German
Syrup

1 am farmer at Edom, Texas. I
have used German Syrup for six
years successfully for Sore Throat,
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Pains In
Chest and Lungs and Spitting-up of
Blood. I have tried many kinds of
Cough Syrups in my time, but let
me say to anyone wanting such a
Northumberland Syrupis the best.
We are subject to so many sudden
changes from cold to hot, damp
weather here, but in families where
German Syrup is used there is little
trouble from colds. John E. ZONES. q

KING BEHANzIN Of Dahomy seems
TO be in bad way. The French SOL
diers have killed off his amazons and
invaded his territory. If Behanzin
is wise he will come to America and
secure lot of new amazons from the
bulesque shows. America can spare
a number very easily, and it's dollars
to doughnuts they will prove too
much for the French army. Theat-
rical amazons have ever conquered the
Gallo soldiers

Lawyer s. is well known for his un.

about the ears He was making a
witness describe a barn which figured
in his last case.
Chow long had this barn been
built?"
''Oh. 1 don't know. About a year,
mebby. About nineFmonths, p'raps. 4"
'tBut just how long? Tell the jury
how long it had been built.'
'Well, I don't know exactly.
Quite a while"
"Now, Mr. B., you pass for an in
telligent farmer, and yet you can't
tell how old this barn is; and you have
lived on the next farm for ten years.
Can you tell how old your own house
is? Come now, tell US how OLD your
own house is, if you think you know"
Quick as lightning the old farmer
replied:
Eye want to know how old nay
house is, do We? Well. it's just about
as old as you be, and needs shinglin'
about as bad!"
In the roar that followed. the wit
ness stepped down, and lawyer S.
didn't call him back.

Feb. 22d will be observed in
Unionville by rafting fifty dollar
silk quilt which was made by Mrs.
William Corbiere; following this will
be a dance, and supper to be gotten
up by Mrs. j. Springer. They don't
do things by halves over there. Dur

ranks OF single blessedness for those
of double wretchedness will succeed
in throwing five skies.

Get Out Your Muff1er.

About Thursday night we may an
ticipate the usual annual bursting of
bombs and the explosion of scores of
packs of firecrackers in Chinatown,
as the China new year comes on Fri
day. That miserable old gong, or
China band, will make the next few
DAYS and nights a burden to us all.
Why don't they turn in and hire the
Winnemucca brass band? That
would be an improvement. The small
boy, and possibly the small(O girl,
will be visiting the back streets for
the purpose OF investigating the
Chinese candy, nuts, ginger and the
crackers that have missed fire.

this dereliction of duty on the part of

that the SILVER STATES are all tied

The quality of milk varies greatly
from milking to milking or from day
to day. From one day to the next
it may vary as much as q per cent.
For this reason we would like samples
of single milkings, of two or more
combined and of milk from individ-
ual cows and of the mixed milk of
herds. Samples of skinned milk
and buttermilk are also desired.
This work is to be done in the inter-

us in the work which vii. be of bene-
fit to them and at the same time
costs them nothing save the little
time and trouble necessary to pre-
pare and send the samples.
Beginning Tuesday, January 26th.
we shall be prepared to receive SAM
pies for this particular work for three
or four weeks.

full description (stating whether it
is the milk from whole herd or indiv-
idual COW, whether one or more milk

or both) by express, or bring to

MILK TESTING.
An Opportunity of Which Every Dairy
man Should Take ADVANTAGE.

