Correspondence of the Mail.
Fort Bextor, Mcntana, May 15, 1882. Stock-raising which has just been ini iated in our Northwest, has become an extensive and remunerative business in Montana, A large number of ranchmen in that territory have, herds numbering from 590 to 5,000 each. Several company ownerships are said to reach as high as from 12,000 to 15,000 head. A few practical re- |marks as to the manner in which stock- |raising is conducted will prove. useful to \intending Canadian Northwest cattle-grow- ‘ers, and interesting to the general reader. \In Montana there are no private ranges. ‘Cattle are turned loose and rcam over the entire extent of the grazing district. For the purpose of harmonizing the general in- terests, and for the better management of \the business, stockmen have organized jamong themselves and formed
DISTRICT STOCK ASSOCIATIONS,
The following is the system adopted by the Shonkin District Association at a meet- ing of large and small cattle owners held at Benton on December last :—
Isc. Every man branding fifty calves annually of any one brand shall be required to attend all round-ups with three saddle- horses. Should he brand less than fifty, he may exercise his option to attend or pay the association $3 per head for branding his calves.
2nd. A man with three saddle-horses may represent 200 calves of one brand, branded annually. In case of an excesss ef 200, but less tham 250, he may exercise his op:ion to put on another man, or pay the association $1 per head for branding jthe excess. At 250 he is required to put another | MAN WITH THREE SADDLE-BORSES,
and can brand to 400. In case of excess, he is bound by the rule of fifty, and so on, for each succeeding 200 head branded.
3rd. All revenues afising from work done by the associatioh— from the’sale of ‘* Mauv- ticks” and other sotirces—shall be turned into an association. fund; and used for building corrals, ptiehasing. bulls, and applied to expenses for the benefit of the entire assogiation.
It may be explained here that the term ** Mauvrick” is derived from a Colorado man of that name, who took possession of all calves which had escaped branding, and had his own brand put on. He conimenced business with no stock, but ina few years possessed a large herd.
4th. The expense that is incurred on roundups, and whatever handling of cattle is rendered necessary at
OTHER SEASONS OF THE YEAR,
outside of each man’s time, use of saddle horses, and expenses of a private nature, shall be borne pro rata according to the number of calves branded.
Bulls will be taken off the range every fall, and herded by themselves until the [roper time to release them for rendering service to the cows. By this course the calves can be brought in the favorable mouths of the year, instead of dropping in the winter and early spring. It is estimated that this plan will insure an acditional 40 per cent. profit per annum. Persons not members of the association will not be permitted to round up with it, to use its property, or derive any of its benefits, Present corrals become associa- tion property, and
OTHER DESIRABLE SITES
for erecting new ones will be at once secured. It was decided to erect buildings at certain points, and station men there to herd cattle within the limits claimed by the association, and. to prevent depreda- tion of white or red thieves.
The term ‘‘ roundup” means a general gathering of ajl the cattle on the range for the purpose of branding calves, selecting stock, &c. This is done twice a year, viz., in spring from the 15th to 25th May, and in the fall from the 15th to 25th Septem- ber. As ona general range
EVERY MAN’S RIGHTS ARE EQUAL,
and taxation is levied on each head of stock, it is necessary that every man should look after his own. To bring out the care- less or indolent or make them responsible for their share of expenses incurred, rules and regulations similar to those passed by the Shonking Association are really neces- sary. Ranges sometimes extend over 100 miles. When the time agreed on for com- mencing a‘‘ round up” arrives, a party of from 30 to 60 men assemble. They are provided with vehicles, horses, tents, hed- ding, and provisions.

they are introduced ‘to the minor corral, where a man on horseback is ready with » * lasso,” which is thrown over the calf iv.- tended to be operated on, made fast to a “ snubbing post” and drawn close up to it. Another man passes a small ‘* Jasso” around the heels of the calf and secures it thoroughly in the required position.
EAR MARKS ARE MADE, >
brisket flaps are cut. and young bulls are converted into steers in qmick time. Out- side the corral is a fire.for. heating the branding-irons hot. The brand is pressed against the bellowing animal, burning through the bide, and giving out a pal- pable smell of beefsteak cooking. The work is exciting and requires expert work- men wha can put through 300 calves a day. Two hundred calves represent 700 stock of last year—cows, steers, and heifers. Cows and calves are turned loose as soon as the calves are branded. The operation is con- tinued day after day until the whole range has been completed. Beef steers are driven kieng with the main herd, and disposed of, or kept over, as the case may be. A “‘ CHUTE” OR NARROW LANE
is constructed from one of the corzals: for venting large cattld or horses. “*Venting” means placing an additional brand on an animal, which implies thatthe original brand is relinquished. Frequently the original brand is put on inverted or a bar is burned across the original brand. A brand can be recorded in the oftice.of the territorial treasury fora fee of one dollar, which protects the owner against other par- ties using the saine brand. It is considered advisable to ear mark as well as to brand cettle. The size of
THE CATTLE BRAND
is frem six to seven inches in length —that for horses from two to three _ inches, Horses have to be blindfolded or thrown to be branded, and the brand has to be _nitide very hot and the operation quickly per formed, on account of the thinness of the hide and hair.

