The cattle-growers who grase thoir herds on tho Northern ranges hare kept the fact of their being engaged in that business so constantly before the public that they have created the impression that the larger portion of the cattle in the country graze on the arid plains or in the Rocky Mountain valleys and parks.

This la a mistake. Given a country where corn thrives. there will be found cattle and hogs in great numbers. All intelligent agriculturists know that the Mississippi valley is divided into great belts of land, eacn aisunguisnea oy some marked peculiarity of soil and climate that determines the use to which it is devoted. The upper Mississippi valley is wheat land; the lower upper, corn land; the upper lower, cotton land; and the low er, so-caueu sugar land.

It is true that oorn can be raised in the wheat and in the cotton belt, and even in the sugar belt; but it is not corn as the Western corn-growers use the word. The corn-belt proper includes Illinois, iowa, Missouri, and Eastern Kansas and Nebraska. Portions of Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee properly belong in this belt. But I use the first division for convenience of illustration. Where corn grows perfection there is always plenty or feed for cattle.

Millet will grow and yield bountiful crops throughout the region. The same is true of oats; and wheat, though not a sure crop in the corn belt, is extensive ly sown. in l7U there were 22,501,837 domes tic horned cattle in the United States. In 1880 the census shows that there were 34,931,670 cattle in the country an increase of 12,430,333 during tbe decade. Of this increase 6,022,968 were in the five corn States of Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska.

When the last census was taken, more than one-fourth of the cattle in the country were in those States. In 1880 our production of.com was bushels. The five corn States produced 1,071,505,344 bushels more than half the crop. It is plainly seen that where the land yields large crops of com, there the cattle naturally gravi tate. In 1880 there were, in all that exten sive area composed of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon and Washington, 1,786,262 cattle, or less than there wero in Illinois, and but 351,974 more than there were in the young State of Kansas.

New York, which is never spoken of as a cattle-trowing State, contained in 1880 2,300,088 cattle 613,827 more than then grazed on the whole pf the arid, belt, the much vaunted grazing grounds of the yWcat, In my opinion the nsus of 1890 will show tbat there will be more cattle iu the three corn-growing States of Illinois, Iowa and Missouri than in the entire plain region, excepting Texas. of course. And there will not be as much acute suffering, nor as many miserable deaths from starvation and cold, in the three States as there will be among the cattle existing through the winter in a single county in the so-called cattle country. In 1880 there were 3,994,102 cattle in Texas. The Texas cattle, men bo thoroughly understand their business, and the State is so well adapted to raising cattle, that nothing need be said of them or their lands.

All Texas cattle-growers realize that they must not overstock their range, now fully stocked. Those at all familiar with Texas know that as long as grass grows and water runs that State can be relied Xn to supply from 750,000 to annually cows can raise calves on the Texas ranges and live, and the same is true of New Mexico and Arizona and portions of the Indian Territory.

O. Oil The oldest newspaper in the world it the King-pau, or "Capital Sheet," pub lished in Pckin, and since the 4th of last June issued in a new form pre scribed by special edict of the reigning Emperor, Quang-boo. It brat appeared A. D. 911, but came out at irregular in tervals.

Since the year 1351, however, it has been published weekly and of uniform size. Until its reorganization by imperial degree it contained nothing but orders in council and court news, was published about midday aud cost two kaah, or something less than one cent. Now, however, it appears in three editions daily. The first issued early in the morning, and printed on yellow paper, is called Bring I'au King Pau (Business sheet), and contains trade prices, exchange quotations and all manner of commercial Intelligence. Its circulation is a little over 8,000.

The second edition which comes out during the forenoon, also printed on yellow papor, is devoted to official iui-nouncementa, fashionable intelligence and general news. Besides iu ancient title of King Fan, it owns another designation, tbat of Bhutn I'au, or "Official Sheet." The third edition appears late in the afternoon, is printed on red paper, and bears the name of Titani Pau (Country Sheet). It consists of attracts from the earlier editions, and Is largely subscribed for in the provinces.
