SHEEP SHEARINGS.


SHEEP are naturally healthier thar
other animals.
ARRANGE the sheep sheds SO as tc
avoid direct draft.
THE way to keep flock of sheep ur
is to keep culling.
MUTToN is a convenient meat for the
farmer at this time.
WHEN the purchaser seeks the pro
ducer the best prices are obtained
ONE of the best ways of keeping
sheep healthy is to keep them comfort
able.
No POOR sheep should ever be bred as
it increases the number of undesirable
animals.
A FARM may be overstoclxed with
sheep as with other animals, but it is
rarely done now.
WHEN making a special effort to i'm.
prove three-year-old ram it will give
the best results in breeding.
MORE attention to the sheep and less
attention to the tariff might enable
many to realize profit where they
now fail.
The sheep is the small farmers friend
because with them they can convert
into a good product much that would
otherwise go to waste. Farmers Voice.

FEEDING ANIMALS.

Rations Must Vary with the Age of stock

ing.
Some animals fatten readily, while
others seemingly under the best of treat.
ment make a slow gain. An animal
that fattens easily is usually healthy,
strong, and of an easy temperament,
rarely frets, takes life in moderate
way, and has good appetite as well
as q good digestion. On the other hand,
an animal that is hard to fatten is often
restless, frets more or less, especially
if restrained, and is frequently poor
eater; or if it is hearty eater it lacks
good digestive or assimilative powers.
OF course there is little satisfaction and
less profit in handling this class of ami
mails, The same or less feed given to
one animal of a good disposition Sc
cures much better gain at a less cost
than if given to one of poor disposition.
This is an important item in buying
stock to feed, either for growth or to
fatten, and as much skill or Judgment
is required in selecting and buying ami
mails to feed as in feeding. When
stock is being fed on narrow margin
of profit, the one class of animals will
return a certain profit and the other
less profit, even when given the same
management. One advantage in breed
ing and raising stock to maturity is
that the farmer, if he gives them proper
attention, will understand the condi-
tion of them better than those he pur-
chases, and he should be able to feed
and manage SO as to derive large
amount of profit AS it is the profit
that the farmer is working for it is i'm
portant to take every advantage to in
crease it as much as possible, and one
way of doing this is to feed such ami
mails as will make the best return for
the amount of food supplied. Prairie

Remedy for Foot Rot.

Some one once sent to the editor OF
the Farmers Voice the following rem
edy for foot rot in sheep: Take equal
parts in weight of red lead and pulver-
lied blue vitriol; add enough nitric acid
to make thick paste; after pairing the
hoof until all the diseased parts will be
well exposed, apply with paddle.
Sheep should remain in house with a
dry floor twenty-four hours after being
treated, unless the weather is quite
dry, when we much prefer turning on
dry, short sod, but care should be
taken to prevent sheep from crossing
streams or mud. With three applica-
tions of this remedy, says the gentle
man, wo cured our flock of several
hundred last July so effectually that
we have not even trimmed toe since
and have had no lame sheep.

same time in one, and much of the time
two, mission schools meeting at differ
ent hours.
In 1871, after the great fire, he left
home and wi th three other young men,
whom he persuaded TO join him, rented
rooms in one of the poorescand rough
est parts of the burnt district of North
Chicago, and gave himself to relief and
mission work. Here he started "Ev-
erybody's Mission" in German beer
hall and theater, afterwards removed to
a building of its own. This mission,
with an attendance of $50 to $50, made
up of some of the worst elements, he
sustained for five years without tinan-
cial aid from any church or society. He
has since organized and superintendent
North Avenue Mission, Lake View Mis-
sion, and Lake View Union Schools in
Chicago, and Grace Sunday School, Ell
gin, besides several smaller enterprises.
HIS first publications were prepared
only for his own schools; then, to
cheaper expense, he solicited orders
from others. This was the beginning
of q wonderful growth and popularity,
which, in sixteen years, has made his
name household word.

Poultry and Pork.

The cost of the production of pork
is less than that of the cost of poultry,
but the prices of poultry are higher.
The keeping of flock of hens, how
ever, is not for the production of meat
only, as hen may lay ten dozens OF
eggs before she is sent to market.
THERE'S no conflict between the hog
and the fowl. Both have their uses on
the farm, and, as far as the matter OF
profit is concerned, the hen can com
pare favorably with any of the ami

Coarse Grass and Crop-noupd

This is the season of the year when
some OF the hens may become crop
bound. 1t is due to the lack of green
food, which tempts the hens to swal-

