Dogs do not always kill sheep for the purpose
of procuring food. The best fed dogs, when once
they begin the practice, will continue it until
they are caught in the act.
Sliced carrots and oats figure largely in the
food given to sheep in Vermont The sheep of
that State are said to eat mere of oats than of
any other grain.
A French authority states that carrots give
horses new blood, which seems to restore them,
and they may be justly claimed as the regenera-
tor of worn out horses.
Many acres of tomatoes and cucumbers are be-
ing ploughed under in Florida, because the crop
is so large and prices so low that it does not pay
to gather and send the fruit North.
e. w Andrews, near Lynnfeld, Mass, keeps
on a farm of half dozen acres, 1,500 hens in
summer and from 4. 900 to 5000 in winter, and
figures up his profit from 81 % to 81 80 per fowl
He has two men to help him, and seems to be
making success of raising fowls on a large
scale, a business requiring considerable ex-
perience.
The Fallowalder apple first grew on the prop
erty OF minister, somewhere in the interior of
Pennsylvania, by the name of Valdez. The
fruit was good, and the people took seions from
the tree. The German designation of minis
ter or preacher is water, and thus the apple was
called Water Walder, and IL gradually degenera-
ted to Fallowalder which is the way the apple
is now spelled in the list of fruit raisers.
We once experimental saws the Live Stock
Journal, by hauling twenty-four large loads of
the best manure upon two acres of clay loan
land Upon two acres more no manure was
used, but it was well worked One and half
bushels of corn were drilled per acre upon each
piece, the drills being sixteen inches apart
When the corn was ready to cut the unmanured
two acres stood eighteen inches higher than the
MANFRED piece. The MANFRED piece gave TWEEN
ty-two tons per acre and the other twenty eight
tons. The excellence of the unmanured piece
was due to the fact that it was cultivated till
the soil was as fine as garden bed four inches
deep, and the cost of the extra labor was only
81. 80 per acre. 1t is therefore, apparent that
the first consideration in furnishing food for
plants is thorough cultivation.
A writer in the Home and Farm says: 'rNIost
soil needs salt Perhaps word here in refer
ence to salt will not be out of place l might say
it is indispensable to plum and pear trees, they
needing from three pints to two quarts to each
tree. about six bushels per acre, each year,
sown broadcast and not put in large quantities
against the tree. 1t had better be applied at diff
ferent intervals. In neighborhood containing
large orchards the owners were quite discouraged
about their apples, as they are very wormy; they
were all more or less infected. One of the own
ers resolved to kill or cure, and, owning meat
market, he had large quantity of old salt and
brine. He applied it in the spring to the orchards
in quantities seemingly large enough to kill all
the trees. Yet his trees did better than usual,
producing a large crop of sound apples, while his
neighbors were as bad as ever.

Care of Bees in the, Summer.

W. y. Hutchinson, in Country Gentleman.
The natural temperature inside of bee hive
containing a strong colony of bees approaches
1909 in the working season. If the temperature
outside falls much below 60o, the bees do not
leave the hive When it rises to 70o q few work
ers will leave the strongest colonies for the
fields. AS the temperature continues to rise,
more bees leave the hives, until, if it reaches
1902, probably no more bees remain in a hive
than are needed to nurse the unsealed brood,
build comb etc. Thus it will be seen that no
shade is needed until a thermometer, hung in an
empty hive exposed to the direct rays of the sun,
registers more than 1902. In fact, shade at any
other time may be detrimental; it certainly
would be if it forced the bees of a weak colony
to remain at home simply to maintain the proper
temperature. In the spring and fall months,
day of even the hottest weather. no shade is
needed, hence all fixed shades including vines,
ANIMALS and trees do nearly as much harm as
good. ..
The best shade that can be recommended is a
light board two feet wide and three feet long,
placed upon the top of the hive, the north edge
of the board being even with the north side of
the hive, The board thus projects beyond the
hive at the east west and south sides, and shades
the hive in the middle of the day, but allows the
sun to strike it morning and evening. Last sea-
son used such shade boards, and many of them
were made by mailing the butts of shingles to a
piece of board four inches wide and two feet
long. The cover to the hive used is simply a
board, with cleats three inches wide nailed to
the ends. AS the cleats extend inch above
the upper surface of the cover, the shade board

Sluggishness the Prominent Characteristic of
the General Merchandise Markets.
INDIANAPOLIS. June IA.
In all departments of trade there is lack of
snap. -Four days out of six business is usually
quiet, or, in other words one day of brisk trade
is followed by two or three days of dullness, and
indications are that for six weeks to come trade
will be much of such character. Contrary to
the expectations of many old grocers, sugars
continue weak in price and tend lower rather
than higher. Coffees show no signs of rallying
in the produce markets there is considerable &C
tvity, but prices vary often in twenty-four
hours to so wide a range that quotations become
of little value. More especially will theabove re-
mark apply to strawberries, vegetables, etc. For
some unexplained reason, potatoes have advanced
In price sharply. Receipts of strawberries, green
peas and beans are large. The egg market is
hardly as firm, while large arrivals of poultry
and butter prices are weak, only choice butter
selling at any reasonable figures.

The local market is unchanged, unless for the
better grades of corn, prices are shade stronger.

Upper River Improvement.

Capt. Quinn, chief in charge OF the
work OF improving the upper Missouri,
together with his efficient aloe ue-cannp,
Capt. Durage. came up on the steanler

river, With the view OF determining
what work is 10 be done during the sea-
son. From Capt. Durage it WAS learned
that his operations this year would be
chiefly i'll the vicinity OF Fort Benton,
the first work TO be the building OF d
wing dam ut the Shonkin bar, OF where
thai bar used to be before the gorge took
1t away.
Tie nttle Emily is at Sioux City,
where she has undergone a thorough
o~veriauilng, II is now much better

Durage will bring the Emily to this
clty at once, and will then construct
here "a massive flat boat suitable Tor
bringing stone from above for the dan
at the Snonkin, and other purposes. AS
the appropriation for the river this year
will In all probability be a liberal one,
IA vast Improvement in the channel be-
tween the Coal Banks and Fort Benton
will be effected. We are pleased to be
able TO report hat Capt. Durage will
bring his FAMILY to this city II make
his headquarters here during the season.

The Shonkln Bar.

For years Fort Benton and all the
steamboatmen on the upper Missouri
have been pouring the Walls OF their
wrath, SO to speak, upon the Shonkln
bar, the most formidable and persistent
obstacle to navigation on the upper
river. But there Is to be an end to This.
The Shonkin will never give much
more trouble. The Immense gorge that
formed Oh the bar last spring literally
carried it away, and there is now as
much water at that point as anywhere
between the Shonkin and Fort Benton.
Capt. Durage, in referring to the matter
yesterday. said:
"God Almighty got tired waiting for
a sufficient appropriation from congress
and scooped the bar out with an ice
gorge last winterW
AS it is this place will be no longer a
terror to steambeatmen, but Capt. Du-
rage proposes to make the improvement
permanent by putting in a wing dam of
solid stone by which a good channel

be done among the first work OF the

usual energy, is having a good road
made from the town to the great or low

across the four mile coulee for the con-
venlence OF tourists, and pathways have
