Eh-ep husbandry is of a twofold charac
ter. The marager of a flock mv.f.t not
alone know what lo do, but when to do
it. i'irc-tof all, have vonr mind made
up as to w hat particular phase of the in
dustry you propose to contiiie your f
forts. Iii reaching this conclusion one
win need to take into account the amount
of capital invested, the kind and num
ber of sheep lie will begin w ith. and the
limits to which capital and surroundings
circumscribe him. If theownerof land,
one can "take chances" from which the
mere leaseholder is liarred. A large j-ro-jiortion
of the failures among men mak
ing slieep husbandry their leading busi
ness hare resulted from indebtedness in
curred for sheep and kinds w ith the ex
pectation that profits would soon wipe
out both principal and interest.
When once the mind is made up as to
the kind and number of the sheep
stick. Don't let the report that some
other man or some other place is work
ing wonders with some other kind of
sheep divert you from the road you
have marked out. When you buy a
sheep for breeding puqioees be sure that
it is better than the lcst of your own
flock in blood and physical dcycloji
ment: and w hen you have bought it see
that it is cared for like any other vulu
able piece of property.
Take o!f the wool as soon as the
weather seems settled and warm enough
to admit of it with safety to the sheep,
nid pnt the fleeces in order that the buyer
will readily give you the top price for
wools of similar grade. liroed so as to
have every lamb an improvement upon
the average standard of the fl.ick, and
sell as soon as they can be made ready
nil that come below such standard.
When the time comes for si lling ani
mals of any age do the .electing your

Do not l tvtnpted into keeping more
sheep than you have first class arrange
ments for keeping food and other ac
commodations. Do not keep different
breed of sheep together. The condi

their highest possible results. Do not
dejieud on tarn's, or anything outside of
your own individual judgment and en

Ar exchange descries the cabbage
eed industry on Long Island in this
manner:
Contracts for the seed are made in ad
vance with seedsmen or their representa
tives, stipulating the variety to be grown
and the price to lie paid for the seed.
Seed for the plants is sown alwut tlie
2'Hh of June, and they aim to set out
the plants between Aug. 1 and 1(1. They
are set in row s three feet apart, aliout
10.001) to the acre. For this purpose the
grower aims to have the cabbage grow a
small, soft head, not sullicicnlly grown
for table use.
About the first of NovenilsT. Ix-fore
freezing weather, the cabbage is taken
up by the roots and prepared for win
tering. To do this, a wide and deep
furrow is opened by plowing both ways
in it. In this the cabbage nre compactly
set. about three abreast, and the earth
thrown against them witlj the plow,
covering them as nearly us possible.
The work is finished by hand witli the
shovel. To winter them well is not al
ways an easy task, but the farmers suc
ceed very well as a rale. As soon as the
ground can be worked in the spring the
cnbliage are taken out of the trenches
and set out. alxmt two and one-half by
four fii;t, according to variety. To fa
cilitate the exit of the seed stalk, the
head of the cabbage is generally gashed
with a knife.
About the COth of July the seed is
ready for harvesting. The seinl stalk is
cut off and allow ed lo lie iijxm the ground
for a few days liefore it is drawn in.
The shelving of the wagon is lined with
canvas to prevent wasting of seetl, very
much of which is shelled out in the pro
cess of loading. It is then taken to the
barn floor, where a slight fla-Iiag finishes
the work, and the seed is cleaned with a
common fanning mill. The crop varies
largely, running Is'tween 1-10 and fcdK)
jKiunds to the acre as extremes, and the
farmers realize from 40 to CO cents ier
pound. It is estimated that almut ?(J0.
0.K) pounds are annually raised in this
part of Long Island.

