Fodder Feeding.
To the Agitator:

10 the Agitator:
A. j. Vaughn and son, Charles
Vaughn, put into the feed-yard on
October Oath last 26 head of good,
straight two.year-old steers, aver
aging 955 pounds. On November
23d, the average was LOGS pounds.
On January Oath, 1895, they aver
aged l,1SO pounds-a gain of 225
pounds to each steer.
Those steers were fed two shocks
of corn, morning, noon and even
ing, making six shocks of corn a
day. The quality OF corn was much
below the average. 1t would run
about 16 to Is bushels to the acre.
Mr.. Vaughn has been feeding
cattle and hogs the past thirty years,
and he says that he never had cattle
and hogs do as well in any previous
year, when corn was much better,
and they fed broken corn and straw
and hay for roughness.
The success that has resulted
from the manner of the past fall and
winter feeding is causing them to
look in the direction of utilizing
the stalks, which are too hard for
stock to eat, and 60 to waste.

THE BRAHMIN AND THE TIGRESS
Unexpectedly dedicated to the woman surags OF Colorado

I've story TO tell you, sisters,
OF Brahmin loving and good,
Who, in his wanderings, CHANGED to find
A Gagged tigress in wood.
The tangled wood was dense and dark.
The cage was cruelty strong,
The tigress was fair and supple,
The Brahmin was gentle and young.
Said the tigress, "Oh, gentle Brahmin,
Ope this cage and let me free;
Many travellers have passed
But none took pity on me-"
Said the Brahmin, "If free you,
You'll consider, bite and sup;
You'll follow your tiger nature
And speedily eat me up"
"Ah no." said the tawny beauty,
"Think not so basely of me;
A protector I'll be ever
To him who sets me Free"
Then the tender-hearted Brahmin
Swung wide the heavy door;
(what gentle devotee can resist
When beautiful eyes implore y
The tigress leaped to her freedom
And frolcked in antics wild;
In her joy she seemed as sinless
And as innocent as a child.
But when her play was over
She said with frowning brow,
"Pm going to eat you, Brahmin,
For the tiger nature rules now"
Wounded and bruised and bleeding,
The Brahmin escaped from her claws,
But he vowed he'd never more espouse
Imprisoned beauty's cause.
1t is cruel to keep fair tigres0es
Immured in cages strong,
Where they suffer in utter helplessness
All their whole lives long
But when they turn and devour
The Brahmaus that set them free,
fear they will make people cautious
Don't you agree with me?

(8 Its Nature, Function and Power.
BY r. S. THOMPSON.

A proper understanding Of the science OF
money is essential to any correct comprehension
Of the methods necessary to relieve the present
industrial distress. Without clear comprehen-
sion of the nature, function and power OF money,
attempts to remedy existing evils are liable TO be
msdirecied and may result in injury instead OF
benefit.
"MONEY" gives thorough scientific and
careful explanation, starting from the iunda-
mental principles Of economics. II IS
so CLEAR AND SIMPLE
that a child can understand 1t. and will make the
whole matter plain TO any person who will lay
aside pre-conceived ideas and study this work
carefully.
FACTS AND FIGURES.
The book also contains a large quantity OF
valuable financial statistics, which viii be con-
tinually useful for reference.
"MoNEY" is by all odds the most valuable
work on the money question that has ever been
issued and should be carefully studied by every
voter.

Agreement.

NEW YORK, Aug. THE contrac-
tors are coming forward i'll such num-
bers to accede to the demands of the
striking tailors that it appears prob
able that the strike will soon be ended.
More than 30 contractors have signed
the agreement. These are the leading
contractors of the city, and they en-
ploy from 10 to so workmen each. AS
a result, 1000 tailors will resume work
in the morning. The settlement COM
mittee will continue to hold sessions
daily until all the contractors are ac-
commOdated who desire to be.
Samuel Gompers, the national labor
leader, who was one of the speakers at
a meeting of strikers, declared that the
strike was in line with the movement
of the workingmen all over the coun-
try for shorter hours of labor. He
said: 1.-The time has come When hours
of labor must be reduced. May l, 1896,

America will demand the enforcement

IN THE TETON BASIN.
United States Troops Nearing the Scene OF
Trouble. .... .aa....

DENVER, Aug. "A special to The
News from Cheyenne, Wy, says a
private dispatch received from Market
Lake states that The Ninth cavalry is
now encamped in Teton basin near
Marysvale. The troops will not be
moved into Jackson Hole until the re-
turn Of the Indian police, who were
sent ahead to try to induce the Indians
to return to their reservations. The
reports from Marysvale show that the
excitement is dying ont and many of
the settlers are returning to their
homes. The news of the near ap-
proach of the troops has caused a
bitter feeling among the settlers.
The dispatch states that the set
tiers had arranged to make an
attack on the Indian force
with the intention of driving them out
of the country, but after receiving the
message from Governor Richards ad
vising them to act only on the defen-
sive they have changed their minds. 1t
is claimed it will be necessary to keep
the troops in the field all summer, as
the Indians can only be held in check
by the presence of the soldiers.

GLADSTONE, Mich, Aug, 1.-The
swamps to the west and northwest of
the city below the bluff and in the
Goodman addition, as well as the
marsh lands on both sides of the 500
railway, are burning furiously. The
buildings on the Hammer property,
owned by W. D. Washburn, Jr.. OF
Minneapolis, were destroyed during
the afternoon. The timber now on
fire is of little value. The 500 railway
has all its available men and apparatus
ready in case the shops should catch
fire and in the city every precaution is
being taken to prevent the fire getting
into the residence and business por-
tions. The wind still remains in the
north and is blowing a gale and the
smoke in the streets is almost binding.
The fire department has been on duty
all day wetting down places where the
fire would be liable to catch from flying
embers.
Heavy fires are reported between
Sault Ste. Marie and Trout Lake, but
little west os that point.

DENVER, Aug. IA News special
from Cheyenne, Wy, says: The In
dian scare is spreading to the south
and east of Jacksons Hole and settlers
in Fremont county are becoming
alarmed. Governor Richards has re-
ceived the following from DR.. W.
Loveioy of South Pass, in the Miners
Delight mining district:
There is q band Of from 100 to SOC
Indians within half days ride Of this
place. They are III bucks and things
look shady here. We have plenty OF
ammunition and men but need guns.
Can you send a few stands OF arms"
Shortly after the receipt of the above
the following was received from Lead
stone, in the same district:
"Can you send US guns? Indians are
near here!"
Undoubtedly Utes.
The governor says the Indians nc
doubt are Utes from DuChesne who
are hanging around i'll the hope that
there will be big fight with the Ban
nocks, which will give them an oppor
tunity to make an attack upon the set
tiers and get back to their reservations
before the troops could interfere with
them. These settlements are about 81
miles south of Lander, and the gov
ernor says he does not believe they are
in any danger unless there should be {
fight in Hoback valley. He referred
the dispatches to r. D. Woodruff Of
Rock Springs, inspector general of the
state militia, with instructions TO use
bis discretion in the matter.

The Night Conductors Courtship.

The conductors ON the night runs are
usually more genial than those who
look after the fares in the daytime.
Just why this should be so is not quite
clear, but the fact that most Of them
conduct affairs Of the heart with young
women who are engaged in domestic
service during the daytime may have
something to do with it. In making as
signments the aim usually is to put the

evening dishes are out Of the way the
lady in whom he is interested boards

chats are not subject to frequent inter
ruptions, as the conductors are. Chi
