OKLAHOMA AND INDIAN T"1. K It 114Jlt Y
l>r. lferkor of Cloud Chk>( was held
lip and robbed near Seger Sunday
night, by two men whu stepped out of
the brush and ordered him to hold up
his bands. The dotfbor started to ruu
hut when -one of the wen shot at him
oe called a halt. They went through
his pookvts and secured $735 in cash,
which the doctor had saved to buy
lumber to build a house.
The trial of K. V. Spencer, late pres-
ident of the O oounty bunk, for receiv-
ing deposits after the bank was known
to be insolvent, wus concluded Wed-
nesday night. After the jury hud
heard the evidence ou behalf of the
territory, the defense demurred to the
•evidence, which demurer was sus-
tained by the court, ami the defend-
ant discharged. Roberts and Brown -
lee and Major Whittinghill were at-
torneys for the defense.
There is more money in ten acres of
Kaffir corn nnd one hundred hcus with

ceries und clothing and pay your taxes
and the interest on the mortgage if
you have one, and the men can have
the rest of the farm to experiment and
speculate on. liens and Katiir corn
lever fail in Oklahoma.
All the excitement alnmt gold finds
<s not confined to Cleveland county
alone, since there is hardly a township
within a range of fifty miles in Okla-
homa or the Indian territory contigu-
ous to that county but is Wing pros-
pected for precious metals. At Paoli,
in the Chickasaw country, south of
Purcell a few miles, it is known that
there is silver and gold in paying quan-
tities and a company is now being
formed to work the property.
Recently Peter Neilson caino from
London to Oklahoma nnd at the end of
ninety days made application for di-
vorce from his wife. Edith Neilson.
The papers in the case were served on
the defendant by means of a registered
letter sent to her address in London.
She consulted the legal department of
the British government on the sub
jeet, with the result that it was held
that the divorce laws of Oklahoma
would not be respected in the queen's
dominion. An elaborate opinion on
the matter was forwarded to the judge
of the trial court in Oklahoma. As
several wealthy English people have
secured divorces in Oklahoma, the
position taken by the Knglish govern-
ment is important to them.
Tuesday the Garfield county commis-
sioners let the oontraet for a 85,000
court house ou the following terms:
A yearly rental of SI,000 in county
warrants, for a period of four years,
and at the expiration of that time the
building to be turned over to (iurtield
county. Such business men as Ed
llockaday Co., Logau and Kennedy,
Sam Keeganand Entrikenand Graham
are in the company, and work will
soon be commenced. This important
step of the county commissioners
meets with the hearty approval of the
citir.ens and taxpayers, who have been
paying exactly this rent for a year and
previous to that time, more. At the
end of four years they will have a good
and substantial brick and stone build-
ing.
How often one hears a man say, 440h!
he's a brave man!" and, upon inquiry
into the nature of the bravery it is in-
variably a case of dauntlessness. Now
bravery and dauntlessness, though
having a similar meauing, when ap-
plied in an ordinary sense, are entirely
different when properly construed.
Not very long since a man who is well
known in Oklahoma was conneeted
with the arrests of numerous outlaws,
and was spoken of as a brave man from
the fact that he placed himself in bodi-
ly danger while fulfilling his duty n>
deputy marshal. This "brave man" in
some way was suspicioned as being im-
plicated in the escape of
from jail, and was placed under bond
The time came arouud fjf him to re-
ceive a trial, when lo! this "bravery"
deserted him, and his bondsmen are at
present what is commonly called left.
Was this the act of a brave man? His
conduct at present proves him to be an
arrent coward. The man who is com-
monly termed brave is the dauntlass
man; he is of such a nature that the
presence of fear is unknown to him—
he places himself in a position of bodi-
ly danger without flinching; he feels
no anxiety from the fact that he is
fearless. A brave man is one who is
not afraid to acknowledge his faults,
for none of us are infallible, and who
is prepared at all times to face danger
either physically or morally, in order
to perform his duty as a man. The hp-
pression is at present left upon the
minds of all sound-thinking people
who hear of a man jumping his bond
no matter how brav© that man has
been pictured—is that he could never
have been so. for the moment he thinks
there is danger he deserts his friends
and retires ignominiously into seclu
sion.

