Care OF Young Goslincs.

Young goslings are soon able to care
for themselves after the weather be-
comes warm, and the keeping of geese
is therefore less expensive than with
some other kinds of poultry, as they
prefer to forage and secure their food
on a pasture lot The keeping OF geese
for their feathers only is not profitable,
compared with using the large Embden
or Toulouse varieties and shipping fine
young geese to market, as they bring
good prices when large and Of the best
quality.

New Styles in Horses' Hats.

Leading styles in horses headweat

range from one dollar upward at retail.

OrIrin of Word Erinrn.

The word "gringo." which Mexicans
apply to Americans when speaking Of
them with contempt. is said TO have
had its origin thus: During the Mexi-
can.American war our soldiers got into
the habit Of calling the simple Mexican
"greenies," TO signify their ignorance
OF things in general. and OF military
tactics especially. The Mexicans re-
taliated by calling the Americans
"greenos." and this word finally DC
generated into "grinos."

A Serious Mistake.

1t is a mistake to put crops into the
ground and then not care for them.
That is like working hard to earn
money and then throwing it to the
winds. We sow because we want to
reap; but if we are unwilling to give
.he crops we nave put into the ground
proper care, we may never see much
return for our labor. 1 have seen

crop. 1t demands better care than
that.-The Epitomist.

NEWS FRon THE OIL FIELDS.

Is IS most surprising thing
how the speculative elements in
booms bound to the surface,
flourish spectacularly and then
tamely subside. The most recent
illustration is afforded in the oil
boom at Boulder and elsewhere.
During February oil literally had
the flow. People sprang up as if
by magic over an extensive terri
tory, but while good wells were
opened no gushers we're struck
People seemed to make up their
minds that they wanted a gusher
and as no gusher was found in a
week or two they suddenly lost
interest in everything eleoginous.
Now it is not reasonable to be-
lieve that nature has placed a few
barrels of oil in three or four
places over the district and 80 ex-
hausted itself. 1t is much more
reasonable to think that that there
are large reservoirs of oil in a
district which with such small ex-
penditures has already made such
a great showing. If there was
reason for a boom in February
there is really very much more
reason for one in March, when
development has added to the
tangible stock of oil and thousands
of dollars have been and are being
spent in building derricks and
sinking wells 1t is simply ridio-
ulous either that the boom should
ever have been started, or having
been started, that it should have
30 suddenly sagged.
Indeed there never was time
in the history of the oil excitement
when the prospects were 30 promis-
ing in 30 many directions as now
The oil is there and it is going to
be found in great quantities. Those
who so quickly lose heart should
pluck up their spirits, hang on to
whatever intelligent investments
they may have made and watch
the indicator, for there will soon
be something doing in oil.-Den-
yer Times.
