]. W. CHRISTIAN l..

James W. Christian, whose death
on the l4th inst, was briefly noted last
week, was one of the pioneers of Allen
county, having located here in 1859.
Upon the breaking out Of the war he
enlisted in Co. H. 9th Kansas, and
was mustered in as 1st lieutenant. AZ
ter serving until August 1862, he re-
signed on account of disability. Re
turning home he located on the farm
where he has since lived and on which
he died. During all these years he
has held the respect and regard of the
entire community. He has been .
good neighbor and q valuable citizen.
Successful beyond the ordinary in his
farming operations, he has been q
liberal supporter of the public schools
and of the church with which he was
connected, and his wise counsel in::the
management Of these institutions no
less than his generous aid in maintain
ing them, will be sorely missed. In
his family relations his conduct was
exemplary, aud his home vas always
a pleasant place. He was particularly
anxious that his children should re-
ceive liberal education and no sacri.
flee on his part was too great, that af.
forded them an opportunity to obtain
it. In short in all the relations Of life
he conducted himself as becomes an
honest, kindly man, and his memory
will be cherished long after his mortal
remains shall have mouldered into
dust.
The deceased was a member of lola
Lodge A. F. aud A. NJ. and Of McCook
Post Il. A. R, and both of these or
CARNATIONS as we'll as q very large
concourse Of neighbors and friends, fol-
lowed the remains to the grave where
the solemn and impressive burial ser
vice Of the Masonic Order was read aud
the last rites performed.
May he rest in peace.

inches deep blowing. but I would call
it shallow. MY experience Is as follows
For fall blowing, pillow not less than
six inches deep, and as much deeper as
you please. In the spring plow not
deeper than four inches, and not much
less. I prefer fall blowing, As the sur
face Of the ground Is warmer than that
which has first been turned over And
the action of the frost and atmosphere
is as coed fertilizer as we haye.
