STOCK NOTES.

Nelson and Adams recently sold 7O0
fat sheep to Helena parties for S4 per
head. Three hundred of the number
were delivered this week.-Sun.
The Breeders Gazette chronicles the
fact that the Jersey cow, Duchess OF
Bloomfield, made ass pounds and twelve
ounces of butter in seven months,
The governor of Arizona says that ter
ritory has grass enough for five million
head of cattle, but four-fifths of it is not
available because of no water He
thinks, however, that most of the coun-
try may be made productive in the
cattle interest by means Of artesian
wells.
From conversation with Mr.. Frields,
local manager Of the Walrond rancho,
we learn that the cattle of that company
are in first class condition. He thinks
that, taking the rortion Of the winter
which is past, as well as what will fol-
low, the loss among stock will not ex-
ceed two per cent, and it is doubtful it
1t will reach that figure. Another bad
storm may take off a few calves, but
they are included in the above estimate.
The same story comes from every por-
tion of the range country. We eXper-
i4nce quite as great satisfaction in pub
fishing these pleasing facts, as the stock
men must feel in knowing how well
their cattle are doing.-Macleod Gazette.
Gov. Brooks was in town last week
He has just come off from the range,
where he has been more or less for the
last month. He says the past winter
has been the best one for cattle in this
section he has seen since his residence
here, and he has been in the Judith
country since 1873. In riding over the
range among 1,500 head of cattle, hE
only found a couple of old cows tina
were in a precarious condition anc
liable to die Carcasass Of dead animals
are scarce and far between. The com
nany he represents, that OF Power & Co.

and they passed through the winte
with an insignificant loss. It was nee
essary to feed some hay during th'
severest weather, but the range ha

Shipping Cattle North.

WICHITA FALLS, Tex, March IT,
Arrangements have been consummated
whereby Texas cattle for the Northern
market will be shipped at Harold, the
new terminus Of the Fort Wayne q
Denver railway thence driven north to
Caldwill and HunniWell, south line Of
Kansas thence rallied to their destina-
ton. Those for Colorado, Wyoming
and northern territories will go from
Harold by way Of the neutral strip in
the north panhandle; thence north to
their respective destinations. This set
Ties the outlet for the cattle drive this
year, and saves the Texas stock interests
from being seriously crippled through
the quarantine regulations Of Kansas
and other states.

Before ProhibitIon-Grass In his Rum.

A Boston man was driving along q
forest road in Alabama, when he came
to cosy log cabin, in whose door sat o
plump and hearty darkey. Around the
cabin there was growing, in the loveliest
profusion, quantity of mint. The Bos.
ton man was In the habit of carrying
moist refreshments with him, and the
sight of the nodding paradise of mint
suggested beautiful thoughts.
"Would you like to take q drink with
me3" said the Boston man.
"Boss, / don't kyah ef dew" said
the darkey.
Whats your name, my man9 Julius.
WE'LL Julius, why don't you make q
mint julep2" said the white man.
"Wot mought dat be, boss7" asked
tho negro.
"Pick me some nice, tender sprigs OF
that mint and bring me some cold water,
and I'll show YOU"
The negro brought about a half O
bushel of beautiful mint and bucket OF
cool water from his we'll. The white
man mixed two drinks In two big tin
cups and tenderly interspersed little OF
the mint in them. Then the two dis.
cussed the beverages, and the darkeys
eyes cleaned as he drank. After q while
he came back by the same cabin. He
noticed with tender concern that the
mint seemed to have been stripped from
the darkey's yard as by tornado, and
the place looked forlorn and gloomy. In
the door sat negro, but not his negro.
It was detected and tattered old man
who answered the white mans call.
"Ahi where Is my friend Julius, who
lived In this cabin three months ago7"
"Po' JULIUS am gone, sab," said the
old negro, rolling his eyes.

Small Farms.

