this place, which he did on Monday the
18th of january, consisting of Fl male

Peck's Experience With A Coal
Stove.

We ever had coal stove around
the house until last Saturday. Have
always burned pine slabs and pieces
Of our neighbours fence. They burn
we'll, too, but the fence got all burned
up, and the neighbour said he wouldn' t
build new one, so we went down to
Jones and got new coal stove. 1t
is called the Radiant Home" and
any man who says we didn't have a
radiant home at our house tor about
four hours last Saturday, night is a
Republican and a william. You see, we
didn't know anything about coal stoves
We filed the Radiant home about half
full of pine fence, and when the stuff
got well to going we filed the artesan
we'll on top with coal. 1t simmered
and sputtered about five or ten minutes,
and all went out and we put on an
overcnat and n, ~~ir.ef remark
ed, III the course Of the frugal meal,
that Jones was "fraud" for recon-
mendlng such a refrigerator to man
to get warn by, Alter supper we
took piece of ice and rubbed our
hands warm and went in here the
stove was, resolved to make her draw
fit took all the fence in the FIRST Ward
Our better half threw a quilt over her,
and shiveringly remarked that she
never knew what real solid conf
was until she get coal stove. Stung
by the sarcasm in her remark, we turn
ed every dingus in the stove that
was movable, or looked like it had
any thing 10 do with draft.
and soon the Radiant Home began to
heave up heat. It was not long be-
fore she suffered like the new Silsbv

ten minutes that room was as much
worse than a Turkish bath as Hades
is hotter than Aiverman's ice house.
the Precipitation fairly fried out of a
tin water cooler in the next room. We
opened the doors, and the snow began
to melt as far up Wire Street as Hans
combs house, and people all around
the neighborhood put on linen clothes.
And we couldn't stop the confounded
thing. We forgot what Jones told us
about the hampers, and she just kept
a boiling. The only thing we coaid
do, was to go to bed, and leave the
thing to burn up the house if it want
ed to. We stood off with pole and
turned the dampcr every way, and !
every turn she just sent out heat
enough to roast an OK. We went to
bed, supposing that the coal would !
eventually burn out, but obout II
clock the whole family had to get up
ind sit on the fence. Finally man
come along who had been brought UP
lmoag coal stoves. and he put wet
blanket over him and crept up to the
tove and turned the psr o p r

hat time has been just as comfortable

Timber.

In speaking of the lands laying
along the whole line of the Atchison
Topeka & Santa Fee Railr, al the cnIy
candid statement that can be made is
that native timber is scarce. From
Atchison nearly to Newton, timber suf-
fcient for fuel, fencing, etc., can be
found along the streams, but the COM
pletion of the Railroad and its low
rates of transportation on lumber, in
connection with the coal found in
abundance along its line, as we'll as the
rapid growth of the Usage Orange for
fencing purposes, entirely does away
with this comparative disadvantage Of
the insufficient supply of timber found
in every one of our western prairie
States, Notwithstanding the many un-
founded reports to the contrary.
In fact, one of the points of high
est value connected with the lands of
this enterprise. is its comparative
want of timber. We have magni--
6cent sweep of lands, beautifully sit
.uated, extremity fertile, and eminently
healthy, but almost entirely devoid of
trees. People from the Eastern. Mid
Gle, aud Southern States, not being
accustomed to this want of trees, be-
lieve at first it is serious drawback to
the future prosperity of the country,
Notwithstanding they are well satisfied
with the evidences of enormous sue
cess, both present and future. These
first impressions, however, wear away
as soon as they understand how much
better it is to buy timber ready pre-
pared for building purposes, and to
plant out hedges for fences than to go
through the old process of working for
lifetime in order to prepare farm for
the pillow They perceive that with the
most limited capital they can procure a
home, obtain their stock, and within
six or eight months raise crop suf-
fieicnt for all their wants.
They become convinced, too, that in
thisprairie country people surround
themselves much sooner with the com
forts of life, and that these natural gar
den regions much more rapidly fill up
with cities and towns, with) railroads.
churches, and all that goes to make
life desirable and happy
Under the laws of the State man
is made secure in his home, without
the assistance of fence, and is largly |
rewarded for every forest tree he
plants.
A careful consideration of these
facts shows that nature could not. be
more wise in her provision for the wei
