OBSERVING TILE TIDES. Care of Sow at Farrowing. The care of the breeding animals should pot be spasmodic or irregular but continu- ous through all seasons of the year. The sows should especially ,be fitted for the uaes they are intended to supply. They must necessarily have laxative footle, con- tainietes, the nitrogenous elements and the phospieetes, such as millstuffs, oats, oilmeal and plenty of clover, which promote mud cube development. Corn or any other starchy foods constipate the bowels and OOntraOG the muscles to the extent that parturition is difficult and otten impossible, so that fatalities are the result. At a, meeting of the Miesouri State Swine - Breeders' Association Mr. 0. D. Rester said: "There might a great deal be said on the question of how to treat the sow at farrow- ing and at the instance of ea tt, worthy pee- retary I will give you a ee 1 impreasiens gathered from my own experience. When we take into consideration the value of ihe brood tate and the important part she plays in the great swine breeding world it behooves us to make every effort to dis- cover how best we may treat her that the highest resuite may. be obeained. "At the time of mating I prefer to have the sow in good, vermeils condition but not fat. After being bred she should be put,aside and watched closely art the time of heat draws nigh. As soon as she is found to be in pig, iihe may be put in bet- ter flesh to enable her to reaponcl to the additional strain made upon her system in the suste.namce and development of the un- born progeny, lint in every case this should be done with bone and muscle forming food, sucli as dad or a slop made of milltatuerand oil cake meal but witis little corn. She should at all times aave-the run of a good roomy lot or pasture in order to afford her an abundance of daily exercise. " A week or ten days before due to far- row she should be iaolated and made ac- quainted with her new quarters. At this period no corn should be fed btit a liberal supply of warm slop. I have never had a sow thus cared for experience much trouble at farrowing time. As to the best, kind of a house, I hardly know what to duta, but during the winter tied early dayemst spring, it warm, dry home is most certainly called for. 1 use a houseebuilt expressly for this purpose, with a stove in it, and find it a success ; and Use prairie hay or bluegrass, which grow abundantly in our section, for bedding, as it acclumulates less dust, and wears longer than strew.

We decided that as the Russian authorities did not want them they should try to go ashore. They were arrested at once on information supplied by the Ruaeian spy who was on oard.

"I went to the Routna.nian Ambassador and, representing myself as a merchant Constantinople, told him that I had hea that some persons under the protection of his government were detained on the ship in the harbor and could not come ashore. He told me that he could nor. do anything. Then I remeinbermathat one of our 'lumber was an American citizen, and had his wife and tee') children with him. I went to the American Consul and told him the same story that I told the Roumanian Ambassa- dor. When he heard that a lady and two children were detained he sent Ina secretary to inquire into the matter at once. "The next day when I called I was told that the man was not an American, but that the lady and children had been brought' ashore. "The time was coming, however, for the dean -ter , to sail on her return trip to Galatz, Roumania, and there still remained on board the American citizen and another.

This evidence lies in the fact of ass volmateio oreamecamat of much of the cireumpolar region, in the colossal geysers of boiling water, and when it is coesiderecl that a vast area is entirely unknown, not having been trodden by human feet since the last great oath.' olyani, it is inferrable that there are other evidenoes only awaiting the explorer. On the Ural Meuntains, whicbeferm a part of the boundary between Europe and Asia, and which project northward to the Sea of aerie are deposits of asbestos., silver, plat- inum, diamonds, gold and non, and all things indicate that hi the prepolar time this region must have been a veritable Ar. cadet. A point on the southwest coast of Greenland, just a .few miles south of the arctic circle, enjoys the distinction of hav- ing the only known, mine of eryolite in the world. This is an, ice -capped point on Cape Desolation and is only accessible to vessels of unusually stantsch construction. Very marly in the century a German prospector named Goleeck, who landed at Cape Earewell, which is the southern ex- tremity a Greenland, wee the first Euro- pean to make this discovery. Being tola of this curious stone by a native, he pro- ceeded up the Arsuk Fiord, went to the place, and at the water's ' edge saw the outcropping of the white, soft substarice which the natives used in dressing pelts_ rubbing it on the fleshy side, where its action was much like that of soap. The material was then named•cryolite, meaning ice atone, and the prospector had, found the floride of !sodium ana 'aluminium, the substance having a considerable oommercial value, as alum, salsoda, bicarbonate of soda and other substances having value are its products. This cryolite deposit is very peculiar. It occurs at the lease of a moun- tain slope, in the forth of an oval pocket or chimney, its longer and shorter axes being 100 and 200 feet respectively, extending downward at an angle of forty-five to the horizon. The sides, as fardown as the exceva- tion exte ds, are of gray granite, and the formation was also coveted with this reek. In the absence of any more specitic infor- mation as to geological chacteristics it may be surmised that this chimney in some past age did service ' as a vent .hole for some spouting geyser, and may at one period have spouted water highly charged with the sula stances 'mentioned, held in solution. It is a most unease mine, being simply a huge shaft werked in "benches" and extending slantingly of EL DOWN LETO TEE -BART. re Being close to the arctichircle it is near the eixtieth parallel, and is farther north than are the Russian penal minea in Siberia.

