CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDlEGs.
sECoNp BRANCH.

An informal meeting of the two
branches of the City Council was held
last night, for the purpose OF talking over
the manner of celebrating the Centennial
Fourth. Mayor Sweeney was called TO
the chair. About an hour was occupied
in the discussion of various subjects, after
which the two branches organized and
proceeded TO the transaction Of business.
The roll was called and the following
members answered to their names: Beltz,
Erskine, Goering. Hanson, Kingdom,
Long, Myles, McGsw, McCourtney, Pol
lock, Pryor, Beltz, Travis, Wilkinson,
Werner, Mr.. President.
The following resolution was offered
by Mr.. Hanson:
WHEREAS, tsppears proper and right
that the people Of the city of Wheeling
should make a proper demonstration on
the 4th of July; therefore, belt
Resolved, That committee OF three
members from each Branch be appointed
1.-THE Mayor of the city to act as chair
man to make all necessary arrangements
to celebrate the said day.
Resolved, That sum not exceeding
81 500 be appropriated and placed in the
hands of said committee for defraying
all the expenses, they to account Ior the
same to council.
The first resolution was adopted, only
one member, Mr.. Beltz, voting against 1t.
An amendment substituting 81 600 for
81 500, in the second resolution was vot-
ed down, after which the original resolu.
ton was adopted.
A petition was received from num-
Der of gentlemen residing on Main street
between Ninth and Tenth streets, asking
that the Improvement Of Main street,
from Tenth street up to Ninth street, be
continued. The petitioners set forth that
the improvement of said street as desired
by them will only require the moving OF
the curbstone out about three feet; the
grade of said street being as good as
could be desired. They also believe that
the cobble stones taken up will almost
pay for the improvement asked for. The
petition was referred to the committe on
Streets and Alleys.
Messrs. Hanson, Myles and Reitz were
appointed upon the committee on Fourth
of July Celebration on the part ofSecond

cRoss-BREEDING FOWLS.
l think for ordinary fowl breed
ing mongrel, or cross-breed fowls,
are as good, and sometimes better,
than the pure breeds. Take, for in
stance the Brahmas and cross them
on natives or other breeds, and they
make q fowl in most cases that are
large enough fer the table aud ex-
celent LAYERS. Such Brah1as as we
see at fairs, pullets weighing from
. 70 10 pounds,are not of much value
except to be eaten. They are raised
expressly to be exhibited and look
cd ut, aud IL bought to breed from
their progeny would be much infe-
rIor, in most cases, TO the pampered
and stuffed parents. A pullet eight
months old, which weighs dressed
about five pounds, is large enough,
aud the Brahmas and Cochins cross
ed on any of the smaller breeds of
fowls will produce pullets when
full grown of that weight. Take q
light Brahma cock and put him with
pnllets of any native fowls, and the
cross will result in q splendid Vari-
city not breed-because the pro-
geny of such fowls will not pro-
daoe their like, but they may be
I bred in-and-in for five years to an
advantage, when q cock from some
other strain of blood, Int of the
original breed, would be desirable.
A cross of pure Brahma cock on
Leghorn or Hamburger pullets
would also produce fine fowls. In
deed, no small breed of fowls can
be selected for such crOss without
good producing fowls.
TIE BEST SHEEP FOR FARMERS.
Farmers should breed sheep that
produce heavy fleeces, and which
are large fattsD easily, and sell read
lily 10 the butcher. There are thou
sands of sheep KEEP: in every State
in the Union that do not shear over
fOur or five pounds, and coarse at
that, while well-bred Merinos will
range from 10 to 20 pounds, and
Cotsw0lds often exceed these fig
Hrea. There is but one way TO
make money in breeding sheep in
these times, and that is TO
sell all of your scrubs" to the
butcher at any price he will give,
and buy MerineS, Cotswolds, or
Sonthdowns, the latter being the
finest mutton in the world. A Keep
lucky stock breeder says: "What
is true in regard to the improved
breeds OF cattle, horses, hogs and
poultry. In the face of these indis-
PUiable facts the people should not
handle scrub stock, and entertain
an ignorsnt opposition to fine
breeds. There il one supreme rea-
SON for this. The mass of people do
not read papers devoted to live
stock interests, and are wholly ig-
n0rant OF the vast progress that ia
being made by the more intelligent
ranks OF farms. There are sections
of Kentucky where the improved |
breeds Of stock are almost I'M
known. 1T is only small number |
of men who are alive to it, and |
keep themselves thoroughly posted |
in regard to the progress of agri-
cultural science and the breeding |
of the best animals, while the mass
es remain in the old ruts, follow
ing after the customs of q hundred |
years ago. If farmers would ele-
vAtc their calling and render 1t
more remunerative, they must put
Themselves in living connection
with the intellectual spirit of the
age"
