CURING FoDDER.-The chief draw
back with the fodder corn is the diff
Guilty of properly curing such a heavy
crop of Succulent green heritage.
When 1t is remembered that thirty tons
per acre has been reached, the problem
of curing is seen to be an important
one. The French system of ensilage
may in time come to the rescue and
provide a method OF preservation that
retains the fodder in its green state !;
but the introduction of such a system
must be slow, and until then the old
method of dry preservation must be
practiced. The putting together of
large quantities of half-cured stalks
must be abandoned, as it has been the
greatest source of loss to those who
have grown fodder corn. The NOW
should be thoroughly ventilated by
shafts passing up through its centre,
and when the fodder is put in stacks,
they sheuld he of small size, hOldi ~
but few tons, and, better still, pro-
vided with shaft, made of few
boards, in the middle.

VALUE OF SWAMP MUCK.--S )me time
ago we remarked that an acre o! swamp
muck of good quality, 3 feet deep, was
actually worth $25 900. No doubt such
a statement is surprising. SO was the
statement Of DR.. Lawes, of England.
that ton of bran, fed to cows, returned
more than its cost in manure. Swamp
muck free from sand, contains per
cent, or 40 lbs, OF nitrogen in a ton.
Nitrogen is worth in the market %
cents pound. So that ton of swamp
muck is actually worth $40 for the nj
trogen in it. All that il needed is to
work up the muck, so as to make the
nitrogen available. An acre of swamp
muck, 3 feet deep, contains $500 tons,
and would require s months to draw
out, at ~ loads day. Few persons
realize the value of the fertilizing ele-
ments of common waste matter which
lie under thei feet, and the innumer-
able tons of matter, that may be avail
able for fertllizjng purposes, and tha
much of the idle and neglected materi-
ais represent vast amount of wealth.

The Caldwell Commercial is lust

The Caldwell Commercial is just
now the happiest sheet in America.
In its issue Of the 25th ult., it pitch.
es into the Z. S. Government, the
War Department, the Interior De-
partment, and three newspapers, and
comes near annihilating the whole
outfit. Why shouldn't it feel hap
py over such achievements? The
further fact that this paper has been
lauguishing in almost hopeless de-
spondency for several months (hav-
ing located in the dominion of the
peaceful POST makes its condition
such, mentally and otherwise, that it
is capable of enjoying a general up
roar immensely. a home rumpus
is decidedly the best, but if that can
not be had, the Government, the
newspapers of the country and the
Indians must take the consequences.
But for the present, the triumph is
sufficient, and if the material holds
out, the editor of that paper will
continue to gently stroke his whis-
kers and warble, "Oh why shouldn't
the spirit of small fry be proud?"

Touching the question of the
rights of white men married to In
dian women, the following decision
of the L. s. Circuit Court, for the
Western District of Arkansas, May
term Of 1879, is important. The
case in question was one of jurisdic-
ton in the case of Il young half
blood Choctaw, the son Of a white
man by Choctaw woman, who, be-
ing brought to trial before the I. S.
Court at Fort Smith for murder, de-
MED the jurisdiction of the L. S.
Court, claiming that he was only
amenable before Nation court.
The presiding judge held that 'In
all cases where a white man married
to a Choctaw or Chickasaw woman
and had died before the adoption of
the treaty of 1866, he was a citizen
of the United States, because being
dead and not in existence at the
time of the adoption Of that treaty,
he could not throw off his allegiance
to the United States, and as the
child partakes of the political status
of the father, be is now what his IA
ther was at The time Of his death"
1t is claimed by the authorities
that the present status of the Chey-
enncs and Arapahoes is precisely
similar to that of the Choctaws and
Chickasaws prior to the adoption Of
the treaty Of 1866, and in this view
Of the case, the marriage OF a white
man to woman of either Of these
tribes, carries with it no rights other
than those possessed by him previ-
Gus to such marriage, because there
is no law of Congress, treaty stipu-
lations, or regulations affecting such
cases. Moreover, the children Of
such marriages have no rights other
than those possessed by their fathers
as citizens of the United States.
Accepting TINS theory as correct,
the inference is irresistible that the
claims for rights, contcnded for by
parties having Indian wives, by rea-
son Of being members of these tribes
by marriage, are fallacious, and that
neither they nor their children can
lay claim to property, nor to trade.
without first complying with exist
