a Land Of Promise.

An exchange says that down in the
southeastern part of Utah, there will
soon be thrown open to settlement
magnificent tract of land. a great
many men of the union, have never
exercised their right to acquire a
homestead, and it may be expected
that the land of which we speak will
attract thousands of settlers as soon
as legal notice of its having been
thrown open shall be made.
This tract Of land embraces the
reservations of the Uintah and I'm
compahgre Indians. These lands are
well watered, contain excellent tim
Der, have fine climate and probably
for general farming and grazing pur-
poses cannot be excelled in the state
of Utah. The valleys are 1900 to
5000 feet above sea level, while the
mountains rise from 5000 to 1000 feet
higher.
The two reservations combined con,
tain an area of 62O7 square miles, or
3,612,98O acres; the Uintah contain.
ing 3l8j square miles, or 100000
acres and the Uncompahgre 3O21
square miles, or 1,933,44O acres.
There are 1000 Indians upon the res
ervations, and the head of each I'm
compahgre family will receive 800
acres and the other members of the
fam ly 100 acres each; counting five
Indians to the family, and the Uintab
Utes will probably receive the same
$4,000 acres will more than supply
their needs. This will leave 3,598. $50
acres for the white settlers, or nearly
100000 acres Of good land as at least
6Oper cent Of the land is suitable for
agricultural and stockraising pur.
poses.

Editing Country Paper in Florida.

Editing Country Paper III tloflua.
Editing a newspaper is a pleasant
buslness--if you can stand it, says the
st. Augustine News. If it contains
many advertisements subscribers
complain that they take up too much
space. If there is Il lack of advertis-
ing it is unpopular and the people
won't ha 5e it. II we attend church
regularly they say we go for elect.
If we stay away from church they say
we are monstrously hcathenish. il
we accept an invitation to d wedding
they say we are to "write it up" If
we go to an opera-house they Say we
go on free tickets. If we are seen Oh
the streets too often they say we neg
lect our business. If we avoid going
ON the street they say we don't hustle
around for the news. If we neglect Il
long communication its author gets
furiously enraged and discontinues
his paper. If we publish lengthy
communication our readers say we
lack discretion and put i'll anything to
Gill up" If we swell out in new
clothes and celebrate ground hog day,
they Say we got our clothes IL pay
ment for advertising, and that we are
by far too foppish. If, in our frailty,
we sometimes perpetrate a joke or
make stagger at a poor little pun,
they say we are exceedingly light and
won't do. If we omit the jokes they
say we are poor, miserable fossil.
If we are married they say it is pity
for our wife. If we are not married
they say it is because we are too
homely to get IL wife. If we publish
d man who has brought disgrace up
on his family, the friends of the fam
lily never forget us. If we, ont of
goodness of heart. decline to say any
thing on the subject, the mans enc
mics are disappointed and we are
branded as d white hvered coward.
We arc able to stand these raps and
many more and are alwavG ready to
receive visitors, whether accompanied
by a dog or not. OF course we do
not claim there is any work in run
ming Il newspaper knows it

A CHANGE MUST CONE.

Editor Hornoeck, of the Minco
Minstrel, who is now in Washington,
in writing to his paper has this to say:
Our delegation had an interview
with Hon. Uoke Smith last Tuesday.
We found him TO be we'll posted
man on all matters relating to Okla
homa and the Indian Territory. In
speaking of the Dawes Commission
he expressed but little opinion as to
what he expected of Its work, but
gave it as his opinion as a man, not
as an official at all, that If the Dawes
Commission should be unsuccessful 1t
was about time something should be
doUe to destroy the possibility of any
more outrages like that in the Choc-
law country last summer. Mr.. Smith
was very emphatic in his opinions
that better system of government
should at once displace the tribal la wl
of the Indian Territory.

Major Ii. j. Brennan, superintend-

turned this morning from weeks
visit to TushkahOma, the capital of
the Choctaw nation. While there he
met the Dawes commission. lie
states that the commission is doing
earnest, conservative work and that
its members are enthusiastic as to the
ultimate results of their negotiations
with the five civilized tribes. 1t is
thought that when the true attitude
of the government towards the In
dians is understood their representa-
tives will meet the commission half
way. This is not matter of cosr-
cion but one that, whatever its results.
will be in perfect harmony with the
Indians wishes. Mr.. Brennan say s
the commission expects to visit Ard
more next week,

