The government is ct the present en-
gagged In importing into this country
various already domesticated animals
which seem likely TO prove useful. Thus.
for example, a woolless variety OF sheep.
whose mutton is OF a superior quality,
has been fetched from Barbados, and
several kinds Of mich goats and milch
sheep have been brought from Europe.
But work OF this kind has TO be carried
on with utmost precautions, in order 10
avoid the incidental introduction OF dis
eases.
A number OF very desirable mich goats
were imported not long ago from the
island OF Malta, but IL was discovered
while they were still in quarantine that
they were infected with the dreaded
Malta fever a malady due 10 n germ.
'and which Is often fatal 10 human be-
ings. Consequently all OF them were
killed, and the department OF agricul-
ture now recommends that milch goats

abroad in future shall be OF the Tog-

milk givers. their yield being enormous
relatively to the size of the animal, and

The plan, not altogether novel in its
central features, yet truly astounding
in the imposing magnitude contem-
plated, proposes that every family in
the United States snail utilize the spare
ground attached to its dwelling for the
raising of the vegetables used on the
home table. it is obviously impossible
TO shut ones eyes TO the fact that there
are many thousands, perhaps millions
Of families, who. living in city localities

But. as DR.. Knapp observes, the same
recourse awaits those 'tshut-ins' as

outside Of the cities, and the same re
suits can be secured, if at the expense
of a little greater trouble.

Knapp looks 10 the organization of the
home garden system through that ia
