M "" WINTER CARE or SHEEP, l The nearer we come to spring thel more carefully should we look after the health of the sheep, says E. A. Vincent. A little neglect Just now! may cost more than we at first thought 1 would be willing to admit. A prime requirement at any season of the year, I but especially in winter, is that sheep, should have plenty of pure water. I knpw there is an idea among many sheep men that sheep do not need) much water in cold weather. In con-| sequence of this mistaken notion, we: not infrequently see the poor nea- tures knee deep in the snow banks trying hard to assuage their thirst by licking the cold snow. This is not right. The man who will not take pity on his flock after witnessing their efforts to get a drink in that way ought never to keep sheep. They need a great deal of water and must have it to do well. l Here are some suggestions for dairy- men: Never use anything but a clean sound tub with perfect hoops and covers. Use parchment paper in- stead of cloth on the butter. If you use salt, which is entirely needless, on the paper, use none but fine, clean salt, and a very small amount at that. Never use tin. It you want small packages, say ii, 10, 15 or 20 pounds, use something made of wood, of which there are many kinds, among them white cedar, a very tidy, tasteful package. As to color nothing comes nearer perfection than a good lemon. Unless you have a private trade, put your butter on the market as fast as made; for very few dairymen make an article that will not show an old flav- or after being held for weeks. I know that this proposition calls for the sell- ing many times of some of the finest of June butter for a very low price; but with very few exceptions holding the butter puts it all at those very low prices, while if sold as soon as made, an early and later make will bring prices that will raise your aver- age price much above the winter price for held summer make. Finally in every respect put your butter in the best of shape, the same as you do any other thing sold or put on sale from your farm. Do with it as you always do with a horse or cow when you put it on sale; you clean these up, and as with the horse put on the beat harness and trapping-anis that attracts and favorably impresses a would~be purchaser; for almost without excep- tion first impressions are strongest and quite generally prevail. Last of all, put your own name and address on every package in good, plain, attractive type; this will give a purchaser con- fidence in your goods, because he will know you are not ashamed of them, and this name is at the same time vir- tually a guarantee that everything is honest and straight. In the way of coarse fodder, mixed timothy and clover, out early, is the best of anything. Now and then some nice, bright oat straw may be substituted for hay. ‘You will find that they will eat it with great re- lish, even leaving timothy for it. Every day a few whole oats may now be fed ewes soon to yean. For sheep I place tr high value on this gain. I can be remedied, or entirely overcome, and any one or all are the means by which butter will remain unsold or will have to he sold M reduced prices. as white. as lard, butter of a deep orange color, butter that was mottled and streaked like marble; some salted with cheap salt that was tstill not dis.. solved, and when the cover and cloth were removed this was covered with specks ot dirt. All of these things After this deal was finished, with the permission of the dealer, 1 went through his stock on hand. And here is what I tbund--tubs with hoops black and slippery with mold, with nails driven in to hold them to the package, covers on which were spots where, the blanking used for marking the package had been spilled, covers split and colored from being wet, tttha covered with cheap, unbleached cloth with a heavy coating of common bar- rel salt, tin pails rusty and bruised, some qt them with the tin coating off in spots, not one in fifty that looked wholesome and tidy; butler that was Now I propose to explain some things that I find common in the butter market that cause loss. which if they were only known to most dairymen, and they would heed them, would be a benefit to them. Just Bow to explain matters is to me 8 question. Iknow of but one practical way, and that is to tell just what I see day after day as I go through the market. A few days ago, while tn a butter store, a customer came in look- ing for a purchase of several tabs, and the dealer began to show hits stock. I noticed that each time the purchaser called for a package to be opened for the trial he invariably choose one that looked clean and tidy on the outside. While looking through quite a large stock he came to a bunch of tubs that were not only clean but nicely varnished or oiled on the out- side; every cover was perfect, white clean timber, no knots or dark stain- ed spots in the wood. When the covers were removed the butter was clean and smooth, covered with a parchment Paper and everything about the pack- age was tidy and attractive. 'i’he re- sult was that his purchase was made from this lot, at 160 per pound, while at the same time there were Other lots selling for from 12 to Ilk.; and aside from the general appearance there was scarcely any difference in the quality of the butter inside the pack- “80; and without doubt had some of the other lots been tried, he would have purchased from them. Sometimes if men eould only see ahead for a very short time they oould make many or certain plans that would be the means of giving them success, the failure to make which causes total failm e, writes H.

