VALUE OF SHEEP.

Factor in Farming that is Often Neg
lected or Underrated.
A trip through the sheep breeding
districts of the country would soon CON
vince one that sheep are of inestimable
value in keeping up the fertility of the
soil. In England the fine breeds of
sheep come in for their share in the in
tensive farming of the country, and
recent writer makes the assertion that
great deal of the fertility of the soil
there is due directly to the fiocks. In
clearing and renUvating old fields the
value of the flock can not be over
looked, and there are many poor, brier,
bushy farms in this country that could
be greatly enhanced in value by letting
the sheep roam over the fields
A few farmers may consider the sheep
nuisance after they are sheared, and
then turn them out into the wilderness
to find food in the wilds of other see-
tions. BY SO doing they rob themselves
of great good. A poor field could
soon be brought up to high state OF
cultivation by placing sheep in it. The
flock will soon free such places of all
briers and weeds.
While the sheep are of great value,
IN keeping down the briers, bushes and
weeds it should also be remembered
that they are kept for other purposes as
well. Wool and mutton growing are
really the chief objects in view, al
though some farmers may be induced
to keep few sheep for the good which
they do to their soils and lands.
Proper feeding during summer is of
particular Importance in fattening
sheep, and if this is done rightly the
greatest good will be obtained from
the food. An important point in feed
ing sheep is the relative proportion of
water in the food required to get the
best advantage. This is a subject that
many flock masters fail to think about.
good fatening fodder must not be too
watery, and large quantities of brew
ers' or distillers' grain, or even of roots,
are of far less benefit to these animals
than to cattle. Feeding too heavily
upon roots is not beneficial, for tbev
are very watery although the English
turnip plays an important part in the
fodder of the English system. In this
county, however, the roots have not
yet been fed in sufficient quantity to do
any harm, but on the contrary thev
have not been fed to sheep enough.
Potatoes allow a pretty fair ratio
between water and total dry matter,
and they should be fed along with
grains, grass and hay. Sheep are
rather particular in their food and
they will not eat anything distaste-
tul to them until forced to it by hunger.
But with little judicious care the odds
and ends on the farm can be fed to
them in such way as to make a cheap,
good fodder. If there is an abundance
OF small potatoes Or roots to give to
them, do not feed than too literally to
the exclusion OF grass, hay and grain,
ppt feed them oat gradually along with

In three months the young turkeys
of to-day will be sent to market and Il
have them large and well grown tbey
should receive extra attention now. il
is customary to turn them out toforaqe
for themselves Rnd to roost in the
trees. 1t is anAexcellent plan, and en-.
ables many togaSe a large flock atslit
tie or no cost, Duh it will pay to give
them feed at night, so as to increase
the growth as well as to induce them
to come up to roost. If the young tur
keys are early taught to roost under
an open shed, so as to be protected
from storms, they will thrive better
than if roosting in trees. Young tur.
keys become lame from flying on and
off the high limbs of trees, and do not
grow after being injured. The object
should be to feed them from this time
until they are ready for market, but
feed only sparingly at present, After
October they may be fed all they can
eat at one meal, morning and night iB
order to have them fat and in choice
condition to secure the best prices, It
is not the largest turkey that sells
soonest, but the fat and plump bird, Of
medium size, for which an extra pricc
can be obtained at all seasons.-Farm

FEEDING EXPERIMENTS.
Hints to Farmers as the Result of Expert
ment Station Experiences.

