Leaps Of "A Mountain Sheep.

No; the mountain sheep does not leap
from great heights, and land either up
on his horns or his feet. He knows the
strength of his material too we'll to try
it. His horns and skull might success
fully Withstand the shock, but the
weight Of his body would break his
spinal column in two or three places,
to say the least of 1t. 1t is true that
when hard pressed a herd will some
times plunge down a terribly steep in
cline, sliding and bounding from point
to hoint, until they plough into the
"slide-rock" below; but as to leaping
over a sheer precipice, I saw any
one who even claimed to nave ever wit
messed such a thing, says an authority.
The old rams often fight by butting each
other terrifically, and often splinter,
or sometimes break off the ends of their
horns in hat way.

Ashes for Gooseberries.-In the April
number of the Fruit Grower Mrs. Ora
ham, Of Indiana, writes that she has
the best success with gooseberries that
are not cultivated. My experience is
much the same. l use hard and soft
coal ashes and cinders as a mulch, and
find that the bushes I treat in this way
are In every respect superior to those
not treated with the cinders. I shall
treat all my bushes, both currant and
gooseberry, in this manner as fast a
I can get the cinders.-W. B. Hall IL
Green's Fruit-Grower.
