Soap and Cleanliness.

Constantinople is the dirtiest city
in the world, the only street cleaners
being the starving dogs, cats and rats;
but the people do use soap. Last
year there were imported into that
city $500 tons of soap selling from
20 to 60 cents a cake. Practically all
the soap of Constantinople arrives
from the Island of Mitylene, which
makes $4,000 tons year from it,

official attention. The twenty-five
fence posts taken probably represent
ed timber, logs, lumber, ETC., aggrega-
ting in their natural state scarcely
less than 100 cents or 1000 mills in
value. Here was the man to be made
an example of. Complaint has long
been made that timber thieves have
been devastating state lands and that
all that was demanded of them was a
money penalty. Every one of them,
though liable to imprisonment, is still
at large and in no case has criminal
process been resorted to. 1t is time
an example were made as warning
to evil doors. We may imagine the
gravity of the conference between
state officials when the settlers helm
Gus offense in the matter of the twen-
ty-two fence posts was brought to
their notice. Justice was reflected in
their stern and solemn demeanor.
At the close of their deliberations the
ukase was at once issued. The majes-
ty of affronted law must be vindicat-
ed. The courts were appealed to and
a charge of grand larcency in the Sc
cond degree penitentiary offence
was preferred against the man who
had committed the theft of the
twenty-five fence posts.
subsequently, when the unfortu-
nate mans plight aroused the sympa-
thy of his neighbors, Auditor Iverson
was appealedto. He was unrelenting.
The law, he said, must take it's course.
This stealing of the states timber
must be put stop to. Naturally all
interested were impressed with the
changed attitude of the: auditors
office. All except one unreconstruct-
ed person, who strange to say, sympa-
thized with the settler. To'the state
auditors threat against timber thiey-
es he was heard contumaciously to
say to his head, swell, you certainly
have chosen ah-l of a place to begin"
A friend of mine was doing some
business the other day in the office OF
the board of control, which as every
one knows, has supervision of all state
institutions and constitutes perhaps
the most importantd department OF the

ernor's private secretary, came in,

who are making special efforts to

On the subject of efficiency of pro-
per tillage for a semi-arid country,
he simply reiterated what has often
been often expressed in this depart
ment of the News, the only differ
ence being that Mr.. Wheeler's edu-
cational training enabled him to ex-
press it more clearly and concisely.
He also spoke of the marvels of in
tellegent seed selection and breed
ing, and opened our eyes to the
necessity of care in selecting and
breeding seeds. In short the Pro-
lessor made many feiends during
his short stay and Meade county
farmers will be pleased to see him
again as soon as his work will per-
nit.
The next speeches and discussions
were upon the subject of Russian
thistles-a topic which will be treat
ed in the next issue.

growers here. In that he recon.
mended ridging corn at the last cul.
tivation to favor thorough roofing o.
brace roots.
Mr.. Judd spoke on "Why no,
more milo" He advocated the US,
of the drawf variety of maize fol
the reason that while yielding as
much grain as the others its leave:
and stocks made better fodder
While on the whole Mr.. Judd pre-.
fered kaffir corn to maize, he be.
lieves that with either crop the main
is thorough and timely cultivation.
By careful planting and cultivation
Mr.. Judd has succeeded IN raising
some excellent crops of maize and
kafhr corn; and he gives 1t as his ex.
perience that to raise such crops one
must not SOW to thick nor let weeds
get start.
The'papers given by Mr.. Geo.
Allen on EARNS horses" and James
Wysong on "Improving the Wheat
Crop" appears elsewhere in full so
do need reviewing here.
Mr.. W. W. Cockins, who spoke
on the subject of alfalfa, said that
the first alfalfa seed ever used in
Meade county was brought here
from Salt Lake City in 1884 and
sown on the Kilbourne bottom of
the Crooked L ranch. The seed
caught well and to the present time
produces profitable crops of hay
and seed. Mr.. Cockins laid down
no hard and fast rules for the plant
ing of alfalfa, but gives it as his
opinion that previous to sowing,
grass should be we'll subdued and
the ground plowed deep. In as
much as the present season has
prospects which appear favorable
for alfalfa sowing, Mr., Cockins in
tends to seed one hundred acres or
more.
Mr.. Wheeler from Manhattan,
the next speaker, began by empha-
sizing the need OF more thorough
and scientific cultivation. He said
that while not intimately acquainted
with the environments of this local
ity, he knew enough to realize the
vital Importance of the careful con-
servatlon of moisture. He said he
would be pleased to hear from all

Tho Profit Of Raising Horses
On The Farm.

