PLAN FOR SHIPPING CATTLE.

PLAN FOR SHIPPING CATTLE.
In shipping by freight, it is generally
necessary for some man to accom-
pany the stock as an attendant, and
then feed, bedding, ETC., is supplied for
the trip, and the attendant is expected
to care for, feed and water the stock.
The animals can be placed in stalls
that are made in the car, or in STAN
chlons which run the length of the
car. These are made by taking two
four or five-inch pieces at top and two
more at bottom, and at regular inter-
walls place an upright which is securely
fastened to these pieces, and also to
the floor and roof of the car; then in
between these pieces or uprights.
place a piece that reaches from floor
just to the top Of the frame, being
pinned at the base so that it will move
enough at the top to allow the ami
mails head to enter the space, then
close the space and put in another pin
at the top to hold il there firmly. The
diagram shows this stanchion. The
animals, of course, stand sideways in
the car, and unless exceptionally large
will have ample room in the ordinary
eight-foot-wide car, and leave a space
In front of the stanchion for feeding.
Hay in small bales can be carried over
the animals by building a sort of a
floor over them. Water can be carried
in barrels near the doorways to be
used in case of necessity or haste.
Where only one of two animals are to
be shipped by freight, suggests the Ru-
raj New Yorker, they can be tied in
the end of the car, or a cheap stall
made. Almost all railways require
the presence of an attendant, and gen.
orally give free fare, at least one way.
and sometimes both ways.

EXPRESSING CATTLE.
How It Should Be Done to Insure the
Greatest Comfort for the
Animals.

Express is always preferable to
freight where the expense is not too
great. Express companies require ami
mails to be Grated, and generally use
a short, light Stat crate for little
calves, with head protruding from the
crate; that is, the body alone is cased.
With older and larger animals | use
a large, strong and heavier crate, full
length Of the animal, with the animals
neck placed in a sort of stanchion
made of two hardwood sticks that run
from floor to top, and are secured at
each end. Feed can then be placed be.
fore the animal, and water will be
given by the express company's people.

THE AMERICAN SHEEP.
Animal Which Is Coming More and
More to Be Matter of Inter
est to Farmer.

The American sheep is coming to
be more and more a matter of interest
to the American farmer. 1t Is doubt
full if in this generation we shall
again see the small interest in sheep
that has been shown during the past
Is years. This lack of interest was
due to the fact that the sheep with
which the farmer found himself Is
years ago was largely a wool-pro-
ducing sheep, and wool was then de-
Ginning at a rapid rate. The demand
for mutton was much less then than
now. In the Is years there has been a
great change In the character OF Amer
lean sheep. They are more largely
suited for the production of mutton
than they were then, and, moreover,
the price of wool is again high enough
to encourage the sheep owner to pro-
duce it.
The city people are demanding a
sheep of higher quality than formerly.
declares the Farmers Review, and can
hardly be satisfied with a sheep that
has been brought up on weeds and
brush. The sheep that is well fed
from birth to the block Is the only
one that produces meat that brings a
good price in the city markets. The
sheep that have been grown on poor
feed and then fattened quickly sell for
a smaller price on the city market, as
their meat is known to be not of the
best quality. The American sheep
may be a pasture cleaner, but 1t must
have good grass also IL it Is to be
profitable.

Biographies .. a stimulus.

We cannot help living in some degree
the lives of heroes who nre constantly
In our minds. Our characters are con-
stantly being modified, shaped and
nodded by the suggestions which are
thus held. The most helpful life sto
ries for the average youth are not the
meteoric ones, the unaccountable ones
the astonishing ones. like those Of Ma.
poleon, Oliver Cromwell and Julius
Caesar. The great stars of the race
dazzle most boys. They admire, but
they do not feel that they can initiate
them. They like to read their lives
but they do not get the helpfulness and
the encouragement from them that
they do from reading the lives of those
who have not startled the world so
much. 1t is the triumph of the Or
binary ability which Is most helpful as
an inspiration and encouragement
The life of Lincoln has been an in
tlnitely greater inspiration to the world
than the life Of Napoleon or that of
Julius Caesar.-O. S. Marden in Sue

