The other route is by way OF Reels
ranch, down Horse Creek to near its
mOutf, crossing the North Platte
River at Nick JaniSe's ranch, about
thirty miles east Of Fort Laramie,
and thence in n northcasterly direc-
ton. over II good road, to Red Cloud
Agency. This route is also Travelled
by II stage line, which carries the
mail and passengers from Cheyenne
to Red Cloud and Spotted Tai!
Agencies, owned by HOshier and
Cinnainnnd, aud also by freight
trains, ranchInen and settlers. This
route is settled up as far as the Platte
River, and all of the Indian goods
Tor these agencies, and most of the
military supplies for the two mill
tary posts at the agencies, Camps
Robinson and Sheridan, are trans
ported ovcr it. Tie fare to Red
Cloud is fifteen dollars, and the dis
lance from there to the Black Hills

HOW To REACH THE BLACK HILLS.
Without decrying any Of the pro-
posed routes from points on the
Upper Missouri River, we assert that
the route from Cheyenne northward
is the safest, sPeetliest, cheapest and
best, to reach the Black Hills.
Cheyenne is at the junction Of the
two cuInpering railroads from the
cast-the Union Pacific and Kansas
Pacific. 1t will be two days rail
road travel to Cheyenne from Chicago
or st. Louis. The following liable
will show the distance and present
rate Of fare from these two points to
Cheyenne:

We are credihIy informed by the
representatives Of these two railroad
companies, that special rates will be
given from Chicago and from st.
Luuis to Cheyenne, tn Black Hill
parties, which will be at least one
third less than the above rates.
FROM CHEYENNE TO THE BLACK
HILLS.
There are twp routes that may be
taken To the hills from here. The
one by way of Fort Laramie, Raw
Hide Buttes, Old Wonan's Fork
and Beaver Greek il 1872 miles. This
route passes through a settled cOun-
try for a hundred miles or so. Good
ranches will he found every few
miles as far rs Fort Laramie. There
is o a stage line on it owned by
j.. G. Abuey, that carries the United
States mail to and from the Fort,
and also passengers ut ten dollars n
piece. This line will he extended to
the Black Hills right away, If the
government permits 1t tn be done.
The road is AN unusually good one,
aud is constantly Travelled by the
military, by freighiers, by ranch
men, settlers and others. The fol.
lowing table of distances over this
route is correct:

Curing Fodder Corn.

I have heard it said that it was al
most or quite impossible to cure fodder
corn so that it would come out in good
condition for feeding in the winter
But several years experience has con-
vinced me that such is not the case
make a practice of growing each year
considerable more of this crop than l
want to feed green. For dry fodder /
think is one of the cheapest and best
crops which can be grown on the farm
If the land is made rich and proper cul-
tivation is given, large amount of the
fodder can be produced on an acre, and
as there is but little expense for seed,
and but little labor is required in its
cultivation, it makes some of the cheap
est fodder that can be obtained. Be
sides, the quality is very good indeed
Mixed with hay it is very nice food for
COWS giving milk. As it combines these
many excellencies, l think it is a great
object to grow this crop. And l find
no difficulty in curing it. cut it soon
enough TO get it well dried before fros,
comes, For cutting / use a. common
corn knife. Do not pat it in large bun
dies, but spread it considerably on the
ground. Let it be day or two and il
it does not seem pretty dry, turn it over
and let it dry another day, when it is
well dried bind it up and set it in
stacks of eight or ten bundles each. :
These are allowed to stand in the field
until they are dry enough to pack down
when they are drawn in and moved
away in the barn Cor Ohio Farmer.

Sabbath Courtesy.

Hospitality is nowhere more excellent
than in the house of God, and nowhere
is its neglect so inconsistent. He who
opens his pew to stranger may
strengthen heart and save a soul. The
Examiner and Chronicle tells the follow.
ing story:
When the First Presbyterian Church
was in Wall street, Robert Lennox, then
an eminent merchant, was a member
He took great interest in young men,
especially those who were strangers. He
invariably, on Sundays, took the position
OF usher, welcomed all new corners, and
escorted them to comfortable seats
Standing in the vestibule, one day, he
saw Young man coming up the steps,
evidently stranger, and with the air of
ore who felt himself an intruder. The
frank and hearty merchant met the young
man on the threshold, gave him his hand,
and told him he was glad to see him that
morning in the house of the Lord.
"You are stranger, / presume, he
said. 'af .t' -
es, this is my first Sabbath IN New
iork,and my mother charged me to rev.
erence the house of the Lord Z"
Just in from his country home, the
young man was not over dressed. Mr..
Lennox escorted him up the center aisle,
and seated him in his own pew.
The next morning the young man
went to q business house to see if he
could get small bill of goods. He
gave his references. :"
"Did l not see you in Mr.. Lennox's $
pew Yesterday said the merchant.
81 don't know,sir. A gentleman gave
me seat in church, and sat down be-
side me"
"Well, young man, that gentleman
was Robert Lennox. and I will trust any
young man whom Mr.. Lcnnox seats in
his pew"
That young man became an eminent
merchant. To the day of his death he
said:
81 owe all am in this world to that
Sunday when Mr.. Lennox invited Inc to
sit in his pew"
