A Coon PROPOSITION Col Ms Goss,
President of the Union Pacific, Southern
Branch, (generally known as the Neosho
Valley Railroad, called on US on bis way
from Washington. He speaks encoutsg
ingly of the prospects of his road. It has
large franchises, and is bound &c go ahead.
Col. Goss makes q suggestion
which is worthy Of consideration by
the Galveston aud NeoshO Valley compa-
MES, and all companies having land
grants. Each have large franchises Of
lands which the Government has with
drawn from market; and this Withdrawal
prevents settlement. His proposition is
to have all the railroad companies in the
State which have franchises, appraise
their lands, and give to actual settlers Ger,
tifcates of the right 10 acquire title to
such lands, on certificate of sale, to pay
one half when either road is completed
to the locality of the lands sold, and the
other half at some subsequent period.
This would open the lands to settlement.
and the settler would get long time, a
fair price, and be exempt from taxation
till the Government title is acquired.
Il the road is never built, the settler gets
the land at dollar and twenty Eve cents
per acre. Il makes their title sure, at all
events. The time runs out on The Gal
weston road in 1873. and on the Neosho
10 l876-lhus giving the use Of the lands,
without tax or payment, for six years,
and securing the advantages Of settlement
could any better idea be suggested
The land should be appraised 81 present
value. and thus give settlers she advantage
Of increased value, without paying ill the
title is sure.
The NeoshO Valley and the Galveston
have such unity OF interest that they
should work Ioge Der and consolidate from
their junction; but this Is aquestiOn fol
he companies. which will naturally cnme
about at the earliest practicable period

To PREVENT RABBITS FROM DESTROYING
TREEs.-There have been a great many
orchards destroyed in this state by the
RABBITS. 1t would probably be safe 10 say
that several thousands of dollars have
been lost by the depredations of RABBITS
alone. They girdle the tree around the
roots and entirely destroy it.
A great many remedies lave been sug-
gested. Mr.. G. H. Wilmington, of LYON
county, who has lived in the state up,
wards of twenty years, who has lost one
orchard set out by him in 1854. has Civ
en- US a remedy which be is sure is a Der
feet preventive. He his tried it effective
ly and says he will pay for all trees des-
troyed by rabbits after the remedy has
been applied. The remedy is this:
Catch a rabbit, and in the fall of the year,
having singed the rabbit so that the stencil
arising from the animal is decidedly dis.
rub the rabbit around the trees
and no live rabbit will ever be
seen near enough the trees to
gnaw the bark. The remedy is a SIM
pie one. 1t is inexpensive and so conf
dent is Mr.. Wilmington ofits entire effect
iveness that we hope our orchardists and
nurserymen who are troubled with rabbits
will not fail to try it the coming fall.
We advise all such to file away this arti-
Gle or make note of it, 80 that they will
not fail to try the remedy.-La0rene

AMERICAN WoMEN GRow1EG BEAUr1

AMERICAN WOMEN GRowIEG BEAUT1
FUL-A writer in the Round Table SAYS:
TIE women of America are growing
more and more handsome every year, for
just this reason: They are growing
rOunder of chest, fuller of limb and gain
ing subsistence and developement in eve
~ direction. Whatever may be urged to
the contrary, We believe this to be a dem
oustrable fact. We have been accustom
ed to hear such dismal means over dys
pepsia and the heat of stoves, bad food
and bad habits of life, that an impression
of degenerscy finds place in many minds,
and the proposition, therefore, that Amer
ican women are visibly growing hand
some, may at first provoke dissent. We
believe, however, that reflection and
observation will endorse and sustain il.
The change may be less marked among
the poor classss and may be more pro-
nounced in the chief centers of pOpula-
ton and refnment, but that it has taken
place, is progressing, and is probably dss-
tined favorably to effect the community
at large, We have no doubt. When the
rising generation of American girls once
began to wear thick shoes, to take such
exercise in tie open air, to skate, to play
crOquet aud TO affect the saddle, they not
only began TO grow more wise but more
beautiful, and which must follow as the
night follows the day-mOre beautiful.

II women covet the curse pronounced
against one of their sex for disobedienc,
6 600 years ago, no man will object, bu
all men, SO lar as l know, choose to b.
excused from sharing the curse against
Adam, of the same date. Here is q psrl
Of it:
"Cursed is the ground for thy cake; in
sorrow shalt thou eat of il ali the days Of
Thy life; in the sweat of thy face shalt
thou eat bread, till thou return to the

Nov. what man good or bad, thinks it
necessary to feel sorry or work himself
into sweat every time he eats a piece Of
bread, just because Adam did what he
was told not TO and was punished accord
ingly?
Mrs. Mr.. Els picture of a noble hus
band and loving wife is very beautiful,
but, unfortunately, under our present con
ditiOn Ofsufrage, such men and husbands
are very rare. There are not enough in
all Kansas for the dozen "chaste and elo-
quent" ladies of Baldwin City, and all
otheI women must take up with some of
those low men who frequent the dirty
pools of polotics or remain single. Such
being the Gaze. if they remain single,
rather than unite themselves TO q man
whose touch is pollution, they need the
ballot to secure their rights as single vo-
men; and if they marry Such man, they
need the ballot sll the more that they be |
protected from his brutality.

WuIrEwAsBING.-A this is the sea
son for spring house cleaning and general
'clarin' up time" We give ouI readers an
excellent recipe for making EhitsWash:
Take clean, water tight barrel, or other
suitable cask, and put into it half bushel
of lime. Stake it by pouring water over
it, boiling hot, and in sufficient quantity
to cover it five inches deep, and stir it in
water, and add two pounds of sufphats or
zinc and one Of common salt. These will
cause the wash to harden, and prevents
its carcking, which give an unsesmly ap-
pearanes 70 the work. If desirable, q
beautiful cream color may be added to
the above wash, by adding three pounds
of yellow ochFe; or q good psarl Of lead
color, by adding lamp, vine of ivory
black. For faWu color, add fonF pounds
Of amber, Turkish or AmsFican-the lat
ter is the cheapest--one pound Indian red.
and one pound common stone color, add
four pounds Of amber and two pounds
of lamp-bIack. This wash may be aP
piled with 3 common WhitsWaah brush
and Will be found much superior both IL
appearance and durability to common
WhitsWash.
