The Demand for Milking Ewes.

A large demand is springing up in
Europe for milking ewes for the pur-
pose of making special kinds of cheese
and for milk for sale Perhaps it is the
increasing taste for Roquefort cheese
that is attracting 50 much attention to
milking ewes. In France Roquefort
cheese is prepared from a special local
brand of sheep called the Larzac, that
nip scanty heritage on rather sterile
hill slopes. In Holland-Texel and
Frise to wit, the same as in the marshes
of Italy, the milk ewes do not preserve
their milking qualities, and their power
of fecundity is diminished. However.
in Bohemia, the Dutch ewes have been
completely acclimatized in the last five
years, yielding ~ gallons of milk I,
head yearly, which sells at cents a
quart. At this rate a sheep will bring
in an income of more than $40 annually
for milk, which. with the fleece and a
lamb. will make her the most valuable
of all farm animals

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Fowls will eat a large quantity of
clover.
HENS will eat the parings of any kind
of vegeta bles if cooked.
CoPPERAs is good medicine to keen
on hand for the poultry.
BE careful to avoid draughts, espe-
cially on the sitting hens
From one bushel of corn hen will
produce ten dozen eggs. worth at least
one dollar
BURYISG the grain is good plan to
get the fowls to scratch when they are
confined.
HENS will keep in better health if
they are compelled to scratch for part
of a living.
CoPPERAs dissolucd in water is a
good as well as a cheap tonic for poul-
try of all kinds.
FEEDING the ducks too much corn
and getting them too fat will keep
them from laying.
ONE advantage in keeping a good
breed of fowls is that generally they
will receive better care.
YOUNG ducks should be kept grow
ing from the start and sent to market
as soon as they are ready.

and therefore his large yields had been
still larger. To the unthinlling reader
this doubtless reflected additional glory
to that writer.
Here is a man." they would say,
s'wbo has been getting nearly forty
four bushels of wheat to the acre and
he has contented himself with stating
that he got thirty-eight; he surely does
not overstate things" To the think
ing, careful reader, however, this diff
ference of more than an acre in the esti-
mate of twelve-acre field will bring
distrust and doubt. A man who has for
years been teaching carefulness and ac-
curacy, making them the corner stones
of successful farming, has no business
to make such an error. He should
know to the very last square yard how
much the area of certain field is, and
knowing, he will have no occasion or
excuse for making erroneous state
ments by estimates 1t is not difficult
to rapidly and accurately measure a
field and know exactly how much it
contains.
The most rapid but not most accurate
is illustrated in Fig. /: a b represents a
half rod in distance on the ground, a

chance for error. 1t can be used among
growing crops as well as bare ground.
1t should be strong and light, and SO
securely framed and braced as to make
the points unyielding. When not in
use it may be hung on two pegs on the
side of a building
Money and time is often saved in
knowing just how large a field is, es-
pecially where the seeds are bought to
SOW it or plants to plant it. Nothing is
quite so annoying as to have a shortage
of a trifie, especially when little fore
thought and exact knowledge would
have prevented it.-Popular Gardening
