Thcro remains yet eight days of the
legislative session before the members
nnd the people enter into rest and the
lobbyists go licnoo to return no moro for
two years to conic. Despite the fact that
the session has been extended to sixty
days there are less than two dozen bills
at the present time that have become
laws , nnd tlto prospects are that the usual
hurry nnd skurry to push bills through
in the closing days will bo repeated
again the present session. Of the appro-
printlon bills many nro hanging on the
ragged cdgo of despair nnd great efforts
will bo made the coming week to rein
state in the affections of nn adverse ma
jority some of thcso bills that have here
tofore been pounded into the earth , meta
phorically speaking. This will bo true
of the Norfolk asylum bill and the live
stock commission bill , the latter of which
was sadly mutilated in the senate under
the direct efforts of Brown , of Clay. In
tills measure thcro is some diversity of
opinion , but the great majority scorn to
be B.itisficd with the work of the commis
sion nnd recognize the needs existing fern
n continuation of work in the
interest of the stock inter
ests of the state. With cattle
disease raging in manv of the eastern
'
states , the necessity for'n continuation of
strict quarantine measures is fully rccog-
'nizcd und the paving process in the sani
tary commission bill indulged in by the
senate Is not liable to meet with accept
ance when the bill with its senate amend
ments comes bcforo the house. It is ex
pected to-day that the bill authorising
ttio sale of the Saline lands adjoining the
city on the west to the Nebraska stock
yards company will ngnin be up in the
house , nnd the report of the special com
mittee appointed to investigate the pro
posed sale will bo watched with n great
deal of interest. In the sonnto work : will
bo resumed to-day , after a three days'
rest and recreation. Lieutenant Gov
ernor Shedd , who has been absent in the
cast with his wife , is at homo again and
presumably will grace the senate cham
fer with his presence. In this branch
' -work is apparently ahead of tbo house ,
but from present indications this body
'will ' hold night sessions as well as the
house the coming week , nnd the same
trush and hurry of bills will characterize
tits closing hours as in previous sessions.
But nt best the agony will soon be pass od
nnd goue.
IS AltMOUIt COMING t
Thc BEG has it to announce to the citi
zens of Lincoln and all directly interested
in its material advancement that Armour ,
the packing house king of Chicago , has
had a representative in this city the past
week , nnd as a result of this visit this
roprosontatlve of Armour has purchased
in the immediate vicinity of the West
Lincoln industries an eighty-acre tract of
ground and an adjoining plat numbering
Homo thirty-two acres. It is true thcso
deeds nro not ns yet on record , but it was
the privilege of a BEE representative to
sco ono of those deeds , and the gentlomau
making the purchase for the Armour
company ca'n but admit of the fact of the
purchase , The most important question
thnt linn faced Lincoln the present year
is the fact of this purchase , nnd everyone
will at once ask if this mcnns that Armour
is coming to Lincoln to locate a pack
ing house. The answer will come in the
fact that no other possible reason could
bo named if it did not moan a consumma
tion of this character. It has boon
known to a few for some months
past that aottvo and onorgotio measures
nave been advocated and put in motion
looking toward the securing ot institu
tions of this character , and there are
none who are at all acquainted with the
city bnt recognize the fact that on the securing -
curing of suoh practical industries rests
the future of the city and the solution of
the boom that at the present time nud for
the first time Is calling capital to Lincoln
for investment. Lincoln is already a
railroad center , with lines radiating in
every direction to Iho richest stock pro
ducing sections in the state. These lines ,
too , nro constantly being extended ,
until the future of the city as a railroad
center is assured. A prominent citizen
who , in the discussion of the city's fu
ture , remarked to an eastern man thnt
Lincoln was capable of calling in moro
products in every twouiy-tour hours than
uny town in the west , was not far off in
his statement , as capitalists are begin
ning to learn. Another citizen , in dis
cussing the future of the capital city as a
receiving and distributing point , was not
slow in pointing out the fact that the interstate -
ter-stato commerce law once in opera
tion would point the solution of the dis
criminations that have existed in the past
nnd cause capitalists to seek Lincoln in
stead ot Lincoln seeking captat. !
WHT NOT BEET PACKING ?
The BKE also is in position to announce
that Mr. Swift , ono of the greatest beef
packers in the country , has been in Lin
coln the past few days viewing the city
and its prospects while on a tour of gen
eral inspection in this * western country.
Air. Swift has lately been viewing
Omaha and its prospects nnd promises a
critical and careful examination , and on
the occasion of his visit to that place the
papers of the city announced his business
as seeking a location for an establish
ment of the kind in which ho invests his
capital. That the gentleman is visiting
Lincoln with a view of investing in ay not
bo generally known , but such is the fact ,
k nnd it undoubtedly would have its influ
ence if the city put forth its best efforts to
show what could bo done in Lincoln nnd
what the city in turn would do itself to
foster- institutions of this kind. What
would bo true and in favor of pork pack
ing establishments would bo true of
others of a like character , nnd that Lin
coln is attracting capitalists who scot
such business openings argues moro for
the future than the staking of town lots
out to remote districts in the surrounding
country.
