SHEEP N THE coRNF1ELD.

SHEEP IN THE CORNF1ELD.
We have the following inquiry from
central Illinois: II 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 If so what aged
sheep, what breed and how many
should get?'
Where corn grows tall and large, as
it does on the Illinois river bottoms,
it 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-
lize the soil, do no injury to the corn
unless it is down and make lot Of
mutton from what would otherwise
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

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 growth Of corn
would, we think, settle itself after a
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 cornt1eld
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 dry fall, the corn itself
has been very successfully fed off 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. -, -...

SHEEP KILL WEEDS.

A reader wants to know what the
sheep will do for the morning glory
or bindweed, which is such a pest in
the corndelds of the corn belt. The
sheep Is the natural enemy of this
weed pest and will eat every spear Of
it down to the ground. American
farmers have not yet learned how very
valuable the sheep Is as weed de-
stroyer or more Of them would be kept
for this purpose alone If for no
other. We are firm believer In the
keeping of cooperative focks Of sheep,
focks Of sheep owned by three or more
farmers in a community, to be pas
tured on the owners fields under the
care Of a shepherd, thus keeping the
highways trimmed up and the fields
free from weeds. The plan Is entirely
feasible and does away with the need
Of expensive fencing and gives the
sheep the run Of all the land.

WOOD FOR PAVING.

It ts interesting to note the return
to wooden blocks for paving purposes
In this age OF brick and asphalt. Re
ports show that in England, where
these creosoted wooden blocks have
been used for paving, soft wood thus
treated has life of from twelve to
fifteen years, while hard woods last
from three to four years longer, and
this when subjected to the heaviest
kind of traffic. The noiselessness Of
this type Of paving and the excellent
footing which it gives to horses are
great recommendations In it's favor.
Two species of wood from Australia
are said to be the best suited for this
purpose -. kam and jarrah - though
Australian and California gums are
also used with good results.
