which were bred for him there by Col
onel Lopez. well known to Butte horse
men. With the lot was sent back Mr..
Macdougalrs little black bitch, Sweet
Idleness, well known on the locaffpllrs-
ing field. This gritty little animal was
bred recently to Master Glenkirk. a
great winner in his day, and own BROTH
er to the sire of Billy Walker.
There were four saplings in the ship
ment of which one is by the imported
dog Crawford Lad, a son of Falconer,
winner of the English Waterloo cup in
1894, and out of Carmen. a great bitch
herself, and own sister to Minneapolis
and Rochester, who divided the Ameri-
can Waterloo in 1897. This youngster is
a dog of wonderful size and quality,
but unfortunately has a hip knocked
down. so will be only useful for breed
ing purposes, in which line his services
should be invaluable to Butte breeders.
The others are as follows: Dog sap
ling, by Twister-Sweetlips, quallty
young gentleman, but looks little del
icate; a smashing big dog sapling, by
Twister- Fanny H, own sister to the
great MiaImo, and a bitch saplins, by
Twister- Camilla, thus own sister to
Lopez's great sapling. Sara, that was
considered the best sapling that came
out last year.
Spindle, by Twister- Brunette, was
bred last week to Wayfarer, great
California racing hound, and Will be
returned to Mr.. Macdougall soon.

BETTER THAN THE oLpEN DAYS
Modern Medical Education Is More
Thorough Than Fifty Years Ago.

Every one does not sigh for 1.-The days
of long ago" The better mans edu-
cation and the wider his experiences
the more he appreciates modern sys-
TENS of education and realizes that the
world is progressing in the right d.
rection. when | was young" re-
marked a physician of eminence the
other day, lit would have been deemed
rank heresy to omit Greek and Latin in
the education of a boy intending to
enter my profession. To-day I'm not
so sure about it. The sum total of
things to be learned has increased en-
ormously these 30 years, but the time
for learning them is just the same.
I'm doubtful whether a present day
young man has any hours to spare for
the ClassicS-of course ] mean a young
man who proposes to fight his own way
in the world. l have son who is 60
ing to be a doctor and when he entered
college two years ago | consented re-
luctantly to his taking a scientific
course, without Greek or Latin. At
present he is splendidly equipped to be-
gin the study of medicine. Instead OF
spending his time on the languages he
devoted himself to chemistry. physics
and bacteriOlogy and l am bound to
admit that he has laid magnificent
foundation for his future profession. l
regret the neglect of classics in his
course, because | know they give Ger
tain elegance to ones habit of thought
that nothing can replace, but it is a
practical question of time and into 2
won't go. 1t is becoming very apparent
to my mind that modern education
must be pruned down to the essentials
and the decorative features left to the
inclination and opportunity of the in
dividual. Our common school curricu-
lum contains a good deal of dead tim
Der that ought to be Topped off with
out delay. The capable young person
of the next generation will know ev-
erything about little. The day when
we can know a little about everything
has gone by"

AN INVENTIVE GENIUS
The Latest Achievement of Neal
Shulin.
IMPROVED LAWN MOWER
1t Will Cut the Grass at Any Desired
Height-An Arrangement SINH
lar to Field Moving
Machine.

