There was a Patent Corn Erad
lcatOr man in town the other dav
hnt his trip was al utter failure.
Money is scarce, and people here
don't go much on patent specifies.
Therefore, when this man had
walked about for three or four
honrs IN the heat Of the day. with
out making even one sale, it is
natural to suppose that he was
aisgusted.
He WAS not one Of yOnr one
horse 'lesmen either, was OF the
cheeky never-let go species, aud
it is only surprising that he did
not succeed in palming off few
bottles of his nOstrum on some of
onr unsopllisticated.
AS he walked towards the fer>
ry landing, he had the appearance
Of man that was pretty well
used up. The conciousness of
his failure. and the fact that he
was poorer hy twenty-five cents,
than when he put foot on Gre:na
soil, no doubt, did more to affect
his ieeIin IS, and produce a look OF
detection, than did f.,,igne.
He WAS sitting on the ferry
house bench awaiting the arrival
OF The ferry boat, and musiny on
the uncertainty of human affairs
when old uncle Alb made his ao-
pparance. The Era1icator man'S
face frightened up as he looked
at uncle Abs colossal understand

cents. and tew applications

you would feel ike a young ma,

WORKING HORSES WITHOUT SHOES.

Many of our exchanges. both in this coun-
try and England, have wasted II great
amount of space in discussing the feasibili-
ty of working horses without shoes. If
those engaged in this discussion had been
practical men, they would have known that
il is a point which cannot be settled in the
newspapers, nor anywhere else. Some
horses can work without shoes, willie 9TH
ers cannot. A horse that can go barefooted
with impunity OF the soft dirt roads of our
fiat Western prairies, when taken to the film
ty hills of New England will need shoes.
Most horses can do the work Of the farm in
the summer season without shoes; but
when the hard, frozen and icy roads Of win
ter have to be encountered, no horse can
keep his footing and draw a load without
them. Horses with fiat feet, and shelly,
brittle hoofs, must be kept shod all the
time, if used on the road, while one with u
hard, f1inty hoof, on q concave base, can
well go most of the time without shoes, un-
less he be put to heavy drawing or slippery
roads. 1t is a question that must be decid-
ed upon for each horse Independently and
the character of the hoof, the shape of the
foot, the uses to which the horse is put, and
the roads he travels upon, all enter into the
problem. Ii his boots don't break away so
as to make his feet sore, and il he can keep
his footing so as to do his work easily, he
don't need shoeing. If the reverse is true,
he must be shod. and that is Ill there is of it.

THE 0 DEFICIT.

1t lsestimated that the total wool clip of
1877 amounted to about 1.497 SOC, 900 lbs.
The wool product OF 1878 falls considerably
short OF this. Australia, for instance, comes
in with a deficit of about 1000. 900 ~tleeces,
which, at the low average OF three pounds
per fleece, is equivalent to $4,000. 900 Tbs.
California in 1877 had something over 81
000, 900 Tbs. less than in 1876. This year the
Pacific States show q deficit of about 8 per
cent. on she clip of1s77. The Texas clip
shows an increase, In New England and
the three north Middle States there is a de
crease of about 5 per cent, while there is q
slight increase--say from | to 4 per cent
in the remaining states. Notwithstanding
the deficit, wool does not advance in price.
Manufacturers claim that there is yet II SUR
plus Of reproduction over the demands for con-
sumption. and that any great advance can
not yet be looked for.

SoME of our farmers by this time begin to
realize the truth of our statement at the be-
ginning of winter in regard to the manage
anent Of their stock. Needless of our nu
merous warnings they sailed forth in early
fall and rounded up their stock and turned
them in their enclosure, for tear a y~earling
or two would stray from the accustomed
range, and a few more days be required in
the spring in gathering them up. The con-
sequence is, in most cases, the feed inside
the fields is all gone, and the stock must
now go to the commons tor a living. This
they are 10th to do, having been k~eptabout
the farm all Writer till the severest weather
is at hand; and the amount of it is they
will not go unless driven. 1t is a short
sighted policy and we think those who have
participated in it for the past half dozen
years would at last see the error of their
way. The losses that have occurred to the
herds of Montana in winters past. have been
caused principally by this course of man
agement. We rarely or never hear O flosses
among the herds on our frontiers, where the
stock are not molested after the frost be-

has feed wherein for his herd to subsist it
will do to get them up at the beginning of
winter, but not one in twenty who engage
in the practice is thus prepared; and even
the stock of those who are prepared to feed,
do not do any better than that upon the
wild range, while that of those who have
teed for only about half the winter become
scrubby and runty, and more or less of
them die. The farmers Of many OF our
thickly settled valleys would do we'll ever
ut this late day to drive their cattle to some
frontier valley, or to the foot hills and let
them rustic; it is much better than keep
ing them around on half r%ations.

THE recent cattle shows in England have
been fairly successful as to the numbers Of
animals brought together. At the Birming-
ham cattle show l22 cattle, 10 sheep and 70
pigs were entered. There was II decided
gain In the weights of cattle shown, the
heaviest at last years show having been %
cwt., 2 qrs. and IL fbs., while this year there
were four which exceeded that weight.
while the heaviest turned the scale at 26
cwt., ! Or, II lbs.
