Sheep on Poor Farms.

The impression is very prevalent that
sheep upon pastures bite the grass so very
close that they are therefore of injury to
the field, but it is suggested that they can
only bite close where the pasture is short,
and the pasture is short only on farm
that has been too much exhausted, and
that in such cases there will be found an
abundance of weeds, briars and brush in
the fence corners, and sheep are the very
best means by which these pets can be er-
adicated. The Anaeic0p AgsIcatttuaist re-
commends, under such circumstances, that
a farmer who has $50 or upwards in cash
Cor credit for it, and then let him borrow
, the amount, if he has to pay one per cent.
month for the use of it, invest it in as
many ewes, not older than three years, as
you can get for that money. Put them in
the summer in such field as we have de-
scribed, and give them, in addition to
what they pick up, pint of wheat bran
and oat meal daily, with free access to
water and salt.
They will first ego for" the briars, and
clean them out; every portion of that field
viii be trodden over and over again, and
the weeds will have no chance. Fold them
on that field during winter, and carry to
them feed sufficient to keep them thriving.
Get the use of good buck in season
Southdown would be preferable, and in
the spring, if you have luck, Chat means if
you give them proper attention, and feed
regularity you will raise more lambs than
: you have ewes. The money will be more
than doubld, and the wool and manure
viii pay for their feed and interest. In
the spring you may put that field in corn
with the certainty of getting fifty per cent
increase ofcrop.

THE EXCELLENT AND THE WRETcHED

among the trees or is washed away down a
stream of water. He crops yearafter year,
returning no equivalent for the fertility
drawn from the soil on which his crops
have grown, selling everything grown
which it is possible to market. He saves
money, and is an excellent man, but from

Facts in Turkey-Breeding.

10 There is nothing like facts to confirm a
: theory. IF it were really believed that
good selection and good feed would in
crease the average size of turkeys third,
it would not be difficult to get Intelligent
= farmers to pay attention to these points,
:. We find very important item in local
= journal from North Stonington, Ct, which
confirms this view. This town is on the
:. borders of Rhode Island, represents the
district where the Narragansett turkeys
principally are raised, known in the
market. as Rhode Island turkeys. The
writer says: "Probably more than fifty
thousand pounds of poultry have been sent
from this vicinity this week for the Thanks
giving market in Boston at % cents a
pound. The quality sent this year is bet
ter than that of last year, some lots of tur-
keys averaging nearly twelve pounds, and
one monstrous old fellow bore down thirty
six and a quarter. The size of turkeys
raised hereabouts has increased steadily
for twenty-five or thirty years, owing to
attention to propagation. The time was
when the average at Thanksgiving did
not exceed eight pounds, and brought only
as many cents q pound whereas the weight
has been increased fifty per cent and the
price two hundred per cent" From Ston-
Ington, the town Immediately south, a
still larger quantity was sent, and the
quality was grade heavier. Said an old
farmer who bought large Bronze gobbIer
of premium stock last season, 81 must have
some more of that stock, for have the
heaviest turkeys in the neighborhood."
Good feed, especially during the first fall
and winter, is almost as important as good
stock. A farmer feeds bushel of corn to
hundred turkeys in November in a day,
at the cost of dollar, and It looks little
extravagant. But it is less than the third
of a quart, and the cost of cent day for
each bird. We once tried the experiment
of feeding some second-litter turkeys
through the winter, and found the hens
gained about pounds month and the
gobblers pounds. The feed was princi-
pally boiled potatoes, and meal and corn.
At this rate, the gain In flesh, at twenty
five cents pound, would be worth about
seventy-fv cents month for each COB
bier, and fifty cents for each hen # thirty
cents worth Of" feed will make. this gain,
it can not be very bad business to feed tur-
keys literally through the winter BY all
means have large; well-fed stock to breed
from in the spring, and the time to make
them is new.-Americaaa AwicuEturist

Though Ife's threads seem often tangled,
Some too weak, and some too strong,
And the fabric they are weaving
Looks as if it went all wrong
Yet, that in Thy clearer wisdom,
Thou doSt hold them in Thy hand,
And that, trusting in Thee, some time,
shall see and understand
1 believe, Lord, 1 believe.