man Should Take Advantare.
EDITOR SILVER STATE: Dear Sir -
This Station is about to make COM
parison of the most practical methods
for milk testing, in order to give the
farmers and Others of the State, who
may wish to test their herds, informa-
ton as to the most expedient method
for their use, the cost of such appara-
Jus as is necessary, and the expense
of using the same. This matter of
milk testing is of vastly more i'm
portance to the diary farmer than
many OF them imagine. Amongst
every herd will be found individual
animals which are really being KEEP
at a loss to their owner, others that
barely pay for their keeping, and
still others that are source of sreat
profit.
1t is really money in the pocket of
the farmer to sort out those COWS of
his herd that he is feeding at loss.
The best and most expeditions way
of doing this is to make thorough
test for butter fat of the milk of each
cow separately.
In order to get material to work
with, and from as many sources as
possible, we invite any and all who
may own COWS and would like to have
them tested and at the same time
aid the Station in it's work, to send
to the Station samples of milk, which
will be tested free of charge and re-
suits reported.
1t is to be distinctly understood
that the Station reserves the right to
publish any and all results, for the
public benefit, in the bulletin which
VIII be issued describing the work.
The following are directions for
taking milk samples, and it is advisa-
BILE that they be followed as closely
as possible so that those sending the
samples may obtain results showing
the exact quality of the milk being
given by each particular COW.
In sampling single cows, have a
glass fruit can-or other vessel with
good tight Governor each COW to be
tested. As soon as each COW is
MIXED, thoroughly mix the milk by
pouring from one pail to another
three or four times (the simple pro-
cess of milking is not sufficient to
thoroughly mix the MILK With a
small dipper ~ pint dip up about
a tea-cup full and place in the glass
can; this must be done before the
milk has time to settle.
Each can should be labeled with
the name of COW or numbered SO as
not to get mixed. At the next milking
put another dipperiul of the same
size into the can in the same manner
as before. In this way may be OBJ
tanned samples representing only one
milking or more just as it is desired.
When it is desired to test the
mixed milk OF a whole herd the sam
pie is best taken by having pail at
hand and as each COW is MIXED mix
the milk thoroughly. and put Dip
perful into the pail. When milking
is finished and dipperiul from each
cows milk has been put into the pail
mix it thoroughly by pouring from
one pail to another and dip out about

Next.
They are coming. Who? Messrs.
A. G. Wolfenbarger, orator, and A.
E. Huckins, vocalist, OF the National
Prohibition Committee, to open the
political campaign in Nevada for
1892.
Prohibition is no longer a helpless
babe; neither is it a dead issue. 1t is
live subject, and is fraught with the
grea Test Importance to every State
and territory in the Union.
Citizens, voters and politicians of
all shades of opinions, you are specially
invited to attend this meeting.
Matters in which you directly and
the nation in general are interested
in will be discussed. You cannot
afford to miss the speaking and sing
ing, which will be of an interesting,
educatory and entertaining nature.
WHO THEY ARE.
They are no bogus Good Templars
or shoddy temperance speaker of any
kind, as the following will show:
Mr.. Wolfenbarger is practicing
attorney and member of the Supreme
Court bar of the State of Nebraska.
During the Nebraska campaign for
Constitutional Prohibition, he
furnished information on the struggle
to 300 newspapers every week, and
also answered from the stump the
leading lawyer cham pion of the
liquor men, John L. Webster, in
every Congressional District. He
also helped to win the victory for
Constitutional Prohibition in South
Dakota, delivering So speeches in 80
days during the campaign. Chancellor
Creighton, of Nebraska Wesleyan
University, says: "He is son of
thunder and the execution of his
bolts is seen in the fact that he is one
of the best-hated men in this coun-
try" The Chicago Daily NeUs says:
"Mr. Wolfenbarger stands nearly six
feet tall and talks with the logic of
Webster"
The Aberdeen (South Dakota)
appeal says: "Mr. Huckins was
formerly in the mercantile business
and was induced to go into the pro-
hibition work by Hon. John B. Finch.
He has now been in the work over
eight years, and he has sung to not
less taan half million people. He
has happy faculty of making every
body sing with him. He handles the
liveliest, newsiest, most humorous
and telling songs. He leaves whole
township humming the popular cam
paign ballads"
Do not fail to come and bring your
families. Republicans and Demo-
Gratis come and hear what will be said
from "Third Party" standpoint.
lie us show, by large attendance,
that we of this township of the Silver
State are ready to listen to and APP
preciate the presentation of import
ant political questions from any
reasonable sand point.

a satisfactory manner. Col Arnett cross

he was passed.

said he had not known either party-did
not know they were in existence, and had
neither bias or prejudice. He had express
