MOVABLE SWILL BARREL.
the Farmhouse in n Clean and
Tidy Condition.

In order for the farmer and his fami-
ly to remain healthy and contented,
it is imperative that every thing 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 a stationary one, in back
yard or front, is about the biggest and
in summer the most dangerous (pes-
tiferously 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,

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Sunflower 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,
dampness 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 a reasonably
sharp appetite, and they will lay more
eggs which will hatch better and pro-
duce stronger chickens.-St. Louis Re-
public

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 ~ per cent. of sugar. In
New York state the yields have been
from IA to IS tons per acre in some
localities, one plot producing &c tons
per acre. The percentage of sugar has
also been high, some samples giving
II and 10 per cent, the average being
IA per cent. 1t is possible to grow oyer
four tons of sugar per acre with the
aid of bcets. This industry is apparent
ly slow to take hold on large scale,
but it is believed that in the course
of time it will be regular feature OF

TRAITS OF SHEEP.
The Flock still Follows the Leader
just as 1t Did Before 1t Be-
came Demonstrated.

When sheep are driven through q
narrow gate-say, for reckoning pur-
poses-a very common performance is
fors~ne sheep to give leap as if over
an obstacle or across a ditch. If one
gives leap all the others to the rear
of it on reaching the same spot follow
its example. Wild sheep always APP
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 DR. Louis Robinson's
work, entitled wild Traits in Tame
Animals" when sheep in a 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 a three
foot jump is necessary to clear some
dangerous spot every sheep in the pro-
cession will take three-foot jump; if
he jumps higher they will jump higher,
and so on. They carry out this inn
itated action with a most extraordi-
nary precision, even when it has to be
transmitted through a 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.

CROPS AS MANURE.
This System of FertiIizing Does No,
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
piowed 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 Partially for some substances
which are beyond the ability of plants
of a different kind. One crop may
be preparatory for another, hence
the blowing under of crop is not a
loss, but gain. In England the tur.
nips are regarded as a 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 wheI
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 season.--Farmers' Journal.

times one application will entirely kill

Irrigation Before PInntipr

Irrigation of the soil before planting
is very important and profitable, and
very simple. To have this it is only
necessary to pillow 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 off properly the
land is to be plowed, narrowed and
planted. This enables the crop to get
a good start, and it will stand well.
There is no better irrigaton.-Dakota

ocean IS Major A. G. Bishop, of us Third

rlence and considerable prominence in his
profession. He was assistant engineer on the
Hudson River Railroad in 1850 and has
since conducted large engineering opera
tons. He has been located in Detroit, since
1915, and has large acquaintance among the
business men and citizens of this city.
Two years ago, for the first time, Major
Bishop was in the hospital. For two months
he had the best of medical attendance, but
when he was discharged he was not like the
Major Bishop of old. When asked regard
ing his health, he said: "When / had my
last spell of sickness and came out of the
hospital was sorry sight, could not gain
my strength, and could not walk over block
