The man who neglects or abuses
his animals will do the same by his
family.
A fruit tree like a fattening animal,
needs good feeding to make it
productive and profitable.
There is no single fact that gives
better evidence of farmers pros
perity than he has first-class cattle.
Intensive cultivation means simply
'farming to make money. The
man who does not believe in the
method had better abandon the
business.
A safe rule is to sell farm pro-
ducts, if there is surplus, when
offered fair paying price, instead of
holding for higher prices with chances
of lower.
Feeding an animal barely to support
existence is never profitable. While
it may "hold it's own," the owner
will not, for he loses the value of the
food consumed.
Horses need one day in the week
for rest as much as human beings,
and they will be most benefited by
their Sundays if allowed to run out
and not be cooped up in their stable.
The person who will whip horse
to give vent to his rage, is lower than
the lowest of the brute creation, and
deserves very liberal dose of the
same punishment we'll laid on.
The planting of tree whether fol
fruit, timber or ornament, increases
the value of the land. The value of
many farms could be doubled in a
few years by judicious tree planting.

States and find as general rule tha
the smaller the farm the better th

To Increase the Amount Owing Them.

Many of our exchanges have raised
their price from 81. 90 to ~. so per
year. This is owing to the advance
in the price of paper and to the dis
covery of the fact that good weekly
paper cannot be published for that
money. This is step in the right
direction. Newspaper men do more
good and get less pay for it than any
class of men in the country.

In this, the age of railroads, we are
apt to lose sight of the great import
ance of good wagon roads. We main
tain that nothing will more surely or
quickly make a country rich and
honored, if it really has any resources
to be developed, than substantial
wagon roads.
Let us suppose that two new states
have just been admitted to the union,
suppose they are just alike in natural
features and resources, and have the
same number of inhabitants of equal
wealth. In one state they Immediately
build $3.50, 900 state house, and
each of the twenty counties, in
emulation, build a $50, 900 court
house. The Legislature remains in
session ninety days, and creates many
fat offices, make extravagant
appropriations and many complex
laws. In the other state the Legis-
lature had thirty days session, passed
few necessary, sound, plain laws,
built plain comfortable IS, 600
capitol, and voted $3.50, 900 towards
starting perfect road system for the
state. Its twenty counties in the
same spirit, built each 81 800 court
house, and voted $50, 900 to build
good bridges, and put in lasting
culverts where streams and draws
crossed the roads; and suppose those
states worked on the lines they started
out on for ten years, don't any ont
know without stopping to think, tha
the last named state would have tel
, times the wealth, and hundred time
, more honor than the first. We al
like to see fine buildings; but let u
open our eyes to the fact that fin
roads also have charm, and fa
| greater usefulness. We all like t
see our state capitol and county seat

The Country Boy.

We nave spent much of the last thirty
four years IN farmers homes and nave
seen that boy-the country lad-as he is.
He arises early; he is acquainted with and
interested in all the stock and poultry; he
is acquainted with every bug and worm,
weed and cereal on the farm. He has a
good appetite and good digestion, his sleep
is sweet and refreshing. He reads thought
fully the great book of nature, whose leaves
open before him day after day. He loves
his father and mother, and calls them
such, and he loves his sweetheart as no
town boy does, and he is loved by her, in
turn, as no town boy is.
He works hard all day, and when night
m he enjoys a frolic with a healthful
zest, and then lies down to peaceful
dreams. He grows to a mans estate with
the rich heritage of good health, a clean,
well stored with practical knowledge
gained by the freside and in the
country lyceum. afectionate and trusting
in his disposition, polite and courteous,
though perhaps somewhat awkward in his
the battle of life. He knows nothing of
the follies and vices, the mockery and hol-
lowness so often seen in city life. He is a
grown-up man, and the chief places of
business in a city and in a nation come
that qualities him under guidance for emf
nent craftsmanship, for military renown,
for professional success, for judicial dis
tinctiOn and for the grandeSt citizenship.
and the grandest men of the future will be
found among the country boys of our
land. He may at times think his country
home plain and unattractive, his life one
of ~drudgery and humdrum, and may at
times envy the town boy and his more ex-
not worry. He has a far richer herita ge,
and the future will be q satisfaction to him.

