in their weekly letter of August o6th,
very heavy'receipts of cattle for the past

urged not to put any but ripe cattle on
the market These bring good prices,
while all others go ruinously low.
Sheep. too, have dropped under the
influence Of heavy receipts. the falling
of of price during the week amounting
to l0c. or l5c. per 100 lbs. on western
sheep. Shippers are advised to hold
their stock unless absolutely compelled

Of scoring chute. Every horsemuu
will at once perceive the immense ad-
vantage of this addition. Nine-tenths
of the accidental collisions on the old
fashioned elliptical tracks occur while
rounding the first turn. The reason is
obvious. The word is given with per-
haps ten horses lined up across the
track. Before they get fairly settled in
their stride they are obliged to swing
TO the left, like q platoon of soldiers.
1t is here that the utmost skill of the
most experienced drivers is frequently
insufficient to keep the horses from
breaking and swcrving, and collision is
inevitable. With the track illustrated
the horses have nearly full quarter
mile after receiving the word before
they are asked to negotiate the first
turn. BY the time it is reached the
field Is more or less strung out and but
two or four are asked to make the turn
together, II that many. The turn is
short. and before the horse makes up
his mind to break he is around IL and
sailing down u straight stretch with
victory ahead, if he trots fast enough
The scoring chute can be made any
desired length. The horses are in the
care of the starter until the word go"
is given. From that instant they are
in the hands of the judges until the
finishing wire is reached and the
drivers have dismounted. Every foot
OF the track can be seen by the judges
and the spectators in the grand stand.
The timers are in line with both the
starter and the judges, also with the
quarter, half-mile and three. quarter
poles No iiag is required at the three
quarter pole to enable them to catch
the time. If the Terre Haute track is,
on account of its shape, the fastest in
the country, what will it be with tine
addition of the str aight scoring chute?
The comparison has been made with
the clliptical track for the reason that
the kite track is already back num-
Der. That it is n good track for horses
to trot over is beyond a question, but
they are so far away from the grand
stand SO large part of the journey
that people cannot see satisfactorily.
The idea of adding the straight scor-
ing chute is the product of the brain OF
w. C. Crevcling, of st. Louis, we'll
known throughout the west as "Clem'
Crevcling, one of the best trotting
horse starters in the country. 1t was
while starting the horses at the late
Ierre Ilautc meeting that he conceived
the idea of the chute" and all the
horsemen, as far ps heard from, enter
tain very high opinion of its useful
ness. ST, Louis Republic

Fattening sheep for Market.

We venture the assertion that 1t will
be pretty safe for those in position to
fatten sheep for spring market to do so,
and to prepare for early spring lambs.
There is always u good profit in doing
this, but it seems as though there are
circumstances which would warrant
small feeders in adopting this system
more generally the coming winter.
The present condition of finances will
lcter many wholesale feeders from
feeding very extensively next winter.
Feeders are and no doubt will be cheap
enough, but many won't care to risk
any large investments in this line
while others will lack the capital. IL
looks, then, as though there would be
sufficient Indications to justify our
hocl;aastcrs in cnlarging this scale Of
business. Tho markets will need the
usual supply of good lamb and mutton,
and prices will certainly be good
enough to well remuncratc our flock.

assure you we shall be glad when it is
all over and we are again settled down
in Chinantoo. We hope to get there
day after o-morrow, if all goes well,
but both yesterday and today we
have made such poor time we may
possibly be delayed an extra day. We
left Shangha two weeks ago to day,
after spending three days there, one
of which was Sunday, attending to va
rlous matters, and reached Cheefoo in
about forty-eight hours. Here we
were delayed five days, waiting for a
small coast steamer, which runs only
once a week. AT last we got off, after
we had grown very tired OF waiting,
and in about two days reached the
end of our sea voyaging, which had
begun just a month before at Van
