Cooling the Cellars.

A great mistake is sometimes made in
ventiating cellars and milk houses. The
object of ventilation is to keep the cellars
cool and dry, but this object often fails Of
being accomplished by common mistake,
and instead, the cellar is made both VAIN
and damp. A cool place should never be
ventilated, unless the air admitted is cooler
than the air within, or at least as cool as
that. or very little warmer The warmer
the air, the more moisture il holds IN sus-
pension. Necessarily, the cooler the air,the
more this moisture is condensed and pre-
cipitated When cool cellar is aired on a
warm DAY, the entering air being in motion
appears cool but as it fills the cellar, the
cooler air with which it becomes mixed chills
1t, the moisture is condensed, and dew is
deposited on the cold walls. and may often
be seen running down them in streams.
Then the cellar is damp, and soon becomes
moldy. To avoid this, tie windows should
only be opened at night. and ate-the last
thing before retiring There is no need to
fear that the night air is unhealthful-it Is
as pure as the air Of midday. and is really
drier. The cool air enters the apartment
during the night, and circula'es through it.
The windows should be closed before sunrise
in the morning, and kept closed and shaded
through the day. If the air Of cellar is
damp, II may be thoroughly dried by placing
in ], peck Of fresh lime in an open box.
\ peek Of lime viii absorb about seven
pounds, or more than three quarts of water,
and in this way cellar or milk-room may
soon be dried. even in the hottest weather.

II should not be forgotten that frequent
cultivation 0: the soil help. the growth Of
crops very much. Cultivation j, not for the
sole purpose Of killing weeds. but to break
up and loosen the surface OF the soil and en-
courage growth. In wet weather this caus-
es the ground to absorb the rain and in dry
weather it helps the soil to retain the moist
ure which it has accumulated. These two
facts are SO well known and have been so
thoroughly established by practice and Sci
eni.dc experiment that farmers need have no
doubt in regard 10 them. Moreover, the
cultivation should be deep at first and in the
middle Of the row should be shallow after
ward. and 50 worked as to keep the surface
as evel as possible.

It appears that the administration

OF the two Offices mentioned have been
doing that very thing in the most open
aud notorious manner, aud we will
illastrate il: 1t is well known that the
publication notices required 20 be made
in all eases Of final-proof on pre- emp.
ton claims must be published in some
newspaper situated near the lands;
these notices are paid for by the claim
ants, though published in such paper
as may be designated by the register of
the land Office. In Barber county alone,
hundreds Of these publications have
been made within the past year, and
not one has erer been giren 10 q democratic

RAISING RANoE Cattle

Mr.Atwater thinks the day of free
grazing in Texas Is about over. I'm d. Lee
rear future StOck-raisers will have 10
pasture their herbs on their own lands
and cultivate glound enough for fOd-
der to carry their cattle through the
winter.
The above is an extract from an asso-
ciated press telegram, dated st. Louis.
March Is, in which mention is made of
a tour through Texas by Mr.. A. +. At
water, secretary of the National Cattle
and Horse Growers Association. The
result Of the gentleman's observations
is In accord with the views expressed bv
the Live Stock Indicator ON the aues-
tion.' The tendency to take better care
Of range cattle during the winter months
is more apparent, year after year. but il
will require time for range cattle own
ers TO "break away" from the old man
ner Of doing business.
The Texas papers have commenced TO
speak out on the subject. The Albany.
Shackleford county, Texas, News, saws:
We hold, indeed, that in the end. this
years experience viii prove benefit to
Texas. Stock raising will be pursued
IN the near future on an entirely diff
ferent plan. More after the manner of
things M the east and north. StOckmen
Will have less stock and more feed: "A
better class Of stock and less free range.
They have learned that land grazed To
its full capacity i'm the summer. will
not sustain stock through a severe win
ter without feed. This winters losses
will not discourage any man who gives
IL thought and traces the effect back to
the cause, and indeed it should not, for
there is just rs much money 10 be made
in the stock business as ever there was.
IL is our firm belief that within the next
two years more money will be made out
of land and stock investments than ally
thing else in Texas. There is an old
adage which says that the time To buy
Is when prices are low, and those who
have the courage TO invest will double
their money.
And the Mobeetie, Texas, Panhandle
says:
Several OF our most extensive Panhan-
die ranchmen are preparing for the
planting of johnson grass, sorghum
millet and other forage crops on large
scale. IL it pays TO feed few cattle
it will pay TO feed them where they are
held by thousands at less proportionate
expense-and there's millions i'm IL. A
few of the ranchmen experimental in
this direction TO some extent last year.
AMI this winter have blessed the day
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1885-04-03

