WILD HORSES.
Thousands of them Roaming
the Plains of Montana.
Neglected Animals that Grow Wild and
Become a Terror to Breeders,
Horse raising is fast becoming of great
importance in this Territory, says a Fort
Keogh (Montana) correspondent. Vast
ranges are now devoted to their breeding
exclusively. The horses rtin wild in great
he.rds, winter and summer, just ns do the
cattle. But for these horse ranches the
stock men would find great difficulty to
control their cattle. The horses are
larger and much better than the Texan
ponies. They arc usually bred from
Indian pony mares and Kentucky stal-
lions. Jlost of the horse ranges are in
the mountains or foothills. Mining ex-
citemcnts and other causes often cause
herders to neglect their horses and they
become wild. Their superior intellect to
other animals when partly bred to good
stock, their faculties of hearing, seeing
and smelling, coupled with their fleet-
ness and courage and their ability to
stand days and weeks of running, make
them the most difficult to capture.
Confining themselves almost entirely to
the inaccessible mountains, only coming
down to water once a day, makes it al¬
most impossible to follow, much less
capture them, and when a band or a por-
tion of a band goes wild it is rarely in
these days that the owner ever tries to
recapture them, knowing full well
that it nearly takes horse for horse
in the business, and the wild
horse once captured has been so run
down and abused to bring him into
subjection that they are hardly worth
the success.
With the wild horses a stallion is at
the head, and is the leader of every herd,
having such full control over them that
no band of cowboys are able to drive a
Rand of horses so fast or well as a stai-
lion can. All in the baud are so thor¬
oughly afraid of him they keep in a
bunch, and their speed is gauged by his
own, he running behind with his head
low, scarcely above the ground, He
advances quickly on the hindmost «ne9,
giving them a sharp bite on the rump,
thereby giving them to understand they
must keep up. Should one turn out he
follows him, much after the fashion of
the shepherd dog, and runs him back.
Until his band are out of sight in the
mountains he keeps this up. Here they
seem to understand that he cannot follow
them all, and they scatter in all direc¬
tions. in ravines, canyons and inaccessi¬
ble places, so that when the rider arrives
at the places he last saw them he is mor¬
tified to find his own horse almost ex¬
hausted and his herd so scattered that he
gives up the chase in disgust. The usual
idea is that a very fleet horse, such an
one as is usually used by the hero in a
novel, carries his master up to a wild
horse sufficiently close to lasso him.
This is erroneous, for no horse on earth
can carry a rider and saddle sufficiently
heavy to stand the strain of a lasso fast
enough on the rough ground of the moun¬
tains to catch a wild horse in good health,
and I doubt very much their ability to do
it on a smooth plain.
It is surprising how easily and thor¬
oughly domestic horses go wild under
the influence of these wild stallions.
Many is the emigrant or horse raiser who
has gone to bed at night full of confi¬
dence, and often pride, at the condition
and numbers of his stock, only to wake
in the morning to find nothing left but
the one horse on the picket rope and the
trail of their fleeing animals, driven or
coaxed away by these wild horses—gone
and forever. I recall to mind now an
acquaintance of mine in Nevada, one
Joseph Gilbert, who lived in Reese River,
in Louder county, who took a pride in
the quality of his horses. His herd num¬
bered about five hundred head and was
generally considered to be the best in
that section. Joe was in fine cireum-
stances and bore the reputation of being
well off and an excellent man; but some-
how a band of wild horses began to prey
upon his herd, finally securing to them-
selves a beautiful stallion recently pur¬
chased by Joe at an expense of $1,000.
After his capture Joe’s herd was ol
short duration, as, with the assistance of
this stallion, they nearly or all went wild,
and though rewards of $5 and afterward
$10 per head were offered for the horses
in any corral, with an additional $500
for the stallioD, I never heard of more
than fifteen or twenty horses being re-
turned. Some Mexicans hearing of it
came to capture them with twenty men
and forty or fifty horses, but after racing
for them until their own horses had given
out they only succeeded in getting the
fifteen or twenty above mentioned, re¬
solving to return and try them on the
Texas plan, with a sloped corral, with
wings two miles long. The result was
Mr. Gilbert was ruined. Many other
cases of the kind have happened.

