Tho Cattle Trade at Wichita,
A correspondent of tho Chicago
Pinion, writing from Wichita, pliteua
tho number of cattle that have come
over tho trail up to tho 1st at 52,008
head, as against ll,H'UI head for the
corresponding period butt year, rbowing
mi increnae thus far for the prcHcnt sea-
sou of 8,072. It would appear from the
foregoing figures that tho drive thin
year will ho larger than last year, but.
from tho beat attainable data, it •will
nob be over one-half aa large an 1 st
your. Tho drovers all atartod earlier
thin yoar than Inst, and the drovorn all
concur in Haying that thoro will not he
tnoro than half the number driven nut
of Texas that were driven laat year.
Tho bent posted eat He men do not
plaoo the entire drive for tho aeaaon at
over 100,000 bond.
Old drovers Hay that cattle never
oomo over the trail looking so well
thoy do tho present season. The ap
parent anmllnt'HH of the drive will not
make much difference in tho prioo of
hoof cattle. Home of tho drovers
thero are an many good beef oattlo
driven this year an last. Fully four-
fifths of tho cattle driven this year are
hoof cattle, andMnoat of thorn are iu
hatter condition Mian tho eattle that
were wintered in Kansas. Thin is due
to tho fact that tho range was hotter
during tlie past winter than al any
timo within tho memory of tho oldest
Texas oattlo man.

A point here is worthy of special re
mark : Where the land was rich, plaster
used, and tho season a growing oue, ho
that the olovor grew rank aud lodged
badly, the seed did not seem to suffer,
but yielded a good crop, Tho only ob
jection was tho mowing. This trouble,
however, only happened when plaster
was usod. It seemed to add vitality and
give hmdinesa to tho plant. There was
more " aubstanoo," it was thought—
certainly more seed. Tho yield was
generally from two to five bushels per
acre aud upward, depending much upon
the thickness of tho stand aud the na
ture of the season. Those who did not
spare their seed (in sowing) were the
fortunate ones. Those who had a thin
stand, an t neglected sowing their plas
ter m time, or omitted it altogether,
were among the unfortunate ones.
Tho medium clover has almost super
seded the large. Instead of pasturing
the land, it often, with the medium, 1ms
a crop taken for hay ; this is done in
time to have the field clear at the pro
per period—about the 20th of June.
Pasturing, however, seems to be best;
but it wauts to be close, which is never
an advantage to stock. Hence the
scythe is now mostly usod. Plaster, an
avoidance of tho hot sun and tho frost
nt the blossoming period, and a thick
stand, are the three requisites thnt
indispensable to success in the raising
of clover seed.

THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
fta lllntory from li* Inception to the
I*rraetit Time.
Everybody has heard and read about
the Washington monument, and nil vis
itors to the national cnpitol have seen
the unsightly and halfcomplcted struct
uro, yet many nro ignornnt of its history,
more than that it was designed ns a mon
ument to the memory of Washington and
tho design never carried out.
Tho project of erecting a monument
to General Washington is oldtr than
tho government itsolf. In August, 1783,
tho continental congress resolved that
an equestrian statuo of tho suco(s<>fnl
oornmandar should ho erected " nt the
place where tho residence of congress
shall be established,” hut nothing more
was ever done in the matter. Washing
ton died on tho 14th of Deoombor, 1709,
and ten days afterword congress ordered
"that a marble monument bo orected
by tho United States at tho city of
Washington, and that tho family of
Oenernl Washington ho requested to
permit his body to bo deposited under
it.” Tho permission was promptly
and chcerftillv accorded by tho widow,
but everybody knows that tho monu
ment was never orected, and thnt thy re
mains of Washington ntill rest at Mount
Vernon. An attempt wan mode in 1800
to aootire an Appropriation for tho mon
ument, but it failed, and in 1801 a bill
appropriating 8200,000, which passed
tlio houso, did not aeeuro tho sanction
of the senate. After that, no further
effort seoma to have been made to ful
fill the intention declared by tho gov
ernment in tho resolution passed by
congress.
After a lapse of more than thirty
years, tho monument waangniu brought
to public attention by tho voluntary no
tion of tho people, entirely independent
of their representatives in congress.
Tho Washington monument society was
founded ill 1833, with Ohiof Justice
Marshall ns president, and it appealod
to tho whole people for tho funds neo-
ossnry to undertake tho work. The
original plan was to give everybody an
opportunity to contribute, and tho
amount to ho received from any ono
porson was to bo limited to a dollar. In
threo voaiH 828,00 ' had been collected,
but tho financial collapse in 1837 then
caused tho temporary abandonment of
the enterprise. In 1845, however, it was
again undertaken by the society, and nt
tho end of two years tho amount receiv
ed had increased to 887,000, which was
donmed sufficient to warrant tho com-
monoomentof tho monument. The work
was authorized, and a sito ceded by a
resolution of congress, passed January
31, 1818. A month later tho national
monumental society was incorporated,
and the grant of a reservation of thirty
acres for the Rite was confirmed. Work
was then begun, and on the Ith of July,
1818, the corner stono was laid with ini-
pressivo ocromonics. For six years the
undertaking yvas pushed with ’ reasons
hie vigor, the obelisk in that time being
raised to a height of 170 feet. Hut tho
funds of thosooiety, amounting to 8230,-
000, were i>y that timo exhausted.
It was in 1851, or just twonty , ** lr * 0,iTO " 0 »P ,H b* 11
years ago, that tho (plan of building a
monument by popular subscription
proved a total failure. Thosooiety hav
ing tried in vain to rniso more money,
finally presented a memorial to congress,
on which a report was made by a spec
ial committee, February 22, 1855, re
commending an appropriation of $200,-
000 to oompleto tho structure. It ia
probable that the appropriation would
have been made, and the monument
long ago completed, had not troubles
arisen just at this time within tho soci
ety, which resulted in a change of man
agement. Those troubles were finally
arranged by the granting of a now char
ter, but pttblio confidence in tho society
seems to hhvo boon shaken by theso
events. Since 1854 it has been able to
add only four foot to the unfinished
shaft ; but, although it has been mani
fest for twonty years that the society
would nover bo able to finish the mon
ument, congress has not Tct taken it
in hand ami made it a national under
taking.

