Recommendation of Chief Surgeon
Woodruff Turned Down.
MANILA, via Hong Kong, July a.
Chief Surgeon Woodruff considers that
the increase in the military force in the
Philippines will necessitate the employ
ment of forty additional surgeons. Sur
geon Woodhull's recommendation to
that effect has been disapproved by
Major General E. S. Otis, commanding
the United States forces here.
There are nearly 5000 soldiers in hos.
pital. The official report last week
showed 1000 in the hospital in Manila,
and there are several hundred at San
Fernando and other garrisons. There
are also 275 sick in quarters in Manila.
The regimental surgeons report that
large numbers of soldiers on duty are
unfit for service.

There is nc doubt but that the bacon

producers as we have, and as our mar
kets become more discriminating hogs
Of this type will be raised to fill the
demand for leaner pork.

Cheviot. For the Mountains.

Take him all round, the Cheviot is q
beauty. Better still, his beauty is con-
siderably more than "skin Deep" for
he has character, compactness, cout-
age, carriage and cleverness beyond
any Of the hill breeds, and with his re-
markable, unusual and altogether eco
nomic combination Of wool and mutton
traits, is destined to a very important
place in American sheep economy. Of
all the breeds now in this country none
are so well suited to the hill and moun-
tain districts as the bold, self reliant,
hardy, hustiing Cheviot, and that set
ties the question Of his future status in
progressive sheep farming in this
country. All that is necessary for ma
t%ionalizing the Cheviot in America is
more push and enterprise among his
friends and promoters. American
Sheep Breeder.
Fifty Thousand Dollars Insurance
on a jersey Bull.
Application has been made for insur-
ance Of $4,000 on the famous young
Jersey bull Merry Maiden's Son, owned
at Hood farm, Lowell, Mass. This is
the highest amount Of insurance ever
asked for on a bull or cow. Merry
Maiden's Son is believed to be the most
famous Jersey bull living, as he is the
son of Merry Maiden, the champion
sweepstakes cow in all three tests COM
bined at the Worlds fair, and his sire
is Brown Bessie's Son, whose dam won
the 80 days and 80 days tests at the
Worlds fair. Thus Merry Maiden's
Son unites the blood Of these two fam
GUS cows, and great results are expect.
ed from his progeny.

A sTEER AFTER GRASS.
A Norfolk County Farmcr.a Experle,

A Norfolk County Farmers Experience
as Splinter.
MT. j., well-known and popular
young farmer OF Norfolk county, is
the possessor of a young steer which
in life,
This steer seems to have a mania
Tor visiting, and when he makes a
visit 1t is one OF which there seems
to be no ending. His favorite visiting
place is the farm of MIR. H., which is
about five miles from the J. home
steao, and though he has never re-
ceiVed any Virginia hospitality at Mr..
HIS, the sweet grass which grows in
abundance at the H. farm seems to
draw his steership to the place. no
matter how harsh his reception might
be. 49,
Last Thursday evening Mr.. H. rode
up 10 Mr.. US to inform him that the
steer was again an unwelcome visitor
10 MS place and asked that he be taken
away as soon as possible. Mr.. 7.
promised to do SO. and bright and
early next morning set out for the III.
farm to make his promise good.
arriving at the farm he found his
steer enjoying the good grass, but in
no mood to be peacefully led back to
ms own place OF habitation.
Securing a rope tightly about the
steers horns after an hours chase
around the farm, Mr.. ]. started back
nome, the steer bringing up the rear.
After about two-thirds of the distance
nad peen covered, Mr.. US hauds be-
came tired of holding the rope, so he
thoughtlessly tied it around his waist
ana. thrusting his hands into his
pockets, began to whistle tune
Inc steer, who had up to this mo-
ment submitted to defeat gracefully.
began to mediate over the sweet,
juicy grass he had left behind, and
seeing Mr.. Us had about forgotten
tlrat such thing as a ster existed in
this world decided to go back and eat
not
Suddenly he rolled right about face,
bringing Mr.. J. to a similar position.
and started back in real horse fashion
to the place he had recently left, so
much against his will
Resistance was useless on Mr. Us
part, and finding he could not get the
rope united from around his waist. he
began to wonder what race-horse
record his steership would break on
the trip. After about a mile had been
travelled, the steer put on an extra
squirt, which carried Mr.. Us feet from
under him, but he stiM continued the
trip in the air. A farmer standing on
the roadside saw the flying objects
coming in his direction and, recog-
nizing Mr.. J., said as they flew past,
Hello. j., whar is you going so early
this morning?" "Thunderation and
popcorn" answered J., don't ask
me, ask the steer; all l. can tell you
is we are moving" The runaway
steer never stopped until he reached
his goal, and now MIR. j., who escaped
unhurt, will bet his steer can distance
any race horse in the country in a
race for grass.
