BIG PRICE FOR MONTANA HORSES


Teams Bring from $500 to s7OO Be
cause of Mining Activity.
Horsefesh is rated highly in Mon
tana these days. Horses are now be-
ing held for higher prices than ever
before. The demand for horses for
work upon the Billings and Northern
and Milwaukee extensions no doubt ac-
counts In a great measure for this
state of affairs. Horsemen say that
animals are not particularly scarce,
but there is an enormous demand for
them. Teams that sold three years
ago for $3.50 are now selling for $500
to $7OO.
The increased mining activity in the
State is also furnishing employment to
many animals In hauling timber, sup
plies and machinery to the mines and
In hauling ore to the railroads. Not
few mines in the State have been
forced to curtail their output Of ore on
account of the difficulty Of securing
teams.
Sound teams, weighing about 1,4OC
pounds, are not to be secured for @
nickel less than $500 to $780," said a
horseman. sin all my experience
never saw animals quoted at such high
prices. The demand for them la. some
thing enormous and even at these higf
figures 1t is pretty hard to secure goot
teams."-New York Herald.

Some New York Climbers.

When all has been said there is no
'ity on earth where merit is 50 quickly
'ecognized and rewarded as in New
ork. A boy enters the service of a
abroad corporation and at the age of
s he is general manager Of a great
traction system. True, he has a dis
lawyer and statesman for
an uncle, but he starts at the bottom,
md his promotion Is due to his own
axertion. Such is the career Of Oren
Root.
H. H. Vreeland, a brakeman with
out pull, raises himself In a short pc
'iod to the presidency Of the Metropol-
tan Railway Company. Within two
generations all the spectacular for
cunes of New York have been made
from nothing.
Reward of merit comes quickly In
other fields. Charles E. Hughes,
comparatively obscure lawyer, is Sc
iected to conduct an important inyes
legation In which the whole country l!
interested. Without having previously
held office, a very novice, he Is made
governor Broadway Magazine.

Change in Cotton Growing.

Flat cultivation of cotton, as intro
duced by the Arkansas experiment sta
ton, is finding favor with the lint
growers of that state over the old
method of hill tillage, the advantage
being in the saving of labor and econ
omy of seed, and, it is declared. better
yield.
Under old practice, says Southwest
Magazine, the soil was thrown up in a
furrow and the seed sown continuously
in drill. Later the plants were thin
ned to a single stand by hoelng the
entire surface Of the cotton row and
cutting away nineteen Of every twenty
| stalks.
Flat cultivation consists Of thorough
" preparing the seed bed and planting
the cotton in checks eighteen to twenty
four inches apart in drill, to enabl'
cultivation In both directions, a methot
that will naturally lessen the work o
the chopper and save a greater part o
the seed.

Remarkable Success

The great house Of Sherman, Clay &
Co., pioneer Pacific coast piano dealers,
purchased the entire system Of stores Of
the Allen & Gilbert Ramaker company,
July l, 1906. The first year has just
closed and it has been year Of marked
success. The people of the Northwest
have become wearied by the numerous,
almost continual, Especial" "fake,"
and spectacular piano sales, in which
they were supposed to be able to buy
$500. 90 piano for 1898. 90, etc.
Sherman, Clay & Company came into
this territory without blare of trum-
pets, inaugurated no opening or special
sale, but simply stated that they were
ready for business. Every piano and
organ was marked in plain figures and
thus child could buy any instrument
as cheaply and safely as could state
senator, or any one, anywhere, could
order by mail and secure the same
price and terms as he could by visiting
the store.
The results have shown that the
people appreciate such policy. The
business came-sales increased in num-
ber-orders came from far and near by
letter, telephone and telegraph. The
business grew by leaps and bounds.
We understand that even Sherman,
Clay & Company were surprised at the
rapid development of trade.
Doubtless the great success was large
~ due to the fact that Sherman, Clay
& Company's reputation had preceded
them, for they have been selling pianos
at the conrner Of Kearney and Suffer
streets, San Francisco, for over thirty
five years and every Californian will
vouch for the integrity Of the house and
the reliability Of their pianos. Such
pianos as the world celebrated Stein
way, Knabe, Everett, Packard, and
