SHEEP SHEARINGS.

If all the lambs are grown to be put
on the market in summer, where is the
lamb for the winter market to come
from?
CARE must always be taken in put
ting any kind of oil or grease on
young chickens; too much will often
prove fatal.
ONE advantage with ducks is that
they grow rapidly and can be turned
into omoney in a short time-in less
time than almost any other fowl.
THE Iowa board of agriculture re-
CARDS it as "a shame" that so important
an industry as sheep husbaadry should
have to be abandoned because Of muir
derous dogs.
THERE is drawback in the use OF
bells on sheep by reason of greater ex-
citabilitv. A restless flock will run Off
more fat than the loss of ten sheep
would amount to.
IN Scotland there was a class of
sheep with black faces and legs called
s.collies,' from the Anglo-SaNon ''col. -
signifying black. The dogs which
looked after these sheep were called
collie dogs, which in time became
shortened to s'collies:" hence the name
which the sheep dog now bears.-N.

Editorial Comment on the italian Incident

SAN Francisco. April 4.-The morn
ing papers severely comment on the
course pursued by the Italian papers in
the United States. The Chronicle says
the italian papers printed in New York
CITY push the liberty of the press to its
extreme limit The editorial continues:
Italy has done her duty, and the
colony has cordially approved her
course. Were an American paper In
Italy to make such comment about the
Italian government it would be sup
pressed within an hour and its editors
thrown into prison"
The Alta says the recall of Fava has
furnished an opportunity for many ut
terances which we hope to see dis
avowed by responsible Americans OF
Italian birth The editors of Italian
pspers in Chicago and elsewhere nave
s.id that in the event of war ''Italians
in the United States will go home
That their going will be facilitated, II
not made easy. we have no doubt, but
this country does not want citizens who
talk of going home in time OF war

Hnw to Milk q Cow.

A correspondent of the New England
Homestead says: Here is a simple meth
cd for milking a kicking cow without
pain to her or to yourself. A COW can
not kick unless she can raise her back
p little. Put her in a narrow stall, make
holes in the sides on level with her
back. and put a stick through so that 1t
viii rest just above her back and come
q trife forward of her hips. Then when
she goes to kick, her back will touch
this and thus prevent her. If the cows
are in stanchions q frame may be fas-
tened over them so that the bottom OF 1t
will swing clear of their back. Put this
on hinges and pull up out of the way
when not in use.

acquainted with the provisions of the
law quoted will understand in what
manner the truth has been concealed
by a partial statement. The drawback
is only to be paid to those manufactur-
ers who seek foreign market with
their goods. If the products are to be
sold to BUYERS in the home market,
then no 80 per cent. is repaid by the
government. Mr.. Mckinley well knew
he was stating a falsehood, but he was
relying on that ignorance OF when ne

But there are other facts connected

from these imported raw materials be

made solely from imported raw materl-

STURT'S COTTON PLANT.

One of the Most Valuable Fodder Plants
of Australia.
Town and Country has within the
last two years illustrated many native
fodder plants of that Australasian coun-
try. Sturt's cotton plant (Gossypium
Sturtii) was lately illustrated in that
journal, and as it is said to be found in
the most arid portion OF Queensland
and other territory, we have repro
duced the engraving, thinking the plant
may be valuable in the warm and arid
regions of the United States. Town
and Country describes the plant as fol-
lows:
Our illustration shows rather tall
growing shrub, which is more or less
marked all over with black dots. The
leaves are arranged on long stalks, and
are broadly ovate in outline, entire,
firm and glaucous, the latter character
often giving the plant Slightly silvery
appearance which is quite a feature
in the landscape. The large flow
ers are arranged on short stalks in
the upper leaf axis. At Fig. 1
is illustrated al open flower the nat
ural color of which is purple with a
dark center, each petal being about
two inches long. The capsule is ovoid,
and copiously marked with black dots.

USELESS REPORTS.
Old Buncombe in His Great Act of En-
tightening Manufacturers.

Tightening Manufs cturars.
When the Mckinley administrative
bill went into effect. on the first of
August last, European manufacturers
entered vigorous protests against some
of its provisions, especially those relat-
ing to elements of cost. When the
other and worse Mckinley bill went
into effect, on the 9th of October, there
were still more energetic protests from
the same quarter. Mr.. Blaine thought
that the foreign manufacturers, like
American consumers, didn't under
stand the BILL and he set about the
work of enlightening them. His first
step was to instruct our ministers to
all the leading countries to inquire into
and report upon the real effects of the
new legislation. Evidently his object
was to instruct benighted foreigners,
for American consumers have no need
of reports from our foreign ministers to
inform them in regard to the effect of
the Mckinley tariff upon prices. The
reports, it is stated, are now coming IN,
and in course of time they Will be
printed. But we may venture to eX-
press a doubt whether foreign manu-
facturers will then understand the bill
any better, for they must necessarily
learn something about it from expert
ence, and upon them must our foreign
representatives depend for whatever in
formation they get to embody in their
reports. The consuls have been more
usefully employed under Mr.. Blaine's
direction in preparing reports on the
duties charged upon American mer-
chandise imported into the countries
where they reside, and on export duties
charged upon merchandise shipped
from those countries. These reports
may be of some use to Americans in
the foreign trade, since they are likely
to deal with facts. and to be something
better than mere apologies for Mckin,
