WORCESTER, Mass, Sept. 10.-The
q state Prohibition convention assembled
here this morning. The following NOM
nations were made For lieutenant
governor, George Kempton, of Sharon;
secretary OF state, George D. Critten-
den, of Buckland; attorney general,
Wollcott Hadlin, OF Amherst; treasurer
and receiver-general, William H. Glea-
son, of Boston; auditor, August r.
Smith, Of Lee.
The state committee reported that
they had engaged the Rev. John H.
Hector, of California, commonly known
as the Black Knight of Prohibition, to
work in this state until election.
The platform demands the elimina-
ton of the liquor traffic from foreign
commerce, interstate trade and home
enterprise. 1t is set forth that the
Republican party willingly embodies it's
temperance virtues in a president who
gives bibulous banquets; vice-presi-
dent who sets up affairs to Bacchus on
his own premises, and senate which
refuses to Danish King Alcohol from it's
capitol and places the leading liquor
sellers of the country on its important
committees.
The platform further declares that
both the Republican and Democratic
parties are so complicated with corrupt
corporations, that no reform can be ex-
pected of them; asks all prohibitionists
ofwhatever views on the tariff to unite
in denouncing the sale of the presidency
of the country in consideration of the
surrender of every other industry to
worldly manufacturers who retain con-
nection with the liquor interest and con-
troll the Republican party, and calls
upon all fair minded men to repudiate
the bargain and bill which is it's friend.

SCARCITY OF CATTLE.

When the Present Stock of Feeders are Ear
keted Where viii the Next Come FJom?
There are simply no native steers east
of the Mississippi river, was the remark
gentleman made to the writer the Other
day after an extended trip TO that coun-
try. The same is true of Iowa Nebraska
and part of Kansas if we exclude those
now in the feed lots eating corn prepara-
tory for the shambles. There are many
of these, but we doubt if more than COM
mon this time of the year.
The question then presents itself,
where will the steers come from that are
to take the places made vacant when
these ripened cattle are gone? Mon ana,
Wyoming, Colorado and the territories
west cannot supply 200, 900 this year, If
all shipments are sold for feeders. This
is less than thirty days supply for the Chi
cago market alone Arizona, New Mexico
and the Indian Territory and Texas
are the only resources. Kansas has alb
sorbed $50 900 from these countries al
ready this spring to feed on grass and
grain, designing to market them from
Christmas on into the spring and summer
of 1891. Those sections still have a few
steers unsold, but if the local papers tell
the truth the number is comparatively
small. 1t is universally admitted in
Texas that the steer crop is smaller than
it was a year ago-there has been q cut
ting down year by year since 1887.
If the Southwest is our main reliance
for beef steers; if the number there IS
smaller than the past; if the corn states
are out of steer cattle does it not begin
70 look as if the time had come when
stockmen and farmers should husband
their cattle resources?
The supply viii! continue liberal until
the steers now eating corn are disposed
of and under q decline in the foreign
markets prices may stiffen slowly.
But when these are gone, then what?
Prices must advance even without a
foreign demand, for the simple and very
good reason that the fattening pens can
only be filled up to the present standard
of Plumbers by the purchase of yearlings.
Make money by feeding to ripeness the
cattle you now have in your lots if it
takes until Murch, 1891. The future is
bright with hope, Notwithstanding
break in the foreign market. Hold on.

ROUND.UPS.
The Question of Crossing Thoroughbred
Stock With Trotters Discussed.
The Inspection Bill to be Reported Favora-
bly, to the senate-The scarcity of Cattle
VIII Bring Good Prices.

