MAKING CHEAP MUTTON.
Why 1t Does Not Pay to Feed a Fat
Lamb for an Uncertain Chance
of Rise in Price.

"A subscriber asks in somewhat dis
couraged tone, how to produce NUT
ton at present prices with any profit.
A large part of the secret lies in the
high feeding of young, growing an
imals. The younger the animal the
larger the amount of gain it will Elake
for the food consumed. Mutton and
beef producers seem not to have
learned this SO generally as pork pro-
ducers. But it is true in greater Ge
gree of mutton than of pork. The lamb
more quickly than any other animal.
1t is too late now to figure on very
large profits from fe eding last springs
lambs. The only class of lambs that
it will pay to feed through the entire
winter is Merinos that will yield eight
pounds of washed or ten pounds of
unwashed wool. They develop slower
than the mutton breeds md tn g growth
of wccl VIII almost pay for the feed
needed to keep them growing nicely
and they may be rapidly finished upon
the fresh pasture of May.
But it will take more than half the
feed to grow pure-bredmutton lamb
to 20 pounds at five months old than
it will to make him weight 90 al ten
months. Lambs with strongly marked
mutton characteristics should be mar
keted before they are six months old.
There is sometimes profit in buying
this class of lambs at seven or eight
months of age a cent less per pound
than they will bring when finished for
market, and then pushing them to the
finish as rapidly as possible. This
should be done in 90 or 100 days. A
lamb that has once got poor will not
make nancy for either grower or
feeder.
Another element figuring largely in
determining the measure of profits is
selling when the lambs are finished.
1t does not pay to feed fat lamb. for
an uncertain chance of rise in price.
The altogether best rule is to get your
lambs ready for the market in the
shortest possible time and let them go.
If I had flock of lambs now that
were not fat I should hold them over
on light grein feeding and finish on
grass. Corn alone is the grain for fat
tening. with clover hay for roughage;
with other hay or fodder, add oil meal
or Gotten seed meal.-H. P. Miller, IN
Ohio Farmer.

the other from the top downward, then
up over the ears, loosening the rope
in hand as you go. An excellent halter,
capable of holding anything, is thus
formed, as the eright-hand figure shows.
If, after being driven around for some
time, he proves stubborn and will not
follow, take piece of clothesline,
double it, tie knot on the double
end. leaving enough rope to slip down
over his hind quarters almost to the
hooks (the knot remaining over his
coupling), run the two free ends-one
on each side of his neck-through the
halter, and on feeling the pull behind
he will move. Never strike him, and
as soon as he yields a little, pet him.
If the dams are worked. the best way
is to slip on a halter when the colt is
only few days old. and tie alongside
the mother; but if still unbroken, when
there is lots of snow on the ground is
good time to work with the dams,
as the colt is not liza BILE to hurt when it
throws ITSELF. C. Smith, in Farm

Breaking q Colt to Halter Described d
by . Man Who Had Consider
able Experience.

Ny weanling colts had never been
handled, and having run with their
dams until midwin1er, were wild as
deer. To secure them until they be-
came quiet enough to be halted was
the problem. Take about 80 feet of
haif-inch rope; knot one end, so there
will be no danger of it's being pulled
out of your hand by the plunging Of the
colt. On the other end fasten 1A-
inch halter ring, then tie knot in the
rope, leaving enough beyond it to en-
circle the colts neck when drawn taut.
The knot prevents choking. Now tie
the end of the rope to the ring and you
are ready.
Bunch the horses by throwing out
some feed in large yard. Have an
assistant hold one end of the rope.
By moving carefully, you can soon
moose the colt. Let him circle around
until well tired out, before going up to
his head. AS soon as possible, take
two half bitches, as shown in the left
hand figure, around his nose; take the
bend of the lower hitch, pass it under

They had Board of Trade banquet at Forest
Grove, the 22nd of February and on the pro-
gram occurs the following sentence: ''Out of con-
sderation for the day it is hoped that the orators

who wrote that knew that the orators had too high
regard for truth to waste it ordinary occasions
1t is conceded bv of best judgment in this
section of the state that the action of Secretary
Hitchcock in the matter of the retention of J. 7.
Bridges and ]. H. Booth, as register and receiver
of the Roseburg land office has been governed
chiefly by prejudice. The Oregon delegation has
had long interview with the President, and the
action of the Secretary of the Interior has been set
aside. This relieves this section of Oregon from
the cloud of land fraud that has been held over it
by the Interior Department. We glad to note
that the two officers are to be retained, and that
their ad ministraton of affairs has been vindcated.
The situation in the National Democratic camp
is narrowing down to the ''man who can certainly
carry New York state" Murphy of Tammany,
does not choose to in truct for Judge Parker, and
that narrows the availables down to two, Nc Cle-
Ian and Hearst. Hearst's only chance lies in his
endorsement by Tammany. The Republicans
can win without New York; for the Democrats to
win without New York is utterly impossible. There
fore Murphy holds the key to the situatioa and in
his ability to control uninstructed delegation
and stampede the convention for his candidate
at the proper time he hopes to find the hoped for
opportunity for rich pickings for himself and his

There is probably no greater fallacy in our
government than much lau6ed idea of
partisanship in municipal politics. Notwithstand-
ing the long record of failures such policy has
yearly shown, it bobs up at each election as regu-
larls as the election comes round
"A political party that is not willing to stand
its own feet, to fight for its principles to
the last ditch, is not worthy of the name" Where
elections conducted a bipartisan basis
the government cannot hope to become anything
but corrupt in management. 1t is conceded that
the application of the principle leads to laxty Of
public spirit, and lack of interest in all municipal
affairs Nothing entlluses the people of city or
county so much as a sharp, spirited contest be-
tween opposing elements, where public spirit
patriotism and party loyalty run rampant To
make public officer loyal to his county, he must
be held responsible to his party for his action while
in that office. There is no other course.
The time for action on his matter has come in
Benton county. There should be but two parties
in the field. \ party stands tor certain principles
and the man nominated by that party stands for
those principles If the voter thinks the candidate
of the opposing party is going to stutify himself
and act in his Office in opposition to the principles
of the party who nominated him, just because he
is good fellow" he makes the mistake Of his
life.
If democrat votes for republican candidate
he has no right to claim afiIiation with his own
party. Psrty loyalty party responsibility.
