The Age and its Program for 1saa.

ASV anu It's LAOBIhm aOE 1000
The December number of the
Irrigation Age is at hand. As
usual it is filled to the covers with
valuable information concerning
the progress Of irrigation through
out the West. The typographical
appearance and general makeup
of the Age shows a marked i'm
proyement, and indicative of the
prosperity which this journal now
enjoys.
The number Just at hand an
nounces a great feature for the
coming year, that of the publica-
ton Of a series Of Columbian issues
dealing with the progress of each
state and territory in the arid
region. These issues will be
printed on the best book paper,
finely illustrated, and will be dis
tributed from the Salt Lake Office
throughout the United States and
the visiting centers of the old
world. The series will begin with
the California issue of February
l, 1898.

The CoInnbIa DAM CaIondar


remains the only valuable daily
pad and calendar. The calendar
for '93 is of the same general de-
sign and character as that of the
previous years, consisting of 366
leaves, one for every day in the
year, and a calendar for the entire
year. The day of the week, of the
month and Of the year are given,
and on each leaf is a short sermon
on the Gospel of Outdoors, Health
and Happiness" with valuable
hints on practical road making.
The leaves are so arranged that
there will be no stub left, and each
can be referred to at any time du-
ring the year. The pad is upon a
metallic stand of ivory black, ar
ranged so as TO rest upon the desk
at a convenient angle. The pad

enough to make a book, is all
fresh and new, and is Of more
pertinent value than that Of the
previous calendar II is issued by

Let fancy breeding alone, but
breed for individual merit, ne that
is the one thing that will win.
One Of the most gratifying signs
OF San Juan county's popularity
as a winter resort is shown in the
numerous large outfits Of differ
ent kinds Of stock that are there
this winter. Nearly every ranch
on the Animas and La Plata that
has any pasture or hay is accom-
modating all that it can hold. It
is safe TO estimate that not less
than $500 head of stock are being
taken care of, and before winter
really sets in as many more will
be driven in. Before spring it is
safe TO say that hay will be worth
not less than 81 to SO per ton.
w. Z. Anderson, the well known
cattleman of Rocky Ford, Colo,
recently purchased 500 steers Of
the Red River Company, Colfax
county, to pasture on his extoniive
alfalfa fields in the Arkansas val
ley. The steers were trailed to
their destination.
The cattle are pretty well clean
ed out of Colfax county. Nearly
all the old time companies have
taken out what they can gather,
and many of the ranges are being
occupied by sheep. Last week
1000 bead of the old Dorsey herd
were shipped to pastures.
w. b. Slaughter returned to
Albuquerque last week from a
Kansas trip. He has steers in
Kansas, Texas and Montana, and
in each section his cattle are in
good condition, and he feels the
prospects for good prices next
year r such as to justify a little
hilarity on his part in anticipation
of big, fat profits from his stock.
He is in the market for more cat
tie.
The Field and Farm says {:
There will not be any appreciable
change in the beef consumed to
influence a change in the markets.
The abandoning of the cattle bust
ness by ranchmen, both large and
small cattle raisers on account of
the depression in prices of young
stock, will aid in bringing about a
better condition Of trade for the
persons who stick to the business.
There will always be that class Of
men who go into business because
is Furnishing, and as soon as it
lulls a little they seek for n getting
out place, ready to go into some
else. The man who sue
ceeds, as a rule, in stock opera
tions is the man who hangs onto
his business through thick and
thin.
The year now drawing to a close
has fortunately been almost free
Texas fever. Referring to
the National Stockman and
Farmer says 4; Cattle raisers have
had a year practically free from
fever. In no late fall and
summer season for many years has
such immunity from this ANNUALLY
appearing scourge been enjoyed.
For this there is Of course a rea-
son, and the candid observer must
admit hat this, like the disappear
ance of pluro-pueumonia, has been
brought about by the department
Of agriculture. The restrictive
regulations placed upon the move
ment of Southwestern cattle at
certain seasons, the pains taken
to e that they do not come in
contact with other stock, their Is
olation in the leading markets,
have been effective in accom-
plishing what many stockmen
deemed impracticable. Much op-
position to these regulations has
been manifested in certain inter
ested localities, but the event full
" vindicates the policy of the de-
partment in the premises.

