Grand Trunk asks for b new award, and it is
proposed by the commissioner, we believe, to
increase its percentage on dead freight to 10
per cent. and on live stock to 20 per cent The
Increased allowance is,so very small that it will
scarcely satisfy this road and yet, ifitis still
further increased Erie is likely to ask for more,
and as any addition tothese roads must come
derbilt interest will show resistance The
trouble lies in there being more roads than busi-
ness.

BY railroads, and are coming to the Expo
sition on her.
She writes me that they have employed
their own captain, seaman and servants
and may go as far as Cuba. They provis-
ION her at their own door, they decorate
her with flags and lead off, the first Of a
whole fleet of such craft.
Now this merry maiden and her liebt-
hearted Pinafore plans sets me to thinking.
How many idle ships, boats, tugs, steamers
and 50 on are there lying idle up about the
heads of and all along the forty or fifty
great rivers up the Mississippi? And how
many Of them are going to be painted up
and fitted up for ride down to the Exposi
ton, the mouth Of the river the Teche and
Tuxpam land, Cuba, Vera Cruz.
Thousands and thousands. Sure they
will not necessarily spend any money here,
for they will bring their own beer and bar
rel; nay even bring bread and the like for
others to eat; but they will swell the null
titude nightly, and with their innumer
able fleet, their colored lights atnight, their
banners and their bands of music, will
make sXch scene on the broad bosom ofI
the tawny waters here as the world has not
seen since the days Of Venetian splendor.
THE P0sTP0NEMENT OF THE OPENING.
This, and the solid reason for it, makes
the triumph Of the Exposition positive
fact. The gathering together of all the
Presidents Of all the republics this side of
Europe will be the most notable event in
all the political history of this hemisphere.
Good to the whole wide world will come of
it, to say nothing Of the strength and sta
bilty this very important fact will con-
tribute to this corner of this republic and
the Exposition. I think little energetic
effort might now induce the President of
the French republic to visit this city Of his
race on this grand occasion.
| remember standing by the side of the
Emperor Of Brazil when he declared the
Centennial Exposition open at Philadel-
phia. Some French soldiers, noblemen, de-
scendants of those who fought for us and
with us in the Revolution, were present;
also some eminent men Of science from the
four parts of The earth, and Gen. Grant too,
Bayard Taylor zoo, who wrote the poem
for the occasion, and indeed many eminent
men Of pen and sword. But for all these
there was nothing so unique in the way Of

They both presented themselves at
Miss Merle's an hour later. but Allan
asked to see her alone, and was shown
upstairs to the sitting room.

he started back. for in the center of
the room stood Miss Lindsey.

At the same moment Charley Leon

desperate face.

Blanche. You belong to met
"Yesr' she gasped, flinging herself
upon his breast, and bursting into
tears. 'Oh, Charley, Charley! Why

A look of unspeakable relief came
over Allan's face.
Thank God it is not too late" he
said fervently. blanche, you are
free. Forgive me, but / have never

you ill?"
The slight graceful figure swayed
forward, and fell half-fainting into his
arms.
Come away Charley whispered;
and Allan was left alone with that
lovely white face resting upon his
breast.

moment, and she struggled TO support
herself.
"Sit down, he said, drawing her

tones, ''the loss of you nearly killed

but one thing you did say. You said

He gathered her into his arms as he
spoke, and her lips were so close he
could easily hear the haf-whlspered
'Yes!'
(Which means?" he asked tenderly.
That love you very much. "
The last ray Of doubt was cleared
away when Blanche brought her letter
to patch out what she called the
"epistolary puzzle.
''You know me too well to think that

and Allan was wholly satisfied.

Food for Sheep.