because of his large mouth the bull
dog is great purveyor OF disease. es-
peciaily of consumption. clphtheria
and the like. as the dribbling from the
heavy. loose jaws is incessant. Those
who focdle bulldogs do so at a great
risk. He traces many cases OF in

bulldogs are kept as pets. When we
add to this the inyariGhle ferocity Of
the beast. the danger to which children
and other innocent and defenseless
people are exposed whenever he roams
the streets or highways. we have an
argument In favor of his disposal that
cannot be gainsaid. Away with bull

Changes From a Fish to q Bird.
The story Of the early life, transfer
nation and final death Of the Chinese
quail is the most remarkable that In
found in the pathological literature Of
the world. The narrative in all it's I'M
reasonableness is found in the story Of
ON chung. which is the name the Chi.
in the Flowery Kingdom. Celestial au-
thorities on bird lore declare that no
specimen Of ON chung was ever known
to live year; that they do not lay
eggs, as all other known species OF
birds do, and, finally, that their pro-
genitor is Shiny, four jointed worm,
which has a red head and a sting on
the end of its tail. This queer seacoast
worm, according to the curious legend
Of ON chung. lays 100 eggs annually.
Fifty Of these become fish and the 9TH
or fifty are worms Of the same species
as the parent. The fish that has come
into existence In this curious manner
also lays 100 eggs a year. Fifty Of
these become water denizens after the
image Of their parent, and the others
become birds Of the famed ON chung
family. These ON chungs, or Chinese
quails, never breed, and are only
brought into existence as above related.
We give the above not as a literal fact,
but as a specimen of the Chinese idea
Of evolution.

Further, Richmond is blessed by
the presence in it of musician that
is at once earnest, Industrious and en-.

has the music in the public schools
who has drilled the chorus, and who Is
capable of conducting a choral-orches-
ira work, a fact proved last evening
when he won the respect of the mem
bers of the Chicago orchestra, who
have had good reason to be bit Gym.
ical in this respect, after their many
trips over the festival circuit"
The members of the chorus, too.
are unusually faithful and serious. In
Gade's work last evening the chorus
displayed certain discipline and COM
posture, and sang with opulence of tone
and intelligent musicianship"

John Doe Proceedings.

"John Doe" proceedings were abol-
ished by law in Great Britain in 1862.
Previous to that time John Doe had
figured In the old fashioned ejectment
action for the recovery of the posses
sion of land together with damages
for tie wrongful Withholding thereof.
For various reasons of convenience
and history dating from the reign of
Edward III. A did not proceed against
b directly In such a case. Instead A
delivered to B an entirely false state
ment from the fictitious John Doe"
that A had devised the land to "John"
for q term Of years. and John" had
been ousted from it by the equally
fictitious Richard Roe" Then Rich
ard informed B that he was not going
to defend the action himself, but B
must do it, and SO on. Occasionally,
by way Of variety, John Doe" gave
place to one ~Goodtitle."

The Rise In the River.


It is little short OF astonishing to
see how little water is required to float
the southern river steamers, q boat
loaded with perhaps a thousand bales
Of cotton slipping along contentedly
where boy could wade across the
stream. Once, however, the Chatta-
hoochee got too low for even her light
draft commerce. and at Gunboat
shoals a steamer grounded. As the
drinking water on board needed re-
plenishing, deck hand was sent ashore
with a couple of water buckets. Just
at this moment n northern traveller ap-
preached the captain Of tile boat. and
asked him how long he thought they
would have to stay there.
"Oh. only until that man gets back
with bucket Of water to pour into
the river" the captain replied. Pres
emily the deck hand returned. and the
stale water from the cooler was
emptied overheard. Instantly, to the
amazement of the traveller, the boat
began to move.
We'll, if that doesn't beat thunder
he gasped.
The fact was that the boat, touching
the bottom. had acted as a dam, and
there was soon backed up behind her
enough water to lift her o-er the shoai
and send her on down the stream
