should bear in mind the old and true
adage that "the fruits of success ripen
slowly" Many failures could he traced
to Impotence in waiting for results.
Breeders of stFotting horses have learned
or soon viii learn, that early maturity is
not the most desirable qualification i'll a
horse, The same rule will hold good
With regard to the heavier breeds of
horses. 1t takes time to build up a con-
stitution that will stand the wear and
teal Of farm or street work. A growthy
young horse may have the size, but it re-
quires time to give it the stamina. Be
cause a horse has grown large enough for
all practical purposes in a few years is
il reason why lie would be more likely
to be soft and easily injured. 1t Is easy
enough to add several years to the life of
a horse by not abusing him when lie is
young.

The success of the United States
with national parks on a grand scale
has inspired the Canadian govern
ment with q hope OF success in the
same direction, hence the effort to es-
tablish q national park IN the North
western territory on the Bow river.
There is plenty Of room in that region
for a park OF almost any size, since
the territory is yer one fourth as
large as the United States, with lecs
than $4,000 population. The propos-
ed park is Immediately north Of Mon
taaa, and in course Of time, perhaps a
long time, 4 railroad between the Vel
lowstone park and the Canadian park
may be laid, SO that visitors to the
one may also refresh their eyes with a
sight of the other Boomerang.

Too Too For Anything.

A scheme is no foot for running ;
Steamboat on the Missouri this season be
tween the Three Forks and Great Fails
a distance Of about $50 miles. The boat
it is said will carry from fifty to one
hundred tons. II L. u visionary scheme
The current oftiie upper Missouri is tee
swift in many places. especially at Half
breed rapids. f@9a steamer to make head
way against il, and h6oidss there arc many
places where the water is too shallow,
except in the early part Of the summer,
to float anything bat a skiS.-intcr Noun
tain.
The Inter Mountain editors knowledge
of the upper Missouri is exclusive. and
we fear was gained by making one trip
from Helena to Great Fails Il year or two
ago, under such conditions as to make it
difficult for him to distinguish between IL
beer lottle and the rocky cliffs wlich
oyerhang the river in the canyon. But to
be serious, it is not the intention to u
the boat against the rapids, but two boats
are already constructed, one OF which
will pIy between Great Falls and the rapids
and the other will ply above the rapids to
points on the upper Missouri, as far as
Townsend. The portage around the
rapids is cas-; and will not exceed one
fourth mile in distance. For the present
season, the main traffic will no doubt be
in passengers, but suppose it was freight
the transfer from one boat to another
would amount to nothing. There is no
doubt but that the navigation of the up
per Missouri will become in time il mat
ter Of vast importance, and the iaproyo-
mcnt Of the river will necessarily follow.
Following is 9 description of one Of the
boats:
Judge IIilger, of the Prickly Pear
valley, was in Helena on Sunday and tcll
an Independent reporter about the steam
er he will put ON the Missouri above
Great Falls this season. The vessel is be-
ing built in Dubuque, Iowa. by a famous
firm of Steamboat builders, and is con-
tracted to be ready for shipment on the
25tl of this month. She will receive a
practical test at Dubuque and there
after will be taken apart and shipped to
Montana. The vessel. is of steel and her
general Dimensions are SOHO feet. Her
motive power will consist of q 25-horse
power engine, and with her full equip
ment will draw thirteen inches and make
a speed Of twelve miles per hour. She
will ply between Great Fails and Towns
end and perhaps father up the river and
is intended entirely for passenger traffic
excursions and pleasure parties who
will desire to visit the incompatible
scenery of the upper river,