II a meal of concentrated food, such
as cornmeal and oil-cake, be given
sheep once day, the straw and other
coarse material will answer well for
them in place of good hay, provided it
is cut fine, sailed, and placed where
they can eat all they wish. 1t may
not be relished by some to be reminded
of the fact that there is a saving in
cutting straw, and even cornstalks, foI
sheep, but the saving in the waste of a
large flock compensates for the work,
although but little work is usually
done at this season. The object in
cutting is to induce them to eat liber-
ally of it, as it can be easier prepared
when fine, leaving the better quality
of hay for the horses and cattle. Sheep,
while not rejecting any kind of food
at times, are still capable of selecting
that which is good, and well-pre-
pared mess Of finely cut stuff, sailed to
taste, will be acceptable at all times.
If preferred, the mess may be sprinkled
with cornmeal or oilmeal, or change
to sliced roots twice week is still bet
ter. Well managed sheep give greater
profits at all times.

Erysipelas, a disease coming without
premonition and ending fatally in
three or four days, is sometimes very
promptly cured by applying a poultice
of raw cranberries, pounded and plac-

DR.. Mortimer Granville, of London
says that the man who thinks he has
caught cold should take large pinch
of pungent snuff, like the rapee or fine
Scotch, and wrap his coat around him,
while he has big fit of sneezing.
This, he says, is natures remedy for a
chill.

the corners. They were then tried on
the same lands for u day, with no
marked advantages on either side,
These oxen were broken to the work,
held their heads well up and marched
along with steady, stately step. In
this particular instance the oxen were
better for ploughing than the horses,
for the simple reason that, performing
equal work, they cost less for keeping
and were more readily prepared for
labor. Where the field operation is at
a considerable distance from the barn
or pasture the horse would have the
advantage in the celebrity of his move,
ments in reaching it. AS general
thing, the summer season through,
horses can do more work than oxen,
for this reason, if no other, they can
stand the heat better. Both are i'm.
portant on considerable farm, and if
the OK is found to be worth the most
when age suspends labor, the horse
will have made up the difference by
the celebrity of his movements and the
more diversified uses for which his
labor has been made available. Both
are good in their places, and no ex-
tensive farmer is properly equipped
for business who is destitute of either.

Shelter tho PIGS.

Experiments made by Professor E
NJ. Shelton of the Kansas State Agricul-
tural College, show that it pays to pro-
tect pigs. Ten animals, as nearly alike
as possible, were kept during the last
two winters in separate pens, five in
the basement Of a barn and five in the
yard, without covering, save straw for
beds. They were fed with Indian corn
twice a day, each mess being carefully
weighed. The result was as follows:
Pigs in the barn, one pound of pork
cost 4 $40 pounds Of corn; pigs cut
side, one pound Of pork cost 5 7-10
pounds OF corn. Or, expressed in
other words, each lushel of corn fed in
the barn made II $40 pounds of pork;
fed outside made 8 7-10 pounds Of
pork. This shows that Of every bushel
of corn fed to the unsheltered pigs an
amount capable Of making 1.6 pounds
of pork was used in keeping the pigs
warm. According to these figures, if
the sheltered pigs gained 100 pounds in
weight during the season, it was by
the expenditure Of 40 pounds of corn
for each pound of pork, or 400 pounds
of corn for for the whole increase. The
unsheltered pig required $50 pounds
of corn for 100 pounds Of pork. This
shows saving Of 50 pounds of corn
about - bushels, in favor of eacl
sheltered pig; but if the pigs are as
healthy in one case as in the other, an(
the gain is only in the saving of corn
it will hardly amount to the interest
on the cost of the shelter and the weal
and tear,--Scientifc Anaeyic4n.

Ing sensible hints: "Colts should not
be permitted to stand on a plank,
cement, paved, or any hard floor the
first year. as these are liable to seri-
ously affect the feet and legs. Unless
the yard where the colts run has a
fine, dry, gravelly soil, it should be
well Uttered, so as to keep their feet
dry. Mud or soft, wettish ground is
apt to make tender hoofs, no matter
how well bred the colt may be. One
reason why the horses in one district
grow up superior to those in another
in hoof, bone, muscle and action is be-
cause it has dry limestone and sill
cious soil. When the mare is at work
do not let the colt run with her; and

sucking the colt, as her overheated
milk is liable to give the foal diarrhna. !"
