That ono thousand live dollar fam ily tickets , or an equivalent of sii.gh entry tickets , bo subscribed or sold lor said August mooting in order to insure .ho full payment of all oxpcnsos.iucurrcc 'or and premiums to bo paid at such mooting. 2. That if sufficient money can bo c * jed , say five thousand dollars for ro juildiug the exposition building , the asso ciation will rebuild the same either upon ta grounds or in the business part of the city. The location of said building , if milt in the city , to bo determined by the subscribers to the fund , ono vote for each twenty-five dollars subscribed. 3.

SOIONS OF THE SCHOOLS , They Close Their 13xolmtigo of AVIa- doiu and Depart for Home. The mooting of the educational osso iation of Southwestern Iowa closed yes- orday. The sessions have not been so argoly attended as they ought to have > cun , but still the attendance has corn ered favorably with tbat of previous pcars. Many teachers at this time of oar are wearied , and the weather is warm , so that inducements to remain at lomo seem stronger than these to attend uch meetings. There were many interesting addresses nd valuable papers given , and the dis- ussions drew forth many hints which an bo well used in the school room. The following have been chosen oflicors or the ensuing year : James McNaugh- * > n ; Council BlufTa , president ; 0. B. iayt , Afton , vice president ; L. B. ivory , Onawa , secretary ; Mrs. L. E. granger , Shenandoah , treasurer ; Geo. I. Houphton , Tabor , W. 0. Davis , Areca , nd W. M. M.ooro , Glenwood , executive ommittoe. The address by President Brooks , of 'abpr College , was among the host of the ession , and very valuable as a compila- lon of many interesting facts concerning io history of education in southwestern owa. Yesterday's closing session consisted of paper by Mrs. J. M. Ware , of this city , n the "Diacritical Working in the Son- * mco and "Word Methods in Primary In- ; raction. " The paper called forth an ntorostiug discussion. President E. L. Parks , of Simpson ollego , Indianola , gave an interesting ddress , pointing out some of the induce ments ofl'ored to men of ability to engage lormanontly in the profession of tcach- ng. ng.Tho next place of meeting was not ocided upon , but will probably bo Afton. rilio Till ley H Letter. ] ro the Editor of The Bco : I BOO that the genial Col.

" AndorHonvlllo HovmltccJ. orrcflpondonco Iowa State Register. t Twenty years have coma and gene nco the enactment of the great tragedy t Andorsonvillo that will forever aaso- ate this obscure little town with bor ers indescribable. The driving rains of ; wenty winters have beaten upon the . andy elopes of the old enclosure where icro was cooped up within its walla more of human misery than was over loforo found on an equal area of earth's ) urfaco. I have traced out the throe ; ockado walls by the continuous ridges f decaying palisades that marked the nes they occupied. On the west aide lany of the palisades have been cut own and epllt into rails , while most of > 10 others have rotted oft' and Ho in do- tying masses on the ground. Ilere and lore a firo-blackened Eontinel still jinds in the place it waa planted in 301. On the east aldo the main line I palisades remains in n fair Btato of iruaervatioti , showing the height and Tongth of this formidable wooden wall , 'ho old ditch that surrounded the [ tockado is still plainly visible n the south , went and east des although in places'it is nearly filled y wanhing and caving in. On the north t nd south sides the timbers of the stock- [ do huvo been removed in clearing up 10 ground for colt"ii planting. Two ogroes with a mule cash wcro marking ut the ground for the rows of cotton on 10 south aide of the crook. On the . cirth side many of the old wells remain n a good etato of preservation. I count- d over 20 of them ranging in depth rom 10 to 30 foot. Youni ; pine , oaku ud blackberry buahud huvo cu > m up Ihicldy all over this eido. The mounds and depressions where coves were dug by the perishing prisoners nro plainly to bo soon all over this sandy eldo hill , The massive old gates at the west ontranc hftvo fallen down , and the owner of th land is working the Urabors of whlc1 they were constructed into catioa to b sold as relics of the old stockade. Outaido of these gates on the roiul to wards Andorsonvillo nro the ruins Wirtz'a old bakery , where the unboltei corn meal and fat bacon were f cooked foi the prisoners. Leading from Uio store house at the railroad station to the stockade ado is the old corduroy road along whlcl the teams transported the meal and bncoi to the bakery. The ground waa BI swampy Hint logs had to bo cut and hii eido for n quarter of a