There are many material advantages
in small farms. We are not as liable to
overlook or hurry over small details that
very often could be made to be of i'm.
mense advantages to q growing crop If
We had done the work properly. Thore
Is always more to look after than ono
man can possibly attend to. The small
details of o farm are what constitute aud
make o thrifty farmer. 1t is better to
cultivate ten acres .hd make FIVE bales Of
cotton, than to cultivate twenty five and
maze She same amount. We do not be.
lieve that one horse can tend more than
twenty acres of cotton effectually, and
make fair crop of corn in connection
Herewith. We believe in small farms.
How much prouder q farmer would be
with neat little farm, fences and out
houses in good repair, the stock we'll
cared for, Q nice vegetable and flower
garden and good orchard, than with q
large farm, badly in wreck and cultiva.
ted for benefit of some merchant or fac.
tor. Go into the thickly populated
countries of the North aud West and see
how mitch easier and how much better
off are the farmers, who though they own
but small tract are making more money
than most of our large cotton planters.
Small farms mean prosperity and happy
life, free from the cares of having more
to do than we possibly can. To make
any business a success we must study it,
and it is the same with farming. If we
wish to succeed we must study our lands
and take into consideration our ability,
energy and capability Of managing
large farm. We had better make $500 O
year and save $50 than to make 81 500
and have nothing after we have paid for
guano, supplies, &c. Do not try to cul-
tivate too much, and especially if your
land has to be highly manured. 1t will
pay better to put five sacks of guano on
an acre than on five, for the FIVE sacks on
an acre would build it up, whereas scat.
tered on the five the productive qualities
would not be enhanced for more than
one year. The Maryland Advocate
wisely says:
Large farms usually mean large tax
bills, poor crops, poor horses and stock,
broken down farmers, sparsely settled
Districts, old and dilapidated farm build.

fences and weil-fed stock, and signs of
prosperity every ywhere.- Cotton Plant.

AN INCIDENT AT CEDAR HILL.
How Genoral Manigault Might Have hIade
History,

Among the incidents of his recent trip
relates the story of the battles about
Chattanooga, which just now. while the
attention Of the nation is concentrated
ARMIES of the Union side, may be inter.
eating:
"On my way from Charleston to Co.
lumbia," said General Bfinkeroff, "T fell
into conversation with General A. III.
Manigault, the present Adjutant General
of South Carolina. Finding that had
recently been at Chattanooga, he told
mo that he was in those battles and com.
mauded brigade near the centre of the
Rebel line ct Missionary Ridge.
"He said the finest thing he ever saw
was the advance of the Union army, with
10000 men In line.
"The day before the fight at Missionary
Ridge, General Manigault had his head.
quarters on an elevated point known aa
Cedar Hill, but en- the advance Of the
Union army the Confederates fell back
about three.quarters of o mile and took
up position OH Missionary Ridge. A6
! tho Union army sdvanced General Mani,
gault observed that Cedar Hill, the posi-.
ton vacated by him the day before, was
now occupied by aome one, evidently oi
high rank. He could SEQ through his
glass that orderlies on horseback were
coming and going in such numbers as to
make 1t very certain that some person OF
importance was then on Cedar Hill, ard
one who must ut least rank as high as q
division or corps commander.
"As he watched the hill the maxim Of
Napoleon in regard to destroying or dis.
abling the guiding mind Of an opposing
army occurred to him. Napoleon under
such circumstances advised the concen.
tration Of number of batteries and q
whole broadside in order to make sure
work, and as General Manigault had
several batteries of riaed guns he felt
sure that he could kill or cripple the
officer on Cedar Hill, but as he had or.
ders not to waste any ammunition until
ordered from headquarters, he sent for
his division commander and suggested
the propriety of sweeping Cedar Hill.
He was told that the orders Of General
Rragg were imperative, on account OF
the scarcity of ammunition, to reserve
FIRE for close quarters. However, he said
he would see General Bragg and ask his
consent. General Bragg declined, 'and
so,' said General Manigault, 4 lost an
opportunity of changing the currents OF
