OMAHA DAILY BEE : FKIDAY. MAICH ? 24 1682 , A QREA ? GRAZING GROUND , The Profitable Conditions oi Cattle Raising in Montana , With a Wealth of Na tive Cured Grasses. Some of the Oattlo Kings of the Terri tory find What They are Doing as Beef Producers. It is conooodod by every practical and impartial observer that has been over the ground that Montana fur nishes bettor facilities for stock rais ing than any other section of the continent. The native grasses aru moro nutritious , cither green or cur ed , than any other known. Even in the higher altitudes stock may range and fatten thoughout the yean From the time the bunch grass springs up under the early showers , and glowing sun of May and develops to full ma turity in Juno until the early July drouth cures it on the ground , it is a perfect paradise for stock. The val- l.-ys and basins are adapted to grazing at nil seasons , for oven when the winter snows Ho deep upon the ground native cattle follow the exam ple of elk and door and their own inborn instincts to nourish , themselves on the natural product of the soil. A natural protection is also afforded stock against the winter winds by the bluffs that horn in the valleys of the streams and by the earthquake rents of the mountain and the conolcss oE the foot-hills. During the rambles of a representative of The Pioneer Press over the mountains and through the valleys of Montana last autumn ho observed cattle everywhere and uni versally sleek and fat. They scorned to require no care and apparently re ceived but little attention from their owners the brand nlono being the only evidence of ownership observ able. Yet they were comparatively Ui mo and tractable. This con dition of things was particularly mark ed in the mountains. As Into as the 1st of October hundreds of these cattle tlo were tound chewing the end of contentment at an altitude of 0,000 feet above the lovpl of the sea. lligh up in the mountains were beautiful parks and basins covered witli a lux uriant growth of bunch and otlio vroasca , with trails loading to "sal licks" and streams of pure' water from springs and molted snow. In pursui of game which use the trails in com mon with the cattle , ono would encounter counter herds of as fine looking stock as can bo neon on the rich pastures o" Illinois at the oamo' season of th year. year.Tho The stock interests of Montana i but in its infancy , but the following figures , prepared by Major Mcllrath of Miles Oity , for The Nowk Yorli Times , will bo instructive to the road crs of The Pioneer Press : THE LAKOE3T MONTANA ATOOK KAIHKBt are these in the Judith basin and the Sun. river valley , in the oldest sot tied part of the territory. Hero in eastern Montana the industry is of course , now , and the figures rep resenting it would make a small show ing by the side of the statistics of thut older community. I have boon at sonio pains to ascertain for the readers of The Times the extent to which it .has bbon development in the last two years , and the following maybe bo accepted us an accurate and pretty nearly exhaustive summary of tlu > subject. * Beginning with the valleys of the continents of the Yellowstone from east to west , the first herds are found on the Pow der river. About fifteen miles from the mouth of that stream Alfred Meyers & Brother have 3,000 head of beef cattle. They are all fat and in good condition and are being sluilgh torcd weekly , and the moat shipped east from Miles Oity by the the North ern Pacific railroad. They hare not fed at all during the winter. The same firm have also 3,000 head of sheep , which are likewise in excellent condition , and will bo shipped hence shortly to supply eastern tables with excellent mutton. TJio only loss dur ing the past winter was ono sheep. Mayors & Brother last year had the contract for supplying the Fort Keogh garrison with boof. They issued 2,000 head to that post and also shipped 200 car loads cast. About thirty-fivo miles from the mouth of Powder river , J. W. Strovoll