Old Horses Not Economical.

1t is not good economy to keep old
horses where heavy work is required.
They are only valuable rs they are
handy for the women to drive, being
safe, we'll broken. and not liable to
run away or break harness and car
riage. Blu: Whenever heavy straining
is to be done the old horse can only do
the work by being heavily fed, aud
thus stimulated into doing more than
unstimulated it is capable of doing.
Double the grain ration is needed, and
oven with this tho old horse will be
poor, while ono in its prime will keep
fat on hard work, and the harder it is
the better he likes it

More Than Two Thousand Desertcrs.

In his message the Secretary OF
War says: The number OF assertions
from the army for the twelve months
ending September 30 were 2,086, as
against ?, 75l for the same period last
year, a decrease of "a per cent. This
result is due to such improvements in
the service as could be accomplished
under existing legislation. Although
assertions are already greatly re-
duced, so long us they continue in any
considerable numbers they must have
u bad effect upon the morale of the
army and entail large and needless
expense. The practical solution OF
this somewhat veXed question assumes
three phases: First, how to make the
service more desirable: second. how
to remove the artificial restraints
which, by binding man inhexibly to
long service which has become dis
tasteful to him, naturally drives him
to desperate means; third, how to
make the punishment for the crime so
certain that IL more worthy motives
fail men, may be warned by its fear.
AS to the second and third there is
legislation enough. ut least with our
present experience. With respect to
the first there is, | think, need OF
more.

Dead Tips In Wool.

Experienced wool buyers will not
take the wool from poor farmers with
out large reduction In price, there are
so many dead tips" in it. This is
the technical name for wool that grew
while the sheep was suffering from ex-
posture, from lack OF food or from in
digestion caused by improper feeding.
Dead tips are deficient in strength,
and can only be used in making in
ferior cloth. II the sheep regains
strength and health the wool is not
materially helped. as the new growth
is usually too short TO be Of much use.
1t is not generally exposure to
storms that causes this poor wool. II
sleeps digestion is good, the oily
matter exuded from the skin prevents
rains from penetrating. The outside
of the wooden covering may be wiring
ing wet. but the inside is dry. But il
the digestion is injured either by too
much or too little food, the sheep suf-
fers severely from storms.

1t Is, therefore. bad sign when poul-
try growers begin to reckon prospect
i've profits according to the rule OF
three. Experience proves that the
business is not generally worked by
that rule. Nobody should keep over
winter moro fowls than he has accom-
modations for. The best rule we
know for most farmers who keep
fowls is to kill off all their surplus
ROSTERS each fall or winter, and also
to weed out the undesirable pullets
One or two thoroughbred ROSTERS
may DO kept with few hens for breed
ing. AS for the eggs to be cooked or
sold for cooking. 1t does not matter
whether the hens that lay them are
ever mated or not. The hens lay
more in number and OF better keep
ing eggs II they are never mated.
By continuing this plan few years,
selecting all the time the best hens for
breeding. the flock will soon be as
good as thoroughbreds. and II the
breeder uses good judgment 1t may
for laying be better. First crosses are
often better layers than the pure breds.

The sulky Man.

IF the temper is a sullen or sulky one,
its malignant character is apparent;
probably he has some little cause for
taking offense, or he has at least an op-
portunity for imagining that he has been
sighted. He persuades himself that
some one has been wanting in the affec-
ton or respect which is his due. He feels
himself insulted, injured; and he has not
magnanimity enough to pass over the
matter without taking care that the
slight offered should be expiated by suf
fering. His self love demands that some
one should suffer; and the suffering of
the victim although he might be shocked
to think SO and might refuse to believe
it-affords him certain satisfaction and
a certain pleasure.
When the offender has been made to
feel that it is no light matter to neglect
the comfort of the i'll tempered man, or
to prefer any other interests to his, when
he or she has been made thoroughly
miserable, the sulky man is appeased; he
is perhaps even penitent; his demon has
been grati6ed, and is no longer hungry.
The fact that the bad temper, with its
symptoms. of black looks or harsh words
or sullen silence, was maintained until
the suffering of the victim became evi-
dent is enough to show that sulldness is
really much worse kind of fault than
people generally imagine = Chambers
Journal.

To Become in Time One OF the FIRST Inn
portance to the Country.


portance to the Country.
SAN Francisco, April 15.-At a meet
ing of the Alameda Sugar company the
president, Isaac Hecht, reported that the
books showed a profit for the year 1890
81 of $21 600, which, with the profit of
the year previous, makes the net balance
for two seasons $27, 900. This money has
been applied in part payment for per-
manent Improvements, leaving the com
pany still in debt $35 900, against which
there is on hand $15 900 in seed, material
and molasses. To cover the indebted
ness and put the company on solid
financial basis, an assessment OF four
dollars share has been ordered. On
account of the probable shortage in the
sugar beet crop the directors have ad-
vanced the price of beets from $3.50 to
$500 per ton. The president also re-
ferred to the probable necessity of re-
moving the companv's works from AL
yarado. The beet sugar industry, said
Mr.. Hecht in conclusion, must in time
become of first Importance to the state
and country. The income last year
from 1920 acres in beets averaged about
800 an acre, while $25 an acre for wheat
land is considered good.

New YORK, April 16.-The Herald's s

Blaine is known to be thoroughly in
censed at what he had not hesitated
privately to characterize as the con-
temptible and indecent behavior of the
Italian government. His note indicates
his pen has felt the numerous communi-
cations received about himself and other
members of the cabinet since the diplo-
matte controversy began. These com
munications are from leading men of all
parties and professions, and they uni
formly urge upon the administration the
irmest treatment of the offensive conduct
of the Italian government, consistent
with our national dignity and self-res-
pect. 1t is confidently asserted and pre-
kdicted in authoritative circles here that
the publication of Blaine's note yester-
day will lead to the downfall of the Ru-

The secretary replied that the depart

principle which the department wanted
to have established in the matter was
the protection of American revenues.
The department would treat these goods
precisely as though entered at New

4 Conductor,s suavity.

A Pennsylvania railroad conductor on
one of the limited trains between New
York and Washington the other night
entered the first coach, found it crowd
ed, and in one of the front seats upon
the left was young man. He was well,
even elegantly, dressed. In his hand he
held French novel. Upon his small
and ordinary countenance there sat the
naughty look of reserve of the imitation
gentleman.
When the conductor entered and called
for the tickets this youthful person af-
fected to be so absorbed in his book that
the conductor passed him by, calling
first upon the rest of the passengers,
even going clear through the train be-
fore he returned to disturb the naughty
reader. When the conductor came back
the young person still refused to pay any
attention. The conductor waited a mo-
ment and then called out rather sharply
for his ticket.
The youthful and now thoroughly
contemptuous person, noticing that the
man, whom he called the guard of the
train, had addressed him with some
brusqueness, which he translated into
rudeness, took his ticket and, without
looking at the conductor, threw it upon
the floor. The graduate of the Pennsy1-
vania school of manners was fully equal
to this unusual situation. He showed
no temper, no excitement, nor any lack
of repose. With the calm gravity of a
man who is sure of himself he stopped to
the floor, punched the fallen ticket the
requisite number of times with great
gravity, and then quietly laid it back
upon the floor where it had been dropped
and walked calmly on amid the roars of
the entire Cart. G. Crawford in New
York Tribune. 3yal 1t5
