About Barbed Wire Fence.

In building wire fence the chief require.
ment is an immovable end post. Several
years experience has taught that an end
post needs to be set very firmly. to be OF
extra size and length. and so well braced
that there can be no possible chance for it
TO be pulled over. The post had best be
set three and half feet, and the first post
ten feet distant from it so that ii may serve
for a foot for the brace. In carving
wire over the ups and downs" of the
land, it is disposed to run" and the
fence can be made much stronger, and
this also guarded against.by setting every
tenth post three feet, and tamping 1t
with small stones so as to hold it secure.
Then in crossing hollows, the tendency
of the wire is to '.litt' so that in the low
est places extra care should be taken 10
set one or more posts very deep ard
secure, so that they cannot be affected by
the contraction of the wire. ALWAYS use
the galvanized wire Its cost is only one
cent per pound more than the painted,
which last is in reality no protection TO
the metal, for it soon peels off, and then
to save the wire from rust. it has TO he
painted, and those only who have painted
barbed wire fence can enter into the
spirit of a recital.

Over UnexplOred Mountains.


The detachment which was sent nnder
command of Captain II. II. Pierce of the
Twenty First Infantry to explore the northern
part of Washington Territory and report on
its typographical aspect, reached Vancouver
yesterday after an absence of six weeks.
During the trip the officers and men cx-
rerienced much hardship and privation. The
commander left Fort Colville. W. T.. on
August |. and pushed in westerly line for
the Cascade Mountains. The ascent was so
steep that only three horses could be got
across the summit One of the pack mules
went over a precipice head over heels and
after making about so revolutions per minute,
soon landed at the bottom of the canyon,
distance of 400 feet. Another horse was
lost in the same manner, and valuable
mule was bitten by a rattlesnake and died
shortly atterward. Most of the animals and
a number of the men were sent back to Fort
Colyille.
The party that remained travelled over a
region which is supposed to have been never
trod by the feet of white man. Lieutenant G.
Il. Backus of the Third Cavalry, than whom
perhaps there is no man better versed in
woodcraft in the service, was second in
command After being out some weeks the
provisions began to give out, and for five
days the party subsisted on quarter rations.
Part of the country travelled over is reported
to be exceedingly rich in mineral deposits.
The territory traversed by the party was
fearfuly rough consisting of deep declivities,
and in some places the ascent was perilous.
After reaching the Skagit River they fell in
with party of Indians, who carried them in
a canoe as far as Stirling, where the soldiers
procured supplies of food, etc. Captain
Pierce part of the time suffered from u bad
cold but notw outstanding his ill-health he

How a Litchfield Farmer Makes
Butter.

Mr.. w. NJ. Hattin of Li,chfield has 20
cows now that he milks, and all their milk is
put into butter. The creamery he uses is
Cooldge's patent, and he makes his butter at
minimum Of labor. The operations of but.
ter making are SO simplitied that it looks like
fun. The milk is taken right from the cows
q rod or two to the creamery and is emrticd
through strainer in the pail into can. about
two feet high and eight inches across. This
is quite departure from the old idea of
shallow pans, and still more so. from that of
scalding the milk, for these cans are set in
q tank filled with water at AZ degrees. In
10 hours the cream all rises, and NAV be
seen through two glass sits in the side of the
cans. 1t forms Il layer on top some four or
five inches thick. This is not .kimmed, but
the milk is drawn out at the bottom of the can
with faucet. and the cream is emptied into
pals. They churn now four times week, but
in the summer had to every day. The churn is
a kind of swinging trunk, and % gallons can
be cburned in it easier than FIVE in the old
fashioned churn. The butter comes in little
golden grains-n0t in a solid c0nglomeration.
The bnttermlk-sweet and luscious-is
drawn off and Immediately emptied into
conductor, which carries it to the hogs-of
which Mr.. I1attin has 40. Then the churn
is fled with the pnre water from the well
which is close at hand, and slight rinsing is
given the butter. Then the water is drawn
off. The butter has gathered a little
during the washing; and the churn is
again filed with water, and again drawn
off. The third time the water comes of
nearly as clean as when it went in, and
the butter is freer from milk than any pro-
cess of working by hand could make it. Then
the butter is taken out and placed in a ma

Improvement in the Gait Of TrOt-
ting Horses.

The Improvement in the quality of gait of
the trotting horse within the last few years il
one of the marvels in trotting. Only very
few years ago the jumping jack kind of trotter
was common in the very best localities. In
deed, the skip jack gait was cultivated, and
thought to be indispensable to fast speed in
harness. The large majority of trainers ar
gued that the horse must learn to break and
catch before he could be relied upon in race.
For. said they, il he is not good catcher, n
break would put him behind the flag. There
fore, the horse must be spoiled before he was
good for anything for harness turf horse.
A break rested him, they said. Give him
his head, let him jump few rods, then set
him down, and he can fairly five" Such were
were the erroneous teachings in former years
To day the gait of the trotter is as smooth
and regular the play of n piston rod; rs
rhythmical as the most harmonious sympho-
MES of musical composition. Why is it so?
Because fashion dictated. Mr.. Bonner bought
only such, and gentlemen Of wealth every
where followed his example. As soon as it
became known that pure trotting gait was the
saleabe thing, trotters began to make rapid
improvement in the quality Of gait not only,
but in quality as we'll The modern trOtter
is, therefore, a model trotter. This was man
ifestly true Of the horses that participated at
Chicago this wear, and are now engaged in
the various circuits over the country. The
change is not due to any particular improve
ment in the trotting families themselves 40
much as to the new methods in use for their
education. There are few horses on the turf
nowadays that pull ton by the bit, as was
customary at one time. To trot fast, the
horse should not be hampered by any more
harness than is necessary for complete safety.
Indeed. we look for the horse to trot best
with no more harness than bride reins, back
strap, saddle and girth at an early day.
