To meet 1 trenchcry with treachery could bo no dis- < honor. < It was du-k, tlio sweet summer dusk, i when ho entered tbo park through a gotoseldom used by any but gamekeepers or iservants. Tho nightiuqalc# were breaking I ont into sudden gushes of melody, callingand answering ono another iroin distant chimps of chestnut or beccb. bnt Mr. Sin­ clair took no heed of tho nightingales. Inbis happiest frame of mind that jug-jug­ ging would have made no particular im­ pression upon his iiL-semi ivo ear; to-nightall senses were more or less iu abeyance. He found bis way along tho narrow foot­ path mi ctianically. looking netlbcr to thoright nor the left, and only reined himself when he camo within sight of tho house. How to get in unobserved and reach hisroom without meeting any of tlio servants was tho quest ion. A moment's reflection showed him that tins ought to bo ensy enough. Half ymstnine o’clock was tlio servants' supper hour at Davenanl, and meals in tho servants’hall arc an institution which even domesticconvulsions leavo unshaken. A funeral makes no difference in tlio divine right ofservants to dine and sup at a certain hour ;a wedding may cause somo supererogatory feasting, but can hardly overthrow the re­gular order of tho daily meals. Mr. Sin­ clair had no fear, therefore, of any altera­ tion in the routine of the household ; andho knew by experience that his servantsliked to take their lime at tho social even­ ing meal. It was twenty tninntes to ten when ho' stopped for a minute or#o in the sbrubborv J to consider his plana. Between ten and eleven said the auonymous loiter. Hu had no lime to lose. Ho skirted tljo lawn in front of the draw’-ing-room windows, keeping in the shadow 1 oi tho trees. Tlio windows were nil open, J and ho could seo tho whole of tho room. Lamps woio burning on tho tables, candleson the open piano, but his wilo was nut ‘. there. He wcut in at one of the windows. Tho child’s toys were lying on the floor by Constance’s favorite chair, and an openwork-basket, a little pilo ot books on a gypsy table, showed that the room had been lately occupied. ‘ She has gone to tho balcony room to keep her nppnintm»nt,' he thought, savagely, for by this time he bad acceptedthe anonymoua warning ns a truth. Tho ball waa na empty aa the drawing­ room, the lamps burned dimly, bring the invention In lamp* that do not illuminate.Gilbert went softly up the shallow old ataircaa* to the corrider which rati thelength of the house, and ended at the door of his own snuggery. He reached thia door without meeting any one, went quicklyiuto the room, and locked the door. The oriel-window of thia room commanded tho balcony room, whieb wna repeated in thesouthern freut, between two projectingwings There oonld be no better poat ol observation for the man who had lieen toldto watch tbo garden approach to his wife’srooms. There were matches nnd candles on themantel-piece, but to strike a light would beto make hi* presence known to any one io the balcony room, ao Gilbert waited quiet­ly in the half darkness of a summer night and found what lie wanted easily enough t>y th* sente of touch, There was no moonyet, bnt a few stars were shining faintly in tho ealm gray sky. Til* windows of the balcony room were dark, aud one stoodopen—the one nearoat the iron stair. Gil­ bert noticed this. ‘ She is sitting there in Uie dark,’ he i! Xbought, ’ waiting for him. That dark I room, that open window, look like gnilt. i Why has she not her lamp lighted, andher music or her hooka? No; alie has something else to think «f.' Hi> gnu# were arraigned in artistic orderabov* th* chimney-piece—* cosily oolite- tton, with all tki» latent improvement* msporting guns.

