A prominent gentleman of the cattle.
raising persuasion, in conversation with
a party of friends the other day in this
city, gave the following points:
ssThen all it needs to start out with is
O good horse and piece of rope?"
"You are dead off on that proposition.
Just let me tell you. Start out ON foot
quietly along the cattle ranges, with q
regular rawhide riatta and and branding
iron. Flip your riatta over any calf you
%see that has no brand on him, make a
fire out of sagebrush. or whatever comes
handy, and you brand your title on to
that calf. Then keep on doing so until
the annual rodeo, when you are found
to be the owner of q big band of young
CATTLE"
"Yes." chips in another questioner,
"but there is heap of trouble and dan
ger of being caught in this having to
to make a fire every time to heat your
branding iron. I've been told that there
is a kind of acid that can be doped upon
the iron which will produce the same
effect as the scorching heatin branding.
"Good enough Now you just get me
on to that acid racket, and I'll take you
in as partner. We'll have more cattle
and money than anybody inside of five
years. ."-Virginia Enterprise.

Progress i'm Spain.

Signor Costanz Stella, who was one Of
the Italian deputation which visited
Spain this summer, has published a
very interesting notice of his journey,
and in it he quotes some figures which
show that Spain, though still very back
ward as compared with some nations,
has made great progress since the be-
ginning of the century. "ln l799," he
says, "the population of Spain scarcely
reached l0,OO0,00O. but at the end Of
1882 it exceeded 5000, 900, this being
tantamount to an increase of $40 per
1000 inhabitants every year. The agri-
cultural population, which was only
3,6l5, 900 eighty-hve years ago, is now
| 8, 32S, 900, and the area under cultiva-
tion has increased from 100000 to
1913, 100000 acres, while there are now
IS, ,0O0, 900 head of cattle as against just
half that number at the beginning OF the
century. The industrial population OF
Spain has risen from l, ,035, 600 to 3,03S. =
600, and the number of manufactures
ETC., from SS3 to 1891. The trade of
the country has increased in proportion,
the progress during the last twenty-five
years being particularly remarkable, as,
while the imports and exports together
amounted to only 25.S00,0 900 pounds in
1860, they have been gradually increas-
ing and now reach $1,000, 900. The in
crease extends to all branches of trade,
Cor while Spain now produces 46l 1885,
600 gallons of wine, of which about two
thirds are consumed in the country and
the remainder is exported, her railway
system, which but five years ago did
not reach 420O miles, is now not far
short of 5000 miles,"

Mathod of Irri cation.

The method of conveying water tc
trees. plants and cereals is an art to be
learned only by experience. A thor.
ough knowledge OF conducting the i've
giving fluid over the land means saw
ing in its use, better cultivation, aud an
increased production. The system varies
with the diverse conditions of different
countries, from the primitive water
wheel of the Egyptian peasant to the
ub.irrigation pipss of Southern Callfor-
mia. The earliest, the simplest and the
cheapest method is by flooding" by
this plan the water is made to cover the
whole area under tillage, to the re-
quired depth. From the nam
canal the cultivator conveys the
waier to his land by lateral
ditches. Very often number OF far
mers whose holdings lie contiguous.
unite in constructing the main Lateral
From this each opens sub.laterals or
field bitches, which carry the water to
all parts of the farm.
FLOODING.
The plan of "fooding" is the most
wasteful manner of applying water to
the soil, but it cannot be avoided In the
cultivation of cereals. With regular
slope the work is trifing, but in most
countries some outlay is required Tor
levelling surface inequalities, and pro-
viding for the equal distribution OF the
stream from points of vantage. When
the fall is slight, shallow bitches are run
from 40 to 100 feet apart in the drec.
ton of the slope; when the land is
sleeper they are carried diagonally to the
slope or made to wind around it. and from
these, by throwing up little dams from
point to point, the whole field is flooded.
These ridges or dams must have rounded
crests and easy slopes, so as not TO In.
terfere with the use of farming machin-
ery. By means of diagonal burrows and
dams it is claimed that one man can irrl-
gate twenty-five acres in day. This is
the plan which prevails in Colorado for
the raising of grain.
Iu the valley of Southern Arizona the
labor aud cost of applying water to the
soil is, perhaps, less than in any other
region OF the irrigated area of Western
America. The land is almos. as level as
a floor, with a gradual slope from
foothills to the streams. The farms are
checked off into plats by shallow furrows.
into which the water from the sub.
laterals finds its way and is quickly con.
veyed to every part OF the field. The
process is SO simple that an inexperienc-
ed hand finds no difficulty in soon mas
tering the details. 1t may be said that
in "fooding" the aim should be to put
no more on the land than it will at once
and equally absorb or can part with
without creating current that will
carry off sediment. Where there is a
heavy fall and the water has been allow
ed to flow too freely, the result has been
the washing away of all the fertilizing
elements.-Hon. Patrick Hamilton, in
Arizona Citizen.

