Tliou»an<)« of Sheep Feed t pon Mead ows Close to the City—Sale» of the Animal* \ early lacreaiiiig. Twenty-five hundred thousand head of sheep annually feed and fatten at Chicago's western gateway, grazing in meadows fewer than 50 miles from the city limits. The immense grazing grounds over which these producers of wool and mutton roam until they have resched the killing condition are owned for the most part by the big western rail roads. They are of immense value, Iving so close to the boundaries of a big city, and upon wiem are erected expensive plan'E for shearing and dip ping sheep. But the railroads do not complain of the first cost or of the expense of maintenance, for these yards bring to them an immensely valuable traffic and one that is con stantly on the increase. Ten years ago Chicago was a small consumer of mutton. Then sheep were raised for their wool and the carcasses were considered of little val ue. Along came the removal of the high protective tariff on wool and the profits of the sheepraisers dwindled. Their attention was 'hen called to the wool producer as an article of diet, the old-time strains were crossed and changed until America began to pro duce an animal for food purposes the equal of the famous English sheep. American butchers, too, made great strides in the science of slaughter, and Englishmen no longer complain of the quality of the mutton served to them here. The result is apparent in the statistic of the Chicago stockyards, which show that the demand for mut ton in this city has increased dur ing the last ten years 400 per cent. One of the greatest sheep stations in the - vicinity of Chicago is that of the Chicago, Burlington <fc Quincy, at Montgomery. It lies just three miles west of Aurora and 40 miles from the city limits. It is large enougJi to ac commodate 50.000 sheep at one time. In the shearing shop are 20 machines, capable of clipping 2,100 sheep each day. In this big shearing pen the wind lit erally is "tempered to the ihorn lamb," for artificial heat is provided and so regulaUc. that the animals just deprived of their heavy coats may not suffer on account of the change. Shear ing goes on here in the coldest months of the year as during midsum mer, the animals being confined with in the heated sheds until they have gotten used to the loss of their coats. They are transferred from time to time to sheds having lower tempera ture until the journey into the open air does not chili them. At Montgomery and at Piano tliis road provides 1,000 acres of lands for purpofees. A prain elevator, a capacity of 100,000 bushels, and hay barne, in which 500 tons may be stored, are prominent objects upon the biff farm. The herds are treated to mineral water of a quality so good that much of It is bottled for table use in this city. A big hotel accom modates the owners of the sheep un til such times are the animals are ready for market. Xj other corporate interest dealt) as lightly with its customers as the railroads with the sheeprai-.er. In every case the yardage is free. The grain consumed is charged for at es tablished rates, according to the mar ket price, (j ra/.irif? co:-.i- the uniform rate of one-half of one cent a day per head. All the work about the sta tion is done by railroad employee, who work upon fixed salaries. Dipping costs S'/g cents per head. Shearing is done for ten cents a head. Of this seven cents go«.-H to the op erator and three cents toward the maintenance of the plant. All shear ing is done by machinery, and it is said that the excess wool secured by this method more tiian pays the cost of re moving the coat. No part of the expense incurred after the sheep are landed at the railroad company'* plant is collected until 1 lie owner of the hlieep has disposed of thcr/r. The charges follow the mani fest, arid the drover *ettle* the whole bill at'the st ockya rd*. In one ca*e a Montana droter, who k'-pt hi flock* at Montgomery, shipped them to Liv erpool. He wan obliged to pay only hi* personal expense* up to the time he disposed of hi* sheep, when the bill of the Burlington wah collected.—Chi cago Tiine*-Ilcra!d. Scarcity of Tin. That the gold- field* of the world are ruuch more exteflfcive than the tin field* i* a fact which might strike the unscientific person with a curious feel ing of surprise. The tin fields which are known to exist cover an twa of lend than 15,0 <0 square miles, while the gold field* are something over 1.500,0<>0 square miles. Therefore there are 132 square inilei of gold-bearing regions for every single mile of ground where tin i;; known to exi*t.

North America ha« no tin mine*, South America bu' one, Asia has two, IVru and Bolivia contribute 4,000 tons a year, and Aii tralia mines about 6,000 tons a year.

One of tbe Moat Beautiful of Wood* Had a Hard Fight for Favor. Many people suppose that the use of mahogany for the manufacture of furniture is very ancient. As a mat ter of fact, the first record we have of thus rare wood is in 1695, when Sir Walter Raleigh repaired one of his ship* with it in the port of Trinidad. The next we hear of mahogany ia many years later, when an Englishman who was sailing from one of the West Indies used quite a lot of what ap peared to him rough lumber for bal last, and when he arrived in England and found his brother building a house he gave this apparently ill-featured timber to him for his house. When his brother turned the lumber over to his carpenters, they refused to use it, because it was so hard that it spoiled | their -tools; so its use for building that I house was abandoned. His wife, however, a short time after I gave some of this wood to her cabinet- I maker in order to have him make for her a candle box. He, too, complained of the hardness o 1 the wood and its effect upon his tools. The candle box was finished at last, however, and it was so handsome, having taken on such a beautiful polish, that this box be came quite a curiosity among the so ciety people of that day; so much so 'that the lady's husband had the same cabinetmaker make him a bureau of the same wood. The bureau was so unusually beautiful that the cabinet maker went regularly into the busi ness of manufacturing bureaus, and made not only a reputation, but a Targe fortune out of the business.— Atlanta Constitution. fSlrri* M«-al th «• Klfctrlc Mghtii.
