state Sheep shearing.


The committee appointed at the last
meeting of the Ohio Wool Growers As
sociation, to arrange for a public sheep
shearing and exhibition, met last week
and agreed upon the following partIcu-
lars
The sheaIing and exhibition will be
held on the grounds of the Licking Go.
Ag. Society, near Newark, on TUESDAY
and Wednesday, May 10th, and 11th.
Each exhibitor will be limited to the
shearing of five sheep, which should rep
resent different ages OF his sheep, and
also rams and ewes, at his option; but
each exhibitor may show as many sneep
as he desires. and have them shorn on
the grounds after he regular compet-
ton, if time and opportunity should per-
NIT.
All shearing in competition, for sheep
fleece and shearers, shall be done upon a
raised platform to be provided Tor that
purpose by the officers of the grounds.
Immediately after shorn, each sheep
and fleece will be weighed upon the plat
form, q record made Of such weights, to
include also the age, and ownership Of
the sheep, and such other remarks as
the weighing committee shall deem just,
to a fair comparison of the merits OF
sheep and fleece.
There shall be a weighing committee Of
four persons-two for weighing carcass
and two for weighing fleece.
There shall be a committee of three
persons to assist In selecting and deliver
ing sheep upon the platform for shearing.
There shall be a committee of three
persons to award premiums to the best
shearers.
The following premiums are offered to
the best shearers, viz: SIS, SO, and 50, to
the best second and third, of boys under
eighteen years of age; and the same to
shearers over eighteen years of age.
There will be open meetings for dis
c~ussiOn, in the Court House or some 9TH
er public room in Newark, on Monday
evening May 9th, and for a public Ad-
dress and discussion, on Tuesday even
ing, May 10th.
a Band of Music will be present up
on the ground to enliven the exercises of
the occasion.
Cattle, horses and other farm stock
besides sheep may be brought upon the
grounds for exhibition and sale, under
regulations which shall not interfere with
the main urpos of the occasion.
The shearing and exhibition Is open
to all corners who are Tor hen become)
members of the Association by the pay
ment of the annual fee of one dollar; and
to all breeds and varieties of sheep.
Hay will be furnished to exhibitors by
the Association gratis n provisions
will be made for a supply of grain feed,
at cost.
After a careful consideration of the
question of premiums on sheep and wool,
twas unanimously decided that a fair re
cord and publication of the weights and
condition of the heeces, in connection
with the names of the owners, would be
more satisfactory than a schedule of cash
premiums,

Wool Business.

What about wool? is the question pro-
pounded to us as we go among the sheep
men. We will answer at once, what IS
our view of the sheep question:
The probabilities of an early dlsband-
ing of a great portion of our volunteer
forces in the field, have led many to sup
pose that the demand for wooden goods
would decrease, but even in this much
hoped for event, the same men must still
be clothed, by themselves if not by the
Government, and the only difference 1t
can make will be that the economy OF
peace will not use up clothing so fast as
the waste of war. But as a more than
counter-balance to this, there will be
hosts of men similarly situated IN the
south, who must also be clothed IN wool,
and that too in American grown wool !;
so that the closing up of the war will not
diminish the aggregate demand upon our
production. Add to these the fact that
all classes of our people are becoming
more and more consumers of wooden
goods, and we have a solution Of The
main question as to the uture of the
wool business in this country. In set
ting the other details of this business,
the same eauses remain IN force which
have made wool a great and growing ne
eessity for the three last years, viz the
duty on imports, the destruction and neg
leet Of the cotton crop and the intrinsic
necessity of wool as an article OF cloth
ing. All these causes must remain in
full force for several years to come, and
most of them permanently. After this
general statement Of the case, it will be
ask0d,-what price shall we get for our
wool? 1t has already been stated in the
commercial department of the Ohio Far
nler, that it is too soon to say what the
opening figure will be. We do not lay
claim to any knowledge which is not
equally open to all who study the subject
as closely as we do, and let us suppose the
case: the manufacturers will endeavor to
open the market at go to IS cents; the
wool growers will decline to accept such
prices; a few timid farmers will sell for
what they can get, the bulk of the pro-
ducers will hold on for a while the ne
c~essities of the market will compel an
advance until good Ohio fleece viii be
taken at 20 to IS cents, which on a gold
basis will be better than was obtained
last year, and probably all that should be
expected or demanded for this year. We
do not name these figures as a guage to
other peoples feelings, or to intimate
that we would be responsible for the re-
alization of such prices, but having care
fully looked owe the field of supply and
production, in view of the. probable de-
mand and basis Of currency, we think
that is about the way the thing will stand
the current season. Ohio Farmer.

Burn up the Rubbish.

Go where we may, rubbish of all kinds
meets the eye. In the country, branches
of trees are thrown into the fence cor
neFs and there allowed to lie and rot
Chips, old rails, stumps of trees and de-
cayed wood in a variety of forms, are
found almost on every farm. They are
the prolific sources Of fungus in all its
multifarious forms. And fungus is be-
coming the greatet pest in American hor-
ticulture. The cracking of the pear, rot
ting of the grape and specks on apples
are also caused by fungus, while rust and
mildew are only different names for diff
ferent forms of fungus growth.
In the garden aud orchard, everything
that will not rot and make manure in less
than a year should be gathered up and
burnt. The Importance of doing this
promptly is not generally understood
If the branches of trees, potato tops and
woody matter of all kinds be charred in
stead of burnt, it would make excellent
manur And in many instances this
can be done without much trouble. Old
sods from waste places in the garden can
be obtained to cover the heap, and they
will themselves be converted into a most
useful fertilizer. Vegetables of all kinds
