The advertisement Of the New Yock sun
which commences this week in our columns
will be continued for three months. THE
SUN states that the circulation OF its several
editions last year was 55,536,O5O, against
30 236. .9l9 the year previous. The SUN,
while it furnishes live and generally ac-
ceptable newspaper at a very low rate, ex-
pends great deal of money to advertise the
fact. This is one of the secrets Of Its sue

supplement their town or county paper with
a metropolitan journal, TO give The sun

The VALUE OF Coop STock.-it is

police the privilege Of breeding the
best, and it Is the duty of every farmer
to take heed and lesrn a lesson from the
experience of those who make special
ty of breeding for blood and merit Far
mers admire good stock as highly as
any class, but they are slow to avail
themselves OF tue advantages they pos
sess. 4 man who lately sold high
priced colt was not a farmer, he knew
nothing OF stock-Iaising outside of hor-
ses. he was not even a Jut ge of any
creed of horses except the one he was
accustomed 70, and yet he disdained to
raise a scrub colt. What lie has done
can be done by every farmer. and while
If Is lot expected that so large sum
will be realized for a young colt as
$4,000, which he received, yet it is an
fsr up III the hundreds. Are farmers
and stockraisers willing to he idle and
see noyices outsell them, and beat them
at their favorite pursuit? But it is not
the Irotter alone that brings the higher
prices. \ good farm horse bred from
first class draught material, anC of
known blood, has a marketable price
which is commanding. The scrub Is a
parasite. and the farmer who does not
know better than to breed his mares to
anything and everything because the
lee is low had better abandon his call
ing and leave it to others to follow. As
with hoIses, so with other stock In
feriority in stock is the cign-post of
bankruptcy, and points unerringly to
destruction, for experience has proved
that no farmer has yet been first class
practitioner ON the farm who did not
keep close watch on the method OF
breeding his animals and keeping them
up to perfection.
