In addition to his sheep, Mr.. wadding-
ton kept II horses, number Of cattle, and
few hogs He has 800 acres Of land,
mostly hill, and in fertility can hardly b.
compared to the rich soil Of Iowa. In I'D
dition 70 the protits Of his stock, he sold
enough grain, vegetables, ETC., 10 pay his
taxes and keep up repairs. How many
farmers are there in Iowa who have cleared
ntteen hundred and thirty three dollars,
from three hundred and acres, during the
last year nom raising grain4
Now. let US calculate for . moment what
could probably be realized in Iowa in grow
ing wool. Suppose . farmer would buy
ono thousand sheep, mostly ewes, after
shearing next spring. and that they would
cost him five dollars each when they were
landed in Iowa. The income and expense
Of keeping the sheep for one year, would
foot up about a. follows:
1000 lbs. Of wool at 90 cents per
P"u"u 81, 900

AZ it will take more hay in Iowa than in
Ohio to winter sheep, will allow fifteen
tons to every hundred. A farmer with two
horses. three hired men, a hay rake. and
one Of English & Dixon's mowers can cut
and stack or put into barn ten acres of prai
RE grass per day. 1t would be safe 10 allow
two tons Of hay to the acre-they would
therefore cut and put away twenty tons per
DAY. Allowing two dollars per day to each
hand, two dollars for the team. and two
dollars to compensate the farmer. the hay
ready to feed would cost but fifty cents pcr
ton. The expense Of keeping one thousand
sheep one year might be sumed up thus:
Cost Of cutting and stacking $50 tons
600 bushels shelled corn at 80 cent.

THE TARIFF. Washington correspon-
dent OF the Baltimore Sun says 1t was not
the purpose Of Mr. Morrill,, as chairman of The
committee of ways and means, 10 propose essen
tlal or numerous changes of the tariff at this
session; but the committee have been so hardly
pressed by manufacturing wool growing, spec
ulating and monopolIzDg interests, to increase
the rate OF duties that they seem to hesitate
what to do. A week or two ago it was stated
that the WOO -growing and wool manufacturing
interests had settled upon scheme, with the
appreciation Of the committee But it seems
that compromise has been broken off, and the
parties are at sea again. The Western States
demand a show in the spoiIs of high tariff for
the benefit Of their wool, fax, hemp and other
products Then, again, the paper money and
banking interests, seeing that the whole fabric
Is shaken and is soon to tumble in ruins, insist
upon prohibitory duties to prevent imports
and keep gold in the country.
