troolcas lands. Like
wooded houses , they may bo kept clean
and comfortable , or quite the reverse ,

it that the good man got * the garden
spot prepared for planting peon , lettuce ,
radish and onion aooda and sola , as soon
an the ground is in good working condi
tion. The earlier the bettor. The
hardier vegetables will stand "a right
smart frost after they got a little start
and grow right along without injury.
Should they got killed , however , it is no
great trouble to replant , and thus secure
an average early crop. Gardening is ono
of the tilings which should not bo put
off for a moro convenient season.
Tin' Country Gentleman advises house
holders who are yuzzlud to know how to
get rid of all sorts of rubbish , such as
broken glass , rusted stove pipe , brick
bats , broken crockery , etc. , to bury them.
On a farm they may bo made to servo n
useful purpoao aa a part of the filling of
ditches , occupying a foot of spaca next
above thu tile at the bottom. Thia will
facilitate the discharge of water , and at
the sixmo time dispose of the unsightly
refuse. The filling may bo done in sec
tions , year by year , so aa to require no
accumulation of the rubbish.
After all it acorns that the gifted
veterinary surgeons who pronounced the
cattle disorder in Kansas foot-and-mouth
disease , were wholly wrong in their
diagnosis. It now turns out that the
complaint was caused by n superabund
ance of a poisonous weed in thu fond ot
the affected herds. Th6 sudden surgeons
ought to crawl off into some quiet place
and hide until their blunder is forgotten.
Casper Sockmiller , of Brown county ,
who did most of the threshing for farmera
there , last season , says the average yield
of wheat was from " 7 to 30 bushels per
acre , oats GO to 75 bushels , barley 4D to
55 bushels , flax 10 to 12 bushels , buck
wheat 15 to 20 bushels , millet 40 bushels ,
rye 30 bushels. The grain WAS all sound
and plump and of the beat quality. Un
til last season there was but little prairie
broken in this section and of course the
total amount of grain does not show
heavy but the average shows what the
country can do for small grain. Corn
docs well , but not much beside sod corn
has yet been raised. A number of farm-
era raised aa much as forty to fifty bush
els of good sound corn to the acre.

John Banner and Miss Mary Kramer
were married in the sheriffs oflico at
Sioux City a few days ago by Mayor
Swarts. About a month ago there was a
bad row at Michael's saloon , in which
Banner , the party of the first part , used
n hnifo , and Michael and four friends ,
party of the second part , used a billiard
cue , fists nitd boots. The party of the
first part got b.ully pounded , and several
of the party of the second part got cut.
This row waa about Mary Kramer , who
had loved the Banner not wisely but to a
considerable extent. The row came U { :
in various phases in thu justices courts ,
and finally came to the grand jury room.
That body decided that the law would
bo satisfied if John Banner would marry
Mary Kramer. So ho married her.

My specialty is diseases of women an
children. I like AMXJOOK'H Pouou
PLABTEUH because they are ao quick an
I'flieient , and never irritate or mark th
tuiidorest akin. I have found them 11103
useful in my practice , and they are cei
tainly the best planters now mado. T
illustrate : My son of ten years of ag
took a bad Cold and coughed incessantly
no mtdicino would relieve him ; afto
some twelve hours I applied an ALLCOOK' '
Pouous PI < ABTEII to his throat and uppo
oh eat. The cough ceaaod entirely in
hour , and the next day the boy was well.
I told the case to a gentleman who suf
fered in the same style ; ho , too , waa
cured in twenty-four hours of his cough
by ALLCOOK'H Pouous PLATJSIUS. Another
patient suffered from pain in the small of
the back ALLUOOK'H Pouous PLAHTKK
was applied at night , and next morning
the pain had ceased. Again , a young
lady BUfFering from Neuralgiq Pains
around the heart , by rny advice used
ALLCOCK'H Pououd P/AsrKiiB , and was
ont.roly cured in thrto days. Finally , a
lady cumo to mo with Cold Feet , which
constantly recurred night and day this
sometimes ia a symptom of Uterine Con-
Kottion I appliud an AU.COCK'B Pouous
PiABTKU to the solo of each foot , uud
her feu * pot and continued warm. She
were the Plasters over a wook.
Thus I have recently tried ALLCOGK'H
Pouous PLAHTKUS , and take great plena
uru in bearing witness to their remark
able curative power ,
