The iui:'Pi:t!'iii.i' exhibition of
sheep, wool and woo! prod nets meet s
at Philadelphia till month. Coimnis
s'.oncr Le Due has issued a call to till
those in this country who aro hit fron
ted in these industries to attend this
exhibition. II will he given in the
main building of the centennial
ground during the progress of the
l'ennsyh aui.i t Ue fair, and is one of
the most wise and practical move
ments made hy our agriculturists and
manulacturers for many years Kvcii
the sheep growers and wool manu
facturers themselves have an inade
quate knowledge of the extent to
which their business has developed
since the close of the war throughout
the country, and the general public
has no concept ion of it.
Xo industry among us, probably,
has made more steady advance in the
quality of its work than wool manu
facturing. Twenty years ago no wise
householder would buy American
dress goods, cloths or carpets. Now,
if he is wise, he buys them avowedly
as American make, at first cost ; for
the chances are that he will buy the
same goods at any rate, at an addi
tional price, as I'Ycnch, Scotch or En
glish. In the durability of his goods
the American wool u nnufactuivr is
now usually able to cope with his
Scotch or French rival, lint there
are certain secrets of coloring and
softness of texture which he has yet
to learn. The same remark is true of
our silk manufacturers. It is pro
posed to invite foreign competition
to this exhibition. The lesson will
l.e a useful one, we hope, to our mak
ers of merinos and cheviots? Interna
tional exhibitions. have a two-edged
value; they are as useful in teaching
us what we cannot do as in showing
other nations what, wc can do.
It is the purpose of .Mr. Lc Due and
his colleagues in this convention to
introduce to the notice of the mass of
American sheep breeders the finer
breeds of sheep, both of those profita
ble for the market and for wool;
'I here is absolutely no reason why
the market in New York and Phila
delphia should not be supplied with
as good homegrown mutton as the
London, provided the proper grades
of sheep could be introduced to the
proper pasturage and climate in this
country.
Xew Mexico can furnish, and will
furnish at this exhibition the largest
profits, we believe from sheep grow
ing, which, even when carried on un
intelligeutly it is profitable. The ig
norant farmer in' th Alleghany
mountains and herder in Texas who
cant read the county papar, who. be
gins by earning a sheep or two as by
as hard work as did Jacob, who in
creased their flock and managed them
as lie did, by rules gained solely out
of their own shrewd observations,
and not from books, and end by pos
sess'lig wealth that would have put
Hint successful and sharp dealing
sheapherd of oi l, far in the back
ground. Sheep husbandry, when backed by
intelligence, skill and-lar,'c capital, is,
probably as certain a road to compe
tency, and even fort une as this road
affords, it is so important in indus
try that it is time its capabilities and
resources were honestly and fully- set
forth to the public, as vill now be
done.
Tit b id-: is a quiet little village in the
north part of Italy named Moiitanaro
The people are poor and could nt
raise money to replace the altar in the
church which was dilapidated and
generally used up. Sunday after
Sunday the priest passed around the
hat in his congregation lor money to
replace the altar and it came back em
pty, because the people hud no money
Finally, abmit a month ago, the priest
appeared in the place with a pair of
shears nd laid them on the altar. He
then applied to the women to raise
the money; asked all who were will
ing to sacrifice their hair loi so laudi
ble a purpose to come forward and be
shorn. Forty-seven noble women re
sponded to the appeal, and went up
and laid their heads on the block and
allowed their beautiful hair to be cut
oil from the sale of which enough
money was received to replace the
old altar with a new one. Speaking
of this the humorous editor of the
Xew York Times suggest . that the
di aeons in American churches, in
stead of passing their pluto for con
tributions, carry around large baskets
and ask the women of the church to
drop into it their back hair, which
could easily be done without the use
ofhheats. In this way a church debt
could be paid off. Ex.
