COMING WEEK I'm CONGRESS.

Work Mapped Out By Beth Branches
ofCongress-The silver q question t. be
the Absorbing Feature I'm the House
other Bills.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 20.-The
worlds fair bill emes up Monday in the
senate as the special order, and Mr.. Hawley,
who has the bill in charge, will insist upon
its consideration.
There is likely to be some debate on it's
various provisions a. Messrs. Blackburn and
Vest expect to speak. If the bill is finished
on Monday the District of Columbia appro-
priation bill, which Mr.. Plumb has given
notice he will call up will be next in order.
This, however, can be disposed of in one
day. The land forfeiture bill Is
on the program, but may be
laid aside to take up the administrative GUS
toms bill. upon which there will be consider-
abie..discussion, although the bill has already
passed the senate very nearly in its present
form. There is no particular hurry about
the land forfeiture bill, but from the efforts
made by Mr.. Plumb to have 1t take preced-
ence last Friday, there is chance that he
Will make another effort this week, and If it
gets up 1t is likely to be the subject for Fri
days debate. Saturday the senate takes up
the calendar.
The business of the house during the week
may be greatly influenced by the caucus of
republican representatives on the silver
question. Should satisfactory bill be
agreed upon in the caucus, it will be brought
up for discussion and pushed to conclusion
before the end Of the week. This
is the disposition at present. Other
matters Of general interest will also
be brought forward in the house. Monday
will be suspension day, but it has been
agreed to let the regular order go by the
board and to take up the conference report
on the Oklohoma territorial bill. This IL q
privileged matter and takes precedence Of
nearly all other business. The judiciary
committee is anxious to bring up the national
bankruptcy bill during the week and will
probably succeed in doing so after the ap-
propriations committee gets the legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation bill out
of the way. There Is also chance that the
judiciary committee may call up the COPY
right bill. No agreement has been reached
between the leaders of the two sides of the
house concerning the tariff discussion, but
Mr.. Mckinley wants to have it begin during
the first week in May and his plan will prob
ably be carried out.

be some inferior lambs; take these out
and put them in small pasture lot by
themselves, and if possible sell them to
the first buyer that comes along. Your
flock of lambs is more valuablewithout
them. Like all young and growing
stock, the lamb must have the best of
care and attention from the time it is
dropped until it is one year old, If you
expect to make it profit. Our good
results have all come from lambs under
these conditions.
Proper feeding is matter of particu-
lar moment. Sheep are peculiar as to
their taste for food. They will not eat
what does not suit them, and. If their
likes and dislilles are not humored, will
lose in flesh rapidly. Our most success
full sheep breeders in New England and
| the middle wool growing states advocate
feeding sheep three times daily, but only
as much as they will eat up clean. Toe
liberal feeding is mistaken kindness,
and when carried to extremes the results
are very injurious. Another matter OF
paramount importance is that you KEEP
plenty of salt before your sheep. They
will eat but a very little at time, but
they need it often, and it is very healthy
Besides, the cost is a mere trifie.

The Care of Colts.

Colts are often fed nothing but hay
through the winter, and sometimes that
of poor quality. This is poor policy, and
the result is the colts growth is nearly
stopped, and what little takes place is
uneven. A correspondent in The New
York Tribune states the matter correctly
when he says that the medium sized colt
should be fed for the first two or three
months after weaving time one quart of
oats mixed with the same quantity of
wheat bran and gill of oilmeal morn
ing and night. The bran, aside from be-
ing nutritious, tends to keep the colt free
from worms, while the oats are excellent
to make superior muscle and form a good
quality of bones. The oiimeal aids diges-
ton and keeps the bowels in order.
AS the winter advances this ration
may be gradually increased to one-half
more, or perhaps be doubled by March
or April. The stable of the colt should
have an earth floor, as standing on boards
OF any hard substance is injurious to the
feet end ankles, they having not yet be-
come solid and firm, and it often engen-

out into dry yard every pleasant day
for exercise; this is absolutely necessary
to secure good, even growth of bone
