RooTs FOn SHBHP.-It is possible for us to learn very much from the farmers of Europe. They are under the neces sity of making the utmost profit that any branch of agriculture will yield. Consequently their farming operations are reduced to a science. Ours ought to be, but while we have so much land that is practically exhaustless in fertili ty we shall not bend our energies to make every foot of land and every ani mal produce to the extent of Its ability. There will also be exceptions, however. There will always be farmers who will try to do the beat they can, upon the very common-sense principle that when two dollars can be made just as well as one it s better to take the two. Such men, if they happen to be engaged in sheep husbandry, wvili make a study of European systems of breeding, feeding and management- The Englishman has made sheep raising profitable to a very high degree. He has shown us how to improve our sheep by careful breeding, and he can show us how to ulrnage them with profit. Of course, it 1 a not practical for us to follow Europe an systems of feeding literally, but in these systems we can find the principle of success. In England roots are large ly fed, and there is a question if they are not fed to too large an extent espe cially those that contain such a large amount of water as turnips. But in this country, as a rule, we do not feed enough. In the work on "Feeding Animals," by Professor Steweart, it is stated, as the result of careful experi ment, that ten pounds of turnips with one and a half pounds of corn will fat ton a young sheep or lamb faster than I three pounds of corn alone. The feed ing ol roots in Englouid, although we believe it is too extensive, is the secret of successful sheep-feeding in winter there. It will be more widely adopted here. Professor Stewart says that this this will be the ease unless the silo shall preserve better green food at a less price. Well, we do not believe the silo will ever do it. It could preserve bet ter food if the crop to be ensilaged was carolully selected, but we cannot get rid of our doubts that the coat will more thaan outweigh its superwrityv. Roots are good eanough for sheep and they are cheap. SUDiuER rREA''MENT OF GuAss LANDS. . -We have not ia just conception of the I value of our grasses, nor of the poss. t bility of procui ing 1he full value Iro i thet, Our system is not athlpted to this. We seed to grass for the purpose I of destroying it veiy Foon, while a 1 uleadow should iilpro in valuo yearly I for a century, if it is properly mansaged. 1 Some think our chinato is not suitable I for grass. The magmsilcent blue grass . lastures of Kentulcy, Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia, a.d the great "est eru prairies which have borne their pe rennial verdure for ages, contradict this - belief. If we grow the right kind of I grass we may have permanent meadows and pastuires; aind it we treat them in a judicloui n,anner these may be kept in j good coiidition always. There are a great variety of grasses. The fornie, 1 of comiae live but one year, and then i the roots die. Of this kind are those I late summer gras*es which we are alpt to call weeds; the second are longer lived, but soon1 lail anud gradualllly die Irom exhaaustion of' the roo0, Of tism kind is timothy, thme heat grass to grow with a biennial plant lake clover ina ro taitioni, but a vecry poor ono 4fo ameadow or' pastumre. The long pereannial grasses are ureamd grass, imaudow fesene, tall fescue, foul meadowv graiss, red top, Kentucky blue grass, meadowv oat gt as, yellaw oat grass, pereamnial rye grass, and some~ ot,bers which aare not less. noteworthy and useful. All these graisses hamve ilbr,ous roots, or r'untmnJg root stocks, which spread andl cover the grounmd wit,h a dense matL or Sodl. Our obhject shonld lbe to procure and( lpre serie a sod of thia kind, anad encourage its growth, both ini pastut e and nea ows, by careful, skilful treatmniat.

A short time ago he took one for a bad debt of $250, and immediately offered him for sale. A customer was soon found, and Mr. Mills took him out in the Central Park behind the horse. Uncle Joel desoanted volubly on the merits of the steed, and finally as he turned round to go home, said: "Well, I don't know but I'll withdraw my offer to sell this horse and keep him for my own use." His companion protested against this, said he liked ths horse, and was pro. pared to make a bid for him. Mr. Mills hesitated a moment and then said: 'Il take $1,000 for that horse, and not one cent less. He's the boat horse that goes the road to-day, and he is dirt cheap at twice the price I ask." "I'll give you $300 for him," was the reply. "I)one with you, sir," was the quick reply. "I'm not the man to dally split hairs on a horse trade.

The common job wagon of Para is a most clumsy affair- a more cart with out springs and with but two wheels, the whole guiltless of paint. The harness found with this vehicle always consists of a little square wooden ti d1e resting on a straw-stulted cushion, faces of chain, lather collar and no bits, the animal being guided by means of a long rope fastened to the neck, and perhaps also wound around the head. l;ome times this carriage is drawn by a single ox, but usually a wretched mule is urged along by blows from the knotted end of a rope or a short wooden whip with long leather lash. The driver is always clothed in a suit of blue drilling made in two garments only-pants and short, loose jacket. The pants are confined to the waist by some sort of a long lash, wound many times around the body. The square-cut jacket is finished with a straight binding about the neck, and is only buttoned at the throat, and falling open the rest of the way gives coolness to the wearer, and at the game time dis closes his natural complexion to every one. No business house of North Brazil has anything to do with delivering p+hr eels of groceries, etc., so that the bust nose of this cartman is to solicit orders for taking llone your purchases. On the way he trots niicbly by the side of his team, or else is perched on the thill of the rude cart, swinging his bare feet while he clings to his narrow seat, his loud, shrill and tuneless whistle only broken by his oceaaionai c xolaation of "Cami.nhal" which is an imperative "Go." ''here is now but one express wagon with springs in the city of Para. This one has beeu in great demand for moving pianos, but as it was not always readily obtained a regu1lar company of men has been organized for the purposo. The piano-moving company consists of negroes, who carry the instrument .on their heads, and for their services are paid at the rate of $5 por mile. Adtvice to Cunnttt lvos.
