FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

A beekeeper without enthu'ia'm is

1t pays to set the poles for running
beans before the beans are dropped.
Good grain and grass cost too much to
be wasted on poor animals. For profit
the combination must be good all the
way through.
Figure the cost Of keeping sheep on
the basis of eight sheep to one COW.
Make some allowance for the size of the
animals, OF curse.
Ducks arc very voraclou' eaters and
will feed not only incessantly all day,
but if it IS bright moonlight will be up
aud at it during the night.
1t pays to have sharp tools, even il
you have to stop on your busiest day and
sharpen them. But wise farmer puts
tools in order on rainy days.

ease is nothing more or less than in and
in breeding. To exterminatc it pur-
chase new variety of queens aud allow
no drones to live in the old stocks.
When shipping live poultry to mar
ket, see to it that the coops are in cool
condition, for they are sometimes
handled roughly, or a slat may come
loose and a fowl or two become lost.
Look out that roup does not start in
your flock. 1t is caused by cold, damp
ness, exposure to rough weather, and
neglect. Prevent its presence by care,
good shelter, aud dry, clean hen houses.
You can help the spring pigs alone in
two ways. One by feeding the sows
literally upon milk-proiuciug foods, and
by beginning early to fed the pigs them

The outline Of the postOfice had
become indistinct in the gathering
darkness and the streets in the
vicinity were filled with people hur-
rying hOmeward, when the reporter
observed a man with Stubby beard
who with some difficulty was holding
a position on a corner, SOlemnly shak-

"Youse fellers amt giyin' de bloke

with an argument that was evidently

HANDLING A HERD OF CATTLE.
Skill and Daring Required to Avert .
Stamp de on the Trail.


The task Of the drover and his as
sistant cowboys in getting the herds
from the Southern ranches 10 the
Northern shipping points was one in.
volying both skill and daring, says an
article in Scribner's Magazine. The
daily programme was as regular as
that of regiment on the march.
From morning until noon the cattle
were allowed to Craze in the direc-
ton Of their destination, watched by
the cowboys in relays. The cattle
were by this time uneasy, and were
turned into the trail and walked
steadily forward eight or ten miles,
when at early twilight they halted
for another Craze. As darkness came
on they were gathered closer and
closer together into a compact mass
by the cowboys riding steadily in con-
stantly lessening circles around them
until at last the brutes lay down
chewing their cuds and resting from
the days trip. Near midnight they
would usually get up, stand awhile,
and then lie down again, having
changed sides At this time extra
care was necessary to keep them flom
aimlesSly wandering Off in the dark
ness. Sitting on their ponies or rid
ing slowly round and round their re-
clining charges, the cowboys passed
the night on sentinel duty, relieving
one another at stated hours.
When skies were clear and the air
bracing the task of cattle driving was
a pleasant and healthful one. But
there came rainy days, when the cat
tie were restless and when it was
anything but enjoyable riding through
the steady dOwnpOuc. Then especially
were the nights wearisome, and the
cattle were ready at any time to STAN
pCde

were the horses that could keep

TO their best gait, the cowboys fol-
lowed at breakneck speed Getting
on one side of the leaders. the effort
was TO turn them 4 little at first,
then more and moe, until the cir

described. The cattle behind blindly
followed, and soon the front and rear
joined and milling" commenced. Like
a mighty mill stone, round and round
the bewildered creatures raced until
they were wearied out or recovered

Practical Boston.

Boston notions are numberlesS and

notices in English, French, German,

rooms of the railway stations and

strangers and stating at what hours
a matron, who will be recognizable
by her prescribed badge, may be found
to give all needed information and
advice. In the same city, which is
peculiarly the home and originating
place of practical charities, a second
good scheme is that OF the Young
Travellers Aid Society. Under its
auspices matrOns meet the chief
trains. both incoming and outgoing,
and aid by suggestion or information

History is said to repeat itself, and it
is probable it will do so concerning the
berry shipments. Last year the berry
shippers rushed their products into
Helena and Butte, glutted those mar
kets, forced prices down, and put the
fruit merchants there in a position to
undersell the shipper here i'll all the
outside markets. The same thing is
beidg done this year, and unless halt
is called the results will be anything
but gratifying. The union was a step
in the right direction, but the inde-
pendent shipper handicaps it. The
small markets along the road must be
looked up and supplied, to the end
that Helena and Butte cannot control
the market and dictate prices, OR there
is goin o be quick and heavy fall in
values.
