The Claim of the Farmer for Equal Privi-
leges.

1t ought readily be conceived that the cul-
tivation of the earth, as the primary and
most certain source Irrational supply; as the
immediate and chief source of subsistence to
man; as the principal source of those
materials which constitute the nutrimenl of
other kinds of labor as including state
most favorable to the freedom and independ-
ence of the human mind has in
trinsicaly a strong claim to pre-eminence
over every other kind of indusiry.-A1eran

A Whipping Post Law.

On the evening of the 10th inst. a
great big, red-faced, lousy looking
tramp was seen around town, and was
ordered out of several places of bust
ness during the evening. On Tuesday
morning he entered the house of Mr..
Lamme, and took therefrom a laprobe
b elonging to Mrs. Lamme. James
Lauer, who was at work in the brick
store opposite, saw him commit the
deed, and gave the alarm. The robe
was taken away from him and the
thief arrested. He was taken before
Justice Childers, where he gave the
name of NJ J. McInerney, and was
bound over to await the action OF the
grand jury. Deputy Sheriff Edwards
took him to Boise City and placed the
thing in Jail. All this great big, stout
young men committed the deed Of en-
tering the house and stealing the lap
robe for, was for the purpose of obtain
ing free bed and board for the coming
six months. He did not want or need
the article taken, and evidently had no
other motive in view than the one
stated. In view of the fact that this
class of tramps, thugs, thieves or buns
are becoming each year more numer-
GUS, some other mode of punishment
more severe than sending, them to jail,
where they are punished with warm
rooms, good beds and plenty to eat,
must be provided for. For our part
we are solidly in favor of the whipping
post, and ask the brethren of the press
of the state to give their
opinion in regard to the ques-
ton. All know who stop to think,
that the elegantly furnished county
jails of the present day encourage this
class of gentry--the theiving tramp
who only steals just enough to get a
term to last through the winter. Let
us all urge upon the coming legislature
the necessity of enacting a whipping
post law, and we do not think but
very few tramps will stop within the
borders of Idaho.-Payette Transcript.

by the Wyoming legislature.

Mr.. John Keown, the worthy
postmaster at Keown, Allegheny

lain's Cough Remedy sells better
than any other" The reason of
this is because it can always be
depended upon. Let any one
troubled with a severe cold give it
a trial and they will find the first
dose will relieve the lungs and
make breathing easier, and that its
continued use will free the system
of all symptoms of the cold. The
promptness and certainty of this
remedy in the relief and cure of
colds, has won for it many sincere
friends and made it very popular.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Economical Living.

One of the subjects talked and written
about good deal at the present time is
how to live chcaply. Prices of all the
great staples of life are high. Rents are
enormous. Fashions are cXacting.
Wants multiply while sscurces diminish.
How to make strap and buckle meet is
the problem which presses on hundreds
of houSekecperS. 1t is what is done to
keep up appearances that destroys the
equilibrium between Outgo and income,
and make life drudgery and veXation.
How to live cheaply is a question easy
enough to answer if one will be content
with cheap living. Substitute comfort
for show. Put convenience in the place
of fashion. Study simplicity. Refuse
to be beguiled into style of living above
what is required by your position in So
cicty and is justified by your resources.
Set fashion o. simplicity, neatness,
prudence and nnSiyeneSS, which
others will be ~, = follow, and thank
you for Introducing. Teach yourself to
do without thousand and one pretty
and snowy things which wealthy people
purchase. and pride yourself on being
just as happy without them as your
rich neighborS are with them. Put SO
much dignity, sincerity, kindness, virtue
and love into your simple and IneXpen-
Sive home that its members will never
miss the costly fripperieS and snowy
adornmentS, and be happier in the cosy
and comfortable apartments than most
of their wealthy neighbors are in their
splendid establishments. 1t does not
follow that in order to live cheaply one
must live mcanly. The best comforts of
life are not costly. Taste, refinement,
good cheer, wit, and even elegance, are
not expensive. There is no trouble
about young people marrying with no
outfit but health and love and an honest
purpose, provided they will practice the
thrift and prudence to which their grand
parents owed all their success, and make
their thought and love supply what they
lack in the means of display. Those
who begin life at the top of the ladder
generally tumble off, while those who
begin at the foot acquire steadiness,
courage and strength of arm and will as
they rise

