The Model Farm.

The Keota (Iowa) Eagle has at last
found western man who is satisfied
with a fifty-acre farm. His name is
Artemus Fisher, and he lives one mile
and half south of Keota. The Eagle
tells the story of his management and
of his success, as follows;
He keeps one team of horses, three
frst-class mich COWS, and a nice little
drove of the best hogs. He milks his
COWS for the creamery, and they made
him nearly 5000 last year; will perhaps
do better this year. He will sell $500
worth of hogs this year, and have thir,
ty stockers to keep over. He has 5000
worth of faxseed to sell has an abund.
ance of hay and grain to keep his stock
in first class condition during the win
ter. He keeps everything in apple
pie order about his farm; his cows revel
in clover up to their eyes; he attends
to feeding, watering, and milking as
regularly as the clock strikes, hence he
gets the best results with the least posi-.
BILE feed. He keeps his stock under
cover, and never allows any animal to
SILVER in the fence corners. He has a
barn that is model of convenience and
economy. 1t is snow proof and as warm
as the old kitchen. He has a first
class selection of fruit-not a large
orchard, but choice selection of the
varieties that thrive and bear the best
in this locality. Everything about the
farm bears marks of intelligence, thrift
and economy. Besides making living
for himself and the "Old lady," he will
sell at least $500 worth of stuff off hi
fifty acres this year, and not be exceed
ing former years either. There is NJ
rush or hurry about this model farm
Everything goes off quietly and regu
larly, The expenses are smalland tn,
gains sure.

Tennessee at Boston.

A correspondent of the Southern
Lumberman writing from the Boston
Exposition, has this to say of the
Tennessee exhibit:

Major McWhirter, your energetic Com.
missioner Of Agriculture, Statistics and
Mines, is, as | understand, solely emit
tied to the credit of making the exhib-
it. Everybody in this section must be
familiar with Tennessee marble, vet
many were not aware of the extent of
the variety until they examine the dis
play of marbles made by Messrs Beach
d Co., of Knoxville. A large frame
filled with blocks perhaps a foot squire
occupy a prominent position, and is a
very fine exhibit. A column of Ten
nessee granite some fifteen feet high
and ten inches square, with the four
sides finished in different ways-such
as polised, hammered, carved in design,
and rough, as cut from the quarry
gives one capital idea of this substan,
tial stone. There are also specimens Of
limestone, camel coal, and iron ore,
from the Big Creek Gap, East Tennes.
see. The Etna Coal Mines, as also
the Marion Coal Co., make display
of this indispensable product of the
earth. The display of cereals is very
fine and is arranged in very artistic
manner, and attracts great deal Of
attention. Not much effort has been
made toexhibit the lumber interest OF
the State, although some twenty-five
small samples are arranged around 8
pedestal, and to those who are inclined
to examine them, they reveal the fac
that the State is not without a wide
variety Of woods. New England lum
bermen know from experience tina
fine hard woods can be had from many
points in your State, and Boston CAPT
tai has for several years been located

men for supplies. Our interests ART

the other to market it. Industrial dis

The great lesson the people Of the

parties are h~opelessly controlled by the
corporation masters, and this, the last
trial asked for has been granted, our
trusts betrayed on every side. If the
declsions of the supreme court are to
be ignored, the constitution OF the

by a drunken mob Of law makers, the
state capitol turned Into q saloon,
maintained by the thieves and with
the money stolen from the tax payers,
aud common decsncy and honest faith
full representatives insulted and brow
beaten because they do not join In the

the people deserted the party of shan
p~ressions, and clean out the whole

ECONOMY.