Bill Sent to Him.
WASHINGTON, July 29-Poor old Billy
MoGarrahan's mirage moved away from
him again to-day when the Presidents veto
came into the Senate. The old man had
had an insimation that il was coming, and
he was at the front door OF the Senate
chamber waiting for IL. He did not weep
for sorrow as he had wept for Joy when his
bill was passed. He bore up brsvely and
began TO talk hopefully OF getting his bill
passed over the veto next session. He had
not word to say about the story 30 Rener-
ally credited that the fact that d. o. Mills.
father-in-law of Candidate Whitelaw Reid,
is a large stockholder in the New Idria
Mining Company, now In possession of the
land claimed by McGarrahan, is not entirely
disconnected with the fact that President
Harrison returned his bill with his objeo-
tions to it in writing TO the house in which
it originated. McGarrahan's handsome
offers for his claim were, of course, condi~
tional upon its being signed by the Pres
ident. so that he is tonight poorer than
ever instead of being millionaire.

Mexico the Scene OF Berbarous Exni-

SAN LUIS PorosI, MEXICO, July 29.-A
sickening accident occurred here last night
at bull fight, witnessed by electric light in
a new ring near the city limits. There
we're fully 5000 people present, among
them being a number Of American lady
and gentleman tourists. Metador Albe rto
Limertura was in the act of giving the
third bull fatal thrust with his short
sword when he slipped and fell. The fren-
zied bull had him on his horns in a moment
and was goring him ferociously,
when three OF the bandsrilleros
rushed to the rescue. They Haunted their
scarlet ciosks in front of the bull number
of times without attracting his attention
from the fallen matador. Suddenly he
charged upon one of the banderilleros, who
sought protection behind the barrier erected
for that purpose. The bull overlook him
and caught him npon the sharp point of his
horns, which penetrated entirely through
excitement, the Mexicans cheering the bull
for his grand fighting qualities, and when
the bugle sounded the call for the lassodores
to come in and throw the mad animal to be
killed. the spectators protested vehemently
against such action. The dead body of the
banderillero remained upon the bulls horns
until the animal was killed. Limertura,
the matador, died while being removed from
the ring. The performance was then stopped
by the police.

GEoRGIA's CONSTITUTION

Opinion of the Attorney General on
the Proposed Amendm ents.
ATLANTA, Ga, July 2e.-Some time ago
Gov. Northen asked Attorney General Little
for his opinion on the four amendments to
the constitution which are to be voted on at
the coming state election. One OF these
amendments provides that "the first and
second readings Of each local Dill and bank
and railroad charters IN each house shall
consist Of the reading Of the titls only. unless
said bill ia ordered to be engrossed." The
second amendment prescribes how charters
shall be granted, etc. No question
has been raised about these two
amendments. But the other two amend
ments have been Questioned, inasmuch as
there are no such paragraphs In the consti-
tuition as the act was intended to amend.
One Of these amendments was intended TO
change the sessions OF the general assembly
from biennial TO annual. The other amend
rnent proposes to extend the sessions of the
assembly from forty days TO fifty. Attorney
General Little says that the mistake In the
figures designating the paragraphs is not

tion of the executive committee and things
were going along very smoothly until q
voter offered the following as a substitute:
WHERRAs It is the opinion OF this meeting
that the candidates for political preferment in
Charleston county have been taxed by the
democratic executive committee to ON alarming
and outrageous extent;
WHEREAS Il Is the opinion Of this meeting
that the citizens OF Charleston generally are
better able 70 pay the expenses of the coming
campaign:
Resolved, That each voter in this meeting be
assessed the sum OF $40. that the chair forth
with appoint q committee of ten persons, five of
whom shall be candidates for Office, who shall
forthwith proceed 20 collect the said assess-
ment and four sergents-Rt- arms, who shall close

until the said assessment shall be paid.
Resolved That the amount SO collected be
turned over by the chairman 70 tho democratic
executive committee with instructions TO con-
duct the primary on the basis OF the amount so
collected.
This, OF course, created sensation and
disturbed the harmony of the proceedings.
The original resolutions were, however,
finally adopted. The movement does not
seem to meet the favor either OF the ma
jority Of the candidates or OF the voters.

but their chief business seems to have been
to impress upon President Harrison the
necessity of going a little further in the at

In New York than he had been willing at
first to CO. He was willing enough TO let
them make promises for him TO ex~Senators

he should see Messrs. Platt and Miller per-
sonally and make treaty with them after
the preliminaries had been arranged by hls
representatives. 1t is stated tonight that
Chairman Carter and Gen. Clarkson have
succeeded in persuading him Of the wisdom
and expedienoy of having personal con-
ference with the reluctant ex-senators, and
that he will either see them separately in
New York on his way to Loon Lake next
week or they will be invited down here
separately to see him at the white house.

they will remain over Sunday, returning to
