shenn ON the Clearing.

Wherever woodland is cleared a flock
OF sheep is extremely valuable to keep
the cleared soil from being overgrown
with bushes, weeds and shrubs which
usually come up In the following years,
says the "Cultivator." 1t Is desirable to
get the cleared land in grass as soon as
possible. When 1t Is once seeded down
it may be pastured with sheep all
through the summer, not only without
inturing the grass. but positively bene-
fitting 1t, as the sheep will devote most
Of their time to trimming down the
bushes and eating the leaves which
shade the land. To make more thor
ough destruction OF the shrubbery, an
excess Of sheep should be put in the
cleared lot, and these must be fed some
grain, so as to make their browse diet
digest better.

Doamodium for nny.

Surprising the seed to have been
sown in April, the first cutting may be
looked for about the last week Of July.
II considerable crabgrass is mixed
with 1t, 1t will be a benefit rather than
otherwise, for the desmodium is apt to
grow with rather large, coarse stalks
the first year, and the crabgrass will
help to keep them smaller.
Leave the cut grass about half day
to wilt, then haul to the barn. First
place layer two feet deep on the floor,
then lay rails across, resting on the
logs-supposing 1t is q log barn-then
another layer OF hay. then more rails,
and so on to the top Of the barn. It
will generally keep well, as the layers
OF hay in drying will shrink down be-
low the rails, leaving air spaces.
Leave the stubble about six inches
long, and 1t will send up shoots at
once for the second crop, which will,
or may be made, a better one than the
first The stems will be smaller, and
the harvesting in September will be in
drier weather, when the hay can be
secured in better condition.
The first crop may have rather thick
stems. some of them perhaps as large
as lead pencil. But If run through
Baldwin fodder cutter and reduced to
one-inch lengths, it will be eaten up to
the last piece; that is. If cured bright
and with its natural sweetness not
washed out OF 1t by exposure>to rains
in haying time. The hay may be
somewhat dusty; If so, 1t should be
sprinkled a little when fed to horses,
but for cattle this is not necessary.
Good desmodium hay is worth more
than the Northern hay brought down
here.