INFLUENCE OF TREE BOXES. I
r,trj Often Civ MiHtw to Parasite That
o Great Dainnc
However necessary it may !e la cities
to protect trees by uiear.s of tree boxes
-igLiint bodily in jury, cluefly committed
i,r mischievous" boys r.nd loafers, such
protection should only bo afforded for a
limited time, or long enough for tho
-rowing tree to artrin a sufheient tliick
t.css to prevent it. iicing broken by any
nrdinarv r.ocidt'tit. says Professor C. V.
IliUy. After such a liiickr.;.-s has lieen
reach! the tx.xes ought to Ik discarded.
They are unnatural and lt.h injurious
to the tree und t:tip!en--::rt to the eye. A
tr;'at number or trees are forever injured
by s-icli boxes, aad the great increase of
"mie kinds of insects is solely one to
tiu-m.
For instance, the maple bark borer
Trochilium acerni) is almost solely con
hned to the injured bark of maple tree
protected by boxes, and is scarcely ever
found in normally growing trees. Such
tree boxes furnish good shelter for the
formation of cocoon and afford winter
quarters for many noxious insect. The
web worm makes excellent use of thein.
A small Isn elder, wish a trunk of about
four inches in diameter a tree strong
enough to thrive without protection
had leen inclosed by the usual form of a
wooden tree box. This was removed,
and the inside of the Ixjx and the col
lected rubbish in it was carefully inves
tigated by one of our assistants. Mr.
Otto Lugger. This is the result: 74 co
coons of II. cunea: 43 egg masses of
Orggia leucostigma; 4 cocoons of Acro
nycta Americana, and I pupa of Datana
ru hie undo, besides innumerable old and
empty pupal skins of these and other
insects.
it is to be added in this connection
that this tree grew in a par in Balti
more, and was not as badly infested as
trees in Washington. A young tree in a
tree Imu ought to be firmly fastened at
the top to nil sides of the bos., and this
by means of flexible bands, to be re
newed from time lo time. In this man
ner n high wind would lie prevented
from producing any friction of the trunk
or branches against the edges of the Ikjx.
After tlie tree attains a siie of two
inches in diameter the tree (mix ought to
be removed, and the members of the
citv poiice should lie instructed to pay
ef-pecial attention to their further neces
sii'v protection.
The shelter afforded by the wooden
tree boxes is. iu my judgment, the prime
reason why the web worm has become
such a great nuisance in Washington.
They should either lie discarded entirely
after the trees have attained a trunk di
ameter of four inches, and heavy penal
ties enacted lor hitching horses or for iu
any way cutting or defacing the trunk;
or.hat would ierluips be safer, and
certainly very much loss objectionable,
they should lie replaced as soon as possi
ble by round iron ones like those now in
Use on Fifteenth street, between New
York aver.. le and K street. These will
afford less shelter for cocoons, and are
in every way less objectionable.
Tlio Wtilto iru: Worm.
Professor W. A. Henry, of the Wis
consin Agricultural college, answers an
iaipiiry as to a way of ridding fields of
white grub worms as follow s, through
The Farmers' Kcview:
The w lute grub is the larval form of
the brow nish Ix-ello. commonly known
as the May beetle, which often comes
into our houses summer evenings at
tracted by the lamp liht. The grub re
quires three years to mature and develop
into the beetle. When small they at
tract little or no attention, and only
when approaching maturity do we ob
serve them and their ill effects. After
going over the subjt-t pretty thoroughly
and reading ukhi the different proiosed
remedies, it must lie confessed that there
is no simple, easy way of disposing of
the w hite ;;rub.
This grub appears very irregularly,
often ruining the crop on one field and
not touching that on the adjoining one,
and disapjiears us suddenly as it came
without apparent cause. This irregu
larity lies at the bottom of most of the
remedies. 1 think. A farmer applies a
certain supjxisej remedy und no grubs
ap;icur, while in the next field or on a
neighbor's farm the grub is bad. He at
tributes his immunity lo the remedy, and
announces the result lo the world. Per
haps the grubs would not have done any
damage if the reined v had not been ap
pliid. Probably the most practical way of re
ducing the uumlicrs is by fall plowing,
and frequently stirring the soil liefore
planting, so as to expose all of the gruli
possible to be picked up by the bird3,
gopher and their other natural enemies.
Such cultivation should not be charged
entirely to the grub, for the soil may be
greatly improved by it. In France,
where this ttrub is often very !ad, eas
ants check its ravages somewhat by care
fully collecting and destroying the beetles
found feeding on trees and tlirtlbs. there
by preventing eggs licing laid. This is
hardly practicable in America.

It is a difficult matter to fatten lambs
the first wititer. says The American Agri
culturist. As a rule, the only way it
can be done profitably is to commence
to feed the lambs, the earlier the lictler,
before they are weaned, and continue lo
feed them grain or cake w hilc running
on gmxl grass in the summer and au
tumn. Professor Koberts. of Cornell
university, says that late and inferior
lambs can usually lie purchased in the
latter (itut of September for from 1 to
i'l. .10 per head, and thct if properly fed
and cared for there is a nice profit lo lie
made from them. We do this. F.fr
more profit will made if lxughi at
the same price per pound, live weight,
from gxjd. strong, almost fat lani'ostiian
from inferior lambs In fact, we would
lather pay live cents a pound for a Rood
lamb weighing eighty pounds than thn-e
certs a pound (if obliged to try to fatten
him in winter) for an inferior lamb
weighing forty pounds

