look with disfavor upon the attempt &c

Several attempts were made In the pas
to organize the railroad m IN into a big
labor union here, but owing to the d.

way around the course. This was the
first time that Steamboat was ever mas
tered. but Hugh Clark, who is the best
rider in Wyoming, stuck to him for sew
eral minutes for our ecificaton. but his
brother Dan, who acted as master of
ceremonies, kept closely at his side to
prevent an accident which might easily
have been fatal.
Steamboat a Good Horse.
+ Steamboat is fourteen years old, and
was bred by Judge Frank W. Foss on
Chugwater ranch, fifty-five miles north
of Cheyenne. He is now owned by
Charles 3. Irwin, live stock agent of the
Union Pacific railroad, who has been
everything on a ranch and makes a bust
ness of running bucking and race
horses. He has a long string of buck
ers,' and when he hears of an animal
sends him " tn the rest of the string to
state fairs and other places for eX-
hibition purposes. Mr.. Irwin and his
wife and chi'dren-from six wears Oh
rand upward-are all exhibition riders
and have appeared frequently on From
tier day at Cheyenne and at other fairs.
and have won many prizes. Juella, h s
thirteen-year-old daughter, won the
woman's race at Cheyenne last year, and
Mrs. Irwin has several medals and
trophies for superior equestranship.
Steamboat has been before the public
for ten years and appears at county
fairs and frontier shows like an opera
singer on the stage for a stated price.
He has won many thousands of dollars
every year for his owner by unseating
the daredevls who have tried to de
him, but is no longer SO profitable as
formerly because people will not bet
against him. Stanley might have won
$50 600 last summer If he could have
foreseea his victory. and If he rides
again this year the odds on Steamboat
will not be SO heavy as they have
usually been.
Mr.. Hugh Clark, who has had care Of
Steamboat for several years, tells me
that the dispcs ton OF the horse * kind
and gentle: that he never. makes any
trouble in the stable or tie corral, aid
has no tricks. but he will not permit
anybody to ride him, and never would
do so. His breeders endeavored to break
him to the saddle and to harness. but
he could not be subdued. They finally
gave up the job and sold him to Charlie
Irwin for exhibition purposes.

him. Lawrence is likely to he the hero

the wagons because it would weaken his force TO
a point which would make victory over the REDS
practically impossible
Baldwin went to the teamsters and said: i
can't leave a force with you as a guard, and
you've got to charge with us. l want you to put
your teams in the center Of the charging line
and make those mules fly straight into the mid
die of things"
It probably was the first time in history that
mule drivers, mules and wagons had been ordered
to participate offensive part of a cavalry
charge. The infantry on this occasion was mount
ed The mule drivers lost all sense of the danger
in the fun of the thing. They told the lieutenant
that with good cussing," and with good flashing,
they could lead the cavalry mile.
The 500 Indians were a plateau with sides
shelving gradually down to the plains. Baldwins
plan was nothing less than the seemingly reckless
of crossing the open with his men and
wagons, sweeping up the incline and driving the
enemy, if he could, or fighting him hand to hand,
if he must.
The horsemen rode up in line with the four
mule teams abreast at the lines center. There
was word of command, trumpet note or two,
and the line swept across the plain with the
mules keen jump with black snake whips
cracking and the drivers saying things which a
mule understands
The reds turned loose at the advancing hun
dred. Men and horses on the right and left went
down here and there, but the mules in the center
with their huge wagons racking and gathering
behind them swept on with never scratch. The
reds on the plateau kept up their fusillade Up
up, up the incline, the mules leading by yards
all the way, swept the blue detachment The
regulars were daring and fighting as American
regulars always dare and fight.
One of the teamsters afterwards swore that he
could see Chief Gray Boards eyes popping with
fear at the sight of the charging mules. The
level of the plateau reached and horses,
men, mules and wagons went hurtng forward.
The teamsters standing, cracking their
whips and bowling. Infantrymen and cavalrymen
caught the spirit of the thing and howled in uni

every Long Tom was cracking, and with one last
volley the warriors of the allied tribes fed leav-
ing their dead and wounded and their white cap

