Tar the Noses Of Sheep.


Practical Farmer.
The months of July and August
are the ones when sheep in many To-
calities are subject to a most aggra-
waiting annoyance from fly (oestrus
bovis) which seems bound to deposit
it's larvae in the nostrils. 1t infects
wooded districts and shady places
where the sheep resort for shelter,
and by it's ceaseless attempts to enter
the nose makes the poor creature
almost frantic. If but one fly is in a
flock they all become agitated and
alarmed. They will assemble in
groups, holding their heads close to-
gether and their noses to the ground.
AS they hear the buzzing of the lit
tie pest going from one to another,
they will crowd their muzzles into
the loose dirt, made by their stamp
ing, to protect themselves, and as the
pest succeeds in entering the nose OF
a victim, it will start on a run, fols
lowed by the whole flock, to find q
retreat from its enemy, throwing its
head from side to side, as if in the
greatest agony, while the oestrus,
having gained his lodging. place, as
siduously deposits his larva in the
inner margin of the nose. Here,
aided by warmth and moisture, the
eggs quickly hatch into a small mag
got, which carrying out its instincts,
begins to crawl up into the nose
through a crooked opening in the
bone. The annoyance is fearful, and
maddening, as it works its way up
into the head and cavities.
The best known remedy is tar, in
which is mixed small amount of
crude carbolic acid. If the scent of
the acid does not keep the fly away
he gets entangled in the tar, which is
kept soft by the heat of the animal
Any kind of tar or turpentive is use
ful for this purpose, and greatly pro-
notes the comfort of the sheep and
prevents the ravages of the bot in the
head.

Overworked Farmers.

At this season of the year when
the cultivation and harvesting of
farm crops claim the constant atten-
ton of farmers, and when excessive
heat makes hard work so depressing,
there is danger from overwork with
the ambitious farmer, who has his
entire mind on the safety of his
crops. Probably one-half Of the farm
ers of our country work too hard for
the good of their health, and very
often it is entirely unnecessary.
Farmers who have a number of work
men under their supervision can
usually accomplish as much by their
minds as by their hands, and with
less fatigue. There is rnuch in the
management of farm laborers, and to
direct ones hands so as to accomplish
the greatest amount of work in the
least time is one of the secrets of sue
cessful farming. The farmer who
tolls necessarily through the day in
the hot sun, or perhaps in the rain,
besides doing chores morning and
night, finds little pleasure in life.
And he fealizes less, too, from his
labor than he expects. A more suc-
cessful farmer will hire his hard work
done, and keep himself fresh and
vigorous, and his hands encouraged
by performing less work himself and
directing and showing others. In
every large business where laborers
are hired, person is needed whose
chief business 1t is to plan, lay out
and direct work, and 1t holds true as
much on farm as in machine shop,
carriage mandatory or store. A
great fault with farmers is, that they
have too little system about their
business. More thought and less
hard labor will do wonders on some
farms, and the owners would reap the
reward in greater freedom and more
happiness.

Save the Hay.

Corn will be scarce and high next
Winter. That will send up the price
of pork and beef to high figures.
The only way to take the proper adj
vantage of that condition of things
is to save all the hay possible, 10 help
make up the deficiency. Scarcity of
corn will make high prices tor all
kinds of feeding stuffs, including hay.
Therefore, whether or not one has
home demand for hay, for feeding, he
should cut all the grass that Nature
gives him this year. 1t is too often
the case with Western farmers that
they save only the cream of the grass
crop, leaving that which is more
scant, to fall down and go to waste.
Every farmer this year should cut
clean the thick and thin grass alike,
cure it as we'll as the season will al
low and store in stack or barn for
Winter use or sale. Saving the pro-
ducts usually wasted, means the diff
ference between large and small prof
its.

The Value of Glover.
its

Prof. Voelcker is one of the
strongest advocates for clover in o
farm rotation, and gives these as his
conclusions upon it's value and gen.
eral character:
l. A good crop Of clover removes
from the soil more potash, phosphoric
acid, lime, and other mineral matters,
which enter into the composition of
the ashes of our cultivated crops.
than any other crop usually grown
in this country.
2. There is fully three times as
much nitrogen in crop of clover as
in the average product of the grain
and straw of wheat per acre.
2. Glover is an excellent prepara-
tory crop for wheat.
4. During the growth of clover,
large amount of nitrogenous matter
accumulates in the soil.
5. This accumulation, which is
greatest in the surface soil, is due to
decaying leaves dropped during the
growth of clover, and to an abund-
ance of roots containing, when dry
from l Z to 2 per cent. of nitrogen.
6. The clover roots are stronger
and more numerous, and more leaves
fall on the ground, when clover is
grown for seed, than when it is
mown for hay; in consequence more
nitrogen is left after clover seed than
after hay.
I. This crop causes large accu-
mutation of ntrogeuous matters
which are gradually changed in tile
soil to nitrates.
s. Clover not only provides abund-
ance of heterogeneous food, but deliv.
ers this food in n readily available
form, as nitrates, more gradually and
continuousl Y, and with more certainty
OF good result, than such food can be
applied to the land in the shape of
nitrogenous spring top dressings.
1T goes without saying that oats is
| grown as feed for stock. Has IL heen
demonstrated that the usual adopted
mode produces the best results ? If
not, is it not worth inquiring into, by
means of some carefully conducted
experiment? We incline to think,
judging from limited experience in
the matter upon our own farm, that
oats cut before ripening, say when
the grain is sin the milk" and treated
and fed on hay, will furnish more
and better feed than when allowed to
ripen, threshed, and fed in the usual
way. If this be true, the gain would
be considerable, if the saving in labor
should be added to the increase of
the feed. Is not the experiment
worth trying? Where "cut feed" is
used for the teams, as is often the
case on farms-and always should be-
a profitable modification of this plan
may be made by cutting the oats
while at the same stage of ripening
binding 1t in sheaves, as Usual, and
using It in place Of the time-honored
rye-straw. Very much less than the
customary amount of 'chop feed"
will answer, and the very unpleasant
labor of threshing the oats will have
been saved.

A RICH lumberman in northern
Michigan has salted small lake and
planted it with oysters. Salt costs
very little at Saginaw, and as the
lake has no outlet it is easy to keep
the water salt. He expects to raise
as fine oysters as can be found on
any of the bays of the coast.
THOSE who place high value on
improved stock should keep in view
the fact that the use of inferior stock
of any breed will not give satisfac-
ton. In order to improve the animal
must be vigorous, of good form, and
up to the standard of purity. Breed
ers wrong their customers and injure
their reputation in allowing any but
good stock to go from their stock
farms.
SINCE it is claimed that an acre
of fish-pond will produce more food
than five acres of ground, why should
not farmers raise their own fish as
Systematically as they do hogs or
cattle? And why should they not
turn their attention to fish culture as
a regular industry and so r1e of prof.
it, especially thos3 who have the ad
vantage of good markets? ? There
are few farms that, with little labor
and expense, could not get water to
supply fish pond.
