him your pity. He is living to accu-
mulate wealth and losing the best of
life.
'But what shall I write about?
"Write about, why write about
anything relating to agriculture that
interests you. You will be an uncom-
mon man if what interests you inter-
ests no one else. Somewhere are
thoughts, wishes and desires answer

men who will appreciate your eff

Encourage the young people to
write. Impress upon them the fact
that when they write they exert an
influence upon thousands of others.
When conscious of this they will be
careful of this influence. Life will
mean more to them and they will

How to Make an Agricultural Paper Valu-
oh1n

ing an opportunity to cultivate the
mind and formulate plans for 1897
are close at hand. The days of bust
ness depression through which we
have passed have made it necessary
TO practice strict economy and en-
ploy only the best methods. The times
have emphasized the fact that it is
intelligent, well directed, labor that
counts. No farmer, not even an eX-
pert knows all there is to know
about a single branch of his business.
Each year new combinations of
animal and plant food are discover
ed, that cost less and give larger re-
turns than those previously used.
Each year some labor saving device
or method of culture is introduced
that saves time or increases the
yield.
'"rhe farmer who would keep up
with his fellows must be posted and
avail himself of all the chances that
experimenters and inventors place
within his reach. The experiment
stations, the grange, the farmers
club and the institute are all excel
lent agents to impart this informal
ton, but there is one that eXcels
them and that is a good agricultural
paper. Those who read carefully and
profit by the suggestions given often
save enough in one day by following
the plan outlined in the paper, in
some special article, to pay the sub
scription price for a year. The next
week another article just as helpful
may appear and the amount saved is
clear profit.
MANY do not secure the benefits
they should from their agricultural
paper because they fail to act on the
advice given. They read an article
outlining methods which their judg-
ment tells them they should adopt.
They resolve to try the better way
but when time for action comes fail
to do so, and the end of the year
finds them in the same old ruts.
While this class of readers undoubt-
eddy get full value for the money
paid for their papers, they are not
alive to their own interests. They
do not appreciate their opportunities
and will never acquire a competency.
or become leaders in their profess
sion. They fail to do as we'll as they
know and this, alas, is the fault of
us all.
eff we always did the best we
knew, how much more satisfaction
we should get out of life. The value
of an agricultural paper to each in
dividual rather depends not upon the
amount of helpful advice and sugges-
tons given but upon the amount ap-
propriated and applied. Always bea-
this in mind. You can secure ten
times the benefit from your agricul-
tural paper that you have in the
past, if you make an effort to do so.

of a year articles appear from

in different localities and on differ

James King, the murdered man. n
Instantly the windows were thrown
open and as Casey and Corey stepped
out On to the @@platform. Corey showed
himself a coward, for his knees shook
and lie could scarcely stand while the
moose was being adjusted about his neck.
Casey, however, was game to the last,
and announced that he was an innocent
man. In another instant, and while the
funeral of King was still in full sight,
the rope was cut, and the two murderers

Mr.. Noble says that the committee was
the natural outgrowth of the times. AS
an institution 1t was purely pro bono
public, and nothing but heroic measures
would have met the emergency which
existed. The Chairman of the committee
was William T.. Coleman, an eminently
respectable and intelligent man, and one
of the largest merchants in the city. The
other mem bers of the committee were
prominent citizens, and the tie which
bound them was simply stern determi-
nation to stamp out the flames of murder
| and lawlessness which were becoming
more and more fierce under the corrupt
government.

the indirect support of every law-abiding
citizen of the community and the direct
support of an army of courageous men,

conducted their proceedings and investi-
cations with the utmost secrecy.
But when that great triangle on the
barracks sounded it's warning note every
man who was in the great army con-
trolled by the committee dropped every
hing and reported promptly for duty.
There were different signals, which only
the ipersons concerned understood, but
when it became apparent that general
movement like that on the Jail was or
dered nearly every store in the city was
promptly closed, and practically oil bust
ness was suspended. Carpenters. masons
and men of all trades stopped what they
were doing and made straight for the
barracks. Teamsters left their wagons
standing on the streets, and mounting
their horses went on the gallop to Saora-
mento street, for it was of these men that
the cavalry was composed Meetings
of the lawless element were prom pity
broken up, and scores of tough charao-
tiers were warned to leave the country
forthwith. Such invitations were com.
monty accepted very promptly as soon as
1T became apparent that the committee
meant business. and very stern and ex-
peditious kind of business at that.