has between 400 and fiOO head of stock cattlo. Near the mouth of Mizpah creek , Perkins HUB soil has 2DUO head of line Merino hoop with thoroughbred rams , half Merino and half Ootswold. His losses during the past winter have boon loss than fifteen head. Near the crossing of the Dcadwood road a man named Sclway , formerly of Bcavorhead county , in western Mon tana , has 3,000 head of sheep. Near the mouth of the Little Powder river the St. Joseph's stock companya Mis souri concern , which made its appear auco here last yearhus between 3,000 and 4,000 head of cattlo. From a point sovonty-fivo or 100 miles up the Powder river , all the way to its source in Wyoming , the valley is extensively stocked ; but I havo. had no opportuni ty yet of obtaining the names of the owners nor the extent of their herds the shipments from that region hav ing heretofore boon made over tin Union Pacific railroad , This seaaoi it is believed , however , the trallio will avail itself of the greater facilitU'i offered by the Northern Pacific at till place. jfEiT IK aiooiurnicAL : OJUIHU comes the Touguo riVer valley , As cendiug the stream from its mouth the first herd of noteworthy diinon sions is that of Brandonborg & Vai Oaakon , who lute this yaar handled from 1,200 , to 1,500 head of cattle Mr. Brandonborg also owns a herd o sheep , and iu December and January last ho shipped 0,000 head from Mile's Oity to Chicago by the Northern IV cifio railroad. The next herd is that of the well-known cattlo-king , Coi Cobra , who has nearly 4,000 head hero and about 6,000 head iu western Montana. Messrs. Scott & Hanks , have over 4,000 head of Texas cattle further up the Tongue river , their range reaching clear over the Little Powder river. Then comes Poindoxter & On , who last year handled 1,000 head of cattle , mostly steers , which they ahippod by mil to Chicago. They also had 1,000 Jioad of ehoop , one-half of which were sold for mutton to the Miles City community. At Sprinn Creek , fifty miles up the Ton quo river , Bur- fiend Brothers brought 5,000 sheep in last year , which they have succecdpd in wintering thus far without any loss. Beyond that there are no largo herds until the head waters of the Tongue are approached , which ho in Wyoming , and consequently do hot relate to my theme. On the Yellow stone river there are as yet few herds of any dimensions this side of Big Horn river , though there are num bers of ranches whoso owners keep herds of from seventy-five to one hundred head. On Sweeney creek , thirty miles west of Miles City , a man named Lo Potrio has 400 head of caltlo. Further up J. 0. Guy has about 70 head , and W. B. S. Hlg gins about 100. At Huntley there Is a herd of about 800 head of cattle , and on a creek near that place Messrs , Poindoxtor & On have herd of 0,000 head of cattle. Beyond that point there is nothing noteworthy in the cattle line until the Crow agency is reached , at Stilwatur , whore Tom Kent grazes about 1,200 head of cattle , Thence westward the herds are mostly owned in Bozoman. Nelson Story has 0,000 head of cattle ranging trom Lake Basin , through the valleys of the Sweet Grass , the Big Timber and the Little Timber , over a wide expanse of country. Alfred Meyers & Brother have OjOOO head of stock cattle on Shinlds river , reaching to the Little and Big Timber and the Sweet Grass , Near the Shields river 11 Mr. Grannis has 800 head of cattle ; Mr. Lindley , 1,200 ; S. P. Heron , 700 : Wright Brothers , 1,000 ; William Anderson. 