APro,r.t nrnin., Oatmeal.


correspondent of an exchange enters
a vigorous protest against the general use
of oatmeal mush first course at break
fast. There is undoubtedly much truth in
what he says, although his first objection is
easily overcome by preceding the dish of
oatmeal with fruit, either cooked or in the
natural state, or by half cup of hot yrter
As to the second objection, We have klp, n
persons to whom, owing to weak digestive
power, oatmeal was positive injury such
people should substitute for it graham mush
or some of the various wheat or corn prep
parations Here is the protest: The
fashion of beginning breakfast with oat
meal porridge has caused more dyspepsia
than any single habit that | recall. 1t

Al Whnt Height IL the sap Of the sugar
mnuIe the sveetpstf

1t is generally agreed that the flow Of SAP
is greater near the ground than high up on
the trunk Of the tree. But there is a differ
ence Of opinion about the height where the
sap is sweetest One writer says: As
the flow Of sap is largest near the ground,
and the sap is sweeter the higher the tree
is tapped but less in quantity, about two
feet from the ground consider to be the
best point for tapping, quality and quantity
considered This is from Wilmington,
where maple sugar making has been studied
as one Of the fine arts On the other hand,
DR. H. A. Cutting Of Lunenburg, who has
been practical sugar maker, and who has
made numerous scientific experiments to
test some ot the questions in relation to the
flow of sap, says that from careful expert
ments he has found that the flow Of sap de
creases as the tree is tapped from the base
to the top. The degree Of sweetness, he
says, also decreases in the same ratio 80
He has found from the closest experiments
that trees tapped nine inches from the
ground produced double the amount of sap
that was obtained by tapping three feet
higher, while the sap was considerable
sweeter.' What do the sugar makers say
to this We hope to hear from some of
them.

This breed Of sheep is almost unknown in
our locality. \ few specimens, from New
Hampshire, We believe, were exhibited at
the Valley fair last fall They are of very
large size, A writer-English we Judge
says of them
This favorite breed has many fine quail
tiles TO commend il. Its mutton ia not su
much esteemed as that Of the small breeds
like the Southdowns, hut this is not to be
expected, seeing that the Shropshires run
to double the size Of the sheep mentioned.
They eau, however, boast Of goodly pro.
portion of lean meat 10 the fat, which is
fine in the grain and rich in quality The
Shropshires have been so much improved
lately that they cut an abundance of wool.
Not 50 much, certainly, as some Of the
white faced sheep hut it is Of better quail
ity. Again as the Shropshres will live
where the large Cotswolds would starve,
their condition is usually good SO that some
times they cut heavier fleece than does a
white faced sheep
These sheep are justly celebrated for
their robust constitution and their pralh

There is so much of the current ltera

and entertaining that no boy or girl need
be without books suited to his or her taste
But there is a dark side to this subject, as
every rejecting person knows. Side by
side with the pure stream of children's lit

foul current poisoned by depraved men, and
yet made enticing enough 10 tempt the boys