THE LADIE8' HOME JOURNAL FOR 1305
In a dainty booklet printed iu light
blue, salmon-pink and gray tones—a
splendid illustration of the beauties of
art applied to printing—The Ladies
Home Journal announces some of its
leading literary and artistic features
for 1896. There will be a series of pa-
pers upon the domestic and social side
of Washington by Oeneral A. W. Gree-
ly, U. S. A.; another by Ex-President
Harrison, telling of "This Country ol
Ours"; a third by Mary Anderson de
Navarro, who writes of her stage ex-
periences, her struggles for recogni-
tion and artistic triumphs, with a sup-
plemental article telling of her life
and surroundings to-day. In a lightei
vein, Mary E. Wilkins will present a
series of "Neighborhood Types" papen
and pen pictures of quaint and famil-
iar personages—New Englanders; and
Jerome K. Jerome will reflect old En
gland life in a number of "Stories of
the Town"—stories of London—in his
inimitable, crisp style. "William the
Conqueror," Rudyard Kipling's most
fascinating romance, is also among
the features for 181)0, and Julia Magru*
der's delightful serial, 4,The Violet/
will continue through a considerable
portion of the year. Besides these twe
popular authors there will be short
stories by Bret IIarte, Lilian Bell, Ian
Maclaren, Sophie Swett, Frank R.
Stockton. Sarah Orne Jewett, R. C. V.
Meyers, Will N llarben, Caroline Les-
lie Field, Jane Austin (posthumous)
nnd other prominent writers, .lames
Whitcomb Riley will contribute a num-
ber of poems, varied in theme and
treatment. In its musical offerings
the Journal will be unusually replete.
Among the best things promised is a
minuet by Paderewski, the famous
pianist; a waltz by John Philip Sousa,
the "March King"; compositions by
Sir Arthur Sullivan, composes of "Pin-
afore." "Mikano," etc.; Reginald de
Koven. composer of "Robin Hood,"

Clementine de Yere Sapio, Mrs. Ham- j
ilton Mott, Miss Maud Powell, Benja-
min Davies. Charles Adams' Thomas j
a'Becket, Frederic Peakes. George
Chadwick and others. Artistically the
Journal gives rich promise, and during
the next year will present several i
groups of Kate Greenaway's bonnie
little people; Charles Dana Gibson's !
best work on new lines and some of !
Albert Lynch's newest creations. W. j

MATTERS OF INTEREST TO
.AGRICULTURISTS.
Som« l|>to-I>at« 11 In La About Cultiva-
tion of the Soil and Yields Thereof—
Horticulture, Viticulture and Flori-
culture* _
HETHER manure
should be ferment-
ed, that is, piled up
lu a heap and al-
lowed to heat, in
the meanwhile
being turned and
kept moist enough
to prevent a vo-
latilization of am-
monia, has been
one of long con-
troversy. Experiments by Professor
Voalker of the Royal Agricul-
tural society of England, and of
others, have Bhown that the fer-
mentation of manure, when properly
conducted, results In its decomposition,
and under proper conditions does not
Involve loss of ammonia, although car-
bonic acid, or a part of the organic
matter, is lost. The materlnl thus lost
has a relation to the physical condition
of soils and the decomposition a rela-
tion to the warmth of the soil and a
relation to the chemical reactions in
the minerals of the soil. The question,
then, Is whether this loss is compen-
sated by a slightly more soluble man-
ure at the time of Its application.
On sandy soils this loss of organic
matter, It would appear, is a serious
matter, for it is already deficient in it
and the water-holding capacity that it
brings to the soil is of value to it.
In soils already overrich in organic
matter and inclined to retain moisture
too much—and these are soils where
decomposition is likely to be slight—
another question will be presented.