700. The foregoing com prise all the herds of OATTLB ANDHIIBEPIN KABTEUN MONTANA of which I have boon able to procure any data. Doubtless before another year has passed the figures will bo much more formidable. Nearly all that I havo'onumoratcd were brought here during last year. Another in teresting feature of the business which has not heretofore received newspaper recognition is the extent to which the cattl' ) tradp is benefited by the arrival of the railroad. Until within the past few months Montana cattle were driven either to the Mis souri at Bismarck or. to eomo point oi the Union Pacific road by the tedious route across the Wyomitrg wilderness. Since the Northern Pacific road has reached the Yellowstone , cattle have boon trans ported by that route for the supply of eastern markets as follows : Messrs. Ilobson it Sweat , after driving the html nil the way from the Judith basin to Miles City , shipped 1,200 head ; Con Cobra , 1,500 ; Martin Brothers , 2,000 , ; Wright % Fratt,800 , A. Samples , 1,200 , ; Mr. Lindloy , 300 ; Poindoxter & Orr , 1,000 ; Meyers Brothers , 3,000 ; Dm Floury , 1,000 , 0. Clark , 1,500 ; total , 1-1,000 head. This year , when the road has been built further westward , many , and probably all the largo western Montana stock raisers who haveherto- fore sought eastern outlet by Wyoming trail , will avail themselves of the readier facilities offered by a railroad running practically alongside of their ranges. I have dealt at mi oh length upon the material condition of the stock industry in eastern Montana that I shall not bo able to enter into particulars concerning the methods and profits pt the business. These are the details in which investors are chiefly interested. I will state briefly , s the result of n comparison of notes taken from a number of , conversations with leading stockmen of this region , that , in regard to cattle , the AYBKAOE COST OF KAISINO 8TKK11S , exclusive of investment and interest , is about $1 per head yearly , so that a four-year-old steer raised from a calf costs about § 4 , probably a little lees. the native Montana cattle sell hereby by the heard at from 818 to 820 per head , and Texas born cattle at from $14 to 10 per head. The average yearly increase of stock cattle is vari ously estimated , the percentage vary ing in different seasons. It may bo accepted as from 50 to 80 per cent on the female portion of the heard. The average profit in the territory on stock raising is computed at from 20 to 30 per cent per annum on the in vestment. In some exceptional seasons it has boon nearly one-half greater than the last named proportion. Sheep require greater care than cattle , but if successfully handled the profits are considerably larger. The average increase - crease of the herd is about 75 per cent. One prolific herd in the terri tory produced over 100 per cent. , but n extraordinary production of twins was necessary to accomplish that achievement. The production is the measure of the profit in sheep raising as the sale of the wool , which is ar ways in eager demand , defrays the whole expense of maintaining the herd , and sometimes exceeds it to the extent ' of § i or ; 81.26 per head. Sheep , thuro'fore , begin to yield a revenue the first summer after they are driven upon a range , while a herd of young cattle must be maintained at least thrco years before any profit manifests itself , It is evident that Montana stock raising rests upon a solid basis as a legitimate field of en terprise , widely separated from the character of wildcat Hpoculatinn in which many oastora capitalists have trained themselves to rt'gard it. Con- clunivo evidence is furnished of this m the readiness with which the rich banking houses in Helena and Bozeman - man and Virginia City loan money to cattle men of their vicinity. There are numbers of stock raisers in that part of the territory who can obtain from the b.inks anywhere from 850- 000 to $100,000 , at any moment , and onno other security than their own personal obligations. A Good Hpusowlfo. A gooa housewife , when she is giving her house its spring renovating , should bear in that the dear inmates of her house are moro precious than many houses , and that their systems need cleansing by purifying the blood , regulating the stomach and bowels to prevent and euro the diseases nriainu' from spring malaria and miasma , and she must know that there is nothing that will do it so perfectly and surely as Hop Bitters , the purest and beat of medicines.

