Lower Price* for Buck l.amhK
Ten of our leading buyers of
and dealers in sheep in Now
York have issued the following
circular: We, the undersigned,
who are large purchasers of Can
ada and Western lambs, would
respectfully submit the following
suggestions, wnich, if adhered
to, will oe of mutual benefit to all
concerned. The parlies to whom
we sell our dressed lambs have
gradually become averse to buck
lambs, and now take a decided
stand against them, and wajit all
ewes and wethers. They' will
not handle buck lambs, unless we
make a concession in the price of
two cents per pound, dressed
weight. This difficulty can be
overcome if all persons raising
lambs for market will castralo
their buck lambs. We would
suggest that all farmers castrate
their buck lambs this year,, and
hereby give notice that we phall
make adifTerenco of from seventy
five conts, to one dollar per,head
in price between buck lambsV and
owe and wether lambs, same age
and quality, as buck lambs have
to be sold in our market for two
cents per pound, dressed weight,
lower than ewe and wether
lambs, same quality.? Natioval

I am now comfortably soated at

As I arrived in Pittsburg about
11 p. m. Thursday night, I wit
nessed the destruction of two six
story business houses. The loss
was several hundred thousand
collars. The scene was awfully
sublime. As the firemen poured
vast quantities of water on the
burning buildings the telegraph
wires became the most gorgeous
laces and fringes. Tho front
of the buildings and trees in the
vicinity became covered with
coat of glittering ice, which
blended with the falling snow.
The rising sparks, the dark
smoke and great columns of
steam rising from the burning
mass, was a magnificent sight.
I feel sorry to see such loss of
property.

and raised $52 for missions; had

Dr. J. W. Hartigan, of tho
University, was recently honored
by being elected a Foundation
Fellow of The Society of Science
Letters and Art of London. The
most eminent men of Europe,
such as Pasteur, are members
of this Society. The Doctor was
also, a few days ago, elected a
member of the Association of
American Anatomists which is

Professor Morse, of Salem,
Mass., thinks ho has solved the
problem of house-heating. Ho
has built a house all of whose
rooms face the south, nearly all of
the front being glass. By means
of reflectors the whole house can
bo heated on sunny days with
sunshine alone. At night and on
cloudy days fires are built. A
passageway affording entrance
to all the rooms runs along the
northern side of ihe house, at
the same time serving tho pur
pose of protecting the rooms
from the cold northern breezes. ?
Ordinary horse-radish, eaten at

have gone. It can do no harm to
