Adams, of Manhattan, sent down 200
head of three and four year old steers to
the farm of Jos. Fields where they will
be full fed the coming winter.

ers recently received 80 head of native

Holton Recorder: As there is consider
able talk of hog cholera in our country,
and great many of our farmers have
lost hogs by this disease, We clip few
remedies that are recommended by far
mers that have tried them and pro-
nounce them infallible.
Medicine Lodge Inder: D. F. Ship
man informs US that the large gray
wolves are killing q number of calves
on the range. This variety of wolves
are nearly large enough to draw down q

simply picnic.
Kansas Farmer: If any class of ami
mails on the farm ia worthy of the best
food that is produced it is undoubtedly
the horses. It is through their labor it
is produced and taken care of, and if
they are not entitled to the greater part
of it, they are surely worthy of the best
part.
Hog cholera has played havoc among
the swine of Sedgwick and adjoining
counties this season. A fortune is in
store for the one who can furnish a GER
tain preventative and a permanent cure
for this malady which seems 80 preva-
lent among the farmers and stockmen.
Kansas Farmer: Compute the inter.
est on the difference in the cost of ser
vice of good stallion and q poor one
for three years, and compare this with
young horse and a common one, and you
will see which it pays best TO patron

Kansas Farmer: A pound cf mutton
can be raised as cheaply as a pound of
beef or pork, and is worth equally as
much in the market, while the wool is
clear gain. Use thoroughbred males of
any of the popular breeds, and in few
years your sheep will be a source of
pride as wei as of profit.
Marion Record Mr.. Call, of Wilson
township, thinks he has solved the hog
cholera problem. He observed that the
disease is severest among well fed hogs,
fat, young pigs, etc., and so concluded
that the best preventative was less feed.
Let the animals fast awhile, he says,i
they show symptoms of sickness, and af-
terward keep them hungry, and they
will not have the cholera, he thinks.

A Dovel proposition is that of W.

In sixteen of the states there is no
provision OF law prescribing the form
and size of the ballot. In Florida and
Louisiana the prescription seems to be
that the ballots must be printed on
white paper. In North Carolina and
Oregon tac paper must be white and
without device. In Nevada nothing is
said about the color of the paper, but
the prescribed size is by 10 inches.
In Illinois it is provided tnat there
shall be 4 blank space below each
name. This requirement seems to be
distasteful, rs it is often observed only
in the most formal way. In Minneso-
ta the ballots in cities must be on white
paper, and of equal size. In South
Carolina the tickets must be white and
without device, and q by 5 inches in
dimensions. IN Vermont the law pre-
scrioes only the form of the words in
which the ballot shall be printed. In
Rhode Island the ballots are furnished
by the Secretary of State in self-seal-
ing envelopes of uniform size. OF all
the modes this is said to bo the best for
the prevention of frauds.

A Real Necessity.

We presume there is hardly a lady
to be found in our broad land who, if
she does not already possess sewing
machine, expects some day to become
the owner of one.
But after the mind has been fully
made up to purchase one of these in.
dispensable articles, the question
arises as to what kind Of a machine
to buy.
1t should be so simply constructed
that the most inexperienced can sue
cessfully operate it. The other
points mainly to be considered, and
which are the most desirable, are
durability, rapidity, capacity for
work, ease of operation, regularity of
motion, uniformity OF tension, and
silence while in operation.
The Light Running New Home
fills the above requirements, and is
said to combine the good points of
all sewing machines, with the addi.
tion of many new Improvements and
laborsaving devices.
The price is no higher than that OF
other machines. and every lady who
is the happy possessor of one may
rest assured she has indeed a treasure.