Neal P. Shulin of this city is an in
IL years been working as a salesman
in this city he has nevertheless not al
lowed his ingenuity to follow in one
rut-he has applied his talent and in
ventive genius to good advantage. A
few years ago he received patents on a
cigar and match safe and a combina-
ton bureau, book and dressing case.
His latest achievement, however, is a
lawn mower. This simple, yet appar-
emily perfect, piece of mechanism is
the pride of his collection. He has re-
Gently had constructed cast-iron
model of his machine and to the mind
of the expert in such lines it would
seem to be compilation of perfect i'm
provements on the popular hand-pro-
PEELED lawn mower.
For several years Mr.. Shulin has ap-
piled his genius in the direction of i'm
provement upon ideas evolved until at
last he believes he has struck the proper
thing in lawn mowers. For seven years
he has worked for the Siegel Clothing
company, and his spare hours have
been devoted to the perfeCting of his
model. Now he controls the patent for
his machine not only in the United
States, but also in England and Can
ada
His objects were to provide mower
which should be simple and inexpensive
in construction, effective in operation,
strong and durable. BY reason of its
peculiar construction it will cut the
grass at any desired height, from half
an inch to about six inches from the
ground II is constructed with the view
to preventing the wheels and sickles
from becoming clogged, whether the
grass be wet or dry. The arrangement
is similar to the field moving machine,
in that it cuts by means of sickle bars,
with the oscillating or reciprocatinS
movement. The bar rests in front of
the wheels. which are similar in con-
structon to those of the field mower.
In these wheels are the cogs which pro-
pei the connecting Cogs and ratchets
which, in turn, engage the cam wheel
which furnishes the Zigzag or osciilat-
ing motion for the cutter bar. The
mower is light and easy to propel, sim
pie to manage and something of an
ornament Mr. Shulin has had many
callers since his model arrived from
the East and they all say that the
mower is all right.

lar to those found at Senator Felt0n's.
The apple trees do not give evidence
of crop quite as heavy as will be
gathered at the former place, but
they will yield pretty well perhaps
fair average crop.
Mrs. Whistler also has a good
showing of apples. While the num-
ber of trees is not large, they are
well fruited, and probably more apples
will be marketed from the place this
year than were sold in 1898.
]. G. Harvey has % acres and l5
varieties of apples. He will get a
good average crop. So will Win.
Reynolds, who has similar place ad-
Joining and dozen varieties Of anples
Mrs. Wilson and Mrs Ewart are

the people all round there who have

look that is before them.
When the reporter accosted Tru-

is the condition of your fruit" the
veteran fruit grower glanced up with
q radiant smile upon his face. His
reply was hearty and to the point.
Looks good sir. looks good. ! see
no reason why there should not be a
good crop of fruit in the Arkansas
valley this year. 1t will be kind of
spotted-thst is, trees that bore
heavy last year will have light crop,
but on the whole the crop will be fully
| up to the average. l have only seven
or eight varieties of apples, a few
pear trees, plums and cherries. The
apples are fine. Pears are good.
One variety of plums is all right.
Black cherries are not injured in the

am satisfied that the fruit will be less

course, give US better fruit, and
necessarily better prices.
Yes, sir | feel very much en-
couraged. Even if our crop is a
little short, which do not anticipate,
the extra prices we shall be in posi-
tion to command will more than equal
ize matters, i believe the fruit pros
pect for 1899 is very fattering. 1
do not advance any theories. Out
grew the habit several years ago.
John Locke has seven acres, with
twenty-five varieties Of apples, which
are better than average. He also
has good many peach trees, but the
outlook for a crop from these is not
very promising. Plums and cherries
will not produce well, and the grapes
will be late. Mr.. Locke's vineyard is
coming out in splendid shape, how
ever, although it is way behind the
customary season for the leaving pro-
cess.
A strange thing was also witnessed
in Mr.. Locke's orchard, which may
envolve new theory in regard to
blight and its cause. One of the old
apple trees was stricken last year and
many of its limbs and much Of the
new growth succumbed to the blight.
1t was thought to be beyond recovery
and given up to die. But this year
the very limbs that were apparently
dead are sending out new shoots right
on top of those that were blasted.
1t was a peculiar sight to see fresh
green leaves putting out from a
withered stem, in some instances
from almost the identical spot where
last years dead and shriveled leaves
still clung to the stem.
Lincoln Park orchards are all in
good shape. B. |. Dawson furnishes
as good an illustration, perhaps,as can
be found. His trees were planted by
Dali DeWeese when the Rocky Mount
ain Nurseries were first started and
have attained to prodigious proper
tions. They wintered without injury
and are bountifully fruited. Many
younger orchards were visited, some

on anything else, but it was finally
decided to leave history for one year,

her the admiration Of the club. Mrs.
