Sheen Notes.

The old idea that sheep do not need
water is a good n to get rid of. 1t
has caused many sheep a good deal OF
discomfort. Give them all the pure
water they can drink, and if they want
to go without, the conscience of he
owner will be no longer troubled.
Green feed is very important for
sheep, and this should be given even
when the pastures get dry in mid
summer. 1t pays to cut some OF the
green forage for the sheep as well as
for the cows.
When sheep are to be sold 1t pays
to fatten them moderately to give
them a good appearance. The sheep
that has an unthrifty look is not likely
to find a man anxious to purchase.
1t is well to change the pasture OF
the sheep occasionally, as M pasture
may become filthy, especially If the
weather is dry for many weeks at a
time.
Turnips are still one of the best
feeds that can be given the sheep
English turnips a be sown at any
time and will begin to produce food
for the sheep early in the summer
The English get very good results in
feeding turnips to sheep.
It is not very profitable to feed the
sheep grain in summer, unless the pas
lures are very short. Grain is not
particularly helpful to the young
lambs that are developing into sheep
Their stomachs are more adapted tc
succulent feed.
Sheep like short grass better thar
long grass and so do better on short
pastures than on long pastures. This
is true in spite of the fact tina sheer
are great weed eaters.

in this kernel to the other portions is
seen to be very large, as is also the
horny starch, while the proportion OF
protein in all forms is seen to be small.
This can be determined by taking a
sharp knife and cutting open several
kernels of corr and making compari-
sons.
The kernels having a large amount
of protein will look like the second
kernel shown here. The proportion OF
crown starch will be found to be COM
paratively small, while the horny
gluten will be found in large supply.
While a considerable portion OF the
horny matter is starch, yet this same
horny matter is so rich in protein that
1t may be accepted as a rule that the
greater the proportion of horny matter
the greater the proportion of protein
In the corn kernel. The size of the
germ also indicates the comparative
amount of protein.
Any nan that expects to do much in
the breeding of corn or even in the
growing of corn must make a study
of the plant and its seed. He must
educate himself to be able to tell by
value of different kinds of corn. This
making a mechanical analysis the real
sort Of an education is not the work

We must have q more Intense hortl-
culture II we are to realize large prof
Its from our horticultural operations.
The more intensive are our operations
the more certain will we be to reap a
rich reward for our work. In the coun-
tries that are making most out OF
their horticultural enterprises the gar
dens and orchards are living exam
pies of intensive farming.
The intensive horticulturist Is the
one that has put many years of labor
on the study Of soils, fertilization.
pruning, and development Of varie-
ties. The realm of horticulture Is In
finite, and the lore learnable about any
one operation of gardening or orchard
ing is very great. We have not yet
fully learned the lessons Of the adj
vantages of pruning or how much or
how little to prune. The nan that
becomes an expert in the raising Of
fruits, vegetables or flowers need not
sell his service to others, for he can
himself make a living from his own
labors.
Intensive horticulture is old in Eu-
rope, but new In America. We have a
land that invites us to do extensive
rather than intensive work. But 1t
cannot be doubted that in most situa-
tons and in most circumstances 1t Is
the intensive culture that pays best
here as well as in Europe.

Sleeping Places of Hogs.

The sleeping places of hogs should
be under cover at all times of year.
Build the hog house so that the
hogs cannot root under the walls and
make way for rats and mice.
Cement floors, though expensive,
are to be found very serviceable in
the hog pen, as they prevent the hogs
from roofing under the timbers. Such
floors should be well covered with
bedding.
More pigs die at narrowing time
than at any other, and for this reason
all useful appliances possible about
the pens should be adopted.
The portable hog house is not being
used extensively in many of our
states, especially in those states
where hog cholera prevails.
A portable hog house should be
large enough for half a dozen full
grown hogs.
The sides and roof of the portable
hog house should be perfectly tight.
A movable floor is a good thing to
have, but it need not be used in sum
mer.
BY keeping a few hogs only in one
house the chances of epidemics are
lessened, though this should not be
depended on to prevent such epidem-

Cool the Fruit.

Fruit should not be picked on a
warm day and put Immediately into
cold storage or into cars for shipment.
It should be put into some place where
it will have n chance to cool off and
permit the latent heat to work out.
Putting fruit into close car where
no refrigeration Is provided Is a fruit
full source of trouble in the shipping
of fruit. The heat in the fruit causes
rapid spelling, especially with fruit
that Is of short keeping quality, like
some of the apples that ripen in the
summer. If the nights are cool, fruit
can be cooled off by simply leaving 1t
over night exposed to the air, but not
to the dew. In other cases cellars are
found deep enough to have a tempera-
ture Of under 60 degrees. These can
be used in such cases. In some parts
of the territory over Which this paper
c~irculates storage pits have been dug
into the side hills and these may be
used as storage places.

sons for not wanting to feed corn to

A Rllnhllnn orchard.

A subscriber writes us; II have an
orchard four years old that is blight
ing very badly, | have sprayed IL
with a mixture of blue vitriol. Paris
green and lime. What further can
do for it?"
The spraying is all right. but is or
doubtful efficacy in the case of blight.
We would, however, approve OF the
spray, for a man should spray his
orchard whether he knows there Is
anything the matter with II or not.
Spraying may help keep down the
blight and probably does, but 1t is o
generally considered an effective rem
edy. The lime doubtless does pre-
vent the spread of the blight to some
extent by lettering bees and other
insects from visiting the tender ends
of the twigs.
Blight is produced by a fungus that
blighted tree. In the spring there Is
an oxidation from the tree and this
liquid is partaken Of by the bees and
other insects, which then fly TO the
blossoms Of apple and other trees and
carry some of the spores OF the fun
gus with them. Sometimes the tender
shoots are visited and the spores left
or them. The tender open tissues per
NIT the blight spore to send in a fila
ment at the time of It's termination
and thus the disease begins. The
spores are sticky and cannot be blown
by the wind, and must be carried by
insects or some other moving things.
AS the fungi are inside Of the wood 1t
is easily see that spraying cannot
reach the blight after II has become
settled In a tree. The only thing that
can be done is to cut off the blighted
portions. hoping to get below the seat
of the disease. The dead twigs con-
tain only dead fungi. The living fun
81 are in the live wood joining the
%blighted portions. The parts trimmed
off should be burned at once 10 pre-.
vent the spread of possible spores.
Likewise precautions must be taken
against carrying spores from infected
to healthy wood, and SO 1t Is neces-
sary to sterilize the knife or saw after
every amputation. This may be done
by using some germ destroying liquid.
Professor Eyarts Weed says that the
cutting should be done a foot below
the blighted wood.-Farmers' Review.

Summer made manure general
ly loses a larger proportion
of its manurial contents than
does the manure made at any
other time of year. This is for