Sheep on the Farm.

Hundreds of farmers fail to keep sheep because they have not enough land" This idea that large pastures are necessary to successful growing of sheep is erroneous, and also injurious. Few will deny that even a small flock of sheep is profitable if we'll kept and properly utilized. One hundred head may be considered a small flock, but large enough for most farmers. Fifteen or twenty acres, properly divided and the divisions planted with plants that give a succession of grazing, together with a little grain feed raised on other acres, may be made as profitable as if they had 500 acres to roam over. Thus kept at home and under a good fence, theJ are exempt from most attacks of carniverous animals, such as dogs and wolves, which eat up most of the profits from sheep having unlimited range. e.--Imperial Press.

The Mexican Dollar "Out."

The board of Philippine com missioners has issued procla- nation announcing the demone- ti3ation of the Mexican dollar on and after January 1, 1904.
 Unti! that date the coin will be current at all government offices at the long established rate equivalent to fifty cents, Ameri. can money. It's successor as a medium of exchange is the new Philippine peso of United States coinage. and already af- fectionately called a "Cona at" in the islands in honor of the man who recommended the coinage of the special Philippine subsi- diary currency.

The Eastern Elections.

At the time of going to press full and definite news of the east ern elections had not been re- ceived. It is known, however, that four states, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Nebraska and Ohio, remain solidly in the Re publican ranks. New York has again proved it's title as a politi- cal mystery by going mainly Democratic, while also proving itself ''bughouse" beyond cavil, sans honor, sans decency, by de- claring for Tammany and Tam- manyism, with all that it implies, by the no uncertain plurality of 61, 1,000 votes.
 Taking the general average there is no material change in the political status outside of New York City, as noted, and San Francisco. In the latter the mayeralty candidate of the L& bor party knocked the persimmon.

The Copper Situation.

Much distress to private and public business has been caused by the recent closing downof the great copperindustries, minesand smelters, of the Amalgamated Copper Company, at Butte, Montana. Ostensibly it is caus- ed by a crisis in the long drawn out litigation between the Amal- gamated Company and Heinze, the erstwhile Copper King" and owner of abutting and competing properties.
 Dispassionately viewed, how ever, and with full knowledge of the opinions of experts in the copper trade it appears to be but one more of the typical moves of the representatives of great capital; in other words, a "trust" coup. Experts are unit in say ing that in the store houses of the Amalgamated Company are more than one hundred and fifty million pounds of refined copper mainly accumulated during the time the company was attempt ing to maintain the price of the metal around the F cent mark.
 With a pronounced shortage Tn the production of the refined product in connection with the long admitted fact that consum- CTS in general have, for a long period past, pursued a hand to mouth policy in the matter of purchases; it even being main tained that none had above two or three weeks supply, it will be admitted that the limit to which the price may go will be a high one.
 In London the price advanced within a fraction of ? cents a pound within two days, being last sold there fraction over 15 cents pound. With the expect ed advance to 17 cents, and some prophecy even 20 cents, the Amalgamated company will req lize from six to eight million dollars on it's stored supplies above what could have been se- cured previous to the shut down, and. ill view of the fact that the present operating companies cannot hope to even meet the normal consuming demand fig nres will not only remain high but the Amalgamated plants will most likely remain closed for d long period to make stable the gain in prices.

More Railroad Talk.

There has been great deal of San Diego railroad talk during the past several years. but it has thus far proved to be of an entirely ephemeral char acter. Tine present report bears the earmarks of something more subst an- tial. The enterprise is being fostered and promoted by a number of San Diego and Phoenix promoters and capitalists, who have no connection with any of the organizations which have heretofore held the boards. It may be said. also. that the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific are in no way concerned in Or connect ed with the movement.
 The plan of the company is to make Phoenix, for the present. the eastern terminus, crossing the Colorado at Yuma. and penetrating the famous Im- perial section between that point and San Diego. The adoption of this plan, which would mean much to Phoenix, involves. it is thought. the ernest sup port of the people of this city. as not less than two other plans looking to- ward the building of d road east from San Diego are known to leave this city entirely out.
 The best known of these plans is the one formulated two years ago by com mittee of San Diego citizens. appointed by the people of San Diego to promote an eastern outlet. This committee was provided with 5000. by popular sub scriptiOn. with which to prosecute it's work. Little was ever done. beyond the making of survey. which crosses the Colorado below Yuma and runs thence direct to Benson, and the securing of rights-of-way and a franchise which will expire on January l, 1904.
 If it be possible for Phoenix tO ipHu- ence the securing of this point as the eastern terminal of the inevitable San Diego road, it is the business of Phoenix to do so--Pbonix Enterprise.

A Dollar "Mex." Valedictory.

On January lst, 1904, the new subsidiary coinage designed for the Philippine colonies will be the only legal tender money, alone receivable for public dues on the islands. This action will permanently retire the Mexican peso, or dollar, that has so long held sway in that part of the world as a medium of exchange, and with them will also go the vast number of other foreign coins that, owing to the lack of special monetary system under the Spanish domination, have been for long years past dumped into the markets of the islands; always to the loss of the seller and the gain of the buyer.
 Monetary calculations have heretofore been made in prac- tically all the existing standards of monetary values. Within the period covered by American management government officers have found that Tn handling but two kinds of currency they were obliged to figure in five different standards of value. It was the bete noir and despair of auditors and clerks, and the~necessarily cumbrous system of exchange was so much of a mystery that, as the Manila Times aptly ex- pressed it, "the lucky owner of dollar lost two, three, four or five cents every time"
 The item of depreciation in the value of silver Was one of great moment and often overlooked, with consequent loss to many. In one particular instance it is related that d lum ber dealer who figured on fair profit on shi = load of lumber, delivered to tie insular authorities, discovered that his contract price, when converted into United States coin, was short by $500 of the original cost of the lumber on the Pacific coast.
 Government figures on the Mexican dollars are to the effect that between June 1 and Octo- ber g the exports from the lsl- ands of these coins exceeded the imports by S7,246,24S, and the opinion is held that by the end of the current year the jOr part of the estimated S300. GOO still retained in the islands will have been exported.
 The general commercial bene- fits of tbe new currency will be far reaching, and thus far the innovation has been most wei. come and satisfactory. Should, however, the price of silver but touch fraction ab,ve 64 cents an ounce, a probability that is by no means remote, the bullion value of the new peso will equal its monetary worth and may cause some trouble through the use of many of the coins in the arts.