man who adulterated milk should be
hung. And this because the milk IS
used by the infants, the weak and the
sick as we'll as by the well, and any in
furious matter in the milk is sure death
to the person who drinks it.
THERE is one sure and certain specific
against milk fever in cows; not as cure
but preventive This is to avoid oil
grain feeding for one month before caly-
ing, to gradually dry off the COW two
months before it, to feed no grain food
for one month after calving. and to keep
the COW quiet and remove the calf before
it has sucked. Diaries where this
system is practiced never have a case of
milk fever.
A DAIRYMAN remarked about his water
supply brought from a distant spring
through pipes into his hOuse-yard and
barn-yard, that is worth to me thou
sand dollars" And he proved it to the
doubling questioner by showing that the
convenience in saving time alone was
worth more than a dollar week, and
that was equal to 6 per cent. interest on
the 81 200, while the improvement in his
cows, due to the permanent and pure
water supply, was worth even more than
this.
THE man who is always harping upon
the foOllShneSS, or worse, OF farmers
keeping the common cattle instead of
pure bred herds, is a-well, there is no
mood strong enough to express the idea.
For while there are more than 5000. 600
farmers who keep cows, there are only
o., 900 pure bred cows and 46, 900 bulls
recorded in the herd books, to which
good. bad and indifferent all go from the
first beginning of the records. and large
number of these are dead. How far
would the whole go around all the
farmers? One to every 12O farmers, that

CULTIVATION of the soil is not for the
mere killing of the weeds; it is indis-
penSablc for the growth of crops. A
corn or potato crop should be worked
once Il week.
AN Irishman who grew big crops of
potatoes, was asked how he did it.
well" he replied, Il plants good seed;
| gives plenty of manure: | hoe 'em, and
| hoe EN-. and / hoe EN-; l am allus
hoeing them; and they grows and
grows"
ALL We have to do is to keep soil act
ing: TO make it soluble; to furnish it
with organic matter; and to give the
rain. the atmosphere and the suns heat
fullest opportunity to exert their chem
zeal agencies on the soil TO make it fit
for plant food.
II is not necessary to grow crops for
feeding stock merely for the making of
manure, when the stock cannot be sold
ut profitable prices A good fertilizer
contains every element of plant food that
exists in manure. One may sell hay and
straw without damage or loss if he
spends part Of the money for fertilizers.
The organic matter required ts keep the
soil porous may be furnished by blowing
under clover, and the remains of other
crops
WHAT should be done with the excess
of land if the yield of crops can be
doubled, and one-half the land dispensed
with for this use? Grow timber. There
is no other product of the soil becoming
SO scarce as this is. and for hundreds of
uses timber is growing steadily in value.
A plantation of oaks, hickoricS. chest
nuts, waInuts or birchcs will begin to
yield profit when four or five years old.
This is long time to wait, you will say,
but we wait longer than that for profit
from an orchard, and yet we wait very
patiently for the fruit of it. and never
grumblc at the time that it takes.

The Hat in the Elevator.

A business woman, quoted in the New
York Times, finds something to add IN
the matter of what men shall do with
their hats in an elevator. Il wish, she
SAYS, there could be a defined and ac-
cepted rule upon the subject. My oc-
cupation takes me daily into an eleva-
tor III one of the large business buildings
down town, and my experience III this
regard is varied and sometimes I'M
pleasant. Frequently nobody removes
his hat, and that is what | like best.
Sometimes | get on at the ground floor
with half dozen men whose heads all
remain covered; We go up two or three
stories and a seventh enters the car,
and, seeing me, whips off his hat. OF
course this is intended for a courtesy,
but it seems rebukc rs we'll to the slX
who have not removed theirs. and often
