The Iowa Homestead.

Good farming, based on sound
principles of science and practice, was
never more important or profitable
than now. The Homestead, an agri-
cultural and live stock paper publish
ed every Thursday at, Des Moines,
Iowa, is the best exponent of good
farming. The Homestead is edited by
farmers who live upon and operate
their ownf arms right here in the mid
die west; so that their teachings are
thoroughly practical. 1t has depart
ments devoted to horticultural, poul-
try, sheep, dairy, veterinary, laws
affecting farmers, current events,
house and home, Sunday school les
son, editorial comment, live farm Cos
sip, etc., and its contributors include
able and successful farmers and exper-
iment station experts throughout the
west. Many farmers in this vicinity
are already subscribers for the Home
stead and all should be; as whatever
adds to- the practical knowledge of the
farmers increases the value of land
and enhances the prosperity of the
community. We take subscriptions
for this splendid farm paper at this
Office; and, by special arrangement
with the publisher, can give you low
subscription rate for it in connection
with The Republican.

Mrs. II. II. Crosser visited with her
daughter, Mrs. Arthur McNutt, before
returning to her home in ON aha. =
The 'Botna River was mad last week
on Thursday morning A treacherous
current of black water was creeping
across the road on both sides of the
George Spencer bridge, just beyond
Creamery Hill. The Hamlin mail man
paused at the edge of the water, screwed
up his courage and plunged in. All
went well until he reached the middle
OF the sullen stream where the gliSten.
ing back of a large fish was seen above
the water as it went swimming leisure!
ly across the road. The horses saw
the fish and began to shy off to the
edge of the grade. The mail carrier
realized his danger, opened the doors
OF his wagon and began to urge the
team. AT this juncture that Internal
fish swan right beneath the horses
heads, turned ilip-llop and slapped
the water with his tail. At this the
team snorted, squatted and tried to
turn fop-Hip, then the carrier began
TO think that he would have to turn
llip-Hop; his grit came unscrewed and
ne began to whip, boiler, yell, squall
and brawl until the horses began to
think that he was in worse posi-
ton than the fish and went on across
the road. Danger approaches us in
very strange ways sometimes and it
meets us when we least expect it. We
cannot be too watchful.
After hearty dinner l
Into deep sleep fell
And in my dreams | reyeled high
With all the hays of hell.
The virtuous thoughts had all fled
And like a common beast
moved about. my soul was dead,
My wish, another feast.
