Nebra ska Farmer Gives il as Rea-
son for Failure to Prove Up
On Claim

Glenwood Springs, Colo.-The
advent of girl baby in the family
of Elmer L. Brown of Harvard,
Neb., a suburb of Omaha, prevent
ed the happy father from making
final proof on a timber and stone
claim in Routt county, which was
advertised for final proof last jan
uary, and this is given by him in
an affidavit filed yesterday in the
u. S. land Office here as reason
for his neglect to comply with the
law at that time. He asks per-
mission from the general land Office
to again advertise the claim so
that he may obtain a patent on it..
The document is one of the most
novel ever filed in the local land

office and is nicely bound in a
handsome white cover, with long
streamer of white ribbon suspended
from it.
In his affidavit Brown says: Il
was not present at the date set, for
the reason that while en- route from
my home for the purpose OF being
present at the land office to submit
final proof was stopped and re-
quired to Immediately return home
because of the serious Hines Of my
wife. For that reason and none
other failed to make proof in ac-
cordance with the advertisement
notice."
The afiiant further says the ILL
ness of his wife was such as to de-
mand his immediate return and
presence by her bedside for the
purpose of comforting her, and
that in fact and in truth, her seri-
Gus illness permits affiant to attach
hereto exhibit A, which is made
part and parcel of this affidavit. "

storing seed Potatoes.

We store our potatoes for seed in a
cool cellar, built with hollow walls, SO
that it will stand two weeks at 10 de-
grees below zero without making us feel
uneasy about their freezing. If the
weather continues that cold too long,
we cover with blankets A potato does
not have to freeze to spoil it for seed.
If kept too near the freezing point too
long the vitality will be SO weakened
that it will fail to grow, and if it grows
at all the stalk will be weak and puny
and never amount to anything. We
store in crates for the convenience Of
looking after them. In the spring,
when in danger of sprousing, we jostle
them around in a box with q slat bot
tom that holds bushel and empty
them back into the crate. This is done
as often as necessary to keep the
sprouts back. We can run 100 bushels
through this sprouting process In a

Pennsylvania and the OIeo Law.
State Master w. II. Hill and his CO..
adjutors in the Pennsylvania state
grange are keeping an eye on cleo leg
islation. At the present session of
congress the oleomargarine law Of 1886
will be amended SO as to take from
line fifteen Of section Of that act the
word knowingly" The act now reads,
Every person who knowingly sells
oleomargarine," etc, shall be
guilty" etc. The amendment proposes
no change except to strike out the word
knowingly" 1t is said that many VIC
lators of the law still escape punish
ment by pleading that they do not
knowingly SELL The subordinate
oranges of Pennsylvania are asked to
pass resolutions favoring the amend
ment so that violators may no longer
escape punishment on this pretext.
Why would 1t not be well for the sub
ordinate oranges everywhere to pass
like resolutions and forward copies to
their congressman?

As cows advance in the period of lac

When to Skim.
Skim before milk gets thick. Even
when it begins to taste sour cream
rising is suspended, for souring is not
to hasten and perfect cream rising, but
to retard and stop it altogether, as
milk on calculating loads the little
cream globules down with cheese, and
they cannot rise.
The Farm Separator.
The use of the separator in the dairy
lessons very materially the labor Of
caring for the milk, besides securing
all of the cream Using the separator

Rinsing milk pals and pans with
cold water is all right, but follow the
rinsing with thorough scalding in
pure water. That puts an end to the
disease germs. They cannot stand hot
water. Do not use any cloths about
your buttermaking that are not as

to send up to her house at once, as she
wanted it for dinner. AS sool as the
delivery wagon returned, off 1t went
again to deliver this woman's little

If that was the way business was done
and was told By the butcher that 1t
was; that the lady IN question was go

but that society would taboo her If she
were detected in carrying home her
purchase. The farmer concluded that
the margin was not much out Of the
