Cattle Ranches.
We have just received from the chief
of the Bureau of Statistics in Washing
ton a report in regard to the range and
ranch cattle business of the United
States. The importance of this branch
of American industry is emphasized by
figures so large that they almost make
one's head swim.
The first statement in the report is
that the cattle ranch area embraces
about 1,365,500 square milesand , there
fore constitutes nearly forty-four per
cent , of the total area of the United
States. Our readers can better under
stand its extent when we say that it is
equal to Great Britain and Ireland ,
France , Germany , Denmark , Holland ,
Belgium , Austria , Hungary , Italy , Spain
and Portugal and one-fifth of llussia in
Europe.
All this territory is devoted to beef.
We feed the world. The roast beef of
Old England even comes from the great
West. 3/ore than 7,500.000 cattle
graze on the green plains cast of the
Kocky Mountains , and their value reach
es the snug little sum of about $200-
000,000. There is hardly a country on
the globe to which these cattle are not
sent , either on the hoof or nicely pack
ed in cans or laid on ice. The steaks ,
tho beef soup , the hash of all creation
are provided by the picturesque and ir
repressible cowboyswho roam over the
prairies.
It is rather a significant fact , how
ever , that nearly 21,000,000 acres of
this grazing land , together with the
herds thereon , are owned by English
syndicates and English noblemen N.
Y. Herald.
WE have heretofore supposed that
America was the place where human cu
riosities brought the largest price. Eng
lishmen , however , are not a whit behind
us in thirst for novelty. One , Sarah
Henley , a comely spinster , but terribly
disappointed in love , leaped a distance
of two hundred and thirty feetfrom
Clifton suspension bridge into the Avon.
Strange to relate , she was not fatally
injured. The tide was down , the mud
was as soft as a feather bed , and sho
was simply driven into it up to her neck ,
[ f anything would cure a woman of love
sickness such a bath after such a dive
might well do it. While she lay in the
hospital recovering from the shock , one
bold man gave the official a sovereign to
persuade the girl to marry him. and a
local showman offered her a round sum
to allow him to exhibit her around the
country as the dashing maiden of uncer
tain years who could not endure to be
crossed in love. Whether she has thus
turned her blighted affections into coin
has not yet transpired. New York-
Herald.
AN 84foot wheel will raise 3,000 gal
lons of water daily a distance of twenty-
five feet. Its first cost , including a pump
and a plain tower , is about $150. A 10
foot wheel will raise about 9,000 gal
lons of water a day a like distance , and
cost about$1SO , including the apparatus
above mentioned. A 12 foot wheel will
raise 16,000 gallons of water perday the
above distance , and cost with the same
appurtenances $210 ; so up from 14 to
16.18 to 20 feet diameter of wheel un
til we reach a 25 foot wheel , which costs
about $1,200 and will raise 100,000 gal
lons of water the specified distance.

A daily stage will start from Atwood
to MeCook on the 15th. Fine coaches
will be put on the road and the horses
will be the best that can be procured.
In fact it is intended to be made the
finest equipped stage line ever seen in
northwest of Kansas , and the trip across
the country will be mode in the shortest
possible time. The stage will stop for
dinner at Mrs. Moore's , 20 miles from
Atwood and 25 miles west of MeCook ,
where a first class meal is served for 25c.
The fare for the round trip will be $4.
Express of all kinds will be carried , but
no freight. Atwood Democrat.
E. D. Webster , of Omaha , brought 6
fine stallions here lastweekand , will put
in about two hundred mares. Mr. Web
ster intends starting a horse ranch near
here.
