degree. They have stood the test

acre at the FIRST cutting, and expect
FIVE tons to the acre this year, they
are quite willing to take it in as good
land. In fact, they have homesteAds
on the same kind Of land, in the same
region.
The Lost r yer ranchers will har-
vest good crops tins year. There is
plenty of water, the region abounds
with wild hay standing three feet high,
aud all the settlers are cutting hay on
unclaimed land, prior to going to
work on their own hay.
Beef cattle is in good demand, and
has been since the opening OF the
roads in the spring. Three and four
year.old steers for which only $17 to
$23 was offered last fall now bring
t45 to $50, cash, at the ranch, as
they are nice and tat, aud in splendid
condition.
A revival Of interest in the mines
of that region promises to give the
settlers home market for everything
they can raise. The Big Copper
mines at Era have been sold to a
strong company who have already
purchased the smelter attached, aud
are putting men to work. The COM
pany intends to keep 40 men steadily
employed; and this will cause other
properties in the vicinity to be worked.
Near Era there are also signs of
an early revival of interest in mine
operations. 1t will be remembr red
THAI, some years ago, the Bannack
company made a miserable failure
there aud .thst its $4,000 mill has
since lain idle. 1t was stated at the
time that the trouble was the failure
of the company to go deep enough to
strike the vein; and that, on this &C.
count, the miners spent their strength
against blowout.
What this wealthy company failed
to do has been done by q company
of three or four prospcctors whose
industry and knowledge of mining
was their only capital. They own a
claim in the same gulch as the Horn
Silver, upon which they have generally
put in the winters, working elsewhere
in summer to earn money with which
to buy their winter supplies. Tie
claim is called the Ella, and it I'D.
joins the Horn Silver, on the same
vein. BY going about 200 feet deep
or than the Horn Silver workings
they cut the vein and found it over
IL feet in width and carrying such
rich ore that . handsome profit has
been realized upon several shipments
to Blackfoot since spring.

Stanley's Lost Ring.

A curious story has just been made
public as TO the restoration of the ring
which Mr.. Stanley lost in Africa. 1t ap-
pears that when the Anglo-American ex-
pedition started for Africa Mr.. Stanley was
presented with a ring, on which were en-
grayed his name, the name of the expedi-
tion and the date. This ring he wore
while exploring the lakes in Central
Africa on his first march across the dark
continent, when it was missed, being
either stolen or lost. After eight years
it came into the possession of a Welsh
missionary to the Congo, the Rev. w.
Hughes, now President of the Congo In
stitute at Colwyn Bay, who purchased it
from native and brought it home. On
his return the other day the missionary
forwarded the ring to Mr.. Stanley as a
wedding memento. The explorer, In &C.
knowledging its receipt, expressed great
surprise and delight that it should have
followed him from the darkest regions of
Africa.

Catching Rats With Pct Snake.

Thomas Oxley, farmer of Lincoln
County, w. Va, who lives near Grifiths-
vile, has queer pet, says the Pittsburg
Dispatch. 1t is huge black snake, eight
feet six inches long. The snake has been
an adjunct of the farm for twelve years
and is considered by Mr.. Oxley as among
his most valuable possessions.
1t stays about the barn summer and
winter, and is the most indefahga6le ex-
terminator Of rats, mice and other yermin
ever owned by Oxley.
''Jim, as the snake is called, is per
fectly tame and docile, and answers 10
his name as promptly as the family dog
or cat. He is fond of being petted by
the family and seems TO highly appreci-
ate acts Of kindness. jim casts his coat
at regular intervals Of twelve months and
every one Of his suits have been kept by
Mr.. Oxley as curiosities.
The big black fellow never attempts to
harm any living thing except the rodents
about the farm aud them he keeps com
pletely exterminated. Mr.. Oxley wou, !
not part with him for a large sum OF
money. This, it is believed, is the only
instance where a huge black snake has
been domestieated and become useful.

Russian Soldiers in the Country.

