The provision made by congress at its last SEES
sion, for the expense of the commission which had
been appointed to enter upon negotiations with
the imperial government of China, on subjects of
great interest to the relations Of the two eoun-
tries enabled the commissioners to proceed at
once upon their mission. The imperial govern
ment was prepared to give prompt and respectful
attention to the matters brought under negotia-
ton, and the conferences proceeded with such
pidity and success that, on the 18th of November
last, two treaties were signed ut Pekin one relat-
try, and one relating to commerce. Mr.. Prescott,
one Of the commissioners is now on his way home
bringing the treaties and it is expected that they
win be received in season to be laid before the
senate early in January.

Tor their support. I'm the contrary, an increase
of the number Of such schools appears to me
highly advisable.
The past year has been unusually free from dis
turbances among the Indian tribes. An agree
ment has been made with the Utes. by which they
surrender their large reservation in Colorado ID
consideration Of an annuity to be paid to them,
and agree to settle in seyeraty certain lands
designated for that purpose, as farmers, holding
individual title to their land in fee-simpe inalien
able for certain period. In this way a costly
Indian war has been ay0i'led. which, at time
seemed imminent and for the first time in the his
tory of the country, an Indian nation has given
up its tribal existence 10 be settled in seyeralty
and to live individuals under the common pro-
lection Of the laws Of the country. The conduct
of the Indians throughout the country, during
the past year with but few noteworthy exceptions,
has been ordt rly and peaceful. The guerilla war
fare carried IN for two years by Victoria and his
band Of sou them Apaches, has virtually come 10
an end by te death Of that chief and most Of his
followers, Mexican soil. The disturbances
caused on our northern frontier by Sitting Bull
and his men who had taken refuge in the British
dominions, also likely to cease. large ma
jorty Of his followers have surrendered to our
military forces and the remainder are apparently
in progress of disintegration.
! concur With the secretary Of the interior in
expressing the earnest hope that congress will at
this session take favorable action on the bill pro-
vidiDg for the allotment Of lands the different
reservations in severalty to the Indians, with pat
ents comforting fee simple title jnaenable for a
certain period and the eventful disposition Of the
residue Of the reservations for general settlement
with the consent and for the benefit Of the IHdi-
eas placing the latter under the equal protection
of the laws Of the country. This measure, TO-
gether with vigorous prosecution Of our edr"a-
tional efforts will work the most important and
effective advance toward the solution Of the Indi
an problem, in preparing for the gradual merging
Of our Indian population in the great body OF
American citizenship.

POULTRY.

" Poultry is nuisance" says one. Says
another, g 1t doesn't pay !" And if we were
to enumerate the sayings against poor fowl
one might be persuaded to Danish it to the
most remote " corner of the globe How
ever, he has his friends and coadjutors who
will not let him be removed.
Well, poultry is a nuisance, if we let il
become such. If allowed to roam, to have
free range of door-yard, steps and porches,
it is q perfect nuisance. So, indeed, pigs,
thus allowed to run about house and door
yards, would be nuisance. Sheep, cattle
and horses all would prove to be nuisance
If allowed to live in the dooryard. but they
are generally assigned certain portion Of
the farm, and there they furnish a source
Of pleasure. Now, claim that poultry as
signed certain place on the farm would al
so prove to be pleasure, a source of delight
as well as profit. 1t needs but little extra
care after becoming acquainted with its
quarters. 1t will go home when night comes
without being driven, or even watched. AS
to not paying, l will show in time that il
does pay to keep poultry.

recently put on are exceedingly at
tractiye and unusually comfortable, it
being the evident intention to spare no
expense to hold the great volume of
business now turning toward the road.
No line In the world has more perfect
motive power than the B. & O., the
locomotives built at the company's
works being not only of vast power
bnt capable of exceeding speed. A
week or two since an engine on the
Chicago division ran sixty-three miles
in an hour and nine minutes. An inn
mense amount of new steel rail is
being laid, and all along the road are
large gangs of men working upon the
road-bed. The new transfer boat at
Locust Point, which carries the New
York trains of the B. s. 0. across the
bay, works to perfection. The trans
fer is made in five minutes, which is
not only a great saving of time over
the old way, but is greatly preferable
to the street transfer or the long ride
through the tunnel under Baltimore.
Nowhere on the line is the improve
ment more appreciated than in the
dining halls. Those in their bright,
new paint, new furniture, table ware
and such sort of things are very invit-
ing. The meals are in full keeping,
the food excellently cooked and nicely
served. The old B. & O. is indeed in
in popular favor and It's quite appar-
ent has no notion of losing it.

