TO PROMOTE IRRIGATION.
Third National Congress to Meet at Den.
yer in September.

Third National Congress to Meet at Den
yer in September.
The officers of the National Irriga-
ton Congress have issued the follow
ing call for the next meeting:
By the authority of the national ex-
ecutive committee, the third National
Irrigation Congress is hereby called to
meet in the city of Denver, Colorado,
for the seven days beginning Septem-
Der 3rd, 1894
To the people of the western half of
the United States this congress pre-
sents both an urgent duty and SUI
preme opportunity In this moment
of extraordinary political. social and
industrial unrest, the nation may we'll
recall Macauley's prediction that the
! real test or our institutions would
| come with the exhaustion of our pub
1 lie domain. The nation faces that
situation to-day, with all its perilous
possibilities, unless the arid public
| lands are to be made fit for the homes
of men.
To suggest the means whereby this
may be done, so that idle energies
shall find employment and landless
citizens find homes and industrial indie
pendence, is the duty and the oppor-
| tunity of western men.
Irrigation commissions in seventeen
states and territories, created by the
last irrigation congress, will render re-
ports to the convention at Denver
| Upon these studies of existing condi-
tions and future needs in all parts Of
the arid region, it is proposed to con-
struct a national policy and code of
local laws to be submitted to the fed
eral congress and the legislatures of
the Western states.
The congress will be composed as
follows:
1. All members Of the national
executive committee.
2. All members of state and terri
torial irrigation commissions.
3. Two delegates at large and as
many additional delegates as they
have congressional districts, to be ap-
pointed by their respective governors
for the following states and territories:
Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho,
Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada,
New Mexico, North Dakota, Okla
homa, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas,
Utah, Washington and Wyoming.
4. Two delegates at large for each
state and territory not heretofore
enumerated to be appointed by the
governors of said states and territories.
5. Duly accredited representatives
of any foreign nation or colony, each
member of the United States Senate
and House of Representatives, each
governor of a state or territory, one
member each from different societies
of irrigation, of irrigation engineers,
of agriculture, Of horticulture, Of
chambers of commerce, of boards of
trades, together with a delegate ap-
pointed by the mayor Of each incor-
porated city of the seventeen states
and territories named as being directly
interested in irrigation, will be adj
mitted as honorary members.

And it will prevail Against underhand com
petition and spurious imitation, the genuine
efficacy Of the great national tonic, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, always has and always will
prevail The public recognize it everywhere
as the chief preventive of malaria, and reli-
able specific for dyspepsia, constipation, nerv-
BUSINESS, rheumatism, kidney trouble, bilious
ness and loss Of appetite. Efforts made by ir-
responsible dealers to compete with it by
indirect means have and will continue to fall
upon the heads, and it may be added the peck
cts of those making them. Through the length
and breadth of the American continent it is tho
acknowledged household remedy, reliable and
prompt. It relies upon facts upon public ex
perience, ana upon the emphatic commenda-
ton of the medical fraternity.

LEvELING OLD B ATTLEMENrs. With
very few exceptions the old cities of
Belgium and Holland have leveIed the
walls which have played such grand
parts in the national histories, and they
are converted into promenades after
the manner of Chester and York. The
walls of Antwerp and Malines have
been replaced by boulevards The old
bastions of Amsterdam still remain,
but the citizens of Arnheim and
Utrecht and Hoorn and Zwolle and
HARLEM and Leyden disport them

stirring pages of what is perhaps the
most Stirring of European histories.

adapted to work automatically with
time mechanism, for feeding and
watering live stock, or a manually
operated circuit closer may be utilized
in connection with the improvement
if desired. For feeding hay a pivoted
rack is employed, journaled at a con-
venient point above the manager, the
rack being tilted to discharge its load
by the release of a catch on weighted
oscillating shaft which has a crank ex-
tending into the path of releasing
and locking bar held in a case operated
by the electric mechanism, a number
of racks being preferably arranged in
series and operated by one locking
box and bar. The grain is fed to the
manager in a similar way from COM
partments each adapted to contain
grain enough for one animal, any
number of such compartments being
provided. Leading from the bottom
of each compartment is a discharge
pipe, the slide covering the opening to
which is connected with a shaft actu-
ated by bar from locking and re-
leasing box The water is also
similarly supplied from tank ar
ranged at suitable elevation, the
valve being controlled by a lever
actuated by the locking and releasing
mechanism, and each locking box has

The principal source of supply is the

Give fools their gold AMI kDaves their

Let fortunes bubbles rise and fall;
Who sows field or trains flower,
Or plants a tree, is more than all
For he who blesses most is bIest;
And God and man shall own his worth,
Who tolls to leave as his bequest
An added beauty to the earth.

The time of harvest shall be given;
The flower shall bloom, the fruit shall

CHEAP KID GLOVES The cheapest
kid gloves in trade are made from the
skins of kids and lambs that are born
dead. The reason they wear out so
quickly and tear so easily is because
they have no elasticity. These dead
skins are called schmachen kid and
the gloves retail at 81 or less. To a
judge of gloves the difference between
a schmachen and kid is as plain
as the difference between a gingham
and linen shirt. Some of the heavy
gloves sold for kid are made of colt
skin

Buy at Home.

A travelling grocer Of a Chicago firm
called on one of Stanton county pros
porous farmers the other day, says the
Stanton Democrat, and after showing
all his samples of groceries and telling
in laudable terms how much could be
saved by buying of the Chicago man,
all of which our man took in without
g word of dlssension, the groceryman
chuckled to himself at having nailed his
victim, and with an air of confidence
asked our man how much of each he
would want. The Stanton county man
told him without hesitation, mot a
q penny's WORTH This seemed to
take the breath out of Mr.. Grocery
man, and in faltering voice he in
quired what the reason was, which
was promptly given thus: 81 depend
on Stanton and Stanton county for my
living, and it is my duty to patronize
our home trade first. If 1 should be
ont of money at any time our
merchants carry my account for year
without murmur. What do we have to
do with Chicago, and what does Chi
cego care for us except that they want
our money? Supposing we should buy
oCr goods of Chicago men, the conse-
quences would be we would have no
cities, no towns, no schools, no rail-
roads, no nothing; and if we wanted
pound of coffee we could go to Chicago
after 1t. No; you can go back to Chi
cage and shall stand by those who
stand by me-" The grocer took his
grip and left and is probably still roll
ing the thought in his mind that the
farmer gave him some good common
sense. 1t is too bad that people let
themselves be duped by these travel
ing grocers, but they do, nevertheless,
and thousands of dollars are sent to
Chicago every year in that way. Re-
ceive the travelling grocer kindly and
bid him a friendly farewell, but let
him keep his goods.

USE AND ABUSE OF GLOVES. When
putting gloves on begin by buttoning
the second button; then, when but
toned to the top, you can easily fasten
the first button without tearing the
kid. Never remove the gloves by
pulling the fingers, but by drawing
the part covering the wrist over the
hand and leave them thus wrong side
out for some time before turning them
to their proper shape Always lay
gloves engthwise-never roll them
