THE Lynchburg tirginian thus de
scrIbes an ingenious trap devised by a
NirgiaSa farmer to cap,ure sheep kill
ing dogs. Having suffered from the
leprcdations Of dogs upon his sheep
fold, he built around q number Of
sheep that the dogs had killed an in
closure of rails twelve feet high and
about ten feet square At the ground, the
sides Of the trap sloping inward until
an opening was LETT about five feet
square. Any dog could easily climb
such a sloplng fence and enter the pen,
but not even a greyhound could jump
out Of it. In three nights the farmer
captured forty-six dogs, including ht-
teen or twenty that had never been
seen before in that neighborhood.-
This, after there had been a public
slaughter of all dogs suspected of
sheep killing, save one, whose master
could not be convinced of bis guilt.
The trap was built for his especial bene-
ct and it caught him the first night.

The length of the railroads built in
the United States in the year ending
April |, 1881, was GLIB miles, twice
the mileage of the preceding IL months.
AtS25,000 mile, these railroads would
cost 1852, 100000, or about three times
the increase in the New York say ings
banks deposits in 1880. SO that the sum
sunk, large as it is, represents only
fraction of the surplus earnings of the
country; but unfortunately the greater
share of this surplus is spent on objects
which make no return, these railroads
absorbing large proportional share of
the industrial fund of the country which
goes to improve It's producing capacity.
Railroads do this eventually, but not at
the start, and for some time to come the
money invested is sunk as far as the
first investors are concerned.

WOOL.

In the wool market there has been
decided improvement the past week. es-
pecially in fine feeces, and prices of all
kinds are higher and have touched bot
tom for the present. Manufacturers
have been free purchasers and are tax
ing all available lots of old wool offer
ing the advance in Xxx Ohio and Penn
sylvania feeces having been 2 to 2 IL
cents per pound from the lowest point.
That is, good average feeces which were
sold during the past ten days at 40 cts.
per pound are now in demand at AZ to
AZ l-2 cts. and there are very few de-
sirable lots that could not be bought ex-
cept at an advance On these figures. In
other kinds of wool the advance has not
been so marked, but there is a better
feeling for all kinds, and for the next
month or two we look for more or less
excitement, although we feel that it
would be better for the trade if manufac-
turers and dealers moved cautiously, as
an advance of cent on the seaboard is
generally followed by an advance of 2
to 3 cents in the interior, and buyers at
this season of the year in the interior
are always sure to find their margin
against them.
AS usual at this season of the year,
there is considerable said about the con-
dition Of the clip, and farmers are urged
to take the greatest care in preparing
their wool for the market.
In de laine and combing wool very
little has been done, and we only notice
sales of 5000 pounds fine de laine at 43
cents, $4,000 pounds new Kentucky
combing at price not public, 10000
pounds unwashed combing at % to 80
cents, the latter price for $4,000 pounds
unwashed Pennsylvania. The move
ment in eombing wool is now principal
ly in the interior. and quotations here
are for the most part nominal. In un-
washed and understandable feeces the
business has been large and comprises
| 776,5O0 pounds of all kinds.
Pulled woods continue in demand and
prices are quite steady and firm. The
sales of the week have been 335, 1000
pounds at % IL to As cents per pound
for super and X, largely in the range Of
81 to 45 cents per pound. Choice East.
ern and Maine supers are held firm, and
