WOOL GROWER HAS TROUBLES OF HIS OWN Deals with Crews, Lambing and Shearing Herders Frelghters, Wool Buyers and Mutton Mare and kets and Fights Cattlemen. ts of Great Falls and Bil- opened this year on July 6 in operation until the last ust. In that time 000 were sold at Great Falls, proved iteel? the greatest ket of the world, with Billings a md. This season, however, al- s too early for offcial irns made in detail, it is estimated that marketed a trifle more than 10,000,- nds of wool. As high as 1i% cents paid for the clean long staple * the average price obtained in great markets was 1613 cents other marketing centers, less but whose markets contributed to the impressive total output Montana of 37,600,000 pounds. In recent years Montana has become the leading wool state of the union, producing 29,796,089 pounds in 1%1, and more than 83,000,000 pounds in 1%2. The season just closed maintains the rapld pace of increase, with nearly 12 per cent better showing than last year. Among the minor markets, with new records for this season, were Miles City, 4,000,000 pounds: Dillon, 1,600,000 pounds, and Bigtimber, 1,250,000 pounds, Fergus county, second among the sheep counties of Mon- tana, has been opened as a wool market by the operation of the Lewliston railroad. and the industry is,“on the jump as never before,” to use the words of the wool men The average price received this season Is the highest in four years and will bring 1to the state $,000,000, in round numbers. e Billlngs wool market had a longer sesslon than its rival at Great Falls, be- e of the late arrival of the wool from the northern growers, and for this reason the returns were not In quite as early, Profit and Loss. As there is no scouring plant in the state, the sheepmen last year paid freight to Boston and Philadelphia on over 25,000,000 pounds of dirt and grease, and several mil- lon pounds more this season, the shrinkage In scouring having been 6 per cent, and the scoured wool selling at 47 cents per pound. Investors will recognize in these figures the saving that might be made in the establishment of a scouring plant on the Missouri river, at Great Falls, and of ¢he profits accruing from such an invest- ment. 4 Sheep raising in Montana presents many interesting phases, the wool grower hav- ing to deal with lambing crews and shear- ing crews, herders and freighters, wool buyers and mutton markets, and often to battle with cattlemen for possession of the rauge. The herder must not be too ener- getic lest ho wear the sheep out with con- tnued running, or he himself go crazy through enforced idleness. He must be up with the sun and soon release his restless flocks from their wolf-proof pens. Then with his dogs he must take his 2,600 or 3,000 sheep to fresh ranges, feeding lelsurely as they go. He must know the polsonous weeds and carefully awold them, as the sheep do not discriminate, and the care- less herder may suddenly seo his sheep falling on all sides and lose several hun- dred before he is able to extricate them from a polsonous tract. During the heat of the day all rest, each animal hanging his head In the shade of another, and the herder usually carrying an umbrella and mosquito netting for his own protection, It 1s then that the more energetic herders busy themselves by gathering the loose stones and erecting monuments that are seen on high places throughout the west and southwest, and excite the curlosity of strangers In the land. In the summer time the sheep are herded out into the foothills, perhaps fifteen or twenty miles from the home ranch. the range and pastures near by being saved for winter's use and for lambing and shearing time. In case of severe storms in winter the herder has not far to go And can soon comfortably shelter his flocks and feed them from his stacks of wild hay and alfalfa. If caught out by late storms, as that of May last, when occurred the heaviest snowfall ever recorded in Mon- tana, there = no telling what the result may be.

