FARM AND FIRESIDE.

SHEEP AND FERTILITY.-English far
mers keep three sheep on every four acres
of their land. In this country We have
one sheep for every thirty-four acres. The
English wheat crop averages, in ordinary
seasons, twenty-nine bushels per acre.
Ours is little less than twelve. There
may be other causes for this great differ
ence, but the greater attention given to
sheep husbandry by English farmers is
undoubtedly one of the causes.
AS TO THE TART STRAwBERRY.-As
the strawberry season is at hand, few
ideas regarding the disposal Of the deli
cious berry might be timely. Here IS one

dangerous cosmetics, and contains no

Advertising Reference Book.

Mr.. E. Duncan Sniffen, 8 Park ROW,
New York, the wen-known advertising
agent, makes the following truthful re-
marks in the New York Tribune,
October 4th, regarding newspaper
advertising:
1.-The newspaper is so comprehensive
in its scope, SO universal in administer.
ing to the wants of all classes, and OF
every occupation in life; it brings, as 1t
were, the financial and commercial
markets of the world to our counting
rooms, so that it may be truly said that
a good advertisement in a widely-circu-
lated newspaper is the best of all posi-
BILE salesmen-One who never sleeps and
is never weary, who goes after business
early and late, who accosts the mer-
chant in his store, the lawyer in his
office, the student in his study, the
cultivated woman at the family fireside,
who can be in a thousand places at
once, and address a million of people
each day, saying only the best thing at
the right time and IN the best manner"
Now this typical salesman talks
only about his own business in his own
interest, and if in a crowd, he must, in
order to secure a hearing, be more
conspicuous than his competitors, and
at all times he must be as attractive as
possible. The work involves intelli-
gence, a good deal of ingenuity, and
original and ready resource to make the
stale matter of yesterday fresh and
inviting to-day. This is the kind of
newspaper advertising that it pays to
do, and that we undertake to do"

Prot. Mckee Speaks.
SALT LAKE CRY, November I, '84.


Editors Herald:
1t seems that 1 am considerably
abused on account of my political
views as a Democrat. l think it I'M
mannerly for any man to NEEDLE with
my politics. 1 am a solid Democrat
beyond a doubt and am not ashamed
of it, but 1 am no more a Democrat
than were John A. Logan, General
Grant, the savior of his country" and
many others.
1t is said that no one did anything
for the colored man but the Republican
party, butt beg to dispute that, for the
reason that two-thirds of the leading
Union officers in the field were Demo
Gratis, as were the soldiers who fought
under them. The emancipation of the
black. man was not the purpose
of the war, but it became
military necessity. 1t can
be proven that there were 600
Democrats to 100 Republicans who
fought to suppress the rebellion, and
that without the aid of the honest Dem
ecratic heroes, SambO would still be
killing up the corn, thinning out the
cotton and rubbing down old Massa' s
bobtail horse. 1t is strange that every
thing now done by the Democratic he
roes who did so much to save the
Union, should be polluted. according to
Latter-day Republicans. These charges
are without the slightest foundation.
l venture all l am worth that Mr..
Cleveland and Mr.. Hendricks will deny
no rights to the colored man, and when
my colored brethren can reason like
men. and be governed by reason, as
they should be, they viii agree with me

THE VIRGINIA HORROR.

The new year has thus far been re-
marksble for the extraordinary number
of calamities involving within the same
period an almost unprecedented loss of
life and property. While the burning
of the Western convent with its fear
iul loss of life, and the Gay Head disss-
ter, which was still more calamitous,
are still fresh in the recollections of the
public, Virginia sends the news of an
awful accident in one of her coal mines.
More than one hundred unfortunate
men are said to have persisted, and il is
feared that later accounts will add to
the death list. The wives and children
OF the unhappy men who have thus
been sent into eternity without note or
warning are to be pitied. Happily such
terrible accidents are Of rare occurrence.

ADVICE TO YOUNG MAN.

