THE RESERVATION.
Closely Watched by People
In The East.

The Nez Perce Reservation, in
Northern Idaho, which will be
opened to homeatead settlement
about May the first next, cotains
a great deal of remarkably fine
farming land, adapted for small
grains, for orchards and for graz
ing. Itresembles, in soil and eli
matte conditions the famous
Palouse country, in Washington
which adjoins it on the north.
After three or four years of effort
in slow-going, dilatory way,
characteristic with its dealings
with all Indians, the govern.
ment has at last completed the
allottments of land in severalty
to the Nez Perces living on the
reservation, and now finds that
more than four fifths of the total
area of the reservation remains
to be restored to the public do
main and to be thrown open to
homesteaders under special act
of Congress. There will unoubt-
edly be rush for these lands,
and in few days from the date
fixed for receiving filings at the
land office at Lewiston every
100 acre tract not too mountain
GUS or broken for cultivation
will be taken. The Spokane
bureau of immigration has tax
en- the matter up and is urging
the railroads having lines in the
vicinity of the reservation to ad-
vertise the the opning literally
and thus attract settlers from
the East. There will be homes
for about FIVE thousand people
on the lands to be thrown open tc
settlers. No harm would be
done if twice or thrice this mum
Der could be induced by the rail
roads to go out and look at the
handsome rolling ,prairies O
northern Idaho. Those thai
might not be able to file or
reservation lands would hnd ex
cellent openings for settlement

they went upon the lightly tim

Southern Outrages.

We are tired of the phrases
"Sou thern horror s" and "More
Southern barbarities." etc, which
we have noticed from the press
pretty generally since the recent
outbreak at New Orleans. We
are sorry, too. that some of our
brethren of the Press, are SO mar
row as to have forgotten, or never
known that we live in one COM
mon country into which the sec
tions of more than a quarter of a
century ago have been merged
and thereby lost tall sectional diff
ferences, with the exceptions of a
few News paper editors and poll
itical stump speakers,

when a mob OF strikers in Chic

Packing Butter for Winter.

Good butter may be safely packed to
keep six months or more if the right
way is taken. It used to be done years
ago, when it was the custom to keep
the surplus product for sale then, there
being no winter dairy to supply the
demand. The butter must be naturally
good and sweet, and worked quite free
from buttermilk by thorough washing.
There need be no fear that this will
hurt the butter, for it cannot take any
thing from it, the fat being wholly in
soluble in water, and only the butter
milk will be washed out of it. which it
must be, or it will be detriinent to
the butter, as producing changes Of the
fat into volatile acids, by which the
butter is made strong and finally ran

glazed jars or sweet, clean white oak or
spruce tubs, painted or vanished on
the outside. The tubs are soaked in
brine, then scalded, then washed in
two or three waters, then rubbed with
fine salt inside, and while wet the but

pressed down so as to leave no vacan-

The Little Busy Bee.

Bookkeeping in connection with
farming is one of its most paying
branches. 1t involves no direct cost,

There Is always a ready market fol
honey, SO what can the farmer of today
do better than to keep a few swarms OF
bees? With the modern conveniences,
such as bee walls and smokers, there is
no danger of being stung.
Do not start on a large scale, but lei

four or six swarms the first season
You may lose some skips, but you must
expect loss. Bees will die as we'll az

as more honey can be got from them
than any other. Use one-pound sec

can place them on the table and not

Storing Squashes and Onions.

Onion sets intended for next winter
can be easily kept in good condition by
spreading them in thin layers on the
floor of the barn or garnet. Should
they become frozen during the winter,
do not disturb them, as handling them
is detrimental. It does not injure them
to freeze if not thawed very suddenly.
Squashes for winter can be kept in
the cellar on shelves, and, as some
varities keep we'll during the winter
they should be plentiful for use during
the cold season. The cellar should be
dark, an d the squashes handled care
fully, so as not to injure them, and they
should have small spaces between
them.

Obituary.

Mrs. Amanda Anderson, the rose Of
humanity, with that beautiful loving
face that always made faces brighten
and hearts tighten, whose face so many
loved to see has passed away in silence.
Her loving face bears a gentle smile,
as if she had passed away in perfect
happiness. She leaves a husband,
parents, brother, sister and friends to
mourn her death. She was in the
spring time of life, and had enjoyed
but six weeks of married life. Like
the beautiful rose she has faded, and
she now lies sleeping in a cold and
silent grave. May all unite in giving
many thanks to Mr.. and Mrs. Chas.
Anderson for the kindness shown her
and for the motherly care she gave her
during her illness. May there be many
who will sympathize with her hus-
band and parents. BY A FRIEND.

Unfruitful Apple Orchards.

As rule when orchards remain for
wears without bearing fruit the cause is
lack of mineral plant food. This kind
of fertilizer is necessary to maintain
the health fulness of foliage, without
which the blossoms either fail to set
fruit or it drops off before it begins to
form seeds. On all fruit trees there is
usually a great dropping of fruit about
this time. Seeds require potash, and
so also does the fruit. A dressing OF
400 or 500 pounds of potash salts OF
their equivalent in hardwood ashes per
acre will restore productiveness to many
orchards that without it will never
nj oduce a crop worth harvesting.
