We have the following inquiry from
central Illinois: 81 have $50 acres OF
large corn, 200 acres OF stubble seed
ed with clover. Can feed this corn
field successfully with sheep to get rid
Of the weeds, and II so what aged
sheep, what breed and how many
should | getT
Where corn grows tall and large, as
II does on the Illinois river bottoms.
II is entirely feasible to run sheep in
the cornfields with great benefit to the
sheep, the corn and the land. The
sheep will clean up the weeds, ferti-
lie the soil, do no injury TO the corn
unless ii is down and make a lot of
mutton from what would otherwise
be utterly waste material. Lambs
would be preferable to old sheep. as
they would not be apt to ride the corn
down to get at the ears, which old
sheep will sometimes do. Western
sheep will do for stock. To properly
cover the area of these fields there
should be ut least 1000 sheep, and
these should be under the constant care
of one or more herdsmen or shepherds
and trained dogs. The question OF
whether the flock could be rounded up
at night from such a growth Of corn
would, we think, settle itself after
few days with bells on the sheep, good
dogs and careful shepherds. One thing
should be observed, and that Is not to
give the sheep the run Of the cornfield
In wet weather. The sheep will eat all
the weeds, or nearly all, and Will eat
all the leaves of the corn they can
reach Given a dry fall, the corn itself
has been very successfully fed of In
more northern ATTITUDES, where the
stalk is OF shorter growth, with great
economy and profit We regard the
running of sheep in our cornfelds as
entirely feasible and practical when it
is properly done.

turned from a summer vacation and
found that his home had been entered

Especial to ''The Jersey City News'')
TRENTON, Sept 27, 1905. Major
Lenez was visitor at the Capitol yes
terday. He called upon Governor Stokes
whom he enlightened on the subject of
Essex politics. The talk was, he said,
absolutely informal.
Banking and Insurance Commissioner
David O. Watkins and former Speaker
Boyd Avis both called on the Governor
and assured him that everything was
hooking very bright in Gloucester County.
Mr.. Watkins said that the differences
with the Loudenslager faction, which had
been fought out at the primaries. were
now thing of the past, and he believed
all factions would unite in supporting
Mr.. Avis for the position of Senator,
and would work for the entire Republi-
can ticket The Loudenslager people, he
said, had assured Mr.. Avis of their sup
port, and while Mr.. Watkins was not in
clined to accept this as foregone CON
clusion, he expressed confidence that the
ticket would win, whatever might be the
attitude Of the Loudenslager followers.
He, of course, realized that with only
passive support from one wing of the
party the fight would be much harder
than with an undivided party.
The reports from Monmouth County
which We're brought to the State House
to-day We're unanimously gloomy for the
Republican leaders. The dissatisfaction
which had been made manifest as the re-
suit of the nomination of former Senator
G. Asa Francis for Sheriff. seems TO be
growing rather than abating. To-day it
was more or less openly limited that the
Republican leaders are fearful that they
may not only lose the sheriff hut that the
chances Of re-electing Senator Oliver H.
Brown may be in danger BY the fight for
sheriff.
The announcement of the Democratic
nomination against Francis is awaited
with much interest BY the G. o. P. lead
ers. who think they have detected s.gns
of a popular upheaval in the county.
