For the HOGS.

In the first place pure air and water
are numbered among the essentials. l
don't mean by this that mud or dirt is
particularly Objectionable, but I mean
that the water should not be stagnant
or rendered impure by any decaying or
d~ecomposing element. Dead animals of
every kind should be removed, and even
decaying vegetation is not necessary to
prosperity of the pig. His food must be
somewhat varied. He is fond of corn,
and its extensive use in swine feeding is
much less Objectionable in the south
than it is in more northern states. There
it is hard and finty; here it is soft and
more easy of digestion. But do not feed
corn alone. Wheat bran mixed with
water and fed before souring makes a
first class change, and the hog that has
corn in the morning and bran in the
evening ought to be contented if he has
free access to grass in its season.-Cor.

a Famous Woman Surgeon.

Nine. Ribart, the ex-grisette, who was
the first European to practice medicine in
the Turkish harems, was as skillful as
most of her contemporaries. The woman's
career is more romantic than most fiction.
Her lover in Paris was a medical student;
she devoured his text books with more
avidity than he did her novels. She passed
a brilliant examination at twenty-six and
went to Cairo to practice; her patients were
soon numbered by the hundreds, but the
excuses into which she plunged resulted in
her incarceration in a lunatic asylum. She
then sought a new career in Cochin China
and at won the admiration of the
French Inhabitants. So speedily did her
skill as a surgeon make her famous that
she in a short time became physician to the
court, and was to have operated on the
queen mother of AMMAN for cataract. The
day before she was to lave relieved the old
queen, who had been blind for years, the
wonderfully beautiful and skillful DR..
Ribart died.-New York Telegram.

PROFIT in SHEEP.

A Leaf from the Experiences Of n d.
kota Farmer. ~
As an illustration Of the profit in sheep
raising the subjoined statement is made.
Ben Holcomb, residing four miles east
of Darlington, is one of the most practi-
cal farmers in Foster county. He has a
quarter section of pasture land and a half
section of farming land all under cult
walton. He has tried wheat raising and
stock raising, and his experience is
worthy of thoughtful consideration by
the farmers of Stutsman or any other
county.
In December, 1887, he bought in Wis
consin $50 head of sheep. From this
flock he sheared in 1883 1,700 pounds of
wool; in 1889, $500 pounds, and in 1890
over $500 pounds. The wool clip for
1888 and 1889 brought him $500, that
of this year is estimated to be worth
$3.50, making a total of 81, $50 realized
from the wool clip. In addition he has
sold 1o5 head and slaughtered for his
own use rs head. The above shows how
remunerative his original investment Of
1926 has become. He has sold wool and
sheep from the original flock and in
crease which brought him in nearly
S 1900 in less than three years. But this
does not tell all Of the story. His origi-
nal flock of $50 has now increased to 314
sheep and 10 lambs.
In regard to the expense of keeping
sheep Mr.. Holcomb says: They practi-
cally cost Inc nothing. My boy and dog
did the herding and I raised my own
feed. I feed oat straw mostly. They
thrive on this. In the winter l feed a
little millet and barley. Sheep do not
waste their feed like a horse, which has
to have his oat bag tied O his head.
One COW will eat as much as seven sheep
and require as much care as twenty.
Mr.. Holcomb is Of the opinion that
twenty-five acres of wheat require more
work than his whole flock Of sheep, and
said his four head Of horses and two COWS
made him more trouble last winter than
the sheep. The cost of shearing is insig-
niicant. William Walker, who has
sheared all over this county, clipped his
flock at eight cents per head. He
sheared thirty-four head a day and made
good wages at that price. In 1888 Mr..
Holcomb received sixteen cents per
pound; in 1889, eighteen cents.
Mr.. Griffin reports Mr.. Holcomb as
follows: When I came to Dakota I
thought the money was in farming. I
now have a half section under cultiva-
ton and a quarter section of pasture
land. At present am so strongly Of the
opinion that the money is in the pasture
land that l am willing to rent my farm
on easy terms and turn my attention ex-
clusively to sheep.-Jamestown IN. d.

Thoroughbreds for Work,

MI. Brodhead, Of the WOODBURY. (Ky.)
horse breeding farm, writes in The Stock
Farm: =
"We have used thoroughbreds in the
plow, the carriage and under saddle, and
invariably they were gamer than ami
mails used for the same purposes that had
not the thoroughbred cross. A mule
whose dam is highly bred will outwear
several whose dams are not. They are
better in every particular. The draft
horse whose dam was thoroughbred is
gamer than the pure bred. The trotters
that we have had with thoroughbred
blood were gamer than those without it,"

