CATTLF BRANDS. JTocovering Lost Horses and Steers in the West. Peouiar Marks by Which Owners Eeo* ogniza Their Stook. it must always be a matter of surpriso to those in the E rst, whose knowledge of a steer is confined to a newspaper article on tho antics of one of them in the city streets, and its capture by a drover or death at the hands of policemen, how the animals wandering over the p'ains are corralled by the owners when the . time has come for them to leave tho prairies for our dinner tables. There is, as there neccs-arily must be, a strong bond of honor between cattle breeders. If a steer or a horso from one herd strays among those of another it feeds with them until the round-up, when it is then returned to its rightful owner. The cat¬ tle companies publish fac-simile* of their cuts in Western papers und in papers de¬ voted to live stock interests in tho East, so that all breeders are mado aware of any new brands and to whom the cattlo belong. A collection of these cuts looks very much like a Chinese alphabet. The name of the owner is never stamped on the animal, but some peculiar and unique design. The Big Horn Cattle Company is situated on the Powder river in Wy¬ oming, and stretches over the best part of Johnson county. Many miles are given to the cattle to feed on, and yet hundreds of them, for one reason or another, and despite the watchful eye of tho cowboy, may wander off to the Cheyenne river and join tho herds of the Mather & Guernsey Cattle Company. If such were the case tho manager of the latter company would notice the simple brand of the stranger, an “x,” with a horizontal line above and another below, and referring to his dictionary on brands would know that it belonged to tho Big Horn Cattlo Company. It would be as well taken care of as his own until it was sent back to Powder river or exchanged at some point in tho West for some of his own lost ones. Tlio brand of the latter company is three figures which might be construed to bo inverted sixes or sevens. Barbed wire fences are built around some ranges, but they are very often the source of serious loss. In storms the cattlo are very often driven against them and hundreds of them are killed. Were it not for this it might be desirable to fence in all the lands and do away with the branding iron. The fact recog¬ nized that honesty is the best policy is alt that is sufficient to bring the cattle home. Some time ago a cowboy got a brilliant idea which costhim his life iu regard to cattlo branding. Ho adver¬ tised his brand extonsively, although his cattlo wero wholly imaginary. IIo hunted up all wandering cattle and shaved down their hides quite artisti¬ cally where they were branded, put his own, symbol on them and then sent them out to live at the expense of the cattle dealers. This novel and money-saving scheme worked so well that in a year ho |gas comparatively wealthy. i>- hi ^*led B cattle got down i mi v Tom a I quite F, Png^Rtr in ti fitaur, is the neam-r .■,.,r on the earth, so far as known.

Most of tho stais, however, are millions of times further away from us than these. Light travels about 186,000 miles in every second of time, and yet with this inconceivably rapid velocity it would take light about twelve years to traverse the space separating us from that star. From the greater portion of the stnrs light would be many centuries in reaching us. -Globe-Democrat. t'hoosittg Oranges. The very sweetest and richest oranges is the black or rusted-coated fruit. Pick out the dingiest oranges iu the box, and you will get tho best. Another way to choose oranges is by weight, The heaviest are tho best, because they have the thinnest skin and more weight of juice. Thick-skinned oranges are apt to be dry; they either weigh less because of having so much skin, or because the poverty of the juice in these particular .speiim-ns.

It is an exhaustive crop, taking from the soil in a crop of two tons [to the aero 180 pounds of nitrogen, 71 pounds of phos¬ phoric acid, and 77 pounds of potash, with a largo quantity of lime. It is sup- posed, and is commonly taught, that tho clover is not hard upon the soil, and gets its nutriment from some obscure source, or, in point of fact, from anywhere but the soil. This, however, is a great mis- take, as tho above figures show, and ns farmers who try to grow clover often find to their sorrow and disappointment, For tire laqd is “clover sick,’’ as it is termed, ju t as it becomes wheat sick, or corn sick, or potato sick, that is, it is too weak and exhausted to mature a crop. Tho clover starts well and the small plants look promising, but in two weeks one is astonished to find the clover has disappeared. It has died of starva¬ tion and for want of food. The only safe way is to get a good crop of clover and plow in a good stubble, then lime the land and grow two or three other crops before returning to clover. Forty bushels of lime per acre will be of g:eat | help in growing clover .—New York Times. flow to Nell- It is estimated that about half of those who sell farm products get an average of 10 per cent, less for their goods than they otherwise would owing to inatten¬ tion in selling. The National Stockman, discussing this subject, says a great many people sell their grain and their live stock and their hay and tlieir wool for a little less than they could if the matter of selling were more thoroughly studied; but tho greater losses come in the handling of what are usually con¬ sidered the lesser farm products. The time of selling is a most important con¬ sideration, and in the products enumerat¬ ed is perhaps as great ns any other; but in these the matter of putting up, ship¬ ping and placing in the hands of tho consumer is of no less con¬ sequence, while in the lesser products these may be said to be almost every¬ thing. In blitter and eggs and poultry and fruit and vegetables, nearly all of which must be sold when ready, a proper observance of all these things means a difference of from one-third to one-half in the prices obtained. Here are some questions which the farmer should an- swer: 1. In what form will my product best please the consumer? 2. How can 1 get it to him in the freshest and best condition? 3. How can I lessen the ex- pense of transportation between us? 4. How can 1 most directly reach him with¬ out the intervention of too many others to shave my profits? 5. How can I best become known myself as a prompt and careful shipper of a choice article of my own production? 6. What does my market most need that I can furnish it, and where can I find the best market ali I have to sell? Kill lli« Weeds, In too many neighborhoods farmers have prepared a bountiful crop of weeds for next year’s seeding.