The Egyptian Question.
LORD SALISBURY INDICTS THE GOVERNMENT,
In the House of Lords’ the Marquis of Salisbury made an important speech a few days ago on the Egvptian question. He said great works of .English industry are being destroyed, vast quantities of British capital are not only being imperiiled, but inveetmonts tiet have grown up during long years of confidence are being utterly destroyed, so that they cannot be restored again, and worse, the lives of British sub- jects and British officials, of officers of the British fleet, are being sacrificelin a sea- port town within sight of the fleet. (Hear, hear.) Surely, my Lords, is it not too much that Parliament should ask to know what measures Her Majesty’s Government propose to take for the protection of these imperilled interests and lives in this moment of acute crisis, and that they should ask for some explanations as to the position of the fleet and the functions which it is supposed to perform.
FOR WHAT WAS THE FLEET SENT THERE?
For what is it kept there? Many views might be advanced with respect to the object that the fleet has to fulfil. It might be supposed that iis object was to support the Government .of the existing Viceroy, but that object clearly it has not fulfilled. It might be thonght that it was to demon- strate the power of Great Britain, but it has demonstrated exactly the reverse. (Hear, hear.) It might be supposed that ita object was to enforce those demands which Her Majesty's Government have put forward in most peremptory laugwage, and which they have said they are prepared to exact the fulfilment of, if it be neces- sary. And amongst those demands is pro- minent the removal of Arabi Pasha, yet Arabi Pasha is still supreme, and if we are not misinformed, he has been taken into council by the representative of the Sultan, with, | understand, the countenance of the representative of England, for the purpose of maintaining order, which neither suze- rain nor foreige power can maintain. It, therefore, has done nothing whatever to fulfil that pledge which Her Majesty's Government gave that they would exact the fulfilment of their demands, (Hear) It might be supposed that at least it would perform the humbler, but most useful and necessary, fanction of protecting British property and lives, but all that it has been able io do has been to furnish a safe place trom which British officers have been com- pelled to witness
THE PAINFUL AND REVOLTING SPECTACLE
of British subjects being endangered and slanghtered at the water's edge, and they being powerless to prevent it. (Hvar, hear) My Lords, if these things are true it becomes necessary to ask why the fleet is there and why it staysthere. (Hear, hear.) It is called a *‘ naval demonstration.” What does itdemonstrate! Does it demons
and a day and night herder to look after saddle and driving horses. The gamp is | moved a certain distance each day. Every stockman or representative joins his par- | ticular party with three saddle horses to) each “ round-up” man—one horse to re- place the other, forenoon, afternoon, or on extra work, as the riding is generally very | hard. Commencing at one end of the) range, the horsemen scovr the country | laterally and longitudinally; scrutinize | eqery ravine and coulee, and bing in the wi'd herds to advantageous p ia's where ¢ ira's have teen corstruc‘ed by the united work of the stock owners. The main cor- vals are generally 200 feet in diameter, and are large enough to handle a herd of
TWO THOUSAND CATTLE.
| Bach large corral has attached two minor ones, about 60 feet in diameter, connected by a gateway.
'
used to accommodate special brands and for branding. The process of ‘“‘ cutting qut’ ip the Jarge corral consists of first separating Cows with unbranded calves—
vals are kept spare saddle and other horses | actually during the day, the other minor corral isto call upon Her
strate anything else than the impotency of Great Britain and the feebleness of her councils. If it had not been for the fleet much of what hes happened would not have occurred. If it has not been able to do anything else it has been potent, and very petent, to influence the passions of the Egyptian people. It is not too mucn to ray that upon those who sent the fleet there without the resolution to follow up their action, without the necessary force at hand to give effect to their policy, lies the responsibility of the blood which issued by t xe passions whi-h th» presence of the fleet provoked. (Hear, hear.) My Lords, with no wish to interfere with the course of the policy upon more lasting matters which her Majesty’s Government are to pursue, caly desiring to know what provisions they are taking to meet an actual crisis
In one of the smaller cor- |and to protect lives and industries that are
threatened, we have a right Majesty's Government for a more full declaration of their actions and theirintentions. (Hear, hear.) It would be a very huwiliating thing un- doubtedly to withdraw the fleet, but to
