sheep representing COW. This is not in
ferior in profit to tue dairy, since the aver
age income, in our best dairy districts, does
not exceed $50 per COW. But we must MT
suppose that this average of $l2 per sheep
can be reached with common indifferent
management. We should expect small
degree of carelessness or ignorance in the
management Of Cotswod-, or other long
wool sheep, to reduce this figure one-half,
or to S6 per head just as tho same sort OF
management will reduce the product of
COWS from $50 to $50 which represents the
average of many dairy districts. The weight
mentioned at two years, $50 pounds, is only
obtained by generous FEEDING from the birth
of the lamb and this food must not consist,
too largely, of highly concentrated food,
such rs Iudian corn, but must, t. some ex
tent, consist of green, succulent food, even
m winter, such as roots, pumpkins, or oil
meal The oil meal which we 20 to Eng
land for a market, would make millions of
pounds Of mutton and wool, and leave us
much richer, both in money au1 soil, if fed

How TO Make sheep Pay.

All stock keepers aim at getting pay for
their expense and labor. But the methods
of doing this are widely different. There
Is quite large class who seem TO think
that the profit is inherent in the animal,
and that it only requires so many sheep on
q farm, to make g certain gain and if the
profit is not found, it is the fault Of the
sheep. This class never study the nature
and wants Of the animals, and then provide
Tor them in generous way, that they may
produce q generous return They often lay
great stress upon the breed, but none upon
the care and feed. This class will never
make anything by keeping stock of any
Kind. They beliey something comes from
nothing, in miracles, and not in works.
But the class that can make sheep pay, be-
Iieve that every pound Of mutton, and every
pound of wool represents certain amount
of food and care. They believe much in
breed, but that every breed has been pro-
daced by intelligent selection and generous
treatment. They have no faith that any
6reed can produce a carcass Of 200 pounds
weight and fleece of y to - pounds, with
out eating the amount of food required fol
that weight ofcarcAss and fleece. They know
ihst time is a most important element in
the growth Of all animals, and that the sbor-
weight, the greater the profit. This princi
pie once established, they arc not looking
sor sheep that eat but little, but for those
that can eat and digest the most. They
naturally regard the capacity 10 eat and
utilize food, as the miller does the capacity
Of his mill TO grind If It will grind thirty
bushels per hour, be sees a much larger
profit in one that will grind only ten. 1t
takes a certain amount Of food to support
the respiration and live weight to the sheep
without any growth, and the gain must all
come from the food eaten beyond this i
It eats little it gains little, and what it does
eat is mostly lost. II, by generous keeping
a sheep can reach the weight at y months
that il would reach only in Is TO "A months
with meagre diet, who does not see the
advantage of full feeding! Now, that
Hock-master will succeed best who produces
agiven amount Of mutton and wool from The
least amount Of food.
WHAT LONG WOODS PAY PER HEAD.

4 REIGN OF TERROR IN ITALY.
Horrible Murders Committed by the
Bri-g ands who Rule the South
or TALLY.
london Times Naples Letter.

