Style on German Railroads,

The railroad stations all over this
country are models of convenience and
pretension. The meanest local train on
German railway receives a degree of
consideration and honor that would
stagger the engineers of the Chicago
limited. The railroads are run entirely
by the Government, and everything
connected with them shows the impress
of military rule The stations there
are surrounded by small parks, in which
there are fountains, flowers, and artis-
tically arranged hedges. The station
building is often the most pretentious
one in the town. and there is usually
attached to it large restaurant with
several walters in the conventional claw
hammer coats. Broad walks made of
granite and marble. and relieved from
monotony by designs in mosaic stretch
along ON either side and there is an air
of spick and span brightness about
everything in sight. As the train draws
into the station the walters stand in an
orderly row at the entrance to the din
ing room. They have all been soldiers
every man in Germany has served .
number of years in the army, and they
stand in military attitude. with their
hands at their sides aud their chins mp.
Directly in front of the main entrance
stands the Captain of the station. His
rank is indicated by red cap. His
uniform is exceedingly snowy and often
bloomington the men as q rule are
stalwart and we'll formed. He wears
high-heeled boots. dark-blue trousers.
relieved by . red stripe, q double
breasted military frock coat. with gold
bait and rows of bEass buttons Ranged
behind him are the guards, who are also
IN uniform, but whose caps are dark
blue. After the train comes to . halt
the chief guard jumps to the ground
and ealutes tho station-master. Then
the other men step forward. and the

Washes for Breakfast.-A writer II
the Iowa Homestead offers the follow.
ing very practical advice: Washes arr
q quick breakfast The crops of the
fowls in the morning are empty, and il
is necessary that they should havl
something for quick assimilation. Il
takes a number of hours for whole
grain to digest. This ground grain
very quickly does it's work. Into thu
mashes meat or condition powder OF
any tonic can be readily put, and thu
results are more satisfactory. We feet
nashes the entire year. During the
winter We mix ground grain with boil.
ing hot water; during the summer w
use cold water. In the winter We give
the mash in the morning, and grain a,
noon and night. During the summer
We give but two meals day-mornins
and evening. In the mashes, too, we
are able to give more of a variety than
with whole grain.
Argentine Live Stock.-The number:
of live stock the Argentine Republic

s>s.. VI. Hogs.

0Asec VI. Hogs.
It has frequently been stated that No
are raising too many sheep in this
country. and. therefore. that which
ought to be a source Of wealth to US
is frequently a source Of depression.
the overlooking of the market with
hogs and hog products not leaving q
fair margin. either to the farmers or to
the packers. says National Provisioner.
1t is easy to state the source Of the
trouble, but it is more difficult to sug-
gest remedy. In this instance. how
ever, We are not entirely beyond the
possibilities of remedy and relief. We
nave for many years advised the culti-
walton of mutton as desirable meat,
and the raising of more sheep and less
hogs. The farming papers of the coun-
try have taken sides with us, and HE
supported our views. and there is no
reason why the farmers should not do
what is in their interest and what will
help their bank accounts. A large part
OF the wealth of England and Australia
Is derived from sheep raising. An in
crease In the number of sheep in this
country would add considerably to the
wealth OF the nation, especially of the
farmers and of the packers. the more so
now. when wool is amply protected and
ought to bring a good price. Our con-
temporary, Wallace's Farmer, urges the
farmers in the same manner as we do.
and speaks especially for the state of
iowa, which is now a very large
hog-raising state, but whatever
relates to Iowa relates to
great extent to other Western
states, and also to the South o.
course, it will not do to raise sheer
on ground which is too fat or wet. But
In the bluegrass section of this countr.
sheep would mature as well. If not bet
ter. than they do in the British islands.
We have hotter summers, it is true, but
our winters are more even than the,
are in England. The packers and con-.
mission men ought to educate the farm
ers to understand more the value of
the sheep as an investment and of NUT
ton as desirable food. Sheep need
SOAuc CdIc, Uul IL IL IS bestowed upon
them there is no better investment to
the farmer. Five acres of land will
take care of twenty-five sheep and
their lambs during the summer. and in
winter no farmer will miss what they
eat. Their fleeces will pay about 81
apiece and their lambs a year old, If
properly cared for, are good for s.. If
fattened to 100 pounds weight and put
on the present market they are good
for IS by the carload. It has been fig
ured out by an authority that with oats
and corn at 30 cents bushel and oil
meal at SIPS per hundred, lamb from
the time that it is two weeks old until
it reaches 100 pounds, which is in the
eleventh month, will not consume more
than $1.35 worth of grain. In our opin-
ion, the time is not very far distant
when. with the scarcity of beef and
with the high price which cattle COM
mand, we will have to resort to eating
mutton. There will also be q great ex-
port demand for the article. We have
too much corn, too many hogs, too few
sheep.

In several of the Australian colonies,
says the Chicago Record, both general
savings banks and postal savings banks
exist, both being under control OF the
rovernment. This is true of Victoria,
New South Wales and Tasmania. Post
Office banks alone exist in Queensland
and Western Australia, and general saw
ines banks alone in South Australia. In
Canada Gov. savings banks antedate the
postal savings banks, but are giving way
TO the latter as the more convenient and
suitable institution. In some countries
having the general savings bank as dis
tineuished from the postal savings bank
use il made Of the postofices as places
Of deposit for transmission-to to the gener-
a bank. As between the general savings
banks under government control and the
postal savings bank there is no question
that the latter is tho one for ADOPTION IN
the United States. The postonice has IN
operation machinery that could be utii-
lied for the protection Of small savings
deposits with comparatively little al
ditional trouble and expense
