The Baltimore Sun gravely announces that
Mr.. Frank Brown, who has been nominated
for the Governorship Of Maryland. began his
political life" by accepting a clerical posi-
ton in a public warehouse This is the first
time that we have been informed that all the
clerks in public Offices should be looked upon
as being in political life, and that to secure
aposition in such OH Office is to be considered as
much an entrance upon political life as if
a senatorial or gubernatorial nomination had
been secured. Probably, however. the sun
in using the expression political life ms ap-
plicable to the first step which Mr. Brown
took to serve the people an expression, by
the way, equally applicable TO the man who
held the janitorship in the same warehouse,
WAS really indulging a spirit of irony at the
expense of the spoils system, which has done
so much in the past to affect the tone Of local
politics in Maryland, and especially in the
city Of Baltimore.

THERE seems to be very good ground for
the statement that all the members of the
English aristocracy whose incomes are drawn
from agricultural properties are on the edge
of comparative ruin. At the time that agri-
cultural values have declined. causing a
shrinksge both in the capital and the incomes
of the great English landowners, the expense
of keeping up their numerous establishments
has remained as heavy as ever. In Offering
Burghley House for sale the Marquis of Exeter
is probably taking the first step towards
adapting his expenses to his dwindling in
come. A large proportion of his ennobled as
sociates are in the same position, but it will
be found that very many of them lack that
spirit Of prudence which has led him to sub
NIT very promptly and without reserve to the
new economic conditions. The American
millionaire has always enjoyed an advantage
over the English nobleman in the fact that
he has. as a rule. only one great establishment
to keep up at an enormous cost A large part
of the income of the English nobleman is thus
absorbed without adding much 10 his ease,
however much it may add to his prestige.
THE New York World las recently exposed
itself to considerable criticism by covert re-
Elections upon the South, which as the facts
in each instance disclose were entirely unjust
1t devoted short time ago good deal of
space to showing that the agricultural inter
ests Of Virginia were in state Of even greater
collapse than was observable in the most
depressed sections Of the West, with far less
prospect OF final recuperation. The large
crops of wheat corn and tobacco reported
from every part Of the Commonwealth during
the present summer is very practical refuta-
ton Of the Worlds gratutous assertion. The
statement of the World with reference TO the
appearance Of yellow fever in Brunswick,
Ga. has been emphatcslly denied as being
without the slightest foundation in fact. Not
content with making this statement in con-
nection with Brunswick the World proceeded
70 represent the condition Of the whole
South as being very unhealthy and by infer
ence in consequence it was section which
should be avoided by immigrants, both from
abroad and from the North.

MULE R7is.NG IN ILLINOIS.
Method Pursued in the Banner Mule
County of That State.

Method Pursued in the Banner Mule
County of That State.
At your request l will give our way of
raising mules, and to begin will say that
they have been the most profitable stock
kept on the farm. This county (Jefferson)
has the credit of being the banner mule
county of the state, yet no breeds
them extensively. We buy the colts of
farmers one or more at a place to be de-
hvered on a certain date, usually in Sep
TENDER, and try to buy those sired by
good jacks and out of our best mares at
an average cost of about fifty dollars per
head. We collect as many at the same
time as we can conveniently, for the
more we have together the sooner they
become quiet and satisfied with their
new home.
After they have been kept in the barn
from three to six days with plenty of
grain and hay in reach and begin to get
quiet over the loss of their mothers, we
turn them to grass in the daytime with
q gentle mare for company. 1t is a sight
worth seeing when old Fannie comes up
at night with a score of these nimble,
playing, kicking youngsters close around
her, claiming kinship. They are kept in
Darn at night with plenty of grain and
hay until they are about 1 year old. when
grass gets well started. Then they are
turned to pasture and are no more trouble
than any other farm stock if you have a
good mule fence.
Our plan is to feed strongly (using only
such feed as is produced on the farm)
the second winter until they are farm
ed out" or loaned to neighbor farmers
conditionally-i. e., that they are to be
well fed and cared for, broken to work
at years old and returned the follow
ing summer. If the conditions are not
fulfilled the mules go to pasture earlier.
Our next feed time finds us with a
bunch about q years old ready for the
feed pen. 1t is best to have a good dry
barn for this purpose, as they will not ex-
ercise so much in a barn and their hair
gets in better shape. We keep their
feed troughs well supplied with corn,
cut oats, threshed oats and hay. giving
as much variety as we can for about 100
days or longer, and then we are ready
for market.
Most of them go to the southern trade,
which swallows up each years supply
with a keener relish than the one before.

How Fashions Are ORIGINATED.

The young and lovely Duchess de F.
had promised to take part in the opening Of
a charity bazaar at the Casino, in Trouville.
Unfortunately her ladyship was late in
dressing, n had to put on her gloves in
the carriage. On entering the hall, which
was full of people, the duchess, who wore
a silk dress of black and white check, per-
ceived to her horror that she had put on a
white and a black glove.
Her maid, it appears. had laid two pairs
of gloves ready for her mistress to choose,
and in her hurry the duchess had taken
one of each pair. She was desperately an
noyed at her mistake, but behold, her ap-
pearance in parti-colored gloves created
quite an impression, and since that day all
the ladies in Trouville lave been wearing
odd gloves to match the colors of their
dresses.-Le Phare du Havre.

Points of Interest.

The cattle mems time has come. But
the turn should have been made two
years ago, a man who has watched the
western ranges thinks. Then thousands
Of good breeding cattle would have been
saved and would have been in active
service now.
Recollect. don't put your stock upon
the spring pasture till it has made a
good start.
More and more specialization becomes
a factor Of success in stock raising as
elsewhere in this age. There must be
horses for running, horses for trotting
and horses for hauling heavy loads in
cities. There are also the carriage horse
and the saddle horse. The farmer who
proposes to go into horse breeding must
make up his mind which Of these spe-
cialties will best "go" in his locality, and
then proceed with all his powers of both
hand and brain to rear those kinds. The
labor of horses is now so diversified that
a horse specially adapted to farm pur-
poses will scarcely pay. The farmer
who wishes to sell a few horses every
yCdA oiiOu1d ScACCt Liz UIccu Will d. Wow
to city markets. A horse that is a fast
walker, and at the same time can pull
heavy loads. is the great desideratum for
an ordinary draught animal. The Clydes-
dale fills these requirements. The horse
for the very strongest and heaviest haul
ing of all is the Shire or Liverpool dock
horse. 1t is a fact that either of these
animals named will do farm work thor
oughly. So will the Percheron, and the
added advantage is that any of them
will bring a high price in city markets
at any time. ,>-.!. .~
The model farm horse is a quick
walker. one that can get over the ground
rapidly as well as draw a good heavy
load after him.
Don't overfeed your fowls. In the
wild, state even a chicken knows when
it has had enough, and never overfeeds.
But the civilized fowl has lost all its
wild sense and has no domesticated
gumption to take the place. Watch
carefully at feeding time and see how
much the birds will eat up clean with a
relish, and you can tell how much to
feed them.
It is an excellent plan to stir the
chicken feed up among leaves or dry
straw, SO that the fowls will have to
scratch for il. In this way they will ex-
ercise and not be Sc subject to leg weak
ness. .s$Ss n
