capacity of master of his own house,
bearing in his train Lord Teviot and
my lords valet, dark, fateful person
age, who might have been twin-brother
of the Sphinx. Teviot, on his best be-
havior, appeared TO unexpectedly adj
vantage in the eyes Of both host and
hostess. He was natural, good-hu-
mored. and decidedly pleasant COM
pany; bore himself without ostenta-
tion, and seemed always anxious to be
rid of the state attending upon the
handle TO his name. On the whole, Mr..
Wing felt that if there were a choice
between the various youngsters who
smoked his cigars. ate his entrees, and
drank his wines, this Englishman was
remuneratiye beyond the average.
But even such consolation for the
labor of enforced appearance as the
head of his own large, expensive, and
troublesome establishment, and for
conjugal attentions expended during
the period Of three unbroken days, did
not suffice for the restless Mr.. Wing.
On the morning of the fourth day of
Lord Tevlot's visit, he explained to his
noble guest that he had been called
back to town on business. but hoped
Teviot wouldn't, on that account, hurry
himself about leaving.
On this point Teviot, who in the course

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

The Dorset or the Shropshire are ex-
cellent for early lambs. Lambs that can
be marketed by the middle of February
are the stock that brings in big money.
A writer says that it is the food and
not the breed that gives quality to the
lamb. Oh, come off, brother. All the
feed in creation cannot make Merino
lamb equal to lamb of the mutton
breeds. 1t requires both breed and
feed to do the businesss-Far
Voice.
We think the best way to feed is ia
cut it up, corn and stalks together, and
feed in the Manager in the stable. a
great deal of good fodder is wasted by
feeding out of doors scattered in a yard
and allowing the stock to tramp ON it.
Thu silo is another good way to save the
corn and it makes fine feed.
A wise choice of methods of pre-
paring and feeding the food has much
to do in determining profit or loss. The
cheapest production of flesh by horse,
COW or sheep, or of milk, is where all or
the larger part of the food is secured by
the animal grazing in good pasture.
Simple methods of preparation are best

for each feeding beast, gradually in
creasing the allowance till, when ft.,ish-
