When to Shear the Sheen.

Early shorn sheep winter much bet
ter than others. Recently met with
a pretty good judge, in whose opinion I
concur that late-shorn sheepdo not win
ter so well, with as much thrift or as
little mortality, as those that are di-
vested Of their old tleeces early in the
season of spring feed. Indeed it is
sasy to perceive that sheep, if young
and growing, that have not made good
growth, or if full grown have not fully
recuperated from their condition usual
ly preceding spring feed, before the,
FIRST and best half of the grass season
has passed, cannot be in as good condi-
lion or possess as much vigor and
'obustness with which to meet and
combat the inclemency of the weather.

DEEP SEA FISHING.
A New Means of Securing Enormous
Quantities of Fish.


Plentiful as anglers are and success
full as they are with rod and line, TAX
ing even newspaper accounts of their
success as true, the fish taken with
sporting tackle would go but very lit
tie way toward feeding our people with
fish. The great bulk of the fish are
caught by commercial fishermen, who
use nets of one kind or another, or
quantities of hooks on lines without
pretense of rod or pole. The failure of
this kind of fishing does not alarm the
sportsman, nor does an increase in it
cause him Joy, but everything which re-
lates to it is of great interest, ncverthe-
less. Commercial fishing in the sea is
confined almost entirely to the ''off.

in and sold. 1t is estimated that this
schooner caught two hundredand forty
tons of fish with the beam trawl in
few days. The catches were so great
that it was with the utmost difficulty
that the trawl was handled. This is a
brief statement as slight index of the

HABITS oF The PoRcuPINE.
Not SO Quiet and Inofensive as Com

Not SO Quiet and InoHensive as Com
monty Supposed.
A recent writer speaks of it as the
quiet, inoffensive little creature that
curls itself into a ball at the first APP
proach of an enemy" I have seen
thousands of them in our pine woods
not so very little, but inoffensive, I'M
less you object to their appetite for
pack straps, shoes and salt pork But
whoever saw one curl itself into a ball
when molested.
If you bother porcupine he will
make few awkward attempts at a
gallop toward the nearest tree, raising
the quilts on his back somewhat as a
dog 'bristles his crest" when excited.
After reaching his tree he will make
short work of putting himself out of
reach of all weapons of shorter range
than firearms.
The tradition about his rolling him
self into ball, although not so bad as
the quill shooting story, is, think, en-
tirely wrong when attributed to the
American porcupine. l think this be-
lief comes from the books, where the
habits of the English hedgehog arc de-
scribed. This l understand to be a
much smaller animal than ours, feeding
on insects and perhaps fruit.
Our porcupine has for steady diet
the bark of trees, usually maple, but
around old logging camps he finds such
delicacies as old boot packs, pork bar
rels and old cook house slush; in fact
anything containing salt or fat in any
form. He is an adroit thief, and if you
give him chance will steal a pack
strap or a shoe from under the walls of
your tent while you are dreaming on
your bed of balsam or hemlock boughs.

AUniaue Dressinc-Gown,

One of the latest novelties in the way
of dressing gowns is the Chinese robe,
Its simplicity is its chief charm. The
goods must be narrow and cut in two
straight pieces the length of the figure
and sewed to the neck both front and
back. A small gore is placed in the
breadth next to the back. A straight
piece of the goods is then sewed to-
gether and placed from the shoulder to
the gore to form the sleeves. When
made from white or blue crepe lined
with shrimp-pink silk it is pretty and
unique dressinggown. The half-sleeve,
falling back, reveals just enough of a
dimpled arm to be enticing, and the soft
fold of the goods clinging to the neck
presents quite a fascinating effect. If
desired, the front pieces can be crossed,
and silk cord and tassel tied loosely
around the waist jauntily holds it in its
