Washington A Farmer.

History does not tell much OF George
Washington M farmer, but an old yir-
ginia almanac OF 1880 says: General
Washington possesses 10000 acres OF
land where he lives. He employees $50
hands and keeps u plows going all the
year when the weather win permit. In
1851 he sowcd 600 bushels Of oats, 100
acres OF wheat. and planted large
quantity OF corn and potatoes. BE
planted $50 acres In turnips and 500 acres
In field peas and beans. In 1885 be
killed $50 hogs which weighed s,5OO
pounds and made this pork into bacon
for family use

He couIdn 4 Go.

A visiting citizen called at THE NEWS
Office the other day and began his little
speech: "My voice is for war, we should
wipe Spain off the maps of the universe
and leave her name and space blank
among nations. We can do it and we
should do IL some morning before the
hour for fashionable breakfast"
He was bristling all over for fight.
His eyes shone in brightness like pol
ished bayonets In the noontime sun.
His fingers were extended like cannon
pointing through the embrasures of a
parapet. His feet were as restless as
the feet of infantrymen eager for the
command ~ forward March, and.
when not talking, his lips were as active
as the lips of the war horse champing
the bit as he snuffs the battle from afar.
But when we asked him If he was
ready TO enlist, to shoulder his musket
and march to Cuba, he dropped his
head and said 'Oh, couldn't go. My
business affairs and family relations are
such couldn't leave" And when we
suggested then that he, like Artemas
Ward, would contribute his wife's re-
lations to the war he left the Office
without promise to call again or a
courteous good morning.

connendabie More.

A farmers institute was organized at
Groyeland early In the present winter,
which has been holding weekly meet
lngs, and has evoked much interest
among the farmers In this locality.
In their meetings they discuss many
subjects Of practical import to farm
ers In this particular part Of the coun-
try, such as irrigation Of crops, time
and methods Of watering, manner OF
building hcadgates and water boxes,
watering OF orchards. raising and mark.
citing small fruits, selection Of seed for
crops, dairying, caring for milch-cows,
marketing dairy products, etc.
Persons visiting these meetings from
other districts recognizing the force of
such an educational factor In a COM
munity, have organized similar socie-
ties In their home districts and are do
Ing good practical work.
One noticeable feature about these
meetings Is that their purpose does not
seem TO tend 20 politics nor mercantile
affairs. The association shows no dis
position 10 try to better the condition
Of the farmers by working against any
business which Is already established.
when members agitate such lines OF
work they are given o fair hearing
and then the subject is invariably
turned down and the development OF
new resources or new industries Is con-
sidercd, or inquiry 10 contained for bet
ter and more perfect methods OF con-
Quoting the pursuits already under
taken.
Now, this Is move In the right d.
rection. When farmers realize that
ueternai vigilance is the price OF sue
cess that they must push their own
ayocation and keep up TO date, then
they will find less time to grumbie
about hard times and political parties,
and win have fewer criticisms about
the prices charged by railroads and
merchants.
THE NEWS made mention sometime
ago OF movement being made to start
cooperative creamery in the vicinity
of Blackfoot and we understand the
matter is being vigorously pushed BY
the institute through Its several com
mittees who are canvassing the coun'
try thoroughly and making careful
investigation OF the whole situation
The work has been kept In hands o
conservative men, and the proposed
plan for conducting the business seem'
to be very commendeble.

Snip NafHe.
Death came out OF the black nights deep,
And steered for battleship's side;
But never man Of the sailor clan
Looked on the Deathman's ride.
The Kansas lad and the Hampshire boy,
And the boy from Tennessee,
with never fear thar death was near,
Swung into eternity.
Nor flag. nor shot, nor battle cry.
Nor strain OF the nations air.
Broke into the gloom Of the sailors doom,
Nor yet priestly prayer.
There looks face from far.away home,
with eye bent on the sea,
For the Hampshire Jack who'll not come bach

No victory crowned the day,
But nation weeps, and the dark sea keeps
Her dead beneath tho bay
