nnsv Even .In Winter.

Even the frosty days of early winter. although the work slackens, are busy ones about the central shops and build ings of the farm. The machines are hauled from the fields. the harness IS ranged upon the racks in the saddlery, the forge fires are kept burning all day long, and the business of getting ready for the work of the new year is begun when the results of the old one have been scarcely counted None of the wasteful neglect of old style farming is permitted. The machines and implements are all mended, oiled, and stored in dry quarters; harness and saddles, wagons and tools are put in order and safety. Then winter feed cutting is in order; scientific rules gov ern the mixing and apportioning of the fodder; new shelters are provided for the calves, and plans are completed for the housing, watering and sorting of the grown stock.
 The fifty scattered wind mills which supply the pasture lots with water for cattle must now be examined, strengthened, and repaired against the harsh winds of winter. Repair wa- gons are sent out equipped with tools and manned by trained mechanics. The repair gang spends a week on the tanks, troughs, pumps and windmills. The line riders are sent out to mend or renew the broken or wavering fences There are more than 100 miles of barbed wire fencing around the limits of the big farm. If there is much work to be done the fence re- pairing may occupy ten days. The riders sleep at the nearest house when darkness finds them far from head quarters, and resume their work at daylight. Gates. pens, posts. staples hundreds of miles of cross fences, corrals. chutes. and driveways have to be examined, tested. and put to rights. It is cold work, tugging at barbed wire and handling steel tools when the thermometer is about zero and the prairie wind is stinging from the north, but 1t pays, and 1t Is one of the details of farming which is never ov. erloolked on Ranch 101.

 It Is not probable that there will be an increase in the number or gigantic farms in the United states. The big Miilsr farm Is made possible by the fact that the Indians still control the freshoid and are unwilling or unable to operate their estates as profitably a. inc white men. As for the chance of any company of capitalists acquiring great arabic acreages in the future, 1t is a remote, an unlikely possibility. For the small landowner of Oklahoma of Kansas. of -Nebrasks, and the Dakotas has, in smaller way. been as progress siye as his richer rivals. He holds his land at a high price, and he does not want to sell at any price. He has dis covered that farming need not be drudgery.

Wagner struck me as being caus- tic, witty and able to converse on all subjects, because he was versed in them all. At times he would suddenly become vulgar, personal and overbear- ing.
