Newspaper Cutting.
Husbandman, oath inst.

The Butte DAILY MINER and In
ter Mountain have been reduced in
size. but their value as newspapers il
not impaired. 1t Is not always the
largest papers that are best and most
remuuerative to the prOprietors.
While 1t shows good judgment on
the p .rt Of the proprietors to make
their papers conform to the business
they receive, 1t Is no ere lit to the
town in which they are printed to
force It's papers to reduce their size
for want of patronage. Towns are
judged ny their newspapers. and
their reduction, to those unacquaint.
ed. shows the town to be declining.
This, however, is not the case with
Butte. We believe it has more busi-
n'ss places and a larger
business now than ever be-
fore, and the mines that support it
in the aggregate are yielding more.
The true cause, probably. is move
Of retrenchment on the part OF the
merchants and business men. Hav-
ing lately heen brought in comp+ti-
tiOn with East .rn men, who are bet-

This is certainly very unwi.e move.
They had bet er reduce their other
expenses than draw off the life blood
OF their best friends, the newspapers
of their city. To these papers is the
credit due for the building no of their
city and business, and the publishers
must feel that they are being paid for
their efforts, or they cannot be ex-

they destroy and eat large numbers of
of bugs that are injurious to growing
plants.
1t is mistaken idea that they must
have pond of water for their special
benefit Although such a place may be
very pleasant for the ducks, it can not
in any sense be deemed necessity.

ming around too much, especially early
in the morning when the dew is on, for
the health and comfort of young ducks
They must also be protected from spring
rains, and this the duck mother does
not believe in, as duck enjoys a good
shower next to a pond. When young
they must be watched, for if they by any
accident get upon their backs they are
not able to get upon their feet again
without some assistance. They are
hearty eaters, and should be fed early
and often. Do not neglect them till late
in the morning; they should be fed as
early as possible. After they start to
feather they grow very rapidly, and
mature earlier than chickens They
can be picked two or three times during
the summer. and on this account are
more profitable to raise than chickens,
and are really less trouble to raise.

very oblivious to the occasional re-

But this didn't often happen, because
the boys always liked the old man and
