We quote the following from the
Iowa State Agricultural Report for
last year, page u. Those who look
there for it will find more also, in
the same strain, which we do not
care to give:
"From Maine to Oregon, and from
Florida to California, comes loud
wailing Of the destruction of sheep
by dogs. Figures could be produced
showing the vast aggregate of loss in
Iowa; and it is patent that they in
fict more injury directly, and dis
courage more sheep growers, indi-
rectly, than all other agencies COM
bined. Dogs multiply as rapidly rs
sheep decrease. Now, what is the
remedy? or can human ingenuity
invent an effective antidote to this
universal poison? Past legislation is
in too many instances bitter mock
cry; and lawmakers will pass an
act affecting the marriage contract,
taxation, representation, suffrage,
and other important matters, social
and political, but they are exceed
ingly cautious as to any legislation
affecting the relations between the
dog and his master. And poison
and the rife, in private hands, are
but an Indifferent weapon; very few
are willing, even in the EXTREMIST
act Of self-preservation, to use them,
fearing vexatious litigation, or what
is if possible worse, the ill-will of his
neiphborhoOd. There is not a sensi-
BILE man in the State but who will
freely admit that the unnumbered
hordes Of dogs infesting the towns,
and cities, and every hamlet in the
country, are at best nuisance, ex-
pensive, worthless and dangerous.
Contrariwise, the more stump-talied
the dog; the more miserable I'M crag-
ElilcSS Tic HIOIS iti, tIi' HiO'S t'hN'
ing and destructive the pup, the
more do the fondest affections Of the
whole household cluster about it,
with love stronger than death.
Taxation by Congress and legisla-
ton by States will not cure the evil.
The remedy seems to be OF two-fold
character, viz: LIST, For every sheep
owner to protect his fold by all
known physical means in his power,
and by writing for the press, and by
talking at Farmers Clubs, and on all
appropriate occasions urging dog
owners to dispose of, kill and cause
TO perish all their worse than worth
less hounds, and turn their attention
to something infinitely more profit
able. And the second is like unto
it, namely: the education Of the
people to correct opinions on this
Subject"

AMEN TO IT.-The Jasper RcpubH-
can has the following. We endorse
every word of it; and our readers
know that we have always acted ac
cordingly. We have refused enough
Advertisements of the class mentioned
to more than fill our whole paper, and
have perhaps lost considerable money
by so doing; but it is matter of prin-
ciple with Us to keep our paper pure,
and we shall do that at whatever cost.
The Republica" says:
"a st. Louis advertising firm per-
sists in reinitting us regularly, about
once a month, Il batch Of advertise
ments relating to private diseases, and
makes Us fiattering offers TO induce us
to insert them in the columns of the
Rcpubticdn. One paper in this city Is
already inserting these advertise
ments, and it can do all the good at
tainable in this locality. In filling
up our advertising columns, we en-
deavor to shield our readers from that
disreputable and immoral class of
which these are specimens. The
Republican is taken largely az family
paper; it is read by wives, daughters,
sisters and children; and we should
consider ourselves justly reprehensible
did we not, to the extent of our abili-
ty, protect the purity of the family
circle in this respect"

Publishers Of VorEs.

PUT on THE CoUNTY.-Letters are
now distributed on mail trains while
the cars are running, instead of being
sent to distributing P6stofices as
formerly. Hence the work of assort-
ing them has TO be done very rapidly,
and the distribution is made mainly
by Counties. Consequently, when a
letter is directed 10 any small town or
country Postofiice, the name OF the
County should always be plainly
written on the envclope-otherwise
the letter is much more liable to be
missent than formerly. Direct your
letters plainly, in a good, large hand,
with ink, putting OH the name of the
County as well as town where you
wish them to 60, and you'll seldom il
ever be troubled by their being lost on
the way.