tVcanlni Calves.
A correspondent of the National Stock¬
man, upon the question of feeding calves,
remarks: “I prefer weaning when two
weeks old, while some think it best to
wean at the early age of one day. By
the time the calf is two weeks old it has
commenced to thrive, has put on some
fl^h, and is very much more able to stand
(he strain on its young system. I have
had the best success learning them to
drink by u t giving them anything the
first regular time of feeding. By the sec-
ond their appetites are sharpened and
their thirst increased, so that they will
drink out of the bucket without giving
them the finger. It is a b(Ul habit to
learn them to drink by placing the finger
in the mouth, and always gives the one
trouble who practices it. The calf should
be penned in a stable where the cow can
neither see nor hear it. Then it will soon
become resigned in its new quarters and
thrive from the very start.”
Onion*.
Aside from the potato crop the onion
crop is the most important vegetable
crop grown, and under proper culture is
an exceedingly profitable crop. They
yield from 300 to 500 bushels per acre,
according to the nature of the soil and
culture, and rarely sell for less than 30
cents per bushel, while they not unfre-
quently are worth as high one dollar,
The soil must be rich and thoroughly
an( l deeply pulverized. A very rich,
loamy soil is the best. Manure very
heavily with well rotted manure. The
soil cannot be made too rich. It is use¬
less, to try to grow onion3 on a poor soil
or i n a shiftless manner. A lew days,
neglect when the weeds are growing rap¬
idly, or a week's delay in sowing after
the ground is in a suitable condition in
the spring, will often ruin the crop,
There is no crop in which thorough culture
will bring larger returns. A top dressing
of wood ashes applied after the second
weeding will be found to greatly im-
prove the crop,
Keeping Geese.
Geese are profitable or unprofitable ac¬
cording to the manner in which they are
kept. If given the use of a large pond
on which they can enjoy themselves, and
dive down in search of minnows and tad¬
poles, they can supply themselve.-. with
all the animal food they require. They
should also have plenty of grass. When
the geese are kept on abandoned fields,
and have access to ponds, they nre profi¬
table; but if they are to be fed alto¬
gether, they will be kept at a Loss. They
often do damage to pastures, and destroy
and waste much that they should not dis¬
turb. The best breeds arc the Toulouse
and Embden, the latter being entirely
white in color, thu3 rendering their
feathers more valuable. A cross of th e
Toulouse gander on the Embden goose
makes the ■ largest produce for market.
A goose will lay from twenty to forty
eggs, but seldom hatches more than one
brood. The goslings should not be al-
lowed near the water until fully feath-
ered, as dampness is injurious to them,
; the down being no protection. They
should be fed for the first six or eight
weeks, on a mixed diet, and may then
be left to their parents altogether. Old
j geese make the best breeders, but only
the young ones are marketed. Eggs from
j geese under two years old do uot hatch
! well.
Improving Sandy Soil*.
Sandy ) soils contain at least eighty per
ccnt 0 <,nicious sand, They are ex¬
tremely porous and, of course, easily
j ppnneable by air, water, and the roots of
plunts< pile color in such soils when not
white varies from yellow to brown and

of iron that t)iev cont ain. in fact, oxide

of soils, excepting the chalks aud black
I molds. A red sandy soil is likely to be
fertilc from thc f act that oxide of iron
has the power of retaining phosphoric

There, are, however, some sand soils con¬
sisting of over ninety-four per cent, silex
with only two per cent, of clay and one
each of humus, phosphoric acid and linm
and yet these deficient soils are very pro¬
ductive when sown with legumes like
clover and lucern. Little or no nitrogen
exists in such soils, and yet the legumes
j that grow there abound in nitrogen. This
| f ac t has been adduced as evidence in fa-
vor of the theory that plants derive much
of their nitrogen in some way direct from
the atmosphere. A barren sand can be
made fertile by the application to it of
limed muck, clay, and marl, and after¬
ward the fertility could be kept up for a
long time by green manuring.
