kEEP SHEEP.-At leas, few sheep
should be kept on every farm. No Kind of
stock is more profitable In starting q fock
few superior animals should be chosen in
stead Of double the number Of inferior ones.
The increased value Of flock raised from
good sheep. will greatly exceed the increas-
ed cost Of few good ones to start with.
over what inferior ones would have cost
Star, with good sheep and keep them good
or make them better. by generous keeping
If one intends to half starye his sheep he
might as well begin with half-s,arved ones.
as they would be more likely to hold their
own than those used TO better keeping.
Strengthening, however. is not profitable
when the starving process is adopted, and
wewould not recommend it TO farmers who
practice any such methods. When good
sheep are purchased to start with and are
well kept, strengthening is profitable. bene-
fetal 10 the farm, and is TO be commended.

Let any one who has the care Of horse
these cold frosty mornings, deliberately
grasp in his hand piece of iron; indeed, let
him touch it to the tip end of his tongue. ana
then let him thrust the bit into the mouth of
his horse if he has the heart to do it. The
horse is an animal of nervous organization.
His mouth is formed of delicate glands and
tissues. The temperature of the blood is
the same as in human being and, as in man
the mouth is the warmest par, of the body
Imagine, We repeat. the irritation that would
be caused the human, and consider that, il
not in the same degree. still the suffering of
the poor animal was very great. And i, Is
not momen;ary pain Food is eaten with
difficulty. and the irritation, repeated day
after day, causes loss of appetite and loss of
strength Many horse has become worth
less from no other cause than this.-[E1.

Ee..ess rem u. Best Mixers.

We think all the best dairymen are
agreed in regard to the profit Of raising their
own cows to supply additions to their herds.
Very few have ever selected valuable herd
wholly by purchase. 1t has been said that
if total depravity can ever be alleged against
a farmer. it is found in his representation
on the .ale Of COWS. We have often enum-
Grated the important points in favor of home
raised cows and one of the mos, impor-
tant is the opportunity of selecting the heif
er calves from the best mixers, both for
quantity and quality. If the dairyman gives
no heed to this point. he will perpe:uate his
worthless cows with his good ones, and
thus never improve his dairy herd. A large
majority Of dairymen have cows in their
herds that do not pay their keeping and as
the, do not apply test to the individual
cows, they continue not only TO keep them.
but TO breed from them. This is the mos,
suicidal policy. Although we strongly
recommend dairymen to raise their own
cows. We are far from a,ising them to
pcrpetua'e their poor cows. Il would be
better policy to give them away TO favor
ite brother in-law. The heifer calves from
only the best cows should be raised. and the
wedding out should 60 on .ull further.

the gist of this whole subject. Here is
where this matter of cooking may be. and is.
carried too far. Making the food more
soluble, by the process of cooking, SO that
it can be more easily swallowed-the re-
quisite amount of salird to assist digestion
is no, supplied The stomach, like every
other organ, needs exercise to keep up its
energy and healthy action. Hence it is. that
those articles of food, the most soluble, or
the most easily diges,ed, no, always are the
most wholesome.
Say YOU. ''if cooked food is not the bet
ter for beast, VII, is it for man ?" Endow
man with the pdunch of an OK and learn him
to "ehew the cud," and it is not.

IMPORTS DANGEROUSLY LARGE.

The imports last week were dangerously
large, amounting in value to $12,797, 557.
This has been exceeded only once for seven
years; in the week ending March the value
was $13.S7S, 046. In one other week, the one
ending April II, the imports were S12 ,2I3, 70S,
and in eight other weeks this year the value
has exceeded $11, 100000. Very large i'm
ports at this time are particularly unfavorable
because the exports of breads.ufs have been
checked by the indsposition of producers to
sell at present prices. From September / to
IL, inclusive, the exports of wheat were only
1851, 26O bushels against 10, $50, 521 bushels
last year, although the price at NewYork
was 5i2 cents lower. AT Chicago and
NJ lwaukee, too, the receipts OF wheat dur
ipp the first half OF SeDtemDer were less thaa
one third the quantity received during the
same weeks last year. Corn receipts and tx
norris. il i, true, are little larger than they
were last year, and the prce is 3 cents
higher. But the gain in that respect is COM
uaratiyely so small that the exports of do
nestle products must fall materially below
those of last year m value until the free move
