rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks of pneumonia while in the north

his return he was threatened with a
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr.. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store
and got bottle of Chamberlain's Cough

i that have appointed VIM. Butler
& Co. exclusive agents for the sale of the
"Oregon" lime, at The Dalles, and sur

through surreptitious and unbusinesslike
methods, obtained small quantity of

the idea that Butler & Co. are not the
exclusive agents of these goods.

and further stock of this article cannot

THE ExTRAyAGANCE OF MUD.


The Century magazine has taken up
the question of good roads and is dis
cussing it in series of articles that
contain great deal of good sense and
many practical suggestions. In the
April number the writer considers es-
pecially the extravaganza of bad
roads, and presents startling exam
pie of it by showing the loss occasion
ed the farmers of the country by the
enforced idleness of their horses. We
have in the United States something
like 100000 of horses and mules
above the age of two years upon our
farms, and at the moderate estimate
of % cents as the cost of feed and care
of these animals, the aggregate ex-
pense of maintaining them is about
81 900, 900 per day. If, by a similarly
moderate estimate, we say that they
are kept in the stable in a condition of
enforced idleness by the deep mud of
spring and fall for a period averaging
20 days in each year, we may easily
compute that the loss, in this respect
alone, will amount to SSO,OOO,OOO per
year, sum sufficient to build $780,
miles of excellent highway. OF
course, considering the great variety
of conditions, and the consequent num-
Der of factors to be regarded, it is inn
possible by mathematical formula to
compute the loss entailed on any COM
munity by the continued liberation of
these dirt roads in their present con-
dition; but the error in the result of
any computation is more likely to
show loss smaller than actually eX-
lists, and in whatever way the matter
may be regarded, it is certain that
with the imposed burden of extra help
and extra draft animals, loss of time,
wear and tear of wagons and harness,
the drawing of light loads, and the
deprecated value of farm lands, we
are pursuing short-sighted policy in
POAhipoihS ehC pAOeOhO ~ S0Ohl w OOh-
tinue. Besides the actual loss, which
moments reflection will serve to
show, we are gaining nothing and
saving nothing in that great depart
ment ofagricultural industry to which
the condition of the dirt road is of
such marked Importance.
Next to the question of assessment
and taxation the one that most nearly
touches the people, especially the
farmers of Kansas is that of good
roads. 1t is hoped that the present
agitation will result in some amend
ment of our laws that will make our
progress toward permanent roads
more easy and rapid.

It is expected that proclamation

has not been officially determined but
will probably be between April 10th

Indians, there will remain about 81
500, 900 acres to be occupied under the
Homestead act. This will make over
10000 quarter sections. The above
reservation cont aims six counties, G.

string to enter lands in said counties
should purchase tickets to either KiO-

on trip care SO little for fresh meat
That day but six miles was made and
the next day only seven. We now sp-
preciated how much we had lost in our
fine upstream wind. At our third
camp fresh bear tracks were in abund-
ance, but it was the only part of the
animal we saw. One of the surprising
things to me was the kittenish playful
ness of the Indians after camping and
after very hard days work. Many Of
them wrestled and played tag" VOL
entity, while one amused himself cut
ting down large poplar tree, just to
see some of his fellows scampering to
get out of the way. 1 have found this
merrymaking universal among the
T'linkits. The 29th the breeze came up
about 10 and we needed every puff of
it, for the river was now very swift.
On some of the shallow places we could
hear the rolling pebbles beat against
the canoe bottom almost like hail on a
tin roof. In some places it was SEEM
ingly a fight for life to avoid being
swept down some side channel, swift,
shallow and bristling with drift-tim-
Der. Once we were caught directly
against huge drift-log in mid-stream,
over which the swift water fairly
boiled. Why we were not swept under
it or broken in two even the Indians
could not explain. We could not bulge
an inch, but were finally liberated in q
way the very least expected; the log
itself broke, and this, too, where it was
a foot or two in diameter. 1t is not
often that rotten log averts disas-
ter; it is more likely to determine one.
There was not enough room along the
sides for all to pole effectively, as
the Doctors time was drawn to his
topographic work considerably, while
if l stood up threw the hydrostatic
equilibrium of the whole expedition
into an epileptic fit. We two were
excused, but Russell, an excel
lent river man, held his own fully
with the others. In the use of the
paddle, however, we came to the front
and broke our share.
Later in the afternoon we came to
our first canyon. Here the whole river
passes through a rocky gorge, with not
very high banks, and some 125 yards in
width. As the current did not increase
greatly, if at all, inferred it was of I'M
usual depth. Anyway polling was out of
the question, and it required strategic
tracking toget the great canoe through.

acter. BY clock mountain goats were
seen all around US. SO that when the
work got so hard, polling and padding,
that even climbing the crags after
them was comparatively easy, the
Indians desired to exchange, so we
pulled into small bayou on the north
side to hunt these Alpine antelopes.
The nearest group was a nanny goat
and her two kids, and they certainly
ought to have seen us, although we did
keep reasonably quiet for savages.
believe the greatest excitement in
hunting them lies more in the danger
GUS country they roam, than in any
extra wise precautions necessary in
stalking them. They were from 1000
to ] POO feet above us, and two Indians
started for them, their arms being a
rified musket and my Winchester 40-s2
rifle, as / felt too tried watching the
Indians pole and paddle all day, to at
tempt it myself. Nothing was seen of
them for half hour, when shot was
heard, followed almost instantly by
another. The mother fell at once, and
so steep was the mountain side that
her death struggles carried her 400 to
500 feet "head over heels" downwards
to crag where the body lodged. Tee
kids scampered off like rabbits, followed
by few shots. Their meat was proba-
bly, worth eating, but that of their
dam was stronger than badger. The
hunters made their way to the goat,
gave it fling, and followed this up
until it arrived by installments. thad

the more important being the South
fork. 1t was up the North fork. how
ever, we turned about a mile, and, as
usual, camped on gravel bar after
eight miles of travel that in labor
represented nearer eighty. At
the confluence of the two main
forks was a deserted Indian house sur

graves, themselves diminutive houses.
The whole river, however, bristled with
picturesque graveyards and deserted or
half destroyed buildings, until one is
forced to acknowledge that it is a
solemn and melancholy old stream.
