SHEEP.

At a meeting of the Union County IN. ~
Farmers Club, Mr.. Ludlow said his father
and he had always kept sheep or their place.
He considered them profitable. 1t is gener-
ally estimated that for capital Invested, and
expense of keeping, seven sheep are about
equal to oNe,c COW. Their manure is very
strong and valuable; one shovel full is
worth five or six of that from cows and
horses. They do best when they can have
a change of pasture now and then, so that
it is best to have two lots. | think the
Southdowns are the best breed for our pur-
pose. | once made an effort with the Lei
cester breed, to see how long ] could, by
.jndicious crossing, get the wool to grow,
and succeeded in producing some thirteen
inches long. long wool sheep do not gen.
orally produce good lambs. Some Of my
best sheep shear ten pounds OF wool in a
season. For us, twenty to thirty sheep pay
better in proportion than one or two hum
dred.-Dnigo Rural.

BLEEDING CARRIAGE HORSES.

There is always a demand in st. Louis for
large, stylish. housekeeping, well-bred car
riage horses. They are nearly as scarce as
hen's teeth in our markets. 1t is the. most
promising field that opens to the breeder of
horses at this time. Such horses are wanted
to drive on our fine avenues, in our parks,
at our fair grounds, and everywhere. And
such horses are not only in demand in
double teams for carriages, but for baroncll-
es, buggies, or ever drays and carts-for
such horses fill.every bill nearly that a horse
can be used tor. And such siZe-say six
teen hands and over-is. not incompatible
with very great speed, as such horses us
Smuggler, Rarus, Great Eastern, Gloster,
and others indicate, all being over sixteen
hands and we'll proportioned. Mares Of
good size and style and breeding, and stall
lions still better than the mares, are what
are wanted. Those who are breeding this
way will nave no cause to regret it.-Rural
