The largest profit in sheep hus bandry ariEcs from Iho natural in cnase in nutnberg, and the farmer who understands his business and gives hie flock proper attention can double it annually. This, in itself, should be sufficient to pay the cost of keeping both parent and off spring, leaving the wool of the former as profit. But if a man fails to raise the lambs and loses some of his old 6hecp by disease in winter and dogs or otherwise in summer, be will find bheep husbandry a very poor business. First of all, sheep in all cold countries must have warm sheds for protection from snow and rain, and then a generous supply of food. Begin early in win ter to give a Pinall quantity of grain daily; for it is much easier and more economical to keep tlio ani mals in good heart than to bring them up after they have once run down. The breeding one?, in par ticular, should receive extra care, if the farmer desires extra fine lambs, which will conic forward rapidly and be ready for market early in the season. The old, and, wc fear, far too prevalent idea that sheep will do well enough through winter on nothing but wheat or oat straw, and occasionally a feed of hay, must be abandoned in these days of de pressed markets, and when nothing but the very best will command remunerative prices. If the farmer desires to limit his flock to a speci fied number, and sell off the lambs as soon as they are ready for the butcher, it is even more important that they be brought forward rap idly, and to a larger size, than if kept fcr increasing the flock. Formerly the idea prevailed that sheep could be raised with greater profit in regions not well adapted to the growing of grain, as they could get a living in summer upon rough, hilly land that could not be plowed and cultivated; and while this is 6till true in part, there are thous ands of farmers possessing the best of grain farms, who find that raising sheep is more profitable than keep ing their laud constantly under the plow, or, perhaps wc should say, who find mixed husbandry, consist ing of part grain and part stock, the best system ; for by pasturing the sheep upon the laud it can be made rich and put in better condiliou for raising grain, and at less expense, than by depending upon the stables and barnyards for fertilizing ma terials. There can scarcely be a doubt in rcgai d to the profitableness of sheep husbandry in the older States as well as in the new ; but the farmer hi the former must reckon upon some items which the latter will naturally leave out. For instance, the enrich ing of the land pastured by sheep is quite an item in the older States, where the soil has been considera bly worn and is unfertile through long-continued cultivation and re moval of crops; and iu many cases this alone might be considered a fair profit ou the capital required to purchase a few hundred head of fhcep. Sheep also feed closer and cat many kinds of plants that are rejected by cows, and consequently arc better adapted to ston-, rocky, uneven and not very fertile lands than other and larger kinds of stock. "Wool, mutton and spring lambs arc always in demand, and the profits to bo derived from their production depend as much, if not wore, upon the skill of the producer as upon the price they fetch in market. It is seldom, however, that the farmer knows exactly how much any crop costs, as he keeps no account with his stock or farm, but merely guesses that this or that crop is profitable or the contrary, with out positively knowing the fact. Our best reason for believing that the raibiug of sheep is a profitable brauch of farming in the older States is that a large proportion of the most careiul and intelligent of our farmers continue to keep up their flocks, no matter how low the price of wool or mutton. "When asked why they do it, the reply is: "Because wc find sheep husbandry as profitable as any other branch of farming." 2t. T. Sun. ISoilrond. "Wc clip the following from the David City licpublican of the 24th ultimo: A petition was presented to the County Commissioners, on Monday, from Oak Creek; Spurck aud Rich ardson precincts, asking that an election be called in the three pre cincts named, to vote bonds to aid iu the construction of the O. & R. V. It. R. from Seward to Brainard. Remonstrances were afterward pre sented, from Oak Creek and Spurck precincts, signed by a majority of tho voters-of each of the precincts. An election was granted in Rich ardson precinct. The County Clerk has been noti fied that the 33 miles of railroad in this county has been assessed by the State Board of Equalization at $123, 651, cr $3,747 per mile. Thus, for the $119,000 in bonds, voted away by the count-, it has already receiv ed from tho company to whom the bonds were given, $123,651 in prop erly, to say nothiug of the addition al increase of private property which Las floated into the county in con sequence of the building of the railroad. It pays to have a railroad. Politeness tit Home. The boy or giil, the young man or woman, the husbaud or the wife, who at home is kind, courteous and considerate to the inmates of the household, will not be wanting iu true politeness and respect, when away from home, and surrounded by those who expect and demand the respect and courtesy which now-a-days is oftentimes sadly wanting, espcci-iUy iu our young people. The habit of truo politeness is a very politic one, and one which ev ery young man, who will owe his success, iu a measure, to his popu larity, ought to carefully cultivate. It is better to