Mr.. W. L. Jackson returned from
a trip down South, on Tuesday last.
aud will soon resume his duties as
Under Sheriff He has heretofore
filled the position to the satisfaction
of aII.-Central'a Enterprise.
The above is untrue IN two partieu-
lars and we believe the editor knew it
when he wrote the item. Jackson
will not resume the duties of Under
Sheriff and he has not heretofore fill
ed the position to the satisfaction OF
all" 1t is impossible for a man fol-
lowing the business that he does to
give general satisfaction in anything.
Inc large amount of sheriff work
done by the city Marshal Compton of
TINS city, Is fitting rebuke to such
talseheods. SO much for the truth.

The annual report of the Board of
Immigration is at hand, and though
brief it makes very creditable show
ing. The disbursements for the year
1881 amounted to IS. 514 II leaving
in the hands Of the Secretary $50. SO
and in the state treasury to the credit
Of the board SASS 81. The number of
immigrants who have made Wisconsin
their home during the last three years
are as follows: 1879 Is, $50; 1880
SO, 83S: 1881 1896. The larger
portion were from Germany and most
of them were of the better class Of
farmers and mechanics. The board is
doing valuable service III the line of
advertising the advantages of the
state by sending out maps, pamphlets
and publishing advertisements in news
papers in the various countries of the
old world. A review in leading
trade journal of Germany states the
case as follows:
1.-The emigrants this year are, with
out exception, Of the best agricultural
and industrial classes, taking money
with them, the savings Of years.
Germany has never before lost such
numbers Of worthy and industrious
people as are this year emigrating to
the United States, and the loss to the
German Empire can scarcely be over
estimated" s'In conclusion, we can
not refrain from pointing to another
very important fact, which is of great
direct significance, especially for Ger
many. The number of emigrants
landed in the United States in the
year 1878 was 153.2O7; in the fol-
lowing year the number rose to $780,
SOS, and in 1880 it reached the en-
ormous figure of 586,068! According
to other statistics, the average annual
earnings Of a workman amonnt to
$625, and one may safely persume
that every able-bodied workman con-
tributes every year one-ffth of his
earnings to the increase of the national
wealth. Taking into consideration
the period of time of the full working
capacity Of emigrants, according to
their age, and considering the much
less working capacity of the females,
and the cost of raising the children
which they bring with them, one may
fairly presume that, during the last
few years, not only considerable cash
capital has been taken to the United
States by the emigrants. but that
every one of them carries to that
country, in his labor, capital which
may be estimated at $1,000. The
total value of the labor thus conveyed
to the United States during the last
five years. may therefore be estimated
at about $700,000,000. No wonder
that the Uuited States of America

Mr.. and Mrs. Vroom Talmadge re-
turned to their home in this city last
Friday, after and absence of several
months in Omaha, where Mr.. Tai
madge has been engaged in erecting a
large elevator for the Chicago Eleva-
tor Company. Last May when he
packed his "grip-sack" he expected
to 90 to South Carolina but received
orders shortly afterwards to 60 to
Omaha, since which time he has been
engaged there. Their eldest son
Frank, was also employed on the build
ing and Judging from the following ia
ken from the Omaha Daily Bee of
Jan. 10, his services were highly APP
preciated. Read it
PLACED A WATCH ON HIM.
The new Union elevator has been
the scene Of many agreeable surprises
Of late. Yesterday the foreman of
the millwrights, Mr.. Frank Talmadge,
who will depart for the east to-day was
startled to see large group of men in
silent consultation, and was asked to
step into the ring, when Mr. w. R.
Stephens advanced and addressed him
as follows
Mr.. TALMADGE On behalf of
your friends and admirers it becomes
my pleasant duty to express in a few
words the high appreciation in which
we have held you during the past sea-
son it became our good fortune to work
under your instruction. We recognize
in you a competent and finished work
man and refined gentleman, and as a
small token Of our regard for you we
ask you to accept this watch. and with
it our heartfelt thanks for your kind
ness to us, and our best wishes for
your future success and now that
you are about to leave us, in wishing
you God speed, the hardest words we
have to speak, are good bye"
The watch is a valuable, heavy sill
yer hunting case one, and bears on the
interior of the case the following in
scription i: ''Presented to Mr.. Frank
Talmadge by the Mechanics of the
Union Elevator, Omaha, Neb." Mr..
Talmadge replied with much feeling,
and set up the cigars for the boys
forthwith.

Pasture TOR Hogs.

Farmers in the great reproducing sections
of this country are paying more attehtion 10
pasture for hogs now than heretofore. Ohe
who has given the subject no little study, ana
tried various experiments IN that behalf, says
that there is no question about green oats and
peas being most appropriate food for pigs,
and that 1t comes at the very season when
pasture is apt to be short Corn being the al
most universal fattening food for hogs in the
West after cold weather arrives IL Is very i'm
portant that the summer food for pigs should
be more heterogeneous and better adapted to the
development of muscle and bone than corn.
The pea Is very rich IN muscle and bone
building elements, and oats are also superior
to corn in this respect The oats, also, assist
IN holding up the pea vine, so as TO prevent
early lodging and thus cause It to retain its
succulence longer. The crop should be sown
in the proportion Of two bushels OF
peas and one of oats per acre, ana well
covered. The drill puts them In best, The
united crop should produce from forty TO
sixty bushels of grain to the acre. Now the
grain is only part of the crop. The succuien'
pea vine Is admirable food for pigs, and they
should be turned in when the pea is just pass
Ing out of the milk. They will then devour
the whole plant, and 1t contains as much
nutriment as when fully ripe. The succulens
stalk contains from forty to fifty per cent as
much nutriment as the grain good crop
ought to produce a growth in live weight ON
hogs OF 500 to 700 pounds per acre.-Pralrte
Farmer.