The Wooit-Piie.
It is a sign of unthrift, of household
discomfort, of bad management general
ly, to have thc wood-shed empty. It
means plenty of fault-finding and un¬
necessary worry and hard work in the
summer time when cheerfulness and
smooth management are more to be desir¬
ed than at any other time. Then be sure
and fill up the wood-shed if you would
have peace and good-will reigning around
your hearth-stone when the days of sow¬
ing and planting and harvesting have
come. A .d the shed should not only be
filled with wood, but with the right kind
of wood. It will only add to the un¬
pleasantness of the situation if ’there is
nothing but an accumulation of groat,
unwieldy, unsplitable knarls that the
housewife can hardly lift, much less use
in thc stove. Such unusable material
is only a mockery and a source of exas¬
peration. Neither is there much advan¬
tage gained in storing up wood that is
only half prepared for use. Every farm¬
er, says the Ploughman ,should look ahead
at least ouo year to setqro wood iu th#
best condition to burn; that which is te
be used next winter • should , , be prepared
th,s winter. If it was cut, as it shoulu
he flevotul to preparing it K r trie stove.
To have wood in the best condition to
burn, it should be sawed and split before
the first of ifa March- rtiyinK then it will have the
«l„d. of ,„l,
spring, and, if properly piled up, will be
in good condition to house before warm
weather commences. Those who have
been accustomed to leave their wood in
four-feet lengths until the warm summer
rains begin to conic, lose a considerable
portion of the heating qualities of the
wood. Birch, hemlock, pine and maple
all require to Ik: cut in short lengths anil
split in short pieces to get the best re-
suits, and the work .should be done early
enough in the season to get it well dried
before the warm weather.
Hatch Your Chick* Karls'.
The advantages of hatching chicks early
cannot be overestimated. Chicks that
are hatched late bring late prices, and
chicks that come out of the shell this
month, and get in market as broilers,
bring as high prices as grown fowls.
The objections urged against early
chicks arc that they give too much trouble,
and those hatched late have the privelege
of grass runs, and take partial care of
themselves. And so they do. I hey are
raised much more easily than those
hatched this month, but our readers
should remember that it is uot the chicks
that bring the best prices, but the
trouble. Whenever chicks are raised
without effort tho cost is, of course, a
small item, but the time is then occupied
by hundreds who also prefer to perform
as little labor as possible, and the eonse-
quence is that ehicks are thrust on the
market by thousands, only to depress the
market, and cause the oft-repeated as¬
sertion that poultry does not pay. But
early chicks do pay, however, but they
pay only for that which is expended and
bestowed upon them by the attendant-
It is claimed, again, that labor is labor,
and may as well be expended in one di-
reetion as another, without devoting it to
early chicks. That is true, but unem¬
ployed labor is a waste, anti if, in win¬
ter, a large number of ehicks can be
grown for market, there will be a saving
of wasted labor, and the wages will be
trebled on account of the better prices
demanded for labor in that shape.
Early chicks are often worth, in April,
as much as eighty cents a pound, and
they are sold when about one-pound-and
a-quarter in weight. It requires no
urcs to show that aside from the rare the
actual cost of food is a small item, j^ 0
doubt, a large number or eggs may be
required for the purpose of hatching a
fair percentage of chicks, but this item
of loss may also be added without fear of
diminishing the proportion of profit to be
procured when the chicks are marketed,
Early chicks are always salable, and it
costs more to raise chicks to the weight
of two pounds at twenty-five cents a
pound in price than it does to raise one
to a pound, and with double the market
price. The real difference, as is plainly
apparent, is four times as much as the
other.— Rural llome.
