Notes.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 30.-Ths Presi-
dent sent to the house yesterdays message
vetoing the bill for the erection of a public
building at Dallas, Tex. The bill made an
appropriation of 500, 900 for the construc-
ton of an addition TO the building com
pleted in 1889 The president calls
attention to the fact that the bill as intro
duced in the house provided for an appro-
priation of 500 600, and that the committee
on public buildings and grounds, after
consultation with the supervising architect
of the treasury department, recommended
the appropriation OF that amount.
The First Amount Sufficiently Large.
The postmaster at Dallas says the presi-
dent claims that the additional accom-
mediation needed will require the erection
of an addition two-thirds as large as the
present building. The supervising archi-
tect wrote to the senate committee that an
addition larger than was required could
be erected for the amount at first proposed
-sl0O,0O Under the conditions the pres
ident belives the proposed appropriation
too large and he therefore vetoes the bill.
Some Advice to Congress.
Following the statement of his reasons
for the veto the president says: The leg
islation for the erection of public build
ings has not proceeded, so far as can
trace it, upon any rules. Neither popula-
ton nor the extent of the public business
transacted has always indicated the points
where public buildings should first be
built or the cost of the structures. :
|. The bills are individual and ii compari-
sons are attempted, the necessary element
| of probable future growth is made TO coy
| er all apparent inequalities.
Other Matters To BE Considered.
Il am not unfriendly to liberal annual
expenditure for the erection of public build
| ings where the safe and convenient trans
action of the public business demand it,
| and the state of the revenues will permit.
But in view of the pending legisla-
| ton looking to very large reduction of
| our revenues, and the urgency and neces-
| sity of large expenditure in certain direc-
| lions, ] am of the opinion that appropria-
| tions for the erection of public buildings
and all kindred expenditures should be
kept al the minimum until the effect of
| other probable legislation can be accurately
measured
General ". Local Interests.
THE erection of a public building il
| largely a matter OF local interest and con
venience, while expenditures for enlarged
| relief and recognition TO the soldiers and
| sailors of the war for the preservation of
the Union, for necessary coast defenses and
| for the extension of our commerce with

| terest and involve considerations not of
convenience but of justice, honor, safety

better still, drink it hot. Hot milk
seems to lose good deal of its density:
you would almost think it had been

of its sweetness, which is cloying TO

If the poor only knew and appre.

RAISING JACKS.
Some Hints from One who Has Had Eek.


perience.
How to breed good jack? A big ques-
ton and worthy of veteran, but we
will give our experience, not that it will
be of any benefit to any body, but that
the defects in our system may be point
ed out.
First, select iennet not under four
teen hands Highland higher if you can
get the right shape-with fine head and
ear, long neck. all the length of body
you can get fine, large, broad bone,
broad hips and chest and we'll flanked
down, and all the weight and style that
a frame of the kind can carry. Next, find
jack of this type but let him not be less
than 15JI hands high, and of course let
them both be black with white points,
bred either in April or September. We
rather favor spring, but the fall breed
ing has its many merits, and after your
iennet has stood put her in a quiet grass
lot with other jennets, and never with
violent. wild stock, and have a stable in
winter and stable or shed in summer
and keep her out of all rains. Good
grass is the best feed for her, but in
winter, and when there is no grass, a
reasonable quantity of well-cut sheaf or
shelled oats, with plenty of good hay,
is the best feed, with enough good
bran to keep her regular. You
must never forget her but keen
your eve on her, and as the
time approaches for her to foal your
watch must be more vigilant. If you
have not some place for her to foal in,
build you shed, tight at bottom and
planked up on the sides, with folding
windows, both from top and bottom, to
air and dry the breeding pen out. And
we might put in one corner a room
planked up five, and six feet square,
and put in fiue for stove and cot for
watcher, about ten days before she is
due. Put her in this shed. and put an
other jennet in an adjoining stall to
the breeding pen, with slat door
between, and await developments.
Take the precaution to cut some
soft straw about two inches long and
cover the floor three inches deep with
this. If in winter when she shows
signs of distress, build you fire in your
stove and tell her to proceed. She la
bors in comfortable quarters and brings
back jack colt. He is weak, perhaps,
have tin mouth in shape of a gourd
with large nipple on it, and as soon
as the jennet gets up, milk some milk
from the jennet and put the nipple in
the colts mouth and you will find him
ready, and in a few minutes he will be
up. Direct him gently to the jennet
and get him to take hold, ana then the
watcher may go to bed.-Cor. 1ennes-

Sir John SincIaIr's Attempt to Establish

Sir John SincIair's Attempt to Establish
NightIogaies In Scotland.
The nightingale arrives in England
about the 18th of April, and for the re-
maindcr of the month its song is heard
on every side. Later it occupies itself
with nest-building, rearing its young,
and domestic affairs generally, and its
tuneful voice is hushed. The migration
of the nightingale to and in England
seems to be conducted in due north
and south direction. 1t never gets
farther north than Carlisle, just south
of the Scottish border. Sir John Sim
clair, acting on the general rule that
migratory song-birds almost always re-
turn to their native haunts, endeavored
to establish the nightingale in Scotland
The experiment was conducted on a
large scale, and the result was con-
sidered as decisive. Sir John commits
stoned London dealer TO buy as many
nightingale eggs as he could get at the
price of one shilling each. These Were
carefully packed in wool, and sent to
Scotland by mail. A number OF trust
worthy men had previously been en-
gagged to find and take especial care of
as many robin-redbreasts' nests as DOS
sible. in places where the eggs could be
Matched in perfect safety. AS regularly
as the parcels of eggs arrived from Lon
don the robins eggs were removed
from the nests. and replaced by those Of