Know Something.
Dr. Holmes ys a well eductt-f I man
is one who knows "everything about
something d1 sotnethini; about every
thing." The i?e dot tor uoes well to
put this in theenkr ha docs; for the
man who begins t one thiei? and le tu-ns
all about it before he triis to master
nytirng else, is the roan "of jer and
ronsequenre in this world, hi!e the one
who dabKea a little hit in everything
pets left far behin I in the rare. Mr. Bur
dette pats the i lea very neatly in the
following pHrdjjr.'iph :
" Mr. Vanderbilt pays his cook $10,000
a year, my boy, li'u.li is a great deal
wore than you and I earn, or at least it
13 a (treat ileal mire than we get, because
he is a cook. That is all. rresuinahly
beciune ho an cook lietter than any oth
er in in in Americ a Tast is all. If Man-.
Saueeingravi could emik tolerab'y well
an I shoot a little, and speak three Ian-j
guaes tolerably well," and keep books
fairly, and sing some and could preach a
fair sort of a wraion, an I knew some
thing about horses, an 1 could telegraph
a little, and could do lijt'.it porter's work
and could read proof tolerably, could do
plain house and sign painting, and could
help on a thrashing machine, and knew
enough law tojiractica io the justices'
courts of Kickapoo township, and had
once run for the legislature, and knew
how to weigh hay, he wonldn't get $10,-
000 a year for it. He gets that just be
cause he knows bow to cook, and it
wouldn't make a cent's difference in his
salary if be thought the earth was fl it,
and it went around iU orbit on wheels.
There is nothing like knowing your busi
ness clear through, my boy, whether
you know anything else or not,"
Zacharias Did It.
Old Zack (-huflled forward as his name
was railed, closely followed by the officer
who had rapturetl him in one of hw noc
turnal ch'cken-Ktealing expeditions. He
held his catakin rap tightly under his
arm, rubbing his, woolly head thought
fully with his disengaged hand.
" Well, prisoner, what is your name ?"
" Zacharias Tobias."
"What?"
" Zaebarias Tobias."
"Are you sure it is not Ananias?"
" I ain't sure ob nuflin', yer honor ; but
I Vpects it'll be IVnnis fo' I gets out ob
yere."
" Well, Dennis I fhould say Ananias
you were found in Deacon Smith's
chicken coop this morning at 3 o'clock,
I believe."
"Quarter pas (hrec, yer honor."
" Wei!, then, 3:1"), lo be more exact. I
suppose you went there to read poetry."
"Sar?"
" Did you go there to read p letry ?,'
" Kat poultry ? No, par ; don't want
no raw poultry 'bout dis nggah. IXm't
eat poultrytiIl it's done cooked." ,
" Well, Dennis, I am afraid your poul
try will be cooked this time your goose
at least. Do you think you can get it
done in thirty days?"
" It s pretty tough, yer honor "
" Well, then, make it sixty days, so as
to be on the safe side."
And as old Zrck moved away, he mur
mured softly: " Dun fixed it dis time ;
tioun' to git three stpur meals a day
for the next two months, sho'." Jerri
Sii iiig.
Interested People.
Advertising a p itent meditrins in the pe
ruliar way in which the proprietor of Kemp's
Balaam, for Coughs and Colds does it is -n-deed
wonderful. He auihorixea all druggists
lo give those who b!l for it a sample bottle
free, that they may try it before purchasing.
The large bottles are SO cents and fl. We
certainly would advise a trial. It mav save
you from consonmption.
A vrriter in a scientiflc magazine ays
the earth is being bnre I too much and ia

The busy editor can sympathize with

language he uses when Ihe bore leaves.

"Why notr
" I never lent yoa any money, bo I
don't know whether you would pay me
cr not.-
" Well, treat Scott ! wn't it worth five
dollars to find out what kind of a man I
am? I might strike you fur a hundred
ooine day."
A Good Looking Face.
We like to see. Yet Krysipelas dir
fi Eii res the features and tho diwase ia as
dangerous as it is repulmve. It is pome
times called "SU Anthony's Fire," and
often ends in wt.lden death. S. B. Car
penter, (Jrandx ille, N. had it in lioth
legs, and was cured by lr. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Iiemedy, of Ildndout K.
Y. This medicine excels all oth'Ti for
the blood.
The French railw-ays during the six
months of the Exposition earned $t".
COO.tTOO over their earnings during the
corresponding period of the previous
vear.
Does Experience Count?
It does, in every line of business, and es
pecially in compounding and prrparir
medicines. This in illustrated in the
great superiority of Hood's Sarsaparilla
over other prearattons, as shown by the
remarkable cures it has accomplised.
The head of the firm of C. I. Hood &
Co. is'a thoroughly competent and ex
perienced pharmacist, having devoted his
whole life to the study and actual prep
aration of medicines. He is also a tuem
br of the MassarhnsvttB and American
Pharmaceutical Associations, and cenfin
uincs actively devoted to snpcrvkeng tip
preparation of and mansging the busi
ness concerned with, Hood's Sarsajiaril
la.
Hence the superiority and peculiar mer
it of Hood's Sarsaparilla is built tijion the
most substantial foundation. In its prep
aration there is represented all the know 1
edge which modern research in medical
Science has developed, combined with
long experience, brain work, and experi
ment. It is only necesrary to give this
medicine a fair trial to reali;e its giea!
curative value.
It threatens your kidneys. Let it go
on a little while and you will suffer much
more keenly, throughout the entire sys
tem. Take at once Dr. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy, of Rondout, N.'
Y., which is the most effective medicine
known for the treatment of all diseases
of the Kidneys and Liver, and for Mala
ria, as well an the purification of the
blood.
