thoroughbred horse will be stronger
than a cart horse in little more than
half the compass. Ii is asserted-and
it is doubtless true-thst the thorough
bred can support greater weight upon
his back than the common horse.
For farming purposes the blood horse
is in every way superior to the scrub,
and more particularly in the south and
south hwest, where the heat of the eli
mate makes good wind and endurance
an almost indispensable requisite. Ex-
perieDce has convinced all the owners
vi stage AMI ex press lines t;lat il is good
econony 10 pay higher prices for horses
of sume blood than common horses at
even comparatively low rates. All
livery and stable keepers will agree IN
this opinion. When corn is up to the
horses withers, pillow with half-bred
and scrub side by side, and the form.
er will be found to stand up best under
the laoor and fatigue.
Assuming these facts to be correct,
we hold to our original theory as to the
of the thoroughbred over
the Norman or any other family of
hurses, for crossing with cold-blooded
stock, whether for heavy draught, road
purposeses, or the turf.--( turf, Field

Gen. n.EearHfltory, famous in the histo-
Rsof the late 3ar as member of the
fighting McCook family, was assassin
ated about 9 O'Clock on Thursday, the
18th inst, in an unjustiiabie and most
cowardly manner, by Peter P. Winter
mute. During the day the st. Paul
excursionists had been arriving at
Yankton hsd been exertinE It's utmost

been drinking, and attended railroad
tax payers meeting t:ie same night,
with, as some say, the avo"rd inten-
tion of breaking it up During one OF
the speeches Wintermrte Ieit the meet
ing and followed Gen. MrCoOk, ad-
dressing him in an insulting ranner.
McCook spoke to him Pleasantly, and
told him to 90 away; that there was no
need of any fuss; bat Wintermute per-
sisted. Becoming unenaursble, Nc
Cook finally resented his bad treat
ment by bruising Wintermute's face.
Wintermute returned to Tn, meeting,
interrupted the speaker by insulting
remarks, and then subsidei for about
half an hour, during which time he
watched the entrance, and suddenly
arising, ran to the door aud deliberate
ly shot and killed the General, wEol
was standing without in the passage
way, unarmed and unprepared for any
such encounter. The excitement runs
high, and much talk of lynching is
heard, but the friends of law and order
have so far prevailed and prevented
anything rash.
Wintermute formerly lived in MINI
nesota, and moved to Yankton about
two years ago, where he started small
bank, and during the summer of this
year instigated a suit against the
OAK ota Southern Railroad Company,
which was by many people considered
unwarrantable and unjust. Gen. Me-
Cook held opposite views, but there
had been no discussion of these matters
between the parties. Wintermnte was
in liquor when he shot the General,
but upon all occasions is abusive and
overbearing, Boosting of what his
money can accomplish. He has some
small means, and it is reported he en-
tertains expectations of being cleared.
There are at least fifty witnesses of the
deed, and a miracle alone will save
Wintermute unless the law is tamper-
ed with.
Gen. McCook is sincerely mourned
by all good people. The flags are at
half mast throughout the city, and his
remains leave at midnight for Cincin-
natl, honest, and honorable military
and civil officer, aad no word of re-
proach against his career in either civil
Or..military life can be maintained

principle in all things, was strong in
his advocacy of what he considered
right, and defended mis- friends as a
matter of conscience. He never car
ried weapons of any description, in
any affray, it was always clear that he
was never the aggressor, but acted al
ways on the defensive.

Success with sheep.


There have been Indications for some
time and from various quarters, that
wool is going to advance IN price. The
demand appears to be heavy in Eng
land, and this affects our own market.
We have watched the sheep and wool
business for several years, during which
time there were several panics, sheep
being butchered for their pelts and tai
low; but Immediately after prices
rose, and then every sheep was saved.
Meanwhile, those who kept on stead
lily and sold at the going prices have
done well; while those who held wool
over a year or 50 thereafter were well
paid. Tho truth is, there is no better
business, year after year, than that OF
sheep husbandry, and for the reason
that the increase OF cur population isso
constant and great as to keep up
steady demand for all kinds of wodien
fabrics. AS it has been in the past so
it is quite certain to be in the future,
and those who have sheep may safely
get more. But let not inexperienced
men rush in, for complete knowledge
is required and constant attention. The
best way to get good flock of sheep is
to raise them, because there are but
few chances to buy such sheep as will
pay to keep, unless at high price. He
who has good sheep knows it as well as
anybody else, and, as general thing,
If he offers to sell sheep they will be
culls. A beginner should buy a few
good American Merinos, say from
twenty to fifty, and if they are really
good-that is, young and free from dis
ease-there is more increase and money
in them than in flock of 500 culls, old
scabbV, and otherwise unsound. in
fact, such sheep are not worth the feed
required to winter them, and the best
use to make of them is to send them toI
the butcher, if that is allowable. BY
commencing with few sheep palms.
taking man can learn bow to manage
them as fast as they grow, being like
some schOol-teachers, who learn as fast
as their scholars do. 1t will take from
three to five years to learn the sheep
business, and by that time the flock
should be Of respectable size.

Winter Protection of GrassLands

Winter Protection OF GraSSLands.
There are still many among the bet
ter informed who favor feeding the
aftermath, or in other words denuding
the meadows and pastures. They hold
that the aftermath is an excellent food,
rich in nitrogen. They do not consider,
it seems, that results of superior inn
portanee may be reached by retention
Of the fall growth; or do they hold that
the grass itself suffers loss by being rot
ted down? Its clear enough that this
last cannot be the case, as the grass is
pressed down by the snow close 20 the
ground, and in the spring the rains rot
and wash down the substance. The
roots, lying near the surface, get this
at once and exhibit growth superior
co that which would have taken place
without this rotting. So the only loss
is the interest on the value. Now for
the other benefits of retaining the af-
termath. We have seen fields cut so
late that they were almost barren when
winter came, while others had thick
coat of aftermath. In the spring and
through the summer, the difference was
plainly seen, and the part retaining the
aftermath yielded the best crop. Snow
alone is protection. Ii not excessive
ly deep, SO as to smother, and if lies
till late in the spring, if prevents the
frost from lifting the grass; and when
the snow disappears there is often
green look and an immediate growth.
Thus decomposition of the grass need
not interfere, or only to partial ex-
tent. We know the effect of winter
winds upon knobs, laying the ground
bare and exposing the grass. Even a
ledge or row of evers reens will make
a marked difference.
Some object to a heavy aftermath
that il affords hsrbOr for mice. The
mice will flourish some seasons with
without the aftermath. The roots of
plants from their sustence, and the
snow is their protection, while the
stubble and other refuse furnish ma
terial for their nests. Lack of pr0tec-
tion may ruin a meadow or pasture,
if not we'll drained. The
value of the aftermath as a protection
is equal ito its value as feed. If the
grass is scant, from drouth or other
cause, for fall feed give corn stalks,
clover hay, roots, &c. 1t is in general
better t., commence wiuter feeding ear
lier than is usually done. Our stock
are too much exposed to cold rains and
, ct fields-an evil that no good farmer
will fail 10 avoid. If manure is need
ed, coat in the fall is excellent, as it
stimulates growth, and gives double
louble protection.-IF. g., in Live
Stock Journal.