Again, fermentation, unless carefully
conducted, will result in loss of the
nitrogen or ammonia of manure. It
may be said that gardeners who seek
to produce very early crops generally
advocate the fermentation of manure,
because It will give them an earlier
start, through its greater amount of
available nutritive or soluble materials
and because the manure can be spread
much more evenly and be commingled
with the soil very much more thorough-
ly.
Chinch Huge In Oklahoma.
At the Oklahoma Experiment Station
Farm, at Stillwater, as well as in many
other parts of the territory, chinch
bugs were nearly or quite as injurious
to crops In the summer and fall as was
the dry weather. Experiments at the
Station and throughout the territory as
well as in different states, in causing
the destruction of the chinch bugs by
the introduction of disease among them,
were generally unsuccessful. The con-
ditions under which the disease rapidly
spreads are not fully known, but It Is
evident that dry weather is unfavorable
to such spread. With present knowledge
It is unwise to rely on the introduction
of disease as an effective method of de-
stroying these destructive insects. It
has been proved entirely possible to
prevent the passage of the insects from
one field to another, except at the pair-
ing season, when they fly freely, by a
system of barriers and traps. Furrows
with steep sides of finely pulverized
earth, or lines of coal tar on a well
smoothed surface, have been found en-
tirely effective. The insects will collect
In holes In the furrows or at the side
of the coal tar line in vast numbers and
b« destroyed by hot water or a kerosene
mixture. Something can be done to
make the passage of the insects difilcult
by keeping the corn, sorghum and sim-
ilar crops as distant as may be from
the smaller grain and millet crops.
Green Manuring.—A report from the
New Jersey Station gives the plan of
an experiment for the improvement of
light lands by the use of crimson clover
and cow peas and a statement regard-
ing the method of cultivating cow peas
on a larger scale in New Jersey, Cow
peas, following crimson clover, yielded
at the rate of 14,400 pounds of green
material per acre. The vines con-
tained 2,278.1 pounds of organic dry
matter, 70.6 pounds of nitrogen, 17.3
pounds of phosphoric acid and 50.4
pounds of potash. The roots on one
acre weighed only 1,080 pounds, and
contained 295.2 pounds of organic dry
matter, 4.2 pounds of nitrogen, 1.5
pounds of phosphoric acid and 4.4
pounds of potash per acre. The roots
and vines grown on an acre contained a
total of 34.8 pounds of nitrogen, 18.8
pounds of phosphoric acid and 54.8
pounds of potash. The nitrogen in the
vines is equivalent to that contained in
437<£ pounds of nitrate of soda and is
valued at about $11.

Propagating Raspberries.—The prop-
er way to propagate the black cap rasp-
berry is by sticking the long, snake-
like tips 111 the soil and growing a new
plant from these. If the soil has been
well cultivated and the plant is very
vigorous a plant can be made not only
from the tip of the main stem, but from
most of the branches. So soon as they
are well rooted the new plants should
be separated from the old stem. The
wind blowing the bush loosens the
branches where they are rooted in the
soil and uproots them. This is pretty
sure to happen if the plant is left with
these numerous rooted tips in the
ground over winter. Freezing and
thawing is hard enough on any new
plant, but is especially so to one at-
tached to another above it and con-
stantly pulling it upward. As the 6oil
is loosened when thawed, up flies the
branch with its rooted tip, and a short
time in spring sunshine destroys its
vitality.—Ex.
The Eronamlral few.
A« all successful breeders realize, th«
time la past when we can wholly rely
upon the pedigree as a guide in select-
ing the animals whose characteristics
we wish to perpetuate In our flocks or
herds. Not that the law of heredity is
any less true than formerly, but be-
cause we are coming to appreciate that
an animal parent is more likely to
transmit Its own characteristics rath-
er than those of some ancestors. So,
Instead of studying the pedigree and
the pedigree only, the breeder of today
will study in Its connection the individ-
uality, the type and general conforma-
tion of the animal with special refer-
ence to their economy of production,
appreciating the fact that more and
more will the "cost of production" be
the standpoint from which all animals
kept for production be Judged. Apply-
ing this principle to dairy cattle, the
question Is raised, What sort of a cow
Is the most economical and therefore
the best cow? That cow is the most
profitable which will produce a pound of
butter fat the most economically, and
although It Is conceded that there is
more difference in the Individuals of
the same breeds than there is in the dif-
ferent breeds, that breed which con-
tains the greatest proportion of most
economical cows Is the best breed.
