Every few days we are compelled
0 publish the dismissal Of some
of the Order, for conduct
lnbecoming a member Of the Order
4 Patrons of Husbandry." The
imple statement is Indicative of
.wo circumstances connected with
i, of which We intend to write.
First then, the Order has system
of morals, q standard Of good be-
hayior, up to which it requires its
membership to live; and secondly,
some have found their way past the
watchman at the outer gate, who
are unworthy to enjoy the advan-
tages Of association with the pure
men and women who constitute the
membership of the great farmers
combination.
The Order demands of the candi.
date knocking for admission, that
he be of good moral character.
This does not simply mean that he
must not be drunkard, a thief, an
unchaste man, or woman, but it con-
templates, with those virtues, all
the kindlier, softer and more benev-
olent traits of the human heart.
Sobriety, industry, thrift and stead
mess are as much part of the req
uisites, as a clean record with re-
gard to mere personal honesty. Out
ward abstinence from dishonest
practices is sign Of inward fitness,
but not an infallible one, by any
means, because thief has often
great worldly prudence, and is thus
restrained from acts which are cal
culated to draw down on him the
ministers of the law. But the man
who is honest from principle, and
not from fear. may be known by the
correctness of his acts and general
course in life, and to this one trait,
we find, are allied all the other
virtues which fit men to become
good Patrons.
Where these things are wanting
in the candidate who proposes to
enter into and enjoy the councils
and society Of the Order, who pro-
poses to become an associate of our
selves, our wives, daughters and
friends, be assured that every con
sideration of worldly prudence, con-
sideration for the Order, and atten'
ton to its good name, and perpetu'
alton among us, demand a rejection
imperatively at our hands, no mat
ter what his social or business
standing may be. His acres may
be many, broad and rich, his system
of cultivation perfect, his flocks ant
and herds may pasture upon
thousand hills, but if he has no
these homely and unpretentious viz
tues, he is not fit material out o
which to construct a Patron o
Husbandry.
| A little more attention to tn
character, standing and qualities
tions of those seeking membership
will save the Order much injur
and a great deal Of modification.
Mere numbers alone do not ind
cate the true prosperity and az
vancement of the Order but thi
with high character and unsullie
! reputation, joined to devotion
! its principles and attention to i
teachings, will make it inconceiv
bly, strong. not only among Il
8 farmers themselves, but in the es,
nation of our fellow-workers of g
other pursuits in life. The foste
ing and development of these vel
virtues among our ruralpopulatio
4 is one of the highest, purest al
o best objects sought by the Order.

HAIR; RENEwER.-A correspondent
Of the N. Y, Herald gives simple re-
cipe for restoring or rather strengthen
ing the hair, SO that it will grow more
rapidly:
"Steep handful Of sage in pint
water. When cold strain it, adding
one tablespoonful Of salt, one gill Of
bay rum or other spirits. Bottle and
cork closely. If a very dark shade is
desirable put a few rusty nails into the
bottle or in the sage while it is steep.
ing. This not only promotes the
growth Of the hair, preventing it from
coming out, but restores the color. My
hair was coming out at fearful rate
after severe illness; this compound
arrested that and restored the color
also. ...

through the west, the pioneer spirit
prevails and some Of the old settlers,
as they see the evidences Of civilization
springiug up around them, yearn for
the adventures and trials of the from
tier. In consequence of this tendency
frequent opportunities are afforded to
purchase cultivated farms at figures
not much above the value of wild land
SToCK RAISING.
Especial advantages are offered here
for stock farming. Horses, Cattle,
Sheep and Hogs are remarkably free
from liability to disease The natural
pasture is luxurious and almost every
quarter section will furnish suficiens
amount OF wild hay for ordinary farm
use. In fact, there is almost no tame
hay grown yet. There are thousands
of tons, surplus, of wild hay and many
cattle have no other feed than the nat
ural pasture in Summer and hay in
winter.

A Candid Paper.
From the Sanoma Co. (Cal.) Flag.

