ADVICE FOR FARMERS.

In stormy weather keep sheep in
doors; better to lose meal than to get
wet.
IT is an important item to have good
teams on the farm If the work is done
in good season.
WHEN you find bull to head your
herd that suits you, buy him. Don't
bubble over few dollars.
BEGINNERS with poultry should, as a
rule. commence with one variety, and
keep it until the details of the business
are well mastered.
For growing alone blue grass is one
of the very best that can be grown on
the farm. Blue grass and orchard
grass will thrive in the shade.
AN important item in successful farm
ing is the keeping Of a sufficient mum.
ber of stock to consume to advantage
all of the products of the farm.
CLOVER can be grown on any soil
that is in reasonably good condition
and under ordinary conditions can bs
sown in the spring or in the fali.
UTILIZE all bones, even if you have
no means whereby they can be pound
ed or ground. The smaller the pieces
of bone the better. They are excellen
for all kinds of fruit trees, and II ap
piled around grape vines the effect
of the application will he noticed 70

ECONOMY in production is the key +

WHEN TO SOW GLOVER.
The Views of Kentucky Farmer Given
i'm His Own Words.

i'm His Own Words.
Clover is usually sown between
March and April /, and from eight to
twelve pounds of seed per acre is the
customary seeding. Many years ago l
became satisfied that such usage both
as to time and quantity was not right.
Three pounds of clover seed will sow
an acre more thickly than seventy-tve
pounds of wheat. The seed itself will
germinate with the certainty OF other
lcguminous types, and good practice
implies such conditions of semination
as will insure both the termination of
the seed and its preservation until its
root becomes firmly fixed in the earth
at and after which time red clover is a
very hardy plant.
When wheat, rye and barley are
seeded, the sowing ordinarily is on the
unprepared surface, and at a time char
acterized by rapid changes of tempera-
ture and great atmospheric movements.
The sprouted seed is lost while in the
crook" either by sharp frost or the
arid wind of March afternoon-being
on the surface and both root and
cotyledon exposed, If germinated
clover seed be exposed on moist flannel
to comparative cold it will perish, but
If covered with one thickness of the
same material at a temperature Of
eight degrees above zero there is only
partial loss.
If the seed be sown in January
preferably on snow-the action of rair
and frost will cover it perfectly, and il
many years | have not failed to secure
perfect stand with three or, at most
four pounds of seed per acre. Many o
the best farmers in the bluegrass re
gion have adopted this plant with per
feet success. The only objection to b,
urged is, that on rich land the clover
in wet seasons, reaches so great ;
height that it interfercs with the rapi'
driving of the sheaf. More money i
annually wasted in Kentucky by the in
| judicious sowing of clover seed thai

erature. Farmer, in Farmers HON

PROFIT IN SHEEP.
The Most Useful Domesticated Animal
on the General Farm.

on the General Farm.
A North Dakota farmer is reported to
have gone into sheep-raising about two
years ago with capital Of 5000. Since
then he has sold $500 worth Of wool
and $500 worth of sheep, and has 400
sheep now, for which he has been of
fered $3.50 each but refused to sell.
What could be more encouraging than
this to farmers In any of the regions OF
this country subjected to frequent crop
failures from drought or other causes?
The sheep properly selected according
to the climatic condition of the country
in which it is to be bred, and then in
telligently managed, is one of the most
profitable of domesticated animals. In
this country, as also in Great Britain,
there is constant improvement in the
character and value of sheep. During
The past thirty-five years the average
weight of the feeces produced has
doubled. This is partially due to tho
fact that the sheep have been better
cared for in every way than formerly.
and more intelligently managed. This
last with special reference to the
marked and steady improvement in
breeding. We would not by any means
advise farmers to sell out and go into
sheep husbandry, but rather to com.
bine that with their other pursuits.
They should not select sheep for wool.
growing alone, but try to get good
fleece and heavy carcass of mutton
from the same animal. At the same
time the demands of the times are for
an early maturing carcass in sheep as
well as in cattle, and it Is found that
where mutton sheep have to be fed at
all with special crops the earlier they
are matured the less likely they are to
seat their heads off, and, of course,
the greater the net profit to be derived
from them. An eve that raises two
lambs besides the wool clip pays her
owner 200 per cent. on the money in
vested in her. Besides, this money
comes in from April to August, dur
ing period at which many farmers
have nothing else to turn into ready
money for current expenses. Then,
again, sheep droppings form one OF the
best manures for grass lands and for
cereal crops. One hundred sheep pro-
duce much valuable manure in the
course of a year and are worth their
keep for that purpose. American Agri-
culturist

A. CRY OF REBELLION
Ascending From ,Newfoundiand, without
Regard to Party.

htBhru W iuTNts
Great excitement exists in Newfound-
land over the action of the Imperial
government in referring only one fea-
ture of the fisheries troubles with
France to arbitration, and the attempt-
ed passage of an act through the British
parliament to coercc N,wfo midland
into carrying out the modus vivendi.
Dispatches were submitted to the legis-
lature Saturday which showed that,
although the British governmt mt de-
termined months ago to introduce a
coercion law into parliament, and
privately notified Gov. O'Brien to that
effect, they instructed him not to in
form. the Newfoundland government
of this intention until the bill was form
ally introduced In the house of lords
The knowledge of this fact has set the
people wild. In the legislature party
lines have been obiiterated, and the
most violent speeches have been made
on both sides of the house denouncing
''the cowardly and treacherous con-
duct of the British government.
Delegates will be appointed to
Immediately proceed to London to
formally protest, not only against the
enactment of the coercion law, but
also against the reference of any por-
ton of the fisheries question to arbitra'
ton, without the whole question Is Sc
referred. The delegates. however, dc
not expect to accomplish anything, and
in this event the legislature will pas
resolutions setting forth that by the
neglect and ill-treatment of n century
England has forfeited all claims to fur
ther allegiance A formal appeal will
then be made to the United States for
protection and for admission as state
Of the republic.