A correspondent, who explains that
be has little capital but no employ
ment and no trade, asks the REGISTER
to which of the Western States it would
be advisable to go to obtain work and
a chance TO grow up with the country.
II the young man has never learned
a trade and knows nothing about farm.
ing, his chance of growing up with any
country and becoming prosperous are
not very good.
If he has business tact he may find
in any new State or Territory good in
vestnent for his capital, however, and
by exercising good judgment may in
crease it more rapidly and with greater
certainty than he can in the East,
the avenues of trade are crowded and
competition is sharp.
Choice between the various sections
Of the West is largely matter of pref
erence, the natural resources being
about equal, and success in any direc-
ton depending mainly upon individual
energy, skill and judgment.
A plucky, energetic man, with lit
tie capital, may make money in the
new mining districts of Idaho and Mon
tana if the reports FROM Coeur d'Alene
prove to be correct. Colorado and Da-
kota are growing rapidly, and are sure
to become great agricultural States.
Southern California offers as many in
ducements to the settler as any section.
Fruit raising is both pleasant and prof.
liable there, and is about as sure a
method of obtaining livelihood as can
be discovered. But it requires capital
to obtain land.
As our correspondent says, $50 West,
young man." is rather indefinite ad-
vice; but the young man who has not
self reliance enough to follow, but waits
for somebody TO hunt him job before
going, is not likely to be much of sue
cess anywhere. The men who have de-
veloped the West are not the ones who
waited for work to come to them. They
went out and made work for them
,elves, aud did not ask editors to tell
item where they could find a sure
hing,
II the editors knew, the "sure things"
would not last long.

SUCCESS OF rwO-CkNr POSTAGE.

Two. cent postage was adopted some
what in the form of an experiment.
Grave doubts were expressed as to its
feasibility. A few months trial has
convinced the country that this rate of
postage has passed beyond the bounds
of experiment; that it is success.
In no way is this more plainly shown
than in the decreased sale of postal
cards, whose receipts have perceptibly
ALLEN of. An appreciable number of
persons, who would prefer not writing a
letter to paying three cents in order to
mail it, will write one when the postage
is reduced to two cents. The two-cent
stamp, therefore, appears to be the
golden mean between the one-eent
postal card and the three-cent stamp.
With this undeniable success, the
hour when penny postage shall be the
rule is not far distant.

That the Stalwarts are making an
aggressive campaign for ARTHUR be
comes every day more evident. Moth
ing which the most ssgscious Of politi-
Cal methods can accomplish will be left
untried. All the power Of the admin
istration will be brought to the aid Of
the President. All the influence of its
army oflOO, 900 officeholders will be ex-
erted in bis behalf. Under ordinary
circumstances these advantages would
be controlling. But the circumstances
are not ordinary. The nomination
will depend upon the Southern States,
whence no electoral votes can be looked
for. Among Southern Republicans
the President is not popular. Either
BLAINE or LOGAN would be regarded
as preferable to ARTHUR. But the
question Of personal popularity does not
enter the canvass. The ablest Repub-
liean could not build up the party in
the South. All the aid he could give the
party in that section would spring from
patronage, and it is question Of pat
rOnsge which will determine the char
scter Of tho delegations sent to the
nominating Conventions. The Office
holders in the South have the whip
hand of the friends Of the other aspir-
ants. They have something to show
for the faith that Is in them. They
have already organized their canvass,
and the Southern machine is as perfect
as its Northern prototype. As was said
the other day by distinguished Re-
publican from Louisiana, "the ARTHUR
men will keep their mouths shut end
vote the straight ticket at the prima-
RES" This means that they will avoid
antagonisms and complications. All
they have to look for in any contingency
is the Federal patronage Of their States,
and those who hold it now look to
ARTHUR for q continuance of favor.
These men care nothing for the "bloody
shirt" 1t has served its uses with
them and has been thrown aside. The
man who has the fairest chance Of dis
pensing the offices will get the South
EN- Republican delegations at Chicago.
