Everything Was Lovely.


The first girl was telling her friend
all about the funeral. She put her
handkerchief to her eyes. occasionally
as she spoke, and it was plain that she
was deeply affected.
Poor Julia is dead, she said slowly,
land to-day went to her funeral.
Oh, it was the loveliest funeral | ever
saw. There were nineteen lovely
hacks and lovely hearse, all trimmed
with lovely plumes that nodded in
tie sad winds just lovely"
She wiped away falling tear and
went on: Il went in the house with
great many misgivings. | was

was one of the best friends | ever had.
She had such a lovely character.
Well, the house was thronged.
Everything was just lovely. Poor
Julia was laid out in u lovely coffin,
all covered with lovely roses, and
there was besides the loveliest col
lection Of crosses and crowns on the
floor The preacher preached love

lovely temper, and Of the lovely
angels who would lovingly welcome
her through the golden gates. Elk

She dried.
But it was when came 10 look at
the dear face Of the dead girl that
was most overcome. Her hair was
smoothed down in lovely bang, just

complexion was lovely and white, for,
you know, she suffered dreadfully,
and was bleached TO the lOveliest

THE DISEASES OF SHEEP.

1t is apparent, from information re
ceived at the Station, from many
sections of the State, that the dis
eases and parasites of sheep are upon
the increase, and it is very desirable
that ell flock owners should give this
subject their careful attention at this
time of the year. BY 50 doing, many
thousands of dollars will be saved to
the State during the next year, and
the trouble checked which bids fair
to annoy sheep owners for years If
there is not careful attention bestow-
ed upon it.

FOOT-ROT.

II foot-rot be in the flock, the hoofs
should be thoroughly pared and
trimmed close, and the proper rem
edy thoroughly applied for this dis
ease. Most farmers know OF satisfaic
tory remedies for the disease. Nitro
acid, sulphuric acid, burnt alum, but
ter of anthony, powdered blue vitriol,
and other remedies have been success
fully applied. One Of the cheapest
and best is chloride of lime or bleach
ing salt, which should be applied by
sticking the animals foot into the
powder or paste and allowing as
much as will cling to the foot to re-
main between the toes and around
the hOof. Take time now to thor
oughly look after the sheep, and be
sure that all Of them are carefully
inspected.

NOTES FOR FARMERS.
From the West Virginia Agricultural Expert
ment Station.
sHKEP HUSBANDRY.


Sheep shearing time is at hand, and
the attention of farmers Is called to
the desirability of improving their
flocks, especially if they are raising
sheep for wool In order to make
this improvement, it is desirable to
Gull from the flock all sheep falling
below certain grade and weight OF
fleece adopted as a standard by the
farmer Sheep shearing time is the
best season Of the year for determin-
ing which animals should be disposed
of, and which kept for breeding pur-
poses. The flock can also be readily
graded with reference to its physical
condition, and all animals indicating
signs of weakness or of being run
down or diseased should be separated
from the larger flock, and receive
special attention from the farmer I'M
til they can be built up to normal
condition. The farmer, by devoting
special care to his flock at this time,
and marking the animals falling be-
low the standard so that he may
readily separate them later, If he de-
sires, can very soon improve the
quality and quantity Of wool pro
duced upon his farm, especially
should he dispose Of the sheep falling
below the proper standard, and Sc
cure others of proper standard to take
their place.
sHKKP PARASITES AND DISEASES.
Sheep shearing time is the best for
treating the sheep for scab, lice, ticks
and foot-rot Every sheep that is af-
fected with scab, or any Of these pests,
should receive vigorous and thorough
treatment at this time. One Of the
best remedies for scab, lice and ticks
is the infusion OF tobacco leaves made
by sleeping about 90 pounds Of to-
bacco leaves in % gallons Of water,
and making this solution up to 8 bar
rels TO this may be added six pounds
of concentrated I've, and quarts of
pine tar. The I've should be dissolved
in another vessel IL 10 gallons Of boil
ing water. The tar is then added and
the whole brought to boiling. Six
pounds Of unslacked lime may also be
added to this mixture. Stir vigorous
ly and then mix with the tobacco
wash. As soon as the diseased sheep
is sheared it should be plunged into
this liquid, and the liquid rubbed in
thoroughly to the skin of the animal.
This wash should be kept at TEN
perature Of about 100 degrees Fair,
or warm enough to be about comfor-
table to the hands. If the farmer
does not care to dip the animal into
this solution, it can be applied with
sponge by laying it upon board, and
sponging the animal ell over with it.
One thorough treatment Of the sheep
with this wash will generally rid them
at this season Of the year of scab, lice
and ticks.
