The residence of the president of the United States ought to be worthy of tbe office. The present white house is equal to all the requirements of such a residence, so far as it goes. ' It is a simple and dignified building, whose beauty is a constant delight to appre ciative persons. It was conceived and carried out by the architect who planned it in the proper spirit, but it is i.ot large enough for the uses to which it is necessarily put. The country and the city of Washington have grown, and the president's house have not grown with them. A large part of it is given up to the business offices of the presi dent, his private secretary, and his clerks, and the president's family aire deprived of the use of another large part of the lower floor of the house be cause it is necessarily on public view most of the time. The family is there fore cramped for proper accommo dations, and there art no rooms for the entertainment of guests. Moreover, tbe house is so badly arranged as to entrances, exits, and hallways that a state reception there is always an un comfortable and dangerous jam, while many an invited guest, and many offi cers who attend certain functions under orders, have been made seriously ill be cause thev have been compelled to stand for hours in cold or stormy weath' er until they could gain admittance throuirh. the single door that can be usod for the purpose. The deficiencies of the white house are so thoroughly recognized in Wash' ington that for many years efforts have been making to secure worth ier accommodations for the president. Some of these efforts have been in the wrong direction, because they nave contemplated other buildings, foreign to the intent and character of the white ouse, within the same grounds. Other efforts still are attempts of speculators to move the site of the mansion to the hills north of the city. The white house, with all its charms and memories, should be preserved, aud it should remain on its present beau tiful and historic site, its fine grounds unencumberd by other structures. In furtherance of this idea, a plan pre pared bv Air. Artnur j. union snows conclusively that the white house can be made, not only abundantly spacious, but even improved, while its architec tural features will be at the same time preserved. Harper's Weekly. FROZEN MUTTON. Preparation of tbe Mew Zealand Product for tbe Market. The reason why Argentine mutton generally is of inferior price to that of New Zealand has a three-fold explana tion. In the first place New Zealand possesses to-day a mutton-producing breed superior to that known in the Plate. In the second, the New Zealand er feeds his stock during the winter time with extra forage, while in the Ar gentine the sheep are allowed to graze upon the same bare pom pa during t he dead season. The iesult of this is that he New Zealarulcr produces an even. well-grown carcass, while there is sen home from the Plate one upon which hasty covering of fat has been put dur ng the spring months of the year. The difference between the two carcasses will readily be noted by anyone who pays a visit to the cattle market. Third- ly, the freezer in New Zealand freezes the mutton on account of the breeder and in the Ai.,entine the freezer buy from the breeder. The disadvantage of t he latter system, so long as the breeder has no knowledge of the requirements of the market, is apparent. The New Zealand breeder selects his wether with care, rejecting any which will give un inferior weight, or which are In sufficiently fattened for the butcher. He remits 1hem in small droves to the freezing establishments, and takos every care that they shall arrive In per fect order. The Argentine breeder, on the other band, makes a contract with the representative of the freezer to sell given number; and the latter binds himself to remove themwlthinacertaln date. N. Y. Ledger. PASSING OF THE WATCHDOG. Paaeocks Bnpplantlng Towaer as tha Household Pro Sector. "The place of a watchdog on tbe farm or country plaoe," aaid State's Attorney McGuire the other day, in making some observations about naad dogs, report the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, "might be very well taken by peacocka and puinea, fowla. I long since adopted pea cocka alone to guard my place, and nothing can come around the premises night or tray without causing an alarm from them. They are more watchful than any dog I ever owned. My experi ence with guineas ha not bee a so eat tensive, but I believe they are also sure to give an alarm, or rather a good many alarm, if any at range man or least aftaould venture near them by night or day. Perhaps the days of the watchdog would be numbered if it were generally known how well peacocks and guinea fowla would tsUce bis place. Then, orrtaJnly, with fewer dogs there would not be so many caaee of hydro- phobia." Tbe stataTuent of Mr. McGuire aa to the watchfulness of praoncks was borne out by numerous Howard county farm era, among tliet nunibrr being County CotniitlMiksner Il, Donwy and Smith, and Mr. J a men l Hobba, who siiwriti tend the farming o-rat'uin of Ken ator Gorman.
