Sheep.

A writer in Farm aud Garden says:
"Despite the constant attention which
Is called to the value of sheep, not only
rs improvere of the land, but as profit
able farm animals for wool and mutton,
there are mauy farmers who hsve never
raised or kept q single sheep, though
their farms are adapted to raising sheep
largely and proitsbly. Why this is we
can not imagine, for facts and figures
can be had by the score to prove the
profitableness of sheep breeding, if
necessary, aud about the only drawback,
in many localities, is the loss occa> >ioned
by dogs Many a rough, worn-out or
neglected farm might be brought up
rapidly and be made paying land by
breeding sheep the con, as the manure
from the sheep is one of the most en-
finely distributed. OF course they
may not do this without being fed some-
thing besides what they can get in the
fields, yet this additional food works to
the profit of breeders in two ways; it
not only insures a good and profitable
growth of flesh and wool, but it makes
the manure richer and more valuable.
Even poor farmers can give sheep 3
trial by commencing in small way,
and then, as means and experience are
gained, the flock can be gradually in
creased by purchases, though the nat
ural increase from a small flock of sheep
Is by no means inconsidersble, il prop
erly managed and cared for as they
should be. Like any other kind of sto *,
they must have good care and food to
secure the greatest measure of profit. "

Pleasant Letters.

They are sheets OF sunshine. A Methodist
clergyman, of Hartford, Conn.,, writes DR..
David Kennedy, OF Rondout, N. Y, that
"Favorite Remedy" cured him of Chronic
Liver Disease and Indigestion, from which
he had suffered for Q long time. This was
splendid, but nothing more than anyone may
expect who uses this medicine. One Dollar
bottle is a small consideration when health
Is in question. The clergyman says he is go-
ing to introduce DR.. Kennedy's "Favorite
Remedy" among his people. He can't do
better.

The Llama.

Travel IN the Andes is peculiarly TO
mantle and difficult. There are few, il
any, easy passes from the western to
the eastern slopes. Wild, rugged defiles
and steep, dangerous llama paths, wind
ing along the treacherous Drinks of
frightful precipices. are the only high
ways. In such q region the llama is al
most as indispensable to transportation
as its congener, the camel, is to the
tribes of the great deserts OF Africa and
Asia; and it Is still, as in the DAYS of In
cas-, the chief reliance of the Peruvians
and their southern neighbors for burden
bearing. Like the latter. this hardy ami
NAL thriyes best in barren places, where
other beasts of burden, unaided by tinage,
could not maintain themselves. Like
the camel it is capable of going long
periods without food or water. 0ppo-
sitely, as the feet of the one are pecuh
arly adapted for desert travel. 30 are the
feet of the other for rough mountain
routes As the one thrives best in low,
level, heated regions or upon arid
plateaux, so the other is q native of high
mountain districts, 5000 to 10000 feet
above the sea, where It multipies most
rapidly and attains its largest size. 1t is
a notable fact that the llama prefers the
Andes to the forest-clad western
slopes facing the Pacific. Naturalists
divide the family of the camelide into
these two genera, camels and namas,
and the latter are subdivided into four
species; the guanaco, the largest sized
and most widely distributed species (be-
ing found in all latitudes from ten de-
grees north of the equator southwark to
northern Patagonia); the Hama proper.
the next in size; the alpaca, whose wool
forms one of the chief articles of home
consumption and foreign export, and the
vicunna, the smallest species, inhabiting
only the highest regions, at attitudes
ranging from 10000 to II, 600.
The llama is about the size of an or
binary American deer. 1t is capable Of
carrying from 11oto $50 ponnds over the
roughest mountain rocks. for days in
succession. Although its wool is not so
fine as that of the rare and diminutivs
vicunna, it is so abundant that it ranks
next in importance to the wool-clip Of
the alpaca species. The meat of these
animals, especially that of the males, is
coarse and unpaiatsble, except when
young, yet it constitutes . staple of the
home market.
Its chief habitat is Peru and Northern
Bolivia; and these countries raise large
numbers of them, Bolivia alone Is said
to contain over 100000 nmas. taking
into account all of the several species,
and Peru contains nearly double that
many.-Reople's Worker. .,s,a.st

A wholesale consumption Of liquor

of trouble. Early in the week, and
in fact during the last end Of the
week preceding, young man in

devil of a time. He chucked in fluid
Of every description and in quantities
sufficient to drown an ordinary indi-
vidual. 1t was one Of those periOdi-
cal DRINKS that mean a tear out Of un-
certain duration and extent. While
under the influence of his pOtatIOns
he was guilty of sundry excesses
that were sufficiently unlawful to
land friendless orphan in Jail and
give him a term in the penitentiary.
After one or two exciting episodes,
in which he succeeded in mixing
himself, he tackled the heavy weight

posed, but considering his condition

ing that punishment that the inebri-
ate so richly deserved. Not being
in a condition to realize the kindness,
the young man continued to abuse
Grimmer, who lead him from the
sidewalk and ordered him to move
off. When in the middle of the
street the freenzied youth drew his
revolver and emptied four shots in
the direction Of the rotund form
standing in front of the hotel, and
the bullet marks show that the aim
was not very bad considering the
condition Of the shooter. The y. m.

his little festivity. A lesson which
II is to be hoped he may take to heart
and profit thereby. At the solocita-
tiOn Of friends we refrain from pub

extenuation of the exhibition Of

Seattle is quoted throughout the
country as the great concentration of
real estate boom. Prices of lots in
that city are quoted and dwelt upon
at length by the enthusiastic resi-
dents Of that city, and an increase of
100 per cent. in five years is boasted
of as Z Dough it was something unpre-
cedeiHted in the annals of history.
We have no objection to high prices
in Seattle, and for the sake of the
owners would feel cheerful If the
property went up 1000 per cent, hut
whe2,it comes down to actual in
creaseNef values Seattle, nor no other
city, can hold a candle to Spokane
Falls. Six months ago f. II. Jamei-
son bought lot on the south side of
Riverside avenue, between Mill and
Post streets, for $500. Two months
afterward he purchased from a. NJ.
Cannon the adjoining corner on Post
street and Riverside avenue, paying
therefor $1,000, and that was CON
sidered big price. Last Tuesday
that gentleman sold the inside lot to
I. $. Kaufman and G. S. Allison for
$1,000, and an hour afterwards an
other party, ignorant of the transfer,
offered him 5000 for the same piece.
On the same day Mr.. Jameson sold
the corner lot to J.J. Brown for 81 800,
aggrcgating $1,000 on the two lots,
and clearing on the original invest
ment Of $4,000, fire thousand dollars.
Mr.. Jameson turned right around
the same day and purchased from J.
J. Browne the lot on the southwest
corner Of Riverside avenue and Mill
street for S5,GOO, and on the 4th Of
July was offered $4,000 for the pur-
chase and refused. That is what we

For months there has been an un-

removal of the United States Land
Office to some point on the North
Pacific road. By this assertion we
do not mean that any undue or i'm
proper methods were resorted too
in order to beat Colfax out Of this
important government office, but it
becoming known that the authorities
contemplated making a change Of
location led to a quiet but desperate
struggle for the plum. For a long

whether the office would eventually
go ashore at Sprague, Cheney or Spo-
kane Falls, all three of the. towns
using every exertion to secure the
greatly desired office. For a time
it looked as though the former place
would come out winner, but it gives
us great pleasure to state that we

COlville Valley will produce an aver
age crop this season. Grain is look

covered about one and half miles
west Of Geo. Haitt's Lake, equal dis
tance between Spokane Falls and

The mineral promises to be very rich

over the find, and numerous claims
are already staked out. A rush Of