Nothing, in my estimation, excels the beau.
iy of a yard Of pure buff cochins. Their
great size and uniformity Of color, togeth.
err with their docile habits, make them o
very desirable variety.
Mr.. Kern, of Shimmersyille, Pa, thinks
there is no variety equal to the White crest
ed Black Polish, while another says the
" Black Spanish stands at the head as an
egg producing fowl" The Cochins may NOT
be as great layers as some, but for market
birds they carry off the palm. The Par
fridge Cochin becomes enormously large,
weighing sometimes eleven and twelve
pounds each. The Bramahs are good layers,
but great eaters. I think they are the great
est gluttOns of any have ever kept. They
are also very docile.
The creeper is unique-cutest of all vari-
cites. Its short legs and long body give it a
duck-like appearance, that, when running.
is quite laughable. The creepers are said
TO be great layers also, but as this is my first
season with them can not give the facts of
the case.
The Leghorn varieties are good and thu
Plymouth Rocks are very popular at present.
In fact, | think all are good to those who
like and appreciate poultry, and those who
do not will not succeed with any variety In
my next article l will attempt to show by
facts and figures that it pays to keep poul-
try. A PoULTERER.

KENOSRA COUNTY FARMERS so
CTETY.

II ENOSHA COUNI1 FAHM EMS 81
GETTY
This society held meeting in Salem on
Thursday of last week, in the Congregational
church. The attendance was small The
muddy state of the roads, the threatening
aspect of the weather and the apathy of
some were the causes that prevented larger
attendance. At 11.30 A. M. the meeting was
called to order by the President. A. s. Bar
Der, Esq. Hon. W. D. Hoard then gave an
extended and interesting talk on how the
farmer can best meet the difficulty of long
and consequently expensive transportation
to distant markets. The ideas advanced
were pertinent and suggestive, and were lis
tened to with great interest.
At the close the audience adjourned to the
auditorium Of the church, SO that the ladies
could have the basement to set and serve the
dinner in. While the preparations were be-
ing made for dinner, D. A. Mahoney, Coun-
ty Supt of Schools, read paper on the ne
cessity and practicability of establishing
High Schools in each town Of the county in
which the citizens desired them. Mr.. Ma
honey's treatment of the question was COM
mon sense, practical and thorough. Consid-
cradle discussion, pro and con, followed the
reading of the paper. AT the close the au-
dience adjourned for dinner
The ladies of Salem again proved their lib
erality and kindliness in meeting the needs
of the society by On abundant provision of
good things wherewith to refresh the inner
man. Our prayer is that heavens choicest
blessings may always rest on those who
ministered on this occasion.
After dinner the audience were again call
ed to order and Mr.. Hoard gave his inter-
esting and instructive lecture. "Want and
Work" which appeared to be received by the
audience with great pleasure and satisfaction.
Mr.. F. W. Lyman, of Kenosha, followed
with paper on " How o protective tariff af-
fects the farmer" which was well received.
Taken altogether, the meeting was q sue
cess. What it lacked in numbers it made up
in OVERLOOKING good feeling and enthusiasm.
The only thing to be regretted is that there
were not present larger number of Kenosha
county farmers and their families to feast
their hearts and minds on the good things
provided. The sole ject of the members OF
the society is to benefit others, and be bene-
flied themselves, by an interchange of opin-
ion, mental recreation and social intercourse.
The next meeting of the society will be held
| in October at Bristol Station.
Miss Kelly, q guest of Capt. Tuttles, made
shorthand report of Mr.. Hoard's talk on
the transportation question, and it is hoped
will give ut least synopsis for publication in
our home papers.

Life Of General James A. Garfield

The well known publishing house of Hpbbard
Bros, Chicago, have in preparation, and will
soon issue, the life of General james A. Garfield,
written by his comrade in arms and personal
friend, General j. 8. Brisbin, of the regular
army. The career of our distinguished candi-
date has rarely been equaled in points Of roman
tic interest, and the more closely it is studied
the more wonderful and inspiring it appears. It
furnishes materiel for a volume o. deep and per-
manent interest and value. We are glad that
its preparation has been placed in hands SO
competent. The brilliant qualities of, General
Brisbin. both as soldier aad an author; are
well known, and his personal relations to Gener.
al Garfield are such as will give to his narrative
the utmost tullness and authority of statement
1t will be book of more than passing interest.
and in this respect widely different from erdi-
nary campaign literature. 1t will be sold only
by egbseription. and must meet with very
fargo SAFE. 81
