Norway Making Arrangements to Supply
London With Mutton.
London will shortly have the advan-
tage of another meat supply-this time
from Norway-which, according to the
London Telegraph, is perfeoting ar
rangements for supplying the English
metropolis with as much mutton, alive
or dead as it can spare for expectation,
Systematic experiments were made re-.
Gently under the supervision of the
Stavanger Agricultural society, and the
results were SO satisfactory that in the
approaching cold season it is to be re-
peated on larger scale.
It appears that so sheep, each weigh.
ing about 100 pounds, were fattened
for week or so until they turned the
scale at from lis pounds to 1873 pounds.
They were then shipped to London,
where they realized an average price,
after deducting commission, of about
81. so, and as the total outlay had only
been about Sc. so per head there was a
net profit of nearly 81 on each animal.
Forty were also sent over with the
skins, hoofs and interior intact, but on
these three was an average loss of 10
shillings per head, partly explained by
the skins being damaged through bad
packing.
Nevertheless the Stavanger society
has come to the conclusion that the
business promises to be remunerative,
and the English people have thus an
additional guarantee of an adequate
supply of mutton.

animal was great pet in the family,
and on his falling i'll all the experts in
dog maladies were at once summoned.
As he persistently grew worse, he was
taken to an establishment for the care
of dogs, a sort of private hospital, and
orders given that every attention and
effort should be made to save him.
Members of the family called two and
three times day to inquire for Kwik,
as the dog was called; but, despite all
care, Kwik died, and there was nothing
left for the sorrowing family to do but
bury him. An undertaken was summon.
ed and poor Kwik made ready for the
grave. An oak casket, fitted into a sec.
ond one of lead was prepared and a
grave made in the private plot of a
friend Of Kwik's master at Vaucresson.
All official red tape was duly complied
with, and on the day of the interment
the funeral cortege comprised three car

The ceremony ended, the undertaker's

ate that the sum of $40 was added to
