the suburbanite on the accommodation

how a man who is unable to remember
one thing is helped by having to re-
member two. If I tie string around
my finger, must recall the purpose of
wearing it, which | never can do. If

to carry an umbrella, / have double

member something today, and she gave
me word to say over to myself, and
I've forgotten the word. -

BREEDS OF SHEEP.
Distinctive characteristics of Families
Popular In the United States.

Distinctive Characteristics of Families
Popular In the United States.
The Merino is described as small
boned sheep of medium size and COM
pact form, with somewhat light Shout
ders and chest. The weight Of the ewes
will average from so to 20 pounds
They are remarkable for the large
amount of very fine wool which they
yield The Rambouillets are branch Of
the Merinos Their wool is coarser in
fiber than the Merino, and they are not
thought as hardy.
The Oxford Downs are comparative
ly new breed, produced by a course of
cross breeding of Cotswolds and Hamp-
shires, with an occasional mixture Of
Southdown blood. An English authori-
ty says 1.-THE Oxford Downs should
have a nice, dark color, the poll well
covered with wool. adorned with top
knot on the forehead; good fleece of
wool, not too curly; a well formed bar
rel, ON short, dark legs (not gray or
spotted), with good, firm mutton.
They are decidedly the largest of all the
Down breeds, cut more wool and of a
longer staple
The Southdowns have close set
fleece of fine wool, faces and legs of a
dusky brown color, necks slightly
arched, limbs short, with broad and
compact body. They will subsist on
light pasturage, but do better when
we'll fed, mature very early and are
hardy and prolific, often producing two
at birth-a popular breed for the pro
duction of early lambs.
The Shropshires partake of the gener-
al characteristics of the Southdown, but
considerably heavier in fleece and body.
They are called the most prolific of all
breeds.
The Hampshire Downs resemble the
Southdowns, but are very much larger.
They have good constitution, are
hardy and fatten on smaller amount of
early and are good wool bearers, the
fleece usually weighing from five to six
pounds; they do we'll in large focks,
which long wooded varieties do not, and
are valuable for crossing with native
breeds and grades.
The Cotswold is the most popular of
the long wooded class in the United
States; they resemble the Leicesters in
appearance, but are larger and have con-
siderable wool upon the forehead, while
the Leicesters are nearly barefaced.
They have not appeared to do as well in
some sections of Maine as have the
Downs, though some very good ones are

A to Pedigree.

The question is frequently asked,
Which is best on the farm, pedigree OF
individual quality? A long pedigree,
but if there are two or three bad crosses
the whole thing is spoiled or weakened.
The weak parts of the pedigree will be
sure to crop out. A good pedigree with
ont an animal to go with it is worth
nothing. Combine a good pedigree and
a good animal, and you have ideal con
ditions. We must have the pedigree ID
we hope to succeed as breeders, but the
pedigree is not all. D. Ward.

watering stock In Winter.

While farm animals do not require as
much water in winter as in summer,
yet what they do need they need just as
badly at one time as at another. Stock
should not only have all the water they
want, but have it when they want it.
1t is not good economy to compel
stock of any kind to drink ice cold wa
ter. The animal heat must come from
the food, and chilling the blood with ice
water increases the cost of maintaining
animal heat.
Usually water drawn fresh from a
!. well is several degrees warmer than
that in ponds, tanks or even running
streams It will pay to take little
trouble to pump or draw up the water
from the well and let them drink while
It is warm and fresh. This is especially
necessary for the milk cows.
All stock should have water twice
every day at least. OF course it would
be still better if water can be kept where
the animals can help themselves at any
time. but on most farms this cannot be
done without exposing the stock on
some days at least to needless cold and
storms.
It is true that sheep and hogs can live
several days without water. yet they
will thrive better and keep healthier if
given a supply every day. When the
most is to be made out of them at the
lowest cost. watering regularly daily is
an important item. If the weather will
hermit. it is best to let the stock out
and allow them plenty Of time to drink
ali they want, taking care that It IS
pure. fresh and not too cold. --St. Louis
Republic.

TYPICAL COACH HORSE.

travellers abroad have had occasion to
note that the handsomest and most spir-
tied looking cab and carriage horses i'll
Europe are to be seen on the streets and
drives of Paris. These animals are the
outcome of the great care bestowed for
generations by the French government
on the breeding of carriage, draft and
cavalry horses.
AS the base of any kind of horsefesh,
however, there can be nothing better
than the American trotter. Its speed
and robustness of constitution, its intel
ligence and spirit that never give down
render it Invaluable in any cross. Add
to this the size, snowy action and SYM
metry of the French coacher, and you
have horse like the one in the picture,
the most desirable driver in existence
for any kind of a carriage or wagon.
