Sheep after shearIng..

AFTER a sheep has lost its fleece, the
skin of the animal becomes very sensitive
to the heat of q searching sun, OF the chill
OF a cold storm. To be convinced of this,
and the importance of making some tx-
ira exertiOn for the comfort of the ari.
mails, it is only necessary to visit the field
where the flock is kept, when the day is
hot or immoderate, and witness the dis
comfort manifested In either case the
sheep will be found seeking shelter, pant
ing or shivering, and of course suffering
severely.
Probably the most economical mode of
protecting the flock is TO turn them into
the woods, or into field, a part of which
is covered by forest trees. Here, in hot
day they are shielded from the sun, and
in cold storm get some protection. 1t
is better, however, when a cold storm ap.
proaches, to drive the flock up, and keep
them in the barn until the weather is
suitable for them to go out again.
1t will be remembered that but a few
years ago. thousands ofsheep were killed in
Northern Ohio, by a cold storm some
time in June Farmers at that time who
were thoughtful enough to care for theiI
fiOcks saved them, and the lesson learned
them should be remembered. 1t is mo-
frequent that we have summer storms
severe enough to kill sheep outright
unless, perhaps, it be q few old "pel
ters," yet that is no argument agains
giving them protection, for when an ami
NAL suffers from any cause, it declines il
flesh, health and strength
At this season it is particularly impor
tant that ewes with lambs be given al
the advantage possible for they have TIVE
lives to support, and the draught upon thei
systems is heavy enough, without beinl
subjected to endurances which might, will
| care be averted, Ohio Farmer

Improvement In Grain.

EXPERIMENTS have demonstrated, and
analogy has shown, that the finest and hest
samples of seed, continued for years, will
improve the quality and quantity of the
product. A better wheat is thus raised ;
even variety may be established. On
this principle in farm stock, we have the
short. horn, the blooded horses, and the
different breeds of sheep, swine, poultry,
&c.
We plant and SOW cas- it comes" We
take the seed of the same grain that we
use in the aggregate, and SOW it. Is not
this the case almost always? Corn is an
exception to some extent-but why do we
except cornP Because il is handy to
select. But why select at all ? Because
it is understood to be good. Analogical-
ly, then, it is good to do the same with
wheat, oats, barley, sc. But this is less
easily done; we therefore neglect it. How
long will it take u farmer to 60 through
his wheat and secure the finest and ripest
heads sufficient to SOW an acre, or half an
acre, or qusrter--or even pint of seed ?
This pint sowed will be sufficient to form
test crop. The best heads taken from
this again, and sowed, will yield another
test crop, from which should be taken as
before; and so on for number of years,
say half dozen-mOre still better. But
three or four years will work decided
difference But the thing should be CON
tinued from selected wheat every time.
In this way grain can be improved and
crops enlarged. There will be larger
grains, earlier maturity and better growth.

Summering Young Calves.

THE first summer is the important one
for calves. If they come through it in
good, sound, thrifty condition, their future
rearing is easy. II they get pot bellied,
out of shape, and stunted year will be
lost in their development and growth, and
they will never be 80 good as they would
have been had they kept growing from
their birth. The secret of success in rails
ing calves is to keep them thrifty from the
Dery.StGrt. Let them never get a check, and
they will pay in the end for the extra care,
A frequent mistake is to turn calves out
to grass too early. Thy have to cat a
large amount of succulent food, to supply
to their unprotected digestive organs a
sufficient amount of such nutriment as
they can use, and they develop enormous
paunches, out of all proportion to their
frames. BY trolicking they eXpend, in
muscular waste, material that should go
to help their growth, and by becoming
over heated they disarrange their entire
systems. Later in the season, ON stinted,
draught-parched pastures, they are often
rs much starved by the want of food as
they were earlier by the want of ability
to make complete use of what they did
| eat.
Calves should not be weaned on grass,
unless constantly with their dams, and
receiving bountiful supply of milk late
into the season. Good rowen hay, (or
cured graSS) which contains a large pro
portion of nutriment that the young stom-
achs can easily appropriate, and lib
eral feeding, twice or three times day,
with skim milk Withholding water, so
that they will drink the more milk-is the
best bill of fare for at least four months.
At the end of that time, they may, un-
less the weather is excessively hot, be grad.
ually accustomed to short and fine pas.
ture. until they will thrive on that alone.

The Public Finances.

A FEW days ago General Garfield, a
statesman OF the most undoubted veraoity,
made a speech at Columbus in which he
gave resume, more particularly in
financial point of view, of the first four
months OF Grants administration. That
exhibit has been before the country, and
has challenged Democratic criticism with
out eliCiting it. We have yet To see any
attempt even to analyze and hold up to
Teproach or ridicule this Garfield demon
stration of the falsity of copperhead cal
umnies. Bare assertion is all that the
railers bring up against IL, and mere say.
so is Of no account when opposed by facts
and figures that cannot he gainsaid.
General Garfield first touched upon
the corrupt rings which, under johnson,
gained such mastery Of public administra.
tive affairs. Take the whisky ring for ex-
ample. He says that in May, 1868, the
total manufactures gave To the revenue
but 81 500 600, whereas last month IL pro.
duced $4,000, 900, with thirty six collection
districts yet to he heard from. The other
branches of the revenue service exhibit
proportionate improvement. Although
the first three quarters of the fiscal year
yielded but $2j60O0,000, the current quar-
ter will yield not less than $100,0 900 or
$20,000,000 more than was received in any
single quarter under johnson. That the
receipts of the Government have been
greatly increased is beyond controversy.
Turn now to the expenditures.
From the same source we learn that
the first three quarters of the present fs-
cal year the expenditures amounted TO
$25B, ,0OOOOO, or an average exceeding $50.
600 900, which, for the current quarter
will not exceed 100000, ,00O or SEQ,
N al baF .,f
year. II is safe to conclude that, unless
some extraordinary event occurs, the APP
preparations made by Congress, reiucCd
though they were from the estimates of
the johnson Cabinet, will be more than
enough to meet all expenditures. Garfield
estimates the surplus at $37, 100000 This,
however, Is conjecture, the other figures
we have given are not based at all upon
guess work
AS a result of this increase of receipts
and decrease of expenses the National
debt is being steadily reduced. There il
to-day July ~ due interest on the public
debt, inclusive of the Pacific Railroad
bonds, thirty-two millions in gold and
three millions in currency, or thereabouts.
The Government will he able to meet
these claims aud still have n surplus, esti.
mated by q Washington dispatch of yes.
terday at S8,000,000 II Is not claimed
that the plan of wedding out rascals and

this much is certain, the progress made
has been greater than those who knew the
difficulties to be encountered in reform an

steady increase in the income and decrease
in the ougoes of the Government during
the present Administration.-Ch Chicago
