Pheep a Snfe lneatmrnt. A Wisconsin niHii. long Interested In Fheep, says that the number of sheep In this country this yenr Is l),(XMl.(xj) short of lust season. This means n great deal, and It aiguilles that It will be safe to engage in the sheep Indus try ot the present time, as it Is bound to take ftoiu five to seven years to breed up and regain this loss. The present high price of sheep will in duce every sheep owner to sell oft just as closely as possible, and that is bound to keep the number down. "Many years ago there was used more wool to the person in the United States than there is to-day. since cot ton lias come into such general use, but a (iiiiirter of a century ago there was very little demand for mutton. To-day the demand is great, and It Is on the increase right along. This, with the shortage in the numlx-r of sheep and the high price of wool, Is bound to make hheep raising and feeding profitable for sevcrul years to come. Kane For Leizhorne. In case the fowls must be confined In u limited Rpace, one should not con sider the Leghorn, and particularly the M'hite Leghorns, for they are ner vous and require a range of consider able area to do their best. On the fnrm, where they may have this range in colonies, they will probably produce more eggs than any other breed, but If poultry is raised on the farm for the purpose of selling both eggs and car enss. then the Leghorns should be crossed with some heavy breed or two breeds kept, oue for the eggs and one for the carcass. Another thing abont'the Leghorns is that they are timid and must be treat ed with consideration, so that !t Is a good plan to give the flock over to the care of one person and keep other peo ple away from tliem; they must also bo fed regularly for best results. Like all living things that are nervous they are In. patient of anything that does not suit them, and an hour's difference In the time of feeding may make some difference in the egg return. Indian apolis News. A German's Poultry Farm, A writer recently saw u successful poultry farm on which there was not a single regulation poultry -house. The buildings for the poultry were con structed entirely from dry goods boxes bought ut n neighboring town for small sums. The larger boxes were Joined together in sufficient numbers, to make the mjiln houses, and the smaller boxes were taken apart to ob tain the short pieces needed, or else made up Into coops for the chicks or in smaller houses for the range, on tho colony plan. Each of the larger houses designed for the winter occu pancy was lined inside with newspa pers and outside with one of the wo terproof papers on the market. This is a farm where never less than 4(Mi fowls nre kept and where the poultry Is raised both for the curcass market and for eggs. This shows not only what may be done without elaborate buildings, but the advantages the av erage farmer has over other people in his ability to wow the feed needed and with more or less in the way of buildings which may be utilized (it no expense. Lettuce. Lettuce Is a sulad riant, n snlable greens, extensively forced in green houses during the winter, and In hot beds and cold frames In early spring. It can be sown from sprint; till fall, and is remarkable for being able to stand quite severe frosts. I.eUuee thrives best lu clny loam soil well treutod with well-rotted burnyurd manure. In curly spring tho seed Is sown In rows u foot apart and thinned to stand about six Inches apart In the row. Tor tho very early and very late crops, the loose-growing varieties are best for the reason that they mature the quickest. Tor early summer and fall crops, the larger head lettuces ure the finest. Ill order to have crisp, tender lettuce, the crops must bo sown rapidly. To secure a quick wowtu, the soil must be very rich. Nitrate of sodn scat tered broadcast along the rows and well raked in, will generally give a quick growth. It can be used at the rate of 200 to ."00 pounds to the acre. Indianapolis New. Tho llran Math, Everybody is supposed to know how to make a bran mash, but it is only In racing stables and large studs, as n rule, that one sees it duuo properly. To make u bran mash, first waab out a bucket with boiling water, then pour in the nuuntlly required, say three pli:"ls. and stir in threo pounds of brun, cover up and leave It tor a couple of hours or wore is not required for lm mcdlato use. A mash takes hours to fc''t cold, and Is ortuu offered to a sick hoiso too hot. mid refused, when it -would have been taken If properly prepared, and given warm lustead of scalding. The addition or a tablespoon fl of salt lu tho ordinary mash of a Saturday night can be recommended to keep down parasites and promote digestion, but should not be a part of tho Invalid diet, unless specially or dered. A mixture of linseed and bran li often prescribed both as a food and poultice. One part of linseed to two arm? of bran is ft desirable proportion for both purposes. To get all the feeding value out of linseed, several hours should be allowed for cooking, not merely Infusing, as with n bran miiRh. but