No.Man's. Land.

A strip Of land bordering on Kansas
Is known as No-Man's.Land. CLARK
County, Kan, borders On the strip in
question, and Is the fourth county from
the southwestern corner of the State.
The metropolis OF No.Alan's-Land is
Beaver City, q town oil about 400 people,
situated In the central portion OF the
strip Perhaps for its size Beaver City
has the ronghest population OF any city
in the world. twill be remembered that
No.Man's- Land Is q country entiyely
without government. II has for some
unexplainable reason been left without
the jurisdiction Of any court in the
United States, and no process, either
State or Federal, can be served legally in
this strange country. As consequence
ii has for years past been the refnge for
the most dangerous criminals OF the
great Southwest. Horse thieves, rnur-
dsrefs, and other criminals have fled
there in order TO get beyond the pale of
the law. Whar Canada isto the default
ing tank cashiers OF New York city, No.
Mans Land is to the murderers,
thieves and out-throats of the South.
west. In the light OF these facts II Is
not to be wondered at that the present
population of Beaver City il composed
largely Of the roughest class. Beaver
City has a provisional government. By
common consent Of the citizens almost
absolute power is vested in one man, who
governs the city with q rod OF iron. II
ANY Of the gamblers OF thugs beccine
unusually dangerous, or If they have
committed any act Of violence which
does not meet with the approval OF the
mighty potentate, the man Is shot. A
coroner's jury perhaps views the remains,
and returns verdict 20 the effect that
the deceased was killed as public ne
cessity. Some time ago Assistant
United states Attorney Eugene Hasan
addressed communication 70 Attorney
General Garland. complaining Of the ST
nation OF affairs in No~alan's-Land.
These complaints have been forwarded
10 the United States District Attorneys
Office, and on the strength Of said com.
plants, Mr.. Hsgan addressed an official
letter, calling the attention Of the Attor'
ney General Of the United States to the
situation. No reply has yet been re.
ceiyed, but IL Is very probable that Mr..
Garland can take no action in the cass
j; without the consent Of Congress. -Boa0N

Labels and Records.

During the latter part Of autumn, as
well as in the spring. trees and plants
have been set out. and need stakes and
labels to preserve their names and places.
II they are TO remain for years, they
should also be registered in IN account
book. Small wooden labels and stakes
are often used, and If the names are
written with pencil on thin coating
Of white paint, they will usually remain
for some years. But the owners Of small
places do not always have the white
paint at hand, and write on the dry,
wooden surface. A few showers Of rain
obliterate such names; but If the wood
is first moistened, before the writing Is
done, the name will strike into the pores,
and will lasf distinctly for o year or two.
III in addition 70 wetting the surface, y
little gritty soil or sand is very thinly
rubbed over the surface, il will give
a much greater distinctness or blackness
from the pencil, and be ss good as
If written on white paint.
Fruit trees are most conveniently la
beled on one Of the side limbs. for which
the old method was 10 hang 4 plate Of
metal or piece Vt wood with loop Of
copper wire. Tho difficulty in using
such labels Is that the wire often cracks
or breaks OF after swinging years in the
wind, or else it cuts into tie bark Of the
branch, while some labor is required in
making and placing them. A much
cheaper label is made Of strip Of zinc
half an inch wide and several inches
long, on one end Of which the name i
written with common pencil, and the
other end Is coiled around the side limb,
20 that the name hangs down in full
. sight. The zinc must be roughened .
little with rust, by exposure TO moisturt
or salt water, so as to take strong mark
from the pencil. Such writing on zinc
will last Tor lifetime exposed to The
weather. We have seen i as distinct a.
ever after thirty years exposure. tn,
coil should extend rather more than ono,
around the branch. aud as the tree grows
the zinc slowly uncoiIs and does not en-
the bark. Scrap zinc will make them y!
the hundred for the mere labor. and thel
will be far better than any Of the NOR
expensive tags with wire loops. - Ceiti

AGRICULTURAL.
TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
10 FARM AND GARDEN
How sheen Pay.


II farmer has plenty of patience, aud
is willing to give close attention to de.
tails in the care OF stock, he can make
more money for food consumed from
sheep than from ony other stock. But
not one farmer in ten viii care TO give
them the attention they require ut certain
seasons Of the year; so the few who do
take good care OF flock will find u
good market for muttnn, and demand
for wool at some price, usually enough
to pay wintering the tock. A farm
which Is rolling in its surface seems per-
fectly adapted to sheep raising. Snch
land needs grass on the hill.tops to keep
it from washing, and sheep need hill
tops and sweet. short grss. They like
to lie down on hillside in the spring,
where the sun makes the ground dry and
warm. and where they are protected from
the cold sweep of the wind. .
The greatest profit from sheep Is not
in mutton or w1ol, but in the enhanced
fertility of the farm on which they are
kept. No other stock can compare with
sheep in this direction. The increased
value comes from two causes: the large
quantity of solid and liquid manure de,
posted on all the land. and particularly
on the highest and poores; points in the
pasture. The manure. being tine and
well-scattered. il pressed about the roots
of the grass, where it gives the greatest
possible benefit. Another source where.
by the grasses ore encouraged is the de-
struction of bushes aud many kinds OF
weeds which grow where cattle and
horses only are pastured. Harel.brush
fares very badly in the sheep pasture.
and wild roses, rag-weed, burdOcks, and
other weeds are selected fSt, and then
the sheep look for grass. In this way u
sheep pasture becomes like n beautiful
lawn, and every year grows better: but il
tie farmer sees 'millions in sheep" and
Oyer-stocks his fields. then the grass zoe.
with the bushes aud weeds. Then the
sheep get poor, tumble down one afiei
another, their ambition lessons as thsit
flesh goes, and ths unfortunate owner,
or imprudent manager, votes sheep a
perfect nuisance. American AgrieIlia
