WEATHER PREDICTION.

While we rarely see any one who will
admit that he puts any trust in wealth
er prophets, we have yet noticed that
nearly every one likes to read their
predictions; hence we quote the follow
ing from Prof. Blake's Future.
November will be stormy month,
though the storms will be mixed with
fair amount of pleasant fall weather.
There will be plenty Of rain in most
places, and excessive in some places,
with cold snaps and severe frosts.
While December may start in cold,
yet 1t will not last, as it will be warm
er than November till about the 10th,
when winter will set in in dead earnest
with blizzard. I do not, however
think this first blizzard will be quite
as severe a. that of January.
After about the 20thof December, 1886,
winter will continue with undated
and increasing fury till April, 1887.
But it does not necessarily follow that
each day will be colder than the pre-
ceding day. There will be several
mild spells with rain in the south, but
there will be nothing that could be
called a 'thaw' during the entire win
ter, after December 10th.
February will be colder than Janu-
airy. and while March will not be quite
30 cold as February, yet it will be a
cold, stormy month.
There will be considerable snow
with numerous severe snow blockades
In the North and much rain in the
South during winter.

that you owe rs is ours, and you ought
to pay 1t. We have accommodated
you by giving you credit when times
were hard with you; we hope that you
will return the courtesy, by making .

A CORRESPONDENT of the Lyndon
Journal gives the following recipes fol
keeping cider sweet which may be Of
interest to some of our fruit growing
readers:
First, To one barrel Of cider add
half q pound Of white mustard seed,
and half an ounce of oil Of sassaftas.
Second. To each barrel of cider add
two and half pounds Of rock candy,
and q half pound of rare beef steak.
In using either recipe let the cider
reach the stage of fermentation desired
before using the recipe, and keep the
air excluded as much as possible.

THE election last Tuesday made
clearer than it has ever before been
made in this county, the necessity Of q
law for the protection of the ballot box
from split tickets. At all, or nearly
all, the polling places in the county
there were tickets headed "Republi-
can Ticket" printed 30 as to resemble
As nearly as possible the regular re-
publican ticket but with the names Of
one or two or three democratic candi-
dates substituted for those of the re-
publican candidates. The tickets were
gotten up with the deliberate intention
Of deceiving voters, and there can be
no doubt that it did deceive enough of
them In this county to change the re-
suit In one instance and perhaps in
two instances. It is no answer to say
that the voter should read his ticket.
With twenty-five names on the ballot
it lie not singular that . great many
voters should not be familiar enough
with the names Of the candidates Of
their party to detect substitution and
should yet wish to vote straight
ticket. There is no excuse for it. The
issue Of such a.::ticket is prinsa Jdcie
evidence OF intentional deceit. There
can be no other design in issuing It
than to deceive . careless or ignorant
voter. That this IL true il shown by

We find the following eloquent trib-
ute to the young men Of Kansas, by
one of the brightest of them, Prof. w.
II. Carruth, Of the State University
in an address recently delivered before
the American Woman's Suffrage Az.
sociation:
I believe with others who have
spoken here that Kansas Is the most
promising field In the Union, and that
she will have the honor of being the
first state to make suffrage universal.
The old men of this state came out
here as young men to fight for freedom
land I done believe they meant that
black men had any better claim to
freedom than their own wives, who
helped them in the struggle. The
young men Of Kansas were born with
the spirit of freedom and the love of
equality and right In them, and
know that they are too fair and too
chivalr0us to deny their mothers any
right or privilege which they claim for
themselves. I had the honor to be
born at Osawatomie, and I believe I
know this state. They tell us
that we are uncouth and boorish, and
lack in culture. May be we are. Most
Of rs have had deal Of rough and tum-
BILE work to do, and that isn't particu-
larly conducive to culture. But, Sir
and Madame, the young men of Kan
sas have something that Is better than
culture-they have In their blood and
bone . scorn Of meanness and bullying
and cant, and respect for worth and
q love for fair play which I believe
may keep the state on the skirmish
line; as was the territory In '56. We
may be lacking in polish, but we have
material that will shine nightly when
1t Is rubbed up, and not all be worn
away in the process, please God.
