CROPS AS MANURE.
Bring In Quick Returns, But 1t
Is Profitable.

Such crops as turnips, rye, buck.
wheat and crimson clover assist in re.
ducing the plant food in the soil and
making it possible for crops the sue.
ceeding year to utilize the plant food
plowed under in the manure crop. All
soils contain unavailable matter that
the farmer needs. There are crops that
do not have the power to break down
the chemical compounds existing in the
soils, but there are other crops which
have a partiality for some substances
which are beyond the ability of plants
Of different kind. One crop may
be preparatory for another, hence
the plowing under of crop is not a
loss, but gain. In England the tur.
nips are regarded as renovator of the
soil, and the seed is broadcasted over
the surface, sheep being allowed &C.
cess to the turnips after they have ma.
tured. The turnips can feed on al.
most anything in the soil, and wher
eaten by sheep the gain of mutton and
manure gives the farmer a profit, but
the English farmer attaches as much
value to the increased fertility of his
soil as he does to the product which
he markets therefrom. 1t may be
urged, as some have done, that green
crops can add no mineral matter to the
soil other than it takes therefrom,
which is true; but such crops render
the mineral matter available for the
next eason.--Farmers' Journal.

TRAITS OF SHEEP.
The Flock stiII Follows the Leader
Just as 1t Did Before 1t Be
came DOmesticated.

When sheep are driven through
narrow gate-say, for reckoning pur-
poses-a very common performance is
for one sheep to give leap as if over
an obstacle or across ditch. If one
gives leap all the others to the rear
of it on reaching the same spot follow
its example. Wild sheep always ap-
point sentinels and leaders and adopt
their ways of progression in the most
implicit manner. The origin of the
jumping habit of flock when one
gives the example is very ingeniously
explained in DIR Louis Robinson's
work, entitled "Wild Traits in Tame
Animals" when sheep in wild
state" he remarks, dash off together
among broken ground or on crowding
along some perilous ledge on the
mountain side-their usual habitat-it
would be quite useless for those in the
middle of the band to endeavor to see
obstacles at their feet. Hence each
keeps an eye on the leader, or those inn
mediately in front initiate his move
ments. If the leader thinks three
foot jump is necessary to clear some
dangerous spot every sheep in the pro-
cession will take a three-foot jump; if
he jumps higher they will jump higher,
and SO on. They carry out this inn
itated action with most extraordi-
nary precision, even when it has to be
transmitted through long chain of
| different individuals" The sheep in
dustry seems to be the safest invest
ment for the farmer. When other
crops fail the flock can always be de-
| pended upon. The wool crop is always
sure, and when sold he has small
bank account and the flock left. What
is better than sheep?-Western Plow'
man.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Sunfower seed improves the gloss Of
the plumage.
Introduce new blood among the poul-
try once year.
: Give lime for growth of bone and for
eggshell material.
Buckwheat, oatmeal and milk are
good for laying hens.
, A little cayenne pepper in the food
often stimulates laying.
! Good leghorn hens may be kept until
they are five years old.
The usual causes of roup are cold,
ydampness and exposure.
A laying hen should have her food
and drink at regular intervals.
Do not winter late pullets that have
failed to make good growth.
If the hens show an inclination to
pull feathers, feed them salt pork.
In selecting fowls to winter, keep
one drake for every five ducks, tom
for every ten turkeys, one cock for
every dozen hens.
Keep the hens with reasonably
sharp appetite, and they will lay more
eggs which will hatch better and pro-
duce stronger chickens.-St. Louis Re
public.

Sugar Beet E1periment..

Experiments with sugar beets this
year have given very encouraging re.
suits. In the west the general rule
is to pay four dollars per ton for beets
containing 10 per cent. of sugar. In
New York state the yields have been
from IA to 1s tons per acre in some
localities, one plot producing 2e tons
per acre. The percentage of sugar has
also been high, some samples giving
n and 1s per cent, the average being
IA per cent. 1t is possible to grow over
four tons of sugar per acre with the
aid OF beets. This industry is apparent
ly slow to take hold on large scale,
but 1t is believed that in the course
of time it will be a regular feature Of
agriculture. Dakota Field and Farm.

