cut once more and took up the trail.
The moon had risen, lighting up the
desert, and the Usage guides, together
with the two scouts, led the way. AT
Clusters request Hamlin rode beside
him In the lead of the troopers. Not
a word was spoken above whisper,
and strict orders were passed down
the line prohibiting the lighting OF a
match or the smoking Of pipe. Can
teens were muffled and swords thrust
securely under saddle flaps. Like a
body of spectres they moved silently
across the snow in the moonlight,
cavalry capes drawn over their heads,
the only sound the crunching OF
horses hoofs breaking through the
crust.
The trail was as distinct as a road,
and the guides pushed ahead as rapid
ly as by daylight, yet with ever in
creasing caution. Suddenly one OF the
Osages signalled for a halt, averring
that he smelled fire. The scouts dis
mounted and crept forward, discover
ing small campfire, deserted but
still smouldering, in a strip of timber.
Careful examination made it certain
that this fire must have been kindled
by Indian boys, herding ponies during
the day, and probably meant that the
village was close at hand. The Usage
guides and the two white scouts again
picked up the trail, the cavalry ad-
vancing slowly some distance behind.
Custer, accompanied by Hamlin, rode
a yard 70 the rear and joined the
scouts, who were cautiously feeling
their way up slight declivity.
The Usage In advance crept through
the snow to the crest of the ridge and
looked carefully down into the valley
below. Instantly his hand went up in
a gesture OF caution and he hurriedly
made his cautious way back to where
Custer sat his horse waiting.
What IS It? What did you see?"
Heap 1niuns down there!"
The General swung down from his
saddle, motioned the Sergeant to fol-
low, and the two men crept to the
crest and looked over The dim moon

of timber rendered everything indis-

by curving gravel walks, was pictured
as a beautiful lawn interpreted with

A practice that is common with
English breeders and which our
farmers must eventually follow is the
hard coupling Of ram and ewes.
The American farmer turns his ram
with the ewes and trusts to luck to
bring him a good crop. He does not
know whether the ram is safely set

Too often the ram abuses himself,
to the detriment Of the latter part Of
the crop. Then, too, the exertion from
running around, as a ram in a bunch
Of ewes usually does, undermiles his

Compare this with your English

all the time except when he is led
out to the ewes. He gets his allowance

Remedy Used by Growers.

During the last five years this dis
ease has spread rapidly, the smut prob
ably being conveyed from field to field
upon farm implements and with ma
nure containing smutted onion refuse,
as discarded onions are usually de-
posted upon manure piles. In some
sections the losses resulting from this
fungus have been so great that the
growers, in some cases, no longer find
the crop profitable.
The severity Of the disease IN diff
ferent localities is variable. It ap-

This disease often attacks plants
that are not sprayed. It is first no

on the leaves or stems of the plants,
occiusing first on the lower and older
leaves; but with favorable weather it
spreads rapidly until the plant is de-
foliated, and the spots on the stems
have coalesced into irregular, blackish
patches. If a piece Of bark with these
spots be examined under high power

This farm had many departments,
such as horse, dairy, fruit, vegetables,

The equipment was of the best. The
buildings we're scarcely to be equaled
in the state. 1t was farm on which

Still, the owner did not particularly

This the keynote Of the management
of such a farm. All the work is ex
perimental; everything goes to salts

There. are hundreds of such farms
being layed every year. There would
be more but for the fact that capable
managers are not to be had.
A splendid opportunity for college
trained men, with scientific knOwl

it requires men with good deal OF
tact to handle dozen foremen who
are also college graduates.
These men will have chance to DO

Scarcely restricted by the lack Of
funds, and not under the necessity Of
