HERE AND THERE.

Sheep will live and thrive on pas.
turage SO short that cattle can not
get enough grass during the day to
do them over night.
In making the best quality of
butter it is essential that the cream
should have uniform consistency
as well as uniform ripeness.
The mesquite grass of western
Texas furnishes ideal pasturage for
sheep, and the scrub oaks of any Dor
ton Of Texas form ideal browsing for
goats.
-Culling is one thing that has been
neglected as much as feeding. No
matter how well fowls are fed II the
poorest ones are not culled out there
will be retrogression.
"A combination that has never
been fruitful of good results is that
OF trying to grow an exposed garden
and poultry at one and the same time.
No hen on earth can refrain from

Feeding sheep are scarce lust
now; how long that condition will
prevail at market centers defies prog
nostfcation, but range men, who hold
the visible supply, display no DISPOSE
ton to loosen up.
The very people who ought to
have the best milk and butter really
have the worst Do we allude to
farmers? Well, that is just the size
and shape of it. Some don't know
how and some know how, but do not
do how.
The man who buys flock + com
mon Mexican goats, and kills or mar
kets the billies, and supplies the flcch
with well bred Angora breeders, will
soon have flock he will be proud of.
To do this he must not permit the
crossbred males to breed, but must
use the knife early and sell them nj

The Arkansas experiment station

On May 4, 1900, six plats were sown
with quantities of seed varying from
one to eight pecks per acre. The
variety used was Whippoorwill. The
results were so contrary to what was
expected that the test was repeated
for 1901, and the previous results CON

Caught In Theft Man Stays His Ac
cuser,
Triton, Ca, June 13.-John r. Webb
was shot at Prattville, Ala, Tuesday
morning by white man named viii
son.
1t appears that Webb missed his
pocketbook from his coat hanging in
his room at the hotel that morning. He
suspected Wilson of the theft and ac-
costed him in the hotel Office. Wilson,
after some words, gave up the pockel-
book and money.
He then borrowed a pistol, 1t is
claimed, and sent word to Webb that
he wanted to see him and have q
friendly talk. Webb refused but lator
met him at the market, and after a
talk Webb turned to walk of.
Wilson, it 10 alleged, drew his rev0l-
yer and fired twice at Webb. Only one
shot took effect, striking Webb in the
left side below the heart, passing
through his body. Three of the intes.
tines were cut
Webb was carried to the Montgom-
cry hospital An operation was per.
formed, but he died Wednesday morn
ing.
Wilson was arrested and is in Pratt
vile Jail, charged with murder. Webb
was a member of a prominent Berrien
county family and was about 80 years
of age.