" Vivian Maturity looked steadily into Ms father's face as lie ppoko thrs * words looked fairly and fully into the face of the keen-eyed old man whoso potted idol ho had been oinco' ' the days of his babyhood those dreary , desolate days when the black pall of his young wife's death had fallen over the life of ho who was now looking nt his only child so fitcrnly , Myrtle Severn had been his early love , and his only one , and as slio lay in her coffin white and silent , never again to speak his name in the en- doanng tones that fell with such tender - dor cadence upon his ear , never again to wind these soft arms around his neck and put up the little rosebud mouth to bo kissed , ho felt that there was naught in all the wide world that could over make existence a pleasure to him again , But after she had been laid away to rent forever planted with loving care in the little dell beyond the car barns , where the willows wave their spread ing branches over the green-clad earth , and the soft breath of summer kisaes into life the modest violet , the white-faced aster , a.d the blushing sunflower and the nurse brought to him the child in giving birth to which the mother had died , a change came over the strong-willed man , and from that moment the great love Aristides Mahaffy had borne his wife was trans ferred to the boy. Time had touched Arislides with refrigerating finger , and from the locks that wore once a sun nily-golden hue tlioro peeped forth now and thou a thread of silver gray a tiny limestone on the pathway of life down which wo all must travel , and ever and anon a twinge of gout in one of his base ball fingers would warn the old man that ho waa Hearing the homestretch , and that ere many sum mers had come and gone he must leave the busy , rushing world forever , and bo only an item in the books of the Probate Court. Thcso thoughts passed rapidly through his mind na lie stood near an open grate in the richly-furnished parlor of his Calumet avenue man sion , the ruddy ulow of the fire leap ing bravely up ( lie roar of his pants turn making u.rHiigo shadows around his Wauketuu { feet. His son his bright-eyed Loy had said that heir ir < ts about l marry Ethelburta O'llourku , a il whom the old man know only as a lu hionablo belle , and of whoso better qtuihtiea ho had never * heard , and in u moment of passionate anger ho had told the boy that if his determination WAH persisted in disin heritance should follow. It was this thrtut that hud o.iimod Vivian to utter the words with Inch this story bo- pins."Yes "Yes , I moan it , " replied the father , "Marry this girl if you choose , but if you do not a penny of mine shall you havo" and leaving these bittorly- cruel words floating around the room ho stalked savagely from the apart ment. * * * * * * Two hears h wo passed.

"I have bad nuws for you , my dar ling , " Vivian says in Bad tones , while a don't-blufi-or-jou-willjjo-eallod look comes over bin face. Bertio ncnthcl her little dimpled hands confidingly in liia , "Toll it tome mo at once , sweet , ' she said "only with you alive and well nothing could bo so v ry dreadful. Vivian looked lit her with a wonderful - dorful grave tenderness in his blue eyes. eyes.Ho waa sizing her up. "My father and I have quarreled , and ho has disinherited mo. I havo" and hero his voice quivered slightly "boon given the g. b. on your ao count. 1 am abog ar , Bertie. " Her soft , dusky eyes grow wider and moro serious. "Yes , " continued the sucker , "lam poor. But I wouldn't care if it wasn't for you , darling. It means that I must give you up , forlcannot ask you to share lifo with mo on a thousand a year. " She looked at him with a rich crim son flush surging into her cheeks. If it had been a afll Vivian would proba bly have gone under , but a flush could never scare him. "Vivian , " said sho. passionately , "do you think I will lot you give mo upl I love you too well for that. A beggar or it Prince , you are the same to momy king , my lo\e ? . " And he folded her to his heart with a great , almost speechless tenderness and joy. "My darling , my precious , " ho whispered.

Harper for April , The fun leveled fit Mr. Oscar Wilde , when not cparso and ungentlemanly , as in the instance of the Rochester students , as reported in the papers , is not undeserved. A man who wishes to show the worth of the modern renaissance is bound , first of all , not to make it or 'himself laughable , Moro eccentricities of dress or conduct - duct are sure to prejudice any good cause. The cheapest distinction ic that which the tailor or barber can furnish. The "mission" of Mr. Wilde to this country 1ms boon quite lost under the accidents and incidents of his career. What kind of a coun try did ho suppose himself to bo about to visit ? Had lie lectured quietly in America , ho would not have bean re lentlessly chaffed from one end of the country to the other. But nobody would then Fiavo ever heard of him , and no one would have qono to hear him , says a cynic of the club. Yet the greatest of Englishmen who have come to us have not found it neces sary to cultivate an external odditv , and Americ.ins who have been chiefly nitod in Eiuopo for peculiarities of costume or any iorm oi extravagance have not most honored the name of their native land , nor incst strongly oommondcd it to respect and admira tion , "My young friends , " said a wise teacher to his pupil' , "If God give you talents remember not to bury them in & napkin.