Points of Interest,

A question to be commended to the
consideration of farmers is whether it
pays to keephogs f~attering until they at
tain the greatest weight possible, or to
sell them the moment they cease to fat
ten rapidly and save feed and get ones
money one This is something every
farmer can calculate for himself.
A wool grower advises sheep owners
to keep a well trained Scotch terrier in
the sheep barn; he will clean up the rats
and give notice Of the approach of
prowing urs or thieving tramps. The
sheep will o become familiar with his
presence, and he may u between their
legs OF over their backs without exciting
them in the slightest.
For enlarged joints in animals paint
the joint every day with tincture of
iodine till a blister is raised. Then leave
off for a week or till the blister has al
most disappeared. Repeat then the
painting. Continue this for six weeks or
two months, and the swelling will usu-
ally go down.
We should ike to see some of our pork
raisers make the experiment this fall of
feeding pigs on corn or corn meal with
out the cob, and at the same time feed
ing another batch on corn meal ground
with the cob. Authorities differ as to
the utility Of the cob meal, many con-
tending that it promotes digestion by
preventing the corn or meal from being
too concentrated. At any rate hogs de-
YOUR eagerly half burnt cobs for the
charcoal.
Darying and pig raising are two in
dustries that nature intended should 20
together.
It has been found that alfalfa will
grow and do well much further north
than was formerly supposed.
Two classes of horses invariably bring
good prices in the New York horse mar
ket. One is heavy draft animals weigh
ing 1900 pounds or more, the other styl-
ish carriage horses. Breeders should
take note accordingly.

DAN MANNING.
Sketch of a Soldier Pioneer and Success
4% full Stock Raiser.

"Dan Manning" was in the city yester-
day on his way back from the east. "He
rode in a palace car" this trip. "He hoofed
1t in 1872" While his ranch and stock is
on the Little Missouri in western Dakota,
Burleigh county claims him as one of her
citizens. He has a history as a soldier and
pioneer worth reading. Born in the state
of Illinois in 1916, his father died when
"Dan" was Z years old. He had but little
opportunities for education.
In July, 1861, at the age of Is, he enlisted
IN company /, SD Illinois Infantry, Colonel
7. w. Sweeny. With this regiment he
served three years and veteraned for an
other term, and served until July 2, 1865,
making four years. He was at the battle
Of Fort Donelson, Pittsburg Landing, Cor
NTH, luka, Chattanooga, Kenesaw, Atlanta
through Georgia. also north from Savan-
nah through South and North Carolina and
Virginia to Washington, with General
John A. Logan's corps, and was in the
grand review of troops returning
home at Washington City. He wit
a nes sents ths Sarn N' c. Of w GSiume Snsr% was
and Joe johnson held there conference.
His regiment lost 25O out Of 700 at Pitts
burg Landing, and on its final muster out
but five OF the old SD remained.
He settled at Bismarck %inss1S72, II got
his start by selling wood.
In 1876 he settled sixteen miles southeast
of Bismarck, and the township now bears
his-name "Manning township" His first
COW was bought with wood; from it and
other additions, his herd increased to 250
in 1884, when he decided to try a wider
range on the Little Missouri, north of the
Northern Pacific track.
In 1886 his herd had increased to $50, but
the winter was severe Il he lost about
fifty head. He made better arranements
for the future; his cattle and horses be-
came acclimated, and, now after selling
200, he has 500 head OF cattle,
and 40 head of horses.
He was married in 1879; has two children
he is we'll pleased with his location; has
had good health, and knows by experience
''That those who will buckle on their pack
saddle properly can carry. a heavy load
and reap a reward for their Efforts Dan

WOman'S Hold on Life.

From recent statistics it seems to be
shown that woman has a greater tenacity
of life than man, and that the Hebrew
women are the longest lived of any race.
Then, too, among insects the male perishes
at a relatively earlier period; in plants the
seminal blossoms die earliest and are pro-
duced in the weaker limbs, and female
quadrupeds have more endurance than
male.-Herald of Health.

Feed Crushed Bone to the Pullets,

AVIAN w Sbo i
Of the various things-in the way Of
food, comfortable quarters, etc.-that go
to the early development of the laying
qualities in pullets perhaps no one thing
has a greater influence in this direction
than raw, or better yet, baked bones. 1t
may in fact be set down as a rule that,
if every other seemingly necessary ele-
ment is supplied and that left out, there
is always vexatious delay in the appear
ance Of biddy's maiden egg. every
part helps a part" the old lady said as
she seized upon the fowls gizzard, and
by that rule bones help to make bones in
the growing chick.
Not only is it necessary to furnish the
material out Of which bones shall be
manufactured, but the shell of the egg
also is identical with the more substan-
tial portion of the bones, and additional
preparation should be made for that in
calculating the amount which shall sup
ply all the demands. Much of the food
given to fowls is so deficient in these
elements that they can be supplied in no
other way except by giving them out
right the actual bone material, as it is
found in the framework of larger ami
mals.-Poultry World.

LIVE STOCK COLUMN.
THE SMALLEST PAYING LIVE STOCK
ON THE FARM.

Some of the Newly Invented Conven-
fences That Make Bee Keeping a
Pleasure-A Woman Who Makes Her
Honey Yield a Handsome Profit.
Now that we have the movable frame
hive, together with all the modern i'm
provements in bee culture, even timid
ladies a don their bee wells and rubber
gloves and take care of a few colonies
without danger of being stung, thus fur
nishing their WI tables with fine honey.
Since MI. Alley has invented the drone
trap and queen cage combined we a
place one of these to each hive during
the swarming time, and go to church or
the Farmers institute without danger
of u beautiful golden Italians swarm
ing and going to the forest for a new
home during u absence. By removing
the wire nail in the trap the queen can
return to her home and former duties.
When the beekeeper returns he can, if
increase is desired, divide the bees, CIV
ing II part to the queen and the other
a matured queen cell.
If, however, honey and not an increase,
is the object in view, then go through
the hive destroying or removing to other
hives Or nuclei all queen cells, leaving
the queen, if she is a desirable one; if
not, this is a good time to supercede her
by a better and younger one. If there
is too much honey in the hive remove it
and place what you leave on the out
side, filling in the ENTER with fresh
comb or comb foundation. It is highly
important to see that there is but little
drone comb in the hive. for we do not
want a lot Of worthless, no%n-producing
consumers.
1t is estimated by good authority that
two inches square is a sufficient amount
for each colony, Now, let all the bees
remain in the same hive. See that it is
we'll shaded and ventilated from the bot
tom, and with proper care the swarming
for the season is over with that colony.
In working for extracted honey it is
much easier to keep down the swarming
impulse than when working for comb
honey.
MI. Alley has recently invented a
swarming hive, so that you can place
your empty prepared hive side by side
with the one that is expected to swarm.
Place the hiver on the two hives, and
when they swarm they will hive them
selves.
Don't be afraid of overproduction. If
there is 10 market for your honey create
one by working up your home market.
If we have anything to sell we must
let it be known. Right here in Bolton I
have an excellent market for my honey.
I assure you that the demand was not
created by my sitting back in my rocker
and taking life easy, but it was by Wig
orous, active work.
One gentleman here says that I have
ruined his family; they will no longer
eat sorghum and chemical sirups, but
must and will have honey. He first
bought a small bucket. Now he orders
by the ten gallon can. In the last two
years I have sold $500 pounds of honey
and have had orders for over 1000
pounds since my supply was exhausted.
You will see from this that honey is not
a drag upon the market.-Mrs. S. E.
Sherman in Farm and Ranch.

NEW YoRK, Nov. le.-At the meet
ing of the directors of the Pacific Mail
this afternoon George j. Gould was
elected president and J. B. Houston,
vice-president, Jay Gould. George
Gould and Russell Sage were elected di-
rectors. This is a decided victory for the
Goulds and a defeat for G. p: Hunting
ton. Last May Huntington caused
George Gould's defeat for reelection to
the presidency because Gould proposed to
put in steamers between Tacoma and
Japan and China. This would be to the
advantage OF the Northern Pacific and
the disadvantage of the Huntington's
Southern Pacific, hence Huntington's
opposition.
George Gould said to a reporter: my
election was due to my having decided to
take back the interests in the company
with which | parted last Nav. l was
actuated in part by the reports spread
abroad that | had been unfriendly to the
company and had pursued a policy I'M
friendly to ITS prosperity L find the
affairs OF the company In excellent con-
dition. There is harmony among all the
members of the board of directors. "
Jay Gould said: The new board
auOplo tue purity VI hOIhiuB III uhTu1Oul
with overland roads in order that rates may
be maintained and all concerned get a
share of the profts."
The board of directors is: Jay Gould,
George Gould, Russell Sage, Calvin
Brice, Samuel Thomas, @. P. Huntington,
Henry Hart, J. b. Houston aud Isaac
Gates. A local paper says this evening
when the present fins lcial furry is over
marked changes will be found in the re-
lations and ownerships of some Of the
more important systems of roads. Ii is
understood definitely that Jay Gould has
acquired a large interest in the Atchison
and that George will be one of the di-
rectors, 1t is almost certain that Gould
has acquired large holdings in the Union
Pacific, and it is admitted that he has
gained control ola large portion of the
Richmond Terminal stock.

CHICAGO, Nov. ia special from
Rushville. Neb says: As soon as the
troops arrived here today couriers rushed
with the news to Pine Ridge agency.
Word was received tonight that the H.
dams under Red Cloud declared that they
will meet the troops in battle tomorrow.
Agent Roger and his Indian police are
powerless. One of them Thunder
Bear arrested a bad Indian last Satur-
day, but was overpowered and the prisoner
released and the rebels threaten to burn
the agency buildings. The Indians
at Pine Ridge agency are about equally
divided among good and bad. Red Cloud
and Little Wound have been %fermenting
trouble for several weeks, while American
Horse and Young-M an-Afraid. Of His
Horse tried to pacify the warriors
Last week a big meeting was held thirty
miles from Pine Ridge agency at which a
reputed apostle of the messiah was
present. He told the Indians to return
to the agency and await the coming OF the
messiah. who is to arrive tomorrow in the
form of a buffalo. He will give the
signal for the opening of the conflict
which Is to annihilate the white race.
Ihls TACT causes great lear In the minds
OF old Indian fighters. Unless there is
absolute failure to get werd from the
messiah on the day OF the arrival OF the
troops. a conflict is certain.
Maj. Buffers column went into camp
tonight prepared for what seems NOW to
be certain combat. Many OF the friendly
Indians have lett the agency and are now
eucamped at Rushyille. They have
si0nIfed their intention OF aiding the
whites.
