Baker, scarched wid their money taken from them by this firm. Tho charee is of defrauding the soldicrs, and 1 know of no grosser fraud than stenling their money from their pockets. Ex-Judge Staari—This case is a case to be decided on legal evidenos in a legsl maoner. The ouly qaestion is whether the prisoner has received any bounty justly due Reilly, and whet! er hie bas refused to give it up after being asked for it.

Doxaoa, Union Co., TR The difference between knowing how and not knowing how 16 very groat. To succeed, one must lears his business. The reason why farmers meet with so many losses is be- cause they act as bosses when they sré fit ouly to ke apprentices. Even when they well-informed, they must consider every variation i’ the seasons, in the soil, and the effects of these ou erops and stock. I went to one large sheep farm where the master hee heen engaged in the business from his youth; he bas every- thing convenient and a8 it should be; if any one is posted itis he. Dunog the Winter and Spring he has lost 208 out of 600 1ast year's lambe, and he told me the gosses why. Last sesson was very wet, the gras: was sbundesd Dbut it was watery and had little heart. In December theg Legan to die, He said if he had commenced feeding them corn in September and October ho would have saved them. 1 went to another sheep farm equally large, whero there were about the same number of lambs, sud which wese saved. The master fed corn early in the fall, m«xo ways does, He wants bis lambs 10 learn to eat be- fore Winter sets in. 1 know of no other Western shoep man who places so much dependence on corn. His ruls is to feed all of his sheep odrn while there is yet grass, and te give them all they will eat during the Winter. Ho has slso plenty of good timothy, sud for the ewes oats in the bundle. The coru always is fed in the stalk, which is cut and put into stooks made from fourteen bills withoul tying. While his losses are light bis average of wool is very high, and it has inereased for several years, He, tos, is we!l posted. Perhaps no one is more carcful. And yot, on that cold Janusry night two years ago sowme 1,200 shoop were blown out of & shed under which the wind swept, sal where there were no doors; they were whirled scross » 168 acre prairie field, smashed into corner of the lot, and “ia the morniug only & fow Lundred were alive. Recontly, for & week or 80, 1 had been in Missoun vist- ing several towns, the names of which every ons haa heurdl. I left by the St. Louis and Chicazo Railroad, sad - was surprised to sec towns, the names of which T had scarcely and their suburbs were las than the whole of the Missouri towns. There is no bt but this route is throngh the richest country in the world. It is parallel with the Illigois Kiver. It unites twoof the Inain cities of the West: the farms are besutiful aud well improved; the towns rapidly are growing, and in all of thiewn they are building or preparing to build woolen fise- tories, Lvery farmer is anxious to guit the growiog of in: he wants to raise stock and fruit and to haves home market. The pumber of fruit trees set out thi through the West must exceed 1,000,000, and yet thog have only commenced to plant. . ‘At Springhield I went out to the farm of the President of {he State Agricultural Society, A. B. McConnel. The Jatabs were coming at the rate of 20 or 30 every All had to be bnx. Mr. McConnel and his boys are own shepherds: v‘_un hire nobody who will'be as faith- ful as themselves. They have comfortable sheds, suita- bly divided, and, beside, sheds and sheliers for smell flocks. ‘These arraugements are for the ewes opdy. Sometimes the whole is called the lamb factory. Among 8o many mothers and ofl‘aynn? there were some which did not make any conngetion. 1t required & | quick eye to tell the mother, for latub soon must be | ld or he dies. If the mother is new at the business sha may leave her lamb; or, if she hias a good deal of trouble, she 18 willing to quit evea. Under such circumstances she will look aronnd as if she never had or saw @ lamb. ! There may be two or tures equally innocent or ignoraas. 1t would be a fine thing it one could ask @ question of thoms. | and get an answer. Now, tell me, whick i% your lamb # | All that can be done is to cateh her, hold her between the | knees, and put the lamb's month where i ught to be. | The shepherd will see, first, that there is milk and that it | car. be got at.

This is called u jueket. Mr. Carlle says the Scotch call it a tulchas. W hen she smells this jacket she thinks everything is and after a while she is turned out. Some have 1o be in these pens or jails several days. There i anothos triek the shepherds have, but no matter about i 1t is the rule to make every ewe haviug a lanb raise ome. | The one which loses & lamb bas to take a twin. A ewe is not to raise both twins if it can be avoided. If ewes nad lambs wre left to themselves many lambs will dio. Oue must be on hand to see that the young fellow gets mik from some quarter. A hand should go out with & lauterm lato at night, oreven in the middle of the night, and thea at the break of day. Asdamb is said to be ha!f rused whea he gets his stomach filled. In stormy weather there.ars eat times, Tmagine eight or ten lambs brougiit ioto the | house at once, vrny‘;-d iu costs, yests, pantaloons, patti- coats, shivering with cold, Iying nnder and sround the stove, bieating, getting up ard trying w walk, and ma more in the form of 4 sheep than & carpenter’s saw-horse, and you have some idea of The sheep business, But unless it is too awful cold the place for & lamb is with 3 ewe. I these large flocks it seems as if there was au undno pre- rtion of ewes not willing to do what is expeeted of them. | 1o seo a shepherd take o lamb by the neck or forelegs aad. bring it to 8 ewe which decidedly deciines, look like dis- | regarding tender foelings. But e 1s determined—itit n ary in his business that he not only should have feelings but judgment. As far as possible he must sct the part of a mother. His skill lies in pnd:lng attention.de small things. The life of the lamb depends on his patience, gentleness and perseveranec. While going around and watching the p through the morning, T was reminded of the case of & meorchant’s wife, who in the West was a lady. Hee Lusbaud had gone to New York. She had a new baby, bus she would not nurse it, because she had the novel of Clarissa Hurlowe on hand, which is so long that it takes | two weeks to read it. The head clerk in tho store, learn- ing how things stood, went in and wade Dher take csro of it. Afterward she liked it as much as any novel. | A ‘record is kept of every ewe by means of certain masks, aud if she does mot do well she is sent to the butchee. But sometimes on weaning herlamb in the Fall, the me- ternal fount swells and breaks, and henee she will got & bad name. Good shepherds will look to such mattems; the remedy is to hathe and diminish. Mr. McConnel has s method of marking ewes wil figures, from 1109, in red snd biack paint, on varions parts of each side of the body, which indicate times to come and the nsture of the thing to be. In this 3 much loss and more guessing are svoided. He that goats if kopt with sieep do not breed, but they mark some of the lambs, He stated this asa reason for some black lambs, T should think this one good reason why the | goats should be scparated from the sheep. With othee Wostern sheop-men, he is opposed to having shelterifoe | sheep, and he calls himself an anti-shed man. Mr. Boardman of Logan Connty 1s fortunate in haviag a shepherd from Scotland, on whom he can His name is John Fentor, He gets $300 a_year and board, all of whiclh money is saved, and he is likely to_become @ flock-master himself.