THF. M1SSOUUI l-ACIFIC.
An official ofthis corporation , who
ruado n hurried visit to Lincoln the past
week , In an interview remarked that in
nil probability that company would done
no Inconsiderable amount of "building in
ka. Nebraska the coming year , and that Lin
coln would be nt least the terminal point
for one of its now linos. No company oc
cupying territory and lines in the state is
making moro preparations for now work
In the purchase and contracts for sup
plies than the Missouri Pacific , and the
purchases are not considered by those
who know necessary simply for repairs.
This company is undoubtedly preparing
to move into tbo rich fields in this state ,
with Lincoln as its starting point.
ABOUT TIIK crrv.
There has been DO published report ns
yet regarding the resources of tiic
county poor farm for the year past and
gone , and the public remains in the dark
as to the kind and oharactor of farming
that ls done at that ; place. It is stated
that the average number of Inmates at
the farm the last year was twenty-tour ,
and the fact arises to tbo surface at once
that a farm of ICQ acres , highly cultl-
vakHl , stocked with horses , cattle , hogs ,
machinery ana all the et oetras , with the
superintendent and all bolp on a salary ,
ought to produce enough la a year to
keep the twenty-four without cost. The
record , ns licrutoloru published , shows
thnt grocery bills , clothing bills , medicine -
cine bills nnd so on down the long lists
have all been paid in cash by the county.
With such a showing of c\icnso the
annual estimate asking some f 10,000 to
iniilnlaln the poor niufnoor ( arm for the
present year comes with wretched grace
from the board of county commissioners.

FIELD AND FAHBt
the Health of Swine.
Philadelphia Record : Cholera nnd
lung complaints nro diseases that
wcro comparatively unknown n quar
ter ot a century back , nnd the
typhoid fever is now said to bo another
disease with swine. The epidemic dis
eases have bafllcd the efforts of the best
veterinary surgeons in this country , and
until more light shall bo thrown on the
cause and euro of the diseases , and
especially of cholera , the farmers can
only use prevention. While the cholera
disease may ns yet bo beyond medical
skill , there nro those who attribute the
cause to the lack of vigor in swine as
compared with the stock of former years.
Wo have bred the hog to conform to
our own desires. Wo have taken away
his activity and changed him to n
clumsy , corpulent mass. From the pure
water of the streams , the fresh air of the
forests nnd the varied food secured by
exertion wo have removed him , substi
tuting filthy slop for drinkditry sties and
a Continued diet of grain. Added to
these disadvantages lie is closely inbred ,
nnd grows up in Tifo under artificial con
ditions that are not always favorable.
These who imiko hog-raising a specialty
well know that the short snouts , dish
faces , fine bone , short letrs , heavy bodies
and the rough hair bred away , as is thc
case with some of the mire breeds , ht
8
changed the present porker to n diflorent
creature from the ono that grazes in the
forests and feeds on mast.
As corn is n staple crop it is usually
made a staple food for hogs. When
closed in pens but very little clean , fresh
water is given thorn. If turned on the
growing clover they are "ringed" in
order to prevent rooting. WhatTs neces
sary to prevent the epidemic diseases in
herds is to give the hogs the same atten
tion that is bestowed on nil other classes
of stock. Because "anything will do for
a hog , " as is supposed , Is no reason for
confining the animal to n single diet or
withholding crccn food and that which
affords n variety. The hog is not natur
ally n filthy animal , nnd can no more
thrive in filth limn can the steer , while
pure air and water are absolutely nec
essary.
In-breeding , however , has contributed
its share to tlio injury of the hog. Not
that the brooding is of the same family ,
but that the breeds have been bred down
too fine in order to secure exterior points ,
thus destroying vigor. No doubt that by
crossing the breeds on the farm , by using
mails of different breeds every year ,
much ot the ditliculty may bo avoided ,
but as long as farmers have their prefer
ences of color they will be slow to make
radical changes in breeding , and yet it
can bo done without detriment to the
best qualities of hogs.
liow to Treat Small Fruits.
Work among the strnwborrics , rasp
berries nnd blackberries must begin
early. The mulch may be removed from
strawberries now , and as soon as the
frost is out of the ground a bag of super
phosphate and one of muriato of potash
should bo scattered along the rows , and
the hoe used , but in so doing it should bo
to only lightly chop in the fertilizer and
not to disturb the roots , which work also
cleans the gronnd around the plants.
