GEORGE LIVINGSTON, eldest son of E. J. Livingston, formerly a state senator of Oregon and member of the California assembly from Yuba county, died at his fathers home in Puenta, Cal, in dread ful convulsions and pam cau'ed by nicotine poison. The deceased was 14 years old. For four years he had been an inveterate smoker of cigarettes. Everything that his parents could do failed to check the habit. He was sent on a trip to Japan; he was offered $1, ,000 to stop; he was locked in his room for two weeks at time, but he would return to his cigarettes. For the past year he consumed over forty cigarettes a day and some days he would smoke over seventy. He even got up nights to smoke. He had been unwell fol several months and his skin assumed a peculiar yellowish hue, while his eyes became glossy and his respiration poor. His skin turned black after death. A post mortem examina- ton showed that his heart had been poisoned with nicotine.

Let's reason together. Here's a firm, one of the largest the country over; it has grown, step by step, through the years to greatness-and it sells patent medicines !--ugh!
 That's enough!'
 Wait little
 This firm pays the newspapers good money Expensive work, this adver- tising D to tell the people that they have faith in what they sell, so much faith that if they can't benefit or cure they don't want your money. Their guaran- tee is not inde finite and relative. but definite and absolute-if the medicine doesn't help, your money is Ion call"
 Suppose every sick man and every feeble woman tried these medicines and found them worthless, who would be the loser, you or they?
 The medicines are Dr Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery" for blood diseases, and his "Favorite Prescription" for woman's peculiar ills. If they help toward health, they cost $1.OO bottle each! If they don't, they cost nothing

ascend into heaven.
Do we as His followers realize the
urgency of these words? Are we.
each one i'm his place. doing our
part to speed His gospel? Does
the sotl of our hcathen brother
hang asa burden ON our consciences?
Must we not all confess that we are
all verify guilty concerning our
brother?

Florida Correspondence.
SUwANEE SULPHUR SPRINGS, }
FLORIDA, April 8, '91. (

LOhlDA, y pm % 81.
Mr.. Editor,-If some of my friends
should wonder how l happen to be
writing a letter from Florida in
stead of discharging my pastoral
duties at Bedford City, the ex-
planation is to be found in the
kindness and generosity of my con-
gregation. Finding that my old
enemy, rheumatism, threatened me,
my people not only kindly gave me
vacation, but very generously bore
the expenses of my journey, and l
desire to record, publicly, my CRATE
ful appreciation of such considera-
ton.
Coming South in search OF dry
soil and mild climate during the
trying period of early spring,
reached Suwanee Springs three
weeks ago last Saturday night, and
have been here ever since. So far
as the dry soil is concerned [ have
certainly found it, but if any one
thinks there are in the South only
balmy breezes, he is likely to be
rudely awakened from such
dream-certainly this year. Ever
since my arrival | have found the
same clothing | wear in Virginia
essential to comfort, and in no wise
oppressive, save, perhaps, on one or
two brief occasions, and day before
yesterday we had ice. However,
this season is exceptional, and most
of the time we have found the
weather delightful.
This is not typical Florida, for the
orange groves are nearly a hundred
miles South of us, and yet we have
much that is grateful to one in in
different health, and pleasing to the
eye. The station, from which we
are one mile distant, and with
which we connect by horse rail
road, is 173 miles southwest of
Savannah, on the Gainesville divis-
ion of the Savannah, Florida IL
Western railroad. We are in a high
rolling country, some 300 feet above
the sea, and some sixty miles from
the Gulf. We are directly on the
banks of the noted Suwanee river.
which flows through bluffs of white
sand and coquina, a formation of
ancient sea shells, from twenty to
forty feet high There is no swamp,
no malaria, and no fog. The soil
is sandy, with a substratum of
coquina, which uuderlies so much
of eastern Florida. If any one is
in search of a dry place it can as
suredly be found here, for after
hard rain of several hours duration.
not long ago, we were able to 90 out
in short time without overshoes.
and without getting our feet damp.
The forest growth is chiefly pine.
and the winds as they blow from
the Gulf or the Atlantic ore de-
prived of their moisture. Along
the river, however, there are groves
OF live oak covered with moss, whose
dark glossy green leaves are i'm
striking contrast with the emerald .
of the water oak, the maple and the
gum, just bursting into leaf. Be /.
tween lofty banks, covered with this I.
growth meander the almost Stvpian .
waters of the Suwanee, for the .
stream is such a very dark brown .
ln color as to be nearly black.
Immediately on the bank of the .
river is the Sulphur Spring, noted .

