SibIey's Farmers Almanac.

There are almanacs and almanacs. One of
the best we have seen is before us. 1t contains
valuable essays, giving the results of the latest
experience in the culture of special crops. "Po-

England Fdrme.', gives the history and habits
of growth Of this important plant, describes
the best soils, preparation of the land, fertiii-
zers. seeding, cultivation, and all about how TO
get big crops. DIR. Geo. B. Loring, L. S.
Commissioner of Agriculture, has an interest
ing essay on "Root Crops" l.. s. Carman,
editor Rural Neao Yorker, writes on "Oaion
Culture;" the soil, preparation seed ard seed
ing; cultivation, etc. Prof. w. Beal, of the
Michigan Agricultural College, has an inter-
esting article on Grasses for Meadows Pas
lures and Lawns" This is, perhaps, the most
practical paper which has ever been written on
this subject in this country, as it details the
actual experience of Prof. Beal, in careful
trials of various new and old sorts of grasses.
o. b Galusha, Secretary of he Illinois Agrl-
cultureal Society, tells all about Cabbage

NEW YORK, 1893.

= NJ IRE people have read The SUN during tlt
year just now passing than ev ;r before since il
was first printed. No other uewsI aper pub
lishcd On this side of the eaith has been
bought and read in any year by so many men
ana women.
We are crcdlbly informed that people buy
read, and like THE SUN for the following
reasons, among others:
Because its news columns present i'm attrac
tive form and with the greatest possible ac
curacy whatever has interest for humankind
the events, the deeds and misJceds the wisdom,
the philosophy, the notable folly. the solid
sense, the improving nonsense.all the news OF
the busiest world at present revolving in space.
Because people have Earned that in its re-
marks concerning persons aud affairs The Sun
makes a practice of telling them the exact
truth 10 the best of its ability three hundred
aud sixty five days in the year, before election
as well as alter, about the " hales as well as
abDut the small fish, in the face of dissent as
plainly and iearlessly as when supported BY
general ap; roval THE sun has absolutely no
purposes to serve, save the information of its
re RS and the furtherance or the common
good.
Because it is everybody's newspaper. No
man is SO humble that THE SUN is indifferent
to his welfare and his rights. No man is so
rich that it can allow injustice to be done him.
No man, no association of men, is powerful
enough TO he exempt from the strict application
of its principles of right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for a doz IN
years, without intermission and sometimes
almost alone among newspapers, the fight that
has resulted in the recent overw helming p0pu-
lar verdict against Robesonisn and for honest
government. No matter what party is in
power, The Gun stands and will continue to
stand like rock for the interests OF the people
against the ambition OF bosses, the encroach-
ments of monopolists, and the dishonest
schemes of public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily by
our friends. One man holds that The SUN is
the best religious newspaper ever published.
because its Christianity is undiluted with cant.
Another Lolds that il is the best Republican
newspaper printed, because il has already
whipped half the rascals out of that party, and
is proceeding against the other half with undi-
minished vlgor, third believes it to be the
best magazine of general literature in existence,
because its readers miss nothing worthy OF
notice that is current in the world of thought.
So every friend of THE SUN discovers one of its
many sides that appeals with particular force to
his individual liking.
II you alreads know THE SUN, you will OBJ
serve that in 1883 it is little better than ever
before. If you do not already know THE SUN,
you Will find it to be q mirror of all human
activity, storehouse of the choicest products
of common sense and imagination, q mainstay
for the cause OF honest government, sentinel
for genuine Jeffersonian Democracy, u scourage
for wickedness of every species, and an uncom
monty good investment for tie coming year.

The age of sheep up to four wear

= :; The age of sheep up to four years
old is readily ascertained from the
mouth: They put two large teeth in
the center of the lower jaw, casting
two sucking teeth at about twelve
months old They put up two more
large teeth each of the next three years,
making at four years old full mouth
of eight large teeth. These soon be-
come gappy and worn, especially when
sheep are fed on whole roots.

SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENTS The
guiliotine has commenced work in this
department, and there is some regret
and indignation among the parties and
teachers. We are inclined to think We
shall have a nice mess of this great de-
partment of public instruction. There
is an evident dread among the people
that the appointments will be so entire
ly political, and that 80 little regard
will be paid to the mental and moral
qualifications as we'll as educational &C
quirements of the new appointees, that
the system will fall into contempt, and
that good officers and teachers cannot
be procured. We never have believed
that Malone and his leaders cared five
cents for the public schools, and that
they win fill the whole department with
their cheapest off1ce-seekers. This Is
the danger, and we hope it may be in
some way averted.-Lymchburg Ad-

Why WingfleId Winged his Way to
Malone.

Much astonish ment has been ex-
pressed that Senator Wingfeld should
have gone over to the Malone caucus
and against Massey, after he had stuck
out 80 long in favor of what he declared
he believed to be right. The modus
operondi by which this unexpected
somersault was effected, has been sug-
gested to us by friend, and it is simply
this:
Mr.. Huntington, the Railroad King, is
pushing bill in his railroad interests
in the Senate of the United States, and
the vote of Malone for that measure Is,
at this time, important, which fact Ma
hone knows. It is intimated to Mr..
Huntington that Mahone's support of
his bill may be secured by getting
Wingfeld, the only straight.out Re-
publican in the Virginia Senate, to
change his course and support the oppo'
nents of Massey. No sooner suggested
than acted upon, flor what does Hun.
tingdon care for Massey-he is not
United States Senator and Gen. Wick
ham is notified that his man in the Vir'
ginia Senate must support Malone, ant
presto, chdnge-we find Wingfele
acting with the Mahoneites in opposi'
fion 10 Massey.
But the game wouldn't work, fol
Massey can now boast Of q Big Six in
stead of a Big.Four. The farce goeI
bravely on.
