non to. Spring Creek, in order to. arrive. at
something practical and to open the way
for commencing work. The measurements
show that by building dam in the Cannon
so as to raise the water 10 feet, % feet fall
can be obtained at Spring Greek. The
water will have to be carried about
five miles and the deepest cut will be thir-
ty-one feet. The power obtained will be
equal to 1900 horse power. The engineers
are still at work and will be able within a
couple of weeks to give the estimates of the
cost, which is just what has been needed
all along. When this is ascertained then
we shall know whether we are to be the
greatest manufacturing point in America
or merely to be the leading city in Mime

1T is said that'' variety is the spice of
life." If that is true of other things it
must be of Reapers. And with that in
view, Mccormick & Bro are this year Of
fering several kinds of machines. To those
who have large harvests and wish to cut
18 or 20 acres per day, we can furnish our
six and half foot New Reliable, which
has the latest improvements for raising
and lowering and for taking up lodged
grain. For those who wish for a light
draft combined machine we offer our we'll
known Advance which, when changed to a
mower, is the complete Mccormick Now
er," more of which are sold and used in
this County and State than of any other
style of Mower. These machines are war
ranted to cut grass and grain in any con-
dition and on any kind of ground that a
pair of horses can be driven over. Farm
ers are invited to call at my Reaper yard
and see my sample machines.

On Monday City Engineer Danorth
took measurement of Barn Bluff with .
view Of ascertaining the praeticability Of
street up, in view of converting the Bluff
into City Park. The height above Bluff
street at the head Of Main street is 278
feet, and that road could be constructed
up the Bluff with rise of fourteen feet in
every one hundred, which is only twice as
great as the grade of Bush street from
Main street to the river. It had been
thought that road with l6 to Is feet
rise to every one hundred feet would be all
that could be expected, The grade is by 10
means difficult one, and when street is
constructed it will be one Of the hand
soonest drives in the city. Let US have a
park of which the city can be proud, and
let that be on old Barn Bluff.

We clip the following compliment to
our growing city from the Hutchinson
Enterprise, which, by the way, is an enter
prising. spicy paper and does credit to
its editors:
1t is with pleasure that we notice through
some of the State papers, the evidences Of
the prosperity and growth of the city of
Red Wing. It is one of the first cities of
the State, as regards location, surround
ings and natural advantages. 1t is a first.
class commercial point, and efforts are now
being made, which if successful, will make
it rank high as manufacturing town.
Red Wing owes its popularity to the solid
ity and activity of its business men, to the
liberality and alacrity with which they
have supported all worthy enterprises. It's
citizens have been liberal in the building
and supporting Of educational institutions,
and are constantly on the alert to find some
opportunity to permanently advance the
interests Of their city, and to offer attrac-
tions and advantages for visitors, or for
those seeking residence. 1t is a city
after which every town desiring to be pros
porous should pattern.

Europe and America, and thoroughly un-
derstands his business, as visit to Mr..
Kellogg's gallery will prove. Mr.. X. in,

the incorporation of the town year ago, and
the growth of the locality and increasing pop

iginally the Gazette, now the Sentinel,at pres
ent very credilable institution run by Mr.

replete Office is equally credit to the employ

the majority of large city establishments. In
deed, altogether, the growth of that section
has been most gratifying-its exceeding pro-
ductiveness in the prosecution of agricultural
pursuits,added to its rapid commercial growth
in the establishment of a magnificent eleva-
tor, sash and door works, an excellent bank,

It is Not Generally Known

That the shortest possible route between the East
and Great West is through St. Louis, over the St
Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Line.
This road mas gained surprising importance by
reason of immense expenditures in the last two
years, of over two million dollars, besides earnings,
in improvements Of roadway, in relaying their
line with best quality of new steel and iron rails
on broad new ties, and by substituting for ordinary
cars new reclining chair coaches elegantly carpeted
and fitted, with dressing rooms with toilet conven-
fences for ladies, gentlemen and families travelling
with children, igitboW Gny extra charge This line
runs six fast Express trains between the Missis-
sippi and the Missouri Rivers, two more than any
other road, and connects with all the great Land
Grant Roads in the West, and has adopted all mod
ern appliances for comfort, speed and safeguards
against accidents, including night and day watch
men, who inspect the road before and after the
passage Of each train to see that everything is in
order. We recommend those contemplating a trip
West to take the St. Louis, Kansas City and North
ern Short Line, it being the only line running
through cars between st. Louis and Omaha, and
for tickets over this excellent line refer our
readers to any ticket agent selling through tickets
to the West. For map, circulars and time tables
address either Geo. D. Teller, Buffalo, n. Y; or
P. B. Groat, st Louis, Mo-, either of whom viii

Missouri, Kansas G Texas R'y.

The completion of the great iron
bridge over the Missouri River at
Boonville, enables this popular line
to offer still better facilities for the
business between the Northeast and
the great Southwest.
Two daily trains will be run be-
tween Hannibal and points in the
great Neosho valley, in direct con
nection with all lines. Also, two
daily trains between st. Louis and
points in Southern Kansas.
For the Texas trade, new and bet
ter facilities are offered. The rates
have been greatly reduced, and ar
rangements have been made whereby
through Pullman palace sleeping cars
are run from Chicago, Quincy, Han
nibal and st. Louis, to Galveston,
without change, passing through the
finest portion of Southwest Missouri,
Southern Kansas, the Indian Nation
and the most desirable portion of
Texas.
Any one contemplating a trip to
Southern Kansas, the Indian Nation
or Texas, should address Thomas

by the arrival of beautiful spring,
with its balmy days, warm showers,
green fields and budding trees. But
with all this beauty and brightness
comes work. The gardens must be
made, lawns cleared up, house
cleaning, painting, papering, white
washing, &C., to be done. For as
Nature awakens to new life and puts
on fresh livery, so we, naturally,
initiate her in this; and what more
fitting example could we follow than
hers
Now, such being the case, it is a
matter of the greatest Importance to
know how best to do this, and where
to procure the necessary materials of
the best quality, and at the same
time at the least cost. That "the
best is the cheapest in the end,' is a
fact accepted and acknowledged by
all. First it is the best at the begin
ming, lasts longer, costs no more for
the labor to apply than poor mate
rials, and lastly, there is very little
difference in the first cost.
lam speaking now of paints in
particular. Do you want to paint
white? There is no better or cheap
er made than the Phoenix Brand of
Eckstein Hills & Co., for which
am special agent,
1t has now been tried in this city
and county for ten years, and meier
for once, has it failed to give eutire
satisfaction. And l do firmly be-
lieve and assert there is no better
lead made. For cOlored paints, for
cottages, &C., we have our own
colored paints, which, for durability
and cheapness, far excel all liquid or
chemical paints. They never fade or
peel, and retain their lustre for y4ars
Zinc Paint, Graining Colors, Var
nishes, and Brushes to use them, al
ways on hand, of the best quality,
and at the lowest price. So much
for paints.
Now, after painting, the smoky
walls must be papered and decorated;
whitewash won't do, it rubs off, and
soon looks as bad as ever. Ihave the
largest and best variety of Wall Pa
per ever brought to this city, which
must be sold at the lowest prices.
Now this is saying q good deal, butif
you think of papering, don't buy un-
til you look at my samples, and you
will be convinced that this statement
is true. But doyou ask where is this
place ? Where are such bargains to
be had ? And where only are the
best goods kept ? Why Where
else than at McCulloch's old and
reliable Drug Store! Established SO
years ago Come and see.
