Thinks the United States Real Mean,
But Much Good wiz come to spain.
Just before sailing for Spain Gen.
Blanco, in an interview said, among
other things:
"Spain and Spanish people will ac-
cept any treaty entered into with the
United States without any reserva-
tion, and will abide by all agreements
expressed or implied. All protests
will be made before the treaty Is
signed. 1t was an unholy war, forced
upon us, and history will mark it as
a disgrace to the American people,
never-the- our people will resume
friendly relations with the United
States. and l hope the two nations
will never again 60 to war;"
II can see many benefits that Spain
may derive from defeat. The people
of Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philli-
pines are Spanish in blood and senti-
ment, and soon all bitterness tow
ard the mother country will wear off.
Then commercial relations will be re.
vived, and under fair commercial rul.
ings Spain will find In her old colonies
a greater market than ever before"

During the past year the authorities
have changed the course of study so
that it is possible for a student to
complete the regular studies of his
course and receive his diploma at al
most any time of the year. For this
purpose graduating exercises will be
held semi-annually at the end of the
second and fourth quarter. The first
exercise under the now arrangement
occurred last Friday evening, when
Mr.. j. c. Harding received the degree
of "Bachlor of Science" The. cha D.
ell was nicely filled with large crowd
of Mr. Hardings fellow students and
friends who gave him warm greeting
as he stepped onto the platform. Al
ter song the audience was favored
with piano solo by Miss Cross. This
young lady is a new student and shows
good musical ability. In his remarks
DR.. Heston stated that he had ex-
pected the Rev. II. ii. YOungman Ia
deliver the address OF the evening, but
unfortunately that gentleman had
sustained such injuries from an acci.
dent the previous evening that 1t was
impossible for him to be present. lie
then introduced the Rev. j. S. Hill,
of Aurora, who had kindly consented
to fill the place on few hours notice
Mr.. Hill, who spoke on the subject Of
"IdeaIs OF life" is a very clear and for
chile speaker and carried conviction
with every word he uttered. He held
the attention OF his hearers every mo-
ment Of time he was speaking and his
frequent sallies OF wit kept them in
good humor. 1t wasa very practical
and common sense address, and was
worthy of the applause which it re-
ceived. The next number on the
program was violin solo by Mr.. Hu-
sted which pleased everyone, as the
selections by that gentleman always
do. Then followed the event Of the
evening, the granting of the diplomas,
both from the Athenian society, Of
which Mr.. Harding was an efficient
and active member, and from the
board Of regents, comforting the de-
gree Of B. S. The class Of '99 pre-
sented very fine book as a token of
their esteem and best wishes. The
program was brought to close with
a vocal trio by the Misses Colgrove,
Parker and Mason.

lambs and f1eeees, and had good flock of
young sheep left, besides cash income
of -, 900 in Years. This was ar excep-
tionally profitable venture, but the ar
rangement of keeping sheep in that man
mel almost invariably proves profitable to
both parties. lie thinks the plan could
be adopted here with mutual benefit to
the capitalist who furnished the sheep,
and the young farmer who wished to
enter the business, but Who had but little
capital
He stated that few years ago scab
made its appearance in Manitoba and
Montana aud at one time the matter look
ed serious fol the sheep owners. The
farmers tried dipping, and in three years
the scab was entirely eradicated. He
thinks New England farmers keep too
many bucks, The most successful sheep
raisers allow at least 90 ewes to one buck
and some as high as 100 or more.
Prof. Gowell's ideas are of value as
coming from a man of intelligence and
education, who has made agriculture a
study and combined .cience with practi-
cal work. He says the business of the
Maine farmer is raising and selling crops.
The dairy, beef cattle, horses, sheep,
hogs and poultry are merely channels for
marketing the products of the farm. Some
prefer one method, and some another.
| The experience of the Maine experiment
station at Orono is interesting and instruc-
tive. They kept d flock of % Shropshire
breeding ewes 6 years. The sheep were
pastured in summer on acres, and at the
end of that time the land was in better
condition than when they were first placed
upon it. The average wool clip per year
was S l 2 to 10 pounds per sheep and the
percentage of new lambs from 120 to 10
| In dry seasons the sheep were fed one
half pint of bran per day, but in good sea
sons no bran was fed. Rutabagas were
/ fed through the winter. They had water
every day and salt was where they could
get at it at all times They were provid-
/ ed with shelter and We're not allowed to
get their tleeces wet, as it takes the wool "a
long time to dry out and there is danger
OF the sheep taking cold. They should
live out of doors as much as possible, but
be provided with protection from rains.
Prof. Woods stated that the sheep at the
experiment station paid the largest profit
of any kind of stock kept.
1t was suggested in the meeting that
when the next farmers institutes are held
in Waldo county the sheep industry
should be one Of the subjects for consid-
Grafton. There is, without doubt grow
ing interest in sheep husbandry in this
section and it would be well if the indus
try could be largely increased.

More About the Sheep Industry.

The Journal of last week gave a report
of the sheep raisers' meeting held in Sea-
side Grange Hall, Belfast, Oct. 4th. We
give here a few additional points brought
out at the meeting and by subsequent in
terviews, which We're omitted from that
report foT lack of space;
Some details from the paper of Asa
Quint of Burlington, Me, are of interest.
Mr. Quint said that since 1865. he had
made a practice of cross breeding. He
began with the common American Meri-
no buck that sheared a i pound fleece of
short. medium grade, fine wool This
buck he used on Cotswold ewes The
product was SO satisfactory, that he saved
all his eve lambs and bred them to the
same buck. The lambs that these cross
bred ewes produced were beauties when
months old. The mother of these inbred
lambs sheered a fleece of wool to 10
pounds OF medium grade. Now these in
bred ewes at the first sheer produced from
u to l6 pounds per fleece which sold for
80 cents per pound. For 16 years he kept
this small flock of 20 to 30 ewes and a
buck, but was compelled to change from
WOOL to mutton breed to eater to the
Whims OF the demands of the markets
He bought a stockv- built ram of the OK.
ford breed and used him to cross his
>outhdown ewes. The cross was very
unsatisfactory. He would prefer a Ram
7oaillet % an American Merno buck and
L Cots~oIo eve. These will produce
cross bred lamb that any farmer may well
feel proud Of.
