Cattle Raisind.
[Cor. st. Louis Globe-Democrat. ]


The stOckman's year begins in May
with what is called the Ground up. At
the close of the season in the early winter
the cattle are turned loose without herds
men, and allowed to roam through the
whole of western Nebraska and WyOm-
ing, finding food and shelter as they can.
When the spring opens small party of
cowboys is employed-each stockman
contributing to the force in proportion
to his interest-to range the whole
plains, gather up the cattle and drive
them to certain stations or places previ-
OusIy agreed upon at a meeting of stock
men held in Cheyenne. From these i'm
mense gatherings each owner selects the
cattle bearing his brand, and forms them
into herd TO be driven to bis ranch; he
also brands the yearlings of his herd,
who have up to this time run With their
mothers. After this grand division the
cattle are put i'll charge of the cowboys
for the summer. The grass is fine and
they improve rapidly, and are ready for
the market In June or July. For the
largest ranch the expense up to this time
is not over $500. The cowboys get
about $50 each for the round up" but
no stOckman is allowed to furnish less
then twelve, no matter how small his
herd may be Some are taxed as high
as twenty ow-boys. The matter is all
arranged at meeting of the stockmen,
held under the auspices of the stock
mems association. When the cattle are
all gathered in and branded for the sum-
mer the only help needed for the rest Of
the year is sufficient number of COW
boys to watch the herds, which is genoa
ally done by sleeping in the grass under
some friendly shade. Three cowboys
will take care of 1000 cattle, keep them
together, and drive to the railroad sta
lions such as are to be sent to market.

THE s0UTHs NEW INDUSTRY.

At the close of the war cotton seed
was regarded as of little or no value,
except for planting, and, consequently,
almost the entire product was thrown
away. According to the statements by
Tariff Commissioner Kenner, of Lou
isiana, it is valued at about one-third
of the cotton crop. The annual pro-
duet of seed is now about two and q
half million tons over and above what
is needed for planting purposes, and the
price has reached from $15 to $40 ton.
The value of the annual yield when
made into oil cake and other products is
estimated at from seventy-fve to hun
dred million dollars. This is a very
substantial source of wealth End mate
rial prosperity to the South, and one
whose Importance is no longer unappre-
ciated by southern capitalists. The
number of mills in operation and in
progress of construction for converting
cotton seed into its valuable products is
reported at from sixty-fve to seventy,
most of which have been started In the
past few years, and as the business is
found to be highly profitable the estab-
hshments are likely to multiply with
considerable raDidity

Ignorance in the Min

It is stated by those who claim to know
that the little boys who toll in the coal
breakers of the Pennsylvania anthracite
mines are in state of as benighted
heathenism as any of the inhabitants of
the islands of the sea whittier foreign
missionaries are sent. These boys are
from six years of age upward. AS they
work hard all day, they have no oppor-
tunity for education; and they learn very
little except the oaths and blasphemies
and bad stories which continually hear
spoken by those who are older and more
hardened in sin than themselves. There
are laws providing for the instruction of
these children, but they are for the most
part set at naught. The coal-breaker
boys highest ambition is to be promoted
to the position of miner, and this gener-
ally comes to him when heis old enough,
ifhe is sufficiently strong and industrious.
Good persons who want to carry the
Gospel to the heather can find wide
field Of effort among those ignorant and
degraded bows.

THE COOPERATIVE SYSTEM.

The Rochdale plan of cooperative
stores, which divides the profits among
the purchasers instead of shareholders,
is successful in England, In the aggre-
gate these establishments divided last
year nearly. 10 per cent, on the gross
amount of their sales. This is equal to
so per cent. on the share capital-a much
larger ratio than the private dealer re-
allies, the greater profit arising from
the fact that the cooperative stores are
not allowed to go to any expense to get
or retain custom, and that their business
is so regular that they need suffer very
little from dead stock. In 1861 there
were 80 English societies, with 4S, 1874
members, doing aD annual trade amount
ing to about seven and a half million
dollars. In ten years the number of
members and sales increased fve-fold,
and the capital was nearly doubled. In
thenext decade the..membership doubled,
the capital increased three-fold, and the
sales to more than half a million mem
bers amounted III 1880 to 800, 0OO,O 900.
These are the figures given in returns to
the government of actual business.
Scotland has a large number of societies
in proportion to its population, but they
do not seem to flourish in Ireland. In
deed tits only in certain parts OF Eng
land that they reach their highest devel-
opment in communities where the mem
bers are well known to each other. The
parliamentary return shows that coun-
ties where cooperation prevails have the
smallest percentage of pauperism. Ex-
periments in this country have not met
with much encouragement, except in
Philadelphia.

The Flooding Millions.

A New York Sun reporter has been
investigating the footsteps of the many
millions who walk the streets of New
York. Investigate is a good word
for it, too, because in the original Latin
it means to look after the tracks or foot
prints of anybody or anything. Nearly
all the steps of public buildings are
worn hollow, and the wear upon the
steps OF the elevated railroad stations is
so great that combination of iron and
India rubber, to prevent wear and slip
periness, has been devised. The curb
stones where people wait for vehicles
are followed out. A deep furrow is worn
upon the steps of buildings, like those in
front OF A. T. Stewards, running the
whole length of the building, where peo-
pie have left the sidewalk and walked
along on the step. The renewal of stone
steps, curbs and stairways III large city
is not infrequent.

