ut is possible that a few Of the
finest blades existing in Scotland and
England bearing the name of Andrea
Ferara may be his work; but as yet /
know very few which ! can possibly
attribute to the master or even to the
epoch when he lived, and it is curious
that the Italian collections possess
very few even bearing his name.
What is certain is that for nearly so
years after his death Solingen turned
out hundreds OF blades bearing his
name for expectation to those coun-
tries where a true Ferara was held in
high repute. just as it supplied false
Toledo blades to those where napier
was preferred to broadsword. =

ANDREA FERARA SWORDS.
Very Few Of the Genuine Articles
Are Now in Existence.

If one we're to Judge by the number
OF these blades still extant in a limit
ed area, the great Venetian sword
smith must have done avery large ex-
port business. This thought occurred
to me during the Glasgow exhibition
in 1888, where there were at least 40
swords exhibited, all marked with the
name of "Andrea Ferara." The odd
thing about them was that by far the
greatellp Plumber had belonged to
moorland covenantefs of Ayr or
Lanarkshire and had figured at
the "battle'' Of Drumclog or Both
vel Bridge. Now, q fine sword-blade
was not a thing to be knocked off like
the assay piece OF a Zimmerman, but
was a work OF high art and slow
manufacture, temperlng the steel be-
ing very delicate process.
The price of such an article must
also have been high and far beyond
the means OF d moorland peasant, as
most OF the owners were said to have
been. That such high-class weapons
got into these out-of-the-way places
was difficult to believe Only the
other day came on an explanation
of the problem in a paper, read before
the Royal Archaeological Institute on
Feb. 5. by the Baron de Cossan, f.
S. A. This gentleman has a fine col
lection of ancient armor and weap-
ons, and probably knows more about
those things than any other person in
this country. Here are his remarks on
Ferara blades:
1T is also certain that, common as
blades bearing the signature Andrea
Ferara are in this country, scarcely
any of them are the work of Maestro
Andrea de Ferara, who gained such
renown for the superb temper of the
blades which he produced in his work
shop at Belluni, in Venetia, in the sec
ond half Of the 10th century, where he
worked with his brother, Giomo Do
nato de Ferara, some Of whose
blades signed Zandona, still exist
Nearly all the blades commonly attrib.
uted to Andrea Ferara, are mani

helm states that Andrea was born in
1880, and died about 1888.

farmers should give all such things, a
wide berth. But they should expert

How He Called the Cow.

He lives just outside the corpora

''The COW has not come home yet;

was the answer, and then while his
city friend watched to see him perform
the office OF cowboy he deliberately
got out his lawn mower and began
marching back and forth across the
shaver sod, as though there was no
matter Of cream for the coffee next
morning at stake. "Did you forget

the friend asked presently. 'Forget?
No; isn't she there?" He looked in the

Eggs In Canada.

AS to the Canadian egg trade there
can be no doubt that it has expanded
this season to a greater extent than
even the most sanguinef expected. In
quiries made this week show, however,
that the quality OF consignments has
not been so well maintained during
the past few weeks. There have, OF
course, been notable exceptions, but
the general tendency mas been down
wards rather than upwards in the
quality Of the egg in the packing. The
general opinion Of those in the trade
who have been consulted is that there
is a large and permanent market for
Canadian eggs if only due care is taken
by the shippers. The market is,
however, only a poor one for eggs
OF the half-stale character which have
been coming forward recently. Card
board boxes, moreover, will not do
for the packing; they not only in
crease the breakages but give a musty
smell to the eggs and lessen their mar
ket value. Ii the eggs are taken when
in a, perfectly fresh condition and
packed according to the methods sug-
gested by the Dominion authorities,
and sorted into their different sizes,
there can be no doubt that a fairly
remunerative market will be always
found for them. But it is imperative
that the quality OF the eggs should be
maintained if Canada is to secure a
good reputation on the London mar
ket. In Liverpool, Glasgow, and other
points, an even larger demand exists,
and there, as in London, every thing
depends upon the quality OF the eggs
and the methods of shipment. Cana

So strict was Stonewall jackson in
his religious observances that he never
travelled on Sunday, and never posted
letter or took one from mail on that
day. He believed, indeed, that it was
wrong for the government to carry
mails on the Lords Day. A sketch
OF the confederate leader in his Wild
oW's new memorial OF his life shows
him to have been a tall, erect and
muscular man, with large blue-gray
eyes, a Roman nose and ruddy sun
burnt cheeks. In refuting the charge
that her husband was an awkward
horseman, Mrs. jackson says that it
is sufficient to record the fact that he
was never thrown from his mount,
while his judgement OF horses was ex-
cellent.., In battle he rode with I'M
covered head along his column, ac-
knowledging the shouts Of his devot-
ed men.

Winter Feeding Of Sheep.

"HitSI# TSSOl1S vi oheSps
Sheep do not need to be closely
stabbed in winter. They donot thrive
in confinement: and as they do not
mind the cold, it is safe to keep them
in the open air. But they do suffer
from cold winds and rain, so that
suitable shelter should be provided
for them against winter storms and
blasts. A yard inclosed with a tight
board fence, with shed on the north
side, open to the south and tightly
closed on the other three sides, is rec
commended as the best winter quar-
tiers.
The feed should consist Of grain,
bright straw, clover hay and corn
fodder. Clover is ranked first as afeed
for sheep. A half pint OF grain once
or twice a day, with good straw, is re-.
garded by some flock masters as a
sufficient ration. Barley straw IS
considered the best, with oats, wheat
and rye in the order named.
There should always be supply OF
water within reach. 1t is not good
policy to depend on snow in place OF
water, for, although the sheep will
Stake their thirst with snow, it is bet
ter to give them water directly. Salt
should also be constantly on hand,
where they can get it when they want
it. The American rock salt is by far
the best, and Jumps may be placed in
the yard for their use. This is prefer
able to giving fine salt occasionally,
as, if there is a supply constantly at
hand, they will take it only as they
need 81
