where stock jobbers trade in false

the faces of the poor--where the

occupy the front seat in the Syna

But renting to beer-garden is an
unpardonable offence, and Mrs.

The Berger Cnse.

In reference to tho case of Thomas
Berger, the unfortunate victim Of insan-
ity, who appeared in Battle Mountain n
few day ago, the Revsiiie observes that
the bill OF costs accruing to Lander
county from the examination and trans
portetion of Berger, presented to the
Commissioners of this county would
certainly be recognized as n just claim.
Through the Times-Rerietc we learned
that Berger had been n resident Of
Tuscarora, in this county, which fact
inclines us 10 the opinion also, that n
proper bill for services in the case,
would be honored by Elko. We are
thus influenced in cur belief because
this county has always been prompt
to recognize any just claim upon it al
though, to our positive knowledge
claims equally just held by her against
adjoining counties, when presented
werc totally ignored. As we remarked
in alluding to the ease in hand, Elko
has had moro than her full share of
these charity subjects Of every variety,
and notwithstanding the fact that a
large proportion Of them have come
from adjoining counties. II Elko has
ever been reimbursed for such expendi-
lures II has been very recently.

A Walla Walla dispatch gives the
following account Of the fight Mt the
Umatilla reservation:
News reached Colonel Miles, who
was at Penaieton. hat the hostiles
were at the reservation. He at once
started for the scene with 800 regulars.
After a march of about six miles and
within a short distance Of Cayuse Sta
ton, he encountered between 400 and
500 warriors. This was about S O'Clock
A. II. Getting his men in position,
Col. Miles opened fire on the hos,iles,
who returned it. but without effect,
neither side sustaining any injury. This
n continued without iutermission
until ~ o'clock. when the indians at
tempted to charge Miles lines, but
were driven of, the redskins being un-
able to stand the fire from the howitzer.
In the charge the Indians sustained
considerable loss, those present esti-
mating their dead Mt fifteen. Miles
casualties consist OF two men wounded,
n in the arm and the other in the leg.
Shortly after / o'clock the Indians fell
back toward the mountains.
This is the first time during the cam
paign the hostiles have attempted to
charge and show they are driven to
desperation.
The following dispatch from Pendle-
ton is of the same date: The troops
under Col. Miles drove the Indians In.

SPRING THOUGHTS.

u s.
The pas. autumn and winter have dealt
with US very kindly. Cold days aud nights
have been few, yet the spring may not be
early, and the grass and winter grain crops
may be injured Much of the ploughng
was done last tall. which will lessen the
spring work. All crops are better for
twice ploughing and puIverizing the soil,
the manure being spread as it should be.
The horse plough is the toolto cover it four
inches deep. Corn roots take a divergent
direction and take up the fertilizer as they
60, while the small grain roots take a
more perpendicular direction. The potato
roots also strike deep aud require deep
ploughng for good yield. The spraug-
ling roots also reach far away from the
hill We find various opinions about
ploughng some advocate shallow
poughing, some deep, but as rule, |
should go TO the bottom soil, ii it was SIX,
eight. or ten inches deep, and bring it up
I q to The surface, even if it cost little more
team work to do it. The crop will be al
most doubled, as compared with plough
ing of four inches. Some lands require IA
d heavy dressing every season, which is ex-
hausted by the crop, the sun and the dry
ing winds. Such lands would be more
profitable put into pine Or birch woods than
Tor cropping.
Some farmers believe that narrowing in
manure is the better method, aud some
make the hoe do what should have been
done by the plough. This is positive
error. | think manure shonld never be
put in less than tour inches deep, spread
with any field crop all OF its iertlllzIng
elements then meet the plant root, and 1t
is not so soon exhausted by drought or
drying winds. la the corniield there is
very little need OF the hoe-the cultlvator
or horseshoe will do nearly or quite all the
work. We would like TO know the use of
hill in a corn field, any more than in "a
Young orchard, when The tree is set out.
The roots take direction the same as with
the young tree, and half of the roots are
cut off in hoeing time. The hill gives no
support in high winds. Please take no.
tice-how much does three times hoeing
costp A sixteen inch spade Tor mulching
the garden is best, and twice muched is
all the better for the vegetables, some OF
which will not stop until they ''touch bot
tom." This is the way TO get wholesome
evaporation.
