SHEEP ON THE FARM.

A southerner's Plan for Redeeming the
 Farm with sheep and Movable Fences.
 A South Carolinian writing to South ern Cultivator says: "I would rather farm without hired labor than without sheep. One of the experiment. stations has recently found that ,000 pounds live weight of well fed sheep makes thirty eight dollars worth of manure yearly. This is about s3. 80 head for good aver age sheep. If, therefore, never sell a lamb or pound of wool can afford to keep sheep and give them good care and good feed, and make bigproft on them provided always that I save all the manure.
 "One hundred sheep will give me $3S0 worth of fertilizer. That is twenty tons at nineteen dollars ton. Few two horse farms use so much. Few make that much clear on the cotton crop. But any two horse farm in this section could keep 100 sheep and save this fertilizer bill.
 1.-The best way to save all the manure from any stock is to pen them where you want the manure on your land. To do this easily and cheaply you want movable fence. After much hunting and reading have hit upon the follow ing, which any farmer can make at a

Filling Up Around Trees.

There are few species of trees that will bear filling up around them almost as far as you please, but the majority will not. Should one desire for any reason to try it, it is advised in the New York World to makea little pile of loose stones around the base of the tree--a loose con ical wall few inches thick and little higher than the proposed fill It is be- lieved it will protect the tree from any injury that might otherwise result. The little mound of loose stones will prevent the entire exclusion of air and also the pressure Of earth against the tree, which in the case of many species would cause a decay of the bark and suspension of the flow of sup. Leave few inches of the top close to the tree uncovered.

A PANEL OF MOVABLE FENCE

nominal cost: The materials used are barbed wire and staples and wire nails. These you must buy. Then, if there is sawmill within reach, go there when they are edging up lumber and they will give you the slats to save trouble of burning them. Saw them up four or four and one-half feet long, and make panels fifteen or eighteen feet long by mailing these slats to your wire with your staples, say four inches apart. Put on three of the slats as braces, using wire nails and clinching them. Let the ends of your wires extend two feet be- yond last slat nailed on, and when you put the panels up to posts, wrap these ends around posts. This is easier to do than to nail them, and easier to take down. Cut cypress or poplar posts Sharpen ends and plant rather firmly, to fit length of panel, This fence can be moved from one plot to one adjoining in about half an hour, and will hold any kind of stock. Braces put on as shown enable you to hold the panel up. One man can carry it, though two can handle it more easily"
 ''lf you will make pen, say 100 feet square, and put 100 sheep in it at night for week, then move it, you will have it rich for five years. You will thus ma

Cover nyacintns ana narclssus five inches, tulips four inches, jonquils, scillas and colchicums three inches, crocuses and snowdrops two inches, anemones one inch deep, and you will not be far amiss Bulbs may be planted from two to three times their diameter apart. After planting cover the bed with coarse litter; it breaks the force of the winters cold, prevents undue freezing and thawing and helps the quality of the bloom. Follow these simple directions and Popular Gardening will vouch for results

have already organized under the new
law and are preparing to give up their
national bank charters. It permits them
to reduce their capital stock, which it
would be impossible to do under the
national bark act and which in smaller
towns is very desirable, and at the same
time gives then practically the same

begin business under the new law is that

is Congressman MorrilPs bank, and is
one of the strongest institutions in the
state. 1t was already incorporated un-
der the state law and all that was necces-

commissioner and receive it's license to
do business. This has been done and it
is operating under the new law. All
banks of the state except national banks
must comply with the provisions of the
law by September %.

Osborne Farmer: Quite a number
of farmers sustained the loss of from
one to ten head of cattle during the last
storm of the season. Most of the stock
i stood the test better than was expected.
Out of 200 head, Jim Juvenal, of Inde-

Leavenworth Standard: Fred Craw-

farm on Pilot Knob, has just finished
planting one acre in seedlings. When
the plants on this one acre are partly

is usually ready for market on or about
Thanksgiving day, and from that time
