Among stock-ralsers thore exists the fullest contfi- dence in the management, and this univer- fat feeling of approval spenks volumes for tho ofllcers whose efforts have resulted In finally placing the institution upon 9 firm foundation, There are, however, several Important questions which oughtio be carefully con- sidered by the State Bonrd of Agriculture hefore another show fs held. First, the feasibility of using the Exposiuon Building, because of the impossibility of heuting the Immense structure, should the weather be | severely cold as was the cnsedurlayg the show of 1388, During che recent exhibition the weather was extremely favorable throughout, yet ut this BESO of tho year, this good fortune eannot always be counted upon. Many feeders think that the slow aun tu bu betd nt donat four weeks later than js tho cus- tom. They give ag a reason that the firat or ace- ond week “in November is ‘ourly to elfect Feady and paying snlus of Caristinas beet, a6 buyers who are in search of that kind of stock cunnot afford to hold and feed exttic four weeks: betore they are slauylitered, If tho show Is to become n grand market, us was designed by its originators, there 1a great weight In this propor sition, and the munngoment will doubtless give st profuund constleration, Should they doter- solue to bold the show # month later, it becomes question whethor the weather will not compol them to seck quurters othor than tho Exposition Building. During © gevere coli season it lean Iinposalbility to ent’ that structure, and the comfort of visitura ‘and the stuck to bo exhibited would demand u change. [thas been Bugyested that inorder ty provide against tho weather, und at the suine time to hold tho show At uw tater date, 2 permanent building should be erected, which can be heated to afford com: fortable quarters for the animals, and at the wame timg to insure relative comfort for tho visitors, Certain prominent iive-stock denlers have proposed tocrect auch a building at the Stock-Yarde, guarantcolug to light und beat tt without expense to the board, but this proposl>, tion, githounh generous, dues not incet with ap- proval. Located at tho yards, the oxhibition would not Bttruct the patronuye which would follow wero it established at 2 more central point. Each year the audiances of Chicugo people in no wise directly Interested in llve-stock huve inerensed, and in order to hold this growlux patronige the show mnust be held where the public can have ready acess to it. ‘ Another matter which will doubtless bo well considerod by tho board nt an curly day ts the question of sulectiine Judes at future shows, Gnd tho best mathud of working thom nftor the welections are made, This is a matter upon whleh Sopupds in a yory zreat monsure the suce cess of the show, and although tho board have heretofore excreised overy precaution in select- ing men to make the wwards thoro bas oxisted n feoling in certaln quarters that tho methodsin Practico were not strictly in accord with a splrit of fairness, The board will doubtless bo Holl ped with advice upon the subject, und, belng yeutto- men of ability and judgiient, will be onubled ta originate somo plan by which all exhiblters will ‘be watiaiied, Nothing ig pininer than tho fact that Chiongo peuple for sotne Inoxplicable reason will not pat= ronize thoso exhibitions. Every year tho mun> Qgers have bad to face the unwolvoine fet thot they huve failed to pay oxpenses, until there now exists an negreyute duiicit of over $4,000 to bo met by the bonrd. It therofore becomes apparent that additional attractions must be added to mako the yeurly events self-sustainiog, ‘Tho board contemplates something of thls kind, and fell do ull in thelr power to make the show popular, During the recent show the Western Poultry Club took an active part. and thelr exhibita Wore 8 feature of the week.

Tho present demand for Polled-Angua enttle 1s unquestionndly tha result of their victory at the Paris Exposition of 1878, which has resulted in creating a fushlonable ernze for then on both aides of tho water, ‘The Hon, Samuel J, Dysart, who was the Mlinols representative at Paris, in his report upon. the live-stocic exhibltsat that universal show bays “that the 1,700 entries in all the cattle classes was perhaps the best selection of tho bovine races over gathered together, repre- senting tho beef, dairy, and work cattlein varlous types and generally of superior qual- ity.” Referring to the Volled-Angus or Ab- erdeon cattle, Mr. Dysart suys “that the nume Is of comparatively recent date, and lias bean given to a race of “cattle supposed to have descended from whut wers formerly formed ‘Angus Doddies’ or * Aberdeen Tumuilies” “Tho suceoss of the breed at Paris, Mr. Dysart claims, was not aceldental, as for years they have been attracting notles at the different exhibitions in tholr own country. On this ocerslon the grand prize of honor for foroign cattto was given to the group owned by Willan SeConible, of ‘Tillyfour, Aberdeen, Scotland.

Some months since Prof. George E. Mor- row, Dean of the Faculty of tho Ilinojs Industrial University at Champaign, began Qn experlmont which culminated at the re- cent Chicago Fat-Stuck Show. ‘Tho Profes- soraccured soveral head'of cattle represent ing all the butter known beof-producing fami- lies, and began treating them exactly alike, so far ns food and care were concerned,’ Tits idea was to demonstrate, if possible? which of tho breeds would Iny on flesh the quickest and minke the most desirable showing 1s butchers’ stuck, The enttle were closely watched, and not the slightest variation was made In the feeding.

