Mr.. Sherwin has introduced o bill
in the house for the transfer Of the In
dian bureau TO the war department
If ever the time was ripe for such
transfer il is certainly the present time.
The people of the country have seen
how miserably managed the Indian
affairs of the country have been, and
how the grossest insults to the govern
ment have gone unpunished-nay even
rewarded, with the stamp Of heroism.
Hcongress viii be guided by justice
and common sense the transfer viii be
effected during the present session, and
it viii certainly be a browning act OF
glory for the democratic party if il
should be accomplished. Hypocritical
Indian lovers in the east whose knowl.
edge of the red man was gained from
the sloppy pages of Fenimore Coop
er's fantastical imaginings, r given
too much influence in matters that dc
not concern them. They know full
well that their ancestors conquered the
soil from the aborigines after many
| wars and massacres. They should
know that II hostile Indians were yet
towering near their homes there would
still be war. Yet knowing all this
they cannot suspend the sway of hypoc'
risy long enough to allow their judg-
ment to see that the people of the west
are situated much as their own ances-
tors were. They seem to act on the
principle that Indians are not as bad as
they were a few generations ago; that
when they fight It is a make believe:
bullets are simply boiled beans; their
knives are Of paper; and the Indians
don It mean any harm Mt all. These
peace policy slobberers are too far re.
moved from the scenes of strife to un'
derstand and appreciate the difficulties
encountered by the people Of, the west.
They do not comprehend how develop
menti is retarded, and they refuse the
testimony of the whites here, preferrine
to believe in the "untutor'd mind' of
| Poor 10.
The war department understands
these facts. Its officers and agents
have been educated in the field and
mountain fastness. Sentimental moon
shine has no place in their understand
ing. Realization is always stronger
and more certain than Imagination
The wal department has realized the
truth regarding Indians. The interior
department acts upon theory and imag'
nation. To people, then, who under.
stand the Indian character, there is nc
| question as to the justice and wisdom
of the proposed transfer.
In taking the position that the wal
department should have control of tn,
Indians, we reflect the sentiments Of
the entire ~peopleof the west. We also
stand on the very best judgment, an,
we are not alone, fortunately. Their
are thousands npon thousands Of thil
conviction. ALG QNA
Let the Indian bureau be transferred
to the "A department.

Gov. EMERY is hallucinated with
the idea that he will be one of the first
senators of the state of Utah that is to
be. AS Utah will have to be in a diff
erent state morally before she becomes
a state in the union, and as she shows
no signs of repentance, Gov. Emery
will have a good opportunity to demon
strate whether he has a Comstock lode
of patience or not.

Domestic Recipes.

MoLAsSES COOKIES. One cup of but
ter, two cups of molasses, one teaspoon
tut each of cloves and ginger. One half
cup of milk in which dissolve one tea
spoonful of soda, flour to make soft
dough, rolling out and cut in square
cakes; bake quickly.
CHOCOLATE Ice CREAM-Mix two
teaspoonfuls of cocoa in gill of cold
milk, stir it into pint of cream or
custard, add vanilla flavor and sweeten.
Scraped and sifted chocolate, so as to
bring it is fine powder, can be used;
but the cocoa is on all accounts best for
this cream.
APPLE PUDDING. Peel and core SIX
large apples, stew them up i'll six table
spoonfuls of water, with the rind of n
lemon; when soft beat them to pulp,
add six ounces of melted butter, the
same of sugar, six well-beaten eggs, half
gill of water aud teapspoonful of
lemon juice; line dish with puff paste,
and when baked, stick all over the top
thin chips of candied-citron and lemon
peel.
TAPIoCA PUDDING WITH APPLES. -
Soak one-quarter of pound of tapioca
in apint of milk or water till 1t is soft,
keeping it warm meantime. When it is
soft, beat together three eggs and four
ounces of sugar, and these with one
quart of milk, to the tapiocn. Peel and
core dozen apples, fill the cores with
sugar and stick bits of cinnamon in the
apples. Put the apples in pan and
pour the other ingredients over them and
bake till the apples are thoroughly done
CRISP GINGER SNAPS. One large cup
of butter and lard mixed, one cotfee-cup
of brown sugar, one cup of moasses, one
half cup of water, one tablespoonful
each of ginger and cinnamon, one tea
spoonful of cloves, one teaspoonful of
soda dissolved in half a cupful of hot
water, and -four to make the dough
quite stiff. Roll thin and bake quickly.
1t is a nice way, providing you can take
the time to cook The butter, sugar and
molasses together letting it get nearly
cool before using; this makes them crisp.
BAKED CABBAGE BALLS Stake n
large, firm cabbage, boil whole in salt
and water till tender enough to eat, but
not to fall to pieces; then lay in cold
wafer I'LL ready IOr use, OF untll perfectly
cold. Take the leaves from the stalk
without breaking them, lay three or four
together open ON the table until you
have dozen piles. Fry an onion and
chop fine with the remainder of the cab
bage leaves; season lightly with salt and
per, and mix in a pound of highly-sea-
soned sausage meat; make into balls and
lay them on your cabbage leaves; roll
the cabbage leaves around them and
tie firmly with a soft string; lay them in
a baking pan with half pint of stock or
gravy, and bake for 20 minutes in Z mod
erately hot oven