Hints to Farmers as the Result of Expert
ment Station Experiences.
From experience to determine the
comparative value of different food
stuff, etc, for dairy cows, carried on at
the Vermont experimental station, the
following conclusions were drawn:
/. Corn fodder and corn silage from
the same source had almost equal feed
ing value in products per pound of dry
matter eaten; from different sources
average silage proved better than aver
age fodder; both corn fodder and corn
silage proved to be superior to whole
stover.
2. The lower half of stover (butts)
proved to have equal feeding value with
the upper half (tops), pound for pound
of dry matter in each.
3. Hay and corn stover had much the
same effect on milk production.
4. Corn silage from frost-bitten corn,
poorly made, proved inferior to that
from well-made and unfrosted corn.
5. Apple pomace ensiled, and used
supplementary to and in part as sub
stitute for corn silage, is relished by
cows, and appeared by four tests to be
about equivalent in feeding value to
com silage.
6. Pea and oat hay was not relished,
but such as was eaten proved decidedly
better than any other fodder used.
7. Good corn silage caused gain in all
respects over good hay.
s. hungarian grass silage was fed at
oil Ilo~
1t gave with one cow the same lone a
little better), with two others poorer
results than did good hay, being, on the
whole, of nearly equal value with it.
9. The error inherent in feeding
trials, such as here reported may be
considered to be, on the whole, APP
/ proximately four per cent. of the larger
yield.
10. Water below forty degrees fahren-
heit was drunk as freely as when
warmer, and less of it when the barn
temperature was about normal fifty
| degrees fahrenheit) than when warmer
| or cooler.
II. No relation was traced between

of the food and the casein of the milk.
70. When changes in total solids take
place the fat is most likely to vary,
casein next, and sugar and ash least.
Is Generally speaking, as milk flow
| shrinlls, the percentage of solids in
creases, but the gross amounts of solids
decreases. Cows in calf change quanti-
ty of milk more rapidly than farrow
cows, and cows in pasture less rapidly
| than when barn fed
| IA. One seasons experience indicates
the following as true for the station
| herd: In changing from barn to pasture
feed of equal feeding value the quality
of milk changes differently in different
animals, there being usually gain in
per cent. of solids, casein and sugar,
and loss in per cent. of fat; the gross
amount of ingredients almost invariably
| increases. Animal individually PLAYS
so large a part in the marked change
from barn to pasture feeding that the
statement of the change in quality of
milk should not be taken as of general
application. Further work in this line
is being carried out by this station.

PLANT DIET.
Carbonic Acid of More Importance Thar
Soil.

Carbonic Acid of More Importance Than
soil.
Every plant has one set of aerial
mouths to suck in carbon, and MANY
plants have another set of subterranean
mouths as WELL to suck up water and
mineral constituents. Have you ever
grown mustard and cress in the window
on piece of flannel? If SO, that's
capital practical example of the COM
parative unimportance of soil, except as
means of supplying moisture. You put
your flannel in a soup-plate by the din
1ng-room window; you keep it we'll wet,
and you lay the seeds of the cress on
top of it. The young plants, being sup
piled with water by their roots, and
with carbon by the air around, have all
the little they need below, and grow
and thrive in these conditions wonder
fully But if you were to cover them ur
with an air-tight glass case, so as to ex-
clude fresh air, they'd shrivel up at once
for want of carbon, which is their solid
food, as water is their liquid.
The way the plant really eats is little
known to gardeners, but very interest
ing. All over the lower surface of the
green leaf lie scattered dozens of tiny
mouths or apertures, each of them
guarded by two small pursed-up lips
which have a ridiculously human ap-
pearance when seen through simple
microscope. When the conditions of
air and moisture are favorable these
lips open visibly to admit gases, and
then the tiny mouths suck in carbonic
acid in abundance from the air around
them. A series of pipes conveys the
gaseous food thus supplied to the upper
surface of the leaf, where the sunlight
falls full upon it. Now, the cells of
the leaf contain peculiar green dices-
tive material, which regret to say has
no simpler or more cheerful name than
chlorophyll; when the sunlight plays
upon this mysterious chlorophyl it
sewers the oxygen from the carbon in
the carbonic acid, turns the free gas
loose upon the atmosphere once more
through the tiny mouths, and retains
the severed carbon intact in its own
tissues. That is the whole process of
feeding in plants; they eat carbonic
acid, digest it in their leaves, get rio, of
the oxygen with which it was formerly
combined, and keep the carbon stored
up for their own purposes.-Co CornhiII