have the friendship of even a dog, than to have him for an enemy. As for a watch-dog in a front yard, a young man cannot be too friendly with him. No one loses one tithe of inde pendence or respect, by being polite to everybody. Politeness costs nothing, while impoliteness is generally an expen sive indulgence, and not only causes the persou making use of iVpccun iary and social loss, but generates feelings in the object of disrespect, which years will uot eradicate. Be polite and kiud at home. If a son or daughter, always spoak re spectfully of your parents, as well as to them, and remember that the servant in the family has feelings which may bo wounded, as well as you yourself. If a husband, bear in mind that one harsh word or frown, to the wife you promised to comfort, will often sadly linger in her mem ory, while you do uot give it a passing thought. If a wire, recol lect that your husband has many cares and troubles; that he can't always wear a happy smile, and be gay and cheerful, and if he should ever be harsh and unkind, do you be amiable and comforting; any other course will change occasional unhappiucss into prolonged misery. If a parent, teach your children po liteness at home, and when they leave your roof, their conduct in that respect, will not bo a reproach to you, but a credit and a satisfac tion. Stingy UZcn. Bob Ingersoll says: "Idcspisoa stingy man. I don't sec how it is possible for a man to die worth fifty millions of dollars, or ten millions of dollars, in a city full of want, when he meets almost every day tho withered hand of beggary and the white lips of famine. How a man can withstand all that, and hold in the clutch of his hand twenty or thirty millions of dollars, is past my comprehension. I do not see how ho can do it. I should not think he could do it any more than he could keep a pile of lumber when hun dreds and thousands were drown ing in tho sea. Do you know I have known men who would trust their wives with their hearts and their honor, but not with their pocket books not with a dollar. "When I sec a man of that kind, I always think he knows which is most valu able. Think of making your wife a beggar! Think of her asking you every day for a dollar or two dol lars, or to humbly beg for fifty cents. ""What did you do with that dollar I gave you ?" Think of having a wife that is afraid of you I "What kind of children do you ex pect to have with a beggar and a coward for a mother? Oh, I tell you if you have got but a dollar in the world, and you have to spend it, spend it like a king; spend it as though it were a dry leaf and yon the owner of unbounded forests. That's the way to spend it. I had rather be a beggar and spend my last dollar like a king, than to bo a king and spend my money like a beggar. If it's got to go, let it go. Get the best you can yourself. "When you U6cd to go courting, how nice you looked I Ah, your eyes were bright, your step was light, and you just'put on the very best you could. Do you know, that it is insufferable egotism in you to suppose that a woman is going to love you always, looking as bad as you can? Think of it! Any woman on earth will be truo to you forever when you do your level best. The "Intelligent Jury V Ver dict. The verdict is n surprise to nearly all familiar with the circumstances of the murder who have heard or read the testimony of Dufrand and Brown. The positive statement that Olive shot one of the victims him self and superintended the hanging of both, one dead and one alive, is direct. Olive and his associates were either guilty of murder in tho first degree or innoccut. If the fo r mer they should pay tho penal ty, which is death; and if tho latter they should go free. The murder was cold-blooded; it was cool and deliberate; it was premeditated; and the evidence showing that Olive paid money to Sheriff Gillen after the prisoners had been taken from him shows but too plainly that the plot was well laid and well executed. Beatrice Express. SURPniSED AXD INDIGNANT. "We have yet to hear the first man speak in defence of the action of the jury in either of the Olive cases. Everybody is surprised and indig nant. If ever men were proven guilty, they were Hastings 2fe-braskan. There is .a good deal of pith and point iu the comment of the African preacher on the text, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Said he, "I have never known a church to die 'cause it gave too much? Doy don't die dat way. Bredrcn, has any of you knowed a church to die 'cause it gave too much ? If you do, just let me know, and I'll climb by de sad light of the moon to its moss covered roof, and I'll stand and lift my hands to heaven and say, 'Blessed am dc dead dat die in de Lord.'" "When you have seen a woman twisting up her back hair and hold ing twenty-three hair-pins in her mouth while she tells a neighbor on the other side of the street how to make strawberry short-cake so the man can't find tho strawberry, tho secret of Demoslhcnes's successful training with tho pebbles is no long er a mystery. "In tho sentence, 'John strikes "William " remarked a school teacher, "what is the object of strikes?" "Higher wages and shorter runs," replied the intelligent pupil. John Brougham, speaking the othc;- day of the great Macrcady, said : "His voice was like broken china clinking iu the bottom ot a dry well." A lady being abont to marry a email man, was told he was a bad fellow. ""Well," said she, "if he's bad, there's one comfort, there's very little of him." Land is cheap in Nebraska.
