There are so, 600 900 of cattle in the
United States. Taking all ages into con-
sideration, earlier maturity that brings
many cattle to market at one and two
years old. and the sale of calves and
heifers, it Is safe to say one-fourth, or
Y 500, 900, go to the block every wear,
but there is no doubt about one-ffth of
the the cattle of the country, or 10 ,000,-
600 being killed every year. This would
require over ten million breeding COWS to
supply the herds, and we think over that
number breed regularly Foreign COM
merce and home demand, of course,
are the directions in which they
go. Commerce of all kinds REQUIRES
enough to send abroad, supply the East
eFn and Middle states that do not pro-
a1eeenough, city consumption, and the
. l4tSe. The great bulk is killed near the
pastures for farmers use, and village
uses and country town use The legiti-
mate sphere for the Chicago dealers is to
supply foreign canned meats, dressed
meats. and live stock in transit to more
Eastern markets. This has been what
we have been used to. 1t Is not easy to
estimate just how many this legitimate
trade requires. Prices are controlled. to
great extent, by Eastern demand.
for these legitimate uses are added a con-
siderable per cent. of the cattle formerly
killed in the country, and buyers are
limited and controlled and instructed
regarding prices, it is no wonder that
beef goes steadily down. The large
Western towns get their meats direct
from Chicago, as well as towns
and cities farther East. The cat
tie raised in the neighborhood
of these towns and cities, East
and West, that should be killed there,
must now go to Chicago. Consequently
much greater volume of beef is poured
into the Chicago market and an immense
leverage given to the buyer, while the
sellers from all quarters are at their |
mercy. Instead of local, independent |
butchers, the villages and towns and |
eities now have agents of the great pack |
ers, and the combine is just getting well !;
at work. The purchaser pays as much |
as when beef was high to the producer
The margin between the selling price in |
Chicago and in Europe has been wide |
this spring. What is the remedy for all |
this5 Are we to keep quiet and endure

Charlie Daggett was talking with a
GAZETTE reporter yesterday about cattle
and said that their cattle in Baylor
county were in better condition than he
had ever known cattle to be in Texas.
They are simply rolling fat, was his

The breeders of pedigreed cattle must
not permit themselves longer to indulge
the foolish fancy that every animal born
TO theHtsis worthy a place in the herd
book Because its progenitors are found
sthere. The cast of thought TO-DAY is to
have good beef rather than poor breed
ers. All calves dropped even by the
same sire and dam are not worthy of be-
ing kept for breeders, will reflect no
credit on the breeder or the blood, much
less add to his character or his purse It
will pay to use the knife freely and keep
only the most worthy, for in the long run
it will pay better to sell two
bulls at 500 each than ten at
half the price. Shorthorns Here
ford and Polled cattle all make good
beef, and if properly handled can be got
ten rid of at thirty months old and real
lie handsomely, whilst the lesser num-
Der of bulls will bring vastly more
money.
The number of pedigreed cattle an
nually dropped on farms in the West now
adays is too great to warrant the holding
of them all for breeders, even though
they were worthy, which they are not,
hence to alter three fifths of them and
make good steers would be to enhance
the value all round and avoid very much
of the labor attending the rearing of
blooded animals. One of these DAYS
when the Missouri Shorthorn Breeders
associations can find time to hold a meet
ing and elect body of representative
men as executive officers we shall hear
once in a while some good speeches on
this and kindred topics and arouse the
now dormant interest in all that pertains
to the breeding business. Il Colemans'

1t has been generally understoea that
herds of buffalo are almost altogether
extinct, except in the YELLOWSTONE park
Occasionally on the rouHd-up small
bunch was come across, but within the
last few years this has bee1fsSo in free,5ssssx
that every such event eahse lassssg
comment. A rumor that asBand
OF buffalo were on thS red,
desert seyenty-five miles wsst of
Rawlins, Wy. T.. aroused the Intention
of ranchman named w. A. Williams,
who started with two hired men last
Thursday to hunt the bison. They had
no difficulty in coming across a bunch
of about fifty of the buffalo and they set
about capturing one alive, but such was
their success that they succeeded in las
SONG six. One of these, big fine bull,
was hitched to a wagon and finally threw
himself in such a way as to break his
neck. The head of the dead buffalo
reached Laramie City to-day, having
been shipped by Williams to his brother.
The other five buffalo were taken to the
Williams ranch at Rock Dale, in Carbon
county, where they will be cared for until
such time as they may be sold to a show
firm.

The Fort Benton River Press talks
cheerfullY of the outlook as follows: The
hearts of the stockmen and farmers are
still being made glad by a continuous
fall of rain. Although most of the
grass on the ranges is pretty thoroughly
cured there are many places where it is
still green. The present rains will con-
tinue its growth, while the streams and
other watering places for stock VIII re-
ceive new supply. Gardens and late
sown grains will come forward with
rush, and where no yield of grain was
expected from halt to two thirds of
crop will be harvested. These rains are
full of promise to the drouth-stricken
ranges ana farms of Montana.

