what Our Neighbors Say Concerning Our

what Our Neighbors Say Concerning Our
Protection Policy.
The London Spectator of recent date,
commenting on the political situation
in the United States, says:
The Democratic party has with vir-
tual unanimity not only adopted an anti
protectionist programme, but has chosen
as its candidate politician whose name
IL synonymous with what we mean by
free trade-that is, tariff for revenue
purposes only. The manner in which
the Democratic party has adopted the
principle of free trade is especially re-
markable. Protection-i e., the raising
of duties for other than revenue pur-
poses-has been condemned as uncon-
stitutional, and therefore IL the Demo
cratic party triumphs protection must
20, root and branch, as something OPP
posed to the institutions OF the United
States. The vote by which this de-
cision was carried was q very heavy one.
Five hundred and sixty-four members
voted for ii and only Si3 against.
Nor Is this all Mr. Sherman de-
clares that "the most significant part Of
the vote consists in the fact that the
minority was composed almost entirely
Of men who heartily approved Of the de-
cision, but who feared that the people
at large were not prepared for such a
radical utterance. while the majority
included the entire delegation from New
York, who have hitherto been among
the most obstinate opponents Of any
thing savoring of free trade, and who
strove TO defeat Mr.. Cleveland upon that
ground" Mr.. Sherman Is confident
indeed that the Democratic party as q
whole may now be considered as unan-
imous for free trade and against the
taxation Of the consumer in the interests
of the producer. But II the Democrats
are large majority Of the voters, and
IL the Democrats are determined to put
an end to protection, 1t Is obviously safe
to predict that the days Of protection are
numbered.

Canadian Dairy Advice.

The Ontario Department of Agricult-
ure issued from its experiment dairy,
at Toronto, last June, a bulletin giving
the methods adopted in making butter
The bulletin contains nOLning that
would be new to our readers. We pub
fish the conclusion, which pretty fairly
indicates in a negative way the practice
at the station. 1t says: There are
perhaps fifty ways of making good but
ter, and we do not claim that ours is
the best. There are scarcely two per-
sons that pursue exactly the same
method in all the details.
We do not consider that we know
everything about butter-making, as
something new is being discovered
every month. Not only from our own
work are we learning, but also from the
research and observation of others. We
do not keep a cow that makes less than
200 pounds of butter in a year; nor put
the dry COW on a starvation ration; nor
expect COW to make something out Of
nothing; nor keep our COWS in an ice
house, hOgpen or dungeon; nor allow
them to go a whole year without card
ing or brushing them; nor depend on
pasture alone for a supply of summer
feed. We do not allow the milk to
stand very long in the stable to absorb
foul odOrs; we do not neglect to strain
the milk at once after milking; nor set
the milk in deep cans in well water
without changing the water at
least twice, or without ice; MOI
mix sweet cream with cream
to be churned less than twelve
hours before churning (the cream is
cream for a whole churning); nor add
sca1ding water to the cream; nor guess
at the temperature with the finger; nor
take two or three hours to churn; nor
gather the butter until the ''dasher
stands on top" and the7 dip it out Of
the buttermilk; nor add coarse salt by
guess; nor work the butter III . grease;
and finally, we do not send our butter
to market wrapped in old rags that
may have seen other service in the
home.-Mirror and Farmer.

better, as they have darker noses and
legs, point buyers for market always
consider favorably. Their grade eve
lambs make the best mothers, being
large and good mixers. and besides
yield annually TWO to four pounds more
OF wool than Hampshire or Shropshire
ewes. A good fleece is worth having
1t goes long ways towards paying for
the ewes keeping. The advantages of
starting with AIerino ewes are these:
They can be bought at little more than
one-half the cost of Hampshire grades,
are hardy, reliable as breeders, can be
depended upon to produce uniform re-
suits because of their lineal descent,
and give quality to the fibre OF their
own and offsprings' wool which the in
fusion of any other blood seems TO fail
to do. The grade ewes may be bred 20
either wool or mutton SireS and the
desires of the breeder be quickly full
filled in their progeny. The use of Il
Merino male will somewhat reduce the
size of the succeeding generauOn of
lambs, but the clip of wool will be per-
Down sire would stamp the offspring
still more fully with his characteristics
of course, with f1eeceS lighter instead OF
heavier than those Of their dam, the
Hamp-Merino grade
Nothing will make the sheep thin so
fast as ticks, and no thrifty shepherd
will feed this yernlin. Before going in
to winter quarters, fiocks that are in
tested should be dipped, especially ewes
that are to fatten dollhouse" lambs.
Choose a warm, sunny day and fix the
dip south of some building or other
sheltered from wind. Especial care must
be taken with lambs that are not weau-
ed. They must be kept from ewes for
an hour or two after dipping. 1T is a
good plan to separate the ewes and
lambs, dip ewes first and wait two
hours before beginning with the lambs.
The dams teats will then be dry, and
the little shiverers can so to work for
their dinner safely.
The demand for spring lamb is be-
ginning earlier and earlier. A Christ
mas lamb will bring double the price
of one of equal weight in April
Lamb all the year round and plenty of
it," as the market is yociferously calling
for should make sheep men smile The
increased taste for mutton and lamb
as well as a ivelier sale for wool, makes
the present sheep interest a more per-
manent and reliable one than any pre-
viOus sheep boom" since the forties
The breeder who goes into sheep and
learns how to make them pay their
best cannot go far wrong, whatever i'm
proved system he follows. No matter
which breed is selected let it have the
best care and try to learn it's best points
and closest peculiarities. Sheep are
like fowls in paying heavily for care in
all the minor details of their needs

A Costly Mistake.

