Mining Operations in the Town of Perry

Mining Operations in the Town of Perry.
A diamond drill in charge of an ex-
pert and under the direction of Mr.. w.
f. Trask of this city, was to go into
operation yesterday in the town of Per-
ry, near Eastport through the deposit of
freestone. This reef of stone is nine
miles in length and five in breadth, and
is Of superior quality for building pur-
poses. Other geological deposits are
found there, that lead to the belief
that there is bed of coal beneath. AS
long ago as 1859 a Scotch coal mining
expert sunk large shaft 800 feet in
search of coal, he being confident that it
would be found at a depth of about 500
feet. The company then gave up the effort
and the expert from his own private re-
sources put the shaft down 100 feet
farther, when he was taken sick and
died. The diamond drill will settle the
coal question and the supply of free
stone is comparatively inexhaustable.
The present company has bonded for
mining purposes wide extent of terrific
~ in that region. Their present opera
lions are on a tract lying between the St.
Croix and Little rivers.

SELECTING SEEDS.

for That Purpose.

Pick Out the Best Plants and Preserve
for That Purpose.
Owing to the facility with which
farmers can supply themselves from the
seedsmen, few save their own seeds
now as they did in former times 1t is
so convenient to look over the assert
ments to be found in the seed stores
and select what one wants for the gar
den for small consideration that saw
ing seeds at the right time is scarcely
thought of by most families having
gardens Still there are in many cases
manifest advantages in saving at least
a portion of the seeds which may be
wanted the next season, says the South
ern Farmer In this way one can feel GER
tain of having for his various crops
seeds which will grow and be true to
name if proper care is taken in gather
ing, curing and preserving them from
injury until wanted for use. Do not
take seeds from the plant until perfect
ly mature. Select from the best stalks
and spread for a few days in dry
room, and when they have been care
fully cleaned put in small bags, label
and hang out of harms way until
planting time. 1t is a good plan to

OPIUM CULTIVATION IN INDIA.

License Must be Secured from the Govern
mcnt-Fields Like Sheets of Silver.
AS the cultivation of tobacco is pro-
hibited in England, except under spe-
cial license from the excise authorities,
so the cultivation of the poppy in Brit
ish India is forbidden unless license
has been taken out. When cultivator
takes out permit from the opium de-
partment to cultivate a certain area
usually two-thirds of an acre of his
own land he receives an advance in
money to secure his allegiance, and he
binds himself to deliver to the opium
agent, at a fixed price, ordinarily five
shillings lone dollar and twenty-five
cents a pound, whatever opium may
be produced upon his land. When off,
cial supervision is efficient it is very
difficult for man to cultivate poppy
on larger area than is covered by his
license without detection. The culti-
walton cannot be concealed. 1t is sort
of garden cultivation, the poppy plants
being grown in little squares or beds,
intersected by tiny water channels for
irrigation whenever this is possible
The growth of the plants is carefully
tended, and at length the time comes
when they burst out into flower and
the fields look like a sheet of silver as
the white petals of the flowers glisten
in the morning dew. These beautiful
petals are the first producs of the crop;
for the women and children of the Gull
tivators' families come forth and pick
them off one by one and carefully dry
them, SO that they may serve afterward
as the covering of the manufactured
cakes of opium. Then the peoples, with
their bare capsule heads, remain stand
ing in the open fed until it is consid-
cred that they are ripe for lancing.
The cultivators then come forth in the
evening and. with an implement not
unlike the knives of a cupping instru
ment, they clarity the capsule on its
sides with deep incisions, SO that the
juice may exude. In the early morning
the cultivators reappear with a scraping
knife and their eHthenware pots, and
they scrape off the cxuded juice ard
collect it in their pots. And this is
crude opium. Weekly.

FOR SHEEP RAISERS.
How Long Can Ewes and Lambs BE Kept
to Advantage?

10 huNauSAScs
As with all other stock much depends
ipon the growth made, the kind of
iheep and the conditions under which
hey are kept. Generally the safest
,ule to follow is to market when the
sheep have reached their full CONNER
,ial value. That is, whenever a sheep
will sell at the highest price then is
when it should be sold. But with this,
as with all rules regarding the manage
ment of stock on the farm, there must
be exceptions, and with sheep a good
breeding animal can often be kept I'M
til they are ten or twelve years old. II
kept to maturity they can, in very
many cases, be kept until they are five
years old, especially the ewes, if they
are good breeders. Wethers, unless
they are exceptionally good ones, can
generally be marketed when they are
three.
With sheep that are raised more es-
pecially for market it is often the case
that they can be marketed TO better
advantage as lambs than as matured
sheep, and especially so when they can
be made ready for market reasonably
early. When only certain number of
sheep can be kept on the farm with
profit, and the surplus is to be market
ed, the market value should determine
when it is best to sell. Whenever the
most clean profit can be realized is the
time to let CO. With sheep raising as
with nearly or quite all other farm
products, every advantage must be
taken to secure the best profit
and the time and manner OF
marketing are often important features
in this. Growing well is important,
but selling well is equally SO. II a
lamb will sell to the best advantage
time to sell IL If it can be kept until
it is three months old and return a
larger profit than ut three weeks IL will
be better TO keep it, of course Other
things being equal. Again 1t may be
more profitable to clip two fieeces OF
wool and then market as mutton, OF
course having fat and in good condi
ton. BY this time sheep should b.
well matured, and, If fat will be at its
best and should sell at the highest
price for matured mutton.
1t is only where a eve is an excep
tional breeder that it will pay to keer
her longer than five years. Under what
may be considered average condition:
after eve is five years old she begins
to lose vigor and the safest plan is to
sell at that age. 1t is of no advantage
to sell off good ewes unless there ar,
younger sheep to take their place
Ewes can always be kept longer will
profit than wethers, and often lambs
can be sold to better profit than ma
tured sheep. So that no infallible rule
can be laid down as to when it will b,
best to sell.-N. ]. Shepherd, in Woo