To Keep Eggs Over Winter.
Tho Farmer’s Adyocate, London, On
tario, recently offered a prize for the
best method of keeping eggs over win
ter. Tho first recipe given bolow took
the prize :
Whatever excludes tho air prevents
*ho decay of tho egg. What I have
found to he tho most stioces-ful method
of doing so into place a small quantity
of nnlt Imtter in the palm of tho loft
hand and turn the egg round in it, so
that ovory pore of tho shell is closed ;
then dry a sufficient quantity of bran
in an oven (be sum you have* tho bran
well dried, or it wili rust). Then pack
them with tho small ends down, a layer
of bran and another'of eggs, until your
box is full; then place in a cool, dry
place. If dono when now lai •, thoj
will retain the sweet milk and curd of a
new laid egg for at least eight or ten
months. Any oil will do, but salt but
ter never becomes rancid, and a very
small quartity of bntter will do a very
largo quntititv of eggs. To insure
freshness I rub them when gathered in
from tho nests ; then pack when there
is a sufficient quantity.

a fair though sombro ropreHentation of
what waa till lately aupposod to be the
oondition of the ocean bod. It wote
easy to show by abundant quotations
that the sounding seas were supposed
to wash beneath thoir surface the bones
of unnumbered hapless mariners, and
that the highway of nations was be
lieved to be paved with the relics of
disaster. To this picture thero was
afterward added a yet more weird fea
ture. The notion, derived from experi
ments on the eompressibi ity of air,
gained acceptance that water at great
depths was rendered so dense by press-
re that nothing could sink to bottom
a tho ocean. According to teis theory,
each substance would dose and only to
a certain point, determined iu each ease
by its specific gravity. Thus, while the
victims of a shipwreck might rest at a
few hundred feet below the surface, tho
heavier article of tho cargo would re
main at va* ions distances bolow them;
the greatest depths even the an
chor itself would never reach the ocean
floor. And thus the sea bcenmo a mau
soleum more strangely occupied than
that in which Mohammed’s ooifiu hung
suspended, mid-water being substituted
for mid-air.
Each of these couaentiona *'\aotly
tho revorso ol tact. Water is not com-
prossiblo. and does not at any known
depth hold heavy substances suspended
iu it. Holies of humanity of any sort
whatever are among the v ry rarest of
curiosities obtained iu deep-sea dredg
ing. Prof. E. S. Morse, in tho course
of a dismission on tho evolution theory,
has cited two good illustrations in proof
of the latter statement. When the
Lake of Haarlem was drained, on whose
surface tho comm roe of teu centuries
had floated aud several naval battles
taken place, no trace of man or his
works was found in the land redeemed
from the ocean. In the course of twelve
year’s dredging off the ooast of New
England, right in the track where sail
ing vessels constatly plied, oue irou
spike was the solo evidence of man’s
existen e brought up from the bottom.
The writer of this article had, however,
