MONEY MADE ON CATTLE RANGES
Importance OF Keeping Books in a StiIIfat
Manner to Sacel the Profits.

Importance Of Keeping Books in a ShiIIfat
Manner to SaceLL the PROFITS.
An Eastern man met one of the cattle
kings of Wyoming territory at Cheyenne
the other day. The cattle king had made
his pile and gone out of cattle raising, and
he sat down to give the Eastern man
little of the true inwardness of the bust
ness.
"You have come to Cheyenne to investi-
gate the cattle business, have you? And you
want to know how the cattle raisers make
their money ?Well, L will tell you how made
mine, and my experience is common
one here. In 1877 I bought 1000 Texan
COWS, so grade bulls and 80 ponies. They
cost me, branded and turned loose on the
range, about $4,000. The first winter,
which was very hard one, I lost 40 per
cent. The first summer l branded 400
calves. At the end of the first year I had
on the range 1850, and on my books
1,450, which represented the total head of
stock had handled SO far. The second
year 1 lost 100 head and branded $50
calves. 1 then had on the range 1,400,
and on my books 1900 The third year
the range was eaten out, or
at least was not so fresh as when I
| first went in, and I lost 90 per cent, brand
! ed 400 calves, and sold 200 dry COWS and
heifers for $4,000. at the end of the third
| year had on the range 1,100 cattle and on
| my books 2,100. The fourth year L lost 10
| per cent, branded 45O calves and sold 400
| two and thre-y ear-old steers and dry COWS
for $4,000. Had on my range at the end
of this year 1880 head and on my books
2,15O. The fifth year 1 lost Is per cent,
branded 400 calves, and sold everything
that was fat, and some cattle that were
not, for $4,000. 1 then had on the
range 1900 head, and on my books 1880
Ny expenses up to this time had been
about $4,000 year or $4,000 altogether
At the end of five years [ had drawn out OF
the herd $4,000. L had got all my money
| back and had over 1000 half-breed or i'm.
proved cattle on the range. From thi;
time on it would only cost me Sc to raise
a three-year-ola steer, and l could sell him
for $50 to $40, but the range was getting
bad, and all the ranges in the ter
ritory being taken up, there was NO new
place to move to. l was afraid of dry
summer and hard winter, so I bough
1000 Texas yearlings for $4,000, turned
them on my already overstocked range an(
added them to my books, which mad,
ALSO head. then came to Cheyenne tt
find buyer. I soon found tenderfoo
fresh from New York city. 1 knocked OF
from my books $50 head for loss, and solc
the rest for $35 per head, or cool 800,
900.

was not well enough to enjoy the regal
honors of the occasion, and was too feeble
to take a projected carriage ride.
A Michigan manis said to have disposed of
family of six or seven daughters in the
following way: They were all of mar
riageable age, if not more, but none of
them got married, although all the young
men of the place were made welcome at
the house. The old gentleman finally
changed his tactics. He locked the girls
up in upper rooms, nailed up the front
gate, and announced that the first young
man who came around would be received
by shot gun. This had the right effect,
for the girls were one by one stolen
away and married.
Among the items in the account of the
expenditures of the department of justice
is one of $500 paid to General James R.
Chalmers "for services in his own election
case" 1t thus appears that contestant
for seat in congress may, if he happens
to be lawyer, draw pay for his legal ser
vices in his own case, besides receiving
money from the government to pay the ex-
penses of his contest. What with regula-
tons of this sort and the payment of enor-
nous fees to the star-route lawyers, Mr..
Brewster will prove to be costly luxury.
1t was sad blow to the ''Ohio man.
when death removed Garfield. The Ohio
man will never cease to lament the untime-
~ taking off of that statesman and the
consequent loss of Offices which it involved.
He has felt extremely sore over the fact
that President Arthur ignored the state in
making up his cabinet, and now that the
postmaster generalship is vacant he is
raising loud and long howl for the place.
Mr.. Grosvenor has taken occasion to tell
the president, in a somewhat threatening
manner, that the Republicans of Ohio can
not carry the state in October unless they
are assisted with government patronage,
and that this patronage may be best Sc
cured by appointing an Ohio man-Mr.
Foster, for instance,-to Mr.. Howe's late
position. He points out that the loss of
Ohio this fall would mean defeat in the
national contest of next year, and says that
the appointment of Foster or some other
well-known Ohio Republican F'would
strengthen and encourage US wonderfully"
1t is believed, however, tt at the president
will look to the South for Mr.. Howes sue
cessor. He has no great love for the Ohio
man, and is not likely to be bulldozed into
appointing anyone from the Buckeye
state.

Probably the Larqes. Farmer in the Worl

Probably the Largest Farmer in the WorId.
Hiram Sibley, of Rochester, n. Y, is
said to be the largest farmer in the world.
He owns more than a hundred improved
farms. One in Illinois, formerly known
as the "Sullivant Farm" contains 10000
acres; another in Cayuga county, N. Y,
$500 acres. Farmer Sibley is not, how
ever, typical son of the soil, having long
been identified with great commercial en-
terprises, and working harder with his
head than with his hands. He organized
and was for over fifteen years president of
the Western Union Telegraph company,
and has also had extensive railroad inter
ests. He is now the head of one of the
largest seed houses in the world. The
name of Hiram Sibley & Co. is
already a household word in thou
sands of homes, to which their
farm, garden and flower seeds are sent
each year. They not only furnish seeds,
but also valuable information as to the
best method of growing them. They publish
the Farmers Almanac, the northern edi-
ton of which contains valuable articles on
the cultivation of special crops, by the
best American writer's; the Farm Seeds
manuel, which gives rare fund of infor-
nation upon the growing of all farm crops:
also Flax Culture for Seed and Fiber.