I gave him fair warning. He hae tricked aud in­ sulted me in the foes of that warutag. He has entered my houM an au imposter and CHAPTER XXVI. . < CAUGHT IN THE TOILS. ’ Ten o'clock struck with sweet nnd solemn ;chime from tbo old square tower of tho parish church as Gilbert Sinclair opened jtbe lattice nnd stood by tho opeu window | ot his dressing-room waiting. There was ; not a leaf stirring in the garden, not a ishadow save tho motionless shadows of tho , trees. No light in tho windows of tho bal­ cony room. Tbo stars brightened in tho :clear gray, and in the soft twilight of sum­ mer all things wore dimly defined—notdark, but shadowy. The quarter chimed from tho church tower behind tbo trees yonder, and riillthere was no movement iu tbo garden. Gilbert stood motionless, hid watch divided between tho old Dutch garden with itsgeometrical flower beds nnd stone sun-dail,and tho windows of tho balcony room. As tho sound of tho chnrch clock dwindledslowly into sitenco a light appeared iu tho centre window, a caudle held in u woman's hand, and raised above her head. Gilbertcould but faintly distinguish tho dark figure in tho feeble glimer of that single candle, before figure and light vanished.A signal, evidently, for a minute later a man’s figure appeared from the angle of tho hedge, where it had been hidden inshadow. Aman—tell, strongly built—yes, just tho figure that patient watcher ex­pected—stepped lightly across the garden,carefully keeping to tho narrow gravel­ paths, leaving no tell tale foot-print ou flower bed or box border. He reached tboiron stair, mounted it swiftly, had his foot on the balcony, when Gilbert Sinclair flrod,with tbo unerring aim of a practiced sportsman and the firm bnnd of a man who has mndo up his mind for tho worst.The figure reeled, swayed for a momenton the topmost stop, aud then rolled back ward dowu tho light iron stair, shaking it with tliu force of tho f ill, ami sank in aheap on tho gravel-path below. Gilbert waited, expecting to be thrilled J by a woman's piercing shriek, tho despair-i, ing cry of a guilty a-nl; bnt no such cry ‘ came. All was darkness in tho balcony: loom. He fanced lie saw n figure approachtho window and look ont, bnt whatever t that shape was it vanished before he could ’ verify his doubts.I Ho went over to tho chimney.piece nnd i put nwny lit* gnu as coolly as if the pnr- > poso for which he hud just used it were tho ,r most ordinary business of daily life; bnt , - this mechanical tranquillity had vary littlo . 1 significance. It was rattier the stolidity of ,a sleep-walker than tlio calmness of a | mind that realizes the weight nnd measure , of its nets. Ho went back to tho window.There lay tho figure, huddled in n formless heap as it had fallen, hideously foreshort­ ened from Gilbert's point of sight. Thoopen hnnds clutched the loose gravel. No sound, no light yet in tho balcony room.• Sho docs not know whet bus happened,' said Gilbert, grimly. ‘I had bitter go audtell hor.' Ho unlocked his door nnd went out in tlio corridor. His wife's bedroom openedout of the balcony room. Tho child slept in a smaller room adjoining that. Hewent into tbe balcony room and found itempty, then opoted tho bedroom door and paused on tho threshold, looking in.Impassible to imngitio a more peaceful picture than that which mot tho husband's eyes. A night-laiup shod n faint light overthe white-curtained bed, nn open book an 1 nn extingnisbod candle ou a littlo table by the bedside showed that Constance hadread herself to sleep. Tho door of the inner room stood half open, and Gilbert could seo tho little white crib, atul thesleeping child. Tho Mother's face was hardly less placid in its repose than tbo child's. Gilbert Sinclair felt ns if this world andthis life were one inextricable confusion. Tho anonymous letter had told him whereand when to watch—and tlio writer of that letter had kept faith with him so far, since be had not watched in vain—bnt this spec­tacle of innocent repose, the mother sleep­ ing near tlio child, was hardly iu keeping. Gilbert paused irresolute, nnd then went tot his wife’s bedside and roused her roughly . with his strong hand upon her arm. Tbe dark blue eyes opened suddenly nndj looked nt him full of bewilderment. 