Somehow the new silver dollars refuse t.
circulate. Aside from running round and
round to pay customs duties they seem to
accomplish very little. The Treasury has
bought 525 tons of silver, coined S. .972,-
1853, paid out for currency $40. 468. ex-
changed for gold s215, 1913, and paid out for
silver bullion 500. l69. The government
now has on hand s.. .J33 of the new
coinage, while the actual amount 10 circu-
lation is S2s, 900. The amount received
back by the Treasury is 1913 600. The
amount of silver certificates is $342 90.
The bullion owners themselves soon de
clined TO take the "dOllar Of the daddiesr
for the products of their mines. and a.
present the coin is a dead weight in the
Treasury vaults. What is quite as re.
markable as anything connected with the
subject is the fact that silver bullion has
deprecated in price since the silver bill
has passed.

In-and-In Breeding OF Cattle.

| lately called upon C. p. Morrison, of Ad.
olson, VT, to see his celebrated Devon cat
tie called the Royal Family. Twenty-Five
years ago he bought two cows; one was in
calf by an imported bull. She dropped
bull calf, and this was used upon his dam,
and the same COW bred the bulls used for
twelve years. This stock has been bred in
and-in during all this time, except one cross
from Devon bought in Batavia, n. Y, of
which only one heifer is now III the herd.
The present four-year old bull is excellent
in size, color, flesh and soft velvety skin.
You cannot conceive of any closer relation
ship than exists between the male and
females of this herd, yet apparently there is
no evil result in thus breeding. as cows,
heifers and calves, are thrifty. The cows
are extra mixers. have never seen herd
with such uniformly good milk mirrors.
One heifer, torty-six months old, has been
MIXED twenty months. He has ten females
and one bull his calves are engaged two
years ahead at good prices. ! have an i'm.
preston that in-and-in breeding is unsafe
Yet several instances of this practice have
come to my notice with favorable results.
Mr.. Morrison has a good flock of Merinoes,
and also has Berkshire pigs. During the
past ten years he has been trying to improve
his corn so that the ears will be large to the
tip, and have large kernels. 1t is eight
rowed corn, with ears about eight inches
long. When dried sixty-six pounds of ears
will give fifty-six pounds of corn and ten
pounds of cobs. z.E.J.

Fitting Lambs for Market.

We take the following from the Country
Gentleman: Early lambs must be forced
from the time they are dropped. In fact
there is something to be done even before
that, for the ewes must be fed so as to have
good flow of milk at the first, and any
one who does not know how to do this, and
does not care to be told, had best let sheep
husbandry alone, for this starting of the
milk is necessary in all cases. If ewes are
fed on poor dry hay and have no milk, they
will not care for the lambs, but often desert
them at once. 1t will not pay to raise a lot
of lambs in store condition to fatten when
they are three or four months old. They
should be fat all the time from their first
appearance. However, if lambs are healthy
but in light flesh, when May sets in, the only
way is to put ewes and lambs on some for
ward clover, grass or rye and move them
from one field to another, so as to have them
in fresh grass. and plenty of it all the while.
OF course some oilcake, oats, or any help of
that kind, will force them still more rapidly
and will pay well to be given, because in all
cases where the cake is eaten by animals
lying on the land, one-third of the cost can
be charged for the extra fertility given to the
soil. A very reprehensble practice like the
country A farmer has flock of ewes, and
when the time comes round for lambs to be
marketed butcher comes, and the sheep
are brought up to the homestead and he
handles them so as to pick out all that are
nice and fat. In about two weeks he calls
again and does the same, and so the summer
passes, when perhaps about tenth of the
lambs are left, being too thin for slaughter
ing, as they and their dams were too I'M
thrifty to become fit for market. These
lambs are kept in the flock, and the follow
ing year the eve lambs become young ewes,
the ram lambs having been killed for NUT
ton, excepting perhaps one that may remain
for use. This is no fancy picture; it has
been done yearly in hundreds of cases until
the lambs would not fatten and the hocks
became so worthless that sheep were given
up as not paying The right way to man.
age flock of sheep and have fat lambs is
to look the lambs over before the butcher
has seen them, and put about half of the
very best eve lambs away with their dams
and reserve them for breeding ewes, so that
a corresponding number of old ewes can be
fattened. By doing this every year the
flock will rapidly improve

