There is no danger that sheep will not
thrive on the same pasture that they
ran upon last year, or that the soil will
be less fertile by them being there.

creased number Of sheep ~sn be kept on
a certain number Of acres year by year.

FARM NOTES.


II the hay, wheat or oats are stacked
in stubble fields, plow a few burrows
around them as a protection against
fire. 1t will save in many cases consid-
erable loss.
Grass, wheat and rye should be sown
early in the fall Get the seed ready
and have the soil worked into good
tilth, and then SOW the seed early II

Placed in open vessels in rooms whose
windows and doors have been tightly
closed and all cracks stuffed or pieces OF
paper pasted over them, the sulphur is

the room kept saturated and filled with

The wheat oats and flax crops of this
county have all been harvested, and
generally in splendid condition, and
while the wheat crop is only third TO
a half it is OF splendid quality and
yields from II to 20 bushels, with many
fields reported at % TO 30 and oven 50
bushels. Oats from % to as high as so
