ARMY NOTES or INTEREST.

One Of the first bills introduced in CONGRESS
that of Senator Davis. a bin that promises to do
just what it was supposed The which made
General Schofeld a lieutenant general was to do
that is, TO make the senior Major-General of the
Army. while comm auding the Army, Lieutenant
General with the rank OF and pay allowed for that
grade before the death Of General Sheridan II
surprise to many officers when they learned
after the bill was passed by the Congress that
II applied to only officer. and that one General
Sch0feld. 1t also surprise to many officers,
and to General Schofeld as well when the law
officers of the Government decided few months
ago that the retired pay OF General Schofed was
less than that heretofore allowed to a Lieutenant
General. The 5ll provides that upon the retire
ment OF the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT his pay shall be
70 per cent Of that Of the fun pay on the active list
1t Is generally conceded that General Miles VIII
continue in command of the Army. but there is
apprehension that the proposed Law will be stouty
opposed by the Southern members OF Congress.
some of whom have already begun to talk of his
harsh treatment of the President of the late Con-
fedcracy' jefferson Davis.

Your home tells the stranger what

does it give you?
-"Well fed is half bred is true
saying. No man ever starved money
out of live stock.

ought not to worry on Sunday. Worry
is the hardest kind of work.

If you make companions of your

comfort for your old age that will re-
turn very large interest on the in

When you sell a cow, sell the poor
est one you have, but don't swear that
she is the best one. 1t is pretty hard
to do this, but it can be done, and you
will not be sorry for it afterwards.
Somebody has said: "You must feed
your farm if you want it to feed you"
and this is true. If you keep taking off
you are breeding poverty for your chill
dren.
Hard times are not made any bet
ter by brooding over them and whining
about them. It is better to smile than
to sigh any time. Half our evils are
imaginary-and most of the other half
preventable.
Most of hired men have souls, but
some employers treat them as if they
had not. Nothing pays better in the
way of returns than to treat the hired
man as if he were a human being. A
word of praise now and then makes
work much easier for the man.
Some men work as if they expected
to sleep forever when they die. These

some time when they find out how
much time it is possible to waste at
work. - The American Farmer and

MUTTON SHEEP.
A Glass of Sheep to Which Farmers Should
Pay More Attention.

A Glass of Sheep to winch Farmers Should
Pay More Attention.
That farmers aG class should use
more mutton can hardly be disputed.
1t is palatable, cheap and nutritious,
and when sheep are kept upon the farm
affords an opportunity of having fresh
meat at a less cost and with a less risk
of loss than almost any other class of
stock. During harvest and at thresh-
ing more or less fresh meat is neces-
sary, and with little planning head
of mutton can be made to supply all
that is needed, but it is not only on
these extra occasions that mutton can
be used to great advantage. On too
many farms too much dependence is
placed upon fat bacon or picked pork
for the meat. During the summer
the constant use of fat pork in this
way is at least detrimental to health
if not positively injurious, and fresh
meat would be healthier as we'll as
more palatable. Many farmers are SO
situated that they can not depend upon
the butcher, while in reality the NUT.
ton is SO much cheaper that the aver.
age farmer can better afford to kill a
good fat mutton than to purchase
fresh meat from the butcher, even
though it be brought to the door rea-
sonably regular. One advantage OF
mutton over other kinds of fresh meat
is that it will keep longer than either
beef or pork.
But to have supply when needed
and to have of a good quality it is
nearly always best to commence in
good season. Mutton to be good, should
be reasonably fat, but with plenty OF
grass and water this would not be diff.
fcult to secure.
There is nearly always wethers or