1 ‘Gilberll Back to-night? I didn't ox- I pnet you. Why do yon look at mo like1 that ? What has happened ?* < •Can't yon guess? Yun didn’t expect i me. You had mndo your plans according- ily. You 1 ad made au appointment withyour lover.’ i * Gilbert, nro you mad ?' 1 ' He has not disappointed you—ho is here. Get up and cmno and seo him. Quick, lie is waiting.’•Gilbirt, whnt hfivo you been doing? where bnve yon been ? Cahn yourself, for Heaven's sake.*She had risen and put on her slippersnnd dressing-gown, scared by her husband's look nnd the words, not knowing whetherto think him mnd or drunk—recalling witha shudder that other scene in tbo summer­ house, nnd expecting some now violence.Ha would kill hor, perhnps. Sbo trembled a little, behoving herself in tbe power of madman, bnt tried to bo calm. ' Come,’ he snid, grasping her wrist, *1am too much of a gentleman to let yonr lover wait yonder—on the tlire*hold of liis owu house too. Strange that ho shouldtry to sne*k in like a burglar, when he will be master here in a few days.'lie (Lagged her iuto the next room, and to the balcony. 1 Pray don't be so violent. Gilbert. Iwill come any where you picas*,* she said, gravely.From the balcony she saw that prostrate figure at tho foot of tbe stairs, and gavo afaint cry of horror. • Gilbert, what have yon done ?’‘ Mv duty a# a man. I should loathei myulf if I had done lew.’ ■ ' She followed him down the stepe, trem- ■ bling iu every limb, and clung to him as beI knelt by th* motionless figure, aud turned i the face upward to th* faint light of a new • risen moon.A very familiar face, bnt not the oue Gillterl Sinclair expeoto-l to Me. Tbe faceof hia ally, Tames Wyatt, gray with thedull gray of death, bnt not distorted. A mean, false foe* in lifa or death ; bat deathbrought out tho dominant exprMsiou * little mor* forcibly than life had done. • Gilbert, what have yon done ?’ repeat­ed Constance, sobbing, • Murder,’ answered her husband, witli a stolid despair. ‘I hated this fellow badlyenough, bnt I didn’t mean to kill him. I meant to kill Sir Cyprian Davsnante withwhom yon bad au appointment to-night, counting on my absent*.' • Gilbert, what have I ever done that yonshould think me th* vilest of women ? I have never wrong you by one thoughtabout Cyprian Darsnsnt wbieh yon might not know, I have **v*r spok** * word to ‘mm which you might not bear—yon andall th* world. Yotir jealousy of him ha* one knows yet. Go, for God’# sake, thi*moment. ‘And leave yon with n eoipio oa the premises ?—rather cowardly that.’‘ Don't think of mo—it is life or death for yon.. You must go, Gilbert there is nohelp. Go, or you will bo taken aud triedaud hanged,' cried Conitauce, clinging te tho iron rail, trembling, very cold, theground reeling under her feet. . ‘ Yes, (hat's the natural sequence. Fool, (fool, fool I An anonymous, scribbler. (What can have brought him here, and to .the windows of your room? Constance, j whnt does it mean? Doyon know wl y ,this man camp ?' - But Constance could not answer him. Sbo had fallen, fainting to tho iron stair.Gilbert sarried hor back to her room,and laid her on her bod. Sbo would come to her senRos soon enough, no doubt, poorwretch, he thought, hopelessly. Ho hur­ ried back to his victim, intent upon finding somo clew to Wyatt's presence in thatplace to-night- Ho ransacked the dead man's pockets, took ont a bundle of letters, put them in his breast pocket, and lott thegarden by the little gate in the holly hedge.

