The Care of Livestock.

If the testimony of great numbers of
the readers of the New York Tribune
Farmer is fair basis for the formation
of correct opinion, then what is known
as its Veterinary Department is every
where esteemed highly. 1t is. however,
DIR. e. d. Smead. who has had charge of
it for more than five years, every week
answers very many questions in regard
to every variety of livestock known on
the American farm, not alone prescrib-
ing medicines and treatment, but telling
how the diseases might have been pre-
vented, and laying down specific rules
for feed and care in health, in sickness
and in convalescence. Every farmer
keeps some livestock-goOd veterinarians
are scarce.
Each inquirer is fully answered, but
DIR. Smead goes far beyond this; he be-
lieves that any information which one in.
telligent farmer needs is also needed by
hundreds and thousands of others, and he
often so broadens his answer as to make
it complete essay on the subject dis
cussed. A year or two ago Mr.. b.
Walker McKeen of Fryeburg, Me-, said
in meeting of farmers that a valuable
horse had been attacked with a disease
of which he had known nothing until he
had recently read of it in The New York
Tribune Farmer: what DIR. Smead had
taught him enabled him to save his
horse. Another farmer arose and said
he had had similar experience. Five
or six hundred dollars saved in one town
by one copy of the paper ! G. C. Waller,
M. D., of North Troy, VT, writes to DIR.
Smead, under date of April 23: II de-
sire to express my gratitude to you
through The New-York Tribune Farmer,
and to say that regard you as the most
able, practical and thoroughly safe writer
of the present age, and to express my
hope that you may live to serve the far
mer and our dumb friends for many
years to come"
The regular price of The New.York
Tribune Farmer is One Dollar a year,
but we will send it with The Register
both papers one year for $3.50.

The Two Vital Cuban Questions

There are two especially vital questions
in Cuba today. The first is whether II is
possible for Osbans themselves to main
tain anything approaching stable and
effective government without the direct
help, military support and political gui-
dance of the United States. The second
is, that If Cuba be judged incapable of
secure and successful self-governments,
should the Intervention of the United
States take the form of a protectorate or
of definite and unqualified annexation
Nothing seems clearer to any observer
of Cuban affairs and conditions than the
fact that the Cubans today are absolute
ly incapable of efficient self-government.
When the United States handed over the
reins of government to the Republic I'M
der President Palma, it delivered a
country freed and unshackled from its
centuries of abuse, its cities swept and
garnished, its plague spots obliterated,
its streets and highroads amplified AMI
improved, its credit established and its
treasury replete.
What has happened since ? No fur
ther improvements have been attempted,
the treasury has been sacked of sixty
millions of dollars by fraudulent war
claims bought up by political spectators.
the country has been plunged into debt
and its future credit involved.-Metro-
politan Magazine.

About 80 years ago there was en-
acted in old Wallula a scene which
demonstrated the fearless character of
the late General Howard. says the
Wallula Gateway. 1t was short time
before the breaking out of the Nez
Perce war and. the Indians were rest
less and insolent. Chief Smokehollow
had arranged with General Howard
for a pow-wow at old Wallula.
Early in the morning of the ap-
pointed day the Indians began cross
ing the Columbia river and debarked d
near the present boat landing. After
all had crossed, party comprising
700 or 500 braves, all in war cos
tune, line headed by Chief Smoke
hollow was formed and marched to
the government building at old Wal
lula. Here the warriors were met by
General Howard; his private secre-
tary. Ed Chambreau, and John Nc
Balm, an interpreter.
The Indians were dressed in full
war costume and in an angry mood.
After the "big talk" had proceeded
for a while, Chief Smokehollow
through the interpreter. told General
Howard that he lied. This assertion
met with the approval of the savages
who emitted gurgle OF assent so posi-
tive that 1t filled the hearts Of the
white spectators with grave apprehen.

