merchant princes of Pineville, is fit

RARA AvIs.-One of the far seeing
merchants of Pineville became the
sole proprietor sometime since, of
the patent right to a domestic arti-
Gle, which is gaining steadily in pop
ular favor. Indeed, it is said that
families who have once used it will
not do without one. It is known to
the trade by the not very appropriate
but highly suggestive name of the
white OWL"
Mn. A. Gueringer, of Pineville,
enjoys the reputation of being a tho
rough merchant; trained in the great
mercantile establishments of the
Crescent City, he has acquired an
acquaintance with the nice details of
business that is invaluable, and that
enables him to take advantage of
many things that would be over
looked by amateurs, and which in
sures to the advantage of those who
purchase of bin. Let it be under
stood that while his goods are of the
best quality, his prices are the low.

THE supply of wood at the yards
along the river near Pineville, is I'M
usually short for the season, and it
is commanding higher prices than
at the same time last year. 1t is
doubtless favorable sign that indi-
Gates that the small farmers in the
hills who engage in wood hauling
to enable them to meet expenses
through the year, and becoming
more independent. Steamboatmen
may look out for a boom in prices
very soon.
Capt. Ben. Turner, of Pineville,
has made extraordinary preparations
to meet the wants of trade during
the season now opening; he has ex-
ercised great care in purchasing and
has added to his very extensive as
sortment of goods, many articles that
a now for the first time offered in
this market. His purchases which
aggregate many thousands of dol
lars, are always made in those mar
kets which offer the best goods at the
lorest figures, and his prices are cor
respondiDgly low. Call and see.

FRANCES R. AMsDEN, whose death
was briefly announced in these col
umns in it's last issue, and who died at
his home on the 3lst of August, 1880,
was native of the State of Indiana,
was born in 1919, and came to Rapides
in 1889, and with the exception of a
few years residence in Catalonia Par
ish, has been a resident of Rapides up
TO his death. He was purely good
and honest man, and during the long
years he made Rapides his home he al
ways enjoyed the highest esteem and
confidence of her people. He was pos
sessed of rare business traits and great
energy. The first Office he ever filed
in the Parish was that of Assessor, and
that he kept as long as he wished it,
which was over ten years. He made
it his special business to visit every
residence in the Parish on horseback in
furtherance Of his duties. and his as
sessments were undoubtedly the most
correct and perfect ever made. This
was proverbial, that no official ever
more completely canvassed old Rap
ides when possessed of all her old ter
ritory. Since the war he has lived at
Cotile, and has been the Magistrate for
that Ward. aud Post Master at Red
Store; he died filling these two Offices.
He leaves wife, children and grand
children to regret his departure from
this world.
Tear beloved flowers covered his
bier and large concourse of friends
paid their last sad tribute to him as he
was laid at rest beneath the sod. The
writer of this, and the last survivor of
the cherished and hallowed old social
club of which poor Frank was Vice
President, old friend and boon COM
panion, bids thee farewell, long
farewell Thy memory will live when
these chords, touched by Time, will
long have been forgotten. B.

Milk as Food in Summer.

The value of milk us food is not
sufficiently appreciated. A gallon
has Il food value equal to two and one
half pounds of beefsteak free of
bones. The gallon of milk cost 20
cents, while the beef would cost from
25 to 50 cents. Milk is especially
wholesome in summer, and might

of each meal. The stomach is best
prepared for reception of meal. by
first receiving some form of liquid
food. \ glass of milk or some bread
and milk ut beginning Of meal, pre-.
pares the stomach for more solid
food. During the hot months, milk is
cooling to the system and healthfnl,
while too much meat is heating and
tends to produce digestive derange-
ments. The milk may he regarded as
lioui.l meat, and nour1shes the system
equally as we'll as solid meat. The

One Of the most important ele-
ments in the problem Of our foreign
trade in bread stutfs, dairy products
and provisions is the vast number of
men in European armies, and the vast
cost of supporting them. This in
wolves an enormous tax upon indus
try and largely increases the cost
while it diminishes the products of
agriculture. The number of men
that are withdrawn from productive
pursuits and forced into the armies in
Europe are about two and half mill
ions (2,500, 0,000); about one million
horses are also made useless; and the
money drawn by taxes from indus
tries, and it must be remembered that
the trite adage the farmer pays for
all," is literally and positively true
amounts to 5000. .00O, 900 yearly. Thus
there is a double waste, not only is
so much labor lost, but the effective
labor is taxed and burdened to SUP
port the idle men. In America we
are fortunately delivered from those
onerous burdens; our Drawn, muscle,
and mind are fully employed, and be-
ing free from this weight and burden.
no other nation can successfully COM
pete with us in any of our industries.