The Why OF IL,

We are asked why it is, if we believe that
we may have better farming under a tenant
system than under ownership of land, we
object so strenuously to the change. The
enquirer seems TO see an inconsistency in
our desire for better agriculture, more knowl-
edge and more capital on the farm, and our
objections to a changein the tenure of land.
lie says he sees little difference, in regard
TO independence, between holding a farm
under mortgage and holding leased farm,
and that little difference, he thinks, is in
favor Of the lease-holder, especially if he is
a good farmer. He thinks also that while
farmer may have to pay eight or ten per cent
for money on mortgage he would never have
to pay rental Of over six per cent, while
he would be free from much anxiety, and
have what capital he possessed for use car.
rying on the farm.
All of these advantages we well under
stand, and yet we think we have sufficient
objection in this, that change in the tenure
of land from freehold to lease-hold means a
landed aristocracy and an end to genuine
liberty of the people. Under either system
our agriculture is sure to improve and while
it may improve more slowly under the pres
ent system, it is better to wait than to make
the change, or allow it 10 be made. As 10
the high rates of interest in contrast with a
low rental, this would regulate itself with
the repeal of the laws that give an undue
strength to capital. 1t is hard and SLOW
work TO reform the financial system of 1
country, especially when it must be re
organized upon an entirely new basis Blu

The Goal OF Drunkenness,

Is there not, too, an executioner of justice
told to wait upon drunkenness which would
cease to exist if drunkenness would cease to
exist; which is Gods warning against that
fearful intemperance against which senates
will not fight, and they who love their fellows
fight as yet in vain ? Have you ever seen
Gf not, may you never seeD young man
suffering from deiirium tremensF Have you
heard him describe its horrors-such as not
even Dante imagined in the most narrowing
scenes of his "lnferno, -" the blood red
suffusion before the eyes quenched suddenly
in darkness the myriads of burning, whirl-
ing, endless rings of concentric fire; millions
of foul insects seeming to weave their damp,
soft webs about the face; the bloated, hide
GUS ever-changing faces of their visions the

IiuuOr In Politics,

The Wine and Spirit Traders Society, it
appears, is disposed to take the liquor ques
ton into politics, 1t is understood that con-
ventions under its auspices are to be held
throughout the state, as part of plan of
action to defeat at the ensuing election can
didates for the legislature of this state who
are inimcal to the interests of the liquor
dealers. Especially will they seek to defeat
and punish the temperance members of the
last legislature who may be candidates for
reelection. If liquorsellers and manufac-
turers take for their arena of offensive oper-
atoms the caucus and the polls, we trust they
may be promptly and uncompromisingly
met and conquered in their chosen field by
the suffrages of temperance voters and all
good citizens.-N Y, Temperance Adpocdte.

dissatisfied masses will make so much trouble,
will keep business in such an unsettled state,
and make the further accumulation of wealth
so difficult, that the money power will at last
be worried into the necessary concessions.
This is the USE and the only use, so far as
we can see, of the agitation going on in re-
gard to this question. We do not expect
that the laboring men will devise true
system of finance, or that any of the agta-
tors, from Dennis Kearney to Wendell Phil
lips, will be able to put forward platform
free from crudites and absurdities But we
do expect that they will persist in agitating
the matter until the absolute necessity of
having some settlement in order that bust
ness may go on and again be profitable, will
force valuable and important concessions
from the money.holding class. A step will
thus be gained, agitation will subside, bust
ness revive, and another generation pass by
before another pinch will be followed by
more concession. That is the way progress
is worked out by the Anglo-Saxon race. 1t
never has been able to make theoretically
perfect system of administration. 1t only
grows out of one suit of governmental cloth
ing into another, larger and better, yet still
subject to wear, patching, and another re-
newal. IT, however, it should happen that
one governing class at present persists in
Bourbonic adhesion to their system of monop-
oily and class legislation until the whole
people are thoroughly stirred to the bottom,
as they were against slavery, we shall look
to see some very radical changes made in
short order. In this case the shortest cut,
though apparently it is not yet generally
perceived, will be the total abolition of the
legal credit system, and the retirement of
the government from all interference with
the pecuniary contracts of the people. This
would be a radical remedy, but it would be a
powerful solvent of all present perplexities

A Camping Fair.

The Oregon State Fair is to last week,
and provision is 10 be made for allowing at
tendants from distance to camp upon, or
near, the grounds. The admission ticket
for the whole week is two dollars, and
women aud children are admitted free
while all gambling games are excluded from
the premises This latter rule, we suppose,
is not intended to prohibit the agricultural
horse-trot, or the private betting on the re-
suit which always accompanies this demon
alizing exhibition. But the idea of camp
ing fair is good one, and perhaps some Of
the farmers of Vermont who are thinking
OF new departure In the matter of agri.
cultural fairs might take hint from 1t.
We like, too, the idea Of admitting women
and children free. The abolition of money
premiums is also getting TO be liked where

The Murphy Movement.

THE Christian Observer says The Muir
ply movement in Louisville, started about
Ave or six weeks ago, has met with great
success. With their motto ever in view,
With malice toward none, with charity
toward ALL and relying on the grace of God
to help them keep their pledge, about four
thousand have already signed, Among the
signers are large number, probably ma
jority of the police force aud of the fire de-
partment; aud the good work still goes
bravely on. Among those who have signed
are many, who in months past slept in the
gutter, and wrestled in vain with the demon
that was eating out their substance, who
are now resolved, with Gods help, never to
touch the intoxicant."
