found. Instead of building a fancy dwelling
the past year they have devoted their time
to the Improvements of their ranch. Their
barn has been built to two storyS IN helght,
doubled its former length and shielded on
the sides, making sufficient room for their
entire flock. Their pastures haye increased
from one small one of Il year ago to several
large fields and they are still being widened.
One of the most useful contrivances for
farm use that / have seen in my travels this
summer is owned by these gentlemen. 1t
is a water-powel machine with which they
facture shingles tor the roofs of their sheds,
stables and dwelling. They started in the
business of breeding fine sheep two years
ago with only seventy-eight head OF thor
ougllbred ewes. Owing to their flock hav-
ing Iust been imported the increase was
light the first season. The coming season.
however, their increase will be over 100
lambs. OF last springs lambs nearly all
were bucks. These, except twenty head,
they have sold at good figures. One OF
these lambs, though probably a little above
the average, weighed after two weeksserrice
l46 poNnds. British Prince, the header OF
the flock, appears to have improved in size
and looks within the last year. He is a per-
feet mate to- the celebrated Gloster Chief.
now owned by Nhessrs- John Thomas and
Phillip Evans Of Deer lodge county. Thus
far the business has proved so very s%alisfac-
tory to the proprietors that they have deter
mined to import a considerable number
of fine Sheep from the East the coming
summer. WILL.

Royal Visits to the British Museum.
IThe university Magazine.l


l am indebted to my friend, Sir Henry
Ellis, for the anecdotes, for the truth of
which he was able to youch. Queen
Charlotte sent one of her household to
arrange for her visit to this wonder of
the world, and when he had settled
preliminaries, he desired to be shown
through the rooms which her majesty
would pass. When he was conducted
through the gallery Of Greek and Ro-
man antiquities, which the Queen spe-
cially desired to see, he exclaimed, "Oh
this will never dol Her majesty will
be shocked beyond measure. Can moth
ing be done?" The authorities after a
long consultation, sent for tinman in
Oxford-street, aud gave him an order
for the requisite number of tin fig leaves
which were to be painted green. 1t un-
fortunately happened that the queen
arrived before the whole of the order
was executed, and the only resource in
such dilemma was to tie ON the fig
leaves to as many statutes on each side
as there were leaves, and as her mai
esty passed statute the fig-leaf was de-
tached and carried further down the
line, and this was dexterously managed
by persons stationed behind each line Of
statutes that her majesty's delicacy was
preserved from the shock it would other
wise have sustained.

ITEMS FOR FIELD AND HOUSE.

CORN bread: One cup of hominy; boil
it and stir in some Indian meal; add a
teacup of milk, one egg, piece of but
ter half as large as an egg; then make
it as thick as pound cake with Indian
meal. Then comes the secret. Bake it
uick to a light brown color
SHAKER bread: Take half the flour
(unbolted) you intend using and pour
on boiling milk (be sure it boils), and
have it about the consistency of batter
that you would have for making pam
cakes; let this stand till cool enough to
work, then knead in the rest of your
-four just sufficiently stiff to mold on a
board. One hour in middling hot
oven is sufficient for baking.
SQUASH fritters: One pint cooked
and well-mashed squash, one pint of
milk, two eggs and a little salt; add
flour, to make the batter stiff enough to
turn on the griddle, and not too thick.
The addition of teaspoonful of baking
powder will tend to make them lighter
bake on a griddle as pour-cakes. This is
delicious dish. The surplus squash of
dinner can thus be economically used
for breakfast.

OUGHT HORSES TO BE SHoD?-Th
London Lancet says: The question
whether horses should, or should not, b.
shod, is again under discussion. No
only is the mode of attaching them b,
nails injurious to the hoof, but it is tn
probable, if not the evident, cause o
many affections of the foot and leg
Whether horses could work on our road
without some protection is anothe
question. We think it would be foun,
that the natural structure would adap
itself to any ordinary requirement.
There is, however, wide difference @
opinion upon this point among authori
ties ON horse management, and tn
