A Remarkable Sand-Dune.

In the eastern part OF Churchill county,
near Sand springs Station, on the road
from Wadsworth TO Grantsville. Nevada.
and about sixty-five miles from tie former
place, Is sand-dune, WEIGH ls remarkable
alike for its peculiar formation and moving
propens,ties. AS far around as the eve can
reach is q vast wilderness of greasewood
and stunted sagebrush. with here and there
abrupt mountain ridges, or sharp, rocky
peat, evidently placed there icng before
the mythical persons left their mysterious
footprints in the mud, now hardened for
the annoyance OF the State Prison inmates,
and for no other apparent purpose than TO
deceive the unaccustOmed traveller as re-
CARDS their distance from any place be hap
pens 10 be located. The dune, or sand
mountain ridge, which is about four miles
IN length, and covers probably a mile of
gressewood in width, was perhaps formed
by the heavy winds which prevail in thai
section, blowing across these deserts through
q natural opening IN small range of
mountains and depositing the small parti-
cles of sand that were picked up in heap
where the winds course is disturbed and
an eddy formed.
In the whole dune, which is from 100
to 400 feet in height aId contains millions
of tons of sand, it is impossible TO find a
particle much larger than PIN head. Ii
is SO fine that if an ordinary barley sack be
hlled and placed in a moving wagon, the
jolting of the vehicle would empty the
sack, and yet II has DO form Of dust in IL
and is as clean as any sea beach sand. lhe
mountain is su solid as 10 give 1t a musical
sound when trod upon, and oftentIm s a
bird lighting on it or a large lizard running
across the bottom will start large guam
tIty of the sand to sliding, which makes q
uoise resembling the vibration of telegraph
wires with hard wind blowing. but so
much louder that it Is often heard at a
distance of SIX or seven miles and is deaf
ening 10 person standing within short
distance of the sliding sand.
A peculiar feature of the dune is that 1t
is not stationery, but Tolls slowly eastward,
the wind gathering 1t up On the west end
and carrying it along the ridge until 1t Is
again deposited at the eastern end. Mr..
Monroe, the well known surveyor, having
heard of the rambling habits Of this man,
moth said heap, quite number VI years
ago, took careful bearings on 1t while Sec
tionlzing government lands in that viclni
ty. Several years late. he visited the place
and found that the dune had moved some
thing over mile.

The BEST FARM HoRsEs.-i ear: ago,
when faster horse than then existed was
desirable, there was reason IN the attempts
to improve the speed Of the animal, but
there is hardly doubt that the good OF the
farmer mas been nearly lost SIGHT Of IN the
desire to get horses Of great speed. The
oest farm horse is the strong horse, and
one that can step out lively, and has en-
durance 10 get through days work with
cut great fatigue. The business OF raising
fast horses is altogether distinct from the
business Of the farmer. 1t is a source of
excitement to see horse race but when a
farmer thinks the horse he sees racing Is
cne he ought to have on his farm he makes
mistake. The heavy Norman horse
would be more profitable than the one
which is SIMPLY trotter.
