THE policy of running excursion
trains has been severely criticised in some
quarters. 1t is said that it encourages
people to wait for some excursion rather
than to go when they ffstintended, and
leads to greater desire for less than

We wish the Register could convince
the Railroad managers that the excursion
business has been run into the ground.
The CLARION has frequently said that
the business is oyerdone. Frequent
excursions are anything but profitable
to the public at large. They demOralize
labor on the farms, and leave house

Our opponents cannot successfully
denv that since the overthrow Of car
ret bag rule and the establishment Of
Democratic control in the State, taxes
for state and county purposes have been
greatly reduced; that expenditures have
been cut down in every branch and de-
partment Of the State government; that
the civil service has been elevated and
improved; that public schools have been
multiplied and the benefits of education
have been largely extended; that capi-
tai, encouraged by the intelligent, just
and economical rule of the Democrats,
is seeking investment and immigration a
home, in the State. These potent fac
tors of civilization and progress are pro-
verbally cautious and invariably shun q
country where government is unstable

siye. To show the extent to which take:

Agricultural Statistics.

The value Of agricultural products in the
United States for the year 1880 was 81, ,6O0,-
000, 600; and during the two decades when
the increase in the value of manufactured
products was most rapid, the value Of Ameri-
can farms increased 53 per cent Eighty-six
per cent of the total value Of the products of
agriculture in 1880 was consumed in the
United States. How large q portion Of the
home market for these agricultural products
was supplied by persons engaged in manufac-
lures may be inferred from the fact that the
number of such persons was about 5000. 900,
representing population probably of 10 .OO0,-
900, including workers and those dependent
upon them for the means of living. more
careful analysis of the relations of agriculture
to the home market exhibits the same princi-
pie in a more striking way. Ninety three
per cent Of the agricultural products exported
in 1882 consisted of cotton. breadstufTs, pro-
visions and live animals. The cotton came
from the Southern States, and IS per cent Of
the exports of breadstuffs, live animals and
provisions was the product of the Western
States. 1t follows that the agricultural in
terests of the New England States. and of
the other Atlantic States north of the cotton
belt, depend almost entirely upon home
markets, which are mainly sustained by man
ufacturing industries.

Sheep Between Hay and Grass.

Sheep Between Hay and Grass.
The month of April is often trying period
for the flock. Sheep are extremely fond of
green food, and, if allowed. will search far
and near for tufts of grass that have remain
ed green through the winter, or for green
shoots just starting. The amount OF food
that they get in this way is hardly more than
enough to compensate for this extra labor of
travelling. This roaming over the fields
should be restricted to a short time each day ;
for having lost their substantial food, they are
likely to become weak and injured by this
change from winter to spring food. This
period is well known under the old system of
allowing sheep to shift for themselves, as
the most perilous of the year. The stamina
of the system soon becomes so reduced that
exposure to slight storm ends them in
few hours. The careful shepherd will there
fore provide against exposure to storms and
reduction of food during April and portion
of May, if the season is backward. There is
no portion of the year when sheep more need
small grain ration and lock of hay than
that between hsy and grass. 1t has become
to be considered the period Of greatest risk
by flockmasters; butiif sheep have been well
kept through the winter and they reach
spring. in good, strong, healthy condition.
why should there be so great a risk after the
mild season beginsf There is no sound rea-
son except the fact that as soon as sheep 20
to the fields the winter feed is nearly all
omitted, whereas they should be fed steadily
till the grass furnishes sufficient food for
them to thrive upon.-Lipestock Journal
