Oar corn buyers have been ship
ping large quantities to Baltimore
They had rates of freight which
justified them in paying about five
cents a bushel more for corn than
almost any other point in the
State was paying. The rates have
been increased twenty dollars q
car and the price of corn has de-
clined in proportion. So it goes.
Up goes freights, down goes grain
and cattle, and up go groceries,
lumber, salt and all other imports.
The remedy for this state of things
is to build a cheap road of onr
own. The people are abundantly
able to do it. The cash savings
for two years will do it.

From the Real Estate Register
REPEAL IT.

Again We call upon our legisla-
tors to repeal the law requiring
the annual levy of one mill for
school purposes. This is one OF
those provisions origi nally neces-
sary, which has long outlived it's
usefulness. So long that many
people and some newspapers speak
of it as a part of the constitution;
admitting its mischievousness,
but thinking it too much trouble
to get rid of it. This statute was
enacted in 1861 and may be found
in Sec. 76 of the general act for the
regulation and support of common
schools, page $50 of the General
Statutes. At that time, and for
some years thereafter, there was
no fund to speak Of except the
one derived from this source, and
1t was needed to form a nucleus
for permanent fund. That fund
has now grown SO large from the
sale of lands that it seems to be
impossible to keep it well and safe
ly invested.
The accumulation of this princi-
pal, OF which only the interest can
be used, ought to be stopped, or at
least discouraged as much as pos
sible. The following plan will
do it, and at the same time
provide the safest safest posi-
BILE investment for the principal,
and the highest rate of interest.
Fix the minimum price of all ua-
sold school lands at higher rate,
say five dollars per acre. Then af-
ter the first payment, leave it OPP
tional with the buyer to pay any
more principal or not. Fix the
annual interest as high as posi-
sible and still discourage the pay
ment of principal, secure its
prompt payment by heavy penalty
for failure, 1.-THE same as we do in
the case of taXes) with a forfeit
ure of all rights if delinquent be-
yond a reasonable time. Proba-
bly, for some years to come, ten
per cent. will be paid by a large
majority of buyers, rather than
pay the principal. No buyer
should be allowed to pay any of
the principal without giving rea-
sonable notice of his intention to
do so, and then only on a given
day, which should be the Same for all
parties so that the commissioners
could prepare for its re investment,
At the rate we are going under the
present law, we shall not have as
large permanent fund from our
two sections as some of the other
States have from their one. Our
minimum price is too low, the in
terest is too low, and a large sum
is idle all the time.

SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA,
CHRISTMAS DAY.
DEAR OLD FRIEND 81 wish the
statueque p. NJ. of Emporia could
take a peep out of my window to-
day. 1t rained last night, but to-day
is clear and beautiful. 1t is a queer
fact in this queer country, that it is
always warmer after q rain. The
mountains, ten miles away, are still
wrapped in clouds, but here In the
valley the birds are singing as riot
Ously as in your May. The poplars
and Othern northern trees have shed
their leaves, apparently as matter
of habit; certainly Jack Frost has
been guilty of no compulsion. The
weeping willows are in full leaf,
though the foliage is pale in color
but the oraDge-trees, magnolias,
eucolyptuses, and Ceylonese pep
per-tree are wildly green, and the
northern evergreens are growing
faster than in summer. The Gala
lilies, stately and queenly, are
blooming everywhere, and the trop-
ical varieties of roses seem to have
no thought of winter. There is a
smaller variety of flowers now in
bloom than there was In mid-sum-
mer; and the green grass makes
every yard and field beautiful. Peo-
pie are planting out acres of cab
bages and caulifiowers, and the mar
ket is heaped with fresh vegetables
and fruits. We have this month
eaten the largest strawberries that
we have yet seen. These, fair and
fresh, and newly-gathered sweet
green corn. are heaped in our mar
ket to-day
l must again express my wonder
al the quietness of the atmosphere.
/ have now been here six months,
and during all that time, there has
not been such a breeze as to prevent
one from carrying q lighted lamp
about the yard. However, this is a
local popularity. In San Francisco
the summer climate is windy
enough. have not yet seen any
frost, though it has visited some To-
calities. All in all, doubt If the
world holds q pleasanter town than
this, for people who have sufficient
means. But it is a poor place for
the penniless adventures who seem
to tOrong this state everywhere.
Rev. /. s. Kallach seems to be very
successful and popular at San 4 ran
cisco. 1 have met many former
friends and pupils. This is the place
whore all the ends of the earth meet
together.
All in all, 1 have every reason TO
feel hopeful and happy; and so L
will bid you a Merry Christmas,
and join the Gar in the attack on
Turkey. Fraternally, H.. BIN.

Burning the Prairie Grass
A New Idea.


Inotice your reporter in writing
of the prairie fire south of the Cot
onwood, Dec. goth, advised burn
ing the entire commons early in the
fall to prevent destructive fires lat
er, when the grass gets dry.
Unjust say that your correspond
ent certainly cannot be a practical
farmer. Ipresume that it is well
established fact, in the minds of
most farmers, that the grass when
left unburned for several years, will
retain much moisture and that in
the vicinity of large bodies of I'M
burned grass, we have heavy
dews in a dry season, while i'll the
vicinity of large burned districts
there will be no dew, and the crops
of such seasons will be perceptibly
less where the grass has generally
been burned in the fall or winter.
My advice, after ten years of expe-
rience in Kansas fires is, that every
farmer should keep at all times, at
least one % gallon water pot with
extra large rose, also one tight bar
rel constantly in readiness, and ear
ly in the fall, as seon as the grass
will burn-select your time in the
afternoon with good wind blow
ing in the direction you wish to
burn your line, and with the help
of four or five men, with sprinkler,
mops and wagon with water-start,
taking each side of the line, after II
is wide enough, say 100 to $50 yards
wide, and put it out. Make your
calculation to go to some or creek,
or follow it until in the night when
ii will cease to burn, or burn SO
slow that you can go around it and
put IL all out. Thus you take nc
risk. With scuh general fire lines
run through the country in each
neighbOrhood the farmers would
be safe from all such fires as the one
referred to, and the grass could
thus be kept on the ground, and
would certainly add much to the
wealth of the State, in few years
of such management. To retain the
mold and burn of the grass occs.
sionslly, a burn should be made in
the latter part of winter when the
mold in the bottom is frozen and
enough of the tops of the grass dry
to burn. OCCASIONAL.

There have been two winters
that we know of in Kansas, that ice
did not form over two inches
thick, and that only for a few days.
We would advise those who in
tend to put up ice this winter to
get ready before it gets very cold,
for the chances are the crop will
be light one.
