SHEEP BENEFIT PASTURES.
They Are Great Exterminators Of
Weeds and Stimulate Rich
Growth Of Grass.

We are convinced that the addition
Of five or six head of sheep for each
cow will tend to increase the produc-
tiveness of a very weedy pasture, near
ly IL not quite to the extent Of the
amount consumed by the sheep. After
a'few years, when the weeds have been
exterminated, the relative number of
cows may be increased, but of course
the proportion of cows to sheep, as
well as the total amount Of stock that
can be proftably kept upon a given
area, will depend upon the nature OF
the soil and the vegetation, the local
ity, the climatic conditions. and so
forth.
We will not attempt to lay down any
hard and fast rule as to how many
sheep should be kept upon any farm,
but we are firmly Of the opinion that
some sheep could be probably kept
upon nearly all farms in the state.
They will not only serve to keep the
pasture free from weeds, but they will
also prove excellent scavengers for
clearing up stubble fields after harvest
and the odd corners on the farm. And,
moreover, they will yield a handsome
profit on the investment, as well as
providing the most wholesome kind of
fresh meat for the farmers family
whenever 1t is desired.
A mistake often made by farmers
who start in with small flock of
sheep to act as scavengers Is to buy
anything that anyone else may choose
to call sheep. has little wool on its
back and will eat weeds, and then treat
them as meanly as their appearance
seems to deserve. This does not pay.
Good blood, individual merit and good
care are as necessary for profitable
sheep raising as with any other kind
of stock
Buy a few good. pure bred, registered
sheep of any one of half dozen Of
the standard breeds, treat them right,
and they will do the handsome thing
by you. They will earn their keep
during the summer by destroying
weeds. but they must have good care
and feed during the winter. When a
considerable number of sheep are re-
quired and pure breeds cannot be OBJ
tanned at satisfactory prices, good
grade ewes will do, but nothing but
registered rams of high individual
merit should ever be used.
Such flock Of sheep of appropriate
size will in few years exterminate
the weeds and greatly improve the
grass Of any good native pasture. Top
dressing with manure and sowing blue
grass upon the bare spots will also be
found beneficial. If, however, the ma
tive grasses are too badly run out, 1t
may pay better to break the sod mp.
crop 1t for two or three years and then

PosTMEN EATEN BY TIGERS
Native Mail Carriers Of India Take No
Precautions and Many Per-
ish Each Year.

Twenty-seven native postmen were
killed and eaten by tigers and other wild
beasts last year in India, while no fewer
than 1876 met their deaths through being
bitten by poisonous snakes, says Lon
don report.
These figures throw lurid light on
the conditions incident to the delivery
of letters in some parts of our great
eastern empire.
But, then, 1t must be remembered that
India is a large country, and the ordi-
nary rural carrier simply will not take
precautions.
He insists, for instance, on going bare
footed and bafelegged in regions known
to be infested with venomous reptiles.
and he will calmly lie down for nap
in tiger-haunted jungle.
Moreover, he persists in wearing q
number Of small bells about his person.
The jingling of these as he joys along,
he says, serves to scare away the snakes.
This may or may not be so. But 1t most
certainly gives warning Of his where
abouts to lurking tigers and proving
panthers.
Nor can he be induced to arm HIM
self properly. All his forefathers car
ried, when on similar errands, was q
small spiked stick. And that is all your
true native postman will consent to
carry to-day.
lit is doubtful, though, whether he is
in more danger than the postman who
delivers the mails in many Of the little
out-of-the-way Alpine villages. In the
winter time these men literally take
their lives in their hands, and even dur
ing the summer months they have to be
constantly on their guard against ava
lanches.
This will easily be understood when
1t is stated that there are several post
Offices in Switzerland at height OF 900
and 5000 feet; while pillar box on the
very summit of the Laugaud, and from
which four collections are made daily,
is nearly 10000 feet above the sea level.
Near here, some few years back, three
letter carriers we're crushed to death by
an icefall. They were returning to-
gether for companionship. having de-
livered their letters, and persisted stimuli
taneously.
In an adjacent canton, in the summer
Of 1863, a postman fell into crevasse
while crossing a glacier, his two full
bags on his back. All efforts to recover
either the body or the mails were fruit
less. But "a years afterwards, in 1897
that is to say, the glacier vomited forth
its prey many miles lower down the
valley. and the long-lost letters were
duly delivered to as many of the ad-
dresses as could be traced.
Not infrequently, too, these Alpine
postmen are attacked by the huge, fierce
eagles that soar hungrily above many
of the Hottest and least frequented
passes.

HOGS AND THEIR CARE.

