A REMEDY FOR THE DRoUTH.

The Sterling Gazette proposes a plan
which seems sen.ible, practicable and mex
pensive. Ii says
There is abundance of water at short
distance below the surface. The wind is
willing to work 70: nothing and to raise to
the surface an Unlimited amount of it. II
remains for the ingenuity and skill of man
TO harness the wind to the work and to ap-
ply the water judiciously TO the soil. Some
say this will be impracticable and expen-
give. Expensive it may be, but it is not
impracticable. In Holland they have emp
tied lakes and even Sea in order to Guilt
vste the coil at their bottom. Constant vigil
ance is necessary to keep the water out; yet
sill lie done at profit. Less expensive will
it be to irrigate the plains Of Kansas, than
to dry the lakes and seas Of Holland. The
lakes Of Holland were no: dried in day,
neither will the Arkansas Valley be irriga-
ted in day, but by preparation beforehand
and the accumulation of a supply Of water
on the surface to be in constant readiness
when needed, the long dry spells will be de-
prived of their power to ruin the prosperity
Of the country.
How is this to be done? We should say
select the highes, point on the land sought
to be waiered; with pillow and scraper make
a heavy dirt wall around large basin; keep
it wet with q windmill and water elevator;
feed your hogs in this pen for few weeks
and let them wallow the entire surface so as
to make il hold water; plant cottonwood
cuttings all over the dirt wall, then let your
wind mills devote the winter and spring to
filling up this basin. By the time the water
is needed for the crops in the spring the wa
ter will be warm and fit to apply. As these
supplies Of surface water are increased a
greater amount of moisture will be found to
exist a, all times in the air.

THETEXAs STOCKMEN's FAvURITE
AGAIN TO THE FRONT.


As promised a year ago the Atchi.on,
Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad has been
extended into New Mexico, and has besides
made extensions south from Wichita toward
the Indian Territory, the prime object being
the better accommodation of the growing live
stock trade. Owing to the location of the
"Kansas Dead Line" just east Of Dodge
City, the Aicbison, Topeka and Santa Fe
Railroad last year transported the great bulk
of the Texas cattle of last years 'drive"
which came to this market. This year that
road has better facilities than ever, by reason
of their extensions south to Caldwell and
Arkansas City, Kas., on the line of the
Indian Territory, thereby giving the
shippers the choice of three points, all
outside of the "Dead Line" Dodge City lie
perhaps the mos. available shipping point,
inasmuch as there are limitless graz ng
grounds west, to be had for nothing, while
those who are ready to ship al once may
find it convenient to drive to Caldwell or
Arkansas City. The law in relation to the
"Dead Line" is unchanged from last year,
and prohibits the driving Of Texas cattle
east of the "Dead Line" until November
LIST, SO that the most available shipping
points for these cattle are Dodge City, west
of the "Dead Line" and Caldwell and Ar
kansas City, on the line of the Indian Teri
itory.
The Atchison, Topeka & Ssnta Fe Rail-
road have largely increased their facilities
for the rapid and safe shipment OF live stock
and as droyers we'll know, the officers Of the
road spare no pains 10 give the most entire
satisfaction to Shipper. The stock yards at
Dodge City are commodious and N excell-
eni condition, and under the supervision Of
an experienced gentleman who il well and
favorably known throughout Texas. Msjor
H. NJ. Falls, the live stock agent of the
road, will spare no pains to assist shippers,
and hopes to meet all the old patrons of the
prosperous and reliable Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe Railroad. - K. C. Commercial

GEN. GRANT is not without hope for the
future of Mexico. He gees in it elements of
prosperity which may be aroused into ac-
tion, and he believes the extension Of our
railroad system into the country will bring
about such result. He thinks if the
country were pierced by few railroads, the
people would eagerly avail themselves of
the opportunity to produce something for
export. The opinion of such an observer
is worth a great deal. As our railroad sys-
TEN is now approaching the Mexican from
tier, the capacity OF the Mexican people to
play their part in the industrial performance
Of the age will soon be put to the teet.
There is no doubt, as Gen. Grant says, but
what the country is capable of supplying us
with all the semi tropical products which we
reed, on much more advantageous terms
than We now procure them. Undoubtedly,
the next few years will place Mex co in easy
communication with the best market in the
world for the great staples which it is capa-
BILE of producing in abundance, and it re-
msins to be seen whether its people will have
the nj cessary industry to enable both them
and ourselves to profit by their advantages.
The benefits to this country of a commerce
with Mexico such as that country is capable
Of sustaining can hardly be overestimated.
Gen. Grant believes the people will develop
their resources if the locomotive lie sent
among them-slowly at first, but extensive
ly in the end.

A greater number OF emigrants came to
this country in the April past than during
any other month since the world began. In
April, 1872, the arrival of $4,000 intending
settlers was recorded, and until this year that
figure had never been passed. But last
month no fewer than 46, lis persons landed
a, Castle Garden, $4,000 of whom arrived
within the LAST days. 1t is expected that in
May even these figures will be overtopped.

