RS ————— A FINH BTOOK OOUN(RY The Advantages of Montana For the Buccessful Raising of Horses, Cattle and Sheep. The Banch Grass Pasturage Nutri- tions the Year Around on2® the Vast Plaine. Bome Interesting- Facts and Figures Concerning the Cattle-Raising and Dairy Business. Bossman (Mt.) Fpeo’a’ to 4. Paul Ploaee - ress The traveler across the plans of Northern and Eastern Montana a few years ago would have met almost daily vast herds ot buffalos and antelopés. The prairie was literally black with them summer and winter. They were the wild cattle andsheep of the Indian As long as they were abundant, he thought it easier to jump on a horse and run down a buf- falo cow or to stalk a fat ante- lope than to rear domestic animal Wgneile the red man held possession of the land this state of affaira continued. But his white brothers pressed in from all sides, the buffalo herds diminished, the antelopes became scattered and shy, only the limitless pravies remsined. The thought naturally occurred to the new occu- pants, that a country which had been the home of such numbers of live stock would surely prove favorable to do- mestic herds. Immigrants, coming in wagons from Missouri or Minnesota, had driven a few milch cows along for the supply of milk on the road; but these did nos go fartowards a basis for the establishment of extensive herd People having this business in view went_therefore to Texas, California and Oregon for their stock cattle, and the business grew gradually by the natural inorease of the herds. Beef sold at good prices, and the value of stock cattle w-nt up to $40 and $50 r head. As yet there was only a ::mo demand for the beef, and the time came when the supply exseeded the demand, hast ned by the tempor- ary decrease o' populati n after 1872 Prices droppad u :til good cows might be bought at $12 per head. Tt then first seemed to dawn upon ' our stockmen that as it had been possible to drive stock into the Territory, so it might now prove profitable to drive them out. In 1874 there were about 100,000 cattle in Montana, and that year a fow thousand steers were driv- en to the Union Pacific railroad and shipped to Ohicago. From that day the cattle interest took a new start and has grown into a very important and valuable industry. Before entering into details about the different kinds of stock, let us first examine into the capabilities of Montana in a general way as a stock raising country. Prof. Oyrus Thomas says in his reports in the publications of the United States geological survey: “*Without injustice to any part of the may be truly said of Mon- tana, that it is the best grazing seotion of the Rocky mountain region.” A fow years The New York Tribune sent one of its best oorrespondents, Mr. Z, L. White, to examine the re. sources of the western territories, He sums up his report as follows: Montana is the best grazing country in the world, 1know that thisis & bo'd as- sertion to make, but aft.r seeing wome- thing daring the r‘:-:mmmr of the best cattle ranges of sas, Nebrasks, 0. rado, Dakota, Wyumiog sud Utab, which states and territories furni:h us a lar.e proportion of tha beef consumel in this conntry, and t. lking with stock men, army officers, und others whose acquaintance with the west, is far more exteusive than my own, and whose expericnoe gives to their au‘ullm great weight, T am certain that it is not exaggerati Thers may be portions of South rica, where cattle, sheep and horses may be raised at less ex- nse than in ILontana, but there is cer- ly no place in the United Ntates, where the same grade of aviwaly, ready for warket, mtgo ranchmen lessmoney, while the price which they comwand is greater than in any of the Spanish Amerl- ean republics, and but very little below Moghlm in the lees ’numlo statos sud territories this side of the Mississippi. HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR STATEMENTS might be quoted, and, while they con- tain exaggerations, behind them all is Dasia of solid facts. One of the best evidences of this is that nearly every oapitalist in Montana has made invest- ments in stook, and that in a coun where money loans rapidly at 1 to *large cattle - and very' fow them seem inolined. to sell out. The first xequisite of aatock oagn{(g in and plenty of it. The of the Rocky mountains are the well-known grama (or buffalo) « and