WHEAT.
kansas Farmer

The wheat crop has many enemies and
mishaps, and among them not the least Is
A safe deliverance from the frost. of winter.
While protected by covering Of snow the
young plants are shielded from the action
of frost and winl. Ife1posed by sudden
rhaw the young plants are very tender, and
a sharp frost, which Is almost sure to fol-
low rapid thaw, will destroy and iDjure
the wheat to an incalculsble extent. And
March. with its drying winds, Is one OF the
severest ordeals for the young wheat. Early
Gown wheat, with propitiOus autumn, goes
into winter quarters strong and vigorous,
and has many odds in favor OF its coming
out vigorous in the spring, and pushing for
ward rapidly.

FARMER HORSES.


We have always combatted the idea Of the
ordinary farmer attempting to raise last
trotters or running horses; tnat must be lefi
to the gentlemen of leisure, who has plenty
of money, and breeds horses simply to graf
ify his tastes, or "a a recreation. But the
man who depends On the proceeds Of his
his farm for living cannot afford to in
dulge in any such expensive luxury as
breeding for speed hiss proved
to be. But there is a type of horse that
farmers can breed with certain profit, and
that is the heavy, blocky, compact, active,
quick-steppiug horse, weighing from ], 80 TO
1000 pounds. No man ever raised a horse
of that description at los-, and no farmer
ever raised such horse that would not
readily sell at handsome profit. IL is the

A WORD IN SEASON REGARDING SHEET.
IExchauge.l

Capt. P. C. Kidd reports that during the
recent heavy SHOWS in Kentucky, (which
appears to have been unusually deep, and
lasting some six weeks many sheep were
lost from some cause TO the breeders I'M
known. He suggests that it was probably
owing to too much dry feed and having
nothing to eat How nice would good
feed OF Turnips each day have been.
That is where the English breeder beats
the American. The wise man foresees the
evil, and avoids it, or words to that effect,
was the opinion of Solomon.

CHILDREN CANNOT SLEEP TOO MUCH
lI-rciA AnnnalI

There is no danger that children can
sleep too much. The old proverb, who
sleeps, eats" Is illustrated in thos. little
ones who sleep most Wakeful children
are almost always peevish, irritable snd
lean. If they can be induced to sleep abun-
dantly, they are quite likely to become
good natured and plump. Their sleep
should be as much during the hours OF
darkness as possible, and therefore it is bet
ter that they should go to be bed before sun
set to have their sleep out, than to lie long
after sunrise in the morning. 1t is well to
le. any nealthful, growing child or young
person sleep till he wakes himself, and then
give him such variety and amount of out
door exercise "a shall make him glad when
bed time returns

In a recent visit to the country, We were
told of great Losses among bees by smoth,

We would not call it by that name how
ever. The breath Of the bees, had been
CONCEALED by frost, and a thaw occurring, ii
had dissolved weiting the bees, and as the

Daring the call of the roll a solemn still

name of Mr.. Wilson had been called, and
in a clear and distinct voice he responded,
John J. Ingslls," making'the necessary s.
votes, did the suppressed enthusiasm break
forth. A loud, prolonged and deaiening
cheer reyerbera:ed through the Capitol
building; members rose TO their feet, for.
getting, and caring less. tl-at the roll had
not been completed. In the excitement OF
the moment strong men embraced each
other; cheer upon cheer was given, and in
the wild delirium Of the scene some faint
idea may be formed Of the fast hold Senator
Ingalls, has upon the people of Kansas. The
large crowd in the hall seemed TO vie with
the members, who had worked so hand for
Mr.. Ingalls, success, in giving an exTres
sion of the Joy they felt over the result.

Notwithstanding the vindictive, mali
cious. disyraoeful, and outrageous means
resorted to by aspiring politicians to de-
feat him, Mr.. Ingalls, stands as the fttest
and ablest man TO act and speak for the
e,.pire of Kansas in the most august de-
Lucrative body in the government Of the
world. The people approve him, his rec
ord approyes him, and his compeers in the
senate approve him. He has honored the
State by his brilliancy of intellect, his
mower in debate, his knowledge OF parlia-
msntary law, and his answering Republi-
capism. Kansas takes her proper place in
the nations halls Of legislation when rep
resented BY such men, who are truly a re-
tlex of the intelligence OF her people.
ABILITY, CULTURE AND GOOD JUDGMENT.
[Abilene Chronicle.l
We are we'll satisfied with the election Of
Senator Ingalls,. As We remarked some
time ago, We are proud OF the record he has
made in the Senate, and We are satisfied
that before his term expires he will take
rank with the leading men of the nation.
In ability, in culture, in good judgment, a
an orator, and in integrity he is the equal
of any man in the Senate to-day. The Re
publicans have brought to the front in other
States men of brains and experience and
Kansas returns to the Senate a man the
equal of Logan, Carpenter and Conkling
and while the Republicans will be in mi.
nority in numbers, they will have large
