TuK main ground upon which Governor

1882 by n majority of 200. 900. This claim
has to bc taken, however, subject to the dis.
paragng fact that in the year next following

If the Democratic party is not blind, Il
ought to be able to see where the cry for
free trade comes from. The agricultural dis.
tricts have spoken In all sections, and they
favor protection. The manufacturers have
expressed themselves for protection. The In.
boring classes. in every meeting that has
come to our notice, have declared for pro,ec.
tion. Protection does not mcun u tariff on
raw material needed here In our manufac.
lures. II means tariff that will keep out
the competition of cheap foreign labor and
cheap foreign production. Where, then, can
the cry come from except from the shop.

wealthy from production and holding its

" that no more bridges were built last year

have shared the fate Of those already built.
This year has shown plainly that nothing but
the most substantial structure should bc

fewer Of them IL need he, but build them be.

The lambs should be forced along now
if they are intended for the butcher. To
this end there should be trough near the
sheep-pen to which the lambs can go, but
to the sheep. and the farmer
should have oats. wheat, bran or corn
meal there every day. A few days earlier
in getting to market and few pounds
difference in weight makes great differ
ence in the selling price. Look out it the
sheep have ticks on them that they do not
leave the sheep aad attack the lambs. If
they do the extra feed will go to fatten
the ticks rather than the lambs. The old
sheep need little extra feed now to
enable the ewes to support the lambs.
and still keep up the growth of
wool. There will soon be grass
enough to give the sheep feed.
If there are bushes and weeds sprouting
in the fields before the grass starts. it will
do no harm TO allow the sheep to browse
them down. They will kill many of them
in this way by taking them when young
and tender. Sheep may be made to kill
out almost all bushes and briars by being
compelled to fed them down, but when
the bushes get old and tough the sheep
need also much other and better feed with
them or the sheep will be killed first.
