The MerinO in Europe.

The Merino sheep occupies as proml-
neut and predomnating position in
the sheep husbandry of central Europe
as it does in all countries of the world
where it is allowed a competing foot
hold. Introduced into Germany in the
latter part of the eighteenth century, it
rapidly gained in favor. Its improve
ment as fine-wooled sheep was entLu-
siasticaly pursued, till its fleece became
OF exquisite fineness and delicacy, far
SURPRISING anything ever before attain
ed or even attempted The delicacy of
fleece was accompanied by delicacy of
physical constitution, and lightness of
fleece; but these were not compensat-
ed by the extreme fineness of the wool
and its increased commercial value.
Later, attention was directed to re-
storing the vigor of constitution, III

but never to an extent to lose to Ger
many its rank as the finest wool coun-
try of the world. Of Fabrics.

This time the resolutions of the Ma

not be misunderstood. 1t was FORUM
ate that this association was strength

being started--IerdS Wool GrO,Cer.
1t is unquestionably true that sheep
men are taking m ore hopeful view of
the situation and prospects than they
did few months since. A reactionary
feeling is setting in which speaks well

which cannot but be regarded as sig

in the Southwest, where the flock in

more rapidly than anywhere else. -

An examination of the reports made
by department commanders to the secre-
tary of war, On the causes of desertie1s
from the army, show the following prin-
cipal causes: First, insufficient quantity
of and want of varictyoff food second, the
great amount of manual labor required
to be performed by enlisted men;
third, insufficient qay; fourth. PARTIAL
ty In the administration of Justice; fifth,
stringency Of the regulations governing
guard duty; sixth, the enlistment of bad
men in the service. A majority of the
department commanders express the
opinion that the operation of these
causes could be in a large measure re-
duced withou. adding materially to the
cost OF the army. 1t is thought that the
increase Ina pay recommended by the
general of the army, from SIS TO SI6 per
month, combined with a revision of the
r~ations, would of itself largely do away
with the first and third causes named.

The reduction in the revenues for the
opening quarter Of the first fiscal year of
the new taxation laws is, in round mum
bers, fifteen million dollars, giving d
rate of sixty millions a year. This would
leave a probable surplus of one hundred
millions. Howto dispose of this surplus
and how to prevent such accumulations
for the future, will be the principal
questions before the next congress. The
advocates of the highest attainable pro-
tectiye tariff wish the whole amount to
be taken from the internal revenues, by
the ~lessening abolition of taxes on liq-
uors and tobacco, while the opposition
would have at least a portion taken from
the taxes on foreign imports.
