DOGs VS.. SHEEP.

. q
To the Editor of the Union and American:
We may get dog law one ofthese days;
meantime let sheep-growers help them
selves. Post your lands and make your
neighbors believe you are in earnest. Shoot
all stray dogs, and use strychnine iberasly,
whenever sheep is killed or dogs get too
plenty. Limit your employees to one dog
to q family. They may grumble at first,
but viii soon thank you for it; or if they
don't yield the point, waive it and use more
stryehniDe. Poison Is the great weapon
against dogs. 1t is quiet and sure, and
doesn't kill any that have not taste for
dead sbeer--a dangerous fondness that
easily shades into the habit of killing
ITEM. Buy it away from home; tie up
your own dogs Ito prevent their eating
sheep as well as their getting kiiied), and
put it out quietly.
Out of q flock Of Thousand, Il have lost
by dogs just -four in ten months. In that
time have poisoned some twenty five dogs,
only one of which (my own, by-the-by,)
was worth anything. In five years. expe-
rience we never once failed to stop The
killing by using poison, spite OF the super
stition that sheep-killing dog never re-
turns to eat his victims. . The great secret
is to change the sheep to fresh pasture as
soon as any are killed, leaving the dead
ones, well poisoned, where they died..

RYEAsAPaSTURE CROP.

The season is unusually late, and though
we may soon expect sudden and severe
cold weather, yet there are many SECTIONS
where it is not too late to SOW a field of rye
for early pasture, and to be sfGerward turn
ed in a fertilizing agent. Rye derives its
special advantage from the fact that it will
grow on many soils which will not pro-
duce clover, and that growing through the
winter it will afford a good pasturage
long before the grasses have pat forth their
new and tender sprouts. Every farmer
knows the advantage of an early green
food, t only as a change for his stock
from the dry hay and grain Of winter, but
also as a saving to him of that species Of
of food, Thus be will have more hay and
grain for sale. The cost of seed, cHltivaiUg
and sowing one acre Of rye canhot be over
s per acre, aud its value is much greater.
There is 10 part of our country which
pays out so much cash for hay as
the South, and TO them a few
acres sown in rye this fall would bs a great
saving of money, while at the same time
they would be taking step toward reno
waiting their exhausted lands. In Europe
rye is looked upon as one of the best soiling
crops, and of especial value on lanes which
are light and sandy, or liable TO wash. No
one would, Of course, compare l. with
clover on soils where that plaas viii grow,
but it has more rapid growth, and pas
turage crop can be gotten from 1t much
earlier than from the clover.
We have not alluded to the grain which
may be gathered if the rye is allowed to
grow to maturity rather than being plowed
under. We have seen many farmers who,
In early spring, psstured OF their rye fields,
and than upon emitting and threshiug re-
ceived thirty or more bushels of grain to
