A Few Things That Should be Done
Before the Year Closes.

Before the Year Closes.
Everyone admits that the outlook
for better times is bright, that the
country is in good circumstances and
that the people ae posperous. It is
true that there has been little pro-
gress in the past year and also
equally true that there was plenty
room for it, Ormsby county is jus:
about where she started year ago
and this condition is alone the MAX
ing of tn people.
This small valley is one of the
best in the State and has hundred
rssourcee that need development, ami
has plenty of cash on hand to do the
work. From time to time the Appeal
has called attention TO what coull
be done, but the work has never been
one is awaiting the action of his
neighbor before step is taken il
any direction.
One gentleman stated yesterday thar
if any good scheme is advanced that
the people would demand two tu enty-
dollar pieces for everyone expended,
which is about true. and it is this
kind Of feeling that is keeping the cits
and county IN the sane old tread
We all know that several thousand
acres Of land can he placed under cul-
ti<fation by a little work and some
expenditure Of cash. IN and AROUND

for a score of families to make q fine

silver Advancing.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-The recent
advance in the price of Silver calls at
tention to the increasing scarcity of
the floating supply of the metal.
Bar silver was quoted to day at
81 70 cents an ounce. While Mexi-
can dollars ranged from As cents to
48 "a.
These rates, it was said, were mere
ly nominal, and any CRATE demand for
bars would cause an advance OF tn :
price.
Conditions in the silver market are
now such that the consumer waits on
the producer.

A Sermon on SANDER.

Against slander there is no defense.
1t starts with word-with a smile. 1t
is pestilence walking in the darkness,
spreading contagion far and wide; it is
the heart searching danger of the dark
assassin; it is the poisoned arrow whose
wounds are incurable; it is the mortal
sting OF the deadly adder; murder is its
sport. The man who breaks into my
house OF meets me on the street and robs
me OF my property, does me an injury;
he stops me on my way to wealth, he
strips me Of my hard earned savings, in
wolves me in difficulty and brings my
family to penury and want. But the in
jury he does me can be repaired. Indus
try and economy may bring me into cir
cnmstanceS Of ease and affluence. The
man who, coming at the midnight hour,
tires my dwelling, does me an injury-he
burns my roof my pillow, my raiment,
my very shelter from the storm and tenn
pest; but the injury he does me can be
repaired. The storm my beat upon me
but charity will give me food to eat and
ralment to put on, will timely assist in
raising new roof over the ashes of the
old, and / shall again sit by my freside
and taste the sweets of home. But the
man who circulates false reports con
cerning my character; who exposes every
action of my life which my be presented
to my disadvantages; who goes first to
this, then to that individual, tells them
he is very tender of my reputation, he
enjoins upon them the strictest secrecy,
and then fills their ears with hearsays
and rumors, and what is worse, leaves
them to dwell upon the hints and sug-
gestion of his own busy Imagination
the man who thus ''filches' from me my
good name does me an injury which nei-
ther industry nor charity not time itself
can repair.-Exchange

Along the Eastern Slope.

The following article is taken from the
Investors Guide, published at Mason
City, Iowa:
Ihe eastern slope of the Rocky noun
tains IN the state of Colorado, covers an
area OF 80 miles in length north and
south, and extends far out into the limit
less plains. This is the region which
first attracted the attention of energetic
white settlers. 1t was the home of the
first placer miners in Colorado, and at
the present time embraces the principal
centers of population. About two thirds
OF the population of the state live on the
eastern slope. 1t is threaded by great
systems OF irrigating canals, and tens of
thousands OF thrifty farmers and ranch
men are living witnesses of the wonder
ful agricultural resources of the district.
Tbs bountiful soil, aided by sunshine
and irrigation, seems capable of meeting
every demand. Nowhere in the repub-
lie is there truer paradise for farmers
or more certain rewards for the inteli-
gent pursuit of agriculture in all of It's
departments. Potatoes, rye, oats, bar
ley, alfalfa and all kinds of vegetables
yield enormously, while portions of the
area are specially adapted for the cul-
ture of fruit. The vast cattle ranges on
tue eastern edge of the slope have for
third of century supplied the markets
of Chicago and the Missouri river, and
are now contributing largely to the rap
idly growing market at Denver.
The Colorado potato is known wher-
.eysr the tuber is sold in the United
Siatcs, and in the potato belt, by means
of intensive farming it has been made to
yield most fabulous returns to the hand
of industry. South of Denver, in the
region known as the Divide, the condi-
tions are in some respects even more
favorable than in the Greeley district
Artificial irrigation is not always neces-
sary on the Divide north and east of
Palmer Lake. The currents of air from
the Gulf of Mexico and the high noun
tain peaks meet over the Divide and the
warmer current is forced to give up its
moisture. As a result, the farmers are
able to raise large crops without the aid
of irrigation, and the potato industry of
the Divide district is one of the import
ant elements in the agricultural wealth
of the state.
The distance from Denver to the top
of the Divide is about % miles. The
lines OF the Denver & Rio Grande, Colo
RADIO Il Southern and Santa Fe traverse
the region, the Rocky mountains stand
ing out in close proximity on one side
and the great plains on the other. The
many farms along the route indicate the
prosperity of their owners by the general
appearance of thrift. The dairy interest
has been prominently developed, as the
nearness of market makes the keeping
of cows very profitable. The farmers
are also stock raisers and their herds
may be seen on the ranges. Convent
ence to market also makes poultry profit
able. Corn, beans, rye, wheat and oats
are raised with successful he requires
for the, sustenance of his focks in the
winter

which they will erect a warehouse for

duce of all kinds. Mr. Epler informs us
that the store building will probably be
enlarged by building an addition to the
