MAKING WINTER BUTTER.

One of our farmers says the Duchcss Fn'-
mcr manages to have all his cows fresh in
the fall, instead of the spring. Being then
fresh, and in their best condition, which is
kept up by judicious feeding of II mixture of
two quarts of bran and two of Indian meal,
twice II day, TO each COW, combined with
Yellow Globe mangcis, they yield good re-
turn of butter when it is ut the highest fig
ures, and turn out of the stable in the spring
in fine condition. When they would other
wise naturally fail off in their yield, the sue
culent grasses come in and keep them fully
up, with IN increased flow of milk The
daryman thinks, by such II plan, he gets the
better of our cold and cliangeablc winter
weather, and makes the most money out OF
his dairy in the twelve months Ills cows in
the spring look fine, with sleek coats. This
is probably partly owing also to the daily use
of the card, and access, in II well sheltered
and well bcdded barnyard, to plenty of wa
ter.

This cheese mandatory which is located
near the residence of G. w. Reed, Esq. is in
II very thriving condition this season. The
milk of about 200 COWS is used, making II

capacity are employed, and IS cheese per
week is the product of the factory. Average

gives ll-l00ths pounds Of milk 10 each

One of the most important matters to
come before the legislature this winter is
that Of passing law to compel the at
tendance of children at the public schools
during q certain length of time in each
year. The question has been thoroughly
discussed in the teachers institutes of the
different districts, and our teachers are
almost unanimously in favor of such q
law. Votes taken in ten districts, at in
stitutes, resulted as follows: LIST district,
lob to 6 against; in the Sd, Sc to I; in
the 4th, 80 to 5; in the 9Th, two-thirds
vote in the 9th, unanimous; in the 9Th,
So to 3; in the 9th, only one against; In
the 10th, Is to 2; in the 1lth, % to IL;
in the 18th, unanimous.
Superintendent McCarty states that
there are in Kansas $4,000 children Of
school age, OF whom only $1,000 are en-.
rolled in the schools and of those en-
rolled, perhaps not two-thirds are in reg
ular attendance. II is entirely safe to
say, we think, that not one-half of the
children Of this State are in school who
should be there. That the State has per
feet right, for its own protection, to take
legislative cOgnizance Of such a condi-
ton Of affairs, and compel prrents to see
that their children are properly instruct
ed, can not reasonably be questioned.
IGNORANCE is the mother of vice )" and
the State has just rs much authority to
legislate for the prevention as for the pun
ishment of wrongdoing. No State in
Union offers better facilities for the cd
ucation Of youth than does Kansas and
if parents will not voluntarily avail them
selves OF the opportunities offered, it is
just and proper that measures should be
taken to enforce their attention thereto.
And the men who pay taxes to build the
school houses and furnish teachers, have
right to demand that the State school
system, thus maintained with their mon
ey, shall be made to reach, improve and
elevate the whole mass Of the children
in the State.
A law similar to that suggested for
Kansas is in operation in Michigan, and
another in Massachusetts and the testi-
mony of competent and observing edu-
Gators in those States all goes to show
that the plan is practicable and yields
beneficial results. Prof. McCarty will
recommend in his annual report the pas
sage OF such law; and we hope the
legislature will promptly adopt the re-
n.-Commonredtfh.

STATE PRINTER.

Unquestiouably an effort will be made
the coming winter before the Legislature
to do away with the Office OF State frin-
ter. A resolution was offered before the
late editorial convention to this enec''
which, if we mistake lot, passed that
body.
A lot Of hungry printers is q fearful
sight, and to their appetites tor taste
of State patronage may be ascribed all
moves Of this sort. While we sympa-
tbixe with those fellows, as we do with
all needy and worthy persons, We be-
ieye the law should stand in substance
a. it exists to-day. To make change
we believe would be public injury.
1t is settled by all that since the printing
has been executed by State Printer the
work has shown more taste in every re-
spect and generally placed in the hands
of the public more promptly. As it is
under this constitutional provision the
work has to be done at Topeka, the seat
of our State government which fact will
introduce itself to all as preferable, to
aid the gearage of the different depart
ments, to being shifted from one part OF
the State to another but under the bidding
process {. man in Sumner county, remote
from railroads and general facilities, has
the same privilege to obtain the printing
as one in Topeka, or Lawrence, or Leav-
envorth. 1t is absurd to talk about the
Sumner county man doing the work in
Sumner county. Very likely the State
printing would be executed for less
sum in dollars and cents by being put to
a bid. but is more likely that the State
would be the loser in the manner and
style of the work. This is true Of the
past history OF the State. State work
is separate and distinct from newspaper
work and to do it an Office must be fitted
up exclusively tor it. There is no as
surance that any Office would so to the
large expense required, with the chances
greatly against it for obtaining the work
the following spring. The work could,
and undoubtedly would, be done upon
worn newspaper type and be made to
come within the pale of the requirements
though being a very ordinary job.
We say, "lct well enough alone" The
work is being done much more effect
lively and quite as cheaply as in any 9TH
or way. The State should have good
work and to secure it the printer should
be paid for it what it is worth. Nothing
so encourages man as proper remun-

The Republicans of Kansas have been
prognosticating among themselves for
the last two, three, four years upon the
subject of re-enfrsnchising those persons
disfranchised by constitutional provision
on account of participation in the rebel
lion. While much talk has been indulg-
ed in and many plans have been laid' De-
yond the enfranchising Of half dozen
or SO in different parts Of the State, moth
ing practical has been arrived at, and
though the people are ripe for the meas
ure and vast majority of them approve
it, it may be said that but little progress
has been made.
The question lies with the Republicans
in the main, rs the Democrats, its most
arduous supporters, are very small In
the count. That there has been gen
eral expression that the DISTINGUISHING
amendment be done away with, we hope
one of the first bills introduced into the
Legislature this winter will be one fol
this purpose and that it will be pushed
to early passage. We are personally &C
auainted with Gov. Harvey's views upon
the measure, which are decidedly Of an
affirmative character.
To one with half of an eye it would
seem that there was trifling by some o.
the sharpers in the Legislature two win
tiers ago. One bill was introduced into
the House and another into the Senate
Just before the adjournment Of the Leg
islature, both passing, bat as one was not
the other it would have been as well, be
yond the moral effect in assisting the
ball of public assent to roll On, had nc
effort been made. Last winter, we are
glad to chronicle, there was better and
more genuine work, though it tell fan
short Of meeting the case. 4 bill should
be passed taking in every ex-rcbel and
every DISTINGUISHED Union soldier. is
indeed sad commentary on any who
discountenanccs entranchisement on the
plea that injury is to result to our State
or to our people. 1t would take an i'm
mense immigration of these Southerners
to affect the politics Of Kansas, and they
could not, did they so desire it, under our
thorough laws, vigilant officials and the
high tone of our society, injure the State
But they are among our best citizens
Where they have settled among US they
have gone to work to better the condi-
ton Of themselves and theirs, showing
that they appreciate that the duties OF

all mankind. Making worthy citizens

longerbe excluded from the privileges ac'
corded to citizens.
