Improvement in Live stock.

The constant dropping of water will wear away marble. and the lesson of live stock improvement, although often gp- parrutly falling upon deaf ears, have produced their effect. Excluding thor
 oughbred stock and that for winch known efforts have. been made at im- provement; and the remainder, cOusti- stutlng whatever of scrub or common stock there may be in the country, shows a much higher quality than 1t did few years ago. and every farmer is to-day
 richer by far because of the influences of blood all agencies to which he gives but slight credit. Grades, and the grades of grades to the tenth generation little dr' ps of good blood, diluted oger and over again. but never lost have haeu making their influence felt. rami- fyIug and reaching through thousands of dividing and interlgcing channels

The process has been slow and the results mtagre, compared to what would have brel the case had advantage been every where taken of pure bred animals for breeding purposes; but nevertheless, the advance has been a most gratifying one, and lts advantages are apparent whenever a pure cross is now made upon the native stock. The foundation has been improved. and, when given a chance, the fraction of good blood back asserts itself with remarkable vigor and certainty The grades are better. and approach nearer the perfect standard, tccause of this under current of good blood. which is widening and deepening everywhere. In comparing thorough bred with native stock, due allowance should be made for the fact that the ua- tive stock has already been greatly im- proved. Breeders Gazette. Chicago.

Now, Mr. Don Sanford is a gentleman We hav the hIghe7' opiai n of. We te- lisve he is scrupulously honest. strin- gently economical in public and private a.Tars. We believe that few men would ave so much f theIr timy 10 do service for the city as Mir Sanford as c9uacil-
 man and acting mayor MT. Sanford has ideas Low this city should be run. and some of ehem are excellent and oth- CTS we do not particularly admire. Few men would take the interest he does in public affairs. Eve-ytiing M-. Sanford does and suggests seems in the direction of economy, or getting the most ont of the least money expended. Mir. Sanford proposes 10 add two or three policemen 60 the force. and reduce the wages of the present force SO that the same amount
 will be distributed equally among the increased force. In one way this works well. It helps two or three more men to positions. but It works badly upon the other six, who must thereafter make SO go as far as SIOO. When a job of print ing is to be done, no matter how small, MT.

 tablishmeuts and succeeds in getting three or four bids anl the fellow who gets it don't make the salt he eats, but the city at large has gained 8 few grains of sa [.

THr discussions m tbe city council arc

THE discussions m the city council are getting interesting and perhaps some what amusing. We are glad the Guardi- ans of the city take s, much interest in city affairs as to dIscuss questions and differ in opinions. The differences, if properly discussed, leads to a better un- ders.anding and facts and figures are brought cut which may be the means of furnishing information not possessed by some. Therefore, gentlemen, We are glad you have got down to the discuss ing business. Thursday night the city hall rang with the eloquenoe of our act ing mayor and of councilman Levin.