The Reformers of that constituency have nomi nated him to represent them in the Local Legislation in place of Dr. Harvey. Trvcklayixg on the Pembina Branch of the Canadian Pacific Railroad reached the Red River crossing on Monday, and the City Council of Winnipeg authorized the Mayor to proclaim a civic holiday in honor of the coming of the first train, which car­ ried a number of guests and roilwry offi­ cials. In reply to tho Bavarian uutborites, the Board of Health suggested tbat cremation should bo authorized (1) after a battle ; (2) during epidemics ; (3) for conveyance of re­ mains to distant parts ; (4) whore tho soil is unsdited for burial purposes. The re- ligion^sects who were invited to express their opinion upon the subject, either re­ jected tho idoa altogether or gave unsatis­ factory answers. Ths Stratford Beacon bits tho nail upon the bead when it says :—We notice that the Town Council of Peterborough has de­ termined to petition the Government of Ontario to reduce the number of councillors in that town to one for each ward, and the same question is under disussion in other places. This movement is in the right direction, but it doesn't go far enough. Tho Government ought to consider tho whole subject of mnuicipal representations. No­ body who has watched the doing of munici­ pal councils can fail to have seen that there are altogether too many hands for th* work, and it is a question worth consider­ ing whether tho entire plan of town and municipal government should not bo changed in such a manner as to prevent tho interest; of tho citizens being jeopar­ dized by councillors, many of whom uro utterly ircnpble of conducting their busin­ ess, much les* that of others.” To-Day has boon set apart by tho Ad­ ministration of the Government as a day of general thanksgiving throughout the Do- minion for the bountiful harvest and gen­ eral prosperity, pence and happiness with which wo have been blessed during the P ‘-d year.

(From our regular c-ererpcndcnt ) Hotel dn Louvre,Paris, Nov. 9, 1878. The International Exhibition of 1878 will to-morrow bo a thing of Iho past, when in the evening the doota close, not to reopen for ths'publi*. When the gardens were in all tbeir autumn beauty and it was nut unpleasantly cool in tho covered galleries, it seemed a pity that the closing day was *o near at hand. But sincethen prematnre cold and the sure approach ofwinter have changed tho outward aspect of things wonderfully. Trees that have beentransplanted do not retain their leave* near solong a* others, and there is little romaiuing foliage in the park, and tho gras* and shrubsalone look brilliant among the bloasoink-ssflower beds ; while draughts of cold air assail the visitor inside with bitter jicrsistence.Darkncba shortens the afternoon, the way inwhich the line-art galleries aro arranged mak­ing it quite impossible to see tho picture* wellafter three. Those who proposed that theExhibition should bo kept open all the wintercould not have taken advantage of the general permission to tAke away their goods ; butmany of the stalls in tho American and Britishsections aro being rapidly dismantled. Thecrown jewels,carried off to the Bank on Thura-day evening, were replaced the next day byan order from head-quarters. A strong in­ducement for exhibitors to prolong their stay in the Champ de Mara is the announcementthat itvlhc course of the week the NationalLottery Committee will have to expend four millions ami a quarter. A portion of this sum$30,000 has been handed ovur to managers, tobe spent in the foreign sections.The French Minister* of War and Com­ merce have agreed that the palace. and parkerected in the Champ <le Mara for the Exhibi­tion arc to be preserved. The War Minister will retain the gallery of manual labor nnd thetwo largo machinery galleries as general warehouses tor the army. This space, fifteen acres in extent, will be called the Field of Mauoe-vures. The Minister of Commerce will retaintho Grand Gallery of Honor, with some of its annexes, the Creuzot Pavillion, the Pavillion oftho Spanish Ministry of Public Works, andother buildings, and this space will be devot­ ed to the establishment ef an industrialmuseum. At a meeting of tho lottery manag­er* held on Sunday, under the presidinary of the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, itwas decided to raise the number of tickets totwelve millions. The lots aro to be exhibited in the Palais de I’ Industrie, and it has beenresolved tliat every prize gained shall be de­livered free of octroi and customs duties. ThoLottery Commission has also resolved tbat thesmall prizes shall form a