STOCK ITEMS.

The National Stockman gives the follow
ing reasons for expecting an advance in
the price Of wool: ''The stock Of old wool
Is closely consumed; the new clip must be
limited in quantity on account Of the di-
minished number Of sheep from which it
can be shorn; the price already is ON
the up grade; and differentiation and
other frauds Of importers, which affect the
price of wool, are likely to be prevented by
the steps which are now being taken in that
direction"
Jerseys are more susceptible to cold, on
account of their carrying less flesh, than
any other breeds. They should not be sub
jected to abrupt changes, nor exposed to
cold weather. More particularly will this
apply to mich cows and cows about to
calve, but it is applicable to all Jersey
stock. Wet, cold rains on young cattle and
calves, as well as COWS, especially If in poor
condition, will always have a bad effect.
No doubt many disappointment in Jer-
sey heifer, after maturing, could be traced
to neglect and starvation, almost, while
young. Good feed, good care and kindness
will pay.-yersey Bulletin.
Mr.. A. Rhoads, of West Las Animas, in
that the death Of many of the through
Texas cattle that persisted during the late
blizzard was cansed mainly by branding
back Of the ribs. In many cases, where the
cattle were found lying on the branded
side, the entrails dropped out as soon as
the cattle were turned over to skin, the
cooked hide affording no protection to
that part of the body.
D. II. MOninger, the great beef maker Of
Iowa, believes that steers can be raised the
cheapest by having the calves come in tho
spring and weaving them of en- grass. The
more grass and less grain you use the less
expense The idea of a calf intended for .
beef-steer being crowded with grain and
milk from birth makes it q very expensive
animal.
An Eastern writer gets it down about
right when he says the rule to be observed
by every farmer in regard to the proper
keeping of cattle is that every animal, from
the greatest to the least, should be kept
happy and saved from pain and misery.
Then the stock are profitably kept, and tho
profit is in proportion to the degree of COM
fort enjoyed by them. Every farmer be-
fore he retires to his own warm bed at
night or before he eats his abundant supper
should see that all stock and fowls arc
housed warmly and well fed.-Erehange.
1t is estimated that 800 head Of hogs were
smothered to death during the late bliz-