The sheep are driven through a runway and penned, five at a time, back of each shearer The shorn are then driven on and the pens refilled until the whole band has been re- lleved of its wool and another is started down the line. The sheep are sorted out beforehand, so as to keep the sacked wool graded as nearly as possible, each sack contalning over three hundred pounds or about fifty fle The freighter then loads the sacks and hauls two or three wagon loads at a time, aggregating as high 2,200 pounds, and requiring as many as fourteen horses in harness to cover the level stretches. On the hills and y places the wagons are uncoupled and taken up one at a time, and if caught in the rain on an adobe flat the only thing is to camp and pray for sun- shine. The distance covered each day averages from fifteen to twenty-five miles, according to the weather and the roads, and the opportunities of camping where grass and water are available. The longest hauls are from the Judith Basin to Great Falls, reaching even 150 miles and requiring the best part of a month for a round trip, fleece as dropped, The sacking re done Buying and Selling the Crop. The buyers sometimes visit neighboring shearing plants, £o as to get a better idea of the season’s crop. They then meet and appoint sales days on which the growers present their samples, =:2 the buyers secretly write on slips of paper the amoufts they are willing to pay per pound for each lot. The bids are not opened until the close of the day's business, and on the following morning a slate shows the sales of the day previous as made to the highest bidders. Should the samples not have been fairly selected the fact may not be dis- covered untfl the sacks are opened in the eastern warehouses. No recourse can then be had on the grower, but the following season such sellers are likely to have their wool turned down by all buyers, or at least undervalued by them. Comparatively little trouble is had on this score, howevet. In the eastern warehouses each fleece, natur- ally remaining intact, is spread out on a table, and perhaps six different lengths and grades of wool are sorted from it. Finally all is In readiness for the manufacturers, who then come to select and purchase such grades and quantitiesiot the year's crop as are best sulted fo thelr nesds.—Colller's Weekly.

SCHOOL MYTHS AND ERRORS JARRED LOOSE Exaggerated Tendeney to Make Work y for Chil- dren=Don'ts for Teachers— Sehool Educational Notes. One of the heaviest items in past annual school expenditure, says the Chicago Chronicle, was the swollen appropriauion for special teachers. A marked advance in | sehool management is indicated by the al- most total disappearance of that item from the next school budget Doubtless the special teacher of music and awing was for a period in the de- velopment af a city school system a neces- sity. There was an illusion that only per- sons richly endowed by nature with excep- tional gifis could be trusted to teach either those subjects. This was matched by o myth that lessons in drawing and music should be taken by only those chil- dren whose parents intended them to pur- sue music or drawing as a life vocation. The double error is exploded. Any person of average intelligence can learn music and drawing. It 1s not assumed any longer that to learn grammar means that the stu- dent is to adopt poetry as a means of live- lihood, nor that to receive Instruction in singing points to the stage or that skill acquired in sketching pictorially impiies that the youth thus blessed is to become a Raphael Knowledge of music and some acquaint- ance with line and color have become £o universal that the normal schools are now able to supply all-around teachers quali- fled to guide classes in both these branches. Nor should any candidate not possessed of these qualities recelve a certificate or ap- pointment to teach in the common schools. The gayety of school life was deeply be- holden to the exotic speclal teacher. In the eginning he, or more frequently she, was usually unfitted to maintain order or en- force discipline. The obscuration of the regular teacher of the classroom generally meant {nciplent revolution while the spe- clal teacher attempted to conduct the gov- ernment. It was not that the class had any ineradicable repugnance to elther music or drawing. It was that the typleal American youth is on the alert for a good time and that, as the special teacher was incapgble of enforcing order, it was fun to banish order and play. The hignest and most deliclous drollerys however, was reserved for the French hour, when there was one, or the German | | hour, which continues to be, but with a difference. The special teacher who could not speak English idiomatically had a hard row to hoe even in the best schools and with the most docile children. Nothing is moro amusing to childhood in any country than a strange accent, especially it applied to its own tongue. It is what we are not accustomed to that makes us laugh, ‘whether we are young or | old. Burprise ls either Judicrous er ap- | palling. Of all surprises unwonted words are the most primary and the most en- | livening. Even the llliterate laugh at | language which professes to be familiar but seems strange. The passing of the special teacher from the schools of Chicago will gradually tend to make them more sedate. The premedi- tated antics of the speclal teacher's hour will not exhilarate the present or future generations of mischievous but good- humored youth, The bits of looking glass which used to be smuggled into the class room to throw the sunlight 1ato the speclal teacher's eyes will now be reserved for scientific experi- ments. The pins which were doubtless In- tended for the special teacher's chair are now devoted to marking paper designs, It % much more beneficial, of course, but it 1s mot half so diverting. If, however, the present trend persists there will be a new requirement in teachers. Manual training has become the novelty In pedagogles. The | teacher whe hopes for appointment in the | immediate future will not cnly be expected to teach all the literary and artisile sub- jects, but to be an expert with the saw, the plane, the chisel, the axe, the hammer, | the rolling pin, the flour sieve, the needle, the pickaxe, tne awl, the typewriter, the | hod, the shovel and the frying pan.

