When stock is turned on the range in good condition' in early ,prlng they thrive from the start, while if turned out poor and. weak it requires several wei?ks to 'start them to improving;- consequently they ara a -111 behind when taken up In the fall and If put ou the market they must so at a reduced price.

MORE LIGHT WILL WAKE SLEEPERS IN JERUSALEM, The -river Jordan the one in Asia, not In Utah between Meran on the sea of Gallilee, makes a descent of 700 feet In altitude, and a company i being forme 1 to pick up this pow er that is running to waste, and with It surp'y e.ery considerable town in 1 Palestiae with electric light. That I will be one more step toward the ' redjmption of that, the most' interest j ng country in the world. Already it is I being penetrated by a railroad, and a conservation of the water is being made that will place all the good soil under' cultivation1, and now the . towns i are - soon: to be ablaze, with electric lights. Will all these agen cies be sufficient" 'to drive away the superstition and lethargy of those people ". that ; have i merely ' vegetated there for well nigh two thousand years? We 'suspect not, but It will eventually push them aside. When the Arab sees the. cargoes: of fifty camels thrown Into a car and hauled away aO Inimitable speed by a black comet that Uvea on fire and 'water, he will ' when ' his wonder Is . satis fied, say to his saddle ''dromedary: "This la no longer a place for us, let us seek the Inner fastness of the des ort," and he wilL follow the Impulse. When the Turk and the Jew sees a hoisting engine lifting the material Tor a house bigger than" the great tem ple was, into place and see that struc ture' fini8hed In ' a year, they will search their old. records In vain for any precadont for such work; when they hear the scream of that steam whistle and suddenly behold some night the city . which a moment be fore was in darkness, burst Into a light like the sunlight, and learn that this light hao come upon, a wire from their loved Jordan ; they will stand aghast before the now miracles, and their instinct will be likewlso, to flee to the desert. But If enough ' Utt red school houses are built there th ' coming generation will be able to read the story of all-thelr past and mark leg what has come to them, will re read with Increasing Interest : that story end will oay: .'JThla after all is but a culmination. It was all prom ised when the world was In darkness and the hearts of the people bowed in despair." Then the mighty regen eration will begin in earnest and Je rusalem, tho holy, will be transform ed with a splendor that nolther David nor Solomon ever dreamed of. The street will he widoncnV graded and paved, and a temple will be replace fnlrer than wrs their great temple with Its stainless walls and gilded roof; it will bo' of steel and marb!i and p'.ato glass: the sun will give U glory by day r.nd at, night from wlttv In a glory will blaze out that will be a sign that old things have passed away and the world's final regenera- j tbi has begun.