special category, forwhich all tho ticket* shall compete. In thelatter case a duodccagonal wheel will be mod each face being numbered 1 to 12, and thiawheel will indicate tho winning scries, while asix-wheeled decagoual apparatus will then show the winning number—each of tho sixwheel* fvruisbiug oue digit of it. The six­wheeled apparatus will also be used for the minnr prizes, and the winning number wilcompete for each of the twelve <erics. Thodrawings will be public, and, it is calculated, can in this way be got through in eight or tendavs.I’bo Chinese, Hindoo*, Burmese, Javans, Moors, Arabs,and other outlandish climes whohave been employed about the Exhibition are well pleased with the attention and gratuitiesthey have received. Most of them werelodged in the pnrbius of the Ecole Militairc, and tho Commissioners deputed sonic inspec­tors of police to keep a paternal look-out overthem to see that they were not'robbed or mo­ lested when they went out of an evening en­joying themselves hi their own ways. Theseinspectors must have beeu led into queer haunts, nnd have witnessed strange customsin their profejec ; but let that pass. It ioenough to know that many of the exotic visi­ tors have c-vincxl sueh a strung reluctance toreturn to' their own countries that permanentemployment has been found for them in Paris. All the Chinese have b.-en snapped up as cafewaiters, aud two or three of the Hindoos anjArabs have been hired by the manager of the Hippidrmne. One of the Japanese exhibitorsis going to open a tea and coffee house on theBoulevards, amt the attendants arc nil to be people of h<« country. It will certainly havea speedv tuceees if the beverages be good, andif care be taken to hire one or two Frenchwaiters aa fait of Parisian customs. There was a rumor that the Hungarian restaurant,which, thanks to its band of Tziganeso, ac­quired such a rapid celebrity, was going to be­come one of the settled attractions <>f Paris ;but-this is not the case. Since the musicianshave departed it has been discovered that the wines at this wild-lyoking place are stride tondear in prices for Parisian purses, as well aatoo strong in nnality. Visitors in Paris have been enabled to wit­ness a sight peculiary Ereucli,aml indicating adepth of feeling in tbs national character which would doubtless astonish the stranger uhocame only to see tho exhibition a few days ago.All the i habitants of the city seemed to have jiotircd into the ceinctiies to visit, accordingto a cmtoin hundreds of year* old, the tomb*of departed relation* nnd frit-nds. In some ofthe great burial-grounds, such as Perc laChaise, Momnartre, ami Mont Putnawe, thecrowd* were so great that cirenlntion was ex ■tremriy difficult. This is an o>-c33ion on which Parisians exhibit a peculiar form of religionwhich is u striking as it is ineomprehensibloto the foreigner. After the pilgrim has laid a bouquet of flowers on the grave nf bis rela­tions and friends he proceeds to the tomb ofan admired politician or (met, according to hisliterary taste, and there pay* a tribute to thedeccasrd l»y placing on the spot where his re­mains lie a crown of itnmnrtallet. It is per­ haps the most unpleasant featnre of tbi*national celebration that it is frequently con­verted into a political demonstration. For example, this year the tomb* of M.Thier* andM. lUspail were those which most attractedthe visitors to Pere 1* Chaise, and the inscrip­ tions on some of the crowns wcru of an offen­sively parly character. Notwithstanding theimmense crowds, however, there was nothing of the nature of disorder in the proceedings.As a whole the French jicoplo must bo wellsatisfied with the result of their world’s fair, they have bronght together an infinite varietyof the works of all nations, of high artisticmerit ami marvellous akill of workmanship ; they have brought to their city thousand* offoreigner* of all countries, and nave shown inthemselves a powur of resource aud trade revi- val after duaatrou* troubles of a most marvelIons description; and. aa a grand climax totheir work have inaugerated a state lottery ofeoloisal proportions, tor which »iue million*of tickets have been sold. If the teaching which the vast variety of artCroducts ot all nation* here brought together e Ixit taken advantage of in a proper mannerfor tho higher artistic education of the world,the result will have been of infinite importance, let ti« hope, for jnditical as well as social re­form. A* a show it has manifestly been ofthe highest ptMsibh importance. Mt us hope that the results of the teaching will be equal­ly satisfactory in the general civilization ot theworld. U d ,.

