Alfalfa and sheep.

The Sentinel man enjoyed ride
across the country Saturday with Mr.
Fred Perkins. The latter is one of the
few farmers in this vicinity who has
pinned his faith in sheep for the past
few years The first wool he sold nine
years ago brought him seven cents
a pound but last week he sold n load
for twenty-nine cents bringing him in
all $3.50. There has been a good and
increasing demand for mutton the past
few years and there Is u shortage OF
sheep in the country this year, so the
prospect Is most excellent for the far
mer who has plenty of sheep. Mr.
Perkins says that most any farmer
with 100 acres of land can keep fifty
or sixty sheep and hardly miss the
feed they require. BY the way. how
many know that u sheep can go all
summer without drinking? Mr.. Per-
kins is now experimenting with alfalfa.
or perhaps we should say he has prov
en- 1t a success for this locality. He
regards 1t as superior to any other hay
Hogs and poultry will eat ii as well as
cattle, horses and sheep, and IT has
superior fatteninE qualities. Mr. Per-
kins cut his alfalfa once this season
and got one and one-half tons per acre
and 1t Is about ready for the second
cutting. 1t will be cut four times this
year and will probably make four tons
per acre. Where Is the crop that can
beat that?

GOLDFISH IN JAPAN.
The Demand For Them Appears ia
Be Almost without Limit.


Although the goldfish occurs in a
wild state in Japan, it is probable that
China some 400 years ago furnished
the stock from which the wonderful
varieties Of japanese goldfish have
been bred. 1t is reported that in feudal
days, even when famine was abroad in
the land and many people were starv-
ing. the trade In goldfish was flourish
ing.
The demand at present appears to be
without limit, aud the output shows a
substantial increase each year. Many
thousand psSpie Make living by grow
ing goldt1sh for market, and hundreds
Of peddlers carry the fish through the
streets and Rlonk the country roads in
wooden t1bt suspended from shout
der bar.
The leading goldfish center is Kori-
yama. near the ancient capital Of Nara.
Here are $50 Independent breeding es-
Establishments, whose yearly product
runs far into the millions. One farm
which I visited was started 40 years
ago. At FIRST 1t was conducted merely
for the pleasure of the owner, but it
eventually became commercial enter
prise and Is now very proftable.-Na-

$780, The cows entered for the contest
may be fed and handled at the option
Of the owner, except no condiments.

vide that only water may be given the
COWS to drink and that they shall not
be MIXED more than three times dur

or by rating butter fat at twenty-five
cents per pound and by-products at

4 Problem That Seems Simple, mus
That VIII Invite DiscusSiOn.
How much greater than threefourths
Is four-fourths?
At first sight it seems an easy Ques-
ton, but put 1t to your arithmetica!
friends and you will probably find that
It will divide them into two parties.
one contendinE that the answer Is one
fourth and the other as ~ oily ar.
nrming that it is one-thjr, = both
will be ready to prove the accuracy OF
their respective solutions.
The party OF the first part Ito use n
legal phrase) may argue their point In
this way:
Five shillings Is the fourth part of q
pound. If you have Is shillings, or
three-fourths of a pound, and some
body gives you another fourth part you
have sovereign-ergo, your four"
fourths is one-fourth greater than
three fourths.
But this will not suit the other party
ut all, and they will proceed scornfully
to point out that the argument is all
wrong, since il you have Is shillings
ana somebody is generous enough to
add 5 shillings to it the donor is oD-
" giving you one third Of the amount
you already possess u times 3 equals
49,, therefore your sovereign is only
one-third more than your Is shillings.
1t is pretty problem, and expert
accountants have been known to wran-
gle over 1t for hours.--Iondon Answers,

Bio Run Of Horses.

THE record for the first half OF the
current year shows 10.070 gain In the
receipts over the corresponding perloo
last wear. June arrival totalled SLAB,
against 6.544 for the same month last
season, making gain of 1889 for the
first summer month over 1904. "A re-
markoble feature of the trade mas peeh
the enormous increase In local con-
sumption Of all classes Of commercial
offerings, the total city trade for the
first half Of the current year aggrega-
ting 10202 head, against 5,091 for the
same period last year. making the 10
cal consumptive increase total Gill
for six months. Demand from all
quarters has been highly satisfactory
for the week and all have found fair
outlet at the June decline of 5000.
Trade has reached the normal dull
season, when orders are light from all
sources and prices nominally station
airy at the lowest level Of the year.
While not of the urgent character of
the spring trade the demand for
drafters is Of ample proportions to
clear the offerings at s165@215 for
good to choice grades, with common
kinds weak at $135M165 and upward.
Eastern chunks and wagon horses
were moderately active at $110@140.
Drivers found fair outlet at $145@365.
many offerings changing hands at
$20O0S25 principally to professional
dealers. A moderately active summer
demand has dominated the market for
the week and the receipts have been
cleared at fair sumner prices.

COMPLAINT FROM NORTH END.
mr.. salley Giyes His Views on Street
Car Service Situation.
Saturday, Dec. 80. 1905.

''' 'S- S'SNS IT'S ''-fsS |ts Ok CO
Car Service Situation.
Saturday, Dec. 80, 1905.
Editor Daily Press-Referring to
the article published in your paper of
this date, in regard to matter of street
car service for residents OF this city
living In North Emo, i would Like to
explain just what Inconvenience
these people are daily put to.
from the article published, 1t ap-
pears to be the desire OF the street
car company to obviate the delays
that the two cars running between the
G. & o. depot and Fifty-lifth street,
are subjected to, owing to the shifting
of cars. at the shipyard bridge. These
delays are quite annoying, and the
North End residents would be very
glad TO have it discontinued, but the
chief Inconvenience is caused from
failure of the main line cars from
Hampton, the Chestnut avenue car
from Eapl End, and the Ivy avenue
car, to Il AXE connection with the G.
6 o. cars for North End. l do not
think it exaggerating to state that
eight out OF ten times North End pas
sengers coming in on the main line
car from Hampton are compelled to
wait at the shipyard bridge anywhere
from five to fifteen minutes for a car
or walk to their homes. This is not
very pleasant, especially in bad wealth
