One Of the benefits Of early shea~ing i.
that it is the best way to destroy ticks
Fowls will clear them all off if allowed
to 60 where the sheep are both sheep and
fowls enjoy it. Another, the necessity
for washing is obviated. Sheep having
heavy neeces sometimes do not dry
off well after washing. Sometimes the
farmer may suffer in selling unwashed
wool; but not washing at all is better for
the conscience than washing slightly and
shearing after the grease has started again.
On the other hand don't shear early un-
less the weather is fine or superior protec-
ton can be given. and do not shear weak
ly sheep unless very ticky; when thus
they may improve under such treatment
A sheep few days well over shearing is
all right. if not allowed to stay out over
night or through stormy weather. 1t is
not good practice to shear too close in
June. as the hot sun may cause shedding
of the wool.

A bee-keeper of many years expert
ence informs us that his colonies of bees
never wintered better than they have dur
ing the past season. Every hive has come
out strong and in good plight to COM
mence the spring campaign. One bright
afternoon last week our friend took his
bees out from the cellar where they had
been confined all winter, and gave them
an airing. The bees appeared to be de-
lighted to get smell of fresh air after
being hibernated for SO long a time, and
it was fine sight to see the busy insects
dashing around in the sunshine.

There is no lack Of reports from farmers
who have been successful with ensilage.
But it is noticeable that the most of those
who have adopted the ensilage system are
sort of amateur farmers who have plenty
OF money. Now it is no doubt true. that
this class of farmers have made their
silos pay but that does not signify that the
average farmer can build silos and make
them profitable. 1t is quite costly job to
build good silo. and that it would be lu-
crative for the average farmer to invest
his money in this way remains to be
demonstrated

APPROACHING ETERNITY.
How the Assassin Passed the Early
Hours Of Morning.

WAsuISGToN, June $685. A. NJ.
Guiteau was very restless most OF the lat
ter part Of the night, not sleeping more than
twenty minutes at time. Towards morn
ing he fell into sounder sleep, from sheer
exhaustion. He rose few minute. after
five, and break tasted heartily nj 80, eating
steak, eggs, potatoes and other dishes. When
the cook took his breakfast into his cell
Guiteau told him to bring his dinner at eleven
promptly. Rev. DIR. Hicks. who remaine d
at the Jail all night, was called into the pris-
oners cell soon after he rose. and held con-
versation on religious subjects with him. At
eight o'clock Hicks saw the prisoner again.
when he made request to have bath, aud
asked Hicks to go out aud see the scaffold.
Guiteau desired him to arrange with the
warden to have the trap sprung as soon after
Il AS possible. He also expressed consider
able anxiety least some accident should oc-
eur, and insisted that Hicks should see that
the scafiold and its appurtenances were in
proper condition. After Guiteau had dis
posed Of these matters he read a poem com
posed by himself, which he calls Simplicity.
or religious baby talk" After reading it
aloud he attempted to sing it, but broke
down in the effort. which would have ap-
peared quite ridiculous if the occasion had
been less solemn. Guiteau then talked about
his future. He remarked that his heart was
tender. IL don't think, he said. II can go
through this ordeal without weeping. not be-
cause of any great weakness for the princi-
pie in me is strong but because am nearer

PREPARATIONS.