From the sanoma Co. (Cal.) Flag.
California is not invariably good
couctry for a poor man. We cannot
honestly recommend any one to come
to this State, unless he has friends
here that will help him into business,
or unless he has some capital. Hun.
dreds of the incoming emigrants will
bitterly rue the decision that made
them sell their little homesteads and
cross the plains, landing in the promis-
ed land with their scanty means nearly
exhausted. They will earnestly long
for the feshpots Of Egypt, and their
complaint will DC better founded than
Was that of the ancient Israelites. In
many cases starvation will loom up as
a possibility.
If man comes here to build man
utactory of some kind, or to till the
soil, and has money to start his enter
prise and to support himself, he will
be the right man in the right place;

SOMETHING FOR, Us TO THINK
ABOUT.
How Northampton Lost the Western
Railroad.

In the books of from fifty to one hun
dred years ago, the only town of any
Importance We find mentioned in the
Connecticut valley is Northampton.
Now, why does not Northampton, to-
day stand in the same relative position
she did then? Why has Springfield
sucked her out? Because the men Of
Northampton did not understand their
time. When the Western rai)roa d
was laid out they thought it was moth
ing short of little foretaste Of a hot
ter region, and they organized a town
committee and signed petition beg
giug that the railroad might not 60
through Northampton. The railroad
was accordingly carried twenty miles
further south. What would North.
ampton give to day for that railroad ?
The possession of it would increase by
thirty per cent the value of all the
taxable property in town. Civiliza-
ton may be defined to be roads. Sav.
ages never barter, never trade; and
therefore they do not need roads.
The first mark of civilized man is a
road; he wants some way by which
the product of one locality may be
moved to another. Railroads have got
men together and annihilated distance.
Roads are civilization. vWho made
the roads? Why, the State made
them first, because the road was a; ne
cessity, the sine qua non to civiliza-
tion. You leave town in Iowa with
out railroad and it dies. You leave
a town in Massachusetts, without a
railroad and it becomes second rate
and staguated.

Arrest of an Old Resident of Mankate
for Stealing Horses.

Last week Chief Of Police Finch,
received instructions from the sheriff
of Sioux City to arrest one Geo. w .
Lay, an old resident of this city, for
horse stealing, and on Saturday after
noon he found his man and arrested
him, and on Saturday evening he was
taken through to Sioux City aud taken
to Mortified, Rice county, where they
were sold. Lay admits selling the
horses but claims that he bought them
but it seems that when he sold the
team he gave the purchaser an affida-
Wit, stating that he raised the horses,
they being twin colts. Oa his return
from Sioux last fall, Mr.. Lay brought
a number Of horses with him which he
sold in various parts Of the state. He
is now in Jail at Sioux City waiting
examination If they can prove all
they claim they can prove against him
it will 80 rather hard with him.
We learn that Mr. Lay waived an
examination and was returned to Jail
tc wait his trial.

Berkshire Hogs.

A correspondent of Coleman's Rural
Word says: The Berkshire breed is
the highest type Of the hog, aud this
fact is now almost universally admitted.
1st-they have strong constitutions
and resist disease better than any other
breed 2d-they suit the packer bet.
ter, being just the right size, have less
offal and furnish better hams and
shoulders. 3d-they are good breed
ers and mothers, mature early, fatten
easily and young, and can live in sum
mer on clover and grass nearly as
easily as sheep. In winter they will
live on clover hay. 4th-more pounds
Of pork from the same amount Of corn
or feed, can be made from the Berk-
shire than from any other breed.
But farmers should have pigs come in
March, aud they should be ready for
the packer in December, swhen, with
right treatment, they can be made to
average 300 pounds.

ploriug and examining the lands, and
in looking after the trespasses, and for
the scaling Of the timber, and making
the collections. This amount he does
not know exactly, but says it will net
exceed $4,000. He also states that
as the law. did not make it his duty to
collect such moneys and he collected
them just because there was no one
e,se to do it, he should be entitled to a
compensation for making the collcc-
tions, and asks judgment accordingly.
The replication Of the Attorney Gener-
al IS to the effect that the defendant
had no right to expend any money COL
lccted by MIN fol the State for any
purpose for which moneys had not
been appropriated by the Legislature,
and also the defendant Was not euti-
tied to any compensation outside of
his salary tor any services; that it was
the duty of the State Treasurer and
Attorney general to collect the money
with which the defendant is charged
in complaint; aud that the services
rendered outside of his official duties
in this behalf were voluntary encroach.
