also unrepresented. OF Victoria Cross
men. only two have turned up. one OF
them is an old fisherman at Penzance,
and he is coming all the way to London to
attend his last parade. In addition TO
the Victoria Cross, the brave old Cornish
man also has the medal for. conspicuous
gallantry. the Crimean medal with three
bars: the Turkish medal, and the cross
of the Legion OF Honor. The old man has
no pension except the flo year which
accompanies the bronze cross. and he Is
obliged to win his bread from the seas
round the stormy Cornish coast. The
tion in the services is an old Jack Tar,
who. oddly enough, has not had any war
service. He won 1t away in the South
Seas one day, when boats crew OF hDer-
ashore on an island inhabited by cannibal
SavageS. The sailors were attacked by
the natives, and this man displayed such
conspicuous heroism in the ensuing strug-
gle that he was recommended for and re-
ceived the Victoria Cross.
1t Is q sad commentary on the way In
which old soldiers and sailors are looked
after to have to state that many Of the
applications which reach Colonel Gildea
are indicted from warehouses or other
homes Of poverty and heplessDess. One
of these veterans has had no less than
thirty-five years service in the regulars,
militia. and volunteers, and yet is not
entitled to pension. and, of course, re-
ceives none. In all about 300 old soldiers,
together with the Chelsea pensioners, will
be inspected by the Prince of Wales 1t
is hoped that there also will be on the
ground representatives of the various
Colonial troops that have come over for
the jubilee.
Fifty girls, from the Soldiers Daugh-
ters' Home. at Hampstead; a similar
number from the Guards Industrial
School, and fifty boys from the Duke of
York's School. will form a choir on the
occasion, and there WILL of course, be
plenty Of military music. After the in
spection the Princess of Wales will re-
ceive purses containing donations in aid
OF the Nurses homes and then the vete-
rams and the Chelsea pensioners will sit
down to an evening meal in the great
hall of the hospital.
1t Is proposed TO give each veteran a
Jubilee pipe and present of tobacco.
The pipes are being made TO a special de-
sign. and viii form a handsome and in
teresting souvenir for the old men.
Many of the men who will be present
on this occasion, or, at least a very good
percentage of them, distinctly remember
the day when the Queen was crowned,
and they have grown old with her. Ii
is most touching commentary upon the
position held by the Queen that even the
most poverty-stricken of these old vete-
rams, even those 10 whom after years Of

The Decline of TrOut-Fishing in
Scotland.

(BlackwOod)
All classes of Scotsmen, from the peer
to the peasant, from Shetland to Solway,
are devoted disciples of IZaak Walton,
whether their object is the capture of
the lordly salmon in the pool or the
Turing of the more humble trout from
tho tiny streamlet. But the law does not
lend the same protection In the one case
as in the other. The salmon is protected
by innumerable acts OF Parliament,
Scots and British; for. upwards of five
centuries he has been the peculiar favor
iie OF the law. The trout in Scotland
however. has been practically left to
work out his own salvation for himself,
and the result has been gradual deterio-
ration. both in numbers and in size. 1t
Is matter OF common knowledge that
trout-fishing In Scotland has gone down
greatly OF late years, though II must be
admitted that Ii Is not easy to prove the
fact. owing TO the scarcity of genuine
records. OF takes. The reasons given for
this falling of are. various. One of the
commonest is that OF the pollution OF the
rivers. owing to sewerage and manufac-
tories. Certainly great deal Of harm
has been done in this way 10 the trout;
but 1t is doubtful II the damage has been
as much as might have been expected.
1t is very seldom that one sees a dead
trout In the river. That would be chiefly
in the summer time, when one soud
hardly help seeing. them If they were
poisoned. The fact Is that pollution does
not so much kill the fish as drive them
down TO the bottom, where. as a rule,
they won't take. The amount Of water,
too. is much less In many Of the streams.
owing TO the water having been taken
from them for the purpose OF the water
supply OF the larger cities. That is very
much the case IN Midlothian and Pee
blesshire: and the new ITALIA scheme for
may damage the tributaries
OF the Tweed. Another cause for the
gradual deterioration In the number OF
the trout caught by individual anglers
Is TO be found IN the everlasting that
The South of Scotland. That is due great
" to the increase In late years In rail-
way facilities. But the chief reason is

The hand binding harvester with men to
do the binding is out of date. and SO is the

highly probable that there will be no pro.
gressive manufactures building left hand

The application of roller bearings to grain
cutting machinery was made by j. G.. Perry
in 1869, and his patent, No. sc, 5S4, for an
improved reaper, showed and described
various ways of using roller and ball bear
ings in harvesters. In view of these facts
it is somewhat amusing to read the claims
of a certain reaper maker of the present
day, who says he was the first to introduce
roller bearings IN harvesting machinery. As
a matter of fact this manufacturer is COM
paratively a beginner in the art Of reaper
building and has originated nothing.
Unquestionably the most practical and sat

binders and mowers has been made by the

MARKETING SHEEP.
Right After shenrfng II u Good Time
to sell Them.

VI SCH hnems
When the sheep are sheared il il =
good time to select out those TO be mar.
lleted. Under present conditions it is
hardly advisable to keep sheep that do
not produce good ileeccs of wool. Inc
quality must be such as to bring good
prices, and the quantity must be suf-
ficicnt.
farm, nearly or quite all OF them should
be good breeding ewes and bring a good
lamb every spring in addition to grow
ing a good fleece of wool.
Many farmers make a serious mistake
in failing to feed their stock until they
are in "A good marketable condition. In
many cases sheep well fattened for mar
ket will bring twice as much as those
sold in a poor condition. Not only is
more realized on account of the increas
in weight. but a better price can al
ways be had per pound for good fat
sheep than for poor ones. With prop
er management sheep can be fattened
easily and rapidly. but they are easily
cloyed by overlooking and require more
care in this respect than almost any
other kind of stock. Commence feed
ing a small quantity Of grain and grad
ually increase until they are given all
that they can eat up clean. l, is not
best to depend upon corn alone. While
il is one of the best fattening foods, yet
if given to sheep daily as their princi-
pal ration they soon tire of II and will
not thrive as they should.
Any animal. when fed heavily, should
have a good variety, and this is es-
pecially true of the sheep. II kept in
good thrifty condition six weeks feed
ing of all that they will eat of a good
fattening ration will fatten them for
market. But with sheep that have been
poorly wintered longer feeding will be
necessary. While corn can be made the
principal ration, bran, shipstuff, oats,
barley and oil meal should be given to
make up q good variety. and in this
way keep the sheep in good appetite.
See hat they have all that they will
eat up clean and at the same time are
not overfed.
With old sheep the hest plan of fat
tening is on good farm pasturage,
changing from one place to another
every two or three weeks. 1t is difficult
to fatten old sheep IN dry feed of any
kind. Fairly good success may be
realized by feeding ground grain. but
the more economical plan is to depend
upon good pasturage. selling whenever
q good marketable condition is reached.
1t is usually good economy to fatten
and market the old sheep during the
spring and early summer rather than "a
keep them over.
Always select a sufficient number OF
young, vigorous ewes to take the places
Of the old ones sold off.-St. Louis Re-
public.
