The Nursing Period.
From the Michigan Farmer.

The flock-owner who is anxious to
see his young lambs make good
growth during the nursing period
give special attention to feeding
the ewes to produce an abundant
flow of milk. During the first few
weeks of the lambs life its growth
and development depends upon the
amount of nourishment obtained
from the mother. If the supply is
somewhat limited it is self-apparent
that the natural growth of the lamb
will be checked, not only while
nursing, but also during the later
stages of life. If the ewes are to
milk well they must receive suitable
food and care.
It would be difficult to estimate
the annual loss encountered by
flock in not giving their
ewes proper feed and attention
during the eardly summer months
while nursing their growing progeny.
In the fall of the year, when the
lamb crop rounded up to be placed
upon the market, they are always
found few lambs that are common
ly termed "tail-enders." These
lambs, while they may not appear of
much Importance are in reality the
ones that materially curtail the prof
its on the lamb crop. Late lambs
cannot be expected to make as large
growth as, those dropped earlier in
the season however, there is no rea-
son why they should not be just as
good in quality possibly a little light
er in weight, as the early lambs.
The fock-owner who breeds his
ewes to lambs the latter part of April
or early in May must give some at
tention to feeding his ewes to pro-
duce milk flow the same as if the
lambs came early in the season.
Pastures often suffer from early
summer drought and by the time late
lambs begin grazing the pasture has
lost its palatability to some extent,
and unless attention is paid to keep
ing up strong milk flow until the
young lambs are old enough to hustle
for themselves their growth will be-
come decidedly impaired.
There are two means within the
reach Of the fock-owner to maintain
good flow of milk from his ewes
during the nursing period. The
feeding of light grain ration will
aid materially in producing good
milk flow, when used in connection
with good pasture. But the sowing
of green forage crops at different per-
iods of the growing season to come to
maturity when needed for supple
mentary pasture is one of the very
best and most economical means of
producing a strong flow OF nutritious
milk for nursing the lambs during
the summer season. There are
number OF forage and combination
crops that can be sown for this pur-
pose, and no flock-owner need permit
the summer to pass without having

Methodists Cheer Church Union.

The general conference of the Meth
odist Protestant church in session at
Pittsburg cheered enthusiastically the
committee from the Methodist Episco-
pal general conference at Baltimore in
viting a return of the Protestants to
the mother church" on their own
terms, as Senator Dolliver put it in
his address. On the same day the
Methodist Protestants received over
lures for union from the Congrega-
tional and United Brethren churches.
Methodist EpiscopeI Conference.
Another week OF the general confer
ence Of the Methodist Episcopal church
began with the excursion of the dele
gates from Baltimore to Washington
to meet on the grounds of the Ameri-
can university and listen to plain
talk by President Roosevelt. He spoke
in high praise of the pioneer work Of
the Methodists and repeated his SER
mon on the need of individual charac-
ter rather than laws to save the repub-
lie.
The committee on the episcopacy di-
vided on the number Of bishops to be
elected. majority favoring ten and Il
minority wanting only seven. A COM
promise on eight was effected.
The committee on the state of the
church voted three to one in favor OF
leaving the ban on amusements un-
changed.
The committee on federation report
ed against organic union with the
Methodist Church South. but for n nom
legislative council and to allow any
church to unite with one of the other
branch where both touched the same
territory. A conference with the Unit.
ed Brethren and the Evangelical asso-
citation was proposed. Word was also
to be sent to the negro branches of
Methodism that the mother church was
ready to consider union with them.

SENT BOMB TO GOVERNOR.
New Jerseys Governor Has a Narrow
Escape

Seagirt, N. j., Sept. 14.-An attempt
to assassinate Governor Fort of New
Jersey has been thwarted by the watch
fitness of postoffice employees, who dis
covered in the mails an internal ma
chine addressed to the governor.
The package was a cleverly con-
trived combination of powder, bullets
and matches, which had been so ar
ranged that had the governor opened
it in the ordinary way there is little
doubt it would have killed him..
That the death-dealing package was
intercepted before it had reached it's
destination was due to the vigilance of
the postal officials, who have scanned
the governor IS mail with unusual care
since the executive s recent crusade
against violation of the law at Atlantic
City.
The attitude taken by the governor,
when he directed that the excise and
other laws at the seaside resort be
strictly enforced, and even threatened
to order out the militia if necessary,
aroused resentment in some quarters.
To guard the governor as much as pos
slble from any annoyance arising from
that affair, unusual watch was put
on his mail.
Several days ago when a package of
some unusual shape was found to bear
insufficient postage it was taken by
clerk to an inspector. The inspec-
tor became more impressed by the
shape and condition of the package
than by the shortage of stamps, and
at once wrote the governor, informing
him that a package of suspicious APP
pearance addressed to him was being
held at the office. The inspector asked
for permission to open it without for
warding it to its destination The per-
mission was given at once.
Exercising the greatest care, the in
spector and his assistants removed the
wrappings from the package, to find
that their worst fears were confirmed.
1t was a real internal machine, crude,
but so cleverly constructed that it was
capable of doing tremendous damage.
1t contained a quantity of powder and
bullets, with matches so arranged that
hurried opening of the package
would have set off the powder and
hurled the bullets in all directions,
