The Gunnison and UncOmpahgre.

From the Ouray Muldoon.
There is no farming section upon the con-
tinent that can duplicate the inducements
offered to those of an agricultural tendency
by the Gunnison and Uncompahgre valleys.
1t is simply the grangers paradise land
where drouth and over-stocked markets are
unknown a soil susceptible of the highest
state Of cultivation and adopted to the perfect
growth of fruit as well as every vegetable or
cereal utilized by man or beast. Every
pound of vegetables and grain consumed by
the mining counties Of 'Ouray, San Miguel,
Gunnison, Dolores and Hinsdale, as well as
the northern portion of San Juan, must, by
all the laws of transportation and commerce
necessarily come from those valleys. This
alone insures a perpetual demand and guar
antees to those who are fortunate enough to
take advantage Of the pre-emptiOn, a home
within the reach Of all who are endowed with
the boon of industry and virtue of economy
In the older and more denscly populated
states of the East the average agriculturist
will toll early and late to exc out an indif.
ferent living, while in this section the most
worthless granger is invariably blessed with
%an abundance of wealth. 1t is just like find
ing it.

In all parts of the United States on Sunday
last, except Denver, the hand of time was
set back upon the dial. BY the recent rail
road regulation the only change at that point
will be the dropping Of the a. m. and p. IN.
and all the hours of the day numbered in
their consecutive order. One o'clock in the
afternoon will remain one o'clock. One
o'clock to morrow morning will become 10
o'clock, o'clock in the morning will be IS
o'clock, and noon tomorrow will be!24 o'clock,

we will now say be on hand at 10 o'clock.

"A Good word for Ensilapo.

Professor Johnson of the Michigan
Agricultural college, says this good word
for ensilage. after practically testing it:
Il was not at all sanguine when we be-
gan the experiment as to the decided mer-
its OF ensilase, as claimed by many
writer's, but have been much pleased
with the result of the feeding. The con
venience Of handling the prepared fod.
der: the large amount that can be stored
in a small place; the avidity with which
cattle eat it, and thrive and grow when
a meal ration is fed with it: the fact that
1t can be stored in a wet time, during
lOwery weather, when fodder could not
be cured; the furnishing Of succulent
food for the stock during our long win
ters, at small cost-these are some of
the reasons that lead me to think the
ensilaging Of corn especially will prove
to be practical and profitable method
OF preparing food for stock. I think it
may take tine place of roots, and be a
cheap substitute for them. l am dis
posed to believe that best results will be
secured by feeding one daily ration of
dry fodder IN connection with ensilage.
The experiment shows that it is not
complete food ration. A meal ration
adapted to the animal for tho desired
result must be fed with it. The last
winter was exceptionally favorable for
the feeding OF folder of this character
on account of its extreme mildness, the
mean temperature being about twenty
four degrees during the time embraced
in the feeding. With severe weather
the results might be less favorable.

our country churches one night recently.
The congregation were patiently await.
ing the arrival # the minister, when
presently a rustling was heard in the
,isle and minute later the preacher
glided rapidly by to the pulpit, where he
Invested himself of his coats and walked
into the pulpit in lis shilt-sleeves, APP
paren'ly unconscious of Of what he had
done. After the prelude he announced
the opening hymn, prayed, and then with
great energy he opened his theme. His
arguments were SO convincing and lOgi-
cal that he soon aroused his hearers to
that extent that they became greatly eX-
cited and were standing up in the pcws
shouting "glory" in concert with great
rehemance. In the rear end of the
church number of "hard young men"
were having solid game Of poker, bet
ting on the final outcome, while on the
opposite side num| er of Washers were
diligently engaged in hugglng. their sweet
hearts.

was immense. Summed up the scene

What Should be Observed In Choos.
ing q Farm.


First, the ny of the land. My choice
would be to the northeast, for this rea.
son: In the spring when the night
freezes are frequent, the clay soils will
not thaw as quick, and if the lay runs to
the south the soil will thaw earlier in the
day and will slush as thin as water and
when it becomes dry will bake. The
same result follows when laying to the
west.
Second it is desirable to have timber
on the west side of the farm to break the
wind in winter or summer.
Third, the soil should be clay and
gravel mixed, as ali kinds Of crops do bet
ter in wet or dry summers.
Fourth, living water close to the build
ing.
Fifth, building close to the public high
ways. it will sell more readily.
sixth, do not mind wet or mucky
places If they Can be drained at small
expense.
Seventh, buying run down farm with
q slender purse is poor business, always
look TO its condition. lift has been run
hard and cash can be paid down with no
payments to make up. then the purchaser
has chance of coming out al. right.
When purchasing farm do not forget
to mention in your articles of agreement
the manure pile or strawstack. Also
find out what sort Of neighbors you will
come i'm contact with. 1t is also wise to
take note of the political complexion OF
the township aud determine whether
yon would be likely to harmonize. This
is imperative il you aspire to the honor

Cutting Cions.

ARentleman thoroughly educated and
intelligent, many years ago was very de-
sirous to graft over some varieties of
pear trees, and wished Mr.. C. NJ. Hovey
to tell hlm if it would do to cut the cions
in winter, as one of his neighbors told
him it would; but doubling his authority
he wished Mr.. Hovey with his long ex-
perience to inform htn,. Mr.. Hovey said
his neighbor was correct. "Why," said
he I always supposed the sap went
down into the roots in winter and the
clons would be worthless" Mr.. Hovey
askc d him how he knew that there were
any holes in the roots where the SIP
could go: He seemed puzzled and re-
piled, why, never thought Of that"
Mr.. Hovey then said," My dear sir, you
can cut cions at any time of the year
from the fall of the leaves until the
trees begin to swell their buds, throw
them on the ground and let them lilo
there all winter. or, if you please, in a
cool pt ce in damp moss till the next
year, twelve to fifteen months after they
are cut, and though rot quite 80 good il
kept the latter period, they will grow"

High Prices for Foreign Stock.

1t has been asked says "Stockman"
in the Rural New Yorker, "What sort
Of animals are Shropshire sheep, Of
which one single ram is rented for a
season for stock purposes for the sum
of SCOOP" There is nothing wonderful
about this. Breeders in England pay
extraordinary prices for stock animals
because Americans who have more
money than they know what to do with
pay such extraordinary pr:ces to them
for the produce of those animals. When
Americans 60 about bidding unheard-of
prices for foreign stock We can believe
one of two things: either they don't pay
any such prices, or get an enormous dis
count on the sly, or it is done wholly for
effect 80 as to sell them here at still
larger prices by virtue of the boom they
themselves get up. But as for the ram,
$3.50 is very small price for the use of
Il ram; many years ago Mr.. Bakewell
was paid 6,5oO guineas-$32, 550-for
tho use of one of his Leicester rams, and
Joras Webb received $4,000 for the use
of one of his Southern Downs.

"A Cliinanlan'S Moral Ledger.

The idea of posting ones good ard bad

strike balance now and again with a
view to determining ones chances in

hardly likely TO occur to any one but
Chinese. In the last nun,uvI of the Chi

the running account kept with the gods

safely Say is unique in the annals of

the entries: "For being at va, iazcc
