quite pretty, wore a train of white silk
with a lace front. On her head were
the regulation bridal-veil and orange
blossoms, at her left hand stood the
bridesmaid, Miss Annie Bell, profess

flesh made the brides little figure look

seemed to enjoy the novelty of the GER

No More Dollar Wheat. F"

Wheat at 40 cents in Chicago gives
the farmer very little for his work. Ii
most cases the producer at these prices
can not receive more than the cost OF
production. If it were probable that
prices would remain at this level fol
some months the acreage of wheat
would be greatly decreased next year.
A revival of the export demand will,
however, give the farmer a better return
for his labor, and unless the estimate
made by foreign authorities are all
misleading, that demand must soon in
crease. Still it would be well for the
farmers of the west to understand that
the days of dollar wheat" in their
chief market are gone, in all probability
never to return. York Times.

At the national cattle growers conven-
ton, recently held in Chicago, says the
Boston Herald, Mr. Thomas Sturgis, for
merly Of Boston, who has been interested
in this great industry for the last IL years,
delivered an address on THE Western
Ranchman and his Mission Mr.. Sturgs
first described the country used for graz
ing purposes which stretches from the Rio
Grande to the British possessions, and from
the Missouri river to the Sierra Nevada
mountains. The general conditions of this
immense territory are a soil thinly grassed,
Welding when moved only POO or 300
pounds to the acre, scantiy supplied with
water. the snow fed streams in valleys he
low the level of the general surface with
only 10 or 10 inches of rainfall per annum,
rain scarcely known between July and
April, with severe extremes of cold, which
imperis all animal life He then briefly
and clearly reviewed the history of the in
and honesty of the ranchmen, showing
what privations they have endured and
what perils they have encountered, and
the promptness and wisdom they have dis
played in improving their stock, and what
measures they have taken to protect it.
For instance, in the year 1888 the ranch
men of Wyoming alone bought 81 900, 00C
worth of bulls of improved breeds from
Missouri, Iowa, Illinois and Kentucky
while the annual product of all the rancho,
he estimates at $50, 600 head of cattle furn
ished to the markets of the country. II
regard to the future of the industry, Mr.
Sturgis belives that the ranchmen are keen
lv alive to its necessary conditions, anC
that it will continue to flourish by limiting
the stock on the ranges to the number o
cattle they will take care of, and by increas
ing the supply of feed by irrigation on
large scale and by cultivating alfalfa ON if
rgated land, where it will yield two o
three crops year, and so getting ha,
enough to take care of the herds in the Sc
| we're winter weather. Mr.. Sturgis denie
that there is any necessary antagonism be
tween the ranchmen and the settlers, an
shows that the rantiirrrrare doing all the
! can to remove every cause for criticism a
to their care of cattle in winter MI
8 Sturgis's excellent address confirms the in
e preston made by other evidence that tn
e day for great profits in the cattle grain
business on the great plains is past thong
. where the business is managed with wis
q enterprise and discretion it will still yield
fair remuneration, like other legitimate il
dustries

ants direct from the Prince Of Wales's pre-
serves A gentleman familiar with Mr.
Vanderbilts poultry stock told a reporter
that it is one of the finest as 10 fancy fowls
in the United States, and contains speci-
mems Of the choicest breeds, American as
well as foreign. Among his fowls are some
fine bronze turkeys, genuine Rouen ducks,
Toulouse geese and Aylesbury ducks He
has about 800 thoroughbred fowls in all.
While speaking on the subject the report
ers informant said that it was remarkable
the interest wealthy men are taking in inn
porting rare breeds Of fowls, and that the
result will prove most beneficial to the poul-
try interests of the country. The next
breed to be introduced is the white Minor
cas-, which will be done next season. They
are just beginning to breed in England and
are great egg producers. It is even now
prophesicd that the Minorca is to be the
leading fowl here for several years to come.

A great many journals have made haste
20 report that the effect Of the oleomargaf
inc law, as shown by its operation during
hort time it has been i'm force, has been
70 increase the sale Of imitation butter. If
these journals tno,r this to be fact, of
course they can tell us how many establish
ments were manufacturing oleo during the
corresponding period one year ago, and what
was the amount then manufactured, as well
as the number Of establishments now man
ufacturing and the amount now manuiac-
tured. None Of them have given us these
figures to compare. The simple truth is
that none Of them know, even approximate
ly, how many pounds Of oleo were made
aud sold in the corresponding period last
wear. and consequently none of them are
yet qualified TO pass such a judgment on the
effect of the law. 1t is evident from the
nature of the article that no accurate sta
tistics of its manufacture could he obtained
before the law went into effect The amount
made during the past year has been various
w estimated at from l50,0O0,OOO 10 more
than 300, 0O0, 600 pounds. The first report
of Commissioner Miller shows that "a man

the tax Of $3.50 each, 24lj retail dealers the
tax Of S4s each, and 44s0,1I4 pounds of
olcomargarine the tax of two cents pound.
From these figures Commissioner Miller es-
Inmates the product for the year at 100000,
600 pounds These figures look large, but
they represent an amount probably less by
at least one half than the amount of oleC
made and sold last year. The annual pro
duction of dairy butter is now nearly 200,

product, therefore, will be to the oeo prod