Fresh clean mulch may be applied after
the plants are in blosson , in order to re
tain moisture during the warm days , and
to protect the berries from dirt. Young
plants , intended for n new bed , should
bo set out early , so ns to got the benefit
of the spring rains. If put out late , and
the season becomes dry , many of them
will perish. In preparing the new bed
plow the soil deeply , scatter fine , wcll-do-
composed manure over the ground and
harrow the surface several times , so as to
have the soil in as fine condition as pos
sible.
AH the old canes of blackberries and
raspberries that have not been removed
before now should bo cut out and the
young plants worked as early ns can bo
dono. Manure is a great factor in pro
ducing heavy crops , but as fruit-growing
and stock-raising are two different pur
suits enough manure cannot always bo
maintained for a largo field ; but nn ex
cellent fertilizer can bo made by mixing
200 pounds superphosphate , 300 pounds
kainit and 200 pounds ground fish , using
a good handful around each plant early
in the season and again applying another
handful after giving the final cultivation
to the crop. Grass and weeds must under
no consideration be allowed to grow be
tween the rows.
Grapes should bo trimmed now and
the vineyard well cultivated both ways.
As n precaution against rot dissolve a
pound each of sulphate of copper nnd
copporns in four gallons of boiling water.
Then add four gallons moro in throe or
fonr hours after , and while the solution is
warm use it for slaking freshly burned
stone lime , getting the limo into as Cue
condition as can bo done , Scatter the
limo around the vines , covering the
ground well and dust the vines also.
When the vines are in full loaf give a
light dusting over them again. If this
docs not prevent rot entirely it will
greatly assist in reducing its ravages ,
and by repeating the application for two
or three seasons the disease may bo erad
icated.
_ _ _
Seasonable Hint * ami Baftgectlon * ,
Quite a large amount of early lettuce
may be grown by sowing the seed in a
cold frame , and then thinning out the
plants while they are very small.
Run the roller over the wheat field as
soon as the frost is out of the ground.
After the soil is dry harrow the hold with
a smoothing harrow.
Grass seed is not easily killed , nnd for
that reason may bo sown as early as may
be desired. The mniu object should bo
to select clean seed.
On light spongy soils it will benefit the
horses to allow them to go unshod for a
while , especially when they have tender
foot.
It' is said that a sharp saw used on
small bundles of cornstalks is a conven
ient mode of cutting them into short
lengths.
Parsnips , carrots and other roots that
nro stored in the ground in moundi
phould bo taken up and placed in a coo
slaco in the cellar. If the soil bo mois
and the giound bccoino warm they are
liable to grow , which injures them.
Divide your rhubarb plants nt the roots
nnd make a now location for them. This
should bo done very early in the springer
or in the fall. Put thorn on very ricl
ground with the buds about ono or two
Inches below the surface.
Good implements save labor. The use
of an inferior plow during the busy sea
son not only delays operations to n certain
tain extent , but the effects of the poor
work done extend to the time when the
crop is harvested.
Crude petroleum , thinned down will
kerosene oil , is excellent for preserving
tools from rusting.
The cellar should bo protected as much
ns possible from cold draughts , damp
ness or sudden changes. A temperature
ns nearly uniform as possible , one
neither too warm nor too cold , is best
Sorghum seed is excellent for poultry
and as it thrives well on sandy sou it may
bo grown for poultry food , not as a gen
era ! crop , but to supply a small proper
tlon to feed as a variety ,
It Is claimea that by always selecting
seed potatoes from the most prolific hills
in a field the increase of yield will bo an
nually greater. It is an exporimon
Worthy of trial.
A sign of swarming is the building o
queen cells in the hive. After the bees
begin work on them the chances are that
the hive will swarm In about a week
after.
Save the soapsuds. Pour thorn over
ho manure heap. They will not only
add to the value of tbo manure , but as-
1st la preventing the escape of amonia.
An the warm weather comes on avoid
ceding too much corn to the hens , ns it
causns them to bccom'p lee fat , thereby
utcrfcring witii egg production.
Sulphur nnd old tobacco leaves burned
n the poultry-house , ' the house being
closed perfectly tight , will clean out the
red lico. (
A writer In Gardening Illustrated says
10 has found sulphide of potassium an
cllloient remedy for mildew on the straw

A contemporary suggests that a cow
can be easily led by the halter w hlch
iommands nor nose , but with difficulty
jy n rope around the horns ,
As n sow's litters improve In size nnd
qualify as the dam becomes older , and
heir milk usually increases , it is better
o keep old sows for breeding than to
'alien them for pork.
The moro rapidly nlr is brought into
contact with cider the faster the latter
will bo changed to vinogar. Draw out n
lltlo cider daily and return it to the bar
rel , if for vinegar.
It Is remarked that the agriculture of
ill counties , which produce largo nuni ;
bors of live stouk. is In a flourishing con
dition. They are rather buyers than
sellers of forage grains.
