We failed to note the arrest and pun
ishment-$10 and costs-of the shoot
ist from Frontier county, last week.
The individual giving the assumed name
Of Jones, was an unerring shot with the
revolver, and after taking on board a
super-cargo of beverage of hell, he was
in superinduced mental and physical
condition which made the shooting into
private residences, snufliing of street
lamps, etc, very ordinary exploit. 1t
is a wonder that no one Was killed by
the FOOLS reckless shooting. A simple
fine is inadequate punishment for such
an ofense the endangering of an inno-
cent life-and nothing short Of impris
onment comes near recommending or
expiating for the crime. This high
handed outlawry should be tolerated
no more.

heap carries downward the soluble
parts as fast as the manure is decom-
posed. The jet black liquid which
hows off from the heap is the riches of
the farm, and as it passes away the
ready plant food which is dissolved in
1t is lost, leaving behind a mass of
matter, often supposed to be the most
valuable because of its bulk, but which
really is not worth the labor of hauling
to the fields. Unless the manure
therefore, be carefully preserved it will
be Valueless. 1t should be protected
from drenchiDg rains and the influence
OF the heat from the direct rays of the
sun. Plenty of absorbent material
should be added to absorb the volatile
material, and water is beneficial TO the
heap also, provided it does not drench
or flow of. The coarse material should
always be prepared by first being
passed through cutter, or made fine
IN some other manner, rather than by
spreading in the barnyard to be
trampled. 1t should also be worked
over once in while in order to prevent
iire-fanging. This may require add
tional labor, but the saving of the es
sential elements of the manure will be
more than compensation for the time
so expended. The principal rules to be
observed are to prevent loss by rains,
preservation of volatile matter with
moisture and absorbents, rendering the
manure fine, and endeavoring to have
It thoroughly decomposed- - Farm