In matters of unimportance, local
option is right, but III matters Of vi
tai interest to the public welfare it is
wrong. If the State permitted men to
kill each other, it would be right to
let them choose the manner in which
it should be done, but since killing is
not permitted, it evidently would be
wrong to permit them to choose any
method of taking life. Education is
of vital interest. Without it we shall
perish. It is evidently wrong to per-
NIT people to choose whether we shall
educate or not. If 4 house is Oil fire
there is nothing left but to save life
and put it out. The requirement is
imperative. The country demands
education rs a necessity. It's to save
us from death, aud if any person de-
clare they will not he educated, or
permit their children to be educated.

How to Keep Chickens.

Keep record of your work. DO
not burden your mind with trying to
remember either your successes or
failure. If you make an experiment
record it. so that you can trace it up
for reference if it is success; if Il
failure, you can protect yourself a.

the bones from the table to he thrown
into the dust heap. or lie around the
yard; throw them into the fire, burn
them Il little, crush and give them to
your fowls. If bread is burned. or
anything else that is cooked in the
house, do not throw it away, but use
it as charcoal for your birds. If they

AS rule, where fowls are kept, no
other poultry should be kept with
them. Hens with young chickens
should never be let loose too early in
the morning. nor should the hen be
allowed to eat too freely of the chick
en- food; she will lay too soon, and
leave the chickens before they are
old enough not to require the warmth
of the hen at night. II any of them
are sickley or dropping. give them

Drv Time in Missouri.

4 dispatch from independence Mo-.
says: The long-continued trouth is
doing great damage to the corn in
this and the eastern part of the coun-
ty. There has been no rain east of
Big Blue, of any consequence, since
July 3rd, and the farmers are expert
encing great trouble in finding water
for stock. Several instances OF driv-
ing cattle ten miles. to the Missouri
river, are known. Old citizens say it
has not been so dry SINCE 1854. Un-
less rain comes soon there will not
be more than half crop of corn on
upland farms, and two.thirds in the
bottom. The ground is perfectly dry
several feet. deep.

Dairy.

\ large portion of the possible val
he of the products is lost by reason of
not having the right things in the
right place. \ dairyman for instance
who has not the right kind of COWS
must submit to receive yearly in
come of $40 or $50 per cow, or less,
when lie might otherwise gain 500 OF
$50. \ keeper of poultry may not re-
ceive from his fowls the actual value
Of food consumed; or the feeder of
pigs may find himself in the same
predicament when he sends his pork
to. market. Much Of this preyenta-
bic loss occurs from want of judg-
ment or discrimination in selecting
or breeding stock. The live stock of
a farm, and more especially of the
dairy farm upon which no crop, but
only animal products are sold, are the
tools OF instruments, SO to speak, with
which the profits are dug out of the
soil. If the tools are not the very
best, the work done by them is pro-
portionally poor and poor work is not
profitable. 1t is then of the first i'm
pOrtance that the animals which are
to be used as machines should be of
the very best kind.

Poultry,

Through the summer months the
poultry interest is no longer a fever.
but progresses by a continual healthy
growth. The worry and vexation at
tended on the care of chicks is almost
over, and the vigilance needful to
prevent the loss of our lalf-grown
birds by hawks, serves to keep up only
a healthy tone of mind and prevent
the wearyness of Indifference. The
chicks are at the most ,minteresting
stage, and just as children are at the
''gawkey age" should be treated with
care and delicacy which will not at
the moment be appreciated, and in
deed, appears thrown away.

