West Virginia Mountainec9.

The West Virginia mountaineer lives
close to nature, and, viewed from many
standpoints, the relation is character
istic by pleasing amenities. Juicy ber-
ries refresh him along the road; nuts
drop into his path; sang (ginseng),
which makes one Of his sources Of
revenue, reveals itself to his eye as he
follows the COWS to pasture: cool
brook springs up to quench his thirst
when weary Of following the plow;
pine knots are always within reach to
make a light, as well as warmth; mud
and stones easily combine In his hand
to shape and .daub a chimney; and q
trough dug out Of an old tree furnishes
a receptacle that is as good for dough
at one end as for baby at the other.

American Horses in GERMANY.

A"0TlCdH T1OTSOS III O0rmdnys
American horses as we'll as manu-
features are making inroads upon the
German markets and are giving the
subjects of Emperor William some
concern. Consul Winter at Annaberg,
in dealing with the importation of
horses into Germany, sends an article
from the Hamburger Nachrichten,
which says: Corporations from Amer
lea have caused the horse raisers of
Holstein to suffer much of late. A
stock company has just been formed
in Berlin for the express purpose of
importing horses from the United
States. The Americans have succeed
pares favorably in every way with the
Holstein animal, especially in those
points so highly priced in work
horse-namely: broad hips and large
build generally. The best markets for
FIolstein horses has always been the
provinces of Saxony, Thuringia, and
Brunswick. The demand is created by
the large sugar factories. This mar
ket has been decreasing of late, owing
to American horses being purchased
in Berlin. A few days ago this Berlin
company shipped a drove of eighty
through Hamburg on route for Milan,
Italy, where they are to be used on
the tramways Almost every week
long freight train filled with american
horses leaves the Berliner Bahnhof for
various parts of Germany. In spite of
expensive freight and tariff of 81
per head the Americans have built up
a respectable competition in the Ger
man market.
Use a Pure-Bred Sire.-In selecting
a flock, would not say to purchase
pure-bred ewes. While purity of breed
ing is an absolute necessity on the
part of the sire, it is not at all essential
on the part of the dam. Purity Of
breeding on the part of the sire tends:
to render him prepotent, and, because
of this prepotency, it gives him the
ability to effect improvement. The lack
of purity Of breeding on the part Of
the dam takes away her power to re-
sist change in the direction desired
when mated with pure-bred sire, con-.
sequently dams of very mixed breeding
are excellent material upon which to
commence the work of up-grading, so
far as blood elements are concerned.
Allow me to emphasize, here, that, I'M
der no consideration, use anything but
a pure-bred registered ram, and in
making selection be sure and get
good individual as we'll as a good ped
igree.-E. S. kirkpatrick.

OFF TO THE TRANSvAAL.
A Lyric of Castigation.

The Bell Publishing company OF New
York has put forth poem by that rep
rcsentativc poet, Henry Austin, entitled
off to the Transvaal, All Epic OF the
Hour" in which Great Britain is indig
nantly scored in ringing phrases for the
trail OF blood with which she is smear
ing Africa in her Infamous effort to sub
jugatc a free people whose land and
gold she covcts.
Mr. Austin's poem is quantity en-
titled, somewhat in the form OF the po-
litical pamphlet of the last century, and
is dedicated to the English nation at
large and with disrcspect profound to
such Jameson raiders OF Parnassus as
Mcssrs. Alfred Austin, Algernon Swim
burnc and Rudyard Kipling."
South Africa, notable as the grave OF
military regulations, bids fair to be the
grave Of British prestige, whatever the
outcome OF the war, and it will stand 20
the lasting honor Of an American poet
that at the very beginning OF the con-
hict he put himself fearlessly on record
in noble words of scorn and indigna-
ton:
