SHEEP ON THE FARM.
Some Instances Where Their Val
ne Has Been Exhibited,

SOInc instances WDcre 0clr val.
ne Has Been Exhibited.
The New York Tribune says: Day
by day 1t is manifest that a flock of
sheep is of very great value to farm
and it's occupant. A late instance is
that of man who owns 100 acres. orig
inally of medium fertility or under. A
few years ago he changed from grain
raising to the sheep business, keeping
between one and two hundred. His
soil gradually improved until it has
reached very high point. Last season
he laised over fifty tons of excellent
clover hay. about 800 SOC. bushels each Of
oats and barley, 1,200 bushels ears of
corn and 1000 bushels of turnips and
beets. His orchard increased large
ly in productiveness and quail
ity of fruit, and he gathered
several hundred barrels of apples.
He grows dollhouse lambs. and from
the wool and lambs of 100 ewes he real
ICES $1,000, besides the increase of con-
siderable flock of keeping sheep. Last
season he added pig raising, having as
many as eighty-tive on hand at time,
which he sold to his neighbors or fat
tened. He grows only wheat enough
for his own use, keeps three horses, and
of bovine kind only two cows.
A fact not to be forgotten IN sheep
husbandry is that while one may raise
fine wool and very poor mutton, you
cannot raise good mutton without rails
ing good wool also. All authorities
agree that the best fed sheep that fat
ten and mature in the shortest time
make the best and sOundest wool, so
that this by-prOduct from such sheep
will always find ready market. If we
can raise mutton on the basis of max
ing the meat pay the cost, we shall
have the wool for clear profit.

Were the Popular Animals a Aalf
Century Ago, and Deservediy
So.
During the years when the present
generation of active horsemen were
mostly in their cradles, or yet unborn,
the Morgans were having their s'bOom."
That wonderful family, which de-
scended from horse whose pedigree
has never been positively ascertained.
absorbed greater amount of interest
than was ever felt in any other family
until that of Rysdyk's Hambletonian
came into the field, The Morgans well
deserved all the popularity thew ever
enjoyed. Hardy. docile, intelligent,
spirited, true as steel and finely built,
they combined more good qualities for
general purposes than any other family
of horses ever known in this country.
But they were small, rarely exceeding
1000 pounds. although their fine quality
of bone and fiber compensated in some
degree for lack of weight.
There was another serious lack, in
the eyes of American horsemen-thato of
speed. Although they could make long
journeys in a day, none of them ever
trotted single mile within the phe-
nomenally short time which has been
shown by some horses of other strains.
Yet the Morgan was and is essentially
trotting family in the sense that trot-
ting action is innate in its representa-
tives.
So most truly says the American Ag-
riculturist. The Morgan horses of half
a century ago were all that our contem-

An EARLY Closing Secession.

The early closing movement which
went into effect but little more than a
week ago is already dead letter as far
as West st. Paul is concerned. The
majority of the storekeepers were will
ing to abide by the recent edict of the
grOcers' union and close at s p. M. This
they have been doing since the order
went forth until last evening, when
several of the places kept open as before
the agreement was reached, and the
printed announcements which had
been posted in the windows of
all the grocery stores are rap
idly disappearing. The failure
of the movement In West St.
Paul is attributed to the action of a
firm doing business on Dakota avenue,
which has refused from the first to COM
ply with the eariy-closing edict of the
union, and started an opposition scheme.
whereby it agreed to close one day in
each week at 6:30instead of every night
at p. m. as demanded by the terms of
the previous agreement. There is a
bitter feeling among the other grOcers
of the ward, who have done all in their
power to promote the successful carry
ing out of the eariy-closing plan. The
action of the one firm, however, has
rendered adherence to the plan impos-
sible for the others, hence its failure in
the West end.

EARN NOTES.
Hints and Facts That May Be OF
Value to Tillers of the Soil.

Hints ana Facts I0aC May he OF
Value to Tillers of the Soil.
From a correspondent in sheep and
wool we should infer that our Scottish
brethren are not in the habit of breed
ing from their eve lambs. He says:
''In these days of keen competition. if it
is possible to raise crop of lambs off
ewes only one year old, instead of
breeding them for two years for moth
ing only their wool, it must pay bet
ter" The writer expresses the
belief that they may become
more precocious and gender earlier
in the season, which would be a
point gained for an earlier market. In
this country we are not aware that any
effort is ever made to prevent the breed
proper cOnvenienceS the earlier the
lambs can be dropped in the spring the
better, as the early market is usually
the most remunerative: but lambs in
late winter require good degree of at
tentiOn in order to secure profitable
growth.
The early plants and grasses largely
abound in water, and contain but a
small proportion of nutrition. They
assist in regulating the system, and pro-
mote better digestion of the dry food.
All changes from dry to green food
should be made gradually, in order to
avoid bowel trouble. Cows that pro-
vide milk for infants should be fed very
carefully at this season.
Bennett says he has found in Mitchell
county, Iowa, some Shorthorn cows,
that may be justly called general pur-
pose cows-good for large quantities of
rich milk, and superior for the prOduc-
ton of beef. We are glad to hear it,
for cranks have said that it was i'm
possible to combine such qualities in
one animal. And yet such opinions
we're not reported by us.
The manner of milking is important.
A cow should be regularly, gently. and
yet quickly and thoroughly MIXED.
Perfect quietness and gentleness should
be maintained in all management of
either the COW or the calf. By persist
ing in such course of management
for few years herd much more valu-
able than the ordinary mixed herd can
be produced.
w. D. Baker, who, according to the
prize for butter from the N. 81. Dairy
mems associatian, says that he believes
in cross of pure-bloOd Jersey and Hol-
stein. The result will be rich milk and
good deal of it, and an animal better
adapted for the farms of New Hamp-
shire than either of the pure bloods.
Plof. Brown is of the opinion that
the dairy world is yet to be taught that
the extensive use Of grain is not correct
economically; that large quantity of
mixture of roots with hay fodder is
both economical and safe for mich
cows, and that possibly there is better
health with roots. though slightly in
ferior quality of milk.
Do you look for crop of vigorous
lambs when you have paid little or no
attention to the shelter of your breed
ing ewes from rains and billiards, and
when you have almost wholly over
looked the question of regular and
proper feeding of your ewes? asks a
contemporary.

