In view of the fact that it is impos-
sible to recover the 100000 and more
that have been annually lost for sew
eral years to the state by the NAL
administration of the treasury and
the investigation of which Henry X.
Boyer prevented, it would be folly to
elect him to the state treasurership.
A man of his training and disposition
in the Office would only make bad
matters worse.

The X. of L. assemblies of the

country, and, while not in the nature
of a boom, shows that the seeds sown
by the recent educational campaign
are already at work.

Diversified Farming.

The one crop system, followed up. will
breed disease, no matter what the crop
may be. A rotation of crops will, in a
measure, if not wholly, prevent its devel-
opment. Diverse crops on the same soil
are measurably preventative.anda as well
a rejuvenator of the soil. Corn following
corn, or wheat following wheat, for series
of years is the prime cause of insect pests;
whereas an absolute change, not only OF
crop, but of variety of crop, so as to in
duce change in the method of cultivation,
in the habits of plant growth and the de-
mands on the soil, will be very apt to pre-
vent the development of insect pests.

FARM 8 FOREST.
To Build q SilO.

A subscriber of Tile Prairie Farmer
asks for directions how to build silo.
Mr.. B. 8. Hoxie, valued occasional cor
respondent of ours, says:
IF the structure is to be detached from
the barn, make low foundation wall, just
high enough to prevent any surface wa
ter ever coming in contact with the ensi-
lage. Fill up the floor to the lever of this
wall, and finish off with clay we'll pound
ed down, or cement Of water lime.
Next lay your sills of 2 < 8 in. joist, fiat
on the wall, and bed them we'll in lime
mortar; have them so firm that there will
will be no chance to spread or get out Of
out of place. On the joists place
2 8 in. studding 16 feet long. This
is a proper height for the silo, and 16 in
ches from center to center. Toe-nail firm
ly at the bottom of the sill. The object
of placing the studding this distance
apart is to accommodate the width of tar
red paper; for perfect silo must be per-
fectly air tight on sides and on bottom.
Now put good tarred paper on the inside
of the studs, tapping, as it will, SO as to
make tight work; cover with good, sound
matched flooring, and see to it that the
corners are made secure so that there
will be no spread, or give, to let in the air.
Enclose the outside surface with tarred
paper same as inside, and good drop-lap
siding. as it is called. or any similar meth
cd, being careful to make it tight and firm.
The roof is made as any ordinary barn
roof, and the building may be finished
up on the outside to suit the owners fancy
or pocket.
A very good size for silo would be 16
< 81 feet, or If more room is needed, make
it longer and put in cross PARTITION of

We think the officers are justly due this

that paper is called to the facts that Lane
county is not only in Mr.. Peterss district,
but there are three land offices in that dis
trict,and, presumptively, Mr.. Stearns's ap-
pointment to position in this land Office
would result in Mr.. Peters finally naming
seven land-office appointees to Mr.. Tur-
per five, while the latter has three land Of

GENTLY valuable to warrant any such dis

Attention! Old Soldiers!

Hoxie Sentinel.
As very large majority of the old SOL
diers of western Kansas are men of limited
means, fortune not having ministered to
us with a lavish hand, therefore the most
of us have been deprived of attending our
National Encampment of the G. A. r.,
held at Milwaukee, on account of the cost
Of getting there, owing to the action of
the railroads in exacting higher rates
than heretofore. If any organization of
men in this nation are entitled to favors
from transportation companies, it is the
men who made it possible for these i'm
mense national roads to exist, and yet we
have been refused; consequently we have
stayed quietly at home. But the time draws
near when we are going to have reunion

would like to see every old soldier in Sher-
idan county turn out and attend this re-
union in body. We can leave Hoxie on
the morning of the 9th and reach Wa
Keeney that day. Boys, let us make a
grand rally and show the people Of Trego
and adjoining counties that we still live
and have not forgotten when we were
young. We can come together at a very
small expense,re the friendships weld
ed in the fire of battle, kindle anew the
fires of patriotism and assemble around
the camp fire where song and story shall
bring up the old memories of the day 8
when we walked shoulder to shoulder,
touching elbows and keeping time to the
music of the union. I would like to have
all who desire to attend this reunion to |
report to me as soon as possible so we
will be enabled to attend in body and |
make as good showing as possible.

are old and crippled and turn out in full

BROKEN POLITICAL PROMISES.

Major Caldwell promises to publish the

office and the voluntary work in his be-
half in the Kirwin land Office matter. 1t
will cast gloom over the horizon. of
more than one political trickster. Cald-
well has Jared little worse than hundreds

senators and representatives to lie when
the truth would answer better. They are
politically dishonest when honesty would
add immensely to their popularity. They
deceive when a school boy would know
he would lie found out Salina RefU6ii-
c0s.

half right, but wholly wrong. at is" not
"a common practice for senators and rep
resentatives to lie when the truth would
serve them better" They take no more
delight in lying than other men do; and
the Republican is wholly wrong in insinu-
sting to the contrary.
That paper ought to know that Office
seeking has developed into mania;
that choice between persoral-political
friends and the best interests of the pub
lie or of the party must often call forth
from representatives and senators the ex-
ercise of diplomacy; that. at best the
tales of some of the defeated aspirants are
apt to do an injustice to the actual posi-
tions of the senators and representatives.

that the rugged road Of telling only one
man that his chances are good for GER

The Export Cattle Trade.

There is unusual activity in the export
cattle trade both at Boston and New
York, caused partly by the glut OF cattle
and consequent low prices in this country
and partly by increased demand abroad.
For the months OF August and September
all the available space has been engaged
in out going steamers for Liverpool, Glas-
gov and London to transport cattle. An
exporter estimates that there are from
$500, to 5000 head shipped weekly from
New York, and about half that number
from Boston. Freights have nearly doub-
led, and the steamship companies will get
the lions share of the profit.
