Runaway.

J. NJ. Campbell, who was in from
Mason Valley last Saturday, had
the misfortune to have his team
run away while here. The team
was standing in front of the butch
er shop when it became frightened
and started to run up Main street.
At the Odd Fellows Hall the ami
mails turned and crossed the creek,
and continued to run until they
were caught by Omar Stallard at a
point half way between this place
and Sutro, No damage was done
to horses or wagon, strange to say,
and the only loss sustained by
Campbell was that of a few apples
and eggs that were thrown out of
the wagon.

STAGE COYNECTTONs.


The thoroughbred trotting stall
lion Ned Clifford, owned by NJ. w
Clifford, of Oakland, has been
brought to Nevada by his owner,
and is now standing at Mason Val
ley, The stallion is one of the most
noted of breeding horses, being halt
brother to Direct, the fastest PAGER in
the world, with a record of 2:06. He
has been brought to Nevada at con.
siderable expense, and owners of
horses who want to breed good stock
should take advantage of his pres
once. He is in charge of his man
ager, f, E. Mariner, who can be
communicated with for business
purposes.

Suit for Islander.

We are informed that James
Gardner, of Smith Valley, has
brought suit against Mrs. Mary
Hoye, of the same place, for $751;
600 damages for Islander. Mr.. Gard
ner is the Postmaster at Wellington,
and we believe that the suit grew
out of some remarks alleged to
have been made by Mrs. Hoye, in
regard to the manner in which
Gardner conducted his business.

Mr.. Godfrey Remarks.

Jack Godfrey speaks little piece
in the Enterprise in which he states
that Sam Elston owes him sos.
Sam says he don't, and that's all We
know about it, but Jack ought not
to accuse us of being scurrilous be-
cause there was nothing of that ma
ture in the piece published last
week. But then Jack is-you

NED CLIFFORD"
They Say He Is not a standard Bred
stallion.

Some two weeks ago we received
word from Mr.. Clifford, of Oakland,
through the business manager of
the Virginia City Enterprise to adj
vertise his stallion, "Ned Clifford, !"
now in Mason Valley. We copied
the local notice which appeared in
the Enterprise, and this notice stat
ed that the horse was the sire of
Direct" the fastest PAGER in the
world. A few days after the notice
appeared in the TIMES we received
several calls and letters from horse
men in this county, and they all
claimed that the notice "lied," and
that "Ned Clifford" was not the sire
of Direct" In The Virginia City
Chronicle the notice of the stallion
says he is half brother to Direct"
and, thinking that the Enterprise
had made a mistake we changed
the notice in the TIMES to read as
it read in the Chronicle. One of our
horsemen wrote to the Breeder and
Sportsman about the matter and
that paper seems to think that ''Ned
Clifford" is a blk.
We do not like to advertise such
a horse unless the truth is told, and
have written to Mr.. Clifford in regard
to the matter. 1t is probable that
a mistake was made in the first no
tice published, and that the one
now appearing in the TIMES is cor
rect. At any rate the horse has re-
ceived considerable advertising, and
if he is a half brother of "Direct"
he is good one. We will probably
have some more information about
the matter by our next publication
day.

The juice of the lacquer tree is
the natural varnish upon which
depends the famous lacquer work
of the japanese. Specimens of
this tree were brought from Japan
sixteen years ago and planted in
the Botonical Garden at Frankfort,
where they have fourished and
yielded seeds from which thrifty
young trees have sprung. The
place now has "a healthy trees &c
feet high. To determine whether
the juice is affected by its changed
conditions Prof. Rein has sent sam
pies to japanese artists for trial
and is having comparative analyses
made by eminent chemists. If the
reports are favorable, it is expected
that the lacquer tree will be quite
extensively planted in Germany
and that Europeans will be instruct
ed in the lacquering of wood by
some worker from Japan.

Young Fairs Death.

James G. Fair, Jr., died the first
of this week at the Lick House in
in San Francisco. Young Fair had
been wild youth, and had acquired
the liquor habit, which he tried to
cure by the Kelley bi-chloride of
gold remedy. 1t is believed that
the treatment was the cause of his
death. Young Fair was born in
Virginia City. His father is dis
tracted with grief at the loss of his
favorite son. He has gone to Hon
olula for his health and to obtain
quiet.

Another Runaway.

While in Silver City last Mon
day Hero Kennedy's horse became
frightened and ran away. The
horse started at the upper part of
the town and continued to run to
this place, after freeing him
self from the buggy. Mr.. Kennedy
was dragged a short distance and
somewhat shaken up but not seri-
ously hurt. The buggy was but
slightly broken and the horse was
not injured at all.

