Sergeant-at- Arms of the House Lcedom
who was in charge OF the Holman lndiat
Committee, comes back TO the city with
various novel views OF the Indian rae,
Red Cloud he believes to be a loa'cr and
constitutional dead beat, who Is the only
one of all the chiefs the committee has
visited that steadily refuses to allow his
children to attend school and take on the
ways OF civilization. Red Cloui
tells his people that as long as the Great
Father knows that they are unable TO
support themselves they will be provided
vii rations, but II they become self
supporting they will receive no more
help When It was suggested to him
that his men should learn to farm he
said:
"Our farmer (thelr instructor In agri.
cullure) Is not OF the right kind. lie
comes here and wants us warriors to
work. What we want Is for the Great
Father to send US white men to plant
our corn, hoe II, reap 1t and pu. 1t In
barns, which they should build for u.s.
We are warriors and don't work. Squaws
work"
Mr.. Leedom says the committee has &
number OF reformssin Indian government
TO recommend. The general tenor OF
them all will be TO treat the Indians like
children and govern them accordingly; ;
to teach them to farm aud earn thcii
own living, but In the meantime to care
for them whenever they are unable to do
SO themselves.

THE VALUE OF TREES.

Why the Planting of Fruit and Timber
Trees Is to he Considered "a Profitable
Investment.
There can be little doubt that the
planting of fruit and other trees in
Kansas, that thirty or more years ago
was almost destitute of forests, has per-
ceptibly increased the rainfall there, and
will in time, perhaps, revolutionize the
climate Of that fertile State. We have
seen the statement made. on the author
ity Of the Governor of Kansas, that the
fruit trees which have been grown there
since 1850 exceed 10000, 900, and the
forest trees 200, 600 acres, many of which
have been artiicially planted. There
are places in Kansas and some other
prairie States where protection Of land
from fire will lead TO the springing up
spontaneously of forest growth but the
State Government of Kansas has wisely
encouraged the planting of forest trees
on large scale, and we presume that
the estimates made by the Governor are
based mainly on this artificial planting.
In any event it is a suggestive hint for
tHt OlutT ptatts WHICH, nave nttH ut-
nuded Of their virgin forests with gen.
orally very little regard for the value Of
the precious timber cut down and wan
tonly DESTROYED. that valuable trees may
be planted and grown in comparatively
few years on waste land of no value for
any other purpose. Walnut logs are
being sought all over the United States
for shipment to Scotland and other
foreign ports. Those may be grown as
easily as asilvcrpoplar in all this region.
We have helped relay fences within
fifteen miles of Cincinnati less than five
years ago with rails split from walnut
logs five feet in diameter, as shown by
the stumps not yet rotted from the ada
cent ground. There are farms now
within half a days ride from Cincinnati
that the walnut, hickory, oak, ash and
other lumber, which has been cut down
and burned up to get rid of within the
memory of persons living, would buy
thrice over il standing on them to-day.
These things are worth considering by
people having scrap of land otherwise
useless large enough to plant hundred
trees upon. Cincinnati Times.

WALKING HORSES.
A Gait which Should he Cultivated for tho
Benefit of Farmers.

Benefit of Farmers.
Fairs are called agricultural and me-
chanical fairs, and are supposed to be
largely in the interests of farmers. IL
is the farmers that provide the articles
that make up the shows, and It is they
who pay large part of the gate money
and make up the crowds. But is it not
true that horsemen play very import
ant part in the management and con-
troll of these fairs? The farmer is Ger.
tanly interested in the development and
improvement of the horse; but the I'M
provement he should seek to make is not
that which the average horseman en-
deavors to make. The latter is mainly
interested in getting horses to run, trot
or pace mile in the quickest time pos
sble. While 1t is well that speed i'll
these gaits be developed, yet they alto
gether are of less Importance in prac-
tical life than speed in walking. Inc
fast runner is needed only in cases Oh
distress or danger; the fast trottcr or
PAGER Is prominently a pleasure horsei
the fast walker is the horse for business
on the country roads, the city s'ree's
and the farm. A horse that will walk
mile inside of twelve minutes is OF more
practical value to farmer than one
that can trot mile in 2:40. The diner
ence between a slow and fast walking
team on farm makes the difference oc'
tween plowipg one and half acres IN
day or two; cultivating six acres OF corl
or eight; cutting ten acres OF grass =.
twelve; going to town five miles away III
one hour or taking two for it. But now
much pains do the fair associations tase
to develop this gait in horses by estao-
fishing walking races and giving pre,
miums? Ii the farmers would serNe
their own interests and make these ayr
cultural fairs Of more practical yainst'
they would discouutonance so mnpp
