Except an occasional remark, or an
extract from exchanges, ortrom books,
we have not often referred to the i'm
portanco Of growing roots, Us q pro
fitable branch Of farming, We have
had the topic in mind, however, and
we wish just to say, that we regard
them of great and increasing value.
We have space at this moment, only
to add a few reasons why we think So;
1. The more leading crops, as corn,
wheat, &c., are exhausting the soil Of
the elements which produce them
But the soil may produce abundant
crops Of roots, because the clements
which produce them may yet be
found in it. As an important aid in
a good rotation Of crops, we would
recommend roots.
2. AS an aid in deep culture, roots
are valuable. To secure the best
crops, deep blowing and good manu-
ring are deemed indispensable f; be,
sides, roots 'themselys penetrate and
soften the soil deeper than most other
crops.
3. They furnish the means Of Sc
curing the largest return from the
smallest amount of land. BY careful
culture, a mar may keep a COW all
winter on the product Of a very small
plat of ground, We will not quote
any great figures here, lest we should
be suspected Of "drawiDg the long
bow" Jut those who have tried it
know what we say is true.
4. Roots furnish the only cheap
mode Of supplying healthy green food
to stock during the winter, and cspe-
cially in the spring till the pastures
are good. Our winters are long,
When spring is coming the stock
should not be- turned on the meadows,
for that ruins the meadows nor on
the pastures, for it hurts the pastures.
Besides, it hurts the stock, for it spoils
their appetite for hay, while it gives
the animals no satisfying nutrimont.
Now what shall help us out Of the
d~ificultyl We answer, a good sup
ply of roots. Ruta Daga and Mango.
Wurtzel, and other similar products.
are just the thing. Cows and ewes
need them most of all.--D.

The Philosophy OF Sheep wash
ing.

The "philosophy" of a thing is the
reason why it is so. One who under
stands why a thing is so, will be like
ly to do the work connected Sith it
better than if he were ignoraTAjaf its
theory. Now, in regard to We e
sheer, many persons suppose that the
water acts simply to dissolve the dirt
in the fleece and byit mechanical &C
ton to separate it from the h6re,-
This it does, to be sure, and this
would be a sufficient reason for wash
ing the sheep, if the water did moth
ing else. But it is really the smallest
part ofwhat good sheep-washngdo does.
You have, perhaps, noticed on the
finer wooded sheep, especially, a yell
low oxidation near the skin. You
will see it nearly all over good sheep,
but most OF the breast and shoulders.
Now this is a secretion from the glands
of the skin, and serves, it issupposed
az important purpose in refining the
fibre and in protecting the animal
But the fact about it which has most
to do with sheep-washing is the tol-
lowing: This yellow gum, called
"yolk," from its resemblance to the
yolk Of an egg, is largely composed
of potash and oil. 1t is, in short, q
sort of naturally formed soap, which,
when the sheep is plunged in the wa
ter, is dissolved and acts as a power
ful cleanser of the whole fleece. 1t
is as if fine soft soap had been init
mately mixed with the fleece down
TO the very skin just before washing
the sheep, The owner Of sheep who
keeps this fact in mind, will see the
importance Of several things, which
we will mention. J.. He will do well
TO wet his sheep and let them stand a
little while before he washes them
thoroughly. This will allow the soap
of the yolk 10 act freely. 2. Ii he
can wash his sheep in clear soft water
this will be better than hard water.--
8. lie will find it good for this, as
we'll as for other reasons, to wait till
the weather and water are mild, for the
soap acts better thus than if the wa.
ter is very cold. 4. lie will see the
importance of sheltering the hockl
from long and severe rains. These
dissolve the yolk and lower the quail
of the wool, besides chilling and
weakening the sheep Themselves
