Sir Clinton thought to himself that

Then the doctor went away.
The nurse sent a message to the ef-

More and more attention is constant-
ly being given by stock raisers to pure
blood in stock of all kinds, and espe-
cially so is this true with regard to the
breeding of sheep. The large sheep men
are constantly seeking to improve their
flock by breeding from registered rains
of approved strains..
A growing favorite is the Bambara -
let. This sheep is becoming more popu-
lar every year, and its friends claim
that it combines more of the character-
istics of the perfect sheep than any oth-
er breed.
The Rambouillets began to be im-
ported into the United States some
years ago, and are now gradually
spreading over the whole country, and
particularly in the west, among the
large breeders. It was not until 1889,
however, that the American Rambouil-
let Sheep Breeders' association was or-
ganized, largely through the efforts of
the late Air. L. B. Townsend of Ionia,
who was the first member tosign
the articles of association, its first
treasurer, and under whose direction
the first volume of The Rambouillet Rec-
ord was printed in WI. Since that
time the association has grOWII into a

this country and in introduciug them
to the woolgrowers hero
The Townsend farm at Colby, Mont -
calm county, Mich., is known all over
the coentry as the "Colby Rambouillet
Farm" mul the place where this breed
of sheep in all its verity can be found
surrounded by the most favorable con-
ditions possible for the breeding of
sheep. The farm consists of about 1,500
aeras of land, well watered and With
most excellent pasture. The buildings
are large and adapted to sheep raising.
The farm has -a. railroad station of its
own, with a long siding for e.hipping
purposes, and during the sheep season
prominent sheep men from Montana,
Idaho and Dakota can there be seen to-
gether with men from TeaandMexi-
co. Since the death of Mr. Townsend
the Colby farm has been successfully
managed. by one of his daughters.
The history of the Rambouillet is in-
terestingIn 1785Lonis XVI of France,
who two years before had bought the
domain of Rambouillet and established
an experimental farm thereon, obtained
permission from the king of Spain to
purchase and take from that kingdom
a flock of pure Merinos. The Spanish
king gave orders that the selection be -
made from the finest flocks of his king-
dom. The Rambouillet flock was put
tinder the care of an agricultural cone -
mission at the beeinning of the French
revolution and through all the horrors
of that period it was preserved from
danger. From the day of its foundation
in 1186 to the present time, a period of
over 100 years, this flock has been con-
ducted witb the closest attention to
feed, care and selection. From this
flock and the equally well bred royal
flocks of Germany have the American
importations been made, and the royal
Rocks of France never received better
care from the king than they now re-
ceive at the Townsend farm. a`
The Rambouillet has a broad back,
covered with a fine, well crimped wool,
long, soft and compact. It is even over
all parts of its body from his eyes to his
hoofs. It is remarkably free from yolk,
but with oil sufficient to promote the
greatest growth, finest fiber and most
compact fleece, which parts as a book
opens. Longevity is a great point 'with
these sheep, ewes trona 12 to 15 years
of age producing good lambs. The best
rams weigh from 200 to 250 pounds
and shear from 15 to 24 pounds of wooL
These rams are especially valuable to
cross on Merino grades or any of the
coarse wool breeds. The Rambonillet
ewes make excellent mothers and under
, proper conditions will produce lambs at
r any season of the year, vahich is a great
advantage as this is decidedly a na'ut-
ton breed as well as a great wool pro-
ducer.

Dim waste.
EdwartlAtkinson makes a very sharp,
keen remark when, in writing about
the fearfnl waste of both skinearilk and
cornstalk), he stays in effect that he
does not heow much about farming,
but when be sees this waste going on
all because of the ignorance of naen be
has a right to conclude that the event
age farmer himself really imows but
little of farming. Little as Mr. Atkin-
son Irmo's, remarks Board's Dairyman,
he knows enough to see this.big waste,
whereas he talks with lots of farmers
who don't know it. nor can they see it.
Pope says something about familiarity
breeding contempt Is that not the se-
cret of this xnattex? So many farmers
havefor so long a time been amens-
tomed to this wasteful wale of handling
cornstalks and skimmilk that they
really cannot eea the wastefulnessof it.
But Mr. Atkinson is right. clear away
right, when he speaks of this fearful
waste. Let it be remembered always
that 40 -per cemt of the combined value
a the corn plant is in the stalk. Let
every farmer take that tact as his guide
and, then so shape his farm methods,
feeding methods and all methods as
to save all of that waste possible. Let
him also remember that 40 per cent has
beenonce earned by lais own- expendi-
tare for labor, and he must pay for the
growing of it. If he wastes 40 per cent
of what he earns, the responsibility
rests on him and mot on Providence. A
full study and consideration of that
fact will be enongh to Lead any man
out into better and more saving meth-
ods if he will but follow its teachings.

Commercial Dairying.
If the dalsry farmer is located near a
village or city, many times it will pay
to establish a milk route, writes F. W.
Maseley mm The Western Agriculturist.
In some instances cream can be sold to
hotels, ice cream makers, restaurants
and to soda foniatain proprietors. If
such openings have already been taken,
doubtless the next best thing to be done,
as a rule, will -be to make strictly first
class butter and seek private customers
for it in the same village or city. Such
customers, once secured, are easily held,
if butter is kept up to a high standard
of excellence. Ascertain the amount
wanted by each customer and deliver
on a certain day each week. The de-
livery of butter to private customers af-
fords opportunities for selling other
farm and garden products, including
poultry, eggs and byprodects of the
dairy cottage cheese, for instance,
which some dairymen make from their
skin:milk. A dairyman living quite a
distance from town would not often de-
cide to establish or buy a milk route;
hence the decision has to be made as to
whether it will be better and more
profitable to make the milk up at home
or send it, or the cream, to the publio
creamery, or the milk to a cheese fac-
tory, provided one or both of. those in-
stitutions are convenient. There are, no
doubt, times and locations when and
where it may be better to patronize a

Electric Ilene Rung by the Sun.
Professor Torvald Kohl of the Odder
observatory, Denmark, reports that
when the huge sun spot of Septembes
last was crossing the solar meridian
magnificent auroral lights flashed across
the heavens, and the electric bells in
the great telegraph station at Fredericia
rang without any visible cause. The
telegraphic service in Denmark was dis-
turbed for hours during the auroral die'
play. Professor Kohl thinks that the
agency of the sun in producing the phe-
nomena was evident Similar exhibi-
tions of "wireless telegraphy" between
the sun and the earth have bee* noted
in the past.
