Words of Cheer from an old Friend.
CHICAGO, ILL, June 20, 1881.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 20, 1881.
ED. FREEMAN Nothing succeeds
like success, and if | mistake not,
Judging from the cheerful, though
determined and aggressive spirit OF
the contributors as well as the edl-
tor of the FREEMAN, the cause OF
Temperance is on the ascending
scale, and it is but question OF
time when the hydra-headed mon
ster will have been subdued ana
cast out forever, no more to swell
the catalogue of crime or cast shad-
ows upon the hearthstones OF the
thousands of households Of our fair
land.
From every quarter the cry IS
"Onward," and chief among the en-
couraging evidences that it is a gen
uine work, is the fact, thatthe church
the Christian men and women OF
Americas waking up and coming
to the front. Catholic, Episcopal
Liam, Baptist, Presbyterian, Metho-
dist-all are putting on the armor
and arraying themselves for the
fight, and with the God of battles
for our leader, who can doubt the
result?
All along the line of the enemy
are evidences of weakening, as is
clearly shown by their monster
meetings, if not meetings of mon
sters," to devise means by which to
prolong the life of their king, and
fill their Golfers with ill-gotten
gains at the cost of the life and soul
and body of hundreds of thousands
of the flower of our country, and
bring misery and woe on untold
numbers of widows and orphans all
over our land.
Then again, politicians who have
heretofore found in the vender Of
intoxicants mighty ally, are be-
ing bewildered by the bold front
and onward strides of the Temper
ance army and are undecided where
to address their representation
good Lord or good d-l-and to my
mind there never was a better time
to force the fight than noao. So
let's give them the heavy end Of
the poker; educate the public
mind up to prohibition, and
with wholesome taoos and words Of
loUe we'll win them to the right and
the cause of humanity
Enclosed find one years subscrip-
ton for the FREEMAN and best
wishes Of your old friend for success.

Precautions Against DrOuth.

High manuring, thorough cultl-
walton, and the free use of vegeta-
bic matter like muck, are the best
of precautions for preventing, to a
considerable extent, the bad effects
of drouths. Messrs. Laws and Gil
bert, of England, in their expert
ments, found that heavily manur-
ed soils retained to the depth Of
thirty-six inches many tons more
water than adjoining lands not so
heavily MANFRED. And in expert
ments with the spade it was found
that where the soil was dug up to
the depth of eighteen inches, and
heavily MANFRED, the crops did
not suffer from drouth, although
the crops on adjoining plots were
all but dried up. Laws and Gil
bert also found that when the ma
nure was heavily applied, and
turned under to good depth, the
water did not go through to the
drains nearly SO rapidly as on land
not SO heavily MANFRED or so deep
ly cultivated In both cases, where
there was a large percentage of
vegetable matter in the soil it acted
as a sponge, retaining much of the
water which soils differently con
stituted allowed to pass through,
Drouths we cannot prevent, and it
behooves US to guard against their
injurious effects to the best of our
ability. To this end the land
should be MANFRED highly, cultiva-
ted as deeply as the depth Of the
soil will allow, and plenty of muck
Or vegetable matter in the form Of
green crops added to the soil-Leeo-

Vegetables for Home Use.

1t is an old saying chat shoema-
kers' wives and blacksmiths' horses
90 without Shoes" and it is equally
true that the table of the farmer
often shows lack of good vegeta-
bles. We have visited and known
farmers families where the only
vegetable in common use was the
potato, which was moderately used
with large quantities of pork, the
latter generally fried, though some
times boiled. We have been in
other families of farmers who even
though they were poor nevertheless
enjoyed an abundance of all the
vegetables, and not q few of the
fruits, including the strawberry.
If pork was used, it was boiled with
the cabbage only to season it. We
need not discuss pork here to any
extent as an article of food, for we
admit that it has its uses; but we
cannot admit that it is as healthful
food as are the vegetables that can
be so freely and cheaply grown. 1t
would seem strange that we need
talk to farmers about raising and
eating more vegetables when they
are the very persons who should and
do raise them. The farmers about
the large cities supply vegetables to
those who cannot raise them, and
this latter class do as a rule appre-
ciate them more fully than the pro-
ducers, even though they do not get
them in the same fresh condition
for their tables that the farmer
could have them for his own.
Thousands in the cities yearn for a
little land on which they may raise
crops of fruit and vegetables so that
they may have the products of the
soil in the best condition,

We are not in favor of any kind
of license system. Rum-selling
is either good or evil. Ifgood, then
it should have the same chance as
any other kinds of business. If
evil, the nation, State, county or
town has no right to license it.
When the State legalizes an evil,
its moral power is destroyed. When
it places its protecting power over
its worst enemy, the result will be
the degradation of the people and
death to the State. The only rem
edy is destruction of the evil, thus
elevating the people and preserv-
the State.-Bloom,sburg Journal.
