BRYAN VIGOROUS.

Bryan should guard his health care
fully, for he is in danger of being sub
jected to terrible strain before the cam
paign is over. It Is probable that when
he goes to New York to receive the COM
mittee appointed to formally notify him
Of his nomination, he will have to meet
the people at railway stations along the
route, just as in Illinois, Missouri, Kansas
and Nebraska since he left Chicago. II
he should keep that up all the way from
Lincoln to New York, 1t would almost
wear him out, and yet the people will
be eager to see and hear him. That sort
of work kept up throughout the cam
paign would be a severe tax upon his
strength. Daily Republican.
The above is no doubt uttered in good
faith, but many will attribute It to Ex-
Senator Hills latest desire to be sarcas-
tic. Nobody need fear for Bryan. He
Is plain, everyday American, who
knows what plain food and simple habits
mean. You can't kill him. He is equal
to any task that can be put upon him.
He is not statesman of the Whitney
Hill-C Cleveland class, made sour and fec
bic by over indulgence in champagne,
quail on toast and pate de fol gras."
His stomach is good, his nerves keen.
his brain clear and his muscles hard.
Don't worry about Bryan overworking
himself. Good work in good cause
never killed anybody yet and never Will.
It is worry and rich living, like the sort
Of life Mckinley lives, that collapses in
campaign. Mr.. Bryan Is iron--he can
stand IL to make two speeches day from
Gpw until November ii required. It Is a
novelty, no doubt, for those who 90 about
with their heads full of aches and pains
and body that responds to the thought,
to zee q man like Bryan at work. People
who coddle themselves and are afraid to
expose themselves usually die young or
live life OF misery, but Bryan isn't that
kind Of timber Denver Road.

Southern Maryland.

The following is from the Va yland
| Farmer:
A recent trip through that portion of
Southern Maryland lying between the
Potomac and Patuxent rivers, says Jos.
B. Thomas in American Sneep Breeder,
impressed me with the idea that no section
of the country is better adapted to the
raising of sheep and lambs for the early
markets. Its nearness to the Eastern
markets, both by rail and water mildness
of its winters, affording pasturage the
the year round; the number and variety
of its feeding crops; the abundance of
pure water and home market for both
lambs and wool render it, in my opinion,
a better sheep producing country than
many parts of the West
l have within the past few years made
it an object to visit some of the best sheep
growing sections, with the view of cross
ing breeds, and find Southern Maryland
well suited for this purpose. | visited
several of the men that handle sheep and
found very fine stock, msotly high grade
Southdowns. They need to improve their
stock with a cross of thoroughbred Shrop-
rams, to procuce better animals of larger
carcasses The soil of this section is a
sandy loan with a clay subsoil. was as
tonished and pleased to find reminder
of my Virginia home in its indigenous
blue grass. The staple crops are corn,
wheat, oats, melons an2 tobacco the last
being cultivated on a large scale and
source of much revenue. As u the peo-
pie themfelves, l can hardly say enough.
In education, refinement and lavish hos

shepherds The local waters abound in
the finest fish, Holsters, oysters and water
fowl, and this whole region is a paradise
for fruit growers and gardeners; and,
what is of primary Importance to new
settlers, lands are surprisingly cheap, con-
sidering their quality and nearness to
Washington, Baltimore and other mar
kets. Jos. B. THOMAS.