Farm and Garden Notes* Watch that the lama of insects do not escape you to propogato next season, Remember that the s< lection of seed j s aQ j rll p 0r tant factor in next year’s crop. Rotten corn cobs are said to be a volu- ab[e ferti!izor on any so u that is deficient in po tash, and their value is muc h enhanced by being rotted with other manure. If cabbage heads begin to burst lift them gently so as to loosen the root, or cut and pile them in a cool, dry place, They will keep in this manner for weeks. Two or three cats kept in the barn summer and winter may keep it free from rats,but they will not trouble the rodents much if pampered and petted about the kitchen stove. To protect young fruit tree* in un- fenced lots or along ih ■ roadside*, drive three stakes around tho tree and wind barbed wire arouud them clow though r . - to keep an animal'* teeth array from the tree. Every farmer should prevent the kill- ing of birds on his place. Boys with cheap shot-guns popper away at every- j thing with wings; and when the birds are dead the insects cat up the farmer’s produce, 1 „ Fruit that cannot ___. . be sold ...__„... may bo dried, evaporated, made into ci'lcr for vinegar, or jolly. Iu thus manufactured form it can bo kept ns long as nccos- sary and a sold .u when ___„ a fair price can bo secured. Seeds of perennials often germinate slowly, and they should be sown where they can be seen daily and the soil kept moist, After sowing and watering it is well to givo a mulch of short grass, which will keep the soil from drying out. Sow the , seeds , . fine, « light soil, and , if . r in possible in a place somewhat shaded. A cold frame is best for such seedsi • Where climbing roses do not bloom, other conditions being correct, we should practice root pruning. Befmo laying down the stems in tho fall, dig a trench around the plants about four feet away from the base anti cut off the roots that are met with. If the cause is too luxuriant growth, this operation will check it. When blooming has once commenced that will probable tax tho strength of the plant so as to restrain its excessive vigor. A correspondent has trouble with her roses, which blacken and burst from the bottom of the bud. The trouble with these rose buds was caused by excessive heat, which had the effect of causing the flowers to open rapidly, and at the samo time tho outer petals wero some¬ what dry and stuck together by their own moisture and that of tho dew, mak¬ ing a firm exterior covering that would not part, hence tho buds burst at the bottom. Every living active part of a plant contains a certain amount of water. From many juicy parts 90 per cent, of water can be expelled by drying; many green leaves hold from 75 to 80, while from seeds which we call “dry” it is sometimes possible to drive out 10 per cent. Part of this water is so intimate¬ ly combined with the plant structure that if it is once expelled it cannot be again taken up in such a manner as to restore the plant to its former eondi. tion. Konsrhold Hints. A cup of strong coffee will remove the odor of onions from the breath. Boiling in strong soapsuds will clean up an old lamp-burner and make it ns good as new. Oil-cloths c.an be brightened, after washing, by rubbing hard with a flannel moisteued with kerosene. Windows should be washed with warm water, using soap only where ne¬ cessary, then dried with linen and pol¬ ished with chamois. If mustard be mixed with the white of an egg, instead of water, a plaster maybe made which will draw thorough¬ ly without blistering the most delicate skin. Any gold jewelry that an immersion in water will not injure can be beauti-i fully cleaned by shaking it well in a bottle nearly half full of warm soapsuds, to which a little prepared chalk has been sddeii rinsing in clear, it ^^xct grease has dash hot mBBBm Tp vB^fickly and Immi-iU. i 1 1 . » a .to f a r n- be- Rm protect ABFis-iilvi tSalt in a pint of - I ! ■ 1 , GnArE out of the skins intoand put the skins into another. Then simmer the pulp a little and run it through a colan- der to separate the seeds. Next put the skins and pulp together and they are ready for jugging, or for pies.