DIR. A. E Mcdonald. of New York, and
DIR. Francis Loring. of this city, who served
~ expert witnesses At the trial of Guiteau.
arrived It the Jail at Il o'clock.
DIR. Mcdonald said. As he understood it
An autopsy would be performed by three
physicians agreed upon By the friends Of the
condemned man. Afterwards the brain
would be removed for further examination
The three physicians elected to perform the
autopsy, Mcdonald said. we're Dr. Lamb,
who made an autopsy of the President. DIR.
Sands and Dr. Hartigan, the deputy coroner
of this city Dr. Loring expects to make q
thorough examination of the prisoners eyes.
About IL 80 o'clock preparations began to be
made for the execution At IL. 80 o'clock .
detachment of artillery was formed on the
east side Of the rotunda, and brought their
muskefs to parade rest at thar time. About
so the people we're at the rotunds- Hicks
was with the prisoner engaged in prayer.
Guiteau showed great nervousness, and APP
peared greatly startled when he heard the
rattle of the muskets on the stone floor of
the rotnnda- From that moment Guiteau
appeared to be thoroughly overcome with
emotion. He wept freely. and seemed to he
in great anguish. The scene in the rotunda,
while waiting for the prisoner, was one long
to be remembered. Soldiers were drawn up
on one slde. and long lice of spectators
drawn up facing them on the other. Ii was
understood that Guiteau was very much de-
pressed and it was expected that his passage
to the gallows would present very distress
ing sight.

On THE GALLONS.
Religious Exercises Conducted by Rev.
DIR. Hicks.

Guiteau gazed upon the crowd, looked up
at the beam over his head and quickly made
a survey of all the dread paraphernalia. As
soon as the crowd had gained access Gen.
Croker waved to them to uncover, and all
heads were barred. Dr. Hicks made PRAYER
in these words
Father, out of the depths we cry to Thee.
Hear Thou our supplication for the sake of
Jesus Christ. the Savior, who has made a
full propiation for US. Behold this Thy
servant: we humbly pray that thou will de-
liver him at this supreme moment of his life
Let Thy light descend upon him. Liberate
his soul from prison. May he appear before
Thee absolved by thy great mercy, from
blood outlines. Deliver him and us. God
have mercy on us. Christ have mercy on
us. Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin
of the world, have mercy on us. Amen"
During the prayer Guiteau stood with
bowed head. At its conclusion DIR. Hicks
opened the bible and in firm tones said /:
II will read section from the 10th chapter
of Matthew from the asth to the 4lst verse
inclusive
He then read, in a clear, strong voice and
good information, showing little if any ner-
vousness. DIR. Hicks then produced the
manuscript, which was prepared by the pris-
oner this forenoon, held it before HIM while
Guiteau read. While DIR. Hicks was arrang-
ing the manuscript, Guiteau exhibited a
slight nervousness and moved several times
from one foot to the other.
He soon recovered his cOmposure, looked
at the sea of upturned faces and said II
am now going to give you my last diving
prayer. He then read, in a loud tone, and
with distinct and deliberate emphasis. his
prayer.

AT II O'Clock, contr.,v IN the camera, ex.
pectation and her purno.s :. aYn,e..ed vss.
terday, Mrs. Scoville arrived AZ the iaiI and
besougbt admission. Her manner was ex-
cited and she appeared TO be Iaboring under
great excitement Gen Croker declined to
admit her unless the prisoner specially re-
quested It. John w. Guiteau. who was in
the rotanda, was informed that his sister was
outside ana III nrst started up to go to her,
but AFTER a moments hesitation declined to
interfere, saving Il will leave the whole
matter with Zen. Croker" Guiteau had
not been Informed of Mrs. Scoyille's pres.
ence, and even if he was aware that she
was here, IT Is believed he would not desire
10 have seen her. His great desire now
seemed to be that there should be no scene
and that his program should be carried ont
without any interruption or incident to de-
tract from the heroic picture which he be-
lieved he was about to present.
After a snort conference with Warden
Croker, John w Guiteau went outside the
jail to see his sister. He found her in great
excitement bordering on bysteria. but after a
short time he succeeded in calming her and
dissuading her from any further attempt TO
gain admission. Mrs. Scoville acknowl-
edged the propriety of such course. but
said she could not possibly remain in the
city during all the wretched hours of the
morning. She brought with her the flowers
which Guiteau had asked for and they were
taken in to the prisoner She also brought
two handsome flower pieces-a cross and an
anchor which she will place upon her broth
er's coffin with her own hands After all is
over and Guiteau has been taken down and
placed in his C fin Mrs. Scoville will be
permitted to view the remains and place her
floral offering upon his coffin.