In order for a cow to produce a pound
of butter fat economically (which
should be the standard by which all
dairy cows should be Judged), she must
be able to consume a large amount of
coarse fodder, which, of necessity, will
always be grown In large quan-
tities by every farmer and dairy-
man. All of these coarse foods
contain the same Ingredients found in
the grains and concentrated by-prod-
ucts, but not in the same proportion,
and for this reason a cow is obliged to
eat 60 pounds of corn stalks to get the
amount of nutriment which she would
obtain from a few pounds of corn meal
and bran for example. Hence It fol-
lows that If an animal can consume
enough roughage, whose intrinsic val-
ue Is a very few cents, and get from it
the same amount of digestive nutrients
that would be obtained in eight pounds
of highly concentrated food which is
intrinsically worth that many cents or
more, she will be, by far, more profita-
ble than one whose limited capacity
will allow her to take but a few pounds
of roughage and the main part of whose
ration must be highly concentrated and
expensive.
Considering the general type of the
Holstein breed, is it too much to say
that as a breed it contains a greater
proportion of cows capable, on ac-
count of their large storage capacities,
of making butter cheaper than any oth-
er breed? I was very much interested
in looking over the results obtained at
the Minnesota Experiment Station from
a herd of 23 cows composed of nearly
all breeds and their grades, to find that
In a year's trial the cow that produced
the most butter was a high-grade Hol-
stein and that the next greatest amount
was produced by a registered Holstein,
the two making 494 and 453 pounds re-
spectively, at an average cost per
pound of 8.06 cents and 9.06 cents. Of
course it is unfair to draw any conclu-
sions from so few figures, but they cer-
tainly serve to indicate that the large,
roomy Holstein, properly handled, has
before her a future as a large and
economical butter producer.—H. Hay-
ward in Journal of Agriculture.
Smutty Corn and Steers.
There is scarcely a year that there
Is not more or less smutty corn. We
would be pleased to have the views and
experience of feeders on this subject in
the Farmers' Review. Having fed
thousands of steers in twenty-five years
successfully, without losing a steer
from this smut; we tasted it to know its
flavor; not using narcotics, or spirits,
we found it had the flavor of cornmeal,
dry ground. Hence we stacked the en-
tire season's crop and let It sweat. We
feared spontaneous combustion, but the
wind changed daily, and cooled the
stack to the windward, and thus pre-
vented spontaneous combustion.
Stacks, one rod wide at the base, two
rods long, ten feet high, setting stover
at an angle of forty-five degrees, like
a roof, built at one-half pitch. It saved
dry, sweet and clean. Last season we
fed no husked corn in the ear, with very
little hay, thus reducing cost, buying no
ear corn. The average steer's weight
was less than in other years. The pro-
fit equal, or nearly so, because no ear
corn was bought. They were fully ma-
ture, fine, fat and fleshy.

High-Headed Orchards.—Every year
a great deal of fruit is lost by heavy
winds blowing it from the trees. This is
before it has attained full size. This is
partly due to the fact that trees are
generally headed too high, a relic of
times when the high-branched tree wa«
cut up until a team could walk under it
to plow and cultivate. If the orchard is
headed low there will be little growth
under its branch, which when loaded
with fruit will frequently be bent down
until they touch the earth. The fruit
on low trees is easily gathered from the
ground or with a short step ladder. If
there were no other reason for low
heads in trees this of ease in gathering \
the fruit would be sufficient to make It
always advisable. No kind of stock |
should be allowed in orchards except |
pigs. Cattle and horses will eat botlf '
leaves, fruit and branches as high as j
they can reach, and to get the fruit out l
of the way of being eaten by stock
seems to be the reason for the high
pruning and heading of many old or- i
chards.—American Cultivator.