On motion of Mr. Buchanan, seconded by Mr. Walley, Mr. Miller was allowed taretain the frame building he has erectol contrary to by-law, on condition that In enter info agreement with th* Mavar toremove the name in the spring of 1879, Mr. James Waterhouse was here heard respecting a wrong assessment of his millproperty.

Notwithstanding the facMhat but three we«k* have elapsed since the greater portion of tho extensiv* carriage work* of Mr. George Bailey were destroyed by fire, we are pleased to see that they have again beeu rebuilt, aud all ready for occupation. The main building is erected on a larger scale than the old one, and furnishes ample space for tho show room, paint and trimming shop. Wo had tho pleasure oneday this week of bring shown through th*several departments, ami although a greatnumber of buggies, cutter*, sleighs, etc., weredestroyed by the fire, we were suqirised atseeing such an immense stock as he has atpresent on hand, there being no les* than fifty-live first-class cutters and sleighs, and alarge nnmber of buggies, waggons, etc., in hisnew *ud|coromodiou* show room, all of whichwere-saved from the flames, and w hicb he willsell at the very lowest possible prices. Amongthe latest novelties in his line we noticed aLadies’ Phinton,” manufactured for onr townsman, Mr. P. J. Brown, at a cost of $250.It is a novelty in itself, and no cairiage cau bemore deservedly jiopular among the ladies than this style of phaeton, aud none certainlyfurnishes better or more convenient facilitiesfor pleasure drives. Mr. Bailey is now looking hopefully forward to the coining scasou’s trade,and speculating ss to its demands, and is nowreadv for their fulfilment, and fully prepared to offer to customer! the very latest styles inhis line, an insjicction of which will well repayintending purchasers. He also supplies wood­ work for buggies and cutters ready for ironingand painting. More than double the numberot hands are employed in this establishment than in any other of its kind in the county,each department being under the supervisionof compete it and efficient workmen, and all work fully guaranteed to every purchaser.Our limit d space forbids even a fair descrip­tion of th : business which is being carried on,aud will only state in closing that any one inneed of a first class buggy,cutter, sleigh, wag­gon,or anything else in hi* line, should not failto give Mr. Bailey a call. A Woman’s Logic. It is useless to take meJ:cine. I shall bebelter tomorrow. Beaides,! need the money to get that lovely new hat.

Probe-I Jy unpeople, a* a nation, consume n»nr«poultry «nd eggs than Americans. Indeed, the quantity of eggs and fowls Cunsnmo<l in our large cities i* i-uormons, amountingevery year to millions of dollars in value. The trade in poultry and their products isiu fact one of oqr largest internal commer­ cial interests. • I will not trouble with figures or census returns, for one wouldthen bo 1. st in the vastness of the business wbiyh seems almost incredibly large, but wlijah nevertheless, is a matter of indubit­ able reality.Resides lbs large numbers of poultry raised for the market, whnt would anAthelican country home be without its chickens? As soon os the farmer’s or lab­orer’! ehOdren are old enough to know a chicken when they see it, so soon does their interest begin with regard to their prating,cackling pete, and they soon want to bo busy with littla chicks—feeding or protcct- ing tbem; nor do they think it any thinglaborinns, but take delight in driving away the dog or cat, carrying them scraps fromthe table,and otherwise making themselvesuseful. The labor performed iu families by venog people this way, if nil added to- pether, would, like the value of the stock,prove to be immense. If not done by ■' these, much of it would not be done at al),ns-men are generally employed at harderwork qn the farm. Much, indeed, of the gicut amount of poultry is an accumulation of wealth by the farmer's wives and chil­dren. Nothing^on n fqrm brings more pleasure . than tin peuhry when well eared for. Toomany look open poultry-raining