Inmireof -rf WSSm YRVPiS WILLIS C. Kansas State Soldiers Home. The following interesting article is from the Downs Times and pays a well merited compliment to a worthy citizen of Jolmson comity: editor of the Times paid a visit to the state ldiers' home at Fort Dodge this week, and found the home "a honie" tn every of the word, a retreat from the i.nrinoil and cares of life for the old veterans and tbf-ir families. Frequent reports have been circulated of extreme and unnecessary. discip'e en-force-d, and compare -Soldiers' homes' to prisons, poorhouses, 'Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Tnder the able management of the present board of managers compo-sed of T. Hancock of Olathe, president, James Dutro of Yates Center, secretary, and George Burton of Hallo well, treas urer, and S. Stoddard of Rice county as commandant, the home is everything; that the word implies. The home occupies a part of the military reservation of Ft. Dodge and is aboufrye miles from Donge City, The quarters and barracks erected years ago for the protection of troops was quite; a nucleus- for the upbuilding of the home, one long building is occupied by single men where each has a room by kiinself with a large dining hall where they take their meals a in a.

boarding house; one large building where old people, men and women, are quartBred, with dining room same as single- me's quarters; comfortable cottage ofi four large rooms arranged for two families in each cottage. Tm-ilies draw rations twice each week and draw, dry goods and clothing when admitted and then once in three months. The rations are composed of all the ecessacies and of the very, best the clothing for comrades is tailor-made arid of the very best material. The home is- conducted on the most Hbeia and beneficial policy and there is nothing left undone that can be done for the welfare- and comfort of the inmates. The discipline, if it can be called discipline is simplj: a rule of conduct prescribed for the better and easier government of the institution, as a man govern his own family and establishes rnles- for his household.

There is entire freedom to the old soldier; no roll call, no guard duty to perform, no fatigue duty and no inspection; they come aud go.as they desire and no privileges are denied them consistent with their manhood; they live and enjoy life as a community where their health and every comfort is guarded by a beneficent state whose every thought is "honor for the heroes of '61 and 65." Of course now and then a refractory member violates the rules but very seldom does it occur, for violations subject the offenders to dismissal. There are at present 150 comrades at the home, 09 wives, widows, and 147 children; they; have 46 bead of milk cows, SO head of beef cattle head of hogs, and six teams of horses. They produced an abundance of garden vegetables, about 500 bushels of potatoes and hundreds of tons of hay and feed for the stock.
