A Buffalo Ranch.

A company has been formed in Win
nipeg for the purpose of breeding buff
falo. They have purchased out the
herd of Mr.. Bedson, of Stony Noun
tain, and will go extensively into the
business. The ranch is TO be situated
near Winnipeg, and il is calculated that
the animals Will be able TO rustic for
themselves during the winter months.
The projectors are of this opinion. be
sc they say the buffalo were accus-
toned TO do so in their wild state.
Whether, depending ,uPon this. the
venture will be successful or not,
is q matter for much areu-
ment. We do not think that
buffalo will live in Manitoba dur
ing the winter without being fed. 1t
be argued that they have done
far, for they haven't. It is a well
known fact that in the winter the buff
falo all focked up TO the mountain
country, feeding dswn to Manitoba
and further east during the summer.
The company would have been wise to
select this country as the scene of their
operationS.-EI.

Doom OF the Range

Under the above heading the National

unction of the range industry in the

From present indications the system of
growing and fattenIng cattle on i'm
mense ranges will not continue many
years longer. There is such a demand
Tor the grazing lands for settlement.
and immigration 70 the west is so rapid
only from the old world, but from
the eastern States-that many of these
ranges must ere long cease to exist.
The land will, II the course Of time,
and that not a very long one, be all
divided up into private ownerships.
will then be grown. on a smaller
scale by individuals; and. as IL is for
the interest of the individual TO grow
the very best, il is fair u infer thatAhe
quality will be improved by the change
from 1.-THE present range system. which
does not permii of that careful seiecii n
breeding that individuals with
small herds can readily bestow. More
time will be required TO displace the
large companies. who have either pur-
chased or leased the tracts over which
they range; but even these. like the

Look after the colts in the pastures
every day If possible. 1t is hazardous
TO let Y ung horses run for weeks AT a
.ime as some farmers do without ever
seeing them.
The question whether Ito shoe or not
TO shoe" is being agitated again by
nearly all the agricultural papers. and
farmers are going along Just as they
did before in regard to the matter.
1t is alleged that horses which live on
the prairie hay in the west have never
been known TO have the CHAMBERS, and
horses troubled with this disease have
often seen cured. when fed upon this
hay.
You can not afford 70 III treat the
horses in which you have your money
invested. 1t is too expensive, # You
will onsider the matter in the light of
dollars and cents. Every lime you
abuse a horse you depreciate his yslue.
At this season horses kept in stables
on dry feed viii geedilv eat burdock
leaves. A few given daily are good for
them, helping digestion and purifying
the blood. Though bitter IN taste, yet
most are very fond Of them, and they
do not interfere with feeding dry hay as
other green herbage is apt to do.
II you would have buyers liberal with
you when you place yOur horses On the
market, if you would find a ready sale
at handsome prices, If you would like
TO invest your money in horse flesh TO
the best advantage, breed your mares
to the best stations within your reach.
There is no use trying - disguise the
fact that the best Is cheapest when II

Prof. Pedersen's COrnet Band and
Orchestra.

Shortly before noon to-day, Professor
Petersen and his cornet band and or
chestfal company started for Main
Street with their instruments to par
tally express the appreciation of the
salt Lake visitors for the kind treatment
they had received at the hands Of Gun
nison people. They were accompanied
by Mr.. w. II. II. Bowers, manager of
the excursion. and several other prom
inent men Of the visiting party. They
called at the Mayors Office and rem
deTed several OF their most beautiful
selections and were heart ly encored by
the crowd that soon assembled. The
band hen marched to the ReBieiS-Press
office. where IL rendered q fev more
choice pieces to the great qualification
Of the Office corps.
We have frequently spoken OF this
band as the Opera House Band. This
is not correct. For five years Professor
Petersen was leader Of the Walker
Opera House Band, but Is not nov. He
has retired from that routine work and
from the finest musicians in the Terri
tory and the east he has organized what
is fast becoming well known, as the Ped
ersen Cornet and Orchestra. IL is q very
strong combination AID u people will
long remember their most excellent
music in this city during their brief
stay.
The members are all fine 10 king
young men ami most kind and accom-
modating, as the managing committees
who so frequently called fos music can
testify. They we're at all times willing
to play and seemed only too glad to
crafty our people with their excellent
music. At the La Veta ball the or

Ancient and Historical BuIIdingS.

CORES pOndence ofthe Richmond Dlspatcn J
WILLIAMSBURG, Sept. Il, 1856.
On the grounds Of the College Of Will
liam and Mary, and in addition to the
main building, is the house OF the presi-
dent Of the college, erected in 1872,
during the presidency Of Rev. James
Blair, D. D. Prior to the siege OF
Yorktown it was the headquarters o.
Lord CORVALLIS. who required Bishop
Madison and family to yacate it and to
move to the college during his stay.
After the surrender Of Lord CORVALLIS
the building was used as hospital for
the sick and wounded French officers.
While thus occupied it was accidentally
burned. The King Of France, LouiN
XVI, TO rebuild it gave to the COL
lege $4,000, by which it was fully re-
stored. The present walls are believed
to be the original ones. The
building, spacious and comfortable,
is now occupied by the president OF
the college, Colonel B. S. ETell.
There is yet another building on the
college campus, the Bratierton, built
from the proceeds OF legacy Of Hon.
Robert Boyle for an Indian school
This legacy was invested in an English
estate called Braferton Manor. after
which this house vas named. Ii was
erected about 1920, and in it the Ia
diars had their recitation-rooms, sleep
ipg.apa rtmsnts, and mess-hall. Not
more than eight or ten attended in any
one year. They were taught "to read
ard write English, and were instructed
in the Christian religion, but on re-
turning to their own people they re-
lsDsed into idiotcy and barbarish."
IWestover Manuscripts.l The Indian
school was closed in 1776 because Of
the loss Of Braffsrton Manor.

AIrue STORY from Pawiucket.

E-NcuAbS hCNS4'+i
Some time ago the Pawtucket Ortho-
dox church was in need of some re-
pairs and embellishments, and car
penter was sent aloft to patch up the
steeple and put it in thoroughly good
shase. The reluctance Of the weather
vane to record the changes Of the wind
had long been proyerbial in the town
and the carpenter climbed clear up to
see il he could find out what was the
matter with it. What was his aston
ishment to discover that screw hai
been put through, apparently in recent
wears, in such way as TO imp'nge
upon the pivot and prevent the vaae
from turning except under very great
pressure.
The carpenter was astonished that
such an attempt should be deliberately
made to cripple the church vane aud
jmpair its usefulness, but he thought
before be removed the screw he would
report the matter and see whether bJ
any chance it had been put there by au-
thority. So he appealed to Deacon y.
the most prominent member OF tae
Board Of Trustees, and told him the
discovery.
"Have you any idea how the screS
came there, Descon!" the carpenter
asked in closing his story.
"Yes. | have" said the deacon.
Why, how was it!' ..
~ ordered it pat there mys'l'.
We're an orthodox church here, Want
you to understand, and We don't want
our weather-vane to 80 whi.iling ROAD
with every breath no more'n we do
I ordered that screw put in sos L
should take an ALFRED breeze to max
it CO."
