THE BEST SHEEP.
The best sheep for a farmer to
keep are those that yield the
heaviest fleeces arid the greatest
number of pounds of meat. The
scrub sheep will yield from three
t3 six pounds of wool per head,
while merinos will range between
ten and twenty pounds, and thor
oughbred Cotswolds more. Why
is it that farmers do not raise.the
sheep which-will give these heavy
feeces ? Then as to meat, the
fine sheep produces an enormous
amount of flesh, and do not eat
any morethan a scrub. But be
sides these facts, the fine sheep do
not only yield larger fleeces per
head, hut .the wool is of superior
q'ality. The same is true of the
flesh of fine sheep in comparison
with scrubs.
Southdowns, for instance, are the
fnest mutton in the world, always
commanding an extra price-a
flesh which princesses dcsire
-while the fleece is medium. The
Shropshire -stands next in meat
quality, and are next to Ootswols
in fleeces. The profit of these
breeds are very great in times of
i-erdinary prosperity, and under all
d ireamstances it is best for the far
mer to breed them, because they
~ ay bett'er-the grand result Whiich
is the supreme object to the farmer
''the hlighest possible remunera
tion for his capital and labor.
-And all this concerning sheep is
true of fine breeds of cattle,
horses, hogs and poutry. In the
-face of these indisputable facts the
mass of the people should not han
dle scrub stock, and entertain an
ignorant opposition to fine breeds.
There is one supreme reason for
this.. The mass of the people do
not read papers devoted to live
stock interests, and are wholly
ignorant of the vast progress that
is making in the more intelligent
ranks of farmers. There are sec
tions of Kentucky where the im
proved breeds of stock are almost
unknown. It is only a small num
ber of men who are alive to it and
keep themselves thoroughly posted
in regard to the progress of agri
cultural science and the breeding
of the best animals, while the
masses remain in the old ruts, fol
lowing after the custom o*f a hun
dred years ago. If farmers would
elevate their calling and render it
more remunerative, they must put
themselves in living connection
with the intellectual spirit of the
age.-Kentucky Live Stock Jour
nal.
ROW TO GET EALY TOMATOES.
As'soon as your tomato plant bas
made four leaves, pinch the top
bud from the stemn, then take up
the plant, pinch off two inches
from the tap-root and transplant
in a common box frame where the
soil is rich and loamy. The box
will keep off -the wind, and plants
sown and grown -there eighteen
inches apart will produce fruit two
weeks sooner than the same plant
ed in the open ground. A mat of
a few boards spread over the
frame is far easier and quicker
than going over a field mghtly
and, setting boxes over each hill.
As soon as the plants have set
fruit on two blossoms of each
branch, and the top has grown
two to four leaves, the pinching
off the ends of' each branch and
top should be again put in pr-ac
tice.
SWEET PoTATOES.- Boil your
potatoes until tender; then slice
several times the long way of the
potato; place a layer of the slices
on the bottom of an earthen dish;
an~-nL1~ liohtlv with white sugar,
SPEAK GENTLY TO YOUR ow.
-If you would have your cow give
[own her milk don't whip her, club
ier, whack her with the milking
tool, kick her, nor even speak
oud and harshly to her. Some
ows are so phlegmatic and good
aatured that a moderate amount of
Il-treatment does not-seem to :dis
:urb their equanimity. Others are
aturally vicious and will kick and
hook without provocation. There
is another class that, while not
vicious, are so nervous that they
may easily be made to appear
ugly, and in time becom; really so,
in consequence of rough handling
or carelessness. It requires a con
siderate and good-dispositioned
man to manage such cows and get
along with them. They must be
humored, spoken kindly to and
gently handled in milking. Swear
ing at them or beating them will
demoralize them fearfully and make
them almost useless in a short time.
It is often among the very best
milkers and butter makers that
these nervous animals are found,
and the owner cannot afford to
have their value thus impaired.
No violence should be allowed
among-the cows at any time; but
if you should have impatient help,
or are quick-tempered yourself, let
some person who don't get mad so
easily milk the nervous cows. Make
up your mind before you approach
a nervous cow that you wil treat
her gently, even if she acts pro
voTingly. Beaiag ew to induce
her to act as you would have her
will only increase a bad difficulty.
THE ENGLISH FARMER.--As a
reason why American farmers
ought to be contented, the Agri
culturist gives this account of the
farmer in England: He does not
own his land, except in very rare
instances, and is obliged not only
to pay a yearly rental of $20 to
$25 per acre, but to keep the hard;
ly worked land in good condition,
is forced to employ a working capi~
tal of at least $50 an acre, to be
expended in artificial fertilizers.
He is prohibited by la.w from kill
ing wild a'simalsi such as rab
bits, hares, foxes,: partridges, and
pigeons, while his cats and dogs
are killed by his landlord's game
keeper, lest they might injure tho~
game. This games feeds on his
crops, and he must submit to see
his fields sometimes ravaged by
them. He is obliged to raise sach
crops as his landlord considers best
for the land. He is bound to all
these requirements by an exacting
ease, which makes him a species
of serf to his landlord.
ANIMALS AND PLANT FooD.
Plants feed upon carbonic acid ;
nimals create it. Plants supply

THE SUN.
1877. NEW YORK. 1877.
The different editions of THE SUN during the
next year will be the same as during the year
that has just passed. The daily edition will on
week days be a sheet of four pages, and on Sun
days a sheet of eight pages, or 56 broad columns;
while the weely edition will be a sheet of eight
pages of the same dimensions and character that
are' already familiar to our friends.
TaE SUN will continue to be the strenuous
advocate of reform an d retrenchment, and of th e
sbstitution of statesmanship, wisdom. and in
tegrity for hollow pretence, imbecilty, and
fraud in the administration of public affairs. It
will contend-for the government of the people
by the people and for the people, as oppose<L to
government by frauds in the ballot-box and in
the counting of votes. enforced by military vio
lnce. it will endeavor to supply its readers-a
body now not far from a million ofsouls-ewith the
most careful, complete, an d trustworthy accounts
of current events, and wvill employ for this pur
pose a numerous and carefully selected staff of
reporters and corre<pondents. Its reports from
Washington, especially, will be full, accurate,
and fearless; and it will doubtless continue to
deserve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive
by plundering the Treasury or by usurping what
the law does not give them, while it will en
deavor to merit the confidence of the public by
defending the rights of the people against the
encroachments of un'justified power.
The price of the daily SUN will be 55 cents a
month or St6.50 a year. post paid, or with the
Sunday ed ition $7.7' a year.
The SUNDAY edition alone, eight pages, $1.23
a year. post paid.
The WEEKLY SUN, eight pages of 56 broad
columns, will he furnishcd during 1877 at the
rate of S1 a year, post paid.
The benefit of this large reduction from the
previous rate for TH E WEEKLY can be enjoyed
by individual subscribers without the necessity
of making up cdnbs. At the same time. if any
of our friends choose to aid in extending our
circulation, we shall be grateful to them, and