shorts az IL Fertilizer.

Sidney G.. Brooks, president Of the
Natick Farmers and Mechanics Associa-
ton, gives his experience in raising po-
tatoes with shorts as fertilizer. He
SAYS: "Several farmers in the spring of
1878 used shorts fertilizer TOR corn,
putting one pint in a hill, and met with
good success. l thought 1 would try it
for potatoes. planted about one-third
of an acre upon which potatoes had been
raised the previous year. The soil was
good planted potatoes in drill, APP
plying as many shorts as l could hold in
my hand, dropping about fifteen inches
apart, covering it with soil with my foot,
Upon it 1 dropped one piece of potato
with two eyes. This fail l dug sixty
three bushels of good-sized, smooth
! potatoes, with very few small ones. |
used SIX bags of shorts, costing $3.50. |
useino other fertilizer. used the shorts
dry, but think it would be better to wet
them, since they are apt to blow away.
Have had better success with shorts
than with any other fertilizer the past
season. How they will work another
year remains to be seen, as this has been
remarkable season for the potato. The
potatoes thus raised were very smooth,
and were of size much above the aver
age in this vicinity"

what Horses to Raise.

To those who are fond of stock of diff
fereot kinds, the breeding of thorough
bred stock offers pleasant as well as a
moderately profitable branch OF bust
ness, and one which is not likely to be
soon overdoue, for the simple reason that
il is still in its infancy in this country.
and the demand is not apt to be lessened
as the years roll on. Breeding horses,
as a business, requires considerable
more capital, as we'll as vast fund OF
experience, to be eminently successful,
and this is especially so in regard to the
trotting horse, more money having been
lost than made in attempting to breed
fast ones. More regular profit, rs well
as more satisfaction, will be realized in
breeding good roadsters and general pur-
pose horses, which can be sold, at a
profit, of from 5000 to $3.50 each, when
5 and years old. What is wanted is an
animal of 15a to 1G hands high, well
rumped up, with plenty of substance, a
well developed body and rather stout.
If they become fleet Of foot so much the
better, but if they do not show much
speed you are always sure of customer
at fair price, for such horses are wanted
for gentlemen's carriages and for bust
ness purposes.

animal can be fed too much as wen as
too little. The manure from tie horse
stable is kept separate from :ilat of the
COW stable, and carefully thrown into a
pile by itself. When the cattle are turn
ed into the yard in the middle of the day
they eat all of the litter on this heap, so
there is no waste from the horse stable.
The cows are all fed in the stable all
they will cat up clean, SO that there is
but little refuse, and what there is is
used for bedding the horses. Every
animal is fed in stable, aud never in
the yard. This is the daily round, aud
the way we make fodder go as far as pos
sible.-F ID. curtis, in Land and