While the subject of thoroughbred
blood in trotters is now attracting con-
siderable attention among the breeders
Of trotters. and is being discussed pro
and con by some of the ablest turf writ
ers, it is deemed in place to bring to the
attention of our readers q few facts in
favor of the above cross. The perform
ances of Senator Stanford s PaIo Alto,
2:l2ii and SunOl, 2:l012 at 3 years, has
done more TO advance this theory of
breeding than any turf event of recent
, years Palo Alto is by Electioneer, dam
Dame Winnie, by Planet, u strictly thor
Oughbred mare. Sunol is by the same
sire, dam Wakans, by General Benton,
second dam Waty, thoroughbred
daughter of Lexington. The perform
auces of these two record breakers are of
too recent date TO require extended COM
ment in an article like this, and are
merely submitted for the benefit of those
OF our readers who do not pretend to
keep up with turf records.
One of, if not the strongest arguments
in favor of strong infusion of thorough
blood in the trotters, is a statement
made recently by M. Lucas Brodhead,
manager of the celebrated WOODBURY.
stud, which in substance is as follows:
Alexander Abdallah and Pilot, Jr.,
two of the lending slres of their day,
spent the last two years of their lives at
Woodburn. Between them they sired
just thirty FLIES, sixteen of whom were
out of mares without any near cross of
thorough blood. the remaining fourteen
being ont of strictly thoroughbred mares.
out of the sixteen standard trotting-
bred fillles. three only produced 2:3O
trotters, viz:
Black Rose, dam of Darkness, 2:2754.
Primrose, dam of Redwald, 2:2S14,
and Ichi Ban, 2:2S.
Hermosa, dam of Hermes, 2:27.
The average time of the four being
fraction better than 2:2SA.
on the other hand, six of the fillies
out of thoroughbred or running mares
were producers as follows:
Miss Russell, dam of Maud S, :0S34;
Nutwood, 2:1S24; Cora Belmont, 2:241a;
Russia, 2:2S.
Midnight, dam of Jay Eye See, 2;l0,

Nightingale, 2:2S$4.
Making a total OF thirteen performers,
whose average record is shade over
2:2lL us against four with an, average
of 2:2sl4.
This is a case where the records speak
for themselves.
II is not claimed that any thorough
bred mare bred 10 a standard sire viii
produce a race horse or record breaker,
or that it would be wise tor breeders 10
discard their standard mares and replace
them with thoroughbreds. The science
OF breeding is yet in an experimental
stage and we only suggest that in view of
past results judicious mixture OF thor
ough with standard blood cannot fail of
producing good results. Because we be-
lieve that the coming two-minute horse
will be by standard sire out of thor
Oughbred dam is far from being proof
positive that such will be the case.

Pure Bred Bulls.

We believe we are speaking within the
lines of truth when we say there are not
half a dozen herds in the entire South
west that are sufficiently well supplied
with bulls. The proper thing to do now,
then is 10 buy pure bred bulls, and at
once commence an active improvement
in quality. Buy no more grades of any
breed. There will be market at good
prices for all the beef you can raise from
this time on and the better the quality
the more money. Secure the best and
lose no time in doing it. You cannot
afford to waste your time with scrub or
grade stock. Study this question and
you will see where intelligence leads.

rHE SECRET OF SUCCESS.

While Money Will Buy Good Herd of Cat
tie it VIII Not Keep the Herd Good.
There is deal of practical wisdom in
the essay read by farmer to the South
lately on starting breeding herd. Some
persons are foolish enough to think that
if they just had money enough to pur-
chase Il good herd to start with, that they
could soon become noted as breeders aud
accumulate fortune in q short time.
Such one might just as well invest his
money in q law or medical library and
set up as a lawyer or doctor, or buy
piano aud advertise himself as q music
teacher. If money is all, or the main
thing necessary, was wrong when /
esaid our business is as much profession
as any other. If was right then, am
right now, when say that 10 follow any
profession requires study aud discipline
and long years of patient labor. Money

may buy good herd but whether it does
even that or not depends good deal on
the man into whose hands it is placed.
You, nor l, might not succeed in buying
good piano OF steam engine, not for
the lack OF money, perhaps, but because
we might not know good one when we
should see 1t.
l would rather take the chances of
final success, of the intelligent young man
who has just money enough to spare to
purchase one good female and take her
twenty miles TO find the proper mate,
and slowly build his herd up from her
as foundation, than the man of means ),
with but little or no experience, who
purchases whole herd to commence
with, however good the herd might be q.
The one, without making any noise about
it, will gradually build up his herd and
correct his mistakes, while the other
will rush into numerous prints, adver-
tise himself as an extensive breeder of
the fanciest strains of his chosen breed,
while he will be unable to maintain, for
any length of time, the reputation that
his money, and his money alone, has
given him. do not, 1 hope, UNDER
value the judicious use of money, in the
purchase and use of printers ink, if in
the hands of the already successful
breeder, but as a means to be relied
upon to attain success place little value
upon it. Many are too anxious to let the
world know that they are breeders ana
spend time and money for that PURPOSE,
before they are certain of the fact thefA-
selves. would, therefore, say to al
and especially to young breeders, he
patient, strive for individual excellence
and herd uniformity, and let your works
speak louder in your favor than words of
purchased praise. "a
