AMERICANS CONSIDERED EASY
English shopkeepers Have Learned TO
Boost Prices During SUM
mer Season.

LONDON. Sept. H.-(Special) with the
exodus OF the American tourists from Lon
don. the prices in the various stores that
cater to their wants are beginning to fall.
1t may not be generally known, but It is
nevertheless fact, that with the inrush OF
the American visitors to the British
metropolis prices are watered to an extent
that would make an up-to-date American
trust magnate blush. and with their de-
parture the bottom drops out, so to speak
and the price marks once more assume
normal face.
There was a time, not many years ago
when the average American could come to
London and fool himself into believing that
he was saving the cost of his passage on
his purchases. Three or four suits dozen
pairs OF gloves and dozen neckties were
packed away in a trunk marked mot
wanted on voyage" and he was the proud
and happy possessor OF a wardrobe that
he was sure could not be duplicated for
twice the money in his home land
But all that has been changed There
was time when a good suit could be OBJ
talned in London for Sl5 Today. during
the American season, the same suit is
ticketed so and unblushingly offered to
the easy opea-handed American tourist
now priced 60 cents and kid gloves, al
though still cheaper than i'm the United
States, always advance so per cent during
the late summer, when the "Rubes" from
the other side are here in full force.
The American has himself to blame for
the fact that prices go up as soon as the
papers announce that the rush for England
has begun in the United States. In past
years. and even today, the American tour
lists and especially the womenfolks find Il
impossible to make a purchase in London
shops without making an audible remark
about its cheapness.
why, these gloves would cost me three
times as much in New York" she exclaims,
intent upon impresslng her nationality upon
the shopkeeper. who. by the way, was per-
fectly aware of II from the time she dark
ened the doorway of his store. These oft
repeated remarks have had the natural
effect upon the English storekeeper and
Americans act upon London prices like
clear weather on a barometer.

Selecting Sheep
For Breeding

When selecting sheep for breeding
the precise object for which the selec-
ton is made is all important with him
who selects, writes Professor Thomas
Shaw in American Agriculturist. The
breeder Of pure breds must give due
consideration to purity of breeding as
well as to individuality. In selecting
breeding ewes good average size should
be sought.
A female somewhat long in body and
even almost bordering on the up
standing type is to be preferred to one
that is chunk in makeup. The de-
gree to which such form should be
sought will be qualified by breed.
Some breeds are naturally less rangy
than others. The eve that is a chunk
is less likely to breed than one with a
good, long barrel. She is also less like
ly to be prolific and likewise a good
mixer.
When selecting a good breeding eve
look first to size and symmetry; second,
to capacity in barrel; third, to refine
ment in form, and, fourth, to the char
acter of the fleece. Size has already
been dwelt upon. Symmetry means
due correspondence between the diff
ferent parts in their development. The
body inclining to long should be asso-
clated with neck inclining to long, and
so Of all the various parts. Within that
capacious body is ample room for the
processes of generation. The evidences
of refined form are to be sought for,
particularly in head neat, clean cut
and inclining to long, in a neck inclin-
ing to long, or at least medium for the
breed, and In limbs fine, but straight
and we'll placed. The fleece should
be long and fine for the breed, strong
In the fiber, bright in luster and of even
length and density over the body.
These essentials should be sought for
in greater or less degree among all
breeds.
The first requisite to look for in the
ram is good individuality. This means,
first, compact form and symmetrical;
second, a good wide level back; third,
evidences of strong vigor, as shown in
a massive breast, proud carriage of
the neck, an easy and active movement
and an Observant eye, and, fourth,
wool characteristics in the ewes.

DOOM FOR DERELICTS.

to the new destroyer must be done by
the revenue cutters, which are neither
built nor equipped for such service.
When No. II is launched she will in all
probability get a name, for one can
hardly imagine a successful launching
without naming, and neither the sec
rotary of the treasury nor the chief
of the revenue cutter service would
wish to humiliate the new ship by
sending her out among her sister ships
with no more idea of typifying title
than that which is given a convict in
the penitentiary or a brick house in a
row.
AS the new destroyer is to be unique
in many ways, she will also be assign
ed to the other cutters in the service.
She will have steaming radius of
1000 miles without stopping to coal,
will be provisioned for much longer
cruises than she will ever be likely
to make, and will be equipped with