bunch grasses, The buffalo grass is a short, une, curly grass, rarely ex- ceeding four or five inches in length, but extremely nutritious, This grows on very dry soils, and is specially adapted to sheep, but has not in Mon- tana the same importance asin the southern territories. It is the bunch ass on which o ttle feed and atten on 8 thousand hills. Under this name are embraced several distinot species of grasses: but they have all same characteristics. l{ grows in more or less scatiered tufts, and to a height of one to three f.ut, according to the richness and moistwie of the soil, On the driest, gravelly plains there are lugo, bare spaces butween each “bunch,” while in the high mountain parks I have fouud iv grow- ing close and tall as timothy n an eastern weadow, It is often ocut for hay on the table lands near the moun- hlnwclding a8 much as one and one-| tons per acre, It does not grow in the low, alluvial bottoms, but the benches, the table lands, the foot- hi'ls, the very mountains themselves, where not frost-clad or naked rock, are covered with this admirable grase, It is » beautiful sight in spring to see vast plains and hills assume an emerald hue, as the new grass spriags up and gradually climbs the mountain slopes, following closely in e of the nielting snow, until them to the summits, In reaches its full growth, and as and dryness of thdn air assumes gra; u'-:‘:.nd by the middle or the appearance of a But now the peou- the it ol Juue ually | the jung! moisture would soon have its maiing strength beaten and bleached out by the rain, the wind, and the/ sunshine The mountain bunch gras dried standing on the prairie, retai all its nourishing properties and fully as good feed as in its green stat As Prof. R. W, Raymond says *‘to pasture a horse on bunch gmss is like giving him plenty of good hay with regular and liberal feeds of grain.” Towards spring it loses some of ita strength, but when slock can gzet plenty of this dry and apparently worthless grass to eat, they will keep 10 good conditi Il winter without other food and without shelter. This is the IMMESSE ADVANTAGR MONTANA HAS in raising stock, making is possible to follow this pursuit without expensive winter feeding, wherever the climate conditions are such that the snow does not fall very deep or lie long at the time. The snow fall is very varisble in diffsrent winters and different lo- calities, In some of the mountain valieys, the best grain sections, it falls usually deep and covers the ground all winter; in others snow su ntly doep for sleighing is almost unknown. Oa the plaios and in the more open country the fall is ordinarily light, and even when a heavy fall occurs it remains on the ground but a few days. A warm wind from the Pacifis, the so called Chinook, carries it off or a high wind, even if cold, b'ows it into the hollows and gulches, leaving the ridges and points bare. Once ina whils a general snow occurs, covering the whole face of the country toa dasth of from six to eighteen inche: an ying on the ground sever: weeks, undisturbed by wind. Then the time for the stockman to ‘‘rustle.” If his cattle are in good condition they will stand short commons a long time; but if they are already weakened by snow weather and the range has been closely grazed, his losses are apt to be heavy. If he has a fresh range near by to which he can drive herd, he will usually escape severe loss, as the oattle can grazs through a consider- able depth of snow as long as this re- mains loose. But if a thaw comes, followed by a hard freeze, while the snow still lies deep, and a hard crust forms on the top, then the cattle can neither travel nor feed and faré hard if it continues long. Such cases are, however, extremely rare. In April and May the falls of rain and wet snow are general and heavy, and these the stockman hails with delight as they insure a good growth of grass. It is only within the last few years that the plains have been open to the stockgrower. Ho has followed, as the Iudian has been pushed back. Now all of Montana, except the Indian reservations, is practically open for settlement, A few herds have pushed a8 far east as the Mussleshell, but nearly one-half of Montana is yet virtually unoccupied. To this vast section many eastern capitalists are going as well as the stock-growers from the crowded ranges of Wyom- ing.

