Reaf From Montana.

From estimates made that the prob
able supply of beef to come from
Montana this year, by the Rocky
Mountain Husbandman, will be less
than last, which is encouraging TO the
cattle farmers, if true, it says; 1--WE
have estimated the output of beef this
year from Montana at fully fifty
thousand less than last year. In ar
irving at this conclusion we have as.
sumed that OF two hundred and fifty
thousand sent to market last year one
hundred thousand were steers driven
from the south several years previous
and the natural produce of our Mon
tana herds is only about one hundred
and fifty thousand head. And fig
uring the southern cattle on hand
ready for the market at fifty thousand
we think two hundred thousand head
will cover the number that will 60
forward this season. But this will
probably be The highest season we
will have for three or four years from
the face that the shipment from the
south has been very heavy this sea-
son, sufficient to keep up heavy out
put for some time. And should this
years drive prove as successful as the
drives of a few years ago there is no
telling to what exteht this branch of
business will be carried en- in the
future"

How to Flavor a TenderloIn.

To assure a delicious steak broil a
tenderloin and at the same time q
small piece of round, which usually
contains a great deal of well-favored
juice. Then cut the round steak into
small bits and squeeze it in a lemon
squeezer over the tenderloin. Tender
loin is usually neither juicy nor par
ticularly well-favored, but by this
method one gets very delicious
steak.--Home and Farm.

A farmer in Hebron, Me-, who has
$500 apple trees set, and 260 in bear
ing, says he sprayed his trees at a
cost of two cents each last spring, and
has scarcely a second quality apple in
his orchard, although forty trees of
Russets bear SO heavy a crop that the
limbs had to be propped up, besides
Northern Spies and others that yield
nearly as well. Another farmer near
him had equally good results from
spraying.-American Cultivator.

William, the ten-year-old nephew of
John Powell, was burned to death in
the barn of the latter at Undertook,
N. Y, several nights ago. The, little
boy had gone to the barn with his
eight-year old brother, Alonzo, and
William tried to save the horses, but
got pinioned in one of the stalls by a
frightened horse. Alonzo ran for
help, but was SO frightened that he
had wandered mile when found.

A railroad man named Ross Ward
has tobogganed down Pixies Peak on
a board three feet long and foot and
half wide, to the bottom of which
was nailed cleat to serve as keel.
This keel fitted between the rack rails

covered was nine miles, with a de-
scent of 5000 feet, and the time made
was ii I minutes. Ward did it for a
wager of $25, but says he would not
repeat the feat for 100000.

A man who met with shipwrecA off
the coast Of Cuba and had to take to
an open boat, tells of the peculiar hal
Inclination, called by tue sailors "Par-
adise craze" brought on by exposure
to the terrific heat of the suns rays.
He says: "The sea appeared to be
transformed into mighty meadow,
bright with flowers and musical with
the songs of birds. Cool springs
burst from crystal rocks and trickled
over golden sands. and men and maid
ems danced beneath the trees. They
seemed reckoning me to join them
and / plunged over the side of the
boat into 40 fathoms of brine. The
bath brought me to my senses, and l
reached the Cuban coast more dead
alive. The mania is of frequent &C.
currence in tropical seas, and is often
referred to by the poets"

Don't Postpone The Bliss.
Milwaukee Sentinel.

About the only Democratic voice
raised against the calling of the
new congress together in March to
smash the deadly Mckinley act, is
that Of The New York Herald.
But that paper has not been Dem.
ocrato enough to have any influence
with the Cleveland administration.
Why, it admitted to it's columns
essays in favor Of the dreadful
Mckinley act, from the pens of
Murat Hslstead and Col. Cockeril,
both utter and unmitigated pro-
tectionists.
1t is monstrous to suggest that
this unspeakable Mckinley law
should endure for another whole
year. Is not protection "the sum
of all villainies"2 Does not this
outrageous measure allow the AFRO
giant manufacturers to fatten at the
expense of the honest and lowly2
Was not this law enacted by the
bribery of the Republican congress-
and administration with the cor
ruption funds of the manufacturers2
Are not manufacturers in the pro.
tected industries making from so
per cent. to 100 per cent. on their
capital? Does not Senator Villas
say this Mckinley law costs the
people of this blighted country
FIVE thousand millions of dollars
year? Are not all but the pampered
manufacturers deep in the mirc of
poverty as result Of protection?
This is all so. We have the as.
surances of Grover Cleveland, of
the Democratic convention, Of
Democratic orators and writers,
that this is 30. Did they not, be-
cause of all these things, promise
"to bury protection deeper than
Haman was hanged high"?
Then why should we suffer it
another year, at the cost of millions,
the cost Of poverty and dear living,
when it can be wiped out in a day?
Surely it does not require all the
time even between this aud the
fourth Of March to prepare a bill
the meat Of which is to be that the
Mckinley law "is hereby repealed"
Is there any doubt az to the popular
demand for the abolition Of the
entire protective system? Surely
no Democrat will admit that for an
instant. Then why delay?
Oh, think Of the condition Of
labor? AT Homestead men are still
idle, because under the bligbting
Mckinley law they were able to
earn only from $3.50 TO 3l5 a day
and were forced to strike. Why,
it pinebed the representative toiler
at Homestead every January to pay
I the faYea ON his hatf.dozan hougpa
IIi5 money was loaned at 0 per
cent. interest and when he was
forced to draw out enough to pay
taxes, he lost tine interest on that
amount. God have mercy on this
stricken country if it must endure
twelve monthe or thirteen months
more Of the Mckinley law.
Think what is to follow the repea

HOW TO CURE NERVOUS HORSE

Finely-bred intelligent horses are
very nervous. They are quick to
notice, quick to take alarm, quick to
do what seems to them, in moments
Of sudden terror, necessary to escape
from possible harm, from something
they do not understand. That is
what makes them shy, bolt and run
away. We cannot tell what awful
suggestions strange things offer to
their minds. For aught we can tell,
sheet OF white paper in the road
may seem to the nervous horse
yawning chasm; the open front of a
baby carriage, the jaws of dragon
ready to devour him, and man on
bicycle some terrifying sort of a fly
ing devil without wings. But we find
that the moment he becomes familiar
with those things or any other that
alright him, he grows indifferent to
them.
Therefore, when your horse SHES
at anything, make him acquainted
with it, let him smell it, touch it with
his sensitive upper lip, and look
closely at it. Remember, too, that
you must familiarize both sides of
him with the dreaded object. If he
only examines it with the near nos
tril and eye he will be very likely to
scare at it when it appears on his off
side. So, then, rattle your paper,
beat your bass drum, futter your
umbrella, run your baby carriage
and your bicycle, fire your pistol and
clatter your tinuare both sides of him
and all around him until he comes
to regard the noise simply as nui-
sance, and the material objects only
as trivial things liable to get hurt if
they are in his way. He may not
learn all that in one lesson, but con-
tinue the lesson and you will cure all
his nervousness Elk.
