STRANGELY MlSiNFORMED.

The esteemed Hnsbandman com.
ments upon the situation at Neihart,
only to show to the world that it
doesn't know much upon the subject.
How The NEIHART HERALD is af-
fected by an Injunction against Mr..
Abbott is a matter hard to explain.
We, the HERALD, wish to inform the
Husbandman that tie press is not
enjoined in this case. And further
more, it would make no difference
if it We're enioined. IF the HERALD
has no fight it never suggests fight;
if it has a good fight, there are not
enough courts in all Ameica to keep
it down. But we are pleased to note
that the H~usbandman will watch the
fight with interest. The HERALD is
IN to stay, and its cause is right as
sur as the earth moves. We note
further for the information of our
contemporary sister that the opera
ton of the mines of Neihart depend
upon the price Of silver, and that the
trade of stores and boarding houses
has" nothing to do with the case.
In the meanwhile, Mr.. Abbott will
look after his W case, and take his
chances of retaining life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. Keep your
weather eye open, dear Husbandman.

l}ozeman Chronicle: There seems
to be IA bad strata of air over at
Great Falls, for one fight succeeds
another. This time it is over the
new school house Investigation, and
Mr.. Downing, who played Juliet to
to Mr.. Thresher's Romeo, last fall at
the Bozeman opera house, is the last
person to get Il smash in the Jaw
over there. The successful contest
ant for fstic honors was Mr.. Greedy,
who persisted in calling Downing a
liar until his Missouri blood boiled
and bubbled and his right arm flew
out and hit Mr.. Greedy "A swipe in
the jaw. Peace was restored by the
intervention of spectators, and now
the public awaits for the next out

TIE ATHLETIC GIRL.
She Is Sweet Enough, but Some Of Her
Ways Are Not.

Ways Are Not.
Who doesn't know the girl who
goes around whacking other girls on
the backs and pounding them in the
stomachs and pummeling them in
their chests, saying: "Why on earth
don'tyou stand up? You're as humpy
IS a camelp"
Some folks say that this girl is all
right; that she fills her niche in the
worlds gallery of welldoers with
ability and unselfishness. This may
be true, but if you happen to be a
girl and wander into the way of this
welldoer you long to implore her to
adopt milder methods. 1t isn't pleas
ant when you are discussing the
latest wrinkle in hairdressing to
have somebody suddenly give you an
awful thump between the shoulders
and say: "Stand up, there, now! If
you bend over much more, you'll
stand on your head" Then you are
likely to double up as quickly as a
folding bed unsolicited doubles
down, and for a moment you may
imagine that you are in the hands of
a patented massage machine or
fioundering in the whirring arms of
a windmill.
1t is this same girl that docs her
exercises on the back porch every
morning, to the amusement and graf
ificatiOn of a huge audience station
ed at numerous windows. She first
plants her hands On her hips and
draws several long breaths. She puffs
her chest out pigeon fashion and
snorts like a feminine Sandow. Aft
er that she stretches her arms to-
ward a neighboring clothesline, and
by that time spectators, open mouth
ed and interested, have assembled.
A man in the act of shaving puts
down his razor, deserts his mirror
and brush and devotes himself en-
tirely to gazing at the twisting,
stretching vision of athletic lowell
ness. A kitchen lady trots out of a
back door with a bucket of potato
Feelings, but stops midway of her
journey to look. In every other win
dow along the entire row of houses
beams a face, and as the athletic
maiden becomes more and more
warmed up to her playful and invig-
Grating performance each face grows
into a group of three, Or even more.
After a few mornings of this the
shaving gentlemen and the kitchen
lady defer their individual employ
ment until the vision on the back
porch starts up her D~elsartean poses.
Sometimes when she is in a spe-
cially humorous mood she gives an
imitation of Lottie Collins cele-
brated rough and tumble dance, and
at such moments the audience mods
its universal approval. Whatever her
actions, she's sure of a crowd of on
lockers, and even if her audience
does increase daily she frets not, so
long as the faithful tape measure
tells her that her chest has widened
almost half an inch after only three
months Of muscle developing tor
ture and exhibitions of graceful war
dances.-Philadelphia Times.

