HEAVY WOOL CLIPS,
A Montana Ranchman's Ros.ate View of
sheep Raising.

A Montana Ranchman's Roseate View of
sheep Raising.
Pioneer Press 23d inst.
A large, hurley looking man was
seated in the rotunda of the Merchants
yesterday afternoon. From the wide
SLOUGH hat that sat on his curly
brown hair down to the high heeled
boots on his feet he looked a Westerner.
Upon inquiry the reporter found that
his name was John Nelson and that he
is a ranchman living in Fergus county,
Montana. Mr.. Nelson said: 'We are all
extremely happy over the prospect for
this year. There will be more grass for
the cattle and more hay for next winter,
which, by the way, | think will BET hard
one. The calves pulled through all
right and the cattle wintered well. as did
sheep So you see this is really the first
good year we have had since the bad
winter of 1886, when we lost nearly ev-
erything. A great many head of cattle
are on the old trail, coming up from
Texas and the territory. Our county is
mostly given over to sheep, though there
are several large cattle ranches, such as
the circle. bar, owned by an English syn
dictate and the ID. II. S., owned by the
millionaire Davis estate. The large l. j.
horse ranch is also in the county. The
sheep men are driving the cattle across
the river and will sOOn have the whole
county. expect that the wool clip
this year will come up to nearly $500
Geo, may be more. The wool this year is
of a finer grade and our sheep are av-
eraging about twelve pounds apiece.

He Arrives in Great Falls and Will As
sumo His New Duties Tomorrow.
Mr.. Frank Klepetko, who was recently
appointed superintendent of the Boston
IL Montana works, arrived in this city
yesterday, accompanied by his wife and
four children. Mr.. KS former home has
been in Dollar Bay, Mich, where he was
in charge of the smelling department of
the Tamarack Osceola Manufacturing
company. He brings with him ample
experience in the mining, smelling and
refining of copper and will be a great
acquisition to this city as well as to
tho Boston & Montana company. Mr..
X. will take charge of the works tomor-
row and it is safe to say that under his
direction construction will go forward as
rapidly as possible.
Mr.. G. o. Parsons resignation as con
s~ulting engineer has been presented to
the company, to take effect October LIST
prOx. In the course of a week or ten
days, or as soon as Mr.. Klepetko has the
reins Of management well in hand, Mr..
Parsons will 60 east to further some in
terests with which he is identified here.
He has unlimited faith in Great Falls and
now that he is in a manner foot loose
will doubtless accomplish much for the
eneral good of the city. Mr.. Parsons
is largely interested here and will do a
good part towards promoting the wei
fare OF the city.

THE JAPANESE WAX TREE.

Pounds Of Wax.

Japan wax" as it is called Is
obtained from tree Rhus succedanea,
which is found in Japan, China and
throughout the East Indies in general
In the Japanese iangddg5 II is called
haze, or haze. The tree commences ID
bear fruit when 8 or year old, and
increases its product every year, till.
at the age of 80 years, single tree
will produce $50 to 400 pounds ol
berries, from which seventy to eighty
pounds Of wax can be obtained. The
wax is formed i'll the middle of the
berry, between the skin and the seed,
like the pulp of grape. 1t Is OK
tracted by boiling the berries in water
and allowing it to cool, when the wax
separates from the skin and seed, sink,
ing to the bottom OF the vessel in a
solid cake. The specific gravity of this
wax is 0.970, and its melting point 13l
degrees Fahrenheit: 1t is largely used,

s'IIunian Vanity to Human Misery's

DIR. Stellwag, the famous oculist
while lecturing to his students at Wen
ma recently, told pretty story of Dom
Pedro Of Brazil. He said that he had
many opportunities Of conversing with
the ex-etiperor, man OF the highest
character and OF great culture, whose
heart and mind were always filed with
plans for improving the condition of
his people. 1t was one Of his dearest
wishes to have big hospital in Rio,
but he lacked the money wherewith to
build it, and the wealthy could not be
induced to subscribe. Then an idea
came to him, and he began to bestow
titles. Any man who was willing to
give good round sum to the hospital
could call himself count" ''viscount, ,
or "baron." The patent of nobility
was not hereditary, and, if the chill
dreu wished TO inherit the fathers
title. they had 10 pay over again. Rio
was suddenly peopled with mobiles, and
the hospital was built on grand scale.
When it was completed, Dom Pedro
had the following inscription placed
over its gates: ''Vanitas Humane
Miseria Humanaw-Human Vanity
Human Misery.

Whey For Pigs.

Prof. w. A. Henry, OF the Wiscon-
sin experiment station, gives the fol-
lowing summary of four experiments
to determine the feeding value OF
whey:
l. We are not successful In main
tanning pigs on whey alone.
2. Pigs fed on cornmeal and shorts,
with water, required 552 pounds Of
the mixture for 100 pounds Of gain.
8. When whey was added to the
cornmeal and shorts mixture, 1t pro-
duced marked saving In the amount
OF grain required for good gains. This
was true for mixtures varying from 2
pounds OF whey to l pound OF grain,
up to 10 pounds Of whey to l Of grain.
4. 1t was found when using whey
as a partial substitute for grain, that
760 pounds of whey effected saving
100 pounds Of the cornmeal and shorts
mixture.
B. Using these figures, II cornmeal
and shorts are valued at $40 per ton,
then whey is worth 8 cents per 100
pounds; at $l5 per ton for the corn
meal and shorts, whey would be worth
10 cents per 100 pounds.
6. Shorts pea meal and oil meal
or like feeds should be mixed with
whey for growing animals. Some
corn may be fed at all times, the pro-
portion increasing as the animal ap-
proaches maturity. Coleman Rural

with stealthy and noiseless steps.
A few moments OF silence passed
after they had disappeared, and then
q wild shrek was heard, and others
fainter and fainter like the voice of
one in agony struggling to cry out and
stifed by powerful hands. The women
rushed from the woods, dragging with
them their h3peless victim, whom they
had gagged so that she could not even
supplicate their mercy. Another cry
was presently heard-the wall OF a
terrified child. The little boy reused

discovered with certainty who were
the perpetrators of the murder.