One sees less of the military element
in provincial Russia than might have
been expected. There are camps at
every good-sized town-a tented field
for in Russia the army goes into camp
all summer. But garrison towns are few
and far apart, and it is only by bearing in
mind the vast extent of Russian territory
that one can come TO accept as probable
the numerical claims of its army.
1t is curious to see soldiers in uniform
working in the harvest fields ormending
the roads. The pay of the Russian SOL
dier is only seventy kopecks month
less than Uncle Sam pays his boys in
blue per day. As an offset, however,
the Russians are permitted to hire out as
laborers or artisans-anything they can
find to do. In the cities the soldiers of
the garrison usually have the preference
over Others as supers in the theatres, and
among them are often found amateur &C &.
tors, singers and musicians of consider
able talent. In the provinces they work
at harvesting, blowing, ditch-digging or
anything the large landed proprietors
can find for them to do.
In every village are young men who
have returned home from their three
years military duty. The Russian peas
ant breads going to the army, but when
he returns is Immediately proud of his SER
vice. He then considers himself far su-
perior to those whom three years before
he would have given an ear to change
places with In order to remain at home.
The secret of exaltatIon is that while in
the barracks he has received a very
meagre education and knows thing or
two more than the rustics about him.
The military burden, apart from the
expenses of keeping up the army, seems
to sit lightly enough on the population.
Neither the eldest son nor son on
whom depends the support of his parents
is required to serve. The young man
who can pass certain examination is re-
quired to serve only one year in the reg
ular army as a volunteer recruit.-Neu

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Mature plans for fall work.
Select good seed corn early.
Make new strawberry bed.
Fall plowing is now in order.
Sheep need salt, and should be sup
piled regularly, once week.
The crossroads stallion and the scrub
bull must "step down and out"
Thumb and finger pruning will save
knife and saw pruning later on.
A good practice is to grow stock in
summer and fatten it in the winter.
A mixture of pigs, corn and clover is
recommended as a remedy for mortgage.
Give your calves shelter from the suns
rays, and all the cold water they want to
drink.
Endive should be set out this month
and kept well worked to induce quick
growth.
Prepare pile of suitable and we'll
rotted soil for potting the winter supply
Of plants.
Skillful use and proper care would
double the effective service of farm i'm
plements.
Don't fool away time trying to influ-
ence sex in breeding. None Of the rules
work we'll.
A sharp knife or pair of scissors is
the proper thing with which to gather
cucumbers.
During the hot, dry season it is COM
mendable to mulch the newly set trees,
shrubs and bushes.
There are few crops that will respond
as readily to thorough and frequent cul-
tiyation as late cabbage.
By being careful not to let young
calves gorge themselves you will seldom
be troubled by their having the scours,
if their food is all right.
There is no excuse for having slov-
enly yard of fowls. If man has no
time to attend to his fowls, better tell
him to sell them at once.
Weeds are bearing seeds now, and
but short time is required for the
seeds to ripeu. Delay in getting rid of
weeds means increased work next sea-
son.
1t is the number of bushels that you
harvest anl not the number of acres that
you 60 over to get it that determines
your profit. Remember this when pre-
pairing the ground and seed ing it.

A Noisy Fish.

At recent meeting of the Berlin Phys
biological Society Professor Moebius de-
scribed peculiar fsh-which he had met
with in Mauritius. While on visit to
that island last year he observed bright,
blue-colored fish in the waters of the har-
Dor, which, when caught and held in the
hand, emitted from its interior most
striking noise, like that of drum. A
careful examination of the creature failed
to reveal any obvious movements, with
the exception of one part of the skin ly-
ing just beyond the gill-slit, which was
in continuous vibration.
The portion of the skin which vibrates
stretches from the clayicle to the bron-
chial arch; it is provided with four large
bony plates and lies over the swim blad-
der, which in this fish, for the most part,
projects out of the trunk muscles. Be
hind the clavicle is a curiously shaped
long bone, which is attached to the cla-
vicle at one point in such a way as to
form lever with two arms. The long
arm Of this bony lever is imbedded in the
yentral trunk muscles, aud is capable OF
easy movement to and fro. The short
arm slides during this movement over the
rough inner side Of the clayicle, and gives
rise to a cracking noise. This noise is
then intensified by the swim bladder,
which lies in close proximity to the short
arm of the lever, and acts as a resouator.