In a recent issue of our esteemed &C.
temporary, Hoard's Dai1yL-An, a prom
inent New York State cOW-keeper has
the following to say:
Il came into possession of the old
homestead in 1868.
Il began by buying calves from good
diaries, one Of them among the first in
the country, of which | knew, that sue
ceeded in making 300 pounds of butter
per COW. This dairy was owned by Mr.,
Francis Elliott, of the town of Delhi
And here let me say, the first time
heard the statement made of his having
procured such an amount, it came from
the dealer who bought his butter, say
ing he had bought from Mr.. Elliott 300
pounds per COW. | remember distinctly
of repeating the statement, but nine
out of ten did not believe Il word of
it.
1T was a wise move getting these
calves, for many of them proved good
COWS. But right here comes in one of
the great failures. About this time
thoroughbred Jerseys were being intro
duced into the town of BOvina, and
among others there were some bulls that
in after years proved most valuable as
stock getters. AS the Jersey was COM
paratively new in this section, bull
calves were held at 800, or more. A
500 bill was not picked from every
bush, as we say, in these days, and it
looked like a great deal Of money for a
bull calf I think / was the first one in
our neighborhood to own a thorough
bred Jersey bull, but / made the great
mistake of allowing many years to pass
using scrub bulls. I think 1 have pre-
viouSly made the statement that had I
at this time done as Mr.. A. Dever-
eauX did-purchased the best Jersey
bull | could find, even though he had
cost me $500, it would be $4,000 in my
pocket to-day. Now, l am well aware
this seems like an astonishing state
ment but let us do little figuring and
see if it is really so. We began by
keeping fifteen cows-as many as the
place would provide feed for. We now
have over fifty head. We will call it
fOrty-fve COWS at present, and we will
call the average for the twenty-four
years since 1868 twenty-five COWS.
Under the old system of milking
about eight months in the year, and
keeping cows in a cold barn, and feed
ing more or less at hay barns which we
were obliged to do for eight years be-
fore we could build a new barn, the
yearly output of butter did not exceed
80 pounds per COW Suppose the av-
erage from these TWEEN -y-four years has
been 200 pounds per COW. l have not
the fiugres at hand, but doubt not this
is a fair estimate.
IF I had paid $500 for a thorough
bred bull, and had been reasonably
careful in selecting, I am sure 275
pounds per COW for the twenty-five

is AN UNPOPULAR MEASURE.
Scotch Liberals Indignant Over the Ae-
tion Taken About Canadian Cattle

Scotch Liberals Indignant Over the Ao-
ton Taken About Canadian Cattle
LONDON, Nov. 5.-Mr Herbert Gard
ner, President of the Board of Agri-
culture, may expect Storm of pro-
tests from Scotch Liberals against his
hasty action in prohibiting the free
importation of Canadian cattle and
ordering that they be slaughtered at
the port at which they are landed.
This action will impose a heavy bur
den on Taxpayers, as the cost of
Strengthening will have to be borne by
them, as will also be the expense of
compensating the owners of the cattle.
The opinion of DIR. Williams, who Ia
regarded as the first authority on cat
tie diseases in the kingdom, comedies
with that of the best American and
French authorities that the corn-stalk
disease is not contagious. He has ad-
mitted that many of the animals
slaughtered were suffering with lung
defects but contended that these were
merely due to tie strain of a ing voS
age and exposure.
The Board of Agriculture is blamed
for emitting the decisive proof of moe
culating sound cattle with lymph from
the animals alleged to be suffering
from pleuro-pneumonia.
The deputation headed by the Duke
of Westminster which waited upon Mr.
Gardner yesterday and urged him to
forbid the free importation of Canadian
store cattle are credited with having a
motive for their course. 1t is said that
the societies represented by the depu-
tation feared that the importation of
Canadian stock would have an imDor-
tant effect upon the trade in home
pedigree stock. The incident will
quicken the demand for Scotch home
rule, which would give Scotland her
own Board of Agriculture.
Adaptation from the Scottish Home
Rule association waited upon Sir o.
Trevelyan, secretary of Scotland, and
claimed that the question of Scottish
home rule should have attention SIM
ultaneously with or directly after Irish
home rule.
Sir George declined to make any def
mite promise regarding the course of
the government, though he showed
that he was in sympathy with the OBJ
ject of the deputation.

st. Louis Globe Democrat: Speak
ing of presentiments reminds me of
an experience / had at Gettysburg"
said Capt. Henry Pfeifer to a circle of
time killers in the rOtunda of the South
ern yesterday. II had a presentiment
that / was going to lose my left arm
in that Scrap and it went. I saw the
whole thing before it happened-felt
the pain before 1 was touched. I was
certain that when my regiment adj
vanced to certain spot my arm would
be torn away by a shell, that I would
fall at the foot of a little scrub oak,
and that two certain members Of my
company would carry me to the rear.
As we advanced / saw the scrub oak,
and said to the man ON the right: I
will be hit when we reach that tree.
I will lose my arm. This is my last
battle We had passed the tree per-
haps three feet when a shell struck
me, tore away my arm and I stagger-
ed back and fell just where I expected
to. The two men sprang to me and
carried ne back a few rods, then re-
joined the company. I don't pretend
to explain it, but I knew just as well
an hour before the shell came hurting
through the air that my left arm was
doomed as I know it now"
