to dispense with it entirely; and vet we
know that with the exercise of a little
patience and resolute self-denial. even
this has been done to the credit and
happiness of all concerned. In buvino
on credit one generally realizes that
he is paying more for his goods than do
cash customers, and the dealer knows
that credit purchaser will buy much
more than he would if he was buying for
cash. Herein is double evil. One
wants only twenty dollars worth of
goods, and because he hasn't the cash
with which to pay for them is called
upon to pay twenty-five dollars. Then
he sees so many things around the store
that he has wanted SO long, and which
if he had them would add to the com,
fort and pleasure of his wife and fam
lily, and he Is tempted to add another
twenty-five dollars worth to his store
account, and is on the merchants books
for full fifty. This is large sum of
money, but he feels that after harvest.
or after he has sold his hogs or his cat
tie or his corn, he can readily and
easily pay it. But when that time
comes he finds that he hasn't cent
more than is called for in the
purchase of things absolutely
necessary to run the house or
the farm, and in very many in
stances instead Of paying his store ac-
count first he leaves it unpaid for a
more convenient season, and adds to it

SHEEP IN THE ORCHARD.

Not Thrive.

They Keep Down Weeds and Insects Dc
Not Thrive.
II properly managed, the orchard
may be pastured profitably by sheep
The only essential is not to pasture toe
closely and to have it so arranged as to
turn in the sheep from the yards in the
morning and take them out when they
get restless and rambling. as this is the
stage when they reach up for the
limbs and hunt for branch where the
bark is tender. In Benton county we
kept down the weeds and grass in a
large orchard for ten years with sheen
without spelling single tree
by disbarking. If the pasturape
alone was the main consideration,
IL would not pay to turn the
sheep in and out But experience has
proven that the orchard insects do not
thrive where the sheep run. With the
sheep in the orchard our apples had less
worms, and the leaf-eating insects.
thrlps, etc., were not as common and
destructive as in orchards near by
where grass and weeds grew. The COM
mon belief of nurserymen and fruit
growers is that the sheep and goat are
the natural enemies and eradicators of
trees and shrubs. 1t is true of the goat,
out sensibly managed ''the animal
with the golden hoof'' is the friend of
the nurseryman and orchardist. Year
after year / have turned them into
the nursery rows after we had quit
cultivating. 1t was interesting to
watch their quick and eager search for
the tender weeds. OF course. when
their appetite was satisfied they were
turned out for the day. In the corn
neid they proved an equally satisfac-
tory way of gathering up the weeds in
early August. In many other ways
the sheep, and a boy, cleaned up the
unsllghtly places. Where clean work
OF a big weed patch or hazel corner was
wanted we had hurdle fence panels to
throw around them, and the sheep were
kept there until the work was done.
In hundred-acre pasture on the old
homestead we hada corner of about ten
acres in hazel brush, with here and
there a young, bushy-topped elm, oak,
wild cherry, etc. This was fenced in
for the sheep when not on their for.
aging expeditions during the growing
season. When the sheep were sailed Il
was by brining the'l caves of the taller
hazel brush. In two years the brush
was killed, and in four years rich
mating OF grass took it's place among
the growing shade trees. l wish to
make 1t emphatic that the sheep, prop
sriy managed. is the helper and friend |
u the horticulturist But in late fall,
winter and early spring, the place for
he sheep is the feed lots and sheds.
When tree bark is the only obtainable
,reen thing, the sheep will decide that
was made for their use.-Prof. J. l. /
