For Borne time we had boon contemplating a visit to Mr. Lamb's homestead, as we had heard it highly spoken of, but not until this week did we have Tuesday of the oppor- tunity to do so. (i. It. Lamb was not at home, but his eon Hoy.

ho manages the farm in the absence of his father, was at home, and kindly showed us around. As all Mr. I.amb has a fine residence, overlooking the country for miles around. I'ho viow up tho Smoky valley is very tine. Mr.

I.amb has a large, lino burn with a warm basomont stable for his cattlo. lie has plenty of good timber shelter for his stock and plenty of timber for all the fuel ho will ever want. His farm consists of 00 acres of as tine land as can bo found anywhere in Kansas. It is on bottom land except where his buildings stand. Wo wore more particularly led to visit his place because of the irrigating plant that we understood ho had in successful operation.

We ar a great beloivor in irrigation. Mr. Lamb has sunk a well on tho river bank, and close to tho water, so that ho can got an unfailing supply of water, direct from Ihe river. In this well ho has a pump, run by a wind mill. Ho runs the water direct from the well to the land ho wishes to Irrigate, lie I 1 lie gist of the President's message, touching trusts, is this: The trusls are good things under proper governmental supervision.

No good thing has to bo supervised in order to be good. No evil thing can be good by being supervised. This is only another way of pulling tho wool over tho eyes of tho people. Whoever heard of a saloon, a gambling den, or a bawdy house, being agood thing by being supervised? The "old reliable" Kansas Farmeii is full of good reading and abundant food for thought, and we are now ab'o to oirer it to our readers at club rates with the Kntru chime Stau for for bot papors. This is vastly cheaper than being without It and it will show profits in next season's crops.

Try it and soe. LAMB. distributes the water over the land by means of trenchos. Ho is now irrigating about Iivo acres, and preparing to enlarge his operations. Of the five acres irrigatod he has one aero in grapes, young bearing vines which gave him about one Inn of grapes this year.

The vines havo been well kept, and aro fine and thrifty; lie has a fine lot black caps in good condition giving promise of a hoavy yield next season, also a largo bod of strawberries which havo been put in proper condition for tho winter. His cherry trees aro just beginning to bear, and wo never saw linrr ones. Ho raises on this ir- rigateil area a largo quantity of a'l kinds of vegetables. Of course bis fruit and vegotablo crop never fails him. Ha will have no trouble to extend his irrigating facilities ao as cover his entire farm.

We soo no reason why all tho river farmers may not plan to irrigate a certain part of all their farms, and thus bo sure of fruit, vegetables, every year. A small tract of land, highly cultivated and irrigated, is far more valuable lliiin largo farms, hastily run over, and subject to all tho draw backs of drouth, etc. Mr. Lamb's Turin is well kept. He has a fine pieco of alfalfa which gave him five cuttings this year, and ten acres of wheat.

Mr. Lamb is not en deavoring to farm on a largo scalo, but what he does, ho does well. In tho recent election Mr. Lamb was elected to the ollloo of tow nship trustee hv a handsome muioritv over young, prosperous and popujar farmer. His long residence in the county, and the fact that he is always to the Tore in every good work I makes him deservedly popular.

Asks for a Fish; Qets a Stone. Son, Papa, what is a socialist? Papa. A socialist, jniy son, is one who believes that everything ho doc6 not own should be divided one who spends a great deal of time in theory and not in practice. Enterprise Journal. When a father is instructing his little son he is morally bound to give him the best lie has in tho shop.

This, probably, Mr. Jioulslon did, yet it is hard to believe that he is as ignorant as the above statement to his little son indicates. Possibly Mr. ltoulston was trying to gauge the intelligence of the readers of the Journal and made too low. an estimate, and again it is possible that he lias not properly gagued his lish diet.

But if Mr. ltoulston was honest when ho song! to advise his little son, how unfolunate for tho child that his father did not refer him to some good dictionary for an answer to his question. Webster says: "Socialism. A theory of society which advocates a more precise, orderh, and harmonious arrangement of the social relations of mankind than has hitherto pievailed." Webster further says: "Socialist. One who advocates the doctrine of Socialism." Tho St.

Louis Daily Star, (Republican) of Sept. 211. says "In the face of lie murdei of President McKin-lov bv a cold blooded assassin, the people generally of I lie country are prono to confound Socialism with anarchy. Never a greater mistake was made and overy newspaper in the land should make haste to disabuse the minds of ihe people on this score. The creed of the anarchist is opposition to all law that of the Socialist, equality under tho law not that one individual shall be robbed of his property for divisionjamong the many but that Law sjiall not discriminate in favor of the few as against the many, in their efforts to honestly ac-quiro a competency.

Tho anarchist is taught that hate of the prosperous is a cardinal prin- ciplo, and that murder is justifiable to accomplish an end. Tho Socialist believes in the broth erhood of man, and his creed is the elevation of humanity through love of each other." he leading press of the country, both Republican and Democratic, have rocenty put themselves on record along the same lines of thought as the St. Louis Star. Our Republican friends must take more pains to groom this young hopeful's sire, if they intend to hold him out as their lighting cock in thh nock of the woods. A Smooth Swede.