OF General Howard asserted itself

road.
Everyone in and around Caldwell
talks railroad glibly at the present.
One man yesterday told the bus
mess mems committee that he would
not give a cent toward building the
new road for he was convinced 1t
would absolutely do Caldwell an In
jury and he did not wish to become
party to tearing down a city with
so promising a future.
We have all been told by some one
that this road is going to build UP the
city and until we have been told by
some one else we are going to stick
by the first story, say the knowing
ones who are pushing this work. All
kinds OF teams and scrapers are at
work and the actual dirt Is being
moved.
Everything is being pushed into
service. The first two miles Of grade
on the Caldwell end is to be complet-
ed In six more days. That's going
some," remarked one of Caldwells
timid young ladies this morning when
this news first reached her ears.
The actual construction work is be-

The surveyors have cross-sectioned
the line to the Snake and are about
ready to giye the grades elsewhere.
Mr.. Carter promises to have the two
miles ready for the ties and rails by
Wednesday night next The local
workmen near Caldwell are doing all
the work at present and will be kept
at 1t so long as there is sufficient force
at hand. A little later when farm

WYOMING OIL BELT.
Rapid Development OF New Industry
Near Lander.


A correspondent from Lander,
Wyo., writing to the Cheyenne Tri-
hume says of the development of the
oil fields near Lander, to which place
o. C. Edwards formerly Umatilla
Indian agent went from Pendleton to
locate as agent for an oil company:
+. j. Lobell, of Chicago, one Of the
Dallas, has been here for several days
on business connected with the fur
thcr development of these valuable
properties which he announces are
to be put in operation in the very
near future. He states that a pipe
line will be built at once for the trans
portation of the Oil to the railroad in
order to supply fuel fcr the North
western.
After the field is more fully devel-
oped refinery will be built at Lam
der to refine the oil which is of too
good a'grade to be used for fuel oil.
Jos. Fl. Lobell, Of London, England,
the senior member of the firm is ex-
pected here in short time to arrange
for the opening UP of the wells and
the drilling of new ones in order to
put their property on a paying basis.
Much attention is now being given
to other portions of the Lander
field.
The National Drilling company
composed largely OF Casper people
now have their well on the Beebe
lease Just below town, down 1850 feet
and will continue sinking until the oil
strata is reached. The Independent
OIL & Refining company who pur-
chased the Pitts lands, comprising $40
acres on the oil anticlinal about four
miles east of town are making prep
arations to begin drilling in the near
future.
The Chicago Wyoming company
has standard outfit at work on CO.
coanut creek, about 25 miles north
east OF town. They have a fine rig
and expect to reach the oil sands in
about two weeks if no unforeseen
difficulties are encountered.
/ George H. Hickey, of Detroit, Mich,
member Of the syndicate that took
some $4,000 acres of oil leases in this
vicinity more than a year ago, arrived
this week to begin operations on their
leases.

The Caldwell correspondent Of the
Boise Capital News reviews the latest
developments concerning the s. F., l..
& NJ. as follows:
TITS a case Of putting up $4,000
or. letting the road cross few miles
below us" seems to be the universal
talk Of the town at the present, this
sum being the bonus that Caldwell is
eagerly giving the San Francisco, Ida
no & Montana road for crossing the
Short Line In the limits of Caldwell.
Remember Lots wife" was once up
on time told to some people who
were about to get funny, but the
Caldwell people are not told to re-
member Lots wife but to remember
Boise. Boise some years ago had an
opportunity to get the main line of a
certain road II they would dig up a
nice round sum of filthy lucre but
tney QlQ not ~ IL, anu touoy 'hSy ~
member Lots wife pretty clearly.
OF course that certain railroad that
acted along the lines Of contrarlness
and put its line another way leaving
Boise out In the cold has one useless
hill on the present line that has cost It
already good deal more than to have
put the line through Bose and that
same hill will forever continue to be a
heavy bill OF expense. SO say the WISE
acres who are Just now getting many
hours of consolation out OF their abili-
ty to tell now railroads and cities
ought to be builded.
Caldwell is fast gathering in the
$4,000 and will have It to plunk down
instanter when the time is up and in
the meantime the new line has large
force of teams rushing the work on
the first few miles out OF the city. The
work is comparatively easy on account
OF the good dirt and the level con-
tour. 1t will cost not more than $4,000
per mile for the first 90 miles of the
road in the direction of California
and our $4,000 will only actually

a short time they took their canoes,
recrossed the stream and disappeared.
General Howard was a devout
Christian. During the Nez Perce war
there were some who thought that the
general could have made better pro-
gress had he spent less time at prayer
and more in pursuit of the savages.
However that may be, he fills an hon.
ored grave and his name will go down
in history as one of our bravest gen.
erals.