Winter Dairying.

1t is thought and said by some
that Winter dairying cannot be fol-
lowed, as a rule, because the COWS
will not breed in the season requir-
ed. This is mistake. Cows are
entirely artificial, and while undo
mesticated animals through the
necessity of their condition, supply
of food and suitable weather being
the chief of these, drop their young
in the Spring, this rule does not
apply to domesticated animals.
Cows may be bred at any season of
the year, and any farmer who wish
es to change from Summer to Win
ter dairying will find no difficulty
in the way mentioned if he will
keep back his COWS until the desir-
ed season. December or January
is the best month for breeding cows
for this purpose. 1t is not to be
feared that every dairyman will
make this change at the same time
and so disturb the common order
of things, for many other prepare
tons are required besides fresh

Bran and Poultry Food.

Bran is richer in phosphates and
other mineral matter than any
kind of ground grain. 1t contains,
also, more nitrogen than any other
concentrated food derived from
grains. If fed too literally it is
liable to cause disease of the bow
els, but if fed in connection with
variety of bulky food it will do
more to balance the ration than any
thing else. If fed dry the hens
viii not eat it very readily, but if
scalded they are very partial to it.
Bran may be fed safely three times
a week, and may be mixed with
other ground grain for that pur-
pose. A gill of linseed meal to
eaery quart of bran serves to in
crease the value Of the mess and
render the whole nearly complete
as egg food.

PROFITABLE SHEEP.
A small Band Can be Made to Pay
Every Farmer.


Sheep are profitable for all farm
ers to keep, but all farmers who keep
sheep do not make them profitable.
All lands are better for keeping
sheep on them, but all farms are not
best for all kinds of sheep. One
farmer keeps sheep in large flock
and they do well. His neighbor
keeps as large a flock and they do
not pay for their keeping. Why?
They are different breed and do
not thrive in large focks, or the
farms are not the same kind of soil.
If one will study sheep history he
will find the origin of the different
breeds is on lands that vary from
mountainous to very level. The
higher up the mountains you find
sheep smaller and more active, The
heavy sheep belong to rich, level
lands, and as in old countries such
lands are most valuable for cultiva-
ton; sheep are principally kept to
benefit the farm by manure and as
scavengers. The black faces of the
highlands of England and Scotland,
and different breeds of Welsh sheep
and Merinos have all been raised
from the beginning for what there
may be realized from the sheep. 1t
has been a business and they have
been run in large focks until they
are used to crowding and learn to
stand it. But even these sheep will
do much better in small focks.
Sheep husbandry is long study
to true shepherd. He never will
learn it all, and never too much.
But it is easy to learn that sheep
are profitable on every farm and by
observation one can see on what
kind of pasture sheep thrive best,
and what breeds Of sheep are on the
different pastures. From experience
| have learned that (if not too large
a flock) sheep will pay clear profit
of wool and increase. They make
good pastures by keeping down
weeds. They will clean out weed
patch if confined to it. They will
eat up all waste vegetables and
grains. Turned into stubble field
as soon as the grain is out of it
every head of loose grain will be
picked up and tips of all weeds will
soon be eaten. The blowing Of the
stubble will be easier and better
done, and the next crop viii be a
better one for having been pastured
by sheep. Take the sheep of a
township, count the expenses and
profits of all, and it will double the
amount of the same number in the
fiocks of the plains. 1t is the small
flock, well cared for, that pays.
Sheep should be on every farm,
more or less, and they should be
bred pure; no mixing up; no trying
to create better breed. We have
enough breeds. Only try to improve
the breed you have and you will do

Assuming ShaDe.

The Austin Adrocate says the
building of a railroad from the
Union Pacific and Rio Grande to
San Francisco, to parallel the G. P.
through Nevada, seems to be assum-
ing definite shape. Nevada has
given the Nevada & Utah Air Line
a subsidy of about 81, 100000 if
the road is built within five years.
This will probably pay for grading
the road through the State, and it
will be the cheapest investment
the State ever made. The Central
Pacific has been leach on Nevada
for twenty-three years, and will
continue to be until the State has
a competing line. There is nothing
to hinder Nevada from being pros
porous but the opportunity to sell
her products at the market price,
with reasonable transportation
charges off. We have the climate,
soil, beef, dairy products, sheep,
horses, borax, salt, sulphur, copper,
