balance on my grindstone. | turn with

this balance not only makes the stone
turn easier. but also makes it run
much steadier. To make the balance,

10 inches long. Had blacksmith punch

of size to fit on grindStOne Shaft, on
end opposite treadle. 1t should be put
on so that long end of iron would be
opposite the little crank that treadle is
fastened to. so that when treadle is
being pressed down ~ the foot the
long end Will be going up. and when
the treadle is going up the weight Of
iron will be going down and help raise

Ouack Grass on Sandy Soil.

1t is very difficult to rid sandy soil
pest, the Canada thistle, because where
there is no hard subsoil the roots run
too deeply for the plow to bring them
up. The sandy soil is also so porous
and has so little vegetable mould that
the quack roots do not die quickly,
even if not allowed to send up shoots.
But On land wholly destitute of vage-
table matter, it is hardly worth while
to get rid of quack. 1t will keep a sod
and prevent the sand from blowing,
which is difficult to do with any OF the
cultivated grasses or with clover.

Good Roads Pay.

Conditions such as recently existed III
a small town in New Jersey, twelve
miles from Philadelphia, form a fit
ting object lesson of the profit of good
roads. In consequence of the bad
roads the wagon makers t~hereaDout
constructed four-hOrSe vehicles to car
~ fifty-five bushel baskets as a maxi
mum load, which was regarded as
heavy hauling. Real estate had gone
a-begging for years; there was no pos
sible market for it. 1t had been inn
possible to settle up estates a no
purchaser could be found for the land.
But a few years ago the people of the
community woke up. The town issued
$4,000 worth of bonds and applied the
proceeds to better rOadwayS. AS Il re-
suit New Jersey wagon makers of he
vicinity of Philadelphia are making
two-horse vehicles to carry, not fifty
five buShel baskets. but loads made
up from ninety TO 125 bushel baskets,
and still the loads are not regarded as
heavy. Two horses are able to do more
work than four horses, and with much
mor ease.
On the old roads two mon and four
horses. with Il wagon weighing 1,JC0
pounds. could take two and Il half tons
of produce to market and bring back
an equal amount of fertilizer, making
one trip a day. Now, on the good
roads. one maj with two horses, and Il

four trips to market. bringing back an

). naturalist says taat in captivity
elephants always stand up when they
sleep, but when in the jungle, their own
land and home, they lie down. The
reason given for the difference between
the elephant in captivity and freedom
is that the elephant never acquires
complete confidence in his keepers, and
always longs for liberty.

Plant Trees.

If YOU happen to live on the prairie
where YOU have 10 wOodlot, suppose
YOU make the experiment of planting
a few trees. Some yards even are bare
of trees. Shade is grateful in the hot
weather and you W it to your wife
and children to at once beautify and
cool the yard with trees. Get Il few
thrifty young naples and set them
along the road in front of the house.
Put in one good white elm where it
will shade the yard and porch eight
ming is not so partial to the elm as to
them to protect them, and in a few
years YOU will be surprised at the
amount of pleasure you will all get
out of it.
Then, if you have a spare sandy,
low-lyinG corner that is not good for
much else. you might put it to good
use by planting a lot of cottonwoods
there. You won't miss the ground and
In a few years the value Of the wood
for light fuel will more than repay
your trouble.
Of course you will not forget the i'm
p%ortance Of putting out some fruit
trees. Three or four dollars will give
you enough cherry. apple and crab
trees to supply your family needs in
the course of three or four years: and
by judicious repetition of the process
it will not be long before YOU will have
a thrifty orchard which will prove to
be the most profitable spot on the farm.
Select a gentle southern slope if you
have one, and if not, do the next best
thing.

Japan and It's Tea Trade.

The Home and Colonial Mail" Of
January | has the following:
According to advices from Yokoha-
ma the Japanese are striving to devel-
OPP their tea trade in every possible di-
rection A committee Of Japanese tea
merchants has applied to the govern
ment for a subsidy of 1,750,000 yen to
promote the tea trade. 1t Is proposed
to spread the expenditure Of this sum
over ten years in maintaining two rep
resentatives both in India and in Cey-
lon to study the processes there adopt
ed in growing and preparing tea, and
in advertising Japan teas in the United
States and elsewhere According to
another account it is proposed that the
expenditure Of the total sum shall be
spread over five years only. 1t is very
fattering to India and Ceylon growers
that the Chinese and Japanese should
wish to initiate their methods, but it is
not at all desirable that Indian and
Ceyfon planters should teach the Chi
nese how to compete with them.

ABOUT THAT CONTRACT.
What Supt. Humbargar Says In Hia
School Paper.

School and Home: We are sorry
that any one should mistake the mo-
tive which prompts certain members
of the city school board to vote for a
continuation of the textbook contract.
We do not believe that any member
was "bribed" or influenced BY the
book companies. While it is difficult
at first sight, to understand why they
should want to pay 100 per cent more
for the same grade of books, yet it
must be remembered that the said
members have not yet seen the state
books, and are not satisfied that they
are equal to the ones now in use. The
present contract, which in my opinion
is not worth the paper it is written
on, was entered into in good faith, for
the purpose Of protecting the schools
from any possibility of being forced
to take inferior textbooks.

The Jury in the case Of the state VS..
Charles Huffman was out about
eight minutes at noon and returned a
verdict of not guilty and added that
the complaint "was without probable
cause This finding was asked for
by Hultzman's attorneys, c. S. Craw-
ford and c. 4. Rugh, and the render
ing of it compels A. B. Seelye, the
complaining witness, to pay all the
costs. about $3.50, within 80 days.
The entire amount at stake was $2.10,
Seelye claiming that 50 had been re-
mitted to Huffman for some medi-
cine, 30 per cent of which was CON-
mission, Huffman claimed to have
paid it and the jury so found. Seelye
had had Huffman arrested twice last
winter on a charge of embezzling $54
but he was acquitted aud brought suit
against Seelye for $1,000 damages for
false Imprisonment. This case is
now pending.
Many people considered that the
bringing Of a criminal charge on a
third complaint for so small sum
was in the nature Of persecution and
wondered that County Attorney Kane
allowed the case to be brought. 1t
certainly looked to the public as if it
were small procedure.
However, as Mr.. Seelye is to pay
the costs and the per capita Of town
is to be increased by the distribution
of the sum among witnesses and
Jurors it will be borne more philo-
sophlcally. Mr.. Huffman takes it
that way and feels well over his
victory.

But He Was Innocent.

The ABILENE DAILY REFLECTOR
seems to be highly elated over the
discharge Of the man Rawson from
custody, fearing that his conviction
might in some way rebound to the
glory of Sheriff Robson who captured
him over in Saline county couple Of
weeks ago Herington Times.
The REFLECTOR is always glad to
see an innocent man set free from
custody--is the Times eager to see an
innocent man put in jailP This
paper is always foremost in giving
the officers credit for what they do
but it makes us tired to see Repub-
lican paper soldering over Popu-
list sheriff and praising him as an
officer to the extent of a quarter
column for capture in which the
man arrested was innocent, where
the sheriff had nothing to do with
finding him anyhow and where the
county will pay over 5000 costs for
nothing. Give honor when it is due
and to whom it is due.
