The country press is very liberal

The country press is very liberal
in many things. Last week we
saw a reading notice Of twenty
lines in one of our exchanges about
a small, ordinary calendar. The
puff was an advertisement and was
worth dollar. So long as local
papers give so much space to such
things they should not talk about
charging home patrons for politi-
cal and kindred announcements.
IF this free advertising were shut
off the firms who have been reap
ing rewards from them would be
compelled to hire newspaper
space. So long as they can get a
dollars worth of locals in the
shape of a puff for two-cent cal
endar they will not be in a hurry
to pay a dollar for the space

Wheat Turning to Rye.

One Of the old conundrums was,
as to whether wheat would turn to
cheat. It was finally determined
that facts were against the change.
j. L. Powers, an Indiana farmer,
insists upon personal knowledge
of instance in Delaware county,
Ind, and attested by many of the
best citizens, in which wheat
turned to rye. His story is that
about eight years ago, a farmer
finding his wheat running out,
sent to another State and got pure
seed of the Martin Amber variety.
He sowed it four years in success
sion, the first year getting % bu.
per acre, the second 26 and the
third "a. It was such fine grain
that some of it was sold for seed.
The fourth yield was Is bu., but
it was not wheat. It was a beau
tiful white rye. No rye had ever
been sowed on these lands. The
statement is evidently credited and
a variety of attempts at expana-
ton are had. Whatever the facts,
nature is not likely to desert her
established rule, that like produces
like.-ZHe Northwestern Farmer.

Senator Eaton and Representa-
tive Dunn have introduced bills
defining a newspaper, and making
it obligatory that such newspapers
shall have been published one
year before they are entitled to
print the laws, or legal notices.
Mr.. Dunn's bill also provides for
genuine list of 800 subscribers in
order to be eligible to publish
legals, etc. We believe such a
law is needed, and that the pre-
sent legislature will enact it.
Every genuine newspaper man
in the State will favor it.

Considerable Influence.

Some trouble may be caused the
settlers on the Mile Laos Indian
reservation by the failure Of the
house to pass Senator Washburn's
Joint resolution for their relief.
Senator Washburn has consider
able influence before the depart
ments, however, and will probably
succeed in delaying any action
against the settlers until the reso-
luton can be taken up and passed
in the next congress. B'ras1erd

When sam Pankhurst was gone il
occurred to the minister that he had
said nothing TO him in reprobation

He had done infinitely better. An

Shame had called out shame, and cour-

The two men shook hands and the
minister's clasp was cordial.
Was he hero, or inveterate dreamer
and weakling? The elder could answer
most questions that raised the issue
of character with Q confidence all his
own. But not that one. He grappled
with it, and, metaphOrically, it rent
him. The next day, before the breath
of impending change had stirred the
sluggish air Of Heber Lane he was
again in the minister's study.

He was in earnest and at length
prevailed. When he reached home he
