Thrice did she thus, and then sank bach

pleased with his wife's accomplishment. rs
he has to rise early and Is glad to escape
the cost Of an alarm. clock. He has, how.
ever, been much troubled In mind. by the
recollection of an old saying Of his grand.
mother, "that the Growing of hen indicn'
ted had luck. unless her head was at once
cut off," He has, however, been induced
TO defer his wife s dccnpitution for while
The Richmond paper vouchcs for the truth
of the incident, and accounts for the pecu'
llariiy of the lady by the fact that during
tho year preceding her birth n large Shan.
gllia rooster was confined in a hen.coop
Just under her mothers window. TIM

not DO known to farmers in general tlnt Il
is a common practice in some Of the tota-
to growing districts to turn focks OF sheep
into the potato fields for tho purpose Of cat.
ing down the weeds. The sheep will not
touch a potato vine. This pasturing OF
sheep is very advantageous when the crop
Is q late planted one, 30 that the hoeing
cannot be completed until the haying is tin-
ished. AZ the growing SEASON It Is the
planters aim to keep down tho grass and
weeds so that they may be covered with

arc used. Pusturing with sheep will attain
this object. Early planted crops, tho c',lti-
walton Of which Is completed In the first