The Silver Cliff Prospect wisely remarks:
"That immigration to Colorado is unpreced.
ented. The two great railroad arteries that
feed Denver and Pueblo have had to double
their former facilities, and yet the demand
Is not met. In addition TO these immense
streams there is an almost unbroken line Of
wagons reaching from the borders Of Miss
ouri and Texas far into the mountains. In
this latter class We regret TO find 80 many
entirely ignorant Of the country into which
they have brought their families. With
barely means enough to defray their e1pen.
SEES to the nearest mining camp, without the
eighties. idea of mining, or in fact any work
to be done in the mines or new towns, this
class must necessarily suffer for the
necessaries of life, and finally. re-
turn to their former homes sadly disapp.
ointed and fall Of curses for the grandest
and richest mineral country in the world.
1t is the duty of the press of Colorado to
discourage this class from leaving their
homes and agricultural pursuits to embark
in new and entirely different clsss of labor
The mining districts of our picturesque and
ealth-giving want immigrants, but want
men OF intelligence ard means sufficient to
develop our mineral resources"

TIE RAILROADS AMI BEArrY.-The Silver
State has the following regarding the nomina-
ton of Judge Beatty:
The Carson Tribune, which is so intoler-
antly partisan, or intensely loyal, that 1t in
Inmates that the APPEAL is q rebel sheet, be-
cause its remarks on Sharon's candidacy for
re, election to the Senate we're copied by the
Silver State without comment, says Of Judge
Bsatty's nomination.:
Tho talk about the railroad fighting Beatty
was all bosh. Wsshoe, Exc, Humboldt,
Lyon and Ormsby, railroad counties, all sup
ported him, and A. C. Cleveland, the rscog-
nised lobbyist Of the c. P. R. R., gave him
ON the final ballot the votes that nominated
him. The shoe was placed on the wrong
foot"
This implies that Judge Beatty is the corpo-
ration candidate, and IS the charge ia made in
\ paper which claims to be intensely Repub-
lican, We should like to hear from other pa.
psrs, of the TribWne's political persuasion, on
the subject. Judge Beatty's opinions, on
questions affecting the corporations, have
given satisfaction to the people, and if the
railroad and bonanza compan MES have, as the
Tribune lntimates, made terms with him, it
will be news to good many.
1t is a pretty difficult matter to toll how the
corporations stand regarding Beatty. The
APPEAL is certain, for reasons already emu.
merated, that the c. P. R. R. Company have
no opposition to make to Beattys reelection.
1t is hard to tell, as it always is. how the V.
& T. men stand. regarding Beatty. We
would be glad to feel that their professed
friendship for Beatty was sincere, but doubt
it. The people of Ormsby know just what

The Lay Water Motor.

We briefly noticed this invention, pa
tented by a citizen of our county, in a
previous issue of the Courier. Since that
time Mr.. Lay has exhibited his motor to
a competent civil and hydraulic engineer
who not only is highly pleased with it,
but proposes to aid in its introduction
and application to machinery. Wewill
now try to give more full account of
this remarkable invention, which, if it
answers in practical application the pur-
pose and expectations of the inventor,
will revolutionize the whole system DIVA
ter motors, and render available and use
full water powers heretofore impractical
BILE for want of sufficient fall. The ma
chine is of very simple construction, and
appears to be no more liable to get out of
repair than any ordinary wheel. The
inventor also claims that he can secure
by it greater available power for NOV
ing machinery from the same quantity of
water than can be had from any wheel,
and that his machines can be successful
ly operated under any fall exceeding
three feet. BY this means persons using
his motors can obviate the necessity for
high natural falls and the heavy expense
in constructing dams, races and flames
and keeping them in repair. In the
same way large bodies of valuable bot
tom lands can be saved for cultivation,
which are, under the old system rendered
worthless, by either being sobbed or
covered with water, and at the same time
the health of the country, often rendered
bad by ponds and decaying vegetable
matter, be preserved. The machines arc
said to be capable Of running any kind
of machinery, whether it be heavy or
light, from the sewing machine and
c6urn to the heaviest rolling mill, they
being supplied with an apparatus by
means of which perfect control can be
had over them as to the power, speed and
direction of motion. Mr.. Lay has Sc
cured his invention by two United States
patents, obtained through the agency Of
Messrs. Mum & Co., of the Scientific
american, one allowed September %,
1879 and the other January s, 1880,
covering the entire machine, and he
proposes to commence introducing them
at once. We hope that the invention
will prove all that Mr.. Lay expects as
well on account of its cheapness and
simplicity rs its likelihood of opening
out when introduced much valuable land
now worthless for cultivation by reason
of the large ponds often required to Sc
cure the necessary fall and power for
machinery IKaihaNa Courier.

THE STATE GRANGE.

The meeting last week of tho State
Grange of South Carolina, in Charleston,
was we'll attended, and every part of the
State represented. The delegates were
most cordially received, and by special
invitation enjoyed one of Charleston's
most enjoyable excursions on the bay.
The Oranges of the State are composed
of the most energetic and prudent and
wisest citizens Of the State. In their
meetings all sectional and party measures
are excluded, and only matters connected
with the advancement of industrial and
educational interests are considered.
They have already accomplished much
towards the object of their organization,
and are still ready to lend the aid of their
organization for the development of the
material interests of the State. The in
PRODUCTION of the following resolutions
into the State Grange shows that the
farmers of the State are awake to the i'm
portance of direct connection by rail-
way with the West by means Of the Blue
Ridge Railroad:
Bro. Roche offered the following reso-
lutions, which were referred to the Com
mittee on Resolutions:
Resolued, That the State Grange of
South Carolina has seen with great in
terest the revival of the project by which
the State of South Carolina and the
Great West can be connected in the con-
struction of the Blue Ridge Railroad.
That the Grange recognizes the great
advantages which must follow the con-
struction of this road to all the farmers
and citizens of the State, securing, as it
does, direct and easy communication With
so large body of our best customers.
That any action of the General Assem-
bly, looking towards aid to this project,
with proper care for the protection of the
interests of the State, will meet the
hearty support and cooperation of this
Grange.
That the Worthy Master of the State
Grange be requested to present to the
General Assembly at its next session a
copy of these resolutions.