It is a fact that has been widely
commented upon that with swine
raised in the corn belt the constant
tendency is toward a too great fine
ness of bone and general weakness
of the muscular system, which is
caused by the excessive feeding OF
corn for many generations.
Barb wire Is very poor material for
a hog fence. 1t can hardly be made
close enough or strong enough to pre-
vent shoat from crawling through.
A board fence makes perhaps the
most secure Enclosure for hogs, but Its
expense precludes its use generally
except for yards and pens.
All purchased hogs should be quar-
antined after arriving at the farm till
all danger OF contagion Is past.
The pen and yard for the boal
should be separate from the rest OF
the herd and out OF sight Of It.
In laying the foundation for hero
of swine 1t is better to have one goof
SOW than several poor ones.
After the framework of the boar ha.
reached the desired size the ANNA
should receive only enough feed t:
keep him in good condition.

MOST. VALUABLE MANURE.
If You Have Neglected to Save Poul-
try Yard Fertilizer, Turn
Over q New Leaf.

Poultry manure accumulates rapidly
but 1t can be SO treated as not only to be
Of greater value, but also to lessen the
disagreeable odor to a certain extent
The roosts should be SO arranged that
the droppings will fall on platform.
Keep the platform covered half an
inch thick with well-sifted, fine, dry dirt
or ashes. To do this first scatter the
dirt or ashes and then over this sprinkle
handful Of kainit German potash
salt), which will arrest the escape OF
ammonia and prevent too rapid decom-
position. Two or three times a week
daily is better sweep the platform with
broom. After It is clean, sprinkle the
platform and room with a solution Of q
tablespoonful of carbolic acid in a gal
lon of water, and then scatter the dry
dirt on the platform.
All the materials of the manure heap
should be fine. When the fowls are al
work on the manure heap, they not only
find quite an amount of waste material
but perform excellent service in render
ing the manure fine.
All eAceileHt pldH is 10 tHToW all the
manure in a heap, allow the hens to
work on it, and then remove the manure
to a large heap, which permits of its
being more intimately mixed with any
kind of absorbent material. A flock of
a dozen hens will save portion of their
food IL allowed to scratch over the ma
nure, as there is always more or less
food that passes through animals which
has not been appropriated or digested.
This manure is more valuable than the
same quantity Of guano. and will be
found most excellent in corn hills or po-
tato drills, and there is nothing better
for top-dressing onions. 1t should not
be applied in the raw state as top dress
ing, as 1t is entirely too strong in this
shape and will burn the seed that 1t
comes in direct contact with. But.
rightly handled, no manure is better
adapted for garden purposes.-Cincin-
natl Commercial Tribune.

TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About Food.

When there's no relish to any food and
all that one eats doesn't seem to do any
good then Is the time to make turn
over in the diet, for that's Natures way
of dropping hint that the food isn't the
kind required.
For a number Of years followed
railroad work, much OF 1t being ofice
work of trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest and eating too much
and too quickly Of food such as is COM
monty served in hotels and restaurants,
these together with the sedentary habits
were not long In giving me dyspepsia
and stomach trouble which reduced my
weight from 205 to 100 pounds.
There was little relish in any food and
none of 1t seemed to do me any good. 1t
seemed the more ate the poorer got
and was always hungry before another
meal, no matter how much had eaten.
Then l commenced fair trial OF
Grape-Nuts and was surprised how a
small saucer of It would carry me along,
strong and with satisfied appetite. until
the next meal, with no sensations OF
hunger. weakness or distress as before.
Il have been following this diet now
for several months and my improvement
has been so great all the others in my
family have taken up the use Of Grape
Nuts with complete satisfaction and
much Improvement in health and brain

Among the ruined cities of Peru near

these are many double whistling jars
or musical water bottles. Near the top
of the first or front jar, which is usually
surmounted by human or animal fig
.ure, Is the opening of the whistle.
When the jars have been partly filled
and are swung backward and forward,
number of whistling sounds are pro-
duced. AS the vessel swings forward
and upward the water is lowered in the
first jar and rises In the other. In the
backward motion IT rushes back into the
first, forcing the air out through the
whistle.

The Retail Price Of Meat.

When the public Is better educated
in the art Of buying meat there will be
closer ratio In price between the
values Of live stock on the hoof and
the carcasses on the block. Compare
lively few people want anything but
the best cuts, though 1t is shown
chemically that there is fully as much
nutrition in the cheaper parts. The
result Of the wholesale demand for
porterhouse, sirloin or rib roasts keeps
this part Of the carcass up to a high
figure. while the lower half has to sell
for cost price or less. This is why.
according to the best authorities, the
choice meats sell high regardless OF
the price Of live cattle.-Chicago Drov-
ers' Journal.
