An individual has a desire to 90

nothing about it. He has money. lots
Of it, more money than he has ex-
perience in the sheep business. He
is not contentod with q few good
sheep, but he must have large flock

vesting by halves. He buys q lot Of
sheep-tive hundred or more-places
them on his farms and begins the
sheep business in earnest. He may
or he may not feed plenty of the
right kind of feed If starvation
does not attack the flock, scab does.
and the flock owner is in deep sea as
to the management of the disorder.
He listens to all who offer advice till
he is driven to sell at any price ha
can get. OF course he will be com-
PEELED to sell at loss. He goes out
of the sheep business in disgust.
There are dark sides to all vocations
In life, and to know how to steer
clear of them is the art to be studied.

Miss Jessie Ackermann's Strange
Experience Before Kings and
Rajahs.
Miss Jessie Ackermann, president of
the Australasian Women's Christian
Temperance union, has arrived at San
Francisco from Sydney. She is of
American. birth and has been abroad
five years. In this time she has trav-
eled 10000 miles and made 1900 ad-
dresses. She has met imumerable
kings, rajahs, viceroys and rulers of
various kinds in the queer countries
beyond the Pacific. One of the most
interesting stories she told the other
day was if her meeting with Ii Hung
Chang, the viceroy Of China.
o. 'The emperor, you know, never re-
ceives any one," said Miss Ackermann
to an Examiner reporter Il had q
long talk with Viceroy Chang. He was
dressed exquisitely in a long tunic of
brocaded satin and his hair was very
long. He spoke English perfectly and
he impressed me as one of the great
est men I had eyer met. Then I met
the king Of Siam. Him I found most
interesting. His English was equally
good. Both were interested in temper
ance, but Ii Hung Chang fatty told me
there was no use coming to China to
teach the Chinese till we had learned
to do as we would be done by. After
1 met these I met and dined with the
sultan of Johore. He is total abstain
er and his glass and mine were the only
ones turned down. His dinner service
was Of solid gold and cost over $780,
600. Through all these countries, and
particularly in Australia, great work
has been done. There are now $4,000
members of the w. G. r. u. in the
colonies, 5000 of whom have been add
ed since visited the country first. Be

A larger amount Of feed Id propor1
tion TO the acreage can be secure inl
this way. While one IS being eaten
down the other will be growing, and
the stock being turned on the fresh
grass will eat down much more even-S
", and before the grass is eaten down
SO close that there is danger Of the ]
grass plants being injured, they can.
be changed to another field
A good time to change stock from
one pasture to another Is just after
q shower, as the falling rain will
have Q tendency to wash off the dust
and dirt on the leaves and stems Of
the grass, and make them cleaner
and more palatable. The objection
to allowing cattle and sheep to pas
ture together is that the sheep eat
the grass 80 close that the cattle cam
not get their share. But this cannot
always be done without considerable
fencing; and this, of course, adds to
the expense of keeping up the farm.
But it is quite an item to make the
most out of the pastures, and at the
same time if the pasture is. good
one it will psy to- manage SO rs to
keep it in as good condition as pos
sible. Where a full number Of stock
is kept to consume the farm prod
ucts to the best advantage. it will
pay to grow some crops that can be
used, if needed, at any time the pas
lures get short BY having the pas
ture divided, and taking pains to
manage carefully, a large amount Of
feed can be readily secured, and at
the same time the stock be kept In
better condition.
