SUPPLIES FOR THE BoERS.

A recent dispatch from New Orleans
says: the British consul here is au
thority for the statement that New
Orleans has been one of the chief
ports used by Boer agents for secur
ing supplies for use in the Transvaal
and that British ships have been used
largely in their shipment. Corn, II
seems has been one of the principal
staples bought for the purpose and
was bought and shipped away from
this port without creating either com
ment or supicion.
The British authorities appear, how
ever, appear to have been possessed
of more or less information on the
subject for some time, but have been
powerless to stop the shipments. Tbs
plan, the British consul says, has
been to ship the grain and other sup
plies from New Orleans to Rotterdam
and there reship to ports from which
the Transvaal could be reached
British ships being used to carry it as
far as Rotterdam. This season the
quantity of corn shipped from New
Orleans to Rotterdam has been in ex
cess of 100000 bushels, while the
legitimate trade has never been re
quired more than 100000.
The world., 1899-01-04

a miscOnceptiOn on the part of the
British The modern rife that will
kill at 1000 yards and can be fired as
fast as the trigger can be pulled has
totally changed the conditions of bat.
ties. Assault upon men in protected
positions is no longeQr to be thought
of, as the modern magazine rifle ena
bles a comparatively small force to
annihilate four or five times its num-
Der approaching it in the open at the
fastest speed the men can make.
With British conservatism this fact
seems to have been totally overlooked
Because Frenchmen were unable 100
years ago to Withstand a bayonet
charge of British infantry, the Brit.
ish continue to think that all other
men must still be unable to withstand
such a charge, although conditions
have so changed that if British line
of battle should now charge a French
line behind breastworks, it would be
annihilated before it was within fifty
yards of the French line. They are
being taught by cruel experience in
South Africa that the modern maga
zine rifle has totally changed condi
tions under which Iheir infantry was
formerly irresistible in direct charges
and we may look for them to soon
abandon ancient tactics and conduct
campaign according to the necessi
ties and conditions of modern arms.

BEST BREEDS OF SHEEP.

"In answer to inquiries addressed to
him, Prof. John A. Craig, of the Iowa
agricultural college, says, regarding
the breeds of sheep adapted to Western
Washington conditions 1t would be
hard to answer your question without
knowing the exact conditions that ex-
ist in the district you describe, but
from what you say | should suspect
that on the low lands the Cotswold or
some of the other lOng-wooled breeds
would be most satisfactory. Where the
land is more rolling the Shropshire
would likely thrive the best. | expect
that in the rOugher lands the activity
of the Shropshire would enable them
to do better than any other, but this
same characteristic would be against
them when they are put upon lower
and wetter meadows.
THE Cotswolds and other longhair-
ed breeds do best under conditions
where there is a luxuriant growth OF
succulent feed, and | infer that this
would be largely the condition in the
district you describe. Where com
bination can be secured of low, fertile
soil with grazing land that is rough
rolling and dryer, | think the condt,
tions are suitable for the finest type
of ShropShires. This lower land
could be used for growing crops, for
fattening the produce of the breed
ing flocks, kept on the high ground,
but if there is no rolling land in con-
junction with the territory you speak
of. | should most decidedly favor the
Cotswolds"
Prof. Craig is considered the best
authority on sheep in this country,
and from what he says, conditions
suited to both these breeds of sheep
are to be found in Western Washing
ton"
The effect of spraying apple orch
ards and giving them proper care Is
shown by the result obtained by ).
A. Sears, of Hood River. He has a
small orchard, which he sprayed sew
eral times during the season, and has
harvested therefrom 5000 boxes of ap-
pies, for which he has already been
offered $3.50 per box. In his FRUIT
there is not per cent. of the apples
that are wormy, while his neighbors
who have given their orchards less
care find from 40 to so per cent OF
their apples unmarketable because OF
the fact that they are full of worms.

TESTS EOR TRAINMEN.

"a man has to pass almost as stiff a
physical examination nowadays to get
a Job in train service on the big rail-
roads as he does to enlist in the regu-
lar army, said an old railroad man.
He had been out of work almost the
entire summer, and now, when the
overcoat is crowding out the alpaca
he has been hustling about the railroad
yards for employment. He had just
come from a physical examination by
the surgeon of the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy railway (Which he could not
pass) and his story as he told it shows
the care the latter-day railroad mana
gers exercise in the selection OF their
employees.
This man had credentials signed by
men of high standing in the railroad
world, but unless he could get through
that well-nigh impossible barrier to
one who has Pasred life's meridian the
surgeons Office, his "app4cation Is
thrown out. The conditions of en-
ployment in. Chicago are about the
same as in other large railroad CEN
tres; employers everywhere insist up
on a high standard o. physical ana
mental development and absolutely
perfect eyesight Here is the story
"The man looking for work on
railroad, no matter to whom he may Dy
chance apply, is always referred to the
head of the particular department IN
