Temperance in The West.

A correspondent writes to the Chi
cago Inter Oceaa: "one of the most
notable occurrences of the last half of
a decade, and one which must attract
strongly the regard and interest Of
every student of political and social
science is the manner in which the
temperance issue has forced itself in
to prominence in the West. In Kan
sas ii has laid hold on party and the
State. 1t is today the most promi.
nent and forcible issue in Nebraska
legislation; and will soon become the
dominat factor in Iowa politics. In
this latter State, especially, is there
cause to wonder at the sudden and
irresistible force with which this
temperance sentiment has laid hold
upon the politics of the State. The
leading politicians of Iowa fully ap-
preciate the immense importance
of this issue, which will soon square.
ly confront them, and the newspa-
pers of the State are already deep in
its discussion"
Something Of the same kind might
be said Of the South, in some parts Of
which the sensible people are awake
to the Importance Of having their
rights secured, in at least, by law.
1t is high time that every State
in the Union was employing all
its power, moral and legal, religious
and civil, stay the sale ofintoxicat.
ing liquors. The New York Herald
says editorially:
"The temperance question, in
whatever light regarded, is one Of
the most interesting and important
OF the many problems of the day
During the last eight or ten days our
columns have teemed with inter
views, addresses and correspondence
on the subject"
If such testimony comes from the
secular press, what should be the ac-
ton of the religions Press, the Pull
pit, the Church and society at
large. There is no one question
more deeply concerning the temporal
and the religious interests Of this
country.

What is a thoroughbred.

AS ordinarily applied by breeders,
the word thoroughbred" simply
means purely bred, or of unmixed
lineage; and in this strict sense none
OF our domesticated animals can Just.
ly be called thoroughbred, because
they all have u more or less COM
posite ancestry. When, however, u
certain strain or race has been bred
within itself, without out.crosses to
other or different strains, for many
generations, until marked and pc
culiar type is uniformly reproduced,
that race, or strain, or breed, is said
to be thoroughbred, or purely bred
The term thoroughbred was first APP
piled only to horses in Great Britain
bred especially for racing purpose,
and was adopted as the name of the
breeds, and is still used for that dis.
tinctive purpose. Consequently
when one speaks of a thoroughbred
horse, all intelligent horsemen un-
derstand that the raco.horse is meant.
No horses are recognized as thorough
breds in this country that do not
show an unbrokcn line of ancestry,
on both sides, to animals recorded in
the English Stud-Book. No intelli,
gent horsemau will speak of a
thoroughbred Morgan, thorough
bred trotter, or thoroughbred draft
horse, because, as before stated, the
term, when applied to horses, belongs
only to one particular breed, called

FOR THE FARMER.
Spring or Fan.

We have two or three inquiries
now before US as TO whether spring
or fall is the best time 10 get out trees.
We can't tell how often we have
treated on this subject, but it is nat.
ural that the question should con-
tinue to be asked, as young men
grow up, marry, and either go to
farming or in other ways possess
land, and desire information as to
what fruit trees 10 plant, and when
to plant them. In very few words
we would say that there is not much
choice in the seasons. If the soil is
naturally moist, spring is probably
to be preferred for setting-out; if dry,
fall. If the trees are large, early fall
should be chosen, and as soon as the
trees are done growing and the leaves
begin TO drop. In both cases the
trees should be taken out of the
ground carefully, and with as many
Of the small roots as possible, and be
planted as soon after as possible, be-
fore the roots become dry. To pre-
vent their becoming SO, they should
be well covered, kept out of the sun
in transporting, and "heeled.in" or
buried and literally waterod, as soon
as they arrive, until ready for plant.
ing. The planting cannot be done
too carefully. The hole should be
large enough to receive all the roots
carefully spread out, and the ground
put about them should be fine and
rich. If the roots are too big they
should be somewhat pruned, and the
branches of tho tree also. Some
times the branches, where the roots
are few and have been injured in
taking up, should be severely short
ened to save the life of the tree

Benin and Wagner, in the last edi-
ton of their book on the population
of the earth, estimate the entire pop
ulation of the inhabited globe at
1,456,00Oo0O persons. Europe, with.
out counting Iceland and Nova Fem
bla, is believed to have 315,929,O0O
inhabitants on an area of 176,2409
German square miles, or at the rate
of 1.79l persons to the German square
mile. Asia is put down as having
S34, 100000 inhabitants, on SO9,47S
square miles-that, 1881 persons to

205,679,S00 inhabitants, on 543, 1877
square miles, or SIS persons TO the

495,500 on 697, 1855 square miles, or
1877 to the square mile; Australasia as

A paper does not cost much
That is the reason why SO many
walk into an Office, help themselves
and walk out. To prevent this little
steal, it is veritably announced that
a shrewd editor trained u parrot
to watch visitors to the Office. Ifone
picked up paper and attempted to
go off without paying for it, the bird
would sing out, with startling clear
ness: "stop theft stop thief Hang
it, bring that paper back, or pay
for i'll" By this means the editor
receives nearly all the money for his
papers, which gives him quite lift.

what sIaAes q Good Newspaper.

The Louisville COURIER Journal has
the following sensible remarks about
conducting a newspaper: Some peo-
pie estimate the ability of a newspa-
per and the talent Of its editor by
the quantity of its original matter.
1t is comparatively an easy task for
a frothy writer to pour out daily a
column Of words upon any and all
subjects. His ideas may flow in one
weak, washy, everlasting food and
the command of his language may
enable him to string them together
like punches of onions, and yet his
paper may be meagre and poor con,
Germ. Indeed, the mere writing part
of editing paper is but a small por-
ton Of the work. The care, the time
employed in selecting, is far more
important, and the fact Of a good ed
itor is better shown by his selections
than anything else; and that, we
know, is half the battle. But, as we
have said, an editor ought to be es.
timated by his labor, understood and
appreciated, by the general conduct

consistent course, aims, manliness,

preserve these as they should be pre-
served is enough to occupy fully the
time and attention of any man. If
to-this be added the general super
vision of the newspaper establish
ment, which most editors have to en-
counter, the wonder is how they find
time to write at all.