Mola Buksh belonged to the Mahar- aja Benares, and was lent by him one January to a small shooting party in South Mirzapur, cousisting of three gentlemen, two of whom had with them their wives and children. He was without tusks, of great size, and of what amateurs call beautiful points, stanch with tigers, tramed and tracta- ble, but credited from the first known of him with an uncertain temper, On the 16th of the month he toorpm in an expedition into the jungle, pelted a wounded tiger in a ravine with clods till the brute charged and fastened on his ear, then got his foe between his legs and kicked him from hindfoot to forefoot and back again till he was done for, On the 10th he carried some of the party, including two ladies, for an outing, nothing unusual boln&ohumbll in his manner, exocept & rather exocited rivalry with a horse which was cantering by his side. On arriving at camp he was fed as usual by female s, and his aflectation humored of having a biecuit put ac- tually into his mouth. He had, how- ver, about him rather a menagerie smell, for which a bathe in the neigh- boring river was prescribed. In per- fect peace of mind all retired to rest. But at midnight came the ery, ‘‘Mola Buksh has killed his mahout!” This was true, but it was generally thought that the act was accidental, The par- oxyams had come on him about 2 4, ®. He at once tore himself loose and went in search of bis second attend- ant. This man was a purloiner of grain, tentive and cruel, and greatly detested by the animal, The manout and his deputy were sleepin, side by side under a tree, shroude in their coverlets as the man- ner of the country is, MOLA KNELT ON HIS ENEMY and killed him and perhaps in attempt- ing to rise stepped on to the mahout, who was a drunkard and not likely to b3 easily awakened or to think of rolling aside. At any rate, some hours afterward, when the animal re- turned and saw the bodies he only looked down at that of the mahout, but seized the other and tossed it hither and thither, All was alarm, naturally, in the camp, Cots were slung up in trees—one fortunately a banian—and the ladies and children put in comparative safety, Morning was anxiously looked for. When it came, however, the coast was clear, Mola Buksh was passing his time in wrecking a village at some little dis. tance, unroofing the houses and plun- dering the sweetmeats and grain, The other elei)elunu had been driven iato ; the men were armed and vigilant, the servants on the watch, As no alarm was given, a forced march was determined on and off the whole pnrti set for an en ounwmhn on. This was reached in safety, but the elephant little re- | #a8 noon in ) rauit, the camels, and Yl“ on '.'flnp"r‘td, flung to and left the burdens dewerted by the flying coolies, eaught up two unhappy lingerers and killed them both and pounded away over the hill stones wi&omndnefi in his head and and unnatural activity of oyer-heated excitement in his limbs., The various friends were seated on irunks watch- ing their growing encampment, when the shout arose ‘“Mola is coming!” And sure enough, headlong down a steep pitch, swung into view the reck- less mammoth, as if the fiends were close behind hi That was a mo ment indeed. Wives, ayahs and chil- dren were hurried to trees scarcely of adequate height, and the msn and the servanta took their places for defer.ca beside them. But one—I shall cer- tainly name him--Wigram M'mo{, a magistrate of Mirzapur, advanced on the little plain between the tents alone to MEET THE APPROACHING BRUTE, He received Mola Buksh at fifty yards with his first barrel, and the ball struck the centrs of the forehead. This stopped him, and a second made him turn again toward the hill. He was pursued on horseback, and though he doubled round and again approach- ts, he remembered his les- ndeed, though he dogged the hurried marches of the party, ap- pearing suddenly and causing great alarm, for the next day or two he seemed to have a dread of coming quite clote. The distances he travel- ed were soarcely credible; by light and in the dark it was one exoited and destructive raid, without exhaustion and without repose. He tore off roofs, he tore up wheat, he devoured or ecattered the contents of shops. The villagers —men and women, children nd old people— fled before him. He invaded two other sporting camps be- nides the one he was firat attached to, tossing the equipments about, mad- dening the horses and at times sur- prising some unfortunate attendant. He harassed the Maharaja himself on the line of march, pushing over his camels and breaking hisfurniture, and forced the prince to save himself by sheer galloping to & country palace. One ng his last feats was this Ranee of high birth was ona pilgrim- age to Bonares. She was en- camped in @& grove. Red and white striped tents were enclosed by the canvas walls; in the innermost was sho herself, The tag-rag entourage of native rank encircled her. A seedy sepoy or two, with shakoes over their tied up heads and old unloaded flint muskets, stood about, There wis a rush of cattle and peasants down the road, dust in clouds, and a ory of “‘the elephant!” Tke Ranee's currish hire- ling left her. Mola Buksh leveled all opposing obstacles and stood before the miserable princess herself. The slave girls had hidden themselves. The old lady fled to her palankeen. The mad animal tore her from it and put her to death, He feasted ona heap of cakes which had been prepared for the shrines of the holy city. A Brahmin crept in to see what the fate of his mistress had been Mola seized him and destoyed him, and flung him on the road, where his body was seen Murray “Toon Works, Burlington lowa.