gently "simmering" on the side of the stove. The vessel should be filled, funl towards the end the lid may be left off, and evaporation permitted while cooling. Raisins; Hothouse Yrgrtablew. A general discussion of the vegetable raising was n feature of a recent meet ing nt Horticultural Hall. Boston. W. W. Unwson was the principal speaker, nnd he estimated that nearly two hun dred acres lu Massachusetts are under glass. The product Is sold In Uoston, New York, Philadelphia, Buffalo and Chicago. The vegetable-grower to-day should have several houses In order that each may be tit the proper tem perature. In no other part of the United States has the growing of vegetables under glass reached the point of perfection that it has here. There are more than 1-X market gardeners who bring prod uce to Boston, and the number Is in creasing. To-day it is n problem what to grow, and the mnn must study the market, know how to produce n good crop by close attention to details, and confine himself to n few kinds he Is most familiar with nnd which are best adapted to his soli and market. Mr. llawson advocated growing vegetables by electric light, and the use of steril ized soil. He thought the cucumber crop could be Increased fifteen per cent, by the use of the electric light. Vnrnuni Frost, another well-known market gardener, said it was an In sult to common sense to speak of grow ing vegetables by electricity. He never had used It nnd never would, nnd It was n good deal like another "fnd" which Mr. linwson had started of painting glass white, J. C. Stone said he liked to hear these comments, be cause when two market gardeners lived In the same town nnd disagreed so well, it was a sure sign that both were good growers. Massachusetts rioughinan. now Some Cropa May He IoulIeil. I-Vrtilizer experiments are being con ducted under the direction of the Pur due University experiment station on the ten-thousnnd-ncre farm of the American Farm Company, in Newton County. Ind.. which will eventually lead to the reclamation of the thou sands of acres of muck lund In Indi ana and also will be instrumental in reclaiming the muck lands in the Kan kakee swamps of Illinois. Milton C. Whitney, chief cf the bureau of soils of the Department of Agriculture, has returned to Washington, D. C, having approved the experiments now being conducted, and has promised assist ance from the Government. The fertilizer used by the university authorities consists of n solution of potash ond its value to muck soils has been found to be Incalculable. Where the fertilizer is used, the productive ness of the muck soil If increased from twenty to twenty-five bushels per aero and in many cases worthless laud Is reclaimed. The experiments show that it will require about 200 pounds to the acre or less than $5 worth of muriate of potash. The experiments ro far have been on corn crops, nnd next year tests will be made on truck crops along the same line. The United States experimental station staff will turn its attention next year to the Gilford lands, near Newland, In Jasper County, where there are thousands of acres of muck soil. There nre hundreds of thousands of acres of muck laud In Indiana and the importance of the experiments can readily lie seen when It is shown that the results are the saving of thousands of dollars to the farmers of the State. The method of Improving the product iveness of muck soils by the use of potash and straw was first developed at the 1'urdue station by Prof. II. A. Huston, who is now nt St. Louis. That was ten years ago, ond since that time the work has sprend to other stations In the West until its value is constant ly increuslng. A striking illustration of the value of this kind of work was furnished by the experiments on corn nnd muck soils In Newton and Tippecunoe Coun ties Inst season. In these experiments the yield of corn wns Increased from twenty to twenty-five bushels per acre the first season by the nee of 200 pounds of potash salts tin acre. As the potash cost less than $5 an acre, and ns the Increased crop was worth $10 or $12 an acre, there 1r a very de cided financial gain from the experi ment. There are over 2000 acres of muck soli on the farm lu Newton County where the experiment was con ducted. At a gain of $0 or S7 an acre, the profit on this one farm is some $12,000 or $14,000 In n single year, or nearly as much us the entire work of the station cost before the Legislature came to Its aid nt the lust sest'ou. The authorities at Purdue state that the effect of fertilization will continue lor several years. Experiments were tried on a truck farm near Nappanee, Ind. It wus shown that 300 bushels of onions were grown to the acre with out tho potash fertilizer, nnd with potash alone, 400 bushels was the crop. With the complete fertilizer potash, phosphoric acid and nitrogen the yield was 70S. Other experiments have been'conducted in the onion district of Indiana and the results have been that there Is no end to the increase ot value of the lund when proper fertilization Is used. The station Is preparing u bulletin