Bro. Pusey attended the HUI
ron democratic convention June
%. Bro. Healey attended the
Huron populist convention June
%. They are bitter enemies,
and each has a stilleto up his
sleeve for the other. But-when.
chairman Pusey invited Bro.
Healey to come into the demo-
cratic convention Bro. Healey
went-and Pusey's smile has
thrown a shadow around every
gasoline lamp in town ever
since.

1t isreported that Thos. STRAIT
ton, recently foreman OF the
Gazette Office, will start a demo.
cratic newspaper in Miller. Does
this imply that Bro. Hedley
thinks the days of popullsm are
numbered, and wants to have a
democratic paper in the field run
by his foreman? Bro. Healey
charges that Bro. Pusey is at
the bottom OF this democratic
paper to "bust up the pop
party which has fed him. But
who knows?.

Last week before going to the
Huron convention, Bro. Healey
wrote another one OF his pipe
dreams. This time it was about
Bushfeld, republican, having
captured pusey, democrat. And
the article came out III the Ga
zette on the very day that Rro.
Healey walked into the arms OF
Bro. Pusey at Huron Now u

And if came to pass-that the
democrats have finally swallow
ed up the populists in South Da-
kota, as was to be expected.
The two conventions, democrats
and populists, met at Huron

ceeded TO make a platform and

Philadelphia Record.
Wool has almost ceased to be a factor in
the sheep industry, as farmers have discov-
cred that there is more money in selling
early lambs and fat wethers than TO depend
solely upon wool as a source of profit from
sheep. The fleece is simply a by-product,
and no progressive farmer now expects to
make sheep pay with the wool as the prin-
cipal source of revenue from the flock. The
majority of farmers do not have large
f1ocks. twenty-five sheep being considered
above the average and they are keps
largely because they are of valuable as
slstance on the farm in consuming weeds
and other waste materials that possess no
value. 1t is we'll known that flock of sheep
Will clear field OF weeds rapidly, and they
will also keep the pests down. While so
doing they distribute manure evenly on the
ground and press IL into the soil with their
feet. For these advantages from sheep
there are farmers who would not be with
out them, as they save labor and demand
but little attention. 1t has been frequently
demonstrated that from fields upon which
large focks of sheep have been hurdled the
yields of grain have been doubled, due to
the fertility added to the soil by the sheen.
Farmers who give their attention to early
lambs and the production of choice NUT
ton have found Southdown rams excellent
for the Improvement of the common f1ocks.
as the Southdown is hardy, and such sheep
can be kept in larger focks than the Ok
fords or Shropshires, though the latter
breeds are larger in size than the South
down. The preference for the Southdown
is also due to the fact that the grades are
excellent foragers and can subsist on
scanty heritage compared with some other
breeds or crosses. Wherever cattle are
kept sheep find also a place. as the
sheep will clean up lands upon which the
cattle may leave much that could be turned
into profit No farmer, however can ex-
pect the best results from sheep without
care; but sheep require less attention than
other animals on the farm.

killing Weeds.

Grange Homes.
The best way to kill weeds is to dig them
up with the hoe. In the case Of quack
grass it is safe also to put the weed in a
blazing fire after it is dug.
Many men have worried their heads over
the invention of a chemical weed killer. If
one could take some agreeable medicine for
weeds as he does for ague or that spring
feeling * would be a great relief from hoe
ing and blowing. The botanist of, the Yer
mont experiment station. who is an expert
in such matters, says this sort or medicine
will work in some cases. Gravel walks,
drives and tennis courts, for instance, can
be kept free from weeds by the use of GER
tain chemicals. Compounds containing
arsenic seem to be far superior to other
chemicals The trials made at the Vermont
station have included salt copper sulphate.
potassium, sulphide, kerosene, carboic acid
and sulDhuric acid.
The arsenical compounds tested were as
follows. named in the order of their merit:
Henderson's fluid weed destroyer, arseniate
of soda, Smiths weed killer, arsenical-soda
mixture In choosing between these cost,
convenience and effectiveness are to be con-
sidered. The cost is as follows, using eight
gallons to the square rod: HendersonS
weed destroyer, 40 cents TO the square rod;
arseniate of soda, cost IL cents a square
rod: arsenic-salsoda mixture, 81 cents
square rod.
for general use, especially when the eX-
pense is considered. For killing weeds in
lawns or similar places where it is desired
that useful plants shall occupy the treated
soil as soon possible Thereafter crude
carbolic acid is the most generally useful
chemical since ii is prompt in its action
and does not permanently poison the SOIL.
Sulphuric acid comes next, but IL is less