In France and England and in the Unit- ed States, the orange flower is in vogue, while the maidens of Italy and the French provinces of Switzerland, use white roses. Pings, carnations, and red roses are worn y Spanish brides. In Lithuania the bridal wreath is wound of the Syrian rue; on the [onion Is- lands, the grape vine; in Bohemia, Cor- inthia, and the Krain districts, of rose- mary, and in Hesse, of artificial flow- ers, to which ribbons are added. In Norway, Sweden, and Servia bridal crowns are made of silver; in Havana and Silesia, of gold wire, glass beans and tinsel; among the Fins, the Wenda and the peasants of Alteuburg. of pa- per, and in Athena of costly filigree.

He has also been greatly week- ened by his recent attack of the gout. His physician insists thet he shell re- main in bed and receive the greatest care. The prices paid tor dishes and drinks are high, and the happy young couple make a handsome profit out of their wedding, often realizing a sum suffi- cient to start them pretty nicely in life. Often 300 guests are present at such a wedding. Sometimes the flow of presents is in the other direction. In Poland, for instance. agirl is not regarded eligible for marriage until she has wrought with her own hands cloths and garments for the friends who will accompany her future lord to he altar. But in moat countries the wedding present system is similar to that which is familiar here, and which has become a serious tax. The following are some of the queer customs connected with the wearing of bridal wreaths: OLD WEDDING GIFTS. Giving wedding presents is an old custom, but the custom differs in dif- ferent countries. Scotland‘s penny weddings were peculiar. They were called penny affairs, but the invited guests contributed shillings, and occa- sionally a half crown, and out of the sums thus collected the expenses of the wedding feast were paid. Germany has a " pay weddihg" at which the bride receives her guests with abasin before her, in which each person en- tering deposits a jewel, a silver spoon.. or a piece of money. Ia some parts of Germany the rule is that the expenses of the marriage feast shall be met by each guest paying for what he eats and drinks-a sort of European plan wedding, you might call it. A box about 2 1-2x8 1-2 feet and six or eight inches in depth is set on an axle long enough to give the wheels plenty of play, in such a manner as to nearly balance, the heavier end be- ing toward the handle, so the one pushing or pulling it will have little weight to carry. To the sides of the box fasten with nails or bolts, three inch boards, extending three feet from the box and about five from the axle. Bore an inch hole through the, ends and put a round piece of wood, such as an old pitchfork handle or other strong wood, into these holes, fasten- ing the ends by wedging firmly. This will serve as a means of propelling the cart. Underneath the rear end of the cart, standards can be spiked or bolted on, so that the cart box will always remain in nearly a horizontal position when the propeller releases the handles. On nearly every farm there is one or two pairs of unused cultivator wheels. With those a out can be made which will save much labor, and many steps. Especially is this so where there are half grown children about. They will enjoy working with the cart and will do much of the feed- ing, haul wood and cabs, and do many chores that would .otherwitse take up the farmer's time and attention. On sunny days sheep like to run out for a while in the sunshine, but at night and on stormy days they should be provided with a dry shed, furnish- ed with straw or other litter to keep them dry. Sheep are exceedingly sensitive to a damp sleeping place. When yeaning time comes on, the ewes should be taken into a good warm pen, ptutieularly at night. Car- ed for as I have outlined there is lit- tle danger that the sheep will not come through all right and do well all through the summer. know of nothing better. 1 know some prize barley even more highlyJ and there is no doubt that it is good, but I have seen sheep made ioo fleshy by liberal feeding of barley. Now and then a feeding of bran may be given instead of oats and a frequent ration of turnips or small potatoes will have a decidedly good effect upon the di- gestion. - ___ MR. CHAMBERLAIN'S ILLNESS.