eral years past.
The tramps will give Las Cru
ces a wide birth from now on. In
the future they must earn their

course to rid the people of that
place of this class of lazy travel
ers.

bers of the new mining and CON

lease on the Captain b., about
miles sonth of Kingston last
week. He has already struck a
fine body of ore carrying native

rich copper matte last week.
This represents over $50 tons Of
ore hat could not previously be
shipped from that district at any
thing near what would pay for
handling.
The amount of ore collected in
the Chloride district to be used in
the construction of Sierra coun-
TVS mineral cabin at the Worlds
was about three tons.
The Columbus Social Club Of
Kingston is now fully organized,

Too Much.

Mrs. LaveEty, an Irish lady, who lived
thirty miles from the American Rich
mOnd, was in the provident habit Of
laying in a store of groceries to last an
entire quarter, since she could not repair
to Richmond oftener than four times a
year. On one Of these provisioning ex-
peditions she laid in store of Matches
a disastrous investment, since not a
match would strike. Wild was her fury,
which was kept alight and aglow by her
recurring daily trouble to get her fire
aight and aglow without a match. Her
wrath, thus kept at boiling point for
three months, gave the storekeeper a
hot quarter of an hour, when she burst at
last into his store and thundered down
the parcel of matchboxes upon the
counter. Having waited with defer
entail patience until the storm had spent
itself, he said suavely, "Allow me,
madam"
Taking a matchbox from the parcel
and a match from the box, he struck it,
after the manner Of men, upon his trous-
ers. "See, madam he exclaimed in
SNUG triumph, holding up the kindled
match. "The divil fly away wild yer
shrieked Mrs. Laverty. "Do We think
that livery time I've a fire to light II
thravel thirty miles to sthrike match
on the safe of yere breeches?"- Richard
A. King in Belgravia.

The Street Rand,

'1 like the dashing cornet and the
sprightly clarinet" said Colonel CALI
per, "but I like best of all that brass
fountain of cheerfulness, the big bass
horn. Care takes back seat when the
big horn sounds. 1t paints the air red
and defes all creation, but it is vastly
good natured withal, and it never fails
when its friends the cornet and the clari-
net pause for breath to come in with its
compliant oomph-ah! oomph-ahl pre-
serving the harmony unbroken.
Relieved from this duty, it rolls off
over the edge of a cliff and brings up
suddenly at the foot with tremendous
oomphl Rebounding, with dignity un-
rufled, with undiminished vigor, and
with undimmed, inextinguishable and
overwhelming good humor, it tosses off
sound in large decorative effects that
excite the wonder of every hearer and
fill every hearer with broad delight.
"Just why the big bass horn is usually
played by short, stout man, while the
slender clarinet is played by a man who
is tall and thin is one of those things
that nobody knows. The time may
come, indeed, when the short, stout man
will play the slender clarinet and the
tall, thin man will play the big bass
horn; but by whomsOever it may be
played let us hope that the big horns
thunderous jollity will never be abated.

Good Things Corraled For the Edit
cation of WOmankind.

Here from Youths Companion are
two good stories of witnesses.
During a trial which took place in a
New England city some years ago, the
plaintiff was undergoing a rather sharp
examination from the defendants at
torney. The case was one of damages
claimed on account of severe bodily
Injuries, received by the plaintiff on a
railroad, due, the plaintiff claimed, to
the negligence of the defendant rail
road company's services.
Mr.. c., the railroad company :
lawyer, was noted for his nervous
manner in examining witnesses and
endeavOring to disconcert them. This
witness, however, determined not to
be squelchod or confused by his oppo-
nents counsel. After becoming thor
oughly provoked by the attacks Of the
lawyer, he demonstrated
Mr.. c." said he, II am an inva.
lid. l Icannot allow you to question me
in this manner. 1t is a positive injury
to my nervous system, which is at
best in a shattered condition. l shall
have to refuse to answer your ques-
tions, unless you put them in a differ
ent manner.
Il am troubled on account of the
injury received on the railroad, with
