DANA'S SARSAPARILLA CURES.

For the first month or two after being
weaned lambs should not be expected tc
display much sense, and the shepherd
should exercise the greatest patience and
gentleness of which he is capable. Al
its best estate OF maturity the sheep is a
wonderfully vacuous and stupid animal,
and weaned lamb seems to know as
nearly nothing as cain be imagined. II
will jump a dozen ways within five min
utes, scared by imaginary bogeys, and all
attempts to force it along in rational
straight line result only in an idiotic zig
gag or milling" in a circle. If the old
crone or some pet can be tolled along
generally all will follow and the problem
will be solved.

.Baskins in the sun is in itself Of

no compliment 10 our human intelligence
to md that cats and dogs understand that
fact much better than we do. Even the
blue glass craze had a truth undcrly ing
it. and owed such success As il achieved
to the proportion OF sunlight which pen
ctrated is coored medium. The love OF
sunshine is naturally one of our strongest
instincts, and we should be tdr healthier
and happier it we followed and developed
it instead OF practically ignoring and re-
pressing il. How i sparkling. sunny
morning exhilarates Us and makes us feel
that Its too tine day to spend indoors
and yet how few holidays are taken fof
that reason.
The wealth OF the sunbcams Is poured
out layishly all around us, and We turn

shining. but not halt so likely 10 bring us

DANA's ABSOLUTELY CURES D1sEAsE

AT recent discussion before the Wis
consin board of agriculture, some very
interesting and instructive matter was
brought cut. Prof. Craig said sheep hus-
bandry has three profits in it-hrst to the
farm, in that it makes it cleaner. Sheep
eat mort plants than any other variety of
stock and they thus clean up weeds
They make the farm more productive and
richer. Second, it brings profit in the
food given them. If they are charged
with all the feed they get and are credited
with what they produce the account will
show profit. The third profit is in the
sheep itself Mutton can be grown at
three cents pound which will sell at five
cents; or if it costs one cent more it will
probably sell for that much in addition.
There are three lines in which sheep hus-
bandry in the state will bear extension !;
first the making of mutton; second, the
raising of lambs and third, the growing
of wool, and they are mentioned in the
relative order of their impor ance.

stamps him a man or failure. One may
have many strong points, may possess
characteristics which stamp him a man

the most that can be judged. and the

this season will be fully 500, 900 packages.
The late opening OF the season was a