Nearly every how foolish it | ne who has catarrh know: to try and cure it by drug- wing Temporary rellef may e given, but a curq seldom comes. Until recently your physician would have eald the only way to cure catarrh would he stomach bo to have a change of climate, but now | with Hyomel you can carry a health-giving climate In your vest pocket, and by breath- ing it a few minutes four times a day soon cure yourself. The complets Hyomel outfit costs but $1.00, and consists of an fnhaler that can be carrled n the vest pocket, a medicine dropper and a bottle of Hyomel. The in- haler lasts a lifetime, and if one bottle does not cure, an extra bottle of Hyomel can be obtained for 50 cents. It is the most economical of all remedles advertised for the cure of catarrh and is the only one that follows nature in her method of treat- Ing diseases of the respiratory organs, The Sherman & McConnell Drug Co., cor- ner 16th and Dodge streets, have sold & great many Hyomel outfits, and the more they sell the more convinced they are that they are perfectly safe In guarantee- ing to refund the money if Hyomel does not cure. Strongest Evi- dence of Faith Sherman & McConnell Drug Co., Cor. 16th and Dodge Stw., Guarantee that Hyomel Will Cure the Worat Onse of Catarrh in Omaha. When one of the most reputable concerns in Omaha guarantees that a medicine will effect a cure or they will refund the money, it speaks volumes as to the merits of that It is in this way that the Sher- McConnell Drug Co., corner 18th and Dodge streets, are selling Hyomel, the treatment that has made so many remark- le cures of both acute and chronio ca- tarrh in Omaha and vieinity. Hyomel s not a pill, nor is it a lquid that has to be taken with a tablespoon or wine glass. Just breathe it by the aid of an inhaler that comes in every outfit and benefit will be <een from the first treatment. It destroys all germ life in the alr pas- sages and lungs and enriches and purifies the blood with additional ozone, It cures catarrh of the head and throat, or of the stomach, liver and kidneys.

This is & good time to cure catarrh by this natural method and pre- vent catarrhal colds that are so common at this season. Cures Catarch the Most Wonderful Cure for Oatarrh Ever Discovered, Sherman & MeConnell Drug C and Dodge Streets. Do not try to cure catarrh by taking drugs into the stomach; it cannot be cured in that manner. The only way in which this too common disease can be cured is through a direct application that will kill the bacllll of catarrh and prevent their growth. Hyome! is the only known method of treatment that acoomplishes this. It is the simplest, most pleasant, and the only absolute cure for catarrh that has ever been discovered. Thousands of unsolicited teetimonals have been recelved from the most promi- nent men and women in the country who have been cured by this remarkable reme dy. Ministers, bankers, lawyers, even em- inent physiclans have given strong testi- monials as to the remarkable powers of tiyomel to cure catarrh. The complete Hyomel outfit costs but $1.00, consisting of an inhaler, dropper and sufficlent Hyomel to last several weeks. This will effect a cure in ordinary cases, but for chronio and deep-seated cases of catarrh, longer use may be necossary, and then extra bottles of Hyomel can be cbtained for 60c. It 1s not alone the best (it might be called the only) method of curing ecatarrh, but it is also the most economical. Bherman & McConnell have 8o much confidence in the power of Hyomel to cure catarrh, that they will for a limited time, sell this medicine under thelr per- sonal guarantee to refund the money it the purchasers can say that It dia mnot help them.
