KEEP THE SHEEP.

We learn that many Of our farmers
have sold all or nearly all of their sheep
to spectators, who have shipped them
East. This VIC believe is bad policy. 1t
is true it will put a few dollars of cash in
their pockets, but it will result in making
them "hard up" next year. If every far,
mer would keep, say one hundred sheep,
which can DO done easily at u very small
cost, the increase aud the wool be would
get would be sufficient in five years to
make him independent. One Of our
farmers who has been giving his attention
10 raising sheep for a few years, informed
US a few days since that the crop of rag
weed alono on his farm this year was suf>
ticient too keep 500 sheep. He says that
sheep prefer this weed to grass. He cut
a large amount of the weed and stored
it away dining the Summer which he will
feed this winter. II sheep can be raised
ard kept in good condition on rag weed
as our patron informs us. this stock would
certainly pay better than any other
We hope our farmers will in the future
give more attention to sheep raising.

the money is not made in raising

couriers Of civilization, society must, of
necessity, be in a kind of chaos. As a
consequence most Of these people have
not had that strict and high regard for
sacredness of the Sabbath and sanctuary
which characterizes religious communities.
A Few years ago we published a full
account of a disgraceful disturbance Of
public worship in this locality, which vas
extensively copied and commented on by
our contemporaries. The melee began
about the time the second hymn was dying
away in the mountain echoes and The min,
lister Was preparing to hurl his thunder>
bolts against the citadel Of sin. The place
soon became sulphurous with the profan-
ity of the enragod participants, and the
air, outside and inside the house, was
stirred into weird and whizzing music -
From that time until recently the mis-,
s%ionary has but seldom rentured into the
portals Of this mountain fastnoss. But
God hunts out perishing souls wherever
they may b: and sends to them the light
and joy Of His ~wondrous revelation.
And now we have glorious things to

not owing to l%aziness or want of proper

rainy season. A large portion of those

aud most successful farmers in the coun-

committed the golden grain to the gen>
