Jos. HARRIS PLAN.-My plan of i'm
proved agriculture does not necessarily i'm
ply the production of any more grain of any
kind that we sell than we raise at present.
I would simply raise it on fewer acres, and
thus lessen the expense for seed, cultivation,
harvesting, &c. l would raise 30 bushels
of wheat per acre every third year, instead
of 10 bushels every year. If we summer
fallowed and plowed under clover in order
to produce the 80 bushels of wheat once in
three years, instead Of ten bushels every
year, no more produce of any kind would BIO
raised. But my plan does not contemplate
such result. On my own farm seldom
summer fallow, and never pillow under clo-
yer. I think I can enrich the farm nearly
as much by feeding the clover to animals
and returning the manure to the land. The
animals not take out more than from FIVE to
ten per cent. of the most valuable elements
of plant-food from the clover. And SO my
plan. while it produces as much and no
more grain to sell, adds greatly to the fer
tility of the land, and gives an increased
production of beef, mutton, wool, butter,
cheese, and pork.

Holiday glee rained from attic to cellar.
Halls, kitchens, dning-rooms and parlors,
resounded with footsteps and merry voices.
In the parlors was blaze of light which il
Illuminated merry faces, and then streamed
out the easement into the Swallowed street,
as if warming toward the desolate. 1t was
wild night without. There were reckless
clamoring of the misunderstanding and
bemoaning for know not what. Within was
old.fashioned merriment born Of the holiday
spirit. There was music, dance and jest,
and spirited game. Presently the guests
resolved themselves into a sem-circle. The

A TALE OF STRIFE AND BLooD.-As two
strange dogs were passing down Bozeman
street, a third strange dog they happened tor
to meet; the last was yailer dog with sky
blue eyes one of the others, an injun, tother
a flee. They logged along, these poor half
starved ones, In quest OF bones, stale fish,
meat or dry Scruinbs. In front OF Butcher s
they stopped with surprise: desire shown
from their blue, green and auburn eyes, for
there in full view before the butchers door,
hung sausage five feet in length, perhaps
more. The sausage wagged its tail. the flee
lit out, while the two wondered what this
was all about. They argued mildly and slow
at first, but soon, the noise discounted Dutch
Johns gong at noon. Fier, er and tiercer
their savage growis resound, and soon they
cIinch and bite. and claw, and hair flew
round, like tie whirling snow scudding DER
the plain. Deep growls mingled with ffercer
howls of pain then broke through the startled
and affrighted.air, now filled with the injun's
and the yalIer's hair. The sausage looked
camly on the bloody fray, and quick as tho't,
soon dropped down in the way of the fight
ing ours, and soon at them he went with
most yengefull ire, on bloody deeds intent.
He then laruped them severely for spell,
and just about this juncture he meant BUSH