News Events.

Rumors are flying round the West
end to the effect that deal is on foot
for the purchase by the Kansas City
Railway company OF three lots in block
90, Morrison's addition. The prop
erty involved is in the immediate
vicinity of the site upon which the
much-talked-of union depot OF several
years ago was to have been built and
was not. The property adjoins the
building of the Meat and Provision
company on the Kansas City tracks,
fronting on Chicago avenue. All land
in the vicinity has passed into the
hands of the road, the exception being
the three lots mentioned. Regarding
the r1mor GLOBE reporter yesterday
visited E. p. Wilgus, who has the
lots for sale. He would neither sub
stantiate nor deny the story that such a
deal as the one mentioned was in prog
ress. Il have nothing to say on the
subject" said the dealer in dirt. II am
merely employed to do business for
other parties, and have no authority to
make that business public" All at
temptS to gain information as to the
truth OF falsity of the rumor from the
road officials proved equally fruitless.
From hints dropped by real estate men
who are on the inside, however, there
appears to be little doubt of the genu-
lneress of the story that the company
will acquire the property for depot pur-
poses.

TALK OF A TOWN.

The often-repeated criticism about
the consistency and harmony OF the plue
court house curtains has provoked Dr.
Day and the court house commission
generally to giving reason for their
selection of what from the outside APP
pears to have been beaStly poor taste.
Said the doctor to a GLOBE reporter
yesterday: The window shades are
for the benefit of those within, and the
public outside are never consulted; !"
This suggests Vanderbilts remark,
1.-The public be DID," Continuing,
the doctor said: 1.-The United States
treasury department uses indigo purple,
it being a permanent color, as well as
producer of the SOfteSt light inside.
1t may not meet with general approval,
but will give the best satisfaction to
those who are inside the building; and
certainly that is the side of the building
which is uSed-isn't it?"
-
The colored population of st. Paul
are noticeably less eXtravagant in the
taste for high coloring, characteristic of
the race, than is found to be the case in
cities of the East and South. The col
ored damsel who can afford to clOthe
herself in black silk and white lace
could equally well afford, if she chose,
to wear a green silk gown and a yellow
bonnet with blue streamerS. Yet the
majority of the duSky DANES one meets
in half days walk are clad IN the con-
ventional colors just mentioned. With
the men there is decided inclination
to loud stripes and checks, though as a
whole the same criticism will hold good
of them. 1t is true that an occasional
Al 70, 10 nd ly u
male will mingle with the procession;
but. generally speaking, the colored
folks have progressed wonderfully in
the matter of taste in dress during the
past few years.
Col. Bobleter has deserted the count
ing room, and henceforth he will SHINE
as a professional joker. He gained pro-
ticiency in that line during the guber-
Material trip 10 New York. Gen. Null
len is well aware of this, as he was the
unwilling victim of the coloneFs pc

minutes. Returning. he fatherly placed
his right hand on the bald, shiny pate OF
Adjutant General Mullen. The hand
was removed. Horrors! The generals
pate was quite black. There was roar
of laughter, and the colonel once more
disappeared. He had blackened his
hand with burnt cork.
This is where we save the city a
great deal of money" said Chief Jack

Comment and Happening.

"Things are beginning to look a little
brighter in the real estate line" said a West
side dealer in realty yesterday. 1.-THE demand
for residence property is still good, and the
prOvement in the market for business loca-
tons. There may be boom here this sum-
mer after ALL
Arrangements for the FESTIVAL of Beauty. -
an entertainment to be given on the 23d at
the residence of Mrs. g. F. Stout on Clin-
ton avenue, are being entered into with
great zest by the young people of the church.
An elaborate musical programme has been
prepared and the rooms will be decorated in
manner to set off to the best advantage the
galaxy Of female lovlidess to be present.
The gas company yesterday commenced
the extension OF the gas mains in West st.
Paul, and the contemplated improvements
are quite extensive in character. Mains will
be laid from Dakota avenue on Isabel street
to Clinton avenue, thence to Concord street.
Another line will be laid from Clinton ave-
nue. along Congress to State street.
A large force of men were put at work
yesterday morning tearing up the roadway
on Indiana avenue preparatory to the laying
of water mains. Twelve-inch pipes are
being put in. The Winifred street work is
almost completed, and the improvements in
the sewer and water facilities of that locality
were nowhere more needed.
Charlie Bronson was seen Yesterday fore
noon on Dakota avenue carrying box of
''La Intrinidads' and haggard counte-
nance. He accounted for the latter by say
ing, as he held out the open cigar box, that
he was up all night playing solitaire. It's a
boy.
The Ladies' Aid society will meet to-mor-
row afternoon at the rooms of the Y. NJ c..
A. An entertainment will be given at the
rooms Thursday evening.
The Brooklyn Gun club shoot was post.
poned from yesterday until to-day on ac-
count of the rain.
The citizens union will meet as usual to-
morrow evening to act upon matters of local
import.
