Letter From AIva Bohonon.

DIXON, Ills, Mar. %, '01.
Mr.. EDITOR. As / have a little leisure
will employ il in letting my friends know
how and where ! am. / am working on a
milk farm near Dixon, Lee Co. Dixon is a
city of 10000 population at the junction of
the &. a n. W. r. r., double track road,
and the Ills Central which runs north and
south. Dixon is situated on both banks
of Rock river, fine stream which, about
u miles farther down, the government is
tapping for a feeder for the Henipin
canal Dixon has large manufacturing in
terests for Western city Of its size. There
are two large shoe factories, piano faoto-
ry, buggy and wagon factory, pillow fac
tory where several kinds of agricultural
implements are manufactured. The Anglo
Swiss Condensing Milk factory, whose
plant cost 100000, has pay roll of over
5000 each month and daily handles the
product of 5000 cows. There is also
large brewery whose capacity to produce is
much larger than mine is to consume. An
electric road from Rockford to Sterling
has been surveyed and is one of the possi-
bilities OF the near future. Two large
schools are located here, the Steinmann
Institute and the Northern Illinois Nor
NAL school that averaged an attendance of
over 100 pupils for the winter term. Frost
is all out and bicycles have been seen on
the streets for a month. Any of my old
friends who desire to hear from me direct
as above. Yours,

"Bill3' has a prize COW, and he casually
remarked the other day that the gentle
creature gave milk that was so nearly pure
cream that when the knife had been run
around the pan in which it had stood "A
hours the entire contents could be lifted
out at once with the SKINNER. After the
bystanders had revived, "Jep.n cooked his
head, squinted one eye and modestly inn
parted the information that he had
pretty good COW, too, though not, of
course, as good as "Bill's.n He said he
could truthfully aver that his milk had
such a body that the cat could jump across
the pan without leaving a dent on the
surface. 1t took camphor to bring the
crowd to, and then ''Jep." remarked that
he must go home and milk, as il was time. !

Congressman Ball viii Confer With
Local Committee Regarding 1t.
CHAIRMAN BUTTONS COMING VISIT.
Program Not Definitely Settled--Pros-
poets for Appropriation Brieht--As
to Some Criticism.

Congressman Thomas H. Ball arrived In
the city last night from his home In Hunts
willie lnd registered at the Rice hotel. TO
representative OF The Post, who saw him
during the evening, he stated that he was
Ia the city for two or three days to con
fer with the executive committee Of the
local deep water committee with reference
TO the Forthcoming visit to Texas OF Chair
man Burton OF the rivers and harbors com
mittee Of the National congress, and the
plan Of the campaign before the coming
session to further the matter of obtain
ing substantial recognition Of the Buffalo
bayou ship channel project. At the same
time MFR. Ball wishes to give opportunity
TO tAose who have personal business with
the departments at Washington TO confer
with him In regard thereto.
"The program with reference TO MFR. Bur
toms visit" said Mr.. Ball, us not yet
definitely settled. OF course, as he has
been down Buffalo bayou on two occa-
sions in the past-once during the visit Of
the whole committee last June--it Is not
his purpose TO further inspect the cham
mel | hope however to he able to give
him an opportunity to see more Of the city
itself. its industries and its great com
merclal interests, than he has ever seen
before.
"The projects indicated by Mr.. Burton
to be looked over are the Trinity river,
the Sabine lake channel and improvements
Ia the locality OF Beaumont Orange. Port
Arthur and Sabine pass; the mouth Of the
BRACES and Arkansas PASS. According to
my last adyices, Mr.. Burton expects to
reach Dallas on November IS and GO out
Of the state at beaumont on the night
of the 25th. 1t will be almost impossible,
under the circumstances, to see all Of
these projects properly in that time. For
Instance, he suggests only one day for
Arkansas pass when special arrangements
will be necessary TO enable him to make
that point In two days. He also calculates
70 put IN only one day around Beaumont
ana Orange. stating that he has already
seen Port ArthuD and Sabine pass In
addition, invitations have been extended By
Red river interests. Jefferson and Corpus
| Christi but SO far the invitations have not
been accepted Every effort Is being made
to secure more time for the Texas trip.
What are the prospects for an appro-
| prlatlon to carry on the Buffalo bayou
| work. Mr.. Ball was asked.
/ 1 have no doubt" was the reply, 'thRt
! We viii be able to secure fairly liberal
appropriation for the work during the
! forthcoming session of congress. In the
bill which failed last fall 100000 was
