FIRST CONTEST YESTERDAY FOR THE SELECTION
OF THE AMERICAN TRAM GOOD TURNOUT
AND FAIR PRACTICE.
According 10 previous announcement the nrst
contest lor the purpose OF selecting IN American
team to shoot the international return match
took place at Creedmoor yesterday There were
twenty rinemen on the ground, but only fifteen
contestants places on the team, as four OF the
gentlemen who shot yesterday stand ON their last
years. record, ana another Is ineligible, on ac-
count or birthplace. TO position on the team.
THE RANGE COMMITTEE.
whose names were published yesterday, were
very active and facilitated matters greatly by
their Judicious arrangements connected with the
distribution OF targets, manner OF collecting the
scores and numerous other details. Many OF the
old hands were out on the ranges before ten
O'Clock ana had an hours practice before the con-
test commenced. There was one important mat
ter, however, that seemed to have oeen omitted,
and perhaps the omission was due TO an over
slght-that Is, the weighing OF guns aud testing
OF trigger-pun. The rule Is that guns over ten
pounds weight ana having q trigger-pun OF
less than three pounds, are to ne excluded the
chances are that, as nearly all the guns used are
OF the same make (Remingtonl, they are within
the rules; nevertheless, the formaiity ought
to have been complied with. The weather during
the snooLng-between eleven A. NJ ana nVe
p. M.-was delightful. The wind, which pie"
from southwest by south. was banning ana IN
certain at times during the practice. This, IN
some measure, may account Tor the only moder-
atey good scores recorded by some Of our amol-
tious young ridemen. The best score made yes
terday-that OF General DaKln-Is up 70 tine
average Of what achieved by the last
years. team IN their inltatorV pracIlce. Inc
General mas bettered his corresponding score OF
last years preparatory match by Jour points.
Wnen IL is considered that each rlnem3n burned
az least forty-nYe rounds oil ammunition yesrer
day. behind the trying recoh resulting rom
nlnety-ave grains OF nne powder, me tiresome
strain on nerve, muscle and eye must be con-
ceded as something extremely taxing on mans
power oil endurance.
Among the non-contestants were noticed Gen.

Messrs. Afford ana hennson and NUMBER OF
other gentlemen.

prepared to speak positively and from ex-
rerience OF the dangers that beset the nov
ice.
As to the breed. the best sheep TO intro
duce into Kansas is the common native
stock Of Missouri, and the west. Ii such
stock be crossed with good merino rams,
the progeny will possess most OF the vaiu-
able qualities of the merino, combined with
great hardihood. The valuable qualities
OF merinos are, briefly, heavy feeces, and
their gregarious habits. Merinos keep In
close, compact fiocks, whereas the long
woods tend TO wander far and wide. sheep
brought into Kansas ought never TO arrive
late in the season, but the purchases should
be made so that they can be shipped I'M
mediately sf.er shearing, arriving here
while the grass Is vet tender and juicy.
We find that neglect in this matter is one
OF the commonest causes OF failure. The
sheep after their long journey from the
east are generally weak and debilitated,
and If in addition TO this they have
TO contend with our variable climate
and fodder that is dry and harsh,
| numbers are certain 10 tall.
Then in purchasing sheep be sure you
! have the best. Eastern farmers who have
"a few for sale" almost invariably have
| worthless culls and "broken mouthed" ewes
alone to dispose OF. Get young sound
sheep, even if you have TO pay extra
prices or purchase whole fiocks. have in
| nv mind Colorado gentleman, who, three
years ago, brought into that territory 1900
ewes. two-thirds of which were broken
| mouthed. The first winter he lost 200 Of
these sheep.
II sheep are brought into this State in
the proper time and condition, and if after
thew are here they are well fed, and well
| cared for every way, we believe that there
is no business in the State that will pay as
| well for the capital invested.
