amounts to inactivity of the organs in

So also are constipation, malarial, rheu-

Feeding Sheep.

1t is an easy rule for feeding sheep, to
feed what they will eat. We have mum
erous inquiries, says the Western Rural
in consequence of the shortness of feed
as to what to feed sheep. When there
is plenty of everything it is well to dis
cuss the question of proger feeding.
When feed is short, about all that can
be done is to lay down the simple rule
that we have stated. In fact, the rule
is not to be altogethr disregarded atany
time. There may be and is n choice of
foods among those that sheep will eat
with relish, but it is mistake to feed
what they do not relish. Nature guides
the animal in such matters with II con-
siderable degree of certainty. The fact
that all animals need a change in food
should be fully recognized, though some
enormously claim that sheep do not
ANY animal will tire of food that is
fed exclusively for months, and when
in that condition they will not do as well

serious injury. You waste time and

FACTS FOR THE FARMERS.
Cleanliness In Milking.

Philadelphia Record No estimate
can be made Of the amount of filth that
is added to the milk during milking,
as it cannot always be noticed, but that
the filth does enter tho milk is appar-
ent to anyone who has witnessed the
operation of milking on some farms
where dairying Is made II special busi-
ness. Mr.. Henry Stewart. in alluding
to this subject, stated that "if many
persons living in large towns and cities
should visit the milk dairies about 4
o'clock in the morning they would see
such sight as would set their stomachs
against the use of milk forever after
wards" 1t should be rule for every
milller TO wash his hands clean before
beginning to milk, and the udder and
teats of each cow should be washed with
warm water lin which apiece of washing
soda had been previously dissolved and
then the udder wiped dry with u clean
towel. This may seem unusual to many,
but u few moments reflection will con-
vince any person who is familiar with
milking that it will be necessary if
milk is to be pure aud free from odor
and dirt. The COW is not n clean ami
nal in the stall, and does not hesitate
to lie down and rest with filth all around
her, especially if she should have but
little choice in the matter. She is con-
sequently sanctioned at night in order
to prevent her droppings from fouling
her bed, but despite all precautions por-
tions of the solid and liquid droppings
adhere to the udder and teats. And
col hat ~.
cleaned out occasionally, and the sidos
of the COW become plastered over with
filth, while the udder and teats also re-
ceive more than their share. The ma
jority of miliers-some of whom have
just taken tobacco pipes out of their
mouths-proceed to milk without wash
ing their hands or the uddcr. rely
ing upon the strainer to catch the
hairs and dirt. But after beginning
the milking the hands and teats become
moist and the liquid dissolves portion
of the filth, carrying it into the pail, the
insoluble portions (such as are not too
small) being held in the straincr. In
this manner urine, the liquid portions of
manure. the soluble filth brought into
the stall by the feet and the dirt on the
hands are carried by the flowing milk
into the pail, which every upward
movement Ol lne lliluu VI Jlle llllhlllH
liberates more filth from the udder and
adds it in II soluble condition to the
milk. Once it has passed into the milk
no strainer can remove it, for like sugar
dissolved in water, it will pass through
any substance that permits the milk to
flow. This is a very important matter,
for washing the hands and udder is
seldom practiced, yet it is very neces
sary. More faith in a soluble condition
is consumed in milk than in any other
substance used.

ThreShing Corn.

The Western Rural says that thresh-
ing corn running the stalks and all
through machine) will greatly en-
hance the value of the fodder. But the
question has risen whether or not corn
fodder cut so fine as u machine would
cut it will not heat. The practice of
threshing corn has been adopted by u
number of farmers this season and nat
urally they speak highly of the fodder.
For sheep or other animals the value of
corn fodder is increased by cutting, or
tearing it to pieces. One Iowa farmer
is reported to have thrashed more than
/ 200 bushels out of the shock. He says
that the fodder is torn into shreds and
although the corn is sometimes broken,
it is clean. In thrashing corn this far
mer says that the draft is lighter than
in threshing oats. There is no doubt
that the method will be generally
adopted and it is possible and probable
that machines will be made for that es-
pecial purpose.

The EnglarSed McrjnO.

Western Rural: 1T is very hard work
to get out of u rut. All of us are in some
sort of rut. We have become ac-
customed to certain things and we dis
like to change. We have been breed
ing little Merino sheep for years when
we might just as we'll have bred larger
and better one; and we will get out of
that rut anyhow, sooner or later. There
is no sort of sense in breeding small
animal when we can breed a large one
of the same breed, and have it just as
good. There is a constantly increasing
demand for larger rams. Breeders
want more square inches on which to
grow wool, and they want more mutton.
There is a growing disposition to recog-
ni2e the fact that good MerinO mutton
is good enough. The contempt shown
by some people for Merino mutton is
sheer nonsense. 1t is an old rut that
we are in.
A writer recently said that we cannot
reasonably expect to combine in an en-
inent degree the two-tleece and car
cass, wool and mutton. We may as we'll
look for profits, first from the mutton
and second from the fleece. We may
find it hard work to build up Merino
sheep that shall shear twenty to twenty
five pounds with carcas weighing
lrOn llo W 10 IbOuluS Ill cWcS, anu
from 125 to 100 pounds in rams, after
shearing, but is not beyond the line of
possibility with American skill and
energy.
And now the question comes-is it
intended to disparage the mutton breed
and advise the breeding of merinos?
No. But some prefer the merino, and
it is simply intended to urge those who
do to do the best they can with the
breed. Everybody is supposed to desire
to do that. Someone has called the
merino the poor mans sheep, meaning
by that that they are numerous and that
changes on the mutton line can be
more readily made in many instances,
than they can be through the adoption
af the mutton breeds.

1t grieves us very much to observe
that some of the Republican news

the bill for wine and cigars in the ex-
penscs OF legislative junketing expedi-
tions, he may not be seen, but he is

parent innocuous desuetude of very
perniciously active partisan that de-
ceives our Republican friends at dis
lance. They read that at Il given date
when party convention is held, Mr.
Owlngs is off on a pleasure trip to
Tacoma, Seattle, Spokane Falls, or
some other boomerang town, and at
once form the conclusion that he, like
the snakes at the geological exhibition,
has had his poisonous iangs extracted,
and that he is in reality, as in appear
ance, harmless as dove" forgetting
to apply the remainder of the adage,
which is just as true, that he possesses,
in remarkable degree, politically, the
wisdom of the serpent. Those who
have noted the precision with which
the parts of an automaton respond to
the wires and springs of the controlling
power, will have no difficulty in I'M
derstanding the strange acts that some
times takes place in Republican con-
ventions, which admit of easy explain
alton by a knowledge of the fact that
there is a master hand in the back Of
fee of the Secretary, holding the wires
with a grip like that of the drowning
man, which never relapses except in
death. And he is successful too. As

Although he can't fly,

And he gets there just the same"