Cleanliness a Proventive for Hog Dinonnen, During the past season there has beens great deal yaid and written upon the subject of allowing logs to run in pastures. The discusston both in and out of the newspapors has been watched with n great dent of intor- est by hog raisers, whose practieat knowl- edge, acquired by oxperionee, has enabled them long since to form opinions upon the subject. Those men, who havo money in- vested In tho business, aro prone to arrive nt conclusions based upon actual observation from which they fori common-sense {tens of what is beneficial to their stock, aud the wisederes who read: thom long, sulf-conse- quential lectures upon subjects about which they lave no personal knowledge recelvo but Nttle consideration at the hands of breeders, It isa common remark that most anything fs good enough for s hog, and to this senseless proposition Is traced the diseases among awine owned «by breeders who indorse It. Since time timne- mortal the hog has been called the farm senvenger, bit, nevertheless, the successful breeder Is he who relies the least: upon this overestimated characteristic of the aniinal. Bad water, worse treatment in handling, and ft stiperabundance of Hlth are the founda- tlons of all discasea to which hogs are subject, nnd It Is consequentiy casy to believe that the health of tho antionl and the quality of the meat must lucrenso in proportion to tha cleanness of bls food and surroundings. It fa belleved Uthat thore has been teas diautgo ninong swine during tho past year than during any time for tho prat decade, and those who ought to know attribute tho fact to tucruaged care on the part of breeders, who huye renilaed tha vatue of clenniiness. Grass-fed bugs who havo the run of good and nutritiots vastures, with tenty of pure water are tho ones that bring the Pighest peices in any murket.. ‘The suanmer feed of arnes results In bono, muscle, and all the good quatities of first-class pork, nnd a fall feed of vorn just prior to EAN ECOL innkes the plump and round finfah considered so desirable. It ta not tog inuch to say that if swine-raisers would adopt nuniversal plan of cleantiness in raising and feeding their stock, it would be but avery short time before complaints uf American por! would cease to be heard in any Europea coun- try. Dreeders owe it to themselves and thoy owe it to thelr swine to adopt such reforms na witl Insure thom as decent trentmontas possible.

Upon the convening of court yesterday, Sture's-Attornuy Mills, after a fow prolimiuary remarks, called to tha stand DR. J. 8 JEWELI. The first question propounded provoked an ob- jection from Mr, Johnson, and, after a half: hour's legal sparring, Mr. Mills stated to him a hypothotien! cnse, reciting in detail all the facts sworn to during tho trial, and assuming thom to be true, and appiivable to the defendant, asked the Doctor to give bis opinion as a sclontitic Rentlcman as to the condition of the mind of the prisouer at the time of his killing bis wife, his will, and bis Rug wictl es of right and wrong, and rosponslbility moraily. Sr. Jobnsun objected, o 10 Fround that tho caso bud net beon fulrly stated, and bad been too highly colored, aud also on the furthor grouud that the legal, and not tho moral, re- sponsibility should bo considered. Sr, Milly replicd that he hid endeavored to state the case fairly, and fully belleyed ho bad dono ao. Ho maintained that -bo bad not men- toned the tegal responsibility, but oy tho morn, which was the chief clement, “DidI gay loxul?” ho askod sovoral timos of Mr. Johnson, whereupon the latter sald he did uot accuse tho Stato's-Attorney of any unfairness. Ho thon reatuted his objection, but was overruled, Dr. Jowell thon replicd:, “From tho best study I bave been ablo to make of tho facts in tho cage, coinbluing thom with my own personal observation of bls manuer and habit of mind, L have renched tho concluaion that as rewards thiguct, the man was jn such a condition of mind aa to mako him montuily or morally, a8 you may choose to call Jt, responsible at the Uno of the comnission of the act. ‘The Stuto's-Attornoy thon usked “Will you atuto what was tho condition of his mind, In view ofall these facta, at tho timo of the homicide?" “E will stata, thon, that in Ha chun of tho facts na thoy relate to this particeine wot, so far aa [have been able to got at thom, { have found NO EVIDENCE OF DELUSION, no evidence of what is culled inaine impulso, butadellborate act, contemplated in such 4 manner and way as has been often observed in oneea Where doublo suicides havo boon contem- plated.” : Mr. Jobnson, in tho cross-oxamination, asked tho Noctor tho following questions: “May an insane man commit an sot, pnonlog atthe time the dierence betweon right wrong?” “He may.” “Ts molancholy a form of insanity?” “It te, Mi & man be insano and without a dolu- “Ho may,” DR.