One strong recommendation for the
Lonks is that, being used to mountain
climbing and roughing il, they have
strong feet and hardy constitutions. TIL"
Same mountain climbing and outdoor
life give the mutton an excellent fayor,
somewhat like wild game. They are Xix.
American sheep in one respect, and thai,
is that their wool is very close grained
and hence they Will live and Thrive out
Of doors in severe weather.
These sheep arrive at maturity at Il
year old. Wethers are kept in England

then they arc disposed of q, mutton,
The breed is not well known in America

I've we'll if some Of the agricultural sta
tiOns would test the LOLks for several
years. Then breeders would know just
what they were. They give promise of
being highly desirable addition to our
breeds Of sheep, but there should be- Il
certainty in the matter. ono great OBJ
lection would be the huge, heavy horns
which adorn the heads Of these sheep,
but the horns could easily be taken off,
possibly bred off in course of time. IN
appearance the Louks are much like the

We have before remarked that it is
mistake to ship early beef this year,
while there is plenty Of grass il is still
green, and cattle, though they look
plump and fat, Will in fact shrink terri
bly,, If a common saying will be al
lowed, they are full Of wind and wa
ter" Our advice is, Don't ship range
cattle off the green grass; there is moth
ing in it. They will not make beef.
They are only fit for feeders. Wait till
the grass ripens and then give your beef
cattle time to get ripe on matured grass.

FEED FOR A HORSE AND COW.
what Arc tho Best and Most Economic
RationA.

Ration5.
J. II. G.. asks: /. What is tho proper
ration for an ordinary family horse Of
about 100 pounds? Both the hay and
grain are to be purchased in the open
market at current prices. 2. What is
the proper ration for grade COW having
very little pasturage? The COW is kept
for profit. The bulk of the milk, cream
and butter is used In the family.
Answer. A horse Of LOO pounds
live weight requires for performing or
binary work a daily ration equal to 22A
pounds Of dry food. For light work this
may DO reduced II pounds, and for hard
work should be increased to 25t pounds.
AS ordinary hay and grain contain about
10 per cent. of water, it is easy to calculate
the additional weight Of the food to make
up tho difference But the digestibility
of the food resulting from its condition
has an influence Of about 90 per cent, SO
that if the hay il cut and the grain
ground and both are mixed by wetting
the cut hay, 90 pounds of the food will go
as far as PSI pounds given whole. a
good ration for IN ordinary family horse
would be - pounds Of hay and Il TO 1G
pounds of grain or T. pounds Of oats and
corn mixed. There is very little choice
in the selection Of grain for horses, as
the market prices are always about
equivalent to the feeding value. But
whatever difference there J., is generally
in favor of corn. which. on account Of its
large supply, usuallythe cheapest grain.
For instance, just now corn sells for CT

In the hilly regions Of North England
is breed Of sheep rhat seems to be pecul-
iarly adapted ID just such climate and
conditions as we have in The mountain
ous districts VI PENNSYLVANIA, West Nir-
G.uia and the southern states. This breed
is called Lonk sheep from Lancashire,
England, their native home. The Lonks
seem better adapted for both wool and
mutton sheep than almost any other
breed known. Tho wool is Of medium
iineness, of the class of combiug woods,
and from five to seven niche, long. Ewes
yield five pounds; wctaers, seven to eight,
while rams sometimes run as high as
twelve pounds. \ Lonlt wether, fattercd
for market, weighs from 100 to l20