A kind, pious admoniIion to an err
ing child. accompanied with Il grieved
countenance, full of tender love, and a
fond kiss, will be more elIectual for good
than many smart cruel blows with a
stick, even if preceded by n long, SOL
emn, religious lecture, and fervent
prayer.
The foundation of all education, from
the time Il child first begins to learn,
is thoroughness. Wha lcvcr is at
tempted must be carried out thorough
ly, until the learner becomes master
of the subject. Thoroughness is the
groundwork of all good habits of mind,
and Il child's mind is as much a bum
die of habits us its body. For this pur-
pose it is well to strengthen the memo
ry by insisting upon children learning
something by heart every day; it cul-

rately, as the eye accustoms itself TO

A UniYersalist Compliment to MethO.
diSm.

The Univcrsalist Record, published
in Newark, n. j., has an editorial on
New YOrk's SS,00O,0 cathedral which
contains this reference to A1ethOdism:
We have 10 representative Church
in this country; or, if we have, it is
not the Episcopal Church. More than
any other that Church hath foreign
air." 1t is one of the smaller of the
leading sects. 1t is essentially a
Church of the cities, and largely of the
eastern cities. It's cords of sympathy
stretch backward, across the ocean, to
the Land of its birth. More nearly
thai any other, the Methodist Church
is representative of nineteenth h-century
American religion. Not only by its
moral earnestness, by its democratic
spirit and its aggressiveness, by its dl-
rectness and business-like methods and
it's good humor, but even in its doc
trinal failures at logic, its theological
patchwork, it is representative of this
energetic time of transition, this hur-
rying age of fact and change. Calvin
ism belongs to the past. Universalism
belongs to the future. MethOdism is
of the present, and has the right, if
any Church has, to erect the building
which shall introduce the religion of
the nineteenth century to the student
of the twenty-ninth. The Methodists,
however, would not build an $4,000, 900
church, if they had $l00,0OO,000 to
spare. They would erect thousands Of
chapcls all over the world. They are
intent upon winning the world to
CHRIST, not with superb architecture,
but with moral conviction and convic-
ton of sin. They are not concerned
to startle the future with a display Of
fine art, for which religion shall be
taken as the excuse. They are quite
content with houses of worship which
shall be comfortable, not offensive to
taste, roomy, in which multitude can
hear the preacher and find their way to
the mourner's bench. They are be-
nevolent folk, who spread their hands
abroad, and would feel that any such
centralization of power were sad mis-
representation of their own spirit and
purpose.
Methodism puts forth no claims to
be the only Church in America, or the
only American Church." AS to our
mission and spirit, the Universalist ed
itor has described us as we ought to be.
GOD grant that we may conform more
and more unto the ideal! And if our
Universalist friends will initiate what
they have so we'll described, we will
not ask them to become Methodist, but
will hail them as co-laborers in the
salvation of the world, which can be
saved only "by moral conviction and
conviction of sim" Methodists can
not accept the motto placed by the
UniuersaHst Record under its title,
Zone God. One Destiny" The first
part we accept; the second contradicts
the first. The creed of Methodism
from the beginning has been this:
One God and tUo destinies: one glo-
rious destiny, depending upon faith
and obedience to GoDv another a
dreadful destiny, the result of volun-
tary unbelief and sin.-NeaO York

Rev. DIR. J. NJ. Leavett, forty years
a minister of the Protestant Episcopal
Church and editor of the Church Re-
view has left that communion and gone
to the Reformed Episcopal Church.
Here are few sentences from his let
ter of resignation believe the An
glican communion to be mixture of
political compromises and irreconcila-
BILE contradictions. In the old Prayer
Book clergyman is called minister
now a minister is called a priest. Ira
dition has come to over-balance Scrip
ture. 1t may be thought small mat
ter, but ritualism roots itself in the
word priest. I renounce it forever no
man shall ever give me that title again.
Again, the doctrine of apostolic success
sion lay on me like an iceberg. This
doctrine and rriestIy prerogative 60 to-
gether. 1t is to me abhorrent that ]
should acknowledge as a Protestant
minister man who wears scapular
to protect him from lust and purgato-
ry. Ritualism is sitting Protestant
ism in the Anglican Church. The
Bishops of the Episcopal Church now
treat as servants, not as equals. other
Protestant ministers. They will sit on
the same platform with thee minis
ters, but they will not admit them to
Episcopal altars. In this city you can
confess to an Episcopalian minister,
you can be absolved by an Episcopal
minister, and you can have prayers
said for the repose of the dead, if not
actually have the dead prayed to by
an Episcopal minister. Do you won
der that people who like this sort OF
thing in time get to prefer the coin to
the counterfeit and 60 into the Roman
Catholic Church? I thank God that I
am going in the opposite direction.