A piece of pasture should by all
means be provided for the swine,
especially for young pigs. This insures
health and healthful growth. An acre
or two of orchard seeded to clover,
with an open shed for shelter during
storms, would be found very valuable.
Keep only grade pigs of a good breed,
and feed literally; this is the secret of
cheap pork. Amixture of salt, sulphur
and charcoal, given occasionally will
be useful; 4 ounces of each will be
enough for a weeks supply for IL full
grown pigs. Pure water should be
given plentifully.

before killing. All poultry, but more
especially turkeys, should be killed by
bleeding in the neck, and picked while
the body is warm; and in no case
should poultry be scalded; wet-picked
poultry is not wanted in this market,
and will not sell for what it is really
worth. AS oon as the poultry is
picked, take off the head at the throat,
strip the blood out of the neck, peel
back the skin a little, remove a portion
OF the neck bone, then just before pack
ing, except in warm weather, draw the
skin over the end and tie and trim
neatly. Draw the intestines, making
the ncision as small as possible, and
leave the gizzard, heart, etc, in. Pull
out the wing and tail feathers clean.
Undrawn poultry can be sold to a
limited extent when there is no other
to be had, provided there is no food in
the crop, or entrails, but as a rule has
to go at very low prices.
Packing Poultry should be entirely
cold, but not frozen, before being
packed. If packed with the animal
heat in, it will be almost sure to spoil.
Sort your poultry carefully, and have
the No. 1 stock of uniform quality.
Pack the No. 3 stock in separate pack
ages. fyou have any old bull turkeys,
put them in a separate package or with
No. 2 stock. Line the boxes with clean
paper, but never use straw in packing
and wrap the birds in paper. Pack as
closely as possible, backs upward, legs
out straight, and see that the boxes are
so full that when the covers are nailed
on, there can be no possibility of the
contents shifting about. Boxes are
the best packages, and should contain
from 100 to 200 pounds. Larger boxes
are in~convenient to handle, and more
liable to get injured.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

I desire to call the attention of the
members of the Alliance who have
still, notes and unpaid accounts for fer
tilizer, to the fact that the Durham
Fertilizer Company have been ex-
tremely Ienient with them during the
financial depression, and have waited
on the Alliance people and have car
ried their notes and accounts 1 a time
when it was extremely inconvenlent to
them, and caused them many hard
ships, but they did this with the pur-
pose of protecting and helping the ALI
ance brethren when they sorely needed
this help. Brethren, you now have
your crops On hand, and while these
products may be very low, you owe 1t
to yourselves, to your Alliance and to
the company, to pay at once all that is
due for fertilizer. Let me beg you and
insist that you will at once send to the
company any" sums that you may be
due them. They must have this money
to furnish US ertilizer again thIssprlng,
and a payment to them nov means a
credit to you again in the spring. So
do not delay another day, but send the
money to them at once. This Is I'M
portant and must be attended to at
once.
We are going to furnish you the same
high grade goods that we have done
heretofore, and do all we can to accom-
modate you this year, but to get this
favor you must pay up what you W
Fertilizers are ready for shipment
now for the spring trade, and you can
send in your order.

The Lewis Brothers, of Taladega
county, Alabama, who are the owners
of a large tract of cotton-producing
land, propose to have the laborers con-
sumo the farm products, manufacture
all that they will need to wear, convert
the cotton into cloth and refine the cot
ton seed oil, so that everything raised
will reach the market through the
product of the mill. In this way the
services of the middlemen and the cost
of exchange will be dispensed with.

iishment OF a new order OF things in

CHANGE.

DEAR BRETHREN The alliance Pro-
duce Exchange" is open for the hand
ling of farm products. We do not
purchase your products but will sell
for you to the best advantage possible.
Write us what you have to sell and
will let you know about what we can
get for it. Eggs are higher here than
in New York and we have been getting
better prices. Think we will be able
to handle more and more as our plans
for putting only fresh eggs on market
become known. Poultry is in great
demand and we think for the next
three months if not all the summer it
will bring remunerative prices. Can
furnish shipping coops and simply
charge rent or sell them to you if de-
sired. We can handle bacon, lard,
fish, wheat, flour, corn, meal, potatoes,
&c. Prices are lower on all products
than they have been for years. We
have sent notice to all of shippers
not to send any more eggs North for
the present as it does not pay. There
were more than 90, 900, 900 eggs sent
into New York last week. We. will
try to handle all poultry and eggs
shipped here to your advantage. Do
not send eggs by express unless rates
are very low.
