IMPROVING. THE BREEDS.

what is the end and purpose of i'm.
provement in breeding? It is and
cannot fail to be the improvement of
any breed for the purpose for which
it is kept and valued The Merinos.
for their special varieties of wood for
distinct uses; the coarse woods Tor
their similar product, but for other
uses; the medium or clothing woods in
the same way. and it can be readily
seen that as the fleece is the specially
valuable product which can be varied
only by special breed, and the mutton
is very much the same in all sheep.
varieties OF sheep must ever and al.
ways be cultivated, changed and i'm.
proved, for the fleece first, and for
mutton, as it may happen, excepting
that In this respect the most rapidly
and early maturing varieties will al
ways excel in desirability for the
butchers use as feeding lambs. We
must look forward very soon to the
fact that our fast increasing popula.
ton will demand a large increase in
the production of mutton, in spite of
the fact that a large proportion of
our people are not as yet naturally
mutton eaters. This taste, however
Will soon be- acquired, for it cannot
always be ignored that mutton is the
most nutritious, digestible and con-
venient of all meats, and economy will
prevail over an undeserved and I'm.
profitable stigma, and when this hap.
pens the use of the more convenient
and more digestible and nutritious
mutton will greatly increase. All the
more reason for this because of the
greater convenience of it and the ease
with which small focks may be kept
Tor local use, to supply small villages
and farmers families. And for all
the varied uses of the sheep we have
breeds enough and to spare; and
rather than to found any new breed
FOR any reason whatever, it will be
to mix the breeds we now have. so
that the best sheep for the farmer and
FEEDER, and for the more extensive
use on the Western pastures, will be
that one which will best adapt itself
to its environments. And this we
cannot help but think will be based
on the Shropshire mixed with the
heavier Merinos. But anyhow. we
cannot think that there is any place
for any new breed of sheep either as
a mutton or as wool bearer, and
that the only efforts that have been
made in this line for over twenty-five
years past, one in Kentucky and one
IN New York. will doubtless be the
last to be made by the most adven-
turous and enterprising hunter afte.-.
something new of this modern, prac-
teal age.-Henry Stewart, in Ameri-
can Sheep Breeder.

A FEW PIGEON NOTES.

The Homer pigeon is more popular
with SQUAD raisers than any other
variety. 1t stands confinement wsi'
and is a large, well-built bird. inc
SQUADS are large and never turn oarA
when dressed.
Common pigeons are not liked on
account of their small size; BESIDES
their SQUADS are inclined to turn darh
when dressed.
Pigeons are not believers in NOR
monism. Equal numbers of cocks ana
hens must be procured. An odd COCK
is capable of much mischief. he VIII
destroy the eggs and squads.
They are fond Of a good bath. Dur
ing nice weather they should be given
fresh water in their tubs twice a
week.
Pigeons that are penned up shouia
not be fed new grain, as it does not
agree with them. They require
variety of good, sound food. They
are fond of wheat, millet, hemp seed'
corn, buckwheat, etc. They will soon
devour salt Goldfish tackled up INSIDE
their house.
Keep fresh gravel before them al
ways.-W., in Farm Journal.

GOOD BULLS IMPORTANT.

Prof. Hansen calls attention to the
fact that greater stress is laid upon
obtaining good milk cows than noted
milking strains of good bulls, and
says:
1T is matter of course that the
bull should exhibit signs of race It's
outward appearance ought to guar
antee the transmission of its descend
ants of the desired conformation.
Where the buyer has the yield of milk
in view it behooves him to bear in
mind that this is a matter that de-
ponds on the sire as we'll as on the
dam. good mich cow will not be
the mother of good mich cows If the
bull has not also belonged to a race
Of good mixers This is a principle
of breeding that deserves more atten-
tion than has hitherto been paid to
1t. Unfortunately, statistics have
been waning hitherto; it requires
time to collect the necessary data, and
a herd of some size. in order to COM
pare the milk yields of cows the pro-
geny of particular bull with the
yields of other cows, the descendants
OF other bulls. This has been done by
Herr Schrewe, of Kleinhoff- Papian.
The experiments were made with 1853
cows, descendants of four bulls, and
their yields Of milk within a period
varying from three to six years, not
merely In relation to the quantities,
but also their richness in fatty mat
ter and butter. The results conclu-
sively demonstrate the influence of
the bulls on the milk yields of their
female descendants. Indiana Farm

Cougar Killed in Coon Hunt.

A coon hunt that ended in a cougar
killing was the experience of C. ].
Oglesby ON Fall Greek few days
since. The dogs took up the trail of
the coons and had run but short dis
tance when they came upon the noun
tain lion, which they freed. The beast
had hardly crawled beyond the reach
of the snarling pack when the hunter
came up and brought down the big
cat with enc shot. The hide, when
stretched. measured 1-2 feet by 1-2
feet.
The coons are supposed to have met
the cougar before the hunter came up.
and to have suffered for it.-Portland

Live Little Nation, Japan.

An association is being organized
by the chambers of commerce of sew

OF trade with China by means of COM
mercial museums. An effort will be
made to induce the Japanese Govern

China and r9nt thsm to the assceia-

The idea did not originate with
them. for similar exhibitions OF mer-
camille goods have been made here
