CANALS.
Yellowstone River Would Admit of
.. Immense Dithches. @

4 Immense Dithches.
The Yellowstone river has sufficient
fall to admit of immense irrigating
canals being cut from it, and this has
along the up-river, says the Rocky
Mountain Husbandman. The one
farthest down the river is, if we re-
member correctly, taken out at Rapids,
about 35 miles above Billings. Below
this point, owing to the treacherous
nature of the banks, no attempt has
been made at ditching, but we are of
the opinion that while the ditch from
the lower river may be a little more
expensive, it may be done. Abutment
dams may be constructed on each side
of the river to hold it in it's proper
channel and the water taken in a
flume set on piles at a safe distance
from the stream. 1t would require
capital or a cooperative effort but it
would not cost anything like what is
proposed that the Dearborn and Flat
Greek canal, under construction by
the arid land commission, shall cost.
It is proposed that this waterway will
cost 100000 and we are certain a
les sum would construct a canal on
the Yellowstone. Lumber and cedars
for piling may be had at the minimum
| price at Sand Point on the Northern
Pacific railroad and q flume may be
built almost as cheap as a canal. 1t
| will at least be cheap enough to war
rant the undertaking, for in, the i'm
mediate future such streams as the
Yellowstone will not be allowed to
pour continuously idle to the e but
will be turned aside to water the fer.
tile valley that skirts its banks.

"Mizzuri's" web-foot natives

With geysers, lakes and drives;
Chicago first made sausage
OF sausage-makers' wives.
And Boston, once the hot-bed
OF he Revolution scenes,
Has since become notorious
For culture and for beans.
And so throughout the Union,
Most every State you name,
Has broke out" somewhere in the
past,
And won a little fame.
But put them all together,
Then take a chunk of chalk,
And mark it down that Kansas
Will skin them in a walk.
hain-makers used to run the sky,
To wet the crops and flowers;
And Kansas was the authoress
OF artificial showers.
For twas a freaky Kansan,
Did Natures laws disdain;
With cannon punctured Kansas

To get a little rain.
1t is generally conceded, #
By those who dress precise,
That as maker of the fashions,
Gay Paris cuts the ice.
But Kansas-ever eager
To give the earth a shock;
Sent Simpson down to Congress,
Without a single sock.
When Women-suffrage hOWlers A.

They found a husky leader,
In Mary Ellen Lease.
And where did Mary spring from,
When she struck. out to roam?
OF course it was in Kansas
She left her happy home. 1

And then the Legislature
Sent up the righteous shout;
We'll Leavenworth has gone too far,
Well have to cut it out.

when to Begin Wearing Glasses.

The adoption of suitable glasses should
not be neglected after any of the above
symptoms are noticed. Nothing is
gained by waiting, and much may be
lost. We lose, in the first place, great
deal of amusement and instruction
from the necessity of giving up our
evening reading, avoiding small print,
resting our eyes, and neglecting fine
work of all kinds. In the beginning
these Interruptions in our ways of life
are not SO serious and frequent as to
give much annoyance; but as the defect
increases, they become of Importance.
In the second place and of greater mo-
ment, in the risk we run of straining
and fatiguing the accommodative power
of the eyes, and so causing weak sight.
In these days of weak sight and eye
glasses, there need he no fear that the
adoption of glasses will be interpreted
as a confession of old age. Old sight
comes very early-much earlier than
forty in most cases. Frequently, i'll
thelath, nervous debility. constant and
severe use of the vision in fine work
or night work, will develop the synp-
toms of old sight as early as the age OF
twenty-five or thirty. Nothing. how
ever, is gained by postponement OF
wearing spectacles; the eyes are not
made stronger, and are likely to be made

j. X. Russell was then introduced for
the address of the day, announcing for
his subject, School Literature" and
beginning his address with an interest
ing discussion on What Kind of Liter
allure Shall We Give the Children 2"
Mr.. Russell holds that the compass of
the children's erudition, at the first.
should not be too great, nor is vast
amount of reading on any one subject,
to the exclusion of others, advisable, as
row the child's view.
Gradual Transition.
His idea is a gradual transition from
one period to a higher. letting the child
branch out as it grows older. absorbing
such subjects as it's own interest dictates.
But first it should be given the right
start, with the right models.
Let the children. he says, read fairy
tales, as the childish mind naturally
gropes for the fanciful in fiction; it in
turn, once the habit for reading Is es-
tablished, will of it's own accord. read
with avidity such branches as light his
tory, tales of adventure, travel, ETC., and
later on reading of higher plane.
In this way is it's mind broadened, and
a liking for literature made lasting.
