AMONG THE SIBERIAN NOMADS.
A Nation of Shi-pliertls and Cattle ItroeJ-

I their brethren in tho T.lains. Verv few
I own as many as 2.000 horses or 3.000
sheep. Also they have fewer camels;
but, on l ho other hand. iosses.s an excel
lent breed of oxen for traversing the
mountains. Their cows are lar-'c-. but do
not yield much milk. Yaks are kept hv
them instead. Their cattle breeding
claims far loss labor than airrieultuiv. but
it is exposed to great risks. For the sup
port of a nomad family for a year are
required eleven head of large and ten of
small cattle, and to provide hay for the
winter consumption even of this number
exceeds the working power of ono house
hold.
I was much interested to son some of
the Kirghcse on tho marc h. Their wan
derings are thus conducted. When the
pasture in a iieighliorhixxl is eaten, one?
or two of tho young men aro sent to
select a spot for another encampment,
nnd to clean out the wells. This done.
the women pack tho tents and the men
io! m tne came in ci roves, the camp is
ready and starts before dawn, tho good
women of the family riding in front. I
met one old lady in this honorable riosi-
tion, mounted astride a bullock and look
ing anything but graceful. After her
came the otiier women, variouslv
mounted on the top of carpets, teakettles,
toJltd' etc-' tho whole being made to
wear, as far as possible, a festive asiiect.
The length of a stage is from thirteen to
suventeen miles, and tho aul traverses
about twenty-live miles in twenty-four
hours.
On arriving at the place of encamp
ment it is the office of the wife to put up
the tent. I chanced to see a woman be-
in to do so, and would not stir from the
spot till I had witnessed the whole opera-