reason if he will only put himself in
the place of the purchaser One
man is much like another. Human
necessities and desires are generic,
and appertain to the race. So are the
necessities of families. which are
only small aggregations of individu-
ais. Thus if one person wants some-
thing that is good and is put up in
good shape and convenient packages,
every man wants it; his wife wants
it, and his children want it, and there
is no other article of domestic use
that is of better quality. put up in
better shape, and more conveniently
than canned goods. But we do not
write this to puff there goods, but to
point a moral from which we hope
some good result may be gained.
This as follows: Fresh butter has
been sold in Paris the last winter at
7 to francs ($l.75 to $s2) the kilo-
gram z ii lbs). At home the best
quality of butter has been selling for
80 cents. How can our best qualities
of butter he made to reach such q
market? It needs to be of the first
quality, and packed in neat and con-
venient shape. Doubtless our enter
prising dairymen can hit upon IL
method that will suit this and other
openings. We might suggest small
tin cans similar to those in which
condensed milk is put up, and which
have loose cover over 4 sealed cover
of extra thin tin plate; or glass jars
in which the granular butter now
commonly made by the best dairy
men might be put up in brine: or the
butter might be>packed in the small
neat pals holding 5,6 or 10 lbs. But
here is an opening for inventive gen.
ius, and the reward to those who will
first enter and secure the lead will be
very satisfactory.

There is no other American product
that has taken so rapidly in the Eu.

time and the white man! Much has
been written of the far-famed Red
River Valley, with it's miles upon
miles of unbroken levelness, but when
the eastern editor shall see as we have
seen, the Valley of the Sheyenne, it's
name will share fully equal with that
of the Red River Valley, the attention
of the emmigrating millions. No
where, with more appropriateness,
could the name, Dakota Dells, be ap-
piled than to the beautiful hills and
dales of the Sheyenne Valley.

streamed from the thresher and filled

We have already made this article

Il farm which, though smaller than
some of the Dakota farms, is not
equaled in beauty or surpassed in eX-
cellence and thorough management,
by any of them. This year 500 acres
more have been broken, and next year
there will be 1900 acres in seed. We

Last Friday at 4:10, we boarded the
train at Wadena and were soon bowl
ing along under the conductorship Of
Capt. Spaulding. At about O'Clock,
p. m., us the train approached Lake
Park, the burly breakman, in a pecu"
liarly musical voice, called out, 500
minutes for supper. We accepted
the invitation and steered our hungry
physique into the spacious dining hall
of the Lake Park House, where, with
an competent corps Of assistants, Mrs.
Bemis was personally looking after
the comfort of guests. This is not
one of those proverbial ''hash' sta
tions. where one is no more than seat
ed at the table, when ''All aboard is

hungry traveller has is to grasp a piece
of hard tack and rush for the train,
but a house where full and ample
time is given OH the time card. to eat
good square meal, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Bemis always have it without fail.
Another feature about the place is,
you are not asked a fancy price for a
poor meal, but are only taxed so cents
for supper which could not be du-
plicated in a city restaurant for the
same money. We speak thus highly
of Mr.. and Mrs. Bemis and their coZy
hotel. because they deserve it, and do
not feel that an account Of our trip
would be complete without mention
ing them. This square meal was the
only thing of any Importance Ito us)
which transpired on the journey to
Valley City.
Suffice to say that we remained in
Fargo over night, and resumed our
journey Saturday morning in charge
of Conductor Comstock, that we
passed through the great Dalrymple
farm, of which 80 much has been writ
ten and said, that we consider it un-
necessary at this time to mention it
further than to say that it must be
seen to be appreciated; that the coun-
try generally through which we passed
bears evidence of life, ''push,' and
prosperity. At 1880, or thereabouts,
we alighted at the Valley City sta
tion and 'looked around.'' We dis
covered Valley City to be Il smart vii
lage, containing something over 800
people, and possessing more than the
ordinary attractions of the average
Dakota towns, nesting among it's sur
rounding bluffs, studded with green
trees and shrubbery, and the winding
Sheyenne meandering quietly in and
out, on the east side Of the town, i'm
presses one strongly with the charm

only awaiting the beautifying hand of |
art in planting trees, shrubbery, etc.,
to transform the naturally attractive
village into Il beautiful town. It was
not our object. however, to describe
