THE COMING COUNTRY FOR PRIZE
SHEEP.

Those who have watched the exhibits
made in the line of sheep in the various
states have noticed that the larger proper
ton of the prize winning animals have been
bred in Britain or imported from Canada.
1t has been thus during many years in the
past. 1t is likely to be so for many years to
come 1t arises in part from the fact that
Great Britain is noted for succulent foods
which it produces and the same is true to
a certain extent of the province of Ontario.
The climate of the former country is also
equab1e and thus favors the full and per-
feet development of the sheep. We cannot
help but think, however, that the time is
coming when sheep as good as those pur-
chased in Britain will be grown in the
United States between the Cascade noun
tains and the Pacific. In that country all
the grasses requisite grow in finest form.
The climate is so mild that sheep can Craze
out on the pastures during nearly all the
winter. The temperature is so equable
that in this respect it is almost perfect Field
roots can be grown in that country in finest
form and the same is true of legumes of
nearly all kinds in addition to good crops of
all the small cereals Corn is about the only
product that does not grow there in good
form. This means that an opportunity is
furnished for growing the very finest classes
of sheep AS far as we know, not very
much attention has been given as yet to
growing such stock in the area named. OF
course sheep have been grown there and
in good form, but there probably are not
many Aocks purely bred with reference to
the growing of which owners have tried to
see how high standard they could bring
them to. The finest hocks of sheep will
doubtless Craze in due time where the inn
mense forests of fir and cedar grow at the
present time. These can Craze among the
stumps to remove which would be very ex-
pensive and also laborious.- The ST. Paul

THE RANCH.

There is another important lesson to be
learned, and that is how to pull the apples
off. Teach your thinners to take hold of
the bunch of apples with their left hands and
with the right turn the apples to be removed
backwards, when they will snap off. Don't
make straight pull, for in many cases the
whole bunch will come off.
Remember to thin the lower limbs more
heavily than the top limbs Apples will
grow larger as rule and color better on
the top of the tree than on the lower limbs.
The man who makes study of thinning
apples will learn that pruning is an import
ant auxiliary to thinning. tree we'll
thinned out with the pruning knife will re-
quire less hand thinning than the thick,
bushy tree. But pruning cannot take the
place of thinning, and thinning cannot take
the place of pruning. They are auxiliary to
each other but one cannot be substituted
for the other.
Would you cultivate an apple orchard?
By all means. Would you grow clover in
an orchard? 1t is good fertilizer, and will
do good if ploughed under. The same is
true of peas, rape and the vetches. Some
orchards need these nitrogen gatherers.
Study these things and proceed intelligent
ly. How would you cultivate an orchard?
We use the disc cut-away and the Acme
harrow. The disc digs up the ground and
the Acme pulverizes it, These two nipple
ments are all that is needed in an ordinary
orchard. Use a spreading disc and an or
chard spanner on your Acme.
How often would you cultivate your or
chard? AS often as | irrigate. Fallow each
irrigation with cultivation. Thoroughly pull
verize the surface This will consume the
moisture and require less water to keep the
soil in good condition. I find about three
irrigations for the summer to be about right
if the soil is thoroughly pulverized after
each application of water.
Would you cultivate your orchard where
you do not irrigate. Certainly. Why? To
conserve the moisture and to keep down the
weeds. 1t is more necessary to conserve
the moisture where irrigation is not prac-
ticed than where it is.
If Our trees need water, we can give it to
them. Where rain is depended upon this
is not the case. Some body has said that
where we irrigate we do not need to pray
for rain, but we simply open pipe and let
it run. Is not fruit better raised without
irrigation than with it? Why? A man was
once informed that certain other man
claimed that fruit is better where rain is
depended on than where we irrigate. His
reply was: "Tel1 the blockhead that water
is water whether it comes down in showers
or is conveyed in ditch"
The fact is that fruit raised in an irri-
gated country is better than where irri-
cation is not needed The reason is not

