Sheep Must Be Kept Thrifty.

When the right sheep have been
put in the right place, it will be
necessary to bear in mind that every
check they receive--as from want OF
food, exposure to extreme tempera-
ture, unsuitable pasture, or whatever
else may stop thriving-will not
only check the growth of the wool,
bat will cause weak place in it.,
which will break in the hands of the
wool-sorters, and greatly reduce the
value of the fleece. To grow good
wool of any kind, the sheep must be
kept thriving. And one cardinal
rule must always be borne in mind,
namely, that the most valuable wool
and the most valuable mutton cannot
be produced on the same sheep

i Rich Mans Great Regret.

Mr.. Packers one great regret, dur
ing his long and active life, was that
he had not had the advantage of an
education in his youth. 1t was his
sense Of his own deficiencies in this
respect that prompted him to be so
liberai iii his gifts to religious and
educational establishments, and es-
pecially to the foundation and en-
dowment Of Lehiyh university-a
thoroughly equipped institution,
where lads of Intelligence and good
conduct can obtain a first-rate col
legiate or technical education at a
merely nominal expense. This uni
versity will be his best monument,
and it viii continually remind tbs
beneficiaries of the virtues of its
founder, and keep his life and career
before them as an example to be i'm
itated.-[ Philadelphia Bulletin.

Stock for Profit on the Farm.

Stock raising has always been the
most profitable feature of mixed
farming among the masses. Now it
is much more SO, with this one con-
dition, that the stock raised for
profit must be of improved blood.
Scrub stock no longer pays at the
present prices, nor does it pay as
well to sell the farm products as to
feed them to good stock. Then
good stock is what farmers want,
not fine or fancy stock, but stock
judiciously graded up, improved ev-
cry year by breeding only to thor
oughb,ed males. Such stock ma
lures earlier, grows larger, makes
better meat, and sells for more mon
ey than scrub stock on the same
feed. Although the price of stock
is very low, the remedy is to raise
better quality that natures quicker
and commands the best price.
One of our exchanges gives the
following reasons why system of
mixed farming, which includes the
raising of stocks largely, is surer
and at the same time more profita-
BILE, that thus the farm is kept up to
its original fertility, and often to in
creased fertility. These farmers
never make an entire failure in
crops, however bad the season. His
fat stock give him cash returns
twice year, if necessary, once ir
the spring from winter feeding and
again in the autumn pasturage: In
the case of sheep this gain is added
to by the wool sold in the summer.
His diary and poultry yard will
furnish no small sum during the
spring, summer and autumn. The
milk, butter and cheese, and a we'll
kept vegetable garden, will furnish
one-half the living Of the family.
These rules, as stated, are general
ones. They will apply to all Sec
tons of the country, north, east:
south and west, being modified only
by climate conditions and the adapt
alton of certain animals and plants
to climate. The rule will apply
always. The farmer who raises the
greatest variety of crops or animals
which his soil is capable of sustain
ing, is, all things considered, the
best and most successful.-[W

A Time for Investing in Short. Horns.

In general way, we all admit that
it is safe rule to buy when prices
are unusually low, and to sell when
prices are unusually high; that it is
often wise to engage in business
which will be permanent one, bua'
which is suffering depression at the
time. But men often find it difficult
to apply this rule. The course of
events In regard to Short-horn cattle
is a good illustration. During the
times of very high prices for cattle of
this breed, many men undoubtedly
made serious misunderstanding
much more money in them than
they could afford to spare from their
other business. 1t was not uncom-
mon then to find men complaining,
i'll public and private, Of the high
prices, claiming to have high APP
preciafion of the breed and to be
willing, even anxious, to make pur-
chases at any reasonable figures.
When the time of depression came
to the Short-horn interest-when
prices fell to what must be admitted
by all impartial observers to be low
rates-then some men, in very rare
cases, went about proclaiming that
they "always knew the whole thing
was humbug," and refused to buy
at prices one-half less than they had
set down as reasonable.
There is now large densand for
Short horn cattle. Many farmers are
availing themselves of the unusually
good oportunity for improving their
cattle by purchasing at least a bull
for crossing on their common COWS.
But many others are reg'ecting this
oportunity Such viii do we'll to re-
member that Short-horns have all the
intrinsic excellence they ever had;
that good grade Short-horn steerwill
grow and fatten as rapidly, and sell
at, correspond:nglv, as good prices,
compared with those obtained for in
ferior stock, as they did in ''flush
times"
No intelligent man believes there
is danger of the Short-horns ccasing
t. be one of the leading and most
valuabld breeds of cattle-at least
not in the lifetime of the present
generation Of farmers. No good
judge of cattle, however much he
may prefer some other breed, denies
the very great Improvement made
by the use of good Short-horn blood,
and now is peculiarly favorable
time for commencing or continuing
this improvement, instead of cont;n-
u:ng to breed ''scru6s. .''-t Nat. Live

of the snake variety This little
cactus is covered thickly with min

the cactus so attractive and SO delic-
ious to the average mouse that he
will devour it, and the thorns stick
in his throat and periorate his stom-

An Act Of Congress, approved
March Sd, last, provided that all
Homestead and Presumption claim
ants must give thirty days notice Of
their intention to make final proof
before they can be permitted to do
so. The notice must be given to the
Register of the local Land Office.
The notice must be published week
ly FIVE times in the paper published
nearest the land and must state the
name of the claimant, describe the
land and give the names and resi-
dences of the witnesses.
These requirements will materially
change the practice and all parties
who expect to make final proof, eth
er Homestead or Pre-Emption,
should bear the new law in mind.
1t will be useless expenditure of
time and money to take witnesses to
the Land Office until after due nc
tice has been given.
THE FOLLOWING IS THE LAW.
An act to provide additional reg
ulations for homestead and pre-emp-
ton entries of public lands:
Be 1t enacted by the Senate and
House Of Representatives Of the Uni.
ted States Of america IN Congress
Assembled, That before final proof
shall be submitted by any person
claiming to enter agricultural lands
under the laws providing for pre-
emption or homestead entries, such
person shall file with the register of
the proper land office a notice of his
or her intention to make such proof,
stating therein the description of
lands to be entered and the names of
the witnesses by whom the necessary
facts will be established.
Upon the filing of such notice the
register shall publish a notice that
such application has been made, once
week for the period of thirty days,
in newspaper to be by him desig-
mated as published nearest such
land: and he shall also post such no.
tice in sumo CONSPICUOUS place in his
Office for the same period. Such no
tice shall contain the names of the
witnesses as stated in the applica-
ton. At the expiration of SAID time
of thirty days the claimant shall be
entitled to make proof in the manner
heretofore provided by law. The
secretary of the interior shall make
all necessary rules for giving effect
to the foregoing provisions. Ap-
proved March 8, 1879.
