Sheep Growing states.

Montana remains at the head of the
wool-producing states of the Union. The
report of the acting statistican of the
department of agriculture shows that
this state has more sheep than any other
state in the Union.
The report indicates that Montana has
5,270, ,063 sheep, having an average value
of 1921 head when the estimate was
made.
Wyoming is second with 4,602, ,658
head. with an average value of So a
head. New Mexico is third with $780,
466, with an average value of $l.93 a
head, Idaho is fourth on the list with
3,5SS, ,O34. 50 q head.
Next in order are Ohio, Oregon, Cali.
fOrnia and Michigan, each above the o.
600, 900 mark. Colorado, Texas, Wiscon-
sin, New York and Arizona each have
more than 100000.
The most interesting thing about the
sheep census is the fact that the 81 $780,
IA head in the country shows decrease
Of II 1874 732 head.
That IS a shrinkage in numbers that
is highly important to flock raisers all
over the land. The total number Of
sheep reported in the United States last
wear was 63 ,964,S76.

War OF 1912, Mexican War, Civil War
and Spanish War. With such a record

HOstetter's Stomach Bitters it has also
been truly named "The leader OF it's

She Can Farm.

Connecticut farmers, who continually
bemoan that the old state is used up for
farming, may learn something to their
advantage by consulting pretty Miss
Bertha E. Weed, who makes money till
ing tough little farm in the town of
North Canton. Miss Weed superin-
tends all the operations on her place, is
up with the sun every day, raises stock,
sells milk and butter and has big yard
full of some of the best fowls in the
state. What is still more wonderful,
she has learned how to make money in
the risky business of raising spring
chickens for market. She makes
small fortune yearly selling eggs. Some
of them are extraordinarily large. She
presented couple of them to the editor
Of the Hartford Courant this week.
They weighed half pound apiece, and
are the biggest hens eggs reported in
the state this season.-New York Sun.

MIR. Browning was an intense admirer.

able length portion Of the Vision Of

When he finished, Mr.. Browning said,
II have not repeated those lines for
forty years, bnt they are craven on my
memory" Then he burst out with the
remark, Byron was one of the most
wonderful men ever created" and turn

arm in the way he had when much in

Mr.. Cotter Morrison agreed that as q
satirist Byron was unriyaled, but threw
