bered by old settlers Of Alder gulch,
having come TO Nevada in 1863, and ran
livery stable in that town until the
spring of 1865, when he took the Last
Chance fever. and went with the
crowd to Helena. He remained there
several years, and then went South.
where he got a captaincy on a Missis-
sippi steamer. When. metarlaoricaIlv
speaking. the railroads knocked out Of
the water all of the big boats that
hadn't been blown up while racing. or
sunk by Mississippi snaEs, Sam betook
himself 10 the alluring fields of South
America. where he went into business
as civil engineer. and soon got con-
froi OF several large contracts. in the
ming Of which he made considerable
money. As old age began 10 tell on
MIN, the desire TO return to his native
land came also. and early In December
ne took steamer for San Francisco. But
he was fated not To see the shores OF
home again, and death overlook him on
the day above mentioned. and ne was
buried at sea lie was - years old at

We have HAD no heavy SHOWS. at no

NIT the live stock to leave the land
contiguous To water. where summer
grazing has left but little grass. and
to so TO the hills and ravines, where
there were plenty OF grass and good
shelter, consequently cattle, sheep and
horses are in better condition than
usual at this time of the year. and the
losses will be very small in live stock
this season.
on Dec. Is we had heavy rain. and
the temperature at midday during the
month ranged from so TO so degrees
above zero. The only cold days during
the present winter were on Jan. 3. %
degrees below zero, and Jan. %. % de-
grees below zero. on the Sd and Attn
of the present month the temperature
at noon was over 40 degrees above
zero.
There is an active inquiry for cattle
and sheep, and recently | haW two in

possessions. Yearling and 2-year-old
steers are very much i'm demand. as
they are held at $l6 and s22 per head,
respectively these figures are consid-
cred as relatively high for present
prices of beef cattle in eastern mar
kets.
The high prices demanded by south

causing our cattlemen TO go West. and
very few sales have been made Of
southern stock growers to Montana
buyers. There is also a dspo-
eition TO place breeding stock

Rocky Mountain Husbandman: There
is no industry in the state that is MAX
ing more rapid strides than hog rails
ing. In the exceeding hard times that
have prevailed since 1888 the porker
has been the most ready sale in our
home market of any product of the
farm, and the hog is an animal that is
adapted to the wants of the small
farmer probably more than anything
else The hog can be raised in such
numbers as suits the dimensions and
products of the farm, and is equally
as profitable whether grown on a
large or a small scale. with other live
stock. and especially sheep il is neces-
sary 10 nave a good sized flock in order
to make it pay to give them the neces-
sary attention, but with hogs it pays
to keep any number. and il is a fact
that by having a few, even on the
smallest farm a great deal of waste is
prevented. Where the farmer milks
four or five cows it is very necessary
To have few hogs TO eat up the sour
milk and il is simply wonderful how
hogs thrive on this kind of food. The
Increase in the hog product is noticea-