Lemon Pudding. —Take the yolks of six eggs well beaten, ’ with a quarter 1 of a pound of c sugar; take a quarter t ot pound of butter melted in as little water aspossible; keep stirring it till cold; then mix all together with the juice of two lemon*, and tho grated peel. Cover the dish with a thin puff paste, pour in the mixture, and bake it for half an hour. Fbesh Vegetables Salted Down.— Sweet corn can be salted in brine for winter use, first boiling and skimming the brine and then immersing the corn in it after it is cold; a flat stone should be used to keep the corn under tho brine, and before it is used it should be fresh- ened to a palatable degree by soaking in freshwater; the brine should contain all the salt it will absorb. Striugbcans, as¬ paragus ‘ and eggplant may be similarly kept in . U brine for winter use. Excellent Giiavy.

(A Hindoo in tho Pull Mall Gazetto.] In „ u eU tcr s telegram of the 21st of October I read: “A rcpctiliou of the J°hur ordeal has occurred in a Brahmin village £ near Ncemucb, in Bengal: the obje t ^ to avoi(1 tho Touk i) ur bur assessment. The two victims calmly bravely as- cended the funeral pyre, and met death. Tho villagers afterwards took their charred heads to Odeypore.” Nucmtlch u a town UU(1 British canton amt in the territory of Gwalior, and is situated at a short distance from tho boundary separating that tract of coun¬ try from tho t tute of Odeypore, in Kaj- p otana. It is just whore one would expect the Johur to take place, if any- where; for it is essentially a Iiajpoot ^ite, like the ««cntice of widows and in- fants. I he , present case is a remarkable 0M; for Jo £ ur) in , mst hiitory , WM never used to avoid assessment, and tho telegram does not say whether the vic¬ tims are male or female. Johur is an awful rite. A whole tribe may become extinct by it, as is seen by several instances recorded in tho history of the Ra poot States. What it signifies is tho burning of womeu to save their honor. The Rajpoot is profoundly jeal¬ ous of the honor of his women, and to prevent their falling into the hands of conquerors, then to be dealt with as was often the ease in the wars with the Ala hometans, he has recourse to the Johur —that is to say, the immolation of every female of the family. And the Rajpoot woman gladly embraces such a refuge from pollution; or even if she were not in fear of being forced away as a captive, she would prefer it to living on as a The loss of a battle or the captuie of a city during the Mahometan invasions was usually the time when this dreadful rile was practised. At the end of the famed siege of Cheetore, the ancient capital of the Ranaof Odeypore, by Ala- uddin, in 1303 the Rajpoot chief, after an arduous day, passed the night in pondering the means by which he might save from the general destruction one at least of his twelve sons Eleven of them fell during the next few days, and when but one sou remained to the R na he proclaimed the Johur. The funeral pyre was lighted within subterranean chambers where the sun’s rays had never entered, and the defenders of Cheetore beheld the queens, and their own wives and daughters to the number of several thousands, pass in procession to the fire. " he beautiful Pudmani, the consort of the Rana, who was believed to be the chief object of attraction for the con¬ quering Tartar, came last in the throng. The door of the caverns closed; the fires raged within; and the honor of the Raj¬ poot women was saved. When after¬ wards Alla-uddin entered the capita! on the death of the Rana and his surviving son, who fell in the conflict, he found it strewn with the bodies of its defenders, while smoke yet issued from the recesses where the women had perished. Again during the second siege of Cheetore by Bahadoor, Shan of Gujrat in 1530, when the bravest had fallen in de¬ fending the breach caused by his artil¬ lery (it was served by Portuguese ad¬ venturers), the Johur wa3 build proclaimed. There w as little time to the pyre. Combustibles were heaped in up ground in hurried¬ and ly-made hollows the magazines were placed around them. The mother of the infaut prince led the procession of willing victims to their doom and 13,000 females were thus im¬ molated at ouce. In the Johur on the oceasiun of Firoz Shah’s attack upon Jessulmir, some years after the event above described, 16,000 females .Johur were destroyed. he was the practised not blood¬ only when the foe was lustful and thirsty Tartar, there are also instances of it in tlie intertribal wars of tho Rajpoots. Numerous inscriptions on stone and on brass, according to the archseologists, record as the first token of victory the captive wives of the foe, and the law of Mann with regard to female captives in war is analogous to these of Moses and Mahomet on the same point.
