The House will to-morrow re
ceive Mr. Springer's leport of the
hill he introduced last month, to
enable the Territories of Arizona,
Idaho a id Wyoming to quidii'y
for statehood. Mr. Sp.inger says
that if the bill fails of passage
duiTig this session, the awiul
cit.lt lies upon tlia souls of the
republican majority in the Senate.
It is not proposed by the bill tq
admit the three new states so
promptly as the five slates propos
ed in the Omnibus bill wh'ch pass
ed the House, butic provides that
thev can be in the Union in time
to voto in tho presidential election
of 1S02. The passage of all of Mr.
Springer's proposed measures
would add eight stars to the flag,
and maka sixteen nuve senators
ana leu more rep.'eseniaiives. 11
would lokvu only three territories,
unless the Oklahoma bill passes,
- -I'tah, Indian Territoiy and
asl;a. It is exiiected that Mr.
Springer will next turn his eagle
eye ou Alaska. The delegates f. om
the territories interested are par
tlcub.rly enthusiastic. The popu
lation of Wyoming is estimated by
Delegate Carey at 120,000;- that of
Arizona by Delegate Smith at H'i,
000; that of Idaho by Delegate
Dubois at i:J0,000. The ideu of
, , I TI
gi t ing 83,000 people two senators
would seem a trifle ausurb, but
Springer snys that their inter
ests demand it and Mr. Springer
is a politician and ought to know.
The new method ot counting the
votes of presidential electors cost
only a liltlo over hloW for print

Mr. Wanamaker has purchased

The rainfall for the month was

where slight deficiencies were re
ported. Excess of precipitation
was also reported in the lower lake
region, the northe -u portion of the
upper lake region, and from Da
kota and western Minnesota south
ward to Rip Grande valley. The
rainfall in Texas and southern
portion of the south Atlantic
states ranges frcrn two to four

month. In the northern portion of
the eastern Gulf states, notheru
Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky,

During the montli of January
the weather has been decidedly
warmer than usual in the winter
wheat states of the central valleys,
aud the goueral weather conditions
have been favorable, probably re
sulling in a slight improvement
of crop conditions as comparoil
with January 1888. The ground
rernaius bare, however, in the
freater portions of the wheat re
gion, except in sonthern of Mich.
aod the northern portions of Indi
ana and Ohio, where from one to
three inches of snow is reported
Although a dehcioncy ot run-
fall reported from the Pacific coast
states for the month ot January,
the previous heavy rains make the
seasonal weather conditions, as a
whole, favorable for crops in that
section.

Speaking ov hens, loads me taw
remark, in the fust place, that
hens, thus fur, are a suokcess.
Tha are doaiestick, uaiiI occasion

This iz owing tew their not be

blame for this.

Laying oggs in tho linn's best
grip.
A hen that kant lay eggs in laid
out.
One egg iz konsidered a fail-
day's work for a hen. i hav herd
ov their doing heller, but i don't
want a hen ov mine tew do it it
iz apt tew hurt their constitution
and by laws, and thus impair their
filter worth.
The poet sez, bntil'ully:
"Siniiboildy hit' s'mle our blew ben!
I wish they'd let her be ;
She used lew lay 2 eys a day,
And Sundays she'd lay II."

Tho best time tew sett a hen, is

Thare aint no proflit in keeping
a hen for its eggs, if it laze less

Hens are very long-lived, if they
lout contract the thrut disense,
thare is a grate ineiiny gous tew
pot, evry year, bi this tnelar

I kant tell exactly how tew pick
out a good hen, but, as a general
thing, tho long-eoretl ones nre
kounted the best.
The one-legged ones, i kno,
are the lest apt tew skratch up a
garden.
Fgg packed in equal parts ov
salt and lime water, with the other

years, if they are not disturbed.
Fresh beefsteak is good for hens;