EgYptiam Affairs.

The entire British feet entered the canal on
the Dist and proceeded to Ismalia. Capt.
Hastings with the gunboats Seagull and Mos
quito, proceeded to Shaluff by way OF the
Maratime Canal. They found 500 Arabs en-
trenched at the station, whereupon the Eng
lish landed and drove them from their position,
taking 40 prisoners. The British loss was two
drowned and two wounded while one hundred
of the natives were killed. De Lesseps has
been reprimanded by the French government
for his indiscreet utterances. The Porte re-
fuses to allow the expOrtatian of mules from
Turkey, and Lord Duffern has entered
vigorous protest against the edict, claiming
that it is q contravention of treaty rights.
A battalion of six hundred Highlanders
made a reconnaissance at Ramleh on the 22d,
and the guns at the Water-works hill simulta-
neOusly opened fire, to which the Egyptions
replied after the third round. The officers ap-
pointed by the khedive to accompany the Brit
jsh army have started for Port Said. The
transports which went into the Suez Canal de-
barked their troops at Ismaiia. Gen. Wolse-
ley succeeded in satisfying De Lesseps of the
necessity for the use of the canal by the Brit
ish. The I'D regiment engaged the Egyptians
at Serapeum, killing one hundred of them.
The Egyptian army has abandoned its position
between Suez and Ismailia and are now en-
trenched at Tel .el-Kebir, having cut the canals
and flooded the country to impede the British
advance. The fresh water canal at Port Said
has lowered considerably in consequence.

counter between the great anti-trade
currents and the polar winds in the belt
specified is the chief cause Mr.. Maury
assigned for tornadoes.
The Mississippi Valley is described by
Mr.. Maury as Ga grand continental
highway in summer for the vapor-laden
trade winds, which, entering the Gulf
of Mexico, are arrested in their west
ward current, and must find an outlet
to the northward. The anti-trades,
which form the equatorial current.
are simultaneously moving northward
as an upper atmospheric force. A
chance stoppage of either of the two
currents, causing conflict between the
cold air force from the pole and the
warm air force from the equator occa-
sions the formation of the tornado. Mr..
Maury describes a cyclone as g mass
of air In violent gyration, within which
there is a centre of rarifed air rising up
ward and flowing out above, the velocity
of the surrounding atmosphere, drawn
into the vortex below, increasing i'm
mensely as it nears the vacuum" The
funnel-shaped cloud of the tornado is
formed by the condensation of vapor
carried upward to colder regions.
Mr.. Maury can find no reason for be-
heving that the Mississippi Valley will
ever become free from tornadoes, since
they have their cause in the great air
currents which no transformation of the
surface of the country can interrupt;
but he makes suggestions as to how their
fury may be escaped. With a prompt
telegraph service, furnishing simulta-
neOus weather reports from the threat
ened districts each morning, a competent
meteorological could give the public
warning of the existence of conditions
favorable to the production of tornado.
Mr.. Maury also suggests that by choos-
ing sites for towns and buildings with an
elevation on the southwest side of them,
protection from tornadoes may ordina-
rily be secured, since they almost in
variably move from south-southwest to
north-northeast, and a hill in their
course will cause them to leap over
whatever is just beyond it. A witness
of the Grinnell tornado says: cit did
not always visit the earth's surface, but
often passed so far above as to inflict no
injury, but again would swoop down
with relentless fury, carrying destruc-
ton for few miles to every object in
its path. This description of the action
of the tornado which destroyed large
part of GrinnelI impressiveIy explains
why Mr.. Maury advises the selection of
building sites with an elevation on the
southwest side of them.

A Burglars Romance.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch. ]

There is a romance in the life of Hor-
ace Hampton, alias Little Horace. the
bank sneak thief, who figured in the
celebrated Safe Deposit robbery in this
city, and who is now doing penance in
the eastern penitentiary for attempted
burglary, which has just come to light.
Horace, who is southerner by birth, as
are Walter Sheridan and Billy Forester.
two other notorious individuals, was in
Richmond, Va, just before the close of
che war. In his hearing and in his con-
Versation he readily passed for what he
seemed to be-a gentleman of leisure.
He succeeded in gaining admission to
prominent social circle and rapidly
formed the acquaintance of daughter
of one of the leading officials in the con-
federate government. After a brief
honeymoon the supposed wealthy bride
groom left Richmond to go further
south on alleged pressing business con-
nected with his plantation. Time rolled
by and no tidings of his whereabouts
came to the distressed wife until nearly
a year had sped away, and then came
rumors, which deepened into positive
conviction, that the husband was
criminal adventurer, and had been con-
demned to an Imprisonment in a north
ern dungeon for daring robbery in a
banking house. The effect on the once
beautiful and vivacious girl was calami-
tous. She retired to her room and never
afterward appeared in society. A few
months afterward she died, literally
broken-hearted by the disgrace which
had been visited upon her by her IN
fortunate alliance with deceiver and a
thief.
