The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1895-11-02


There viii be no Growing, no nelshing,
no believing. no ccoing. All viii be az
peace.
Mixed farming and stock growing
viii be the principal industries The
milkmaids Will dress picturesqueiy in
beautiful white ariatanchemlsette and
duck trousers. They viii also wear kip
boots run down Fl the heel Dr. Walker
SAYS their idea is 10 get some Italian
cows and raise Italian cream for the
Oswsgo market.
No one can feel more interest IN this
great enterprise than the low, coarse
man farmer who has not been able to
make farming pay.
Dr. Walker thinks that much may re
saved by blowing cut the contents CT
hen eggs for kitchen use and then pre-
serving the shells for use al Eastertide.
She has many such schemes for practical
economy.
She is greatly worried at present over
the question Of whether a sawbuck
should be admitted 10 the wood shed and
Will submit it TO her chorus Of shep-
herdesses 1 think that these questions
of propriety viii gradually give place
to those Of diet and the food supply.
The chief agriculrurist has already
planted a row Of powdered rhubar5 30
IS to have earlier pies than any Of the
neighbors. Most Of the vegetable garden
is planted TO sweet peas. An old bed Of
Johnnie Jumps-up, or whatever the
plural of that word may be, has been
torn ont by the roots and the place satU-
rated with boiling water.
n. B.-PopcoTn VIII not be planted.
Dr.. Walkers first act Of ownership on
taking charge Of the farm and tGcking
III the edges Of the mortgage so that it
would cover the entire place was to take
OFF her smoking jacket and cut down
an old pawpaw tree that had stood
there for years. When she got it down,
the stump locked as though a beaver
had gnawed il of.
This particular farm was chosen be-
cause il IS in summer time euameled
with daisies and great stately rocks COW
cred with soft gray moss TO break up the
monotony and farming tools Of the agri-
culturist.
Hens will be taught to provide worms
for themselves, and spirit OF indie
pendence among ell the fowls will be
fostered and encouraged. BOOSTERS who
have been in the habit Of calling pablo
attention TO large fat bug and then
eating it with vulgar JOY viii get their
necls rang.
Unhappy married men will be per
mitted to look over the fence and rail or
their hard lot ON Tuesdays and Fridays.
Socials and sociables for the spread Of
the gospel in New Jersey viii be held
On the first Monday Of the month, and
married men who have led IN exemplary
life will be permitted to put their
money through a crack in the fence.
Women who are living unhappily
with their husbands are invited TO come
to the farm and pull stumps for their
board
A severe penalty will be enforced
against any member who may carry on
a correspondence with outside people OF
an antagonistic sex. Such a one so Of
Tending shall on conviction be required
TO break steers during the daytime and
answer the burelar alarm OF nights.
Two sets Of books viii be kept for
the farm--one for the receipts and one
for the expenditures These viii be kept
by two different members through the
year, each in ignorance OF the others
books. and at the end of the year the one
having the largest total viii receive a
pair OF neatly embroidered suspenders.
This plan Will be a revelation 70 book
keepers, for it not only stimulates the
accountant, but would seem 20 aim
deathblow at collision and consequent
fraud.
Should this venture prove successful
and solve that great question Of how
to make the farm pay" graduates from
this Institution will be- employed, il is
thought, by unsuccessful farmers every
where. The coming farmland, there
fore, will be q ray Of forkod sunlight
upon the path of the husbandman. The
wife will no longer elope with the farm
hand, and outdoor life will win many
young men from the card table and the
flowing bowl
1t is to be hoped for many reasons
that DR.. Walker may succeed in this
enterprise and that the earnest woman
