Riparian RIGHTS Decision.

An important decision has recently
been given by the Michigan supreme
court in a suit brought by mill owners
who had maintained a dam across a
river for water power for mill purposes,
above which dam were two lakes that
were in the river channel. These lakes
the defendants undertook TO deepen and
so cut off the water supply and destroy
the power for a portion of the year. In
dispoSing of the.case the supreme court
said that the complainants have the
right to have the water flow naturally
without being accelerated or impeded,
except to the extent that the current
rights of the upper riparian proprietors
may affect such result, and that in so
far as the use of the stream above re-
suits in inconvenience or impedes the
use of the stream by complainants.
The circuit Judge was of the opinion
that the flow of water would not be di-
minished by the deepening of the river,
but the supreme court thought it clear
that by deepening the channel the wa
ter will be carried off more rapidly than
it now is. Indeed, if it was not expected
that this would be the result of the i'm
provement, the justices were at a loss to
understand why the improvements was
undertaken. The latter, therefore, re-
versed the decree of the court below,
dismissed the complaint and e%nioined
the proposed deepening of the river

FEEDING CATTLE,
Plan Followed Probably By a New Mexico
Man In Colorado.

Hon. J. A. Lockhart, formerly of
Deming, now manager of the Alfalfa
Land and Cattle Company in Colorado,
believes that the feeding of cattle, in
the future, will be done on the western
p~rairies instead Of in the cornfields of
the Mississippi and Missouri valleys.
Mr.. Lockhart's plan of feeding cattle is
as follows:
He takes calves six months old and
puts them in fenced lots and feeds them
on alfalfa, supplemented by 1 pound Of
n corn meal per day, fed dry from
troughs, increasing the corn meal as
winter approaches to 2 pounds per head
per day. AS soon as they become used
to the feed he dehorns them. In the
spring he turns them on native grass
pasture or range. In the fall he takes
them up and puts them in feed lots
for, say, six months, with other solid
food. AT from Is months to 2 years old
they are ready for the market, will
weigh about LOO pounds, and command
top prices.
The secret of the great advantage by
this plan is that by taking the calves
from the cows and feeding them as de-
scribed the stomach is rapidly distend-
ed, instead of being allowed to become
contracted and rigid, which must of ne
allowed to u on the range after wean-
ing. For when the stomach is perma-
nently contracted by eating dry food
and range grass directly after the calf
has been weaned, it is impossible to OBJ
tain satisfactory results from full feed
ing later IN. These facts will account
for the poo results obtained from the
full feeding Of stock which has been
allowed to run on the range until 3 or
4 ear Of age.
Another advantage should be noted.
By taking calves early form the COWS
the latter are enabled to recuperate in
flesh so as to be in better condition to
go through the winter-a fact which
unquestionably will largely increase the
percentage and quality of the calves,
besides increasing the capacity Of the
range. Mr.. Lockhart stated that it had
cost his company 5000 to demonstrate
the foregoing, citing as an illustration
that several years ago it purchased
$500 head of range cattle in Mexico at
81 per head, shipped them to the most
desirable points in Kansas, and after
feeding them all winter marketed them
at a loss Of SIS, 200.
Yet another advantage is gained by
this plan in saving the cost Of branding
the calves and the detriment thereby
caused to the hides. This alone will pay
for fencing the range pasture. Farmers
should also note that this plan for feed
ing calves applies with equal force to
sheep, and it's general adoption would
prevent unreasonable loss in the rails
ing of the latter animals.

The Boston Wool Market.

There has been no change in the de.
mand for wool during the last few days
and the sales have been heavy. Holders
are firm in their views of higher prices
and many are holding good lots for an
advance. Territory woods continue to
lead in sales at 55@57c, secured, for fine
medium and fine white, and 60@65c fol-
strictly staple goods. Fleece woods con-
tinue in good demand, and prices are
hard and likely ito go higher. Austria
liam woods are limited, and very little is
being done. Prices are firm.

OUR BEARDED
LADY.

Designing men, through ~alluring and Gun
ningly worded advertisements, constantly
endeavor to work upon the feelings of sick
and ailing women by inviting them to write
to a a0onaH % and secure a z00nan's SYM
pathy." 1t is we'll to remember that the
best sympathy is to had at home and not
from strangers, perhaps hundreds of miles
distant. The object of the sick is TO get well.
and however precious sympathy NAV be, il
never yet cured a seriously afflicted woman
While the sympathy of your milliner OF
dressmaker might be appreciated and be
just as beneficial, if not more so, than SYM
pathy from a stranger, yet it can not effect
your cure if you are an ailing woman.
1t is loudly proclaimed through the press
that "a woman can best understand a
woman's ailments" and on this ground sick
women are invited to write to a woman u
and get the benefit of a woman's advice.
The sort of understanding of her ailments
wanted by a sick woman is a trained medi.
cal understanding. If a woman has this
trained medical knowledge she understands
woman's ailments not as a mo but as a
Physician. If she is not a doctor she cannot
understand the ailments at all, and cannot
treat them successfully, because she lacks
the necessary training.
AS far as known, there is no regularly
qualified woman physician connected with
any proprietary medicine especially de.
signed for women-no one, therefore quail.
fed by learning and experience, to advise
on questions of disease and its cure.
1t is certain that there is no one, man or
woman, connected with any put up"
medicine for women, excepting only DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, who, like
DR.. Pierce, is a regular graduated and quail
fed physician, and who has, like him, de-
voted more than thirty years to the special
study and treatment of diseases of women.
For more than thirty years DR.. R. v.
Pierce, a regularly graduated doctor, has
been chief consulting physician of the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of
Buffalo, N. Y. On his staff are nearly a
score Of regularly graduated, experienced,
skilled physicians, each of whom is a spec
ialist In his chosen class of diseases. Ev-
cry letter addressed to DR.. Pierce as above,
has prompt conscientious attention, is re-
garded as sacredly confidential and is an
swered in a plain envelope so your private
affairs are kept safe from prying eyes.