The polar regime is one vast cemetery 'of the remains of a world of bygone fauna, and on a scale of aggregation that would probably exceed that of the combined world at present. The time has gone by for our earth again to poseess the conditions of such reprocinc- aye vigor as produced both theearlier fauna and flora.

The prospects are excellent, and the weather favorable, Stea,mere are reported taking seals off' Fogo and Tilt Cove. Thoueands of seals have been hauled ashore over the lee, The tieals are well distributed, SO bli;tt many eteamera are participating in the eateh. Writing On MP earlier date a St. John's correspondent says :--- On the 11)th instant our eealing steamers started for the icefields. The 5e8804 is favorable so far fot getting north. We have had, up to this date, but little east- terly wind, which often packe the ice close in upon the shore, and lags up the beys, ao that the steamers cannot penetrate the great nodes so as to search for the seals. Weeterly and southwesterly winds have lately driven the ice off shoreeeo that the steamers have made a favorable start.

One steamer, the Eagle, wee lost at the whale fisherY,- but her place has been filled up by another, the Windsor Lake, About 5,000 men are etriltarked. Much depends on ehe success of the seal fishery. In a favorable year it is worth over three-quarters of .8 million dollars to the country. Formerly it used to vetch a million dollars. This bervest is reaped without any sowing in eix or eight weeks. It is, however, very precarious. Last year only 129,061 seals were taken. In 1892 tbe number taken was 340,624. So many of the seals escaped the huntete last year that it is anticipate d they will be found in large numbers teat year and that the returns will be ebove the average; but the ice,the vvinds and the waves have to be recleouecl with; so that, as we often say here,' "it is all a lottery." Nothing is cer- tain but its uncertainty. ACT EEGULATING TILE nsainny. Last year certain amendments were made in the act which regulates the seal fishery. As the act now stands, no steamer can leave a port in Newfoundland for the pro. sedition of the seal ashery before the 10th day of March in each year, at 2 o'clock, afternoon, under is penalty of$4,000,unless the 10th of March falls on aSanday, in which case steamers can leave on the 9th at 2 lain. No custom house offieer Nem clear a vessel for a sealing voyage before March 9th. Taking seals 011 Sunday was prohibited in the same amendments; and should any seals so killea i be brought into any port n the colony the owners woilld be liable to a penalty of $2,000. The objet for prohib- iting the sailing of steamers before March 10bh is to prevent the capture of seals before they have reached the age and size which have been found to give the best returns. When taken before the age of three or four weeks, the skins and, fat are comparatively of small value.11 allowed to reach the age named they are then in the hest -condition, the quality of both oil and skin being best fitted for the processes in which they are used. A GANAD/AN NongsTAY,T ER. A good deal of lively feeling has beets awakened by tbe announcement that on the 5th the sealing steamer Newfoundland passed the mouth of Ss. John's harbor, shaping her course for the ice -fields. She has thus a start of five days in advance of our steamers and has the field all to her- self. She (steered at Lunenburg, being manned there, and consequently is not bound by our laws outside the three mile limit. Themewspapers have commented in strong terms on the injustice of a Domin- ion steamer being permitted to disregard our fishery laws, and injure a valuable fish- ery whieh we are trying to protect. The matter has also been referred to in the Ilduse of Assembly, and the Government were called on to explain why they had not. corresponded with the Dominion Gov- ernment on the matter, so as to secure co - i operation n the protection of our seals. A resolution, it seems, was passed last ses- sion instrueting the Government to do thee but they allege there was no unanim- ity of opinion as to what the Dominion Government shoald be asked to do, and in. consequence they did nothing, Now this xnatter has a very serious aspect Should mere Celled bet steamers take part in the seal fishery, which they have a perfect right to do, and should they foliosv the ex- ample of Captain Farquharson; by starting several days ahead of our vessels, thus not only foretelling them, but injuring the prospects of this industry for the future, then disastrous results would be likely to follow. Our laws for the protection of this Ashery are the results of extended and experienced and much ihoughttul consider- ation. 13efore Such protection was ettab- Halted the fishery had been declining rapid. ly ; but since it has gre`atly improved. I should think thereevould be no difficulty in coming to an understan ding with Can- ada so as to secure whatever legislation is needed to regulate the departure of vessels from Canadian ports,so as tot to strike the seals prematurely, The Government of Canada would not for a moment refuse co- operation in such a desirable object. It is for the interests of both eouutries that this valuable fishery should be preserved, end a commou arrangement agreed on. Probably before the close of the session some action will be taken in this matter. t FOR MEN AND WO OWEN Jralo Mark] DE A, OWRN.