A New York CentraI Innovation

A new YOrk central 1nnOVatlon.
George H. Daniels, of the New York Cen
tral & Hudson River Railroad, has made
an announcement which is of rather start
ling nature, but it is one which ought to
please the patrons of that great system, and
particularly those who travel on mileage
books. The circular reads as follows:
Mileage books, good for 500 miles and
1000 miles travel, are now on sale at all
stations on the New York Central divisions
and branches) at the rate of $40 and $40
respectively.
These tickets are good until used, and are
available for passage on the main line of the
New York Central, and all Of its branches
and divisions, including the Harlem, Put
nam, Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg,
Carthage & Adirondack, Geneva & Lyons
and the Adirondack Utica to MontreaD di-
visions.
Mileage books will be issued in the name
Of the head Of family or firm, and will be
available for the use of any member of such
family OF for any traveller for a firm, pro-
yided the name of such member or traveller
is written in the book by the agent selling
~ in the place designated. They will be
honored for transportation by the conduct
ors Of all trains, including limited trains, but
only to the end of the run of each conductor.
II the holder of such ticket desires to ride
beyond the run Of a conductor, or on a night
train, or to a point on branch line, he
should present his mileage ticket to the
ticket agent, who will detach the proper
mileage and issue mileage exchange ticket,
on which baggage will be checked to any sta
ton on the New York Central or any of its
branch lines, thus avoiding the necessity Of
being disturbed after retiring, or of recheck-
ing baggage the Pittsburgh Post

all wheeled away to the orchard or

est attractions mentionable for vari-
ous insects, as wasps, flies and the like.
The same is also very serviceable at
other periods of the year for convey
ing slops and milk, as well as the
wastes of the pantry and kitchen, from
the house to that place where the
swine are kept. This has been demon
strated by actual experience, we hav-
ing in mind one barrel alone that has
been in constant use for several years,
and still is not much the worse for
wear.
The illustration requires but little
explanation. AS can be seen, all that
is needed is an old wheelbarrow wheel,
two sticks for handles, fish barrel,
some wire nails of proper lenths anc
several wooden strips of differene size
for braces. The cost is therefore al.
most nothing at all, but so handy and
convenient is it that It aids much
toward making farm life grace and
10y forever.
In case one has lot of calves, and
they are out to pasture, so that the
feeding of milk to them occurs in e
trough, this movable wheelbarrow
barrel is just the thing for "wholesal

MOVABLE sWILL BARRED.
II Helps to Keep Everything About
the Farmhouse In n Clean and
Tidy Condition.

In order for the farmer and his fami-
ly to remain healthy and contented,
1t is imperative that everything about
the farmhouse be kept clean and tidy.
Indeed, the least items tending to SLOW
enliness should never be tolerated any
longer than is absolutely necessary,
for such are highly susceptible to aug
mentation, in which case they are very
liable TO breed disease and ruin. This
applies especially to the swill barrel'
OF which stationary one, in back
yard or front, is about the biggest and
in summer the most dangerous (pes-
titerously speaking) nuisance to be
met with anywhere on the farm.
Hence it is that we advocate the use
of movable swill barrel, as shown
herewith in the cut; for then, when the
warm days of summer have arrived

: irrigation before Planting.

Irrigation of the soil before planting
is very important and profitable, and
very simple. TO have this it is only
necessary toplow the land into ridges
by throwing the burrows toward each
other and run the water between the
ridges. After the water has had sufIl-
cient time to drain of properly the
land is to be plowed, narrowed and
planted. This enables the crop to get
good start, and it will stand well.
There is no better irrigation. Dakota

Scaly legs are so easily cured that
there is no excuse for allowing hocks

ease. Take the kerosene can into the

Up each hen and pour the oil right
from the spout, from the knee toward

times one application will entirely kill
the scale insects. Those that still look
badly after few days, should be kero-