had been covered with a tough Ber-

cut green in midsummer for the cattle

We plowed in April, and every foot of

rip its way through the strong.
wiry roots. We sowed the corn
quite thicIxly. 1t came up we'll

fort against its new enemy. When
the corn was about four or five feet
high, we began to think the wire grass
would have hard time Of it, but it did
its best and sent long, though rather
delicate. stems straight up toward the
light We began to cut the corn as
soon as it tasseled out, and were about
two weeks feeding it. As soon as the
Bermuda grass found the shade gone,
it started to recover its lost ground.
On the day we finished cutting we
plowed it again, and sowed it in corn

grass, and cut the corn to save it from

there was hardly a spear OF Bermuda

Good Reasons for Dalryioe.

ing reasons for his faith:
]. 1t is the business upon the farm
that permits the most absolute con.
troll over conditions of production and
distribution of product, hence the most
profitable.
2. 1t is the highest art Of farming.
because it combines all other lines and
gives greater opportunity for executive
and manufacturing skill.

and destructive competition by neces-
sity of its character and by the person.

4. 1t is a more exact line of produc.
tion. permitting gross receipts to be
forecast with greater exactness; hence
the greater possibilities Of increasing
net receipts, either by lowering ex.
penses or increasing volume of product.
5. It permits the employment of la.
Dor At the season of the year when
farm labor is the cheapest, if winter
dsirying is followed.
8. OF all the products sold from tho
farm, butter takes the least fertility
and restores the greatest amount to

the most fertile sections of the coun
try are where butter farming is fol

WOMEN IN THE WORLD.


Facts - to the Dlstrihattsa Of The Reml.
Mise PopulatSoa.
According to the most reliable esti-
mates the world to-day contains 2so,-
o0O. 900 grown women. Among civilized
nations the United States have actu-
ally the largest share. their feminine
population being 3o,5s4, $40. Russia
comes next with an adult feminine
population of %, zoo, 600 Then Q long
way after comes the German empire
with lO,93O. 900; Austria, with ., ,6eo, 600;
Great Britain, with s,766, 600; France,
with $3.50, 900. and Italy. with $780,
900. Spain comes next ON the list with
I. .l30, 900 of the fair sex, and she il
followed by Belgium, with 1,34o, 900;
ROumania, with 1.eoO. 600; sweden.
with l,l7O, 900; Portugal, with /. .Os0, 600.
and Holland, with 1,O70, 900. The coun.
tries whose adult feminine population
does not reach 1000, 900 are Switzer-
land. which has only 500. .O00: Norway,
which has 465. 900. and Greece and Dem

In this estimate it will be noted that
the entire female population of the
United States is given and only the
number of grown women in the diff

ter Of fact, in proportion TO its popu-
lation this country has fewer women
than most of the others mentioned.
The proportion Of women to men in
the United states is greatest in New

SICK DRAFT HORSES.
Bran - The Foremost Food for the Iavali

Bran - the Foremost Food for the Iavalid
Eqaine.
Bran stands decidedly foremost as
the food most generally in use for the
invalid horse, says an editor. 1t acts
as laxative, is frequently tempting
70 the appetite. and easy Of digestion.
There is no part of the general treat
ment more universal than offering
this sube'tapee as . change of food.

sages, it is substitute for

accustomed to. and gently pro-
notes the activity Of the digestive ap-
paratus; it 10 also q convenient medi-
um for the giving of certain sfmple
remedies. When it is necessary to ad-
minister purgative medicine, : bran
mash or two renders the bowels more
susceptible of its action. and . smaller
drug is therefore required to produce
the desired effect. Bran mashes may
be given hot or cold-cold, are per-
haps. quite as grateful to the horse
but the nibbling of the hot mash in
catarrhal affections is particularly
beneficial from the necessary inhala-
tion Of the steam. OF ali the roots with
which horses are tempted. the carrot,
rs u rule, is the favorite, and per-
haps the most beneficial. 1t is said to
be somewhat diuretic in its effect. and
to exercise salubrious influence on
the skin. Certain it is that . sick
horse may be cOaxed into eating car
rot when disinclined to partake of
other nourishment, with the greatest
beneficial results. For the ailing horse
carrots are most valuable as an article
of diet, and a few may be given with
advantage to horse in = healthy con-
ditiOn.
Oatmeal is extremely nutritious, and
rs food for the convalescent horse is
most valuable; the bruising process the
grain has undergone breaks the husk
and renders it more easily acted upon
by the digestive organs. 1t is usually
given in the form of . Cruel, and in
that form it is one of the most essen
tial articles of diet for the infirmary.
Linseed is decidedly to be included in
the sick-diet roll. 1t is nutritious, and
from its oleaginous nature soothing to
the frequently irritable mucous men,

hence is particularly to be recommend
ed in the treatment of sore throats.
