TARIFF BILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Formal Work on the New Measure
Bcgins This Week.

WASHINGTON, Dec 27.-Formal work
on the new tariff bill will be begun by the
ways and means committee Monday, when
the first of the series of hearings, which are
to extend over twelve days, will be held.
Judged by the amount of correspondence
which has come to the committee on the sub
ject, there Is a more widespread interest
in the forthcoming bill than has attached
to any other revision of the tariff, and the
number of business men who desire to ap-
pear before the committee Is unusually
great. The program arranged by Chairman
DinglCy and his colleagues cOntcmplateS ses-
sions from 10 to o'clock. To hear all the
interests which will be on the ground, with
one or two schedules of the bill to be COW
cred each day, the representatives of every
interest will be obliged to condense their
statements. No allotment of time has been
made In advance to any applicants but on
each day the committee will arrange a pro-
gram, based on the number who appear to
speak. Instead of listening to each member
of the various delegations, the committee
will avoid repetitions by asking every dele
CATION to select spokesman to present its
views.
Several labor organizations have signihed
their intention of making arguments before
for the Industries in which they are workers.
In addition, there will be reports OF various
commercial bodies. as well as the usual
delegations Of manufacturers, producers OF
raw materials and importers,
The statements made orally to the COM
mittee and the more valuable of the written
statements submitted will be printed. After
the hearings TO outsiders. IL is probable that
government officials. particularly the APP
pralsers, viii be called upon for assistance
and expert testimony from other quarters
may be asked.

How to Sugar Cure Meat.

For $50 pounds of beef or pork take
six gallons of water, nine pounds of
brown sugar. three ounces of saltpeter
with one ounce of soda, and after mix
ing all together heat up to the boiling
point, skimming off any impurities
that may arise. After the brine has
cooled pour it over the meat. l have
tried the recipe myself many times and
the meat always comes out in perfect
condition, and does not need freshnning
to be cooked. Several years ago
bought a 20 gallon stone jar to pack
meat in, and found it much more to
my liking than a barrel. 1t cost me
50 90, which, of course is more than a
barrel would cost, but as it never leaks
nor becomes impure, and with care will
last for generations, it is cheaper than
a ba rrel. Rural World.

Why Horses are Cheap.

The great amount of harm that the
bicycle, electric trolley, ETC., have done
the horse and his breeder exists chiefly
in the brain of the penny a liner; the
actual fact of the matter is that the
horse, being an article of commerce,
can not rise very greatly in value until
the general situation is ameliorated. In
fine, the hard times are solely respon'
sible for the state of the market, and
will hold it down as long as they con.
tinue, but when the turn is made in
earnest, prices will advance in proper
tion to the improvement made in other
lines of bushes Rural World.

SHEEP on THE 4 R
No Stock So Wen Adapted to HilIsides and
Rough Pastures.

No Stock So Well Adapted to Hillsides and
Rough Pastures.
1t does not require a large farm to
keep a small flock Of sheep. which
everything considered is the best, says
the Missouri Farmer. 1t should be
well fenced so that they a be kept
where wanted. Many a rough, worn
out farm might be brought up and
made valuable by raising sheep. There
is no stock so we'll adapted to rugged
hilisides or rough pastures. or to pre-.
vent the growth Of weeds and bulbs.
Where sheep havo the. range of a field
very few weeds will go to seed, and
bushes will be SO thoroughly cropped
that they will either die or be kept
back. When a farmer a thus easily
turn the weeds and bushes of a farm
into excellent manure, and at the anne
time have them converted into mutton
and wool, it Is certainly. good thing.
Sheep will thrive in a pasture and get
fat where cattle would almost starve.
They also scatter their droppings over
the field and never fail to enrich lands,
where kept. Feed them extra, for this
additional food works to the profit of
the raiser in two ways-it not only In
sures a good growth Of flesh and wool,
but it makes the manure richer and
more valuable.
To make the most profit out of sheep
they should be well fed and cared for.
A sheep must be fed to make the best
mutton, but few conceive that we'll
fed sheep produces more wool than one
poorly cared for. Wool is product
from feeding, the same as fat, and
many farmers lose half the profit from
neglect to feed properly. Sheep should
have, besides good feed, dry, clean
quarters, sheltered from rain and
storms.

Catarrh Means Danger,

Because if unchecked may lead directly
to consumption. Catarrh is caused by
impure blood. This fact is fully estab-
lished. Therefore, it is useless to try
TO cure catarrh by outward applications
or inhalants. The true way to cure
catarrh is TO purify the blood. Hood's
Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier,
cures catarrh by its power to drive out
all impurities from the blood. Thou.
sands of people testify that they have
been perfectly and permanently cured
of catarrh by Hoods Sarsaparilla.