The monster trial at Potenza, the
capital of the largest province of the
south, continues, and the enOrmities
which the evidence reveals are almost
incredible. Yet one year only has
elapsed since the chief criminal was
arrested. AS instances of the savage
acts committed in this beautiful land,
take the work of a single day: Cap
tain" Alamo and two only of his
baud started on the I'd of July, 1870, TO
sequestrate a rich proprietor called
Laracca, and, having taken him, went
OFF toward the mountains of Niaggia-
no-one of those places, by the by,
where the musicians who have de-
lighted the world are trained from
early youth. On the road they met
two women, whom they ordered to
follow. One of them, resisting their
brutalities {" Death ratherw were her
words) was murdered on the spot; the
other, an older woman, overcome 10y
threats of the dagger and pistol, saved
her life, as she only could ssve it, and
| lived 10 give her evidence.
| A day or two after the capture Of
| Daracca, 20 ducats and some articles Of
| food were sent by his wife as his ram
som but the chief being irrltated by
the smallness of the sum, ordered his
ear to be cut oil, and, supplying him
with pen, ink, and paper, told him to
write from his dictatiOn. The letter,
which is said TO have been stained
/ with blood, may be translated thus
/ Ny DEAR WIFE-Nou see that
am in the hands of brigands. Send
money rs soon as you can, that | may
/ not he murdered. II they would kill
/ me outright il would be well, for / am
/ dying little by little. Send three thou-
/ sand five hundred ducats As pres
eut ] send you my ear; by the next
/ Journey / will send you my nose.
/ This letter awakened all the fears
and zeal Of the family, aud 5000 lire
were collected and despatched, but as
| the sum was far below that demanded,
| they murdered the unfortunate man
and fed, as the troops were upon them.
/ On the next day two other persons
were captured, and the father of one
| came and tried to reduce the ransom.
/ His wife also presented herself and
! begged permission TO accompany her
| husband, when the savage Alamo cut
| Off his car and threw il into her bosom.
| Not, however, 10 multiply such facts,
| Ii Is asserted on evidence that in one
week Alamo and his companions com
mitted two barbarous murders and
/ one violent rape, sequestraied five
/ peTsOns, eXtOrted 1900 lire, and cut
off three ears and one head.
I Two men were almost alone in this
neighbOrhOOd in endeavoring to check

The wonder is that a government or
"A people who had any respect for
themselves have not commenced a
crusade against brigandage. As re-
CARDS the Basilicata, it il a large and
mountainous province, half peopled,
with a widely population,
exposed, therefore, to any razzia which
might be made upon them. Again,
from the want of roads protection was
out of the question, and the brigand
who was acquainted with every noun
tain fastness was secure from the pur-
suit of disciplined troops. The choice
of the inhabitants lay, therefore, be-
tween accepting the position of man
Utengolo, sympathizing with and as
slsLlug the brlgand, or of employing
| individual efforts against savagery.
The government did not or could not
protect them; these wild bands could,
and received their allegiance. Honest
| individuals might resist and suffer, as
did Noia and Tardugno. The civilized
world viii watch attentively the yer

Dust Baths for Poultry.

Cleanliness is important in lighthouses,
for experience shows that poultry are I'M
favorably affected by the emanations from
filthy quarters, and, besides, working in
places where roosts and floors are covered
with the droppings, is decidedly unpleas-
ant. Dry earth, in the form of powder,
scattered everywhere, will absorb the bad
odors, giving wholesome atmosphere to
the hen house, and at the same time pre-
serve the manure in the least offensive con
dltion. Besides these purposes, box of
dry earth should be in a convenient corner
Of every fuwl-hoHss, for the fowls to roll in.
Dust from the highway is the most conven-
lent. Replace the same by an equal guam.
THY Of good gravel, and the public will be
the gamer.

feetlIng FOR Profit.

The feeding of a pig through winter keeps
him alive. There is no growth, or very lit
tie. The feed is, therefore, no better than vast
ed, and it can not pay to feed pig over
winter TO make an additional amount Of
pork. A March pig that will weigh 200 to
$50 pounds at nine months old is the most
profitable one that can be fed. And welt
bred pig can be made to weigh this by con-
slant good feeding. One Of our most e1-
perienced farmers says he has fed pigs to
this weight and kept their mates over TO the
next year, when the latter made no more
than 800 pounds or less. If nine months
feed of young pig makes 200 pounds OF
pork il can not pay to feed full-grown pig,
that needs twice the food, twelve months ia
make the same quantity.

HenIinr Mounds ON Trees

A member at late meeting Of the POtOs
mac Fruit-grOWers Society presented a re-
ceipt for covering wounds in trees with q
cement Of earth and ashes, tempered 50 that
it will adhere easily according TO the plan
based on the well,known fact that clay, fresh

or any other substance making an air

simply assists nature to perform her work
