lts Value to the Breeder and the Necessity

Its Value to the Breeder and the Necessity
for Using II.
''There is no use in talking about it.
no man can succeed as a breeder without
the most liberal use of printers ink
That is what We heard fall from the lips
Of an old and successful breeder the
other day. This is truly one of the oc-
equations where it will not do to hide
your light under a bushel. The reason
for all this is simple enough. Suppose
for a number Of years you have been
assiduously attending to your breeding
business on your farm, saying nothing
TO any M through the press. attending
fairs and sales perhaps, but not giving
any one to understand that you possess
the spirit OF a leader in your line Of bust
ness, and what is the result? You become
forced to advertise, no IN knows who
you are. and those who are in need Of
the cry animal you have to sell con
clude that, as they never heard OF you
before, the chances are that you are a
mere aGventurer in the business. one
who has bought up q lot OF animals to
sell again. Such we say is the very
natural conclusion. from the fact that
you were not known TO the community
Of which you are a part.
Perhaps you are not a writing man and
know nothing Of the art OF quill-driving.
That amounts TO nothing. II you have
any ideas Of your own. and it is a poor
~ ~hn~ hac rnnn how nnn ~nndI1-
be put in form by the editor OF a good
journal. But if you so much dislike
writing as 10 refuse 20 do il under any
and all circumstances, then you must
advertise the more. tor the lack OF this
Advertise you should do any way; eve
if it be but a small one, il should be in
several journals. and stay there year IN
and year out. Keep yourself before the
public.
One good way TO court public atten-
ton is showing stock al fairs. It mat
te-s very little who gets the premium,
your gain from the notice you
get from every journal that mentions
the fair. All such scribblers praise you,
no matter what you have on exhibition.
Then there is the advertisement OF pub
lie sales: of course the better the ami
mails you have in the sales the more they
advertise you, but you should get into
those sales even if you come in at the
tail end. We know a number OF men
who have been handling fine stock for
twenty to thirty years. always breeding
and buying the best, but who have never
succeeded in selling to a great advan-
tage. simply because they have neglected
the proper use Of printers ink--Amer-
lean Dairyman.

ABOUT SHEEP.

More sheep are lost by dogs in all Of
the older States than b. all other
causes. This is an unnecessary tax.
A few days ago a Montana flock
master received a draft for a little over
SIS. 600 for mis- wool clip Of this year.
Oats is a better grain feed than corr
for ewes. It is not so heating and con-
tains more Of the heterogeneous element
so essential in building up the system
OF the young.
Every fiock-master must know by this
time that it is a constant diet on dry
food in winter that plays the mischief
with the flock. II you have neither en-
silage nor roots, feed soma oil meal.
Corn must be fed to sheep very spar
ingly. Not owe a pound and a half Of
corn should be given daily to a good
sized wether. But in addition it must
l.; ve plenty of nutritious grass or hay.
Many farmers in Western New York
gave up the wool business as unproft-
able long ago, but still keep sheep. and
say that keeping the mutton breeds is
one of the b~est-paying branches of farm
ing.
Sheep should not be compelled to feed
at the same rack with cattle. They are
liable to be hooked. and a vicious ram
may sometimes do injury to cattle.
Separate yards and separate racks are
safest and best.

A Practical Success.

The Spreckles beet sugar enterprise in
Santa Cruz County. says the San Fran
cisco Call, has proved a practical sue
cess. and the world is thereby furnished
with another illustration Of Claus
Spreckles' sagacity. This latest sue
s increases the business prestige Of
Spreckles to An enormous extent. He
said the enterprise would sucreed and
va sanguine in the face Of failures. He
held that previous experiments had not
been properly made and could not be
considered as true tests The beet sugar
factory at Watsonville has been running
two weeks. and a crushing Of $50 tons of
beet c day has yielded forty tons Of
sugar. The enterprise is highly appre-
ciated by the farmers of the jacksonville
region and the people of the town. for
the very excellent reason hat it has de-
veloped one season of prosperity and in
sured more. II is to be hoped that Mr..
S~preckles will look into other industries
after he has finished with sugar. A man
OF his intelligence and force should not
cOntne his attention to any one product.

Saving Manure.

Successful gardening mean a plenti-
full application Of fertilizers. and. in
deed. there should be more attention
given to saving n IN the farm
than is now bestowed. Our land is
mostly very fertile naturally. but
manure does not hurt any land. and the
time will come when either we or those
who come after US must fertilize the
land. But the garden needs manure,
and We would raise the best garden
crops. In the first place, We should have
a barnyard that is fitted for saving the
manure. If the yard is one that per-
mits all the drainage TO run to waste We
shall lose a good deal. The drainage
should be taken care Of somehow. it
being left to the individual Judgment in
each case as how best to do that. Then
in piling up manure it is much better to
put it into a fat heap. II you pile horse
manure on to a high, loose place fer
mentation will be excessive and a vast
deal of ammonia will be wasted. If it
is put into a fat pile the process Of fer
mentation a be regulated, for when
IL is too great the pile an be trodden
down. That will check fermentation.

tha Q concerted system Of hazing must be

~. as directed, there will be from 90. 900
TO 30. ZOO poles on An acre Perhaps not
more than one-fourth Of these will be OF
sufficient size TO cut this first time. The
lengths required are as follows. For mo-
lasses barrels. eight-foot poles; for pork
barrels. seven-foot: for smaller-sized bar
rels. four-toot six inches, fve-:oot six
inches and six-foot. The demand
is for the two longest mentioned. The
poles to be manufactured into these
lengths must be at least one inch in
diameter at the top end. The smallest
size mentioned need no, be over five
eighths OF an inch in diameter at the top
end. As a rule it will not pay TO cut
the poles until they have attained the
larger size named. as the price is so low
for these small sizes that it will be more
profitable to give the timber another