There is n great deal OF complaint
about the cost Of living In Omaha,
and q correspondent writes to assert
that owing to exorbltant rents and
high prices Of provisions 1t Is impossi-
BILE to maintain q family 'decently''
on less than $4,000 q year. Now,
while It Is true that rents and provi.
sions are high In nj city, the state
ment of our correspondent Is dis
proved by the fact that there are hun
dreds Of families maintained comfort
ably and "decently" on less than half
the sum mentioned. There are scores
of cities In this country where the
cost of living Is just as high as 1t Is
in Omaha, and in which the proper
tion Of families who have $1,000 or
anything like that Is very small. And
yet, of this number q large majority
manage to live comfortably, If not lux
~uriously, and "decently, "iif not e1-
travagantly, by the exercise Of q care.
full domestic economy. Style, and
luxury, and comfort and responsibility
are four different things. We know Of
industrious mechanics In our city
whose little homes contain more real
comfort than the pretentious houses
of some others who are living fully up
to their incomes aud standing off the
grocer and butcher In order to keep
their carriages. The real difference
between the incomes Of q man earning
81 900 q year and one living on 3d. 0O
Is les 8 q difference of comfort than OF
luxury. And 1t often happens that the
balance Of real comfort is on the side
Of the family with the smaller income.
There are q host of proverbs about
the virtues of economy and prudence
but they are true II trite. The ability
to make ourself comfortable ona small
income Is almost as valuable as the
ability to secure q large income. "Be-
ware of little expenses" said poor
Richard, "a small leak will sink q
great ship"
A more thorough study of domestic
economy, In the majority of cases,
would more than counterbalance the
effect of high prices in a limited In.
come. Wastefulneus and extrava'
gance In dress often neceasltate a de.
crease In the meat and grocery bills.
The trouble with people of small
means who cannot make ends meet on
less than $4,000 a year Is that they
never gauge their style of living by
their income. The thousand COLA,
clerk often tries to ape the style Of
the banker whose income Is $40, 900 9

Let men and women who depend or
earnings from labor learn to live
within their means. Let them dis
pense with needless luxuries and reg
ulate their domestic wants according
to their circumstances.

REPUBLICANIsM IN NEBRASKA
A Candid View OF the roliticaI Situa,
ton.

Nebraska Signal, March 10th.
. For those republicans who have had
implicit faith In that party for twenty
years, who have learned to consider
the name a. synonymous with Justice,
honesty, progress and good govern
ment, who have stoutly commended
that the republican party was cable
and willing to accomplish all needed
reforms" the present condition of af-
fairs In Nebraska furnishes nothing
but encouragement.
The Signal as q representative of
this class has exerted Its powers to
the utmost to keep that party alive to
the interests and rights Of the people,
and to keep the people within that
party.
1t has pointed to the promises made
In the platforms of the party oopven.
tious during the past three years a.
evidence that there was no need to 90
outside the party to secure any reform
that was needed, and especially that
regulation of monopolies which the
constitution provides, equity allows,
and the people demand.
1t urged all republicans to attend
the and conventions last
summer, and to secure the nomination
and election of men who would re-
deem the promises made In the pom
ventions.
It pointed out the fact that a. the
republican party was, and must be foz
another term at least, the dominant
/. party, relief could only come through
that source, and o withdrawal of men
' of anti.monopoly principles from itl
conventions would only leave the
I nominations, and consequently the
q officers elected, under absolute contro'
of railroad politicians.
On the other hand, this paper ha,
urged upon the leaders and the off
= cials Of the party the Importance, mo-
only ~ an act of Justice but o. q party
measure, of Q faithful compliance witt
. Its promises and an earnest and dc
clded effort to accomplish somethin,
in the way Of needed railway legisla
n ton.
The results Of the convention an,
election demonstrated thesetwo things
o Enough anti-monopolists abstaine'
Q from the to leave the oonven
@ tion In the hands of the machine; aat
, enough republicans were driven from
the party, which had previously mum
Q bered two.thirds of the voters of tn,
State, to leave 1t In the pitiable posi-
y ton of having Its governor elected b.
: a plurality vote only, and Its candidat

This was the position when the leg
islature met, and 1t was this position
which forced the governor who wa
nominated and elected by ~railrca'
votes to plead In Ills inaugural address
for railroad legislation.
