his experiments in crossing buffalo
with domestic breed Of cattle, and
Mr.. Roosevelt said If he could succeed
in crossing that old-fashioned buffalo
robe he would accomplish wonders
So when the president recently saw
the immense silky robes, dark, curly
and respondent, like Russian sable,
he told Mr.. Jones he had fame before
him.
So great has been the success OF the
experiment that the government has
set aside an immense tract of land In
Arizona for a ranch and the further
development of these cross-bred buff
faloes.

to turn the edges over twice, thus con

tin containing the soil and plant was
lifted aud placed in the barrow Pro

tanned the barrow was wheeled to the
plot previously prepared and the tins
with the plants all set in their proper
places. Then spreading the wings
slightly the tins readily slipped out,

The blade needs about the same tenn

cumbersome nor heavy, and the ease
of management will appeal to every

(Game Warden of Yellowstone Park,
Who Has Bred New Animai.)

l observed that while the plains were
covered with dead herds as far south
as Texas, in not a single case did

and smooth, and | saw several small
herds in what was then No Mans
Land, now Oklahoma. Among the
hundreds of thousands of dead cattle
not one carcass of buffalo appeared.
That set me thinking. | thought long
and deep.
Mature has taught buffaloes how
to live and keep fat in the widest
weather. They will not only find
plenty of grass after the fiercest bliz-
card, but if there Is a shortage they
will luxuriate on the roots of any
kind OF heritage, as well as bushes and
the limbs and buds of cottonwood
trees. No matter how terrible a bliz-
card may be, buffaloes turn their faces
to the storm and will stand for days
in a beating norther' that would kill
the latest American cattle or drive
them hundreds of miles southwark.

A eeneficient Weed.

A lady remarked to a representative
of the Farmers Review the other day
that sweet clover had been introduced
from Europe and had become a ter
rible weed. But 1t is a beneficent
weed. 1t takes possession Of the
waste places and loves them best
where the ground is hardest 1t drives
it's roots deep into the soil and mel
lows it. On its roots feed the bacteria
that create the tubercles. In their
homes these bacteria manufacture in
to available nitrates the free nitro
gen Of the air They thus plow the
ground, fertlize it and make way for
other plants.
