DOGS AND SHEEP.

The Winchester Home Journal is
sound on the question of dog law. 1t
has avowed its unalterable determine.
ton to labor for a good dog law. Read
what it says upon this subject which
we will reproduce in our next. Let the
press and the farmers "speak out and
spare not" until there is some wise law
enacted to protect this, one of the
most profitable industries of the coun-
try. Let it be live question in the
coming canvass, and understood as a
part of the business of the next legis-
lature to provide a remedy by wise and
judicious legislation. The time has
come when farmers must demand pro-
lection and encouragement in growing
sheep.

capable Of different constructions. For
instance, young man goes 10 see his

about an hour after might. He ''gives"
her chocolate caramels, but he doesn't
retain her-if another fellow with more

How California Wine is Made.

We do not know of any places in the
state where the few aborigines still to
be found on the coast ever come near Il
winemaking establishment. Their la
Dor is not OF the kind desired. A class
of native Californians are sometimes
employed in winemaking, though not
in large mum bers. Cinnamon are con-
sidera0ly used both in gathering
grapes and in making wine, though
they do little more than feed the stem
mers and assist in placing the crushed
grapes in the presses. California wine
is made universally in this state by q
very simple process, and with very few
exceptions by the aid of patent ma
chinery. The grapes are first passed
through a stemmer, which removes the
stems and breaks tho skins. They are
then put into q press and hydraulic
power is applied till the juice is all out
To stamp out the juice rs is done in
Italy, Spain, and some parts of France
would be, with all the labor-saving
machinery employed, q slow, expen-
sive, and absurd process. Few makers
are so poor that they can not afford u
press Most owners of vineyards sell
their grapes to the large wineries
which have the requisite appliances for
the pressing and fermentation. BY
them it is sold directly to the city NOR
chants or to the makers of finer brands
in the city, who blend and export it.
Perhaps there is now and then small
vineyardist in the hills who raises u
few hundred pounds OF grapes and
makes q little wine for his own use.
Tuis man may be a native Californian
or he may be an Italian and his wine
making process may be very primitive.
1t is possible he may stamp all the
grape juice from the force OF early
habit, but wine so made is invariably
consumed by the maker. 1t has no
market value whatever - San Francis
co Chronicle.

a Queer Way to Sell Beer.

A party who went fishing from
Washington a few days ago had an
amusing experience in getting some
beer near the edge of Montgomery
County, Maryland. They were direct
ed to n store where beer was kept, and
the merchant said he had some bottles
on ice. Two bottles were called for
lie produced them and said to the per-
son ordering the beer, "eome on"
The merchant passed out of his store,
beer in hand, followed by the wonder
inc Washingtonian. Two or three
hundred yards were trayersed, and
just as the puzzled angler was begin
ming TO think ne had struck n mailman
the merchant stopped, handed over the
beer, and named his price. When the
money was paid to him he said: you
see, local option prevails in Montgom-
cry County. aud I've brought you over
the line into Frederick County, where
there is no law against selling liquor. "
The couple returned to the store where
the merchant produced glasses, saying
there was no objection to drinking the
beer on his premises, since it had not
been sold within the county.
The merchant positively refused to
sell any beer unless the party wanting
it would accompany him across the
county line. He owns a large farm as
we'll rs tine store, and speaking OF local
option he said: ats good law and
/ won't violate it. His neighbors
testify that he rigidly adhered to his
rule of crossing the county line, even
when his regular customers were pur-
chaSers. - Washington star.

Ayers Sarsaparilla.

Since then Mr.. LELAND has recommended
AYERS SARsAPARILLA in many similar
cases, and he has never yet heard OF its fail
ure to effect radical cure.
Some years ago one of Mr.. LELAND's farm
laborers bruised his leg. Owing to the bad
state of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. Hor-
rible itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolerable. The leg became enor-
mously enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr.. LELAND's direc-
ton, was supplied with AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA, which allayed the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use.
Mr.. LELAND has personally used
