Winter Fattening of Sheep.

With grain and store sheep at pres
ent prices, it may seem doubtful
whether there will be much profit in
feeding sheep or LAMBS the coming
winter. Yet it was the experience of
John Johnson that he was quite as
sure of making profit in such years
as in times when sheep and feed were
cheap and plentiful. In such a year
as the present, however, he always
preferred to feed yearling lambs, buy
ing some Of coarse wool origin if he
could, and both thrifty and hearty
eaters. 1t never pays to fatten poor
sheep. One that shows that it has
never had any setbacks is much to be
preferred. 1t will eat more heartily,
and will often lay on four or five
pounds of flesh q week, while the
older sheep will do we'll if it gains two
pounds q week. There is higher
price for the yearling lamb after it is
fattened, so that this with the gain in
flesh and the increased value of its
wool makes lamb feeding nearly al
ways profitable. An old sheep feeder
who had practiced winter fattening Of
lambs, once told us that he never but
once failed to make a profit money,
and even then he got full pay for all
the feed given at market rates, and
also pile Of very rich manure as the
result of his winters work. Boston

AGRICULTURAL TOPICS.
The Male.

A long, Ieggy fowl is usually Of
coarse bone and contains greater
proportion Of offal than one compactly
built. There are some breeds that are
naturally tall, but there are also indi.
yduals among them more compact
than the others, and they are the ones
that should be selected as breeders,
provided they are good In other
respects. A vigorous, compact male
should always be given the preference.
but he should not be too short-legged
in proportion to- his body. The OBJ.
iect should be To- secure breadth of
backs, deep breasts and heavy bodies
according to size.

laps, by Hale.
Az a reward for their week of pain
and torture in covering hundreds of
miles awheel, Miller will get 81, 500,
aside from presents from wheel and
tire concerns; $1,000 of this is the
winners share Of the purse, and 5000
more goes for breaking the record.
Joe Rice's share of the purse will be
$500 and Schineer will get $500; Teddy
Hale will receive $3.50 and Waller $50
less. Pierce gets 5000, Golden $3.50,
Cannon 1928, Enterman and Rivierre
500 and Fixes S75.
All the riders who covered more
than $50 miles will receive prize,
probably $50 apiece.
The managers of the contest now
admit what has been alleged since the
second day of the race-that the track
was short. Sunday, surveyors went
over the course, and although it was
officially announced that the riders
had not travelled a full mile for every
nine laps, just how short each "mile"
was has not been given out.
When Miller finished winner of the
race 2,093i miles had been checked up
to his credit. From what can be
learned, it is believed the track was
like 200 feet short to the
mile, and, therefore, the actual dis
lance travelled was about 2,014.

New York, March 15.-The Sun says of
cotton THE principal factor in the rise
to-day was the daily river bulletin issued
by the weather bureau. This bulletin
caused the advance here early in the day.
Liverpool rallied after a weaker opening,
receipts at the ports and the interior
towns were generally smaller than a week
ago, the spot markets in this country were
firm, and shorts covered. Liverpool and
New Orleans were moderate traders to-
day, but the speculation was mainly To-
cal. Before the close part of the improve
ment was lost on realizing sales, but the
last prices showed a net advance for the
day. The receipts at the ports for the
week are estimated at 10000 against "A sos