inilo to make a rom that would bear up n team and wagon , li looking for relics i found n scantling , tw by four , sticking in an old well , that was once a part of the "dead lino. " My guide was Dr. Harrison , who waa n surgeon in the confederate service stationed here during these deadly months , to aid it : treating the federal prisoners in that hos pital lined , where so many thousand perished. Ho pointed out the places o intorcstand gave mo many Hems relating to the prison-keeper , Wirtz. On the west side of tno atockado nca the north gate is the noted "providential spring , " that broke outono August morn ing whan the water in the crook lud become BO filthy as to bo no lonaoi endurable. The 'story aa told is Urn oiio day there came n torrifio _ storm o ; thunder , lightning , wind and rain , which suddenly raised tno water in the crook BO high as to swoop down the walls of the atockado on the west aide , where the crook enters the i jlosuro. Tha when the flood subsided ii was discovered that a soring of clear , pure water had gushed out of the hill-sido near the "dead line , " which flowed from that time forward in such abundance as to supply the entire army of moro than 30,000 inmates with pure wator. Many of the famishing soldiers looked , upon this as a direct Interposition of the Almighty to save them from the liorora of the polluted crook. That no spring was visible up to this time all the inmates of the atockado agrco in declaring , That such a spring did burst from the sand of the hillside ia as clearly _ estab lished by thousands of grateful wituo&soa , I , too , saw its clear crystal waters boil up from the sand in a stream largo enough to supply the city of Doa Moines with drinking water ; but not being dis posed to acccgt the "special providence" theory without a thorough investigation , I sought out the oldest resident of the place , M. P. Subor , the station agent , who has lived hero 30 years , and asked him to tell mo what ho know of the origin of this spring. Ho informed mo that ho had known the spring for morp than 30 years. That when this region was an unbroken forest , this spring was a favor ite resort fcr deer. That when the stockade - ado was erected in February , 1804 , the workmen in excavating the trench fdlod up the bpritig so that the water oozed through the sand to the crook below without rising to the surface. The flood that swept the atockado walla nway dur ing that terrible August storm washed the earth f.tom over tlio spring , and it again burst out clear and strong as of old. The famishing prisoners , knowing nothing of its existence heretofore , naturally regard ed it aa an especial gift for their benefit. Prohibition In Iowa. St. Louis Glebe Democrat. The prohibitionists have everything their own way in Iowa , and evidently understand dorstand that fact and are making the boat possible use of their knowledge. The law is BO exceedingly strict and has boon drawn up with so determined at hand , that it may bo said to roach every case of liquor-dealing that is at all likely to uriso in the state. As the statutes orn interpreted it is alleged that not only is it unlawful to sell and buy , but oven to have any business dealings in which the unclean thing may bo in the remotest do- iroo concerned. ' 'Touch not , taste not , handle not , " is the motto , and the pro mpts it convoys are "carried out to their fullest extent. The druggists may not jell it , the railroads may not carry it , to keep it in the house ia an unlawful act , to glvo it to a friend is qrimnal , and so tightly have the lines boon drawn that it is said a traveler passing through may jiavo his baitgago overhauled and bo pun ished for being found the possessor of jvon so much aa an old-fashioned pocket- pistol. I The Town people are evidently of the jpinlon that whatever is worth doing at ill is worth doing well , and so , since lioy have entered on the prohibition ex periment , they are resolved to nco that rohibition does prohibit , in npito of the /cry earnest declaration of not a few of ts opponents that it docs not. The progr ess of the experiment will bo watched vith no little interest , for on the succoau f the movement in IOWA may bo said to rest tha f uturo of prohibition in the west. L'lio friends of the causa seem to know .bis fact as well as anybody , and hnnco ho tremendous efforts that are being put 'orth. If it fail , prohibition will receive backset from which it will bo alow to ocover ; if it succeed , not many years will ilapso ore other states will bo found in ho wako of Iowa and Kansas , and prohi- jition will have a boom that may carry it nuch further than its advocates at pro- lent imagine. It may well bo imagined , therefore , bat the party of prohibition in Iowa ooks upon its work with extreme appro- jation. It eot itself to do a certain task , has prevailed in obtaining a popular tanction of its object , It has passed the loccssary statutes to carry on the work 10 auspiciously begun , and , no doubt , ooka upon ita work and pronounces it ood. But there are certain indications .hat , instead of being done , the actual vorkof prohibition in Iowa has only juat jogun. Statutes do not usually execute homsolvos , and such statutes as have t eon passed in Iowa are never executed vithout the most earnest , faithful efforts in the part of all interested to carry them tut. It is difllcult enough to execute uws when the vast majority of tha cltl- ions are on the side of the law-makers , ut when the effort ia made to place near * one-half _ the citizens of a great com- uonwoalth in the position of law-broakpra limply becnuso they tic not agree with 0 ho majority , the difficulty of the task jccomea increased tenfold. The opponents of the prohibition novoment , therefore , are believed to ook upon the attempt to enforce the owa laws with no ess imtisfaction than ho prohibitionists , The people of thin iountry have never taken kindly to ea Kiinago'of uny kind or in any form , and is safe to Bay that the present laws of owa can not bo enforced without a good leal of private information given by iitizcn ngaiimt citizen , by neighbor igainat neighbor. When laws of this and and needing such co-operation na .his are passed by any community , the encloncy to bo restive under their work- ngs will bo too ntrong to bo concealed , aid when the local ollicers are elective , lathcynrnin moat Mated , tlio privata ' uuUa Uiul null uituiiily Hjuitig un nlil iu't productive of more disorder mid ba < fooling than the people of lowadroan of or will care to toll About. Mho True I'roblem of Feeding. South And West. A great number of experiments in feed Ing have been conducted of late , am much Retention has boon directed to Un subject. By those experiments and thi interest qood linn been done ; but it ap pears to mo that in a majority of In atanqoi the chief labor haa boon cxpondct on outeiilo problems , while tlio into problem hns not boon touched , except ii rare instances. Fat-stock shows have induced farmora and breeders to labor for the production of mountains of boo and tallow. Rivalry among the admirer of different breeds of swine haa causec them to crowd their animnls to enormous weights , and to put upon the market mil mated lard barrels. Wo have had butler to U and milk testa , and under the influence of stimulating food yields of butter and milk have boon repeatedly obtained which n few years ago would have boon regarded na fabulous. Bui the majority of these testa have booi elmply curiosities and have had no prac tical value to the average farmer. Many of tlio enormously ovorfattod nnlmals have boon made BO nt a cost that far ex ceeded their actual value , and in many , probably in moat , of the butter tests the butter would have had to sold at $1 a pound to pay for the food the cow con sumed while producing it. The average farmer carries on his business for the sixko of supporting his family. Money may bo a low and sordid object , but it is MI object most of us are compelled to ro. gard. Possibilities nf production may bo interesting , but they don't pay store bills , and tlio problem , therefore , thut is the most important in all questions of hooding is : How shall wo produce meat , milk or butter at the smallest coat per pound ) If n scrawny cow with neither points nor pedlgroo will make moro gallons lens of milk out of a ton of hay than n cqw which takes all the premiums at tlio show , the scrawny cow is the ono the farmer who follows farming for a living wants , oven though the pedigreed cow might give twice aa much milk in n BOS- SOU. If a farmer , by feeding straw and clover and whole corn , can make a steer ready for the market at loss cost per pound than by feeding corn meal and lin seed cade , then atraw , clover and whole corn ta the food that farmer wants to use , oven though his neighbor , who uses the more expensive food , turns off moro showy stock. Of course , the comparative value in the market of the animals differ ently fed would have to bo considered. It ia not my purpose in this article to at tempt to aolvo this problem , but simply to draw attention to it , that farmers and experimenters may moro generally enter into its solution ; and I think farmers will generally agree with mo that the ques tion in feeding ia not how to produce the best show stock or the most wonderful records , but how to accuro the largest profit on the food consumed.
