Few Random squibs that Seem to Point
in One Direction.

Speaking of the agricultural classes,
who. the president of the agricultural
college says, are staggering under the
load of our present financial system,
we might call his attention to the
following in the Lyndon Current Re-
mark: Charles WittemOre shipped
l23 head of fine steers last week, hit
ting the top of market at = per
hundred. BY actual figures the same
number of pounds brought him 81 200
more than they would at the same
time year ago."
PlutUcratic farmer item from the
Fairview Enterprise: -. n. Lyman
Is in a situation to take life easy. He
has hundreds of broad acres located
along the Delaware and plenty of
stock cattle and hOgs. He boards at
the Fairview House and goes down
to the farm occasionally to look after
his interests"
According to the Beloit Times Mr..
Silly, a quiet farmer of Mitchell
county, has just threshed 1900 BUSH
els of good wheat. At present prices
it is worth 81 800. Deducting the ex-
penses of threshing and hauling TO
market, it leaves 81 800 for the crop.
From his other crops and live stock
he will realize a net profit of at least
500 for the year, thus making $1,000
on his $50 acre farm this year. That
beats banking or any other business
almost KlOndyke gold mine.
Charley Mcintosh settled in Jeffer-
son county five years ago, renter,
with $3.50 in money. Last spring
he bought farm of 120 acres. which
he sold last week for $500. He has
the money in bank and owns fifty
head of cattle, ten head of horses, a
bunch of hogs, 1000 bushels of corn
and farm machinery to run three
teams. In Kansas prosperity comes
by the corn furrOw route.
Three of the war horses of the Pop
ulist party In Smith county, one of
them a candidate for office, were
holding a caucus on the sidewalk,
says the Pioneer, discussing things
in general and Guessing" the good
times that struck the country. One
of them finally brought the argument
to a close by asserting with plenti-
full sprinkling of oaths. that the Re-
publican party was id lucky and
always happened to get into power
just before a general era of prosperity
and always went out of business just
before an era of general calamity.

good drainage. On such a site foot or
is inches of dry straw may be laid on
rails and poles. On this the ice is packed
closely. making solid cube of it, five,
six or seven feet high and covering as
large an area as the needs of the family
require. Outside of the cube of ice build
a fence with an interval of foot or IS
inches between it and the ice. Pack this
space with the best packing material at

or whatever seems to be cheapest and

In determining the size of the pile
count 40 squares feet to the ton. Calcu-
late how many tons will probably be re-
quired, and then double the amount, TO
allow the larger percentage Of melting
that usually attends methods of packing
as primitive as those described. When
this is done, the work is done, And if
the selection of a site has been right,
with good attention to the details herein
indicated, there will be ice in the pile
late in the following fall.
1t is not intended to recommend the
plan here outlined to those who feel
themselves able to do better. A cheap
but more permanent icehouse than this
should be attached to every farmhouse.
It need not be an expensive building at
all The points to be looked after are
drainage, fairly well protected site for
the building and plenty of good, non
conducting material on all sides of the
ice, with provisions for ventilation be-
tween the roof and the packing material
above it. If the farmer can do this, he
should do it. But if he can do no better
he may we'll adopt the simpler method

What self-renunciation and heroic purpose

The American women of to-day have the

constitutions are not rugged or able to en-

peculiar to their sex, and the constant drain
upon their vitality makes them chronic in
