soiling and so save little extra work.

prove whether in our own particular case
A is truth.

One reason why the sheep is more
valuable as an enricher OF the soil up
on which it feeds than the COW. is that
while the COW consumes about six
times as much fool as the sheep, The
six sheep would only take away in
their feeces a little less than two
pounds of nitrogen and less than ten
ounces of mineral matter, while the
COW. if she gave 1000 pounds OF milk,
would take away tyenty-six pounds Of
mineral fertilizer. largely phosphate
of lime, and twenty-five pounds of
nitrogen, or thirteen times as much
nitrogen and fory-three times as
much mineral as six sheep. The six
sheep are supposed to weigh about the
same number OF pounds and eat about
as much food as a COW. but they will
eat many plants that the COW does not
eat-Country Gentleman

some Obnoxious Weeds.

Next to the Canada thistle is wild
lettuce. which every farmer should fight
with all the vigoi' he possesses, and
those that will not should be compelled
by law to do so. Il have cut it three
times when in bloom as close TO the
ground as possible! and still it would
send up other shoots some not more
than an inch high Sheep will keep
it down to a certai IN height but will
not kill it. Wheni it is small you can
not find it at all to- cut. Its seed blows
as badly as the thistle seed. but the
stalks are worse iri hay, as it moulds
the hay it touches. as it does not cure.

There are a number Of simple ex-
perimeiits which might be easily per-
formed by farmers. The resrTts'of which
would throw more light on their diff
ferent operations and occasionally cor
rect some mistakes into which they
frequently fall Take for instance the
common opinion that the growth of
heritage on the top of. a soil shades it
50 effectually as 10 preserve the mois-
ture and TO prevent it drying in the
suns rays. The experiment may be
tried by selecting a piece of grass sod
where there is a rank growth OF meadow
and pasture, and pulveriziug a few
square feet 10 few inches in depth
During some of the hottest days in
summer examine the soil few inches
down on both portions. and it will be
found that the soil where the grass
plants have been pumping the moisture
out of the ground is drier than the bare
mellow earth where the evaporation
has been much slower. Opportunities
sometimes occur in farmers gardens
where 4 crop of pig weeds closely en-
cumber contain spots of ground ad-
iacent to spots q clean mellow earth.
The pig weeds have thrown of the
moisture more rapidly than the finely
pulverized bare soil. One will be quite
dry while the other has a distinct sup
ply Of moisture. This experiment may
be tried with more accuracy by weigh
ing at the same time, certain weight
of fresh grass sod. and an equal weight
Of finely pulverized earth. each being
equally moist. Expose them ten hours
to the not sun and then carefully
weigh again Accurate instruments
will Of course be required-or the trial
may be continued for several days.
A shading of dry litter will give a
different result as dead straw does not
operate like the living plant The
operation then becomes strictly mulch
ing. keeping the surface moist which
living and growing plants cannot do

The Cow-catcher.

The common "cow-catoher attach
mert to locomotive is about the
only article Of universal use that was
never patented. 1t was invented by
D. V. Davies, of Columbus, o., still
living and ute aged.
He borrowed the idea from the
mould-board OF tie plough, which Is
used to throw the soil TO one side,
but was so busy he neglected to pat
emit it until it was too late.
1t is in use to-day as originally in
vented by Mr.. Davies without devia-
ton or change from the original
plan, and has saved millions of dol
iars to railroad companies and prob
ably thousands of lives, but not a
penny TO the inventor.
