Sheep and Calves In the Corn Fields,


Weeds are likely to escape in the lat.
ter cultivation of the corn and other
weeds spring up after cultivation is end
ed. 1t is these weeds which foul the
land for future years. The weeds in the
corn field are neglected during the hurry
of grain and hay harvest, threshing.
hauling manure and preparing the
ground for wheat. But even better than
is the scythe, says The American Agri-
culturist, are the sheep. Let them have
the run of the corn fields during the
autumn. They like the shade of the rows.
They will nibbls off the lower blades of
the corn, but this is in no wise an injury
to the crop. The sheep will also find
every weed and bunch of grass. Their
scent is sharp, and they will discover
weeds that would be overlooked. There
are very few weeds indeed that will not
be cropped by sheep, especially by the
Merino breed; they crop so close to the
ground that the weeds will hardly start
again. The spring calves, if not too
strong. may well be put with the sheep.
Unless unusually large, they will not
damage the corn and will get considera-
BILE feed which would otherwise be
wasted

Timely Suggestions.

The question as to early or late sowing
of grain has never been settled, although
the majority of farmers sow early.
Progressive farmers are generally
agreed on the superiority of drilling in
grain seeds over sowing in broadcast.
Now is the time to plant spring flow
ering bulbs, such as tulips, hyacinths
crocus, narcissus and the like.
The honey crop is poor one in mos,
sections, owing to the results of heavy
and continuous rains.
Asparagus plants may be set out either
In autumn. after they have ceased to
grow, or in the spring.
Several weeks should elapse between
the sowing of grain and of the grass
seeds.

The Republicans held their conventions,

canvass. They soon found, however,
that Republican speakers would not be
permitted to address the public, that
every possible obstacle in the way of the
circulation Of Republican campaign
literature had been devised. and
that even IL Republican votes were
cast there was no possibility that they
would be counted. But one course re-
