to be Profitable.
Buckwheat and rye for fall and win
ter pasture, turnips, rutabagas and
winter cabbages can be sown in many
cases after the wheat and oats are har-
vested and yet give good yield. "A
good way to put in rye is to sow the
seed broadcast among the corn just be-
fore the last cultivation. In majority
of cases, unless the corn is foul with
weed seeds, this is all that will be
necessary. By the time the corn is har.
vested and hauled off the rye will have
made such a growth as to afford con-
siderable amount of feed in the fall
and early winter.
Buckwheat is good crop to grow for
green manuring. Its quick growth, in
addition to the effect produced upon the
soil, places it next to clover to plow
under as green fertilizer.
Wheat or oat stubble can be broken
up and the seed sown broadcast and
narrowed in and q sufficient growth
will be secured before frost to turn un'
der good layer as fertilizer. If de-
sired, in anything like a fair season, a
good crop of grain may be secured.
Buckwheat makes good feed for win.
ter as the grain can be fed as a change
to nearly all kinds OF stock to an adj
vantage.
OF the three root crops rutabagas
should be sown first, as they require
longer time to make good growth
than the others Turnips should be
sown next, if any difference is made,
and then the radishes, although good
phn is to mix turnip and radish seeds.
From the middle to the latter part OF
July is considered good time to SOW
the seed. The best rule to follow is tc
sow whenever the soil is in condition
to secure good termination. Prepare
the soil nicely and then SOW the seed
just after rain, sowing broadcast
taking pains to scatter as evenly as
possible over the ground and then
cover with a light harrow or brush
These can often be sown where early
crops have already matured and may
be considered catch crops because they
occupy the ground only short time
and that to considerable extent aftel
the first crops have made their growth
OF course in very dry season thes'

JUDGING SHEEP.
The Proper Way of Testing the Length
and Fineness of Fleece.

and Fineness Of a Fleece.
A sheep farmer who is growing for
wool as well as mutton should be
good Judge of wool, so that he may de.
termine the comparative values of his
feeces. In judging, there must be a
standard, and this standard must have
due regard to fineness, to length OF
staple, and to density. In judging as
to fneness, says Dakota Farmer, COM
mence at the shoulders, as there the
finest wool is always to be found. This
may be taken as the standard and com.
pared with the wool from the ribs, the
thigh and the rump, and the nearer
the wool from the various portions Of
the animal approaches this standard
the better the fleece is. If the result is
satisfactory it is pronounced as to fine
ness very "even." In scrutinizing the
length of the staple, if the wool from
the ribs, thigh and back approximate
reasonably in length to that of our
standard, the fleece is again pro.
nounced as regards length Of staple
true and even." The density of the
fleece is then examined by closing the
hand upon the portions of the rump
and loin wool, as these parts are usual
ly the most faulty. If this point proves
satisfactory it is pronounced even as to
density. The density is the most diff
cult to determine, as in it touch must
be the sole guide, the eye not being de.
pended upon, as in the other examine
tions. To summarize these proofs, if the
fleece is of nearly equal fineness and
length on shoulder, rib and back, and
of density on shoulder, rump and loins,
we have model sheep for producing

recollections into patriotic mythology, and
of welding into general heroism, that which
was but lately partisan and fiercely sensational
1t is pleasing duty to record Mr.. Towards sue

his deficiency. He has written a war drama
with comedy pen. and this is not to be urged
against him, as it is the only pen he has. But
this comedy pen is dramatic pen, the words Of
shenandoah are not those of rivet, hammer
and scissors. They reside not in the tramp OF
the passing regiment, but in the suspirations Of
the war epoch 1t is not the marching and
noise of armed hosts, but the calm agony Of
human hearts, the strange relationship of old
friends, the wreck of hopes, and the break down
of love in the tempest of passion that holds at
tention till the atmosphere clears, and the cruel
war is over.

They say concerning exploring possibilities:
The researches carried on thus far have
shown that the region is most interesting
one, both geographically and geologically. The
great Aalaspina glacier on the seward flank of
the rsnCe appears to be unique, and ii is be-
iteved that further study of IL will throw
much light upon glacial phenomena else
where. Moreover. the partial ascent and
measurement of the height Of Mount ST. Elias
made last year have aroused the keenest inter

as the space was very narrow the approach OF

over. Fireman Williams saw her fall and the
engine was stopped before IL had passed more
than 100 feet beyond the spot. Super
intendent Corey was standing on the rear
OF the car. and as he glided by,
one of the women shrieked. Mr.. Corey, not
knowing what the matter was. thought it was
the salute to which he has frequently been
treated of late and tipped his hat. But the
woman continuing the screaming, he was just
beginning to realize that there was something
wrong when the rain stopped