which will be off the press In a few weeks outlining the work that has been done end the re bulls obtained, Indianapolis News. Keep a Itecord, Try to keep a record of your best layers and, 11' possible, save your pul lets from them, always discarding the Inferior layers. Thus you may bjilld up a laying strain of whatever variety you may keep. But there Is a limit that should bo kept in mind. Ileus that are kept laying through the win ter should not lie expected to continue n high record through the spring and summer. It will bo a progressive Btep when we get our eggs for hatching from hens that have not laid inucll during tho winter mouths. lOMlhtkClAL khltn. R. G. Dun & Co.'s "Weekly Review" of trade says : Weather irregularities provided the only check to businesi, partly through the oirect effect on retail distribution ol seasonable wearing apparel, but more th rough the development of camion among traders in some agricultural sec tions where crops have been .lumcged or farm work regarded. On the whole, however, encouraging progress is shown in most trade reports and industrial activity is unabated. Textile manufacturing is in a bcttei position than at any recent date, the strength of the raw materials giving additional firmness to finished fabrics. Footwear factories in New England are well engaged, and there is no re duction in the forces at work in the various departments of the iron and steel industry. Aside from the Chicago strike, there is exceptionally little friction between capital and labor, many higher wage scales going into effect during the week. Traffic returns are well maintained, rail way earnings for April exceeding last year's by 10.5 per cent., and lake navi gation is heavy. Coke prices are depressed by unpre cedented production, but consumption is on a scale that precludes the possi bility of any excessive accumulation in the near future. Failures this week in the United Stales are 212, against 04 last wi :, 204 the preceding week and 207 the correspond ing week last year. Failures in Canada number 22, against 15 last week, 21 the preceding week and 27 last year.

During the last year the Canadian government has paid out in steamship itibsidies a little over $500,000.

Making railroad rates la like paring a game of checkers or chess. Com nutnlties to be benefited, producers, manufacturers or shippers to be aided represent the pieces used. Every possi ble move Is studied for Its effect on the general result by skilled traffic mana gers. A false move In the making of freight rates may menu the ruin of a city, of a great manufacturing interest, of an agricultural community. Bail roads strive to build up nil these so that each may have an equal chance in the sharp competition of business. So sensitive to this rivalry are the rail roads that In order to build up business along their lines they frequently allow the shipper to practically dictate rates. Kate making has Ivou a matter of de velopment; of mutual concessions for mutual benefit. That is vhy the rail roads of the I'nited States have volun tarily made freight rates so much lower In this country than they nre on the government-owned nnd operated rail ways of Europe and Australia that they are now the lowest transportation rates In the world. The People's Schools. The schools belong to the people, nnd will be what the people make them. It Is a mistake to suppose that school officers and teachers are the only ones that have to do with the making of the schools. The people set the pace for the teachers nnd school officers. If a school officer does not meet the Ideals of the people he is turned out at the first election. If a teacher does not meet the Ideals of the people the teacher Is quickly reached through the school officers. So It gets back to the people In the end. The man that thinks the schools are not good enough should set him self about having them improved. It Ib astonishing how much one person can do to Improve the schools when he sets himself about it.

MOTHERHOOD Actual Sterility in Women Is Very Rare Healthy Mothers and Children Make Happy Homes. Many women long for a child to bless their homes, but because of some de bility or displacement of the female organs they are barren. Preparation for healthy maternity is accomplished by Lydia E. Pinkha'm's Vegetable Compound more successfully than by any other medicine, because it ?ives tone and strength to the entire cmale organism, curinir all displace ments, ulceration and inflammation. A woman who is in good physical condition transmits to her children the blessings of a good constitution. Is not that an incentive to prepare for a healthy maternity ? If expectant mothers would fortify themselves with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compouud, which for thirty years has sustained thousands of women in this condition, there would be a great decrease In miscarriages, in suffering, and la disappointments at birth. The following" letters to Mrs. Pink ham demonstrate the power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in such cases. Mrs. L. C. Olover.