Frank D. Baldwin has been in so many fights
for his country that the counting of them
sumes the proportion of mathematical problem
For years upon years after the civil in which
he distinguished himself time and again, he fought
nearly every form of Indian that the plains of
the United States has produced. There was one
fight in which Baldwin was engaged which de-
serves place in song and story, if song
story writer could be found equal to the oc-
casion. In the days of the campaign of which
this fight feature there only bar
on Baldwin's shoulder for he junior first
lieutenant of infantry. The campaign was long
one and the fights followed fast and followed
faster.
While detached service in Newport, KY, in
June, 1874, Baldwin heard that his regiment was
to be ordered under Col. Nelson A. Miles, to make
an expedition into the Indian territory. The lieu
tenant went to the front fast train and
horse could carry him. When he reported for
duty Miles, who knew Baldwin's record in the
civil war; put him in command of the
scouts of the expedition, command that
composed partly of whites and partly
of Indians
With his scouts back of him Lieut.. Baldwin
had dozen engagements one after another,
with the confederated bands Of Cheyennes, Kio-
was, Arapahoes and the southern Comanches.
The one fight however, which for picturesque
ness stands out most prominently in the battle
list did not take place until after Baldwin had
been in the field for many months. 1t was the
fight of his life, not in the engagements size nor
yet, perhaps, in its Importance but IN
what an officer who saw it declares
to have been 'fts howlingly funny fea
lures
It was picturesque and it was funny all right,
but it dangerous well, and Baldwin lost
some of his men, and took his own life in his
hands 20 times before he won his splendid victory
against tremendous odds. The daring of the
thing was recognized by Col. Miles, by the gen.
eral commanding the department, and by the
congress of the United States, which gave Bald
win his second medal of honor for his work on
that day

Trees. Like Human Eeings, Must Be
Dealt with InteIIigently.

Trees are much like human beings
and each tree has an individuality all
its own, and must be dealt with &C.
cordingly. AS in any other business,
one must have a liking for the work
and become acquainted with all of the
factors that enter into the problem.
Where one succeeds another fails, al
though the environments of each may
be the same. Success does not de-
pend wholly on the kind of soil or the
location of the orchard; these are
minor factors.
With young orchard the first OBJ
ject, after the trees are we'll set in
soil that has had at least two years
preparation, is to adopt such methods
of cultivation and fertilization for the
land as shall give the best possible
healthy growth to the trees. The few
years that intervene between the set
ting and the bearing periods are the
most vital to the future productive
ness of the orchard. During this pc
Rod a judicious method of pruning
must be Systematically followed in
order to grow trees of the desired
shape.
No orchard will yield good returns
unless it receives good care and at
tention.
Glover is the apple trees best friend
and right-hand supporter. It is the
economical nitrogen storage battery,
the most essential element for the pro.
duction of the tree.
In any case it is much better for
each individual orchardist to try his
own experiments to determine what
his own particular orchard needs in
the way of fertilizer than to go hap
hazard and think that he must do just
as his neighbor or some one else does
The fertilizers required on another
orchard might be entirely thrown
away on his own. A few years spent
in careful, judicious manner will be
the only way to reach satisfying
solution Of the fertilizing problem.
We will assume that the belief is
prevalent that it pays to cultivate and
spray whatever the other conditions
of the orchard may be, so in order to
make the fertilizer test one should
treat the trees of the whole orchard
alike as to all other conditions. This
is the only way to make satisfactory
test and If it is not Thoroughly and
accurately done the owner will be the
only loser and the experiment will be
total failure. 1t is one of the things
to be deplored that the average farmer
does not try to use his own indi
vidualty in his business, but is willing
to follow the same methods from year
to year that he has learned from those
who went before. These tail-end
methods are not successful and never
will be.
The business methods of a decade
past could never succeed under the
present system. If not in business
why should they in farming? The
present generation has every oppor
tunity for advancing over the one just
passed

GROUND FOR SMALL FRUITS.
How to Prepare the Land for Setting
Them Out.

In fitting the land I plow from six
to ten inches deep, depending upon
the nature and depth of the soil and
character of the subsoil. With float
and harrows I then reduce the soil to
the desired condition.
There are two things or factors to
be considered in this connection says
a writer in Orange Judd Farmer,
which, if fully comprehended, will en-.
able one to proceed with the work
more intelligently: First, we should
understand that ideal root feeding
conditions require fineness and mel.
lowness in a soil. This permits the
rootlets to spread easily in all direc.
lions so that the root hairs may come
in touch with every soil grain and ap.
propriate the film of moisture thereon
with it's plant food constituents. All
Jumps and clods must be reduced to
the necessary degree of fineness, If
the plants are to have the full benefit
of the soil.
Second, the soil must be reduced to
a certain degree of compactness, the
soil grains touching at parts to make
perfect capillary action, or upward
movement of soil moisture. If left
too loose, this capillary action will be
imperfect. More than this, in this
loose condition, there is a too free cir.
culation of air, which carries away
what little moisture there may be
present. Under ideal conditions of
soil there is at the same time strong
capillary action and perfect soil AGRA.
ton.
For marking off the ground l use
a wheel marker. Wheels about ten.
inches in diameter and III inches in
thickness, sawed out of boards or
from log are fastened to a light
frame by means of strap or metal
hinges. This method of attaching the
frame on which the wheel turns to the
main frame permits the WHEELS to ad
just themselves to any inequality in
the surface of the ground.
consider it great advantage to
check mark the ground. This permits

to be layered. BY this method weed