ns a lot­ tery ; they say it’s all in luck. No, it is inmanagement; even the dreaded grapes hasno ntt-ro terrors for those who can extract the vife worm that causes such distressingnunoyaneepknd it is easily done, when one has s;en the operation performed. Where hens have a good run, they cost but littleto'keep during the summer, nnd supply many a good morsel. This is ao often done, that it la sometimes forgotten or taken as amatter of course; but let the eggs and chickens used for one year in a country home, be taken into account, nnd ouo isastonished at the quantity. In summer when the farmer's wife is too busy to cookfresh, tough meat, she flies to the egg bas­ket'and quickly makes up a good meal with fresh-laid efcgs, but often forgets th?qunntity-used in tLi* way. The number of chickens' used in some families during a year is quite large. Our chicken pet-pie isnow considered a nations! dish, nnd truly it deserves to ba so. Either boiled, roasted, or served np in any other way. chickensare toothsome nnd haudy, until the one- y« Ir old fowl makes n good stow or pot-pie.Some prefer a Yowl of that age to a youngchicken, as the flesh is firmer on the bones and is of n rich, full flavor. Often, too, the farm situated far from a market, andthen, a chicken comes very handy to a meat-uuugry hard-working family. Inlialvestieg or busy times, when both horses and men are too tired to go far to market, what is more agreeable than anicely cooked chicken. — Henry Hale't Hural New Yorker. Third.

There need be no finalfattening period a* in the case with market steers, because they are carried forward with good appetite and flesh from tho be­ginning, and with them food will produce its best results.

Breeding;vs. Buying Cattle. True economy on the farm docs not differmaterially from the true political enonomyof a nation. The most prosperous nationsprtxtoae at a homo-all that their resources will pcttnrt, andsell all the surplus their industrycan produce ; or; in the other words, theybuy only what they must, and sell all they can. So with the fanner, he should study hisresources, and purchase only such tniugs nshe, cannot produce so cheaply as come. Allfarming operations must now bo carried on with • small margin of profit; and he who docsnot study closely his expenditures, and theprMaot to be expected from them, will find ail labor bring only disapointment and loss. 4Tho beef producer finds the price of hiseattle, finished for market, but little morethan the cost of food and attendance in grow, ingthem. He rtlle’ principally upon, thepurchase of store cattle for feeding, "because,"hi raya, “ I could not afford to raise steer* for that I pay ’’ This opinion is usu ally basedsimply <<n the prices per bead he .pays in themaiket, and pet upon the quality uf animals. The considerations in fsvor of home-breed­ing am many. The mere price paid for theyoung cattle cannot decide it. The capacityof the digestive system to digest and aasimilate food, together with the form and thriftycondition of the anima), most all be taken in­to account ia determining the real feeding value of * two or three year old steer, Lcau'steers, that have made a very slow growth upor two and a half years, will requiredouble the amount of food; to put on 100v sun* bve weight that these do that he*been thrifty, good feeders from calfhood. Itnot inifrequeutly oust* the whole value on a lean, pepr^y-kept steer te put it in conditionfor the maskut. Such steers are dear at anyprice, Iti* owing to the purchase of many such young cattle by feeder* that the profitsare so often small, or wholly wanting. Theseyoung cattle have been kent upon food so de­ ficient in quantity aodqa Bty, that the digesttive system has remained undeveloped, andthis =*lt be developed by the new feeder1 w fine ttee steers ean be gotten into a growing .viAfeitenuM^sonflition, But that stunt from14.party feeding can never be fvUy over- n who provide a warm stable for cornfriable*nd profitable winter feeding, find*d fficnlty in tenting wild steen which have■**» raised without handling and withoutshelter.