Curing n Cold.

The season of colds being at hand, the in
structions of an eminent physician may be
found valuable When the first symptoms
manifest themselves is the time for action,
and this should consist of a hot mustard
foot-bath before going TO bed and a hot
draught of milk. The covering of the body
should be linen and wool, the former in the
way of the sheet and the latter in the blan-
ket. No attempt TO get up an active sweat
ing should be made. The foot-bath and the
warm drink will give a sense OF warmth
and facilitate the natural eXcretion of ma
terials which should pass away by the skin,
and any effort TO ~aggravate this will be not
only slperfluous but harmful. The blanket
should never be worn next to the night
robe. and should not be so thick as 10 con-
fine the air next TO the body. 1t is. indeed,
often advisable to tighten the covering of
the feet. and to preserve a certain amount
of weight over the Joins. and to have the
shoulders protected from the external sur
roundings in general. The last measure is
not To be moderated. A sensitive lung car
ries with il susceptibility to take TO itself
everything that could possibly affect it to
its detriment. Lung diseases belong to SEN
sitive persons, and may or may not be the
sequence OF a cold. The majority OF them,
however. can be traced TO ilnprudence In
dress and exposure.

Judge Stubs Knocks Out the
Garbage Ordinance.

The entire time of Judge Winters, in
Room l of the Superior Court is still oc-
cupied with hearing argument in the Iron
Hall case. The morning yesterday was oc-
cupied by Mr.. Baker. Of the law firm Of
Baker & Daniels. The trend of his argu-
ment was to prove that the order was an
insurance company, pure and simple. and
TO show that it was hopelessly insolvent-
He was Interrupted in the course Of his
argument by eX-Judge Howe, who asked
If they were ~endeavoring to show that the
order was insolvent at the time of the APP
pointment Of the receiver, or If it was at
the present time they were charging in
%solyency, Mr.. Baker replied that they con-
tended that the order was hopelessly in
volved at the time of the appointment,
and that the condition had continued to
grow worse every day since that time.
In the afternoon Smiley n. Chambers
took the floor and consumed the entire
afternoon in his argument. TIL gist of
his remarks was TO the effect that the
order was not insolvent at the time Of the
appointment of the receiver, and hence the
Appointment was not authorized. He argued
that the court had no right to say that the
order could not meet its liabilities which
had not yet matured when they did ma
ture. He did not pretend to be a fnancier,
and would not say that he could tell how
the order could meet it's obligations, but it
had done so for eleven years, and it was
not the province Of the court to apply its
own financial ideas and say that according
to them the order could not live. He laid
great stress upon the allegations that the
order was bound to pay no specific sum,
and hence could not be insolvent, as it was
not bound to pay any larger amount than
the funds on hand would enable it TO pay.
The argument will probably consume two
more days, and special findings of facts
will be submitted to the court by both
sides

GARBAGE ORDINANCE INVALID.
Judge Stubbs Declares 1t in No Wise
Rtuding.

The garbage ordinance was declared in
valid by Judge Stubs yesterday morning.
The decision was rendered in the case
against George Henderson for removing
without license, garbage from the premises
at No. II North Illinois street. There was
no dispute as to the evidence, it being adj
mitted that the defendant had removed the
garbage, he basing his defense upon the al
legged ~invalidity of the ordinance requiring
q license.
Judge Stubs said the only thing to con-
slider was whether, under the charter, the city
had the right to enact such an ordinance,
and If it had, where the power TO enact
was vested. He held that the power te en-
act the ordinance was in the city and vest
ed in the Council The ordinance was held
invalid for an inherent defect. The title
of the ordinance recited that it was en-
acted for the purpose of regulating the
collecting, keeping, storing, handling and
the removal by contract of kitchen garbage,
etc." The title was comprehensive enough,
but the body of the ordinance did not en-
brace the field covered in the title. In the
body of the ordinance there was no pro-
vision for the removal of the garbage by
contract or otherwise. AS the ordinance re-
quired the collection and removal of the
garbage, Judge Stubs held that the right
to have it removed must rest with the in
divldual, and he discharged the defendant
and held the ordinance invalid.
