Of Deadwood City, and he finds that
the total number foots up al, now be-

number there is not one but prospects

All this vast body Of quartz is located
within FIVE miles of Deadwood City.
In the neighborhood Of Custer there
have been about seventy lodes located
and recorded. There is a large num-
Der in the vicinity Of Bear Buttes, and
within the past few days number of
very fine mines have been discovered
in the neighborhood of Sand Creek.

Barns ,and'Stack;s,,., j.

An eastern farmer who has been to

ting myself on the back over what I
consider very good one at Ogden
Farm. was surprised at first to see
an almost entire absence of barns for
storing hay and grain in England,
where rain probably falls on twice as
many days in the year as it does with
us. The more I saw and thought
about it, however, the more came to
the conclusion that there is much to
be said on their side of the question.
They save the cost, and it is very
considerable cost, of building hay
barns. Their stacks are far enough
apart for the rest to be saved if one
takes fire. They are very handsomely
made, placed on wooden or iron frames
about two feet above the ground, are
considerably larger at the top than at
the bottom, and are nicely thatched
with wheat-straW. Some are round
and some are square. saw in one in
stance a very ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and
well-thatched stack Of hay containing
over one hundred tons, and on the
Earl of Warwick's Sewage Farm there
was a row of twenty-five stacks, con-
tanning each about five hundred dol
lars worth of wheat, all so well-built
and so closely matched that they
might stand there for ten years with
out the least danger. Whether the
stacking of hay in England accounts
for its superior QUALIFY I do not know,
but although the last season was an
unfavorable one, it seemed to me that
all the hay had occasion to observe
was better than the best we usually
see at home, greener, and more savory.
Owing to the projecting top and thatch
of the stack, there seemed no appre-
ciable injury to the hay from weather.

A Cistern or q Water Hogshead

1Aos,oAASH<>N'
A writer inthe American Agriculture
ist says:
When came into possession of the
premises I now occupy, five years ago,
there was large iron-bound cask at
the back Of the house, holding some
four or five barrels. This stood under
the ladder from the roof and caught
rain water for the family washing.
The well water was hard and the soft
water from the skies saved good deal
of soap and labor on Mondays. But
the use of the water from the cask
was accompanied with some difficulty.
It had to be carried into the house by
the pailful, and this was work. In
winter it was frequently frozen, and
sometimes SO hard as to push out the
bottom, and the services of the cooper
were needed for repairs. The melting
Of ice chips made slow work Of wash
ing. Occasionally in summer there
was a drouth, and the cask was empty
The cask was blessing, but with many
drawbacks.
I thought q cistern in the cellar
would remedy all these evils. 1t was
placed Immediately under the sink
room, in one corner, so that the walls
had to be built on two sides only. 1t
was made about seven feet by five up
on the the inside, and the walls were
carried up four and half feet high.
The brick was laid in cement, and the
wall was made double, and the inside
cemented. The whole cost was thirty
dollars. A pump was put in, with
about eight feet of inch pipe, which
took the water into the sink-room.
The comfort in the household Of this
little expenditure was very great.
There was no exposure to the weather
on washing days, no freezing Of water
and bursting Of casks. There is an
abundant supply Of water for the fam.
lily use for at least three months, even
| if not drop of water should fall from
the skies. An overflow pipe near the
! top of the cistern carries off all ex.
cess of water in case of heavy rains,
so that there is no danger of flooding
the cellar. In the absence of good
we'll, should put brick partition
through the cistern for a filter, and
have good drinking water. Ordinarily
a cistern can be built for less money
than well can be dug, and the filtered
water is pure and wholesome.

The Turnip.

Ask an Englishman what crop has
been most instrumental in building up
the agriculture Of the tight little
island and he will answer, the turnip.
American farmers may not expect,
perhaps, SO great returns from this
crop, for the English farmers, by rea-
son of their mild winters, are enabled
to feed the turnip to a considerable
extent in the fields where grown, thus
saving much Of the expense of harvest
ing. We have not yet learned by ex-
perience the full value Of turnips as an
item Of winter fodder, especially for
fattening cattle, young stock, horses
and sheep. The writer has in mind a
dozen or more prominent sheep raisers
who practice feeding turnips largely
during the cold months and with uni
form success. Their 1locks are always
healthy. Their lambs bring the high
est price in the spring, and they find
the custom far more profitable than
feeding much grain. The famou
Scotch beef of the London markets is
nearly all produced from turnips and
straw, and, as far as we know the ami
mails mature quite as early as our
American granted beef.

Fortune FavOrs the Brave.

In days gone by, when civilization
had just begun to dawn upon the human
race, chance reigned predominant in the af-
fairs of men. The Goddess of Fortune smiled
on those as Chance prescribed. Armies fell,
and were shorn OF glory in one day, while
wealth and opulence crowned the victors.
Men rose from the very haunts of poverty,
and by lucky stroke of the sword gained
honor and riches. But time has wrought a
material change. He no more struggles in
blood tor wealth, when more pacific oppor-
tunity affords itself. For instance, $12, Sc or
50 gives an equal chance for the good, round
gifts of 100000, $4,000, s25, 900, etc., to
those who may teel inclined to invest in a
bona fde and legitimate enterprise like the
Kentucky Cash Distribution Company" OF
