WHAT LAST SEASON TAUGHT. THAT
tomato plants in the same hill with
squashes, cucumbers and pumpkins will
not keep off the bugs. That an application
of air-slacked lime will not keep bugs
away from vines, cabbage plants, radishes,
turnips or egg plants. That saltpetre wa
ter will not accomplish anything in that
line. That coal-oil for that purpose is also
a failure. That good application, repeated
three times, of reasonably strong liquid
manure does well, and that an application
OF fine sulphur splinkled over the plants
will greatly help in getting rid of these
pests. That a reasonable application of
wood ashes is very beneficial in garden.
But that it is comparatively an easy mat
ter to make the application too strong, es-
pecially if the ashes are unleached. That
it is useless to plant sweet corn before the
ground gets warm as well as the weather,
as corn planted three weeks later will come
to maturity just as quick with the same
soil and cultivation. That there is very
decided advantage in good, sound, quick
terminating seed corn, and this will be ev-
ident from the time the corn begins to
sprout until it natures. That peas will
not do as well on new, rich ground as on
old. That 1 can raise more and better
Lima beans by planting in a row, the
plants six inches, than in hills with three
OF four beans in hill. That it pays to
soak sorghum seed twenty-four hours in
water before planting. That tomato vines
will grow faster and blossom quicker if
little manure is worked into the hills than
if set out without.

OIL FOR WAGON WHEELS.-A practical
man says:''I have wagon of which, six
years ago, the fellies shrank so that the
tires became loose. I gave it a good coat
OF hot oil, and every year since it has had
coat of oil or paint, sometimes both. The
tires are tight yet, and they have not been
set for eight OF nine years. Many farmers
think that as soon as wagon fellies begin
to shrink they must so at once to black
smith shop and get the tire set. Instead
of doing that which is often damage to
the wheels, causing them to dish, if they
will get some linseed oil and heat it boil
ing hot and give the fellies all the oil they
can take, it will fill them up their usual
size and tighten to keep them from shrink
ing. and also to keep out the water. If
you do not wish to go to the trouble of
mixing paint, you can heat the oil and tie
q rag to stick and swab them over as long
as they will take oil. A brush is more
convenient to use, but swab will answer
if you do not wish to buy brush. 1t is
quite saving OF time and money to look
after the woodwork of farm machinery
Alternate wetting and drying Injuries and
causes the best wood soon to decay and
lose it's strength unless kept well painted.
1t pays to keep a little Oil on hand to oil
fork handles, rakes, neck Jokes, whiffle-
trees, and any of the small tools on the
farm that are more OF less exposed.

MischieYous Malaria.

To say that malaria is mischieuoq.s is to
put it very mildly. It sail that and more.
1t is cunning, deceitful. treacherous, sly,
and underhanded. 1t does it's work in the
dark, and in such sly way that much of
the mischief is done before it is discovered.
1t saps the foundations of healthy sys-
tenn. 1t robs the blood of it's vitality, de-
moralizes the liver, confounds the stomach,
and makes the victim wish he were in his
grave. 1t is sad to see people sit down in
their misery, content to be the victims of
mischieyous malaria, and thinking that
nothing can be done for them. The power
of Browns IRON BITTERs over the mis-
chiefs OF malaria has been so amply proved
that there is no reason why anybody who
can procure a bottle of this Prince of
Tonics shall suffer. Great is the power
OF malaria, and great are it's disastrous eff
fects. But greater far is the benefcent
influence of BROWNS IRON BITTERs.
The preparation of iron in this favorite
family remedy can be taken without ruin
ing the teeth OF producing constipation
and headache.

The commissioner of internal revenue
has issued a circular stating that since
July 31st over two thousand packages of
stamps imprinted on checks have been re-
ceived for redemption and cancellation,
notwithstanding the circular of July 10th
last, informing the public that stamps i'm
printed on checks subsequent to July 31st,
1888, would not be cancelled after redemp.
tion and the checks returned to their own
ers. The circular says that the cases on
hand will be treated in. one of the follow
ing methods, according to the option of
the owner: l. Claims will be acted on as
soon as reached, and, if allowed, stamps
will be destroyed. 2. Stamps will be re-
turned to claimants free of charge, the
claims to be considered as withdrawn. 8.
Cases will be laid aside until congress con-
venes, and if an appropriation is made for
the purpose, the stamps if redeemed, will
be cancelled and the blanks returned to

town now delapidated and lethargic, but
then the seat of territorial government,
and dividing capital honors with Denver
till ''most mules and more whiskey'' car
| ried the day, land Denver usurped the place.
| In the fall of 1870, the Denver & Rio
Grande railway was incorporated. 1t is
impossible to consider the history of Col
orado apart from the road. 1t has en-
meshed the Rocky mountains with sys-
tenn which has fed the region with the
life-blood of emigration, supplies, progress
! and culture, from THE. arteries of the east.
Gen. Palmer, its CHIEF, with a. corps of
Jealous and able, assistants. spent some
time abroad in investigation of the mar
row gauge system, and for the Denver. &
Rio Grande a three-foot gauge was finally
decided upon, as best adapted to dizzy

ment and certain presumption claims

the Colorado Springs Company, organized
May Goth, 1871, whose members wereprin-
cipally Philadelphians. 1t was laid out
with the broad streets and regular. plan
which characterize it's mathematical
squares to this day, and tracts were set
apart for schools, churches, public build
ings and gardens. Lots were selected by
the colony members during four drawings
in sort Of land lottery, at stated inter-
walls, and others were sold for sums vary

character-of strict temperance habits. y
The manufacturing, giving away or
selling of Intoxicating liquors. was for
hidden in the title-deeds given. On the
9th of October, 1871, the first plucky little
train swept into Colorado Springs, three
months after the first town stake was
driven July 81, 1871 upon a piece of
ground now occupied by the Colorado
Springs hotel. From these facts it will
beiseen how Colorado Springs, in three re-
spects, differs from the ordinary far west
ern town. First, it was to be the resort
of persons of a high moral status, in lieu
of the riff-raff. the disreputable camp
followers, who straggle after the army of
pioneers. Secondly, it's prohibition clauses
were stringent, while the usual new
camp has it's saloon before it is fairly
surveyed, and stimulating and settlement
are apt to go hand in hand. Thirdly, it
was not compelled to wait in embryo for
months years till the railway came to
develop it, but was the creation of the
road and expanded as the latter grew.
Such have been important factors in the
unparalleled development of Colorado
Springs. M. V. d.

BRAN AND OIL CAKE FEED.-Experi-
ence in feeding stock in winter, especially
if closely stabbed, shows the value of oil
meal and bran as a rich, healthy and nu-
tritious food. A quart tof the ground oil
cake morning and evening, in bran OF
ground feed, fed dry OF in mush, gives a
desirable variety of feed that makes a
thrifty growth in all the stock. The oil
meal, ground from rich oil-cake, is becom-
ing popular feed for all kinds of stock,
cattle, horses, sheep and hogs. The Eu-
ropean stock farmers prize this oil-meal as
the richest and best stock feed to be had,
and they take all our surplus On this sub
jest the Stock Journal says "As rule,
combination of wheat, bran and oil-cake
meal will accomplish more in maintaining
a lot of closely stabbed breeding and grow
ing cattle stock in satisfactory condition
than any other two articles whatever. Oil
cake meal while having laxative tenden-
cy, if fed somewhat literally, nevertheless
is one of the best combinations with bran
when skillfully handled, as it's mucilege

ticles combined with good hay, take per-
