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. The Georgia Bloodhound. Thc Georgia bloodhound does not quarry his game, unless it is a rabbit—a small rabit. He is neither fierce nor powerful. A boy can hold a pack off with a cornstalk But for trailing a fu¬ gitive—for hugging him close as his shadow—or for flying along his track when even the grass has forgotten its im¬ press, and the wind has powdered it over with dust, he Is as relentless as death itself .—Atlanta Constitution.

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 re( ^ according to the quantity of oxide of iron that t)iev cont ain. in fact, oxide of itcm produces these colors in all kinds 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 a ,. ifl A san(1 Hoil when devoid of lime, iron, and alumina and humus is Imr- ren for it is th( . n pure sa nd. which is not y ng but sma n s ji,. x and quartz stone, 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. lion sell old (lint* Wash silk stockings in warm borax water, but never iron them.

All their foods were highly spiced, and sauces were endless in their variety, three or four kinds being served up with each dish, In these sauces, pepper, mace, cinnamon, clox'es, ginger, garlic, saffron and pimento contented for the mastery, and the more decided the flavor the better the cook.

It was uot thought impolite, even as late its the six¬ teenth century, for a guest to ask his host what wines he intended to provide, so that he might make his calculations as to what he would take before he confined himself to the particular tipple which should place him under the table: nor was it thought impolite in the middle of a banquet to undo the girdle in order to make more room for such tempting tit- bits as pike-tails, barbels’ heads, skin of roast goose, and swan tongues, The feast usually commenced at eleven o’clock in the forenoon, and the longer the host could keep the guests at the table the better was he thought of; but in the. mat- tf ‘>' (l{ drinking he was expected tin en- courage potation by providing I wet than- alian song, or at least by being himself the first to become hors du combat.