10 tue OmCeTS ana mem OerS
of The Meade County Farmers
Association l am fully alive to
the honor of being invited to
read paper before this associa-
tion and keenly sensitive to the
fact that the average member of
this association knows just as
much about this subject as l do.
verify believe that the most
highly appreciated feature of
this. paper will be it's brevity.
Most all we'll regulated and
equipped farm should be provid-
ed with few good brood mares,
not to many just enough that by
working the brood mares a part
of the year you will have ample
horses to do all your work at all
times with an extra team or two
for emergencies, always being
provided with a horse to take the
place of one disabled.
Now where the profit comes
in, is by making the mare do
enough work to pay for her keep
out side of raising her colt, but
you must not 60 to the extreme
in this matter or you will spoil
the colt and you will find that
you had better been working a
gelding.
With regards to the colt him
self ! should not know how to
get any profit out of him until
he is past two years old when he
ought to do enough to pay for
his keep but should not be kept
at it too steadily nor two severe
ly as to greatly retard his
growth.
But we'll fed and we'll develop
ed two year old colt will perform
considerable work with benefit
to himself and profit to his own
err, but like a fourteen year old
boy should not be required to
make a full hand at heavy work.
Thus putting the colt at work
at home and making him earn
his keep and much more as he
advances IN age by the time he
is of age to go to market he has
paid for himself and perhaps has
placed a balance on his side OF
the ledger.
The farmer who has a few
good we'll broken horses to turn
off each year always finds him
self provided with some good
handy money in very conven-
lent time.
Now with regard to the selec-
ton of the brood mare l should
select them of as near of the
type of the horse that 1 wanted
to produce as circumstances
will permit: always avoiding rad
zeal crosses.
l should always avoid wasp
wasted mares and those with
bad legs and feet as we'll as those
with bad eyes.
A mare to be good breeder
must be of feminine appearance.
A course masculine looking mare
is never good producer. And
ever rember that the disposition
of the mare is one of her high
est qualifications.
A thing to ever be born in
mind is that there is no profit
in starving a colt. To rear a
good colt you must have a good
foundation and build upon that
foundation with plenty of good
feed, good care and just as
much love and affection as you
can spare from your family or
sweetheart as the case may be.

place at the home Of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. H. Mathew on College Hill
Sunday evening Feb. 8 when Rev.
Lester Thompson united in holy
bonds Of matrimony their only
daughter Miss Allie and Calvin o.
Ellis. 1t was a wedding that her
many friends had looked forward
to with pleasure but still it took
them by surprise as they were not
expecting it fill next month.
The bride was becomingly at
tired in a gray travelling suit the
groom as usual in black.
Promptly at 8 o'clock the bride
and groom attended by Miss Mil
dred Lydon as bridesmaid and
and j. w. Mathews as groomsman
entered the parlor where the
ceremony was said in the pres
ence of a limited number of rel
atives and friends.
Immediately after the congratu-
lations the guests we're ushered to
the dining room where an elabo-
rate supper awaited them.
The bride is n Of Marshall's
most charming young ladies and
will no doubt prove a good COM
panion for the man of her choice
who is the o of Stephen Ellis
and is a prosperous young farm
er OF Saline. The happy couple
received many useful and beauti-
full presents.
They left on their honeymoon
for a visit to the grooms relatives
at C~entralia, Columbia and Mexi-
co. They will be at home to their
friends after March 1st and reside
near Malta Bend.

greet the step they have taken.