Ono of the best supplementary feeds
with corn fodder is wheat bran. Usually
it can be bought cheaply at this season ,
nnd is oven bettor in the winter as n sup-
| ) limontary feed for cows.
Sheep m the field scolc the highest
knolls for sleeping places. These are
generally poor , but sheep will soon enrich -
rich them. The grass is swcotor thcro ,
nnd the sheep are most healthy in such
localities.
If potatoes bo kept in cellars which
have damp bottoms thov should bo stowed
in shallow bins raised slightly above the
cellar bottoms. They keep best in cool ,
well-drained underground cellars.
Rules for easy subjugation of Canada
thistles are plentiful , but not practical.
Every attempt to eradicate this weed
must bo continued through the entire sea
son of growthor it will fail almost surely
and all its cost bo wasted.
No thnftv farmer will permit coarse
weeds , thistles , briars or bushes of any
kind to grow by the roadside adjoining his
fields. Ono or two days work each year
for two or three yoarsjwith n stout bush
scythe will causa thcso unprofitable va
rieties of vegltation to give place to valuable
uablo grasses.
A writer in the Farmer nnd Fruit
Grower advises against the planting of
fruit trees , especially peaches , near to
gether , saying from twenty to twcnty-
two.fcot is not too far apart. Ho claims
the wider planting makes hotter shaped
trees , with bettor access of nir and sun
shine , while the tree has a greater area
from which to draw root supplies.
If the weather becomes warm the bees
will come out on clear days and will
take advantage of thc opportunity to
clean out their hives. < Later in the sea
son the surast sign of swarming is the
heavy humming just previous to the bees
coming out , on which occasion the old
quocn and nor subjects' ' leave the hive to
the young queen nnd young bees. The
old bees always vacnto/pr ( the younger
ones when the hive becomes too full.
A few rules for making good butter
are : First , ' bo very clean in milking ,
washing the udder and teats before beginning -
ginning ; USD tin pails , 'troll scalded and
clean ; strain in a deep ( pan , about eight
inches m diameter , and twenty inches
dcop ; keep the milk cool : do not allow
the cream to stand over thirty-six hours
on the milk ; churn the cream thirty-six
hours after skimming , and keep the
cream at a temperature of G3 degrees be
fore churning. i
Heifers coming in witji thoirfirst calves
should bo treated very gently , the udders
and teats handled , nnd they bo made tp
become accustomed to the attentions of
the milker. The treatment of the heifer
in the beginning will shape her conduct
in the fuluro , and her dispositionns wolf
ns submission to being milked , depends
on the first week aftorbho brings her first
calf.

Cows that cat like gluttons and do not
yield milk corrcepondingly with the food
consumed are sure to entail loss. Where
there nro ono or two suoh cows in the
herd the host animals nro compelled to
supply the deficiency on the part of the
interior ones , and for that reason a
dairy herd should consist only of selected
stock.
Although the trotting horsn is valuable
as a roadster , yoi the fast walking horse
on the farm deserves n high place in
favor , as nearly all the work on the farm
done by horses is at the walking gait.
Thorp are times , however , when a slow
walicing horse is efficient , such ns when
cultivating between the rows.
In using seed potatoes select such as
are fresh and plump. The supposition
that it is best to use sprouted potatoes is
nn error , as the sprouting of the seed potato
tate before it is planted causes a lack ol
nutrition to the plants after tbo seed is
planted. Every sprout draws nourish
ment from the seed.

A CARD ,
TO THE PUBLIC
With the npproucU of spring
and the increased interest man
ifested in real estate matters ,
I am moro than over consult
ed by intending purchasers as
to favorable opportunities fop
investment , and to all suoh
would say :
When putting any Proper
ty on the market , and adver
tising it as desirable , I have
invariably confined myself tea
a plain unvarnished statoinont
of facts , never indulging in
vague promises for the future ,
and the result in every case
has been that the expectations
of purchasers wore inoro
than realized. I can refer with
pleasure to Albright's Annex
and Baker Place , as sample il
lustrations.
Lots in the "Annex" have
quadrupled in value and are
still advancing , while a street
car line is already building
past Baker Place , adding hun
dreds of dollars to the value of
every lot.
Albright's Choice was se
lected by me with the greatest J
il
care after a thorough study ] |
and with the full knowledge
of its value , and I can consci
entiously say to those seeking
a safe and profitable invest
ment that
Albright's Choice
offers chances not excelled in.
this market for a sure thing.
Early investors have already
reaped large profits in CASH ,
4
and with the many important * * 11
improvements contemplated !
some of which , are now 'under
way , every lot in this splen
did addition will prove a bo
nanza to first buyers.
Further information , plata
and prices , will bo cheerfully
furnished. Buggies ready at all
times to show property.
