FOURTH OF JULY.

The Fourth passed of pleasantly in Dodge
City. There we're no extensive preparations
Tor the celebration Of the National Day. The
Dodge CITY Fire Company paraded In the
evening, the Dodge City Silver Cornes Band
discoarsing some popular airs on the oocas-
ion of the march through the city.
The ball given in the New Opera House
in The evening was largely attended, fully
seventy five couple tripping the ligh, fantas-
tic until daylight doth appear" Nothing
happened to mar the harmony and pleasure
Of the affair. The excellent management Of
the r'-ll vas guarantee that the utmost de-
con-. and order would prevail. But these
,hipes are now common in this city, and We
do not refer to this harmonious occasion ex.

THE WHEAT CROP.

Carefully compiled statistics show nearly
as large yield OF whest for the year 1879
as last year. Adding the surplus Of wheat
Of last year, there is aquantity now on hand
equal TO that OF lac. year. Prices Of wheat
remain firm, and the promise Of . large ex-
port may enhance the price = tri6e. Many
OF the farmers in the Western portion of
Kansas are calculat ng on an increased acre
age this fall. The drouth has been sub
merged, and the promise Of a favorable fall
gives encouragement. The wheat grown in
Ford county this year will be used for seed
for MEX, years crop. The sturdy men who
hold the pillow in this region Of country are
not discouraged by the back.et. but are re-
vivine their hopes and laying plans for next
years harvest.
We notice that large yields Of wheat are
reported 10 the southeastern part Of the
State; forty and six,y bushels Of wheat to the
acre being the average. This does not show
mucn effect BY the drouth. An export de-
mand will greatly diminish the supply, and
our farmer friends can prepare Tor next
years crop with some aseursnce Of fair
yield and . demand for the grain.

SHEEP HUSBANDRY.

The Western Spirit says: The raising Of
sheep in ksnsss is beginning to attract con.
siderable attention. A careful examination
Of the statistics Of various counties discloses
the fact tina, this branch of industry has
more than threbled during the past year.
The cheappe.s of corn, hay and pasture 10
this State, taken in connection with the low
price Of land, all combine to give Kansas an
advantage in raising eheep over that Of any
eastern State where sheep are raised in such
large numbers and where they yield sucn .
handsome return ON the investment. In
many counties in this State sheep raising has
been very renumerstive and the farmers are
going extensively into the business. The
question Of climate and its effects upon the
health of the sheep have been favorsbly sci
tied and ii is nov conceded that there is no
State where sheep are more healthy or grow
and thrive better than here. Of courre the
raising Of sheep is like any other business, .
man must understand il 10 be successful.
To raise sheep extensively farmer should
have his farm or pasture land fenced into
6elds. and should have sheds to protect them
from the etorms in winter. The expense in
CURED for this need not be large. Every
good citizen is interested in developing the
material resources Of our county and adding
to oar taxable wealth, and here 10 . branch
which has been too long neglected and it is
nov time tia, il should receive some stten-
tiop.

WILD HORSES.


We learn from Col. X. BalliDger, who re.
Gently met Mr.. Fulton ct Garden City, the
following in relation TO the mode Of capture
Of Wild horses in Kansas:
In 1877 he caught 6fty-6ve head Of Wild
horses on Beaver creek, tributary Of the
Canadian river in the Indian Territory. 10
1873 Mr.. Fulton and his men captured two
hundred and fifty head, making three hun
dred and FIVE head for the two years. About
two hundred head we're captured near the
String Lakes, in Scott county, Kansas, and
about fifty head were captured in Arrspahoe
county. Sixty.6ve head was the largest herd
brought in at any one time.
The mode adopted for the capture OF these
horses, is continuous pursuit; getting them
on the prairie, following them from daylight
until dArk, and continuing the same for q
week or tso. it requiring from seven 10 four
teen days TO get them under control. The
young colts get foot-sore and are frequently
left behind. Of course Mr.. Fulton has horse
feed and provisions for men which he either
,akes along or leaves in camp on the range.
Mr.. Fulton claims that these horses are the
American breed. no BroDcos or mustang
among them, and arc probably the of spring
Of escaped animals from the old Santa Fe
trail. Their colop are brown or bay, unlike
the motley colors Of the mustaDg. They are
easily domesticated; several captured ones
we're no sooner caught than saddled and
made to perform duty 10 pureuit Of their
wilder comrades. A few mules were captur-
ed with them, and in 1878 Mr.. Fultor
caught fine American horse weighing 100
pounds. apparently as wild as any Of the
herd. In following these horses sometimes
the men are without food and water for two
days at . time, and instances ne known
where they have been lost and had to aban-
don The herd; and many instances could be
written, thrilling and truthful, about the
capture of wild horses on the western prai.
ries, that would make good sized book.

had approved it. Nothing remained to
be done but vote and 60 home. When
the Senate came to do this the Republi-

sion we're again repeated. The resolu'