and wished the number of acres had
been multiplied by ut least ten. Our
Panhandle folks have awakened TO a
full appreciation of ''somtthing-a-cOna
ing and viii take the pillow by the
hons and conquer. II isNeIy SIMPLE
and easy ia this way to make a few dol
lars return many times the outlay in
saving stock. and the part of folly and
cruelty to neglect il. One Of our great
est syndicates is tickling tie bosom of
the Staked Pains this season, and will
put in johnson grass and small grain
and If natural conditions mean anything
the Great American Desert will smile
a bountifGl response.
Both Of the papers from which ex-
tracts have been made, are published in
the grazing regions of Texas, and there
fore know whereof they atfir N. 1t Is
useless for range cattle owners to frown
down flaming in that portion Of the
country which they imagine should be
kept for grazing exclusively. Farming
can and will be made valuable adjunct
TO the raising Of range cattle in the flu
ture, and those who appreciate that
fact the soonest, will realize the advan.
tages from financial point of view.-

COuch's cOlonists, or rather the Okla
homa boomers are yet cougregated
near Arkansas City, like Micawber,
waiting for something to turn up. The
president has forbidden them and all
'othCrs from invading the Territory,
and there appears no probability of the
order being withdrawn, and yet these
people hope they may get into the COW
cted land. General Hatch is there with
several hundred soldiers, and he will
enforce his orders and remove all in
truders.
1t begins to appear that these "boom-
ers" are not made of the right kind of
material, or they would not remain quiet
as long as they have. They have been
advised that there are thousands of
acres of vacant lands in Barber. Com
anche, Clark, Mead, Seward and Finney
counties, which they could occupy with
out mOlestation, and which they could
obtain at the same prices, and in the
same quantity that they can obtain Ok
lahoma lands; but they do not want to
come west. They arc burning daylight
now, and in few weeks it will be too
late for them to put in crops anywhere.
We have an idea that if the colony"
was thoroughly sifted that its compost
ton would turn out to be lot of lazy,
no-account persons anxious to reap with
out sowing, expecting something for
nothing. The same class Of people who
are noted for tire number of children
they starye and the dogs they support.
The same class Of people noted for loaf
ing around village stores when others
are working and becoming rich.

Druggists Permits.

Wichita Eagle: The druggists at
Topeka have returned to the probate
judge the statements received by them
10 date for medical, scientific and me
chanical purposes. They are paid the
fee OF five cents for filing each state
ment. The encouragement has given
no opinion upon the question. Mr.. Geo.
Peck says they will have TO pay it,.
Vance, formerly county attorney. of
Shawnee county, and chairman OF the
committee on temperance, says there is
no question as 10 the right of judges to
charge the sum of five cents for filing
each statement. The druggists at To-
peka made no objection to paying the
fee, We understand that our druggists
will make TO objections to paying it.
They certainly ought not to, as it will
make a large amount of extra work for
the probate judge, and it will work no
hardship to the druggists. Jewett says
it is all 4 mistake about it being the
good thing the papers claim for it. lie
has examined most of the druggists
records, and says he thinks that they
will all try and live up TO the law. He
says that there. is no evidence of any
epidemics, and that there don't appear
to be many chronic cases in the COM
munity. but that there are few cases
of general debility" evidently new
fellows that have not yet been accli-
mated -

pounds Of canned meats, and Tuesday
the Fairbank canning company received
orders for S,sOO,0OO pounds more. This.

can president is elected. There seems
TO be no law against this kind of a

Ine arrangements for the distribution
