Keep a few Sheep.

At least few sheep should be kept
eon every farm. No kind of stock Is
more profitable. In starting flock a
few superior animals should be chosen
instead of double the number of infe-
rior ones. The increased value of a
flock range from good sheep, Will
greatly exceed the increased cost Of n
few good ones to start with, over what
inferior ones would cost.
Start with good sheep and keep them
good or make them better, by gene
.rous keeping. Ifone intends to half
starye his sheep he might as well be

most likely hold their own than those

land depot as the midnight trains came in. They
had lot OF plumber similar to that captured ear

from La Sale. Opening communication with
La Sale, and that very efficient officer Murtha,
it was learned that Mr.. Thos. Drew's hardware
store at Lostant had been burglarized on
Thursday, and the men were held. On Tuesday
Mr.. Drew came to Ottawa and identified his prop.
erty He also recognized one OF the party, who
has been working for some time in the neighhor.

of times, and it is but justice to the prisoner to

Invariably furnished a irst-class item. His ope-

county, but extended through various states,
though one OF his best jobs is believed to have
been the Earlville bank robbery. He escaped
once from Mendoza Jail by drawing his night.

escaping during the confusion. From Colorado
penitentiary he escaped by painting the stripes
Of his clothes, ny which he succeeded In eluding

The New York Herald says of the Library o!
Useful Knowledge" solo by Osnan Hapeman
" The specially Of this edition is its cheapness,
which is certainly extraordinary, so that the pur
chaser will assuredly get the worth Of his money.
The text Of Chambers" is given without
change, so that the American additions often
take the form Of separate articles upon the same
subject as in the cases of Benjamin Franklin.
/. As this Library" certainly presents
the whole text Of Chambers admirable work,
with much more besides, it would be ungrateful
to ask greater amount OF useful knowledge
for the very moderate price demanded"
