Notes from the Rance covotry.

Big Horn County. Wyoming.-The
ranges in this county ire in fne con-
dition and stock Of all kinds are TAX
ing on flesh fast. There were very
few cattle shipped out from here last
season on account Of the large amount
of cattle that were rushed into the
markets from the corn producing
states, so the shipments Of cattle from
this part of the country will be large
as soon as they are In shape for the
market. There are thousands Of head
Of cattle on the ranges in this part Of
the state that will be ready for mar
keting by the middle and latter part
of June. There will also be large
shipments Of horses and sheep. Our
county is overstocked now. and large
numbers are being brought In every
month from other states. The pros.
poets for large crops of small grain
were never better at this time Of year
than they are now. Frequent showers
have put the ground in fine condition

grain this year.-Geo. 8. vanderveer.

Improving the Land Through Feeding.
On many Of the European farms the
owners plan to feed their animals
rich food for the purpose Of indirect.
ly benefting the land ON which the
droppings are to go. Immense Quau.
titles Of cotton seed meal and linseed
cake are yearly fed to cattle and the
high-prtced land thus improved. What
is good thing for the European farm
ers should be better thing for farm.
ers on this side Of the water, because
we are at the base of supplies. The
Europeans have to buy these rich
feeds very largely from the United
States. They pay the cost Of trans
porting across the water and over
railroads. and for handling several
times, besides the toll to the various
middlemen under whose charge 1t
comes at various times. We should
take into consideration the manurial
value of the things we buy for our
cattle and other stock. with the OBJ.
ject of obtaining manure as rich a.
possible in fertility most needed ON
the land.

LEGACY TAXES.
Possibility of Some Being Paid Back to
Maine institutions.

The passage of the Mccall bill for
the refmding of legacy taxes paid by
educational and benevolent institu-
tons on bcquests means the ultimate
return of considerable sums to insti-
tutions in Maine, several Of them being
III Augusta. 1t is altogether probable
that the bill will pass the Senate and
become law ut this session of Con-
SrcsS. Here is Il list of the amount Of
taxes paid by various Maine institu-
lions under the war revenue act. which
will, in all probability, be refunded:

While the above is a correct list of
the legacy taxes paid, it is not entirely
certain that the refund of taxes is al
loWable under the provisions Of the
Mccall act, especially for the last six
items on the list. In some cases it will
probably develop that the taxes were
PAID by the executors or administrators
before delivered to the institutions in
question, in which case it is doubtful if
the amounts can be refunded. The
commissioner of internal revenue in
making public the list, made this eau
ton, as the circumstances in most Of
the cases will have to be investigated.

BE DocToRED THE EGGS.
A Physician Played sherlock Holmes
and Caught N DIShemest
Employee.

A Long Island doctor who has been
missing eggs from his poultry yard
for some time is happy at last, for
he has discovered the thief. For
months every effort and every device
to detect the culprit failed, but, final
~, the doctor hit upon a scheme that
was worthy of Sherlock Holmes.
He took dozen or more eggs and
bored the tiniest of holes in the shell
of each. Then through these holes he
introduced into the eggs piece of
very fine wire. The holes were then
filed with white wax and the eggs
returned to the nest.
A few days afterward the doctor was
called in to see the child of n woman
in the village near him. After attend
ing the child he talked about one thing
and another until the lady told him
of such n strange thing that had hap
pened TO her. A few days before she
had bought half dozen eggs from the
village grocer and in four of them she
had found short pieces of wire.
These were produced and shown 10
the doctor, who took possession of
them, and told the lady how they had
come TO be i'm the eggs. He then inter
viewed the grocer, who finally admitted
that he had been buying eggs for some
time from man employed by the
doctor. The man is now working else
where, says the New York Times, and
the doctor no longer patronizes that
particular grocer.

On the 10th of December, in the year

years of Baptist ancestry behind her.
From the days Of her young woman
hood Mrs. Livermore has always been
identified with the things that count
for most in life. She has ever been
ready to lend hand to any cause that
would make the world better. Our
country has never had-a more devoted
nor "a more powerful advocate of tenn

president of the Massachusetts w. G.
