AFRICAN SHEEP.
"ls hat bv the plOw sOuld thrive.
HmseH must either hold Of dive"


We have often expre ssee The opinion that
The Msrino breed brought By the Arabs into
Spain must have oriEasled from breed pc
ealiar TO Africa. aad have always thought Il
wuald be we'll to examine the various breeds
Of Algiers Morocco, and olher portions OF
Alira.
4 .Thr samples Of woal exhibited 10 the perma-
neht collection from native Algerian fOek we're
consequently great curiosity to US, snd We
examined them sith much care to ascertain
v neither the chief characteristics OF the Merino
could not be traced in them, and to our great
pleasure We fouhl that we were perfectly COZ
rect IN our premises.
The wool samples shown to us were from the
native African sheep. They consisted chiefly in
detached stspes the staples we're perfect, and
composed OF a number Of strands, and each
strand contained a number of regularly curved
wool-hairs. We counted about ! 2 or IS regular
strongly marked curves TO an inch, and the
wool measured three inches in length; when
stretched, good four inches. The wool does
not belong TO the very finest quality, judged
from the few curves to the inch, but il is fine
in comparison to the common European wool
It has great safness, strength and elasticity and
is altogether a superior kind of WOOL
At the agricultural school at Hohenheim,
Nuremberg, there is a collection Of wool sam.
pies from The frs. Spanish Merinos introduced
into Saxony, which are indeed not much fnel
than the samples we speak OF, and OF worst
nature when compared with the wool produced
from the present offspring of that very orgina
s?aniah stock from which the samples wer
t'ben. A few years ofcareful crossings amcny
tNe genuine African sheep would produce
i~rge sized, hardy, pure. constant breed with
long so.t wool, equal to that once famous In
fonuldo negreth breed, and they would SUI
better a warmer climate. II this wool befor
us is from native African sheep, ,lof which W
were repeatedly assured, we think it would pa
we'll to import a number ofthem into the Unite
States to breed from.
"a journey to Algicrs is not difficult undq
taking, it takes generally from Slarseil 81 tw
days TO cross over. The sheep could be shi]
ped from Agicrs in some American vess
touching there. The sheep must be exceeding
cheap there, and the principal expense wou
be the transportation and journey. We shr
collect more Information on this subject, al
shall try to obtain a number OF samples whic
we intend to forward to the american Instiia
efNaO York, which has always exerted itself
promote the interest of the American wo
breeders.-Paris CoTespoadem9fhe " J. II

How TO CLEAN ANIMALS AND PLANTS OF
ERMIS-The agriculture" publishes letter
from NJ. Kaspail giving an account of plan
tor destroying vermn on animals, ana also trees
and plants. The process he recommends, is to
make solution Of alces one gramme of that
gum to a litre Of water, and by means Of .
long brush 10 wash over the trunks and bran
ches of trees with this solution, which will
speedily, he says, destroy all the yermin on
them, and efectuallY prevent others from ap.
preaching. In order to clean sheep or animals
with long hair, they must either be hathed
with this solution, or be well washed with it,
The writer mentions several trials which be
he'd made of the solution with the most com
pete success ard very strongly recommends
j. to general use Paris Correspondent Of

Fat Animals at Exhibitions.

Il has long been one of the greatest evils Of
our agricultural exhibitions, and indeed often
positive loss to the owner, as weA as the
whole country, that an animal, to obtain pre-
MUM must be subjected for some weeks, or
even months, to make rs much fat as possible
and without which his chance in competition
would be dim indeed All points, whether
good or bad, must be covered over with fOt, all
rough places filed up. so as to make a round
barrel.Shaped form, in consequence of which,
often the animal is ruined, and never RECEIVERS
lis natural condition, This excessive fatness
is n state of disease, which often destroys the
procreative powers, and renders him or her
worthless for breeding purposes. This is well
we'll known to farmers. The practice is alto.
gether wrong, and should be diocountenanced
by committees Mt exhibitions, and in the regu
la'ions Of our agricultural societies. Let il be
generally understood that no animal, whether
Of neat cattle. horses, swine, sheep, or even
poultry, which bears evidence of haying been
pampered up for special purpose, and thu,
injured for breeding, can except when intended
for slaughter,be entitled to premium. Ii com.
mittees are judges, and they ought to be, they
would decide If the disposition to latteu (which
is all that is wanted) exists, without this very
unnatural and injurious forcing process--The
present system is great evil, and should be
Iemedied. The selection of experienced men
Ms judges of stock, who can recognize good
tom, ia any condition Of the animal, is,perhaps
the true remedy Penn. farm Journal
