The Two volcoA
A voice went forth throughout the LAID.
And an answering voice replied
From the rock-pilcd mountain fastnesses
To the surging ocean tide.
And far the blazing headlands cleaned
With their land-a awakening fires;
And the kIl-tops k!ndled. peak and
height.
With q hundred answering pyres.
The quick youth snatched his fathers
sword,
And the yecman rose in might:
And the aged grandsire nerved him there
For the stormy field OF fight:
And the hi',men left their srass-grown
Ard their f,ocks and herds unkept:
And the pIou:hshare Of the husbandman
In the half-turned furrow slept.
They wore no steel-wrought panoply.
No: shield Eor morton CLEANED:
Nor the 7Eaunt OF hammered blazonry
In the morning sunlight streamed.
They bore no marsha,led. firm array
Like q torrent on they poured,
With the firelock. and the mowers scythe.
And the old forefathers' sword.
And again q voice went sounding o..
Ard the tonfires streamcd on h!gI:
And the hill-tops rang 10 the headlands
back
With the shout of victory!
So the land redeemed her heritage.
BY the free hand mailed In right.
From the war-shod. hireiinS foeman
tread,
And the ruthless grasp OF might.

Lamb Crop Short.

It Is set forth in a bulletin on the
sheep industry of the country, recen:-
ly issued by the National Live Stock
association, that while the industry,
as a whole, was never in a more pros
perous condition, the lamb crop does
net show as large a percentage as
usual, due mainly to the universal
cold rains during the lambing season.
All eections report forage to be the
finest in ten years. and the lambs are
larger and fatter than usual at this
time of the year. the only exception
being in one or two limited sections
along the Pacific coast. where drou:h
has prevailed. According to in:orma-
tion received direct from owners. t
appears that less sheep will be market
ed this year than last. The high price
Of western wool. IA to Is cents per
pound. and the fancy prices paid COR
western alfa!fa-fed lambs on the east
e,n markets, make it much more
profitable for breeders to grow wool
aud lambs than mutton. 1t is too early
yet to correctly estimate the wool

crease of 10 per cent is a conservative
figure.

British necrai.ine Methods.

@sS~e ~sOssso
From the New York Times: The
methods of enlisting recruits for the
army in Great Britain differ greatly
from those employed in the United
States. 1t is mainly in the country
districts where the youths are dazzled
with the gorgeous trappings Of the
soldiers that the government relies for
its raw material to replenish ard
strengthen the army. De:achments OF
different branches of the regular sery.
ice are detailed to the principal towns
Of each county. a band is furnished
each recruiting station and it is the
music that first attracts the peasants:
Fairs and markets are held in all
small towns and on such occasions the
full detachment from the nearest sta
tion. in charge of sergeant. is always
present. 1t is during the afternoons,
after the farmers have disposed OF
their produce and their young assist
ants have imbibed the usual quantities
CT malt. that the strains Of Garry
Owen, CT. some other enlivening airs
are heard on the street. Probably fifty
redcoats. neat. clipper and wariike, fol-
low the band. The sergeant. pompous
and grand. brings up the rear. To a
haif-tipsy lad there is nothing more
charming than the sight Of the war
like reacca:s. He follows with the
crowd into the -ec-uitin: quarters ard
actually before he realizes wha: he has
done is /: member Of her majesty's
service. The acceptance of a shilling
from the sergeant binds the contract.
which nothing save desertion can at
terward break
The Irish patriots have always tried
TO prevent young men from joining the
British army. but their efforts have
been rendered almost fruitless by the
music and trappings Of the recruiting
detachments.

Contsgso1s 0seo Evas Ahoot Cattle

notices have been received by the sta
ton relative to outbreaks Of sore eyes

that the disease il new to many local.

losses are always stated to be large and

comes inilamed, "blood-shot," and in .
few days the central part Of the eye

bulging portion will be from the size
Of pea to that Of grain Of corn.
Underneath the surface there will be

In some cases the bulged portion

place within 4 week, but 1t requires
about six weeks to run the full course
The result is that a few are blind IN

Treatment: The disease Is ccnta-

diseased from the healthy should be
made cs soon as the first symptoms ap-
pear. Whenever practical! keep the cat:
tie UP in the stable during the day and
let them out at night. This can be done
as rule with cows. The local treat
Eent CT the eyes IS to apply ono per
cent solution Of atropiEe twice a day.
and apply calomel dust once a day. The
calomel can usually be applied by US
ing one Of the small insect busting
boxes. A wash Of saturated solution
Of boracic acid has been found to be
of some service. The attendant should
be sure to wash his hands with csrbol-
ic acid solution, or some other disinfec-
tart after giving the treatment. as
there is possibility Of conveying tho
disease from cattle to people.

Dislufectins Pens at Fairs.

O0l01eCtlnS fo0S NJ foltos
Indiana Experiment Station: AS
the fair season is opening it is I'M
rortant to observe all the measures
that can be taken to prevent the spread
of disease among stock. People do not
exhibit infested stock purposely, but
unknowiDgly, and at times cause se-
rious loss. At the last session OF the
State Legislature a law was passed re-
quirics the disinfection of swine pens.
the disinfection Of exhibit crates and
swine before unloading and a state
ment that no cholera had been upon
the premises within two months prior
to exhibiting. The law is defective in
some respects, but has very beneficial
effect, and has met with little oppost-
tion. Last fall flfty-seven fairs were
held in the state at which hogs were
exhibited, and all but five disinfected
their pens. In 1896 losses aggregating
more than $1,000 were directly trace
able to contagion on fair grounds. Last
year only two reports were made OF
contagion and the loss was small. In
diana breeders exhibiting in adjoin-
ing states where such precautions
were not taken brought back disease
and suffered considerable loss. The
disirfecting of fair grounds should be
done a week or more in advance. Re-
move all litter, allow the sun to do as
much as possible and give everything
a coat OF white-wash, or apply a solu-
ton of chloride of lime, four ounces to
the gallon of water. The state law
specifies that ten per cent solution Of
carbolic acid should be used. Use the
aciL as spray twice day during the
exhibition. A spray pump is the cas-
lest means for applying a disinfectant.
