The Republican Delegate at Large.

The First Judicial district conven.
tion Will be held in Bozeman to-day.
The district comprises Gallatin, Madi-
son, Yellowstone, Custer and Dawson
counties, but it is doubtful if all the
counties represent. At the county
convention the delegates virtually con-
ceded to Livingston the right to select
the one delegate at large to be nomin-
ated for the district, and it Is believed
that this selection from Livingston
will be the choice Of the convention.
The leading men of the republican
party met last evening to decide upon
proper person to invest with the
honor. and it is understood that their
voices went unanimously for a. B.
Curry, Esq. We trust that this Is the
case. If nominated by the convention
Mr.. Curry is practically elected. as two
delegates at large are to be elected and
only two will be nominated-one by
the republicans and one by the demo.
Gratis. Ifelected, Mr.. Curry will repre-
sent Livingston with honor and faith
fully serve his trust us one of the con.
stitution-makers for the territory.
No better selection could possibly be
made from the party ranks through
ont the length and breadth of the
district. Mr.. Curry will, if elected,
forget that there parties in Montana
and work only to assist in framing a
constitution that will be acceptable to
the people Of the territory, and to the
congress Of the United States.

Moro About the Baggage Theft.

The Bismarck Tribune has it that
Lottie Adsit alias oscar Face Charlie
''reached" on Staples and Shannon, and
caused their arrest for the Teller rob-
berry in st. Paul. She was arrested
after having displayed handkerchief
bearing upon it the initials H. M. T, .
and after selling brown silk dress to
a sporting woman of Bismarck. telling
her that it was present from her
mother and cautioning her to say moth
ing of the sale. It is surmised that
''Charlie" was the recipient of these
and other of the stolen goods from
Staples who, it seems, WIS striving to
supplant McGraw in her affections.
Andy Adams says all he knows Of the
affair is that one night Staples came
into his room in Livingston at late
hour and sald he had ''beat the hotel
and wanted to leave two trunks there.

Sowing Corn for Fodder.

South and Wet,
There is nothing the farmer can
get as much stock food from for the
amount Of labor expended as he can
from a patch Of sowed corn for fod-
der. Unless your ground be rich,
give it good coat OF manure and
plow 1t under. Let it lay until the
surface is thoroughly pulveriEed
then SOW the corn with a drill, about
one and a half bushels Of shelled
corn to the acre if you want il for
fodder alone, as by sowing thick the
stalks will be smaller, and YOU will
have a larger quantity of blades and
tops that the stock will eat up clean
er. by sowing thinner you get larger
and heavier stalks, and by sowing a
little earlier and letting stand longer
you can secure a good supply OF nub-
bing.

Much Of the corn was 50 immature

Western corn growers persist in
planting corn after corn. The result
is that they have bred a worm which
eats the roots and which lives in the
ground from year to year. As it is
not migratory its existence depends
on having corn planted on the same
field in succession. Good husbandrv,
which demands rotation Of crops.

When TO Plaster Clover.

Hon. George Geddes thinks the
time to apply plaster TO clover is
after the plants have made some
growth, say after wheat harvest on
clover sown in spring. He thinks
that the plaster acts directly upon
the leaf on which it is sprinkled. In
support Of this idea he claims TO
have had selected a plant having
three branches Of very equal and
uniform growth, each about four
inches in height and standing out
alike from the root. On the leaves
Of one OF these branches little
ground plaster was carefully applied
with Il peu.knifc. In three days rain
came Ina few weeks the leaves and
stalks OF the plastered branch were
nearly twice A. large and rank as
those on the same plant not plastered.
