Origin Of the Merino Sheep.

As the ancient Greeks had no cotton
nor silk and very little linen, and MS
sleeps wool was the principal texture
from which their clothes were made,
they took peculiar care to cultivate
with especial care such breeds OF sheep
ss produced very fine wool. Snch
breeds were those of the Greek city of
Tarentum, situated on the Tarentine
gulf. In order to improve the fine
quality of the wool still more, the
sheep were covered with clothes IN
cold weather, as II was found by ex-
peiience that exposure TO cold made
the wool coarser. Thus clothing these
sheep from generation to generation
resulted In q very delicate breed with
the law established by Darwin ie-
gard to selection and adaptation TO
exterior condition. This product of
Greek industry vas transmitted by
them to the Romans, whose great su-
thor, Coiumella. states that his uncle
in Spain crossed the fine Tarantine
sheep with rams imported from Africa,
and obtained a stronger breed, COM
bining the whiteness of fleece of the
father with the fineness of fleece of the
mother, and having obtained such re-
suits the race was perpetuated. The
absence of other fine textures made
these Spanish sheep so valuable that
In the beginning of our era they were
sold in Rome for $1,000 in gold q
head, an enormous price for those
times, when money had much more
value than now. When the barbar.
ians invaded Italy these sheep were
all exterminated, while the greater
portion of the Roman possessions
were laid waste. But in the less &C.
cessible mountains of Spain the Moors
preserved the breed, and it is to them
that modern Spain owes the meriro
sheep, which are the direct descendants
of the cross breed of the Greek and
African ancestors referred to. 1t is
a valuable inheritance, too, which the
country owes to the combined Greek,
Roman and Moorish civilizations, and
of which California wool-growers
also earn the advantages, by the pros.
perity of this breed of sheep, which
was there a few years ago. [Scien.

s-tock.Raising In Texas.

A correspondent Of the Rural Neso
Yorker writes from Texas of his ex.
perience on this subject: / started
here in the sheep business by herding
q flock, rs I could get nothing else to
do. I herded one month for S15; I then
went through the shearing season for a
little pocket change, and then, as I was
acclimsting, / became a little sick, and
fell into the hands OF a hospitable fam
lily on the Nueces river. Here my
board did not cost me any money, as !
was rather handy around the house
doing chores. When l recovered I took
charge Of q ranch on the Sabine for the
small sum of $40 u month. Here he
worked seven months, and at the end
Of the first year l found myself in pos
YES sion Of 100 sheep. and SO l have gone
along until 1 have now 1000 head OF
good young sheep, and il l had been q
healthy man i could have doubled that
lumber. The first thing is to get 0
ranch or range for the stock. Tho
price Of sheep depends upon their
quality-from SO to 81. There is a
difference OF opinion about the profits
from the different sorts. Mine are
Mexican ewes ard the best Vermont
Merino rams. The range OF pasturage
is good, but has now TO be bought or
leased. The natural increase OF the flock
is about eighty per cent. n year with.an.
other. The fleece sells for from fifteen
to thirty cents PER pound. Our chief
market is San Antonio and the net
profit of the business is thirty-three
and one-third per cent. II is already
Of enormous extent, but nothing to
what IL will be in five years from now.
The wool has to be taken 10 market by
wagon for one hundred miles. Muttons
are generally sold at the ranches and
driven by the purchaser; they generally
bring 80 per head. They are now SELL
ing for from S1.75 to $2.25, and buyers
are looking for them. IL is hard to
tell the best part of Texas for sheep
raising, as the business seems to thrive
all over the State. Everybody is going
to raise sheep, and cattle are being
neglected.
This is the greatest country in the
world for horse raising. I do not see
why some Eastern horse raisers do not
come here. It does not cost $40 10

annum. Horse stock does better here
than any other stock and with less

Ea.y Bls.ehing OF Celsry.


Peter Henderson, writing on the
subject Of easy hlanching Of celery in
the Massachusetts, Ploaghman, declines
to indorse the plan Of q correspondent,
consisting Of placing celery in troughs
In the cellar and filling the troughs
with water so that the roots will be
covered.
In an experience in growing nearly
ten acres Of celery annually for some
twenty years, Mr.. Henderson has found
that the great point to be avoided Is
water at the roots. Whether the celery
is to be blanched in trenches In the
open field or in boxes In the cellar he
always tries to be certain that there Is
perfect drainage. II the roots were very
dry II might be necessary to pour water
on the celery when first put away in
trenches or in boxes in the cellar ; but,
In his opinion, IL must not remain there
10 become stagnant.
mr. henderson explains: When
celery Is placed In the trenches in the
open ground it will not blanch until
root action takes place-that is. from
the old root young white fbres must
FIRST start ; usually the moist soil In the
bottom Of the trench is sufficient to
induce root action, but II placed in
boxes In the cellar IL Is necessary to
place two or three inches Of moist sand
or soil on the bottom of the box go az
to keep the roots in the condition neces-
sary for The development Of the white
rootlets. II placed on the floor Of the
cellar there Is no necessity for putting
sand or soil under the roots, as, closely
packed as II requires to be. the air Il
excluded. The moisture from the floor
Of the cellar will be sufficient to start
the roots.
The simplest way to keep celery In o
cellar, according to Mr.. Henderson, is
to begin against the wall, packing IL
straight up tightly together in sections
from eight to ten inches wide, each
section being divided by boards Of the
height Of the Length Of the celery ; l. O.,
II the celery Is two feet long, the
dividing board should be placed at Q
distance apart Of eight or ten inches and
two fest high. MIR. Henderson claims
that 1t Is necessary h. place the celery
In these small sections, otherwise II q
larger q Of it we're placed together
ii would generate heat and rot. He
advises that the same rule be applied
to the trenches outside they should be
made harrow "a possible, not exceeding
twelve inches in width. Eight inches
he consider the safer width.
