ounces silver per ton and SIG in gold.
One location has eighteen inches of

feet of the low grade ore. The low
grade is good ore, but will not pay to
ship. The men will remain there all
winter and take out ore which they
will ship next spring to the Custer

there and milling, will be about $50

THE CANADIAN SKIP.

A Financial Expert In Exile Gives Some
Free Advice to the Illuminated.
When cash is gone and life grows weary
And everything is running downs:
When pocket-boOks are empt nearly,

When at the bank, or in the once,
Among the funds your fingers dip.

Just take q friends advice-and skip.

No hOrrid Extr. dftiOn Treaties
Among the men who wisely skip.
If you have bagged a hundred thousand,
You safely there can salt II down;
Nor know the dread of beak or warrant,
Either from the President or Crown.
Your days will pass q dream of pleasure.
No lawyers greed your wealth can strip.
Nor tradesmen's fingers touch your treas
If to the land of ease you skip.
Skip! skip! across the neutral border
We crook the finger, curl the lip:
Her Majesty has given the The order ,der vho

Eociety of every color
Here grccts the traveller for his health.
We worship still the mighty dollar:
The gay emf ezzler, fraud, or swindler;
The man who loves his neighbours wife;
The crook, the fence, find naught to hinder
Their leading here merry life.
Skip! skip! to this retreat Elysian,
Give Uncle Sam the quiet slip:
As long as there's no ExtraditiOn,
Just take friends advice, and skip.

ABOUT COLTS.

Three Points to BE Observed in.weanins
and Wintering Them.
It is with q colt as with an infant
injudicious practices at time of weaving
may lay the foundation for disturbed
digestion, and in the case of the colt,
this comes at a very inopportune time,
as the winter, with its dry feed and de-
privation of grass. requires to be met.
The colt is readily weaned, and this can
be done with safety, provided the change
be made gradually, suitable food being
given, and this with care. The dam is
readily relieved of her milk, her small
udder has room for but little at a time.
and she soon ceases to give milk. A
colt that is worth raising at all is worth
giving all the care that is necessary in
order that it may develop to the best
advantage from the start, losing no
ground. To reach this end requires
more judgment and care than is usually
exercised upon the average farm. Some
farmers advocate giving no grain to
colts. relying cpon hay, after frost. The
effect of this treatment is to give them
big abdomen, but from day to day they
get thinner upon the RIBS. The coat
stares, and as cold weather comes on,
the colt shows that sort of discomfort
that always comes of insufficient nour-
ishment being given. The weanling
colt should be SO fed that its sides re-

Is winter sets in. Many colts, when

NAPOLEON AND LOUISIANA.

The Circumstance That Led to the Sale OF
aGreat Territory.
In 1901 Louisiana was ceded to France
by secret treaty, which, however, did
not take effect until March, 1908; and
the month following Napoleon sold the
newly-recovered colony to the United
States for four millions sterling. He
was about to rush into war with the
English, and saw that it would be sure
to fall into their hands. ''They have
twenty war-ships in the Gulf of Mex
ico!' he exclaimed passionately to his
Ministers. Il have not a moment to
lose in putting it out of their reach.
The American Commissioners only re-
quire of me one town in Louisiana; but
l already consider the colony as entirely
lost" Walking in the garden of st.
Cloud, he said to MarbOis, whom he
trusted more at the time than Talley-
rand: '.Well, you have charge of the
treasury. Let them give you one humid
red million francs, pay their own claims,
and take the whole country" When
the minister said something about the
rights of the colonists: '.Send your
maxims to the London MARKET" retort-
ed the future Emperor with characters
tic cynicism.
And so Louisiana became a State Of
the Union before France became an
empire, thereby escaping many tribula-
tons and securing prosperity which,
Notwithstanding wars, foreign and civil,
tornadoes, floods, epidemics, and some
other vicissitudes, has gone on increas-
ing, and, so far, shows no sign of having
reached its apogee. Bienville's huts
have developed into a city of PIG, 900 in
habitants, with $50 miles of streets, 40
miles of tramways. and property esti-
mated at S112, 600, 900. Though the
imports of New Orleans are light, no
other American city save New York has
so great an annual export. Her magnif-
icent harbor is crowded with shipping,
and in 1883 more than two million bales
of cotton passed her gates for home and
foreign markets.-Tke Spectator.

Both men were on their feet in tho
