A Rugged Old Patriot.

In 1875 Lord Howe reached America
with authority to make overtures to
the colonies for peace. Shortly after
he landed in New York harbor he heard
the booming Of the cannon which cele-
brated the adoption of the declaration
OF independence, but he persisted in his
mission and was met by committee
from congress consisting of Benjamin
Franklin, John Adams, and Edward
Rutledge A hitherto imprinted ac-
count of this meeting by Henry Stra
chey, Lord Howe's secretary. appears
in the June number Of the Atlantic, and
very interesting reading it makes.
The English commissioner opened
the discussion in skillful and diplo-
matte manner, and what he said must
have been listened to with great re-
spect, for he was a good friend to
America and was strongly opposed to
the hostile policy of the king. But with
all his friendliness and with all his
persuasive eloquence It was impossible
for him to help emphasizing the fact
that he could not debate the question
or independently, and he impressed it
upon the members of the compelled to
treat with them simply as influential
citizens and not in their official capa-
city.
During Lord Howe's speech there
were several courteous Interruptions.
and at the close each of the Americans
made reply in turn. There was no sign
OF weakening on the part of either Of
them, but it is curious to note how
closely the reply of Adams COMFORTS
with the eloquent though imaginary
words that are put into his mouth by
Webster in advocacy of the declaration.
This is the way it Is reported by the
secretary:
Mr.. Adams said that he had no OBJ
lection to Lord Howe's considering
him, on the present Occasion, merely
as private Gentleman. or in any Char
acter except that of a British Subject
that the Resolution of the Congress
to declare the independence was not
taken upon their own Authority-that
they had been instructed to do so by
all the colonies-and that it was not in
their power to treat otherwise than in
dependent States-he mentioned warm
ly his own Determination not to depart
from the idea of INDEPENDENCE, and
spoke in the common way of the Power
OF the Crown. which was comprehended
In the Ideal Power Of Lord and Com
mons.
Sink or swim. live or die, survive OF
perish he had given his heart and his
hand to that measure. and he was JUS,
as plain spoken in the presence of his
lordship as he had been in Independ-
ence hall. II he were living to-day he
might be gold man or he might be a
silver man, but 1t is dead certain that
he would not be straddler.

Continuous Income from Poultry.

F. A. Homann, Of bingham county,
ILL.,, read the following paper before a
farmers institute in that county:
Eggs are all the year round crop,
differing greatly in this respect from
hay. corn and vegetables. which are all
harvest time crops; and if not marketed
at once, expensive buildings have to be
prepared to store them in, and not few
crops such as potatoes, cabbage and
fruit, shrink in value by decaying
while stored. Not so with our poultry
product, which has an all the year
ready market, and with eggs as the
basis of poultry business steady all
the year round income can be COM
manded. 1t is the winter eggs that pay
the greater profit and bring up the
average price for the year. If the
greater part of-the eggs are received for
spring and summer, when prices are
brought down by large supply, the
average will be lower, but II fowls lay

The wool of the English breeds is
thus referred to by the Journal of the
Royal Agricultural Society of England.
Lastly, there is the pure Down, a
wool which is still unequaled for
hosiery purposes, and which will al
ways find market Of it's own, some
times quite independent of the general
course of prices. OF this wool l should
like to say-keep to the old-fashioned
style; keep it as short and as fine as
possible; let no suspicion of long
wool strain get into it; and If am not
mistaken, pure Down wool will take a
respectable place in the future as re-
CARDS comparative prices. With such
ends in view, breeders of Southdowns
may we'll abstain from trying to imi-
tate in length of staple and

Sheep Less Numerous-The east
ern farmers seem to be going out of
the sheep business. They are, as a
rule, very small holders, and when
their small herds seem to be a losing
proposition they do not hesitate long
before letting them go. 1t is the sum
OF these small holdings that make IN
the great aggregate, and when the
farmers begin selling their small flocks
the number of sheep in the country
speedily decreases. There is no branch
of the live stock business that can be
so readily adapted to changed condi-
tions as the sheep business. Since
1898 the number of sheep in the United
States has been constantly decreasing
until now the total number is less than
at any time during the past twenty
years. Meanwhile the range of prices
has been very low. 1t will not be long
before there will be change and sheen
will be in demand again at good prices.