The men who framed the White
House had about as inadequate au idea
of the strains to which their work was
to be subjected as did those who framed
the Constitution. When the army and
navy reception was held soon after the
installation of Mrs. Cleveland in her
new home, the crowd filled the porch,
packed the grand staircase and spread
all over the second floor. Those who
were familiar with the weak points Of
the old structure were on pins and
needles. The next day an examination
revealed the justice of their fears. The
grand staircase had sagged seven inches
at some points and the floor from two to
FIVE inches. 1t cost $3.50 to get the
staircase into line again, and an exam
nation of the floor beams showed that
some of them had been sawed half way
through by careless gas men, aud

Prof. Foster. the meteorological of
Burlington, Iowa, predicts great storm
period extending from December 4th to
18th, during which will occur some of
the most destructive winter storms of
recent years. These storms will be
much of the same nature as the billiards.
Of last January. Heavy snow and high
winds will greatly impede railway travel,
and he advises the railways to prepare
for blockades that will occur in the
Western States about December 9TH and
reach the Eastern States December 9th.
There will be energetic electric disturb.
ances that will affect telegraph and
taI.phone lines. He suggests that
many lives and much property can be
saved from loss by making preparations

t,ur prima ballerina, Siguora Limide

who told them that she was devout and
never failed to pay her respects TO the
Pope once year. This statement com
pletely won the confidence of the pious
sisterhood, and at length the Prioress
inquired in what way the lady spent
her life. The artistic innocently replied;

Elephants at Play.

From Blackwood's Magazine
 There would be the fine old patriarch with his harem and the young ones performing the most fantastic aquatic gambols. The clumsy disportings of baby elephant, at a loss to know how to give full vent to the ex- tolerance of his spirits, is one of the most grotesque sights imaginable, and one only to be witnessed under such exceptional condi- tions as have described. Looking through a psephole in the brushwood screen one could watch them at one's leisure. On one occasion, on their return from the water in which they had been padding and splashing themselves to the jungle, the whole herd would have walked straight into the hole in which I was squatting had I not shown my self. had already marked the father of the flock as the one I intended to kill, and he was not ten paces from me when fired. He stopped while the herd scattered, and fearing he would charge, I gave him the second bar rel and he sank penderously to the earth. In my excitement did not stop to reload, but making sure he was dead rushed out to se- cure my trophy. I had just got out my knife and was stretching out my hand to lay hold of his tail to cut it off, when to my disgust he slowly rose and walked off after the la dies. leaving me amazed and confounded and the subject of 8 good deal of ohaff on the part of my companions. I was moro lucky with a wild boar an hour or two afterward. He too WAS approaching me in direct line coming from the jungle when I fired at him, upon which hs made a rush straight at me. The impetus was so great that, though he re- ceived the second barrel full in the forehead, he actually rolled dead into the hole.
