FARM and HOUSEHOLD.
Farming Notes,

The want Of pure and fresh water ac-
counts in many instances for the lack of
eggs during the winter season. Fowls
require a constant supply Of water, and
without it will not lay.
A frost-proof vegetable house is de,
scribed as made with walls fifteen in
ches thick, double boarded, the space
between the boards being filled with
sawdust. The ceiling is also boarded,
with about ten inches of isawdust be-
tween the boards.
The Tribune says that mulching is
fully a beneficial for raspberries and
blackberries as Strawberries, yet few
seem TO think so. Ifthe mulching con
sists of good stable manure the canes
will make IN excellent growth, and the
crop Of fruit be greatly improved in
size and quality.
The British Medical Journal saws
COWS drink filthy water for its saline
taste, and proposes an antidote in the
shape of rock salt, kept always within
reach of the cows. and we suppose it
would be a good idea to have the salt
near the place where good water is to
be had, so as to attract the COW to that
location.

Wheat bran, having been used by q

has been found by him to be excellent.
He claims that the application of one
ton of bran to the acre is equal to that
obtained from the usual application of a
mixture of bone dust, guano, lime and
wood ashes, and that the difference in
yield of the crops that received bran as
compared with those not SO treated was
very great.

Ben Hogan in Helena.

The Helena papers give volumiu.
Gus accounts of Ben Hogan's first
meeting in the Capital city. The
Opera House was filled by an audi
ence composed of people occupying
every grade in the social scale, who
seemed to take great interest in his
lecture "How I Became Reformed
Man." The pastors of the Methodist,
Presbyterian and Congregational
churches participated in the proceed
ings. He gave the story of his life in
sometimes ungrammatical but earn
est language, and left the impression
upon the minds of his hearers that
he is sincere worker in the cause
of reform, and will do good where
ever he goes. The Independent, In
speaking OF the meeting, says: "All
were pleased. Christian and SIM er,
Jew and Samaritan alike-all felt
the spell of the mans earnestness
and enthusiasm in his work-to do
good, and when he announced that
he hired the Opera House for week
at $llO, and wanted those who felt
disposed to contribute towards de-
fraying his expenses, there was
general lumbling in the pockets of
the audience for loose change. and
very liberal contribution was the
result. Mr.. Hogan reaches a class
which the ministers of the Evangeli-
cal churches cannot reach."

Reducing their Size.

The Butte MINER and Inter Moun.
tain, two of the most enterprising
journals published in the Rocky
Mountains, announce their intention
to reduce their size, by reason Of in
adequate advertising.patronage. Butte
is the most prosperous mining city in
the country, having produced in the
past year upward of $4,000, 900; its
merchants and business men are
reaping rich harvest; and money is
abundant. 1t is remarkable, in view
Of these facts, that the journals which
have stood by the camp through good
report and Dad, should not receive
advertising patronage enough to en-
able them to retain their ample and
creditable positions. Business men
should think twice before they per-
NIT this humiliating spectacle. A
town is judged by its newspapers. it
should be remembered, and Butte
has always had reason to be proud of
the MINER and Inter Mountain.-

The Convention sat seventy-flve

there being no business ofimportance
to transact. The members amused
themselves with miscellaneous mo-
tions and jocose remarks.
Hedges wanted q provision en-
grated in the constitution providing
that every boy in Montana be taught
a trade and every girl be taught to
cook, keep house and do plain sew
ing.
The motion to refer this to the com,
mittee on internal improvements was
rejected, and special committee of
three appointed to consider it.
Browne, of Beaverhead county, has
arrived and was sworn in by the
president. This leaves seven absen-
tees, two Of whom are from Silver
Bow county.
Delegates have remarked in de-
bate that this is not legislative
body. The dulness of the proceed
ings impresses this fact upon the
mind of your reporter. Work is
being done in committee. The
newly elected officers were sworn in
and the convention is now in full
working order.
The press is indebted to Captain
Mills for the motion to afford the |
privilege Of the floor to reporters.
Hitherto they were present merely by
suffrauce.
Marcus Daily obtained leave of
absence one week, in consequence of
serious illness. The
three other members were excused
for the day for various reasons.
A motion to inform the Governor
hat the convention is now ready for
business, and to ascertain if he had
my communication to make, was
lumorously satlrized by Galloway,
md indefinitely postponed.
Pemberton warmed up in discuss
ng the unfitness of the hall, and
declared "God Almighty would not

The Biz Four
pass the bi.

The Smith, Waldron, Cronin & Martin
Grotesque Comedy company opened last
night at the Grand Opera house, and a
funnier entertainment has not before been
put on that stage. There is no particular
plot, but everything is funny, and which OF
the three acts is the funniest it would be
difficult to decide. The music is merry, the
dancing graceful and the singing tuneful.
The ladies are pretty and vivacious and the
Big Four the best in their line, and all in all
the mirthful comedy furnishes an evening
of downright, jolly fun, only somehow or
other it seemed as if the play had just begun
when the curtain rang down, after the audi
ence had been laughing for three hours.
There is no discount on the show in its olio
of fun, and yet it is said that the company
can be funnier still, but to decide this oues-
ton the good public should be present to-
night and see for themselves.
