SOUDAN AFFAIRS.
The Situation at suakim-GenerAl Gra-
hams Arrival There.

LONDON, March 15-The arrival of General
Graham at Suakim has already produced am
almost magical effect in correcting blunders
and restlfying the lines for the defense of
Suakim. General Graham is still lame from
the effects of his accident ct Cairo, but he
insisted on making a personal inspection of
the garrison at Suskim and of the outlying
camps. He was unable to make the insDec.
ton on horseback, aud truggsd msnfullv on
foot, with the help of q stoutcsne. The re
suit of bis inspection was By no means sat
isfactory. He berated the engineers and
quarelmasters who had planned the al.
vanced posts, and said openly that ne was
dlsgusted at their choics OF positions. He
said that they had bluudered in arranging
their positions so that mutual help would
be impossible In the event of combined
night attack by the enemy. General Ora
ham has ordered radical change in the dis.
positions for defense on the land side of
SsukiW, and hs advent is hailed by the
soldiers ike the coming of a sa7ior. The
Suskim garrison has been desperately
worbPd during the psst few weeks The
guards have been put % unaccuSt tomed drills
10 bsudlirg siege guns; the Egyptians have
been sent wherever there has been a chance
OF stopping bullets and the Indians have
been employed in sallies TO terrify the
Arabs. All hands were worried and excited.
The constant night attacks by 0sman Digua's
troops prevent all chance of sleep, and
necessary fatigue and police duty during the
day keep the Brstish troops fully employed.

MUTTON AS FOOD.
Good Mutton More the Result of Feeding
than Breed.

Good Mutton More the Result of Feeding
than Breed.
In the production of good mutton
much more depends upon feeding than
upon the breed. The flesh of well-fed
sheep, of every variety, from the Me-
rino to the Downs, is palatable and de-
licious. The reason that Merino mutton
is not better is because of age, bad feed
ing and i'll treatment generally. A
prominent agricultural editor who has
for years said that Merino mutton was
not fit to eat, was recently presented
with two quarters of a pure Merino
which were served upon his table and
Never, anywhere, or of any breed.
have we tasted mutton more sweet or
tender, and we have eaten the best of
Southdown, thousands of times, upon
it's native heath. The mutton was from
a four-year-old pure Merino eve, weigh
ing III pounds, and dressing sixty-tve
pounds. She was entirely free from
wrinkles and would have sheared eight
cen pounds at the spring shearing. A
sample of her wool wa one of the best
we ever saw, showing both length and
quality, and an even texture through
out. No mutton equals a chop from a
fat, well-fed young sheep
I do not insist that Merino mutton is
as good as that from the strictly mutton
breeds, but 1 do contend that any sheep
will make good and profitable mutton,
if properly fed and cared for, an item
which will 60 a long way in piecing out
the short profits of wool-growing. None
of the objections urged against the use
of pork can be brought against that of
mutton. 1t has never been known to
impart disease to its consumers. Tn-
chime, tape worm and scrofula are pro-
duced by eating other meats. The
sheep abhors mire, and will taste moth
ing that is not clean and clearly served.
1t is wholly herbaceous, and very neat
in its habits. Mutton is as wholesome
as any meat, and may be v~ariously pre-
pared for the table. Fol steady diet it
is superior to pork and costs no o
I have reference to mutton, for in my
estimation, only those sheep which are
fat and healthy are muttons. Old, de-
crepid, broken-mouthed, foot-diseased
animals, such as fill the general mar
ket, are not fit for food, and do much
to prejudice people against mutton.
The majority of farmers do not kill a
sheep once a year, because custom has
made the American people great pork
and beef-eaters.-COr. Bovine Farmer.

Horses Without Shoes.

It may do very well for those who
are inexperienced in the use of horses
to talk of abandoning the process of
shoeing, but it will not convince those
who are accustomed to draw heavy
loads with this animal that they a be
safely employed without the necessary
foot protection. Even admitting that
during the summer season, when the
soil is soft, a horse could be used with
out shoes, to suppose that it could be
safely used when the ground is roughly
frozen and covered with ice is simply
absurd. And the a%bsurdity is increased
in those portions of the country where
the surface is hillv. Take for instance
portions of New England, with hills
rising at an angle of forty-ive degrees.
and with seasons of ice as they some
times occur, it would be utterly impossi-
BILE for a horse to travel with even no
load without shoes having sharp caulks.
If Nature did provide feet, it did not
provide for the hauling of heavy loads.

SCARLET FEVER.
How Its Spread May be Generally Pre-.
vented.

How Its Spread May be Generally Pre-
When this disease occurs in a family
it is a question of the greatest impor-
lance that its spread to other members
be prevented. 1t is not always possible
to send children away, nor is it always
safe, as they may be infected and spread
the disease elsewhere. The best method
of preventing the spread of the disease
to other members of the family is by
means of disinfection; and by disinfec-
ton is not meant the use of special SUBJ
stances that destroy germs. but cleanli-
ness. In the first place keep the room
in which the sick child is confined thor
oughly ventilated; remove all superfiu-
Gus furniture and carpets; destroy all
rags and bits of paper used in washing
the sick; put all linen and toweling used
in the room into boiling water and boil
them thoroughly till every germ is
killed, But still another thing must be
done; a principal source of the infection
is the skin, so bathing should be prac-
ticed, and after the bath oiling the body
all over. Oil serves to kill the germs;
they do not develop in it. or, if they do,
can not fly away into the air. With per-
feet cleanliness there will be little spread
of the disease.-Heratd Of Health.

FARM AND FlRESiDE

Young pigs always sell Tor good
prices, and return a larger profit in
proportion to cost than hogs.
Preparatory to weaving colts, they
should be taught to feed on grass, hay,
meal or oats, so that there need be no
shrinkaoe of flesh after leaving the
dam.-Rural NeW Yorker.
On pleasant days the cellar win
dows should be opened. Fruit keeps
better if given fresh air and if main
taned at a low temperature; the ventila-
ton improves the healthfulness OF the
house also.-N. E. Farmer.