Horticultural Notes
By F. Walden

is too early, for we cannot tell at that early
stage what apples will drop. The fore part
of July is good time but the work may
very properly begin about the 18th of June.
The beginner will stand appalled, at
the idea of going over his orchard and thin
ming his apples by hand, tree by tree and
limb by limb But it will not prove to be
nearly so great a. task as it seems. 1t pays
immensely. The more money that must be
spent in thinning, the more there will be
to put into the bank when the crop is sold
For every dollar spent in thinning there will
be ten to put into the bank that you would
not have without this work
1t is not easy to lay down rules for thin
ming. Only some general directions
can be given Some men fail in this line of
work because they want to look on the
ground to see how many have been pulled
off The point to be considered is not how
many are taken off, but how many are LETT
on. 1t becomes evident then that we can
not say what part or what per cent. should
be taken off, All depends what is left
when the thinning is finished. In some
cases one-fourth is taken off in other cases
one-ha1f, two-thirds, three-fourth four
ffths or more.
that is not an easy question to answer If
a tree is thickly set all over a very good rule
is to thin to one in place. This will do
very we'll with Ben Davis, Rome Beauty,
and apples that set as these do, but it will
not do in the case of Missouri Pippins and
others like it in its habits of growth With
these varieties you will have to lay down the
rule to leave one apple every four or five
inches apart.
But let us come back to the Ben Davis.
If the tree is evenly set all over and you
thin to one in a place, the apples will all
be large enough-will nearly all pack four
tiers. That is large enough. Three tier
apples are too large and are not profitable.
Ben Davis, too large to pack tours will not
keep as we'll as the smaller ones. But sup
pose that your tree is not evenly set, and
some places have none or very few, and
some places they are thickly set In this
case you need not rigidly adhere to the
one-in-a-place rule" If you have large
orchard and have to put ten to twenty hands
to thinning, then you need an experienced
foreman to stay right with these hands and
direct them. Many hands work like auto
nations and if they are thinning to one in
a place and come to tree having but few
apples on it, they will apply the rule and
thin to one in place unless perhaps no
thinning is needed at all. But the foreman
who is looking ahead as well as back can
say: "Skip that tree" or chin lightly"
But how can we get experienced fore
men? The best way I know is to raise
them. The owner of an orchard must take
a hand in this work. Let him begin with
his trees when they are young and need but
little thinning, and gradually he will learn

Franklin in Frills and Laces.

The name of Benjamin Franklin in
Farlably conjures up a mental picture Of
man dressed in 1.-The seVerest style Of
oIu hnickerbocker days, says the New
YORK Herald. History tells us that this
eminent statesman was as fond of plain
clothes and plain living as he was Of
pam speech, and yet there was a time
When Benjamin Franklin revealed in all
the trllls and furbelows of the elfete
court of Louis Seize.
The picture done by Quentin de la Tour
shows the inventor of the lightning rod
as he looked on state occasions when am
passador to France. 1t appears to be
something of curiosity, for it presents
FRANKLIN IN an entirely new guise
When. in 1776. Congress sent this man
across the water to negotiate with
france, he probably hadn't a periwig or
trllled and jewelled waistcoat TO his
name but, arriving among nation So
DAINTY and exquisite in dress, it was only
natural that the plain man should be
metamorphosed into something of a but
terny, in appearance at least.
AS he himself once expressed his posi-
ton; Being myself honored with visits
from persons of quality and distinction,
l was obliged for the credit of the prov
ince to live in a fashion and expense
suitable TO the public character l sus-
tanned. and much more above what
should have done II l had been consider
ed merely as private person"
Herein lies the excuse for the fashion
able costume in which De la Tour has
portrayed him; The flowing curled wig
imparts different appearance to the
rugged and we'll rounded face The bis
cult colored coat, with its trimming of
hne lace rutfies, gives the rotund figure
a strange effect, and yet the whole is eX-
tremely pleasing. 1t is strange only be-
cause Americans are unaccustomed 10
seeing this man of our fancy dressed as
those eXquisites among whom he spent
several years.
Though Franklin conformed to the die
tates of fashion while living in France
ne attended as few functions as possible
ana probably only when he was TO APP
pear before the King did he undergo the
trial of getting himself into periwig and
patches, Gout was the excuse me Of
fered for absentng himself fro4 affairs
at court, and that the man G uttered
keenly from this attliction hasf1-en re-
corded by himself. ~
