Sheep as Weed Destroyers.

American CultI,aipf.
Francis H. Appleton, Of Peabody,
speaks Of sheep as an undoubted
means Of renovating worn-out and
almost unused pastures whore nutri-
tious grasses have been supplanted
by bushes, briars and mOsscs. Sheep
cannot be expected 70 feed on old
bushes or old briars, but all such
should be moved down at the start
nor can they be expected 70 thrive in
old rundown pasture without re-
ceiving some good feed from day to
day from their owner. Mr.. Appleton
says 81 bought lot Of cotton seed
meal, feeding the same 70 my sheep
every morning and night. They
liked it, and the meal agcecd with
them uncommonly we'll. fed about
pint TO each sheep at a feeding
The result was, they cleaned out ab-
solutcly every briar, every sumach
bush and many other shrubs, but not
the huckleberry bushes. They COW
cred the pasture with rich manure,
showing in its effects the superior
advantage in feeding cotton seed
meal.
