BUNCH GRASS SEED.

BUNCH GRASS SEED.
ssThe recent cold weather in Ne
vada has played the mischief with
the livestock interest" john Ham
bershom OF Reno said Yesterday.
You seem rot to have heard OF itdonw
here, but it is the TACT that losses
have been made heavy. 1t has all
grown out of improvidence OF a
great many growers. They have
been trying to tide their stock
through without hay. On top OF
this stock was in poor condition. be-
cause they have had too many on a
given amount OF land. This made
the stock in poor flesh, and not
prepared to go into raw Winter,
like that We have had lately in Ne
vada.
al believe the losses Of cattle in
. great many sections will be 40
per cent. and of sheep they will be
greater, say not less then so per
cent. Sheep can't do nothing in the
snow. They are powerless, and cat
tie, when once they get weak, can't
do much either at paving in the
snow. A steer is good deal like
. cock. He goes about SO long.
+ and if the weather is still hard, he
gives in. His vitality is gone. and
since he hasn't the strength to dig
in the snow for feed, and there is
none provided for him, he speedily
goes over the road.
"About the most sensible cattle
rancher I know of is Hickey, over
IN the Humboldt Valley. He is
the exception. He put up this
year, as he always does large
amount of hay. The result is when
the storm came on he began to fork
it out to his cattle, and they have
come out to sleek as weasles. All
the hay cost him, too, was 80 cents
q ION in the stack. One would
think everybody would make hay
when it so cheap, but history goes on |
repeating itself. They lose stock
and still they don't guard against
it the next Winter.
"Horses have got through the
Winter better. A horse has better
travelling powers and is a better
digger than a steer. If he doesn't
find what he wants in one place
he moves on to a better. No mat
ter if the snow is pretty deep. he
finds an amount Of either white sage
or bunch grass to take him through.
"With the average mind there is
great deal of mystery about the nu-
tritive powers OF the native Nevada
bunch grass. People don't gener-
ally understand why, barren as Ne
ada looks, there is anything to sus-
tain stock, and they can't under
stand oftentimes why cattle come
out looking as fat as butter. The
reason of it is on account OF the
seed of the bunch grass. The seed
is very heavy in the top OF the
grass, and it is full of oil and this
oil sustains life longer under more
trying times than any other feed
known. Up North, You know, in
the far Arctic regions, the people
subsist by living on whale biubber..
It Is the grease that carries them
through. Nothing else colld do it.
Just so with the livestock in Ne
yada. There is no tame feed pro-
duced that will keep stock up like
this bunch grass, and next to it IS
the white sage.
81 hear cattlemen in the Hum
boldt valley particularly now say
ing that here after they will make
little bunch grass hay, anyway, SO
that if an extreme cold spell comes
on, they can feed for brief time
and thus save their stock.-Exam-
liner.

The y. Y. Press gives the following
interesting and instructive tariff talk from
Mr.. John Sloan Of the Dolphin Manufae-
turing Company, Paterson, y. j.:
My elder brother, William Sloan,
started in the carpet trade in 1913. l was
clerk with him, and afterward became a
partner. He and / were the original w. &
j. Sloan. We imported entirely. There
was no manufacturing done in this country
Today, as you know, all our carpets are
made al home. We Americans are the great
est Of carpet manufacturers.
well, under Free Trade we paid the i'm
porter for our carpets much more than we
nov pay the manufacturer, Notwithstanding
| the protective tariff tax as they call it-or
| might say because of this tax
For instance the duty on Brussels car
pets previous TO 1883 was 40 cents a square
| yard, plus 80 per cent al valorem. Since
| 1888 it has been 80 cents square yard, plus
~ per cent. Well, in the practically Free
| Trade times, from l843 to 1850, say, we i'm
ported Brussels carpets at a cost of 81 40 pei
yard. Today American Brussels of much
better quality sells at from 95 cents to ST.
| % 2 yard.
Again, tapestry carpets paid duty of 2s
cents a square yard, plus IS per cent ad
yaiorem before 1888, and since then they pay
20 cents a square yard and 80 per cent ad
yalorem. Well, when tapestry carpets first
came in the importers price was "a cents q
square yard Now thu manufacturers pric.
is from 80 to ~ cents square yard.
The cheap hemp carpets we used to buy
then from the foreign manufacturer for from
30 TO 80 cents a square yard. We sell then
now as manufacturers for 25 cents square
yard to the jobbers. There is a duty of {
cents a square yard on them. Before lss;
| 1t was cents.
| "A free trader saysthat this duty of or
cents is tax, and if taken off would make
the carpets cost but IL or IA cents. Well,
can reply that when il was off | have solo
many of these same carpets for over 30 cent:
yard, and never any for less than that
How were wages in those old days, Mr.
| SloanI" asked the tariff talker.
AN ordinary laborer got IS cents a day
A skilled laborer got 81 % day.
do you remember about the cost of liv
| ing:"
1T was much higher. I remember We
paid then $50 for barrel of flour that We
buy now for from 81 80 to So, and every.
thing else in proportion"

Slowly but surely there are clustering
around the island of Mt. Desert, those bits of
history which in the eyes of many tourists,
constitute the prime conditionals of a resort.
ITS so old, YOU know" $50 romantic, $50
titled of the old country" that it is really the
only proper place to go. Here is the latest
A once famous dweller on Mt. Desert Is
land, Me, was Nine. Millken, who lived to
be 100 years of age. Her home was on the
north side of Pretty Marsh harbor. Here
the madam and her husband. Samuel Milliken,
(who was descended from a Scotch baronet,
Sir Hugh Milliken of Aberdeen. Scotland, J
spent long useful happy lives. Nine. MILL
ken was doctress, and there being no roads
but only foot and bride paths at that time on
Mt Desert. she rode on horseback to all
parts of the island, and sometimes to the
main land. which could only be reached with
horse at low water. She also rowed and
sailed to and from the neighboring islands,
attending to her professional duties.
While all these bits of history are very
pleasant and entertaining to the tourist we are
of the opinion that the grandeur of the
scenery, beautiful combinations of inland
shore aud mountain. and the artificial adorn-
ments in lawn, terrace, villa and cottage,
render it the chief watering place of this
coast

Mitchell was appointed chef clerk of the
Railway Mail Service in place of Mr.. r. E.
Graves, transferred. but Mr. Mitchell de-
clned to accept Office and Mr.. Graves agreed
to continue in the place temporarily. The
facts are that the pay on the road as railway
clerk is $500 year and every other week
off, while the pay of chief clerk is but SI4o0
a year and steady work all the time. 1t can
thus be seen that a railway clerks birth is
preferable to that of chief clerk.

The chairs which are rented for a penny
each at shows in Hyde Park, London, have
a curious history, which dates back to shortly
after the battle of Waterloo, when an Eng
fish general, who had done good service,
found himself reduced to extreme poverty.
The government of that day acknowledged
his past services by granting him and his
heirs forever the right of letting on hire
chairs at Hyde Park The general gathered
his resources and started with hundred
chairs. There are now 1900 chairs, the
income from them amounting to over Sj0,-
600 year. This sum goes to two pretty
young girls who are the only direct descen-
dants of the general.
