Cattle liaising In Wyoming.
' A eorrenpon)ent of a Chicago paper,
writing from Cheyenne, Vyomlng,glves
an interesting statement of thecoBtond
profit of Block raising In Hint Territory.
He saye that a liortl of 1,000 Texas cows
and 40 short horn 111118 cost, at a liberal
estimate, $15,000. in five years the liatr
ural Increase gives 6000 head of cattle,
old and young, worth not less than $70,
0(0. Five men, lncldlng the foreman of
the ranch, are sufficient to take care of
4,000 cattle. A good foreman can com.
tnand $75 per month. An ordinary
herder receives $35 per month. The
oet of necessary ranch buildings Is
triflng. The total expense of a herd of
the number above mentioned for five
years may be placed at $35,000, this in
eluding a contingent loss of five per cent,
of the cattle, leaving a oet profit of $10,
000 on the $15,0C0 invested five years be
fore. The cattle buslneos in Wyoming
is very large and rapidly increasing. At
the commencement of IS77 there were
in the Territory 277,000 head, of an av
erage value of $15 per head, making to
tal value of over $4,000,000. From varl
ous points in Wyoming there were ship
ped in 1878 some four thousand car loads
of cattle, worth in Chicago $3,000,000.
During 1870 a considerable advance was
made in the number shipped, the larger
part of the shipping being done in the
last quarter of the year.
How to Make Hens Lay.
A correspondent informs us that while
on a visit in the fall to a friend, he was
c surprised to Bee the number of eggs he
dally obtained. He had but sixteen hens
and the product per day averaged thir
teen eggs. He had been in the habit of
giving on every alternate day a tea
spoonful and a quarter of cayenne pep
per mixed with soft food, and took care
that each hen obtained her share. The
experiment of omitting the pepper was
tried, when it was found that the num
ber of eggs were reduced each trial from
five to six dally. Our correspondent be
licves that the moderate use of this
stimulant not only increases the number
of eggs, but effectually wards off diseases
to which chickens are subject.
Measuring the Height of a Tree.
When a tree stands so that the length
of its shadow can be measured, its height
can be readily ascertained as follows:
Set a stick upright let it be perpendlc
ular by the plumb-Hue. Measure the
length of the shadow of the stick. As
the length of its shadow Is to the height
of the stick, so is the length of the
shadow of the tree to its height. For In
stance : If the stick is four feet above
the ground, and its shadow is six feet in
length, and the shadow of the tree is
ninety feet, its height will be sixty feet
(0: 4: : 80 : 60). In other words, multi
ply the length of the shadow of the tree
by the height of the stick, and divide by
the length of the shadow of the stick.
To Get Rid of Mould In Cellars.
A correspondent recently asked us for
a simple and effectual remedy for fungus
and mould in cellars. A German agri
cultural journal gives the following :
"Put some roll-brimstone into a pan
and set fire to it ; close the doors, mak
ing the cellar as nearly alr-tlght as pos
sible, for two or three hours, when the
fungi will be destroyed and the mould
dried up. Repeat this simple and inex
pensive operation' every two or three
months, and you will have your cellar
free from all parasitical growth. Car
bolic acid in proportion of 4 ounces to
to the bucketful of whitewash will also
prevent mould."
As there Is much controversy in
the agricultural papers at present as to
how to make and save manure, I will
give my plan in as few words as possi
ble. First, I keep my horses and cows
In the same stable; I bed my horses
with good wheat or oats straw ; and
when they have stood on It one night, I
clean all the straw and manure out of
the stall and put in under the cows. By
doing this I save straw and it makes
the manure finer. The horse manure l
always dry, and by putting It under the
cows It absorbs all the urine, and it also
keeps the horse manure from burning
when thrown in a heap. When the
manure gets well warmed in a heap, I
take a long handled manure fork and
turn it over, and by that time it is well
mixed and ready for the land. If any of
your correspondents have any better
way, let us bear from them. Exchaitye.

Hop Bitters, which are advertised In
our columns, are a sure cure for ague,
biliousness and kidney complaints.
Those who use them say they cannot be
too highly recommended. Those anllof

become thereby enthusiastic In the praise
of their curative qualities. Portland
