Ponds.

One of the most important improve
ments on a Kansas farm is an artif-
cial pond. By evaporation moisture
is retained on the place and better
crops are grown by it. If you have
no draw on your place select a point
on the lower side of slope, pillow and
serape out a hole and then pillow two
burrows the shape of o < coming to-
gether at the excavation. If you have
d ravine, choose the lowest place, so
as to catch as much water as possible
in case of light rain IN a dry time.
Take the earth from the upper side
and build the dam very wide and
high. and after you think you have it
high enough, build 1t four feet higher.
No pond is a permanent institution
without mud dam above. especially
where the water is caught from plow-
ed ground; this is made the same as
any other pond, only smaller, and
built Just above high water mark IN
the. permanent pond The mud pond
must be scraped out as soon as it is
filed qhd dry. All dams should be
fenced and planted to our native
basket willow as soon as made, espec-
tally SO where hogs have access to the
pond Carp can be kept in, and sun
fish out, by having the water escape
over q long plank set on edge and
staked there.-KGHsas People.

The goldite advocates persistently
pretend to forget that the first issues
of greenbacks were full legal tenders
receivable on tariff dues and never
deprecated but were always as good
as gold. They also pretend not to
know that the supreme court of the
United States has decided that the
government may make money, abso-
Lutte fat money. full and unlimited
legal tender, at any time, war or peace,
out of paper, with out making such
money redeemable in gold or silver
coin. There is no good reason why our
paper money issued by the government,
should differ in its momentary attrib-
utes from gold and silver coin, and
no argument can be produced going
to show why we should pay out gold or
silver or create a bonded debt in order
to put paper money in circulation.
The great mistake in our govern
ment is that, instead of attending to
public matters itself too many purely
government duties, including the is
suance of money, are turned over to
corporations. Joe Herald.

We hear of but few spring terms
that are going to be held this spring.
Miss Louise Carman began four
months term of school in district No.
81, on the 10Th of February.
We are more than pleased to see
the interest that is manifested in the
southwest part of the county. A fine
program is to be carried out next
Saturday, at Logan.
A good, live teacher can do more
than anyone to enlist public senti-
ment if they will be alive themselves.
What grand improvement it would
be if every township possessed one of
these live persons. We shall speak
of school officers next week.

He has but few equals in the state.
No doubt some Of our teachers re-
member HIM, as president of the state
association, last year.
To school boards who are thinking
of having a spring term: Remember
our summer normal begins June Sth.
Remember, also, that June is one Of
the hottest months of the year. IL
you have three months term try and
have it begin in March, in order that
you may be able to close your school
before the hottest days come.
We should be pleased to see as

county association, as those who ares
Remember that the teachers who at
tend these meetings are not the only
people who need these meetings. In
fact the teachers who attend these
meetings do not need them half SO
much as the people. And your at
tendance will also help to arouse the
Indifferent teachers. Do the people
want better teachers, teachers who
are more wIde-awake, and up with
the times IN progress? If they do,
the best way to get them is to show a
proper interest themselves, and the
good teacher will be forthcoming.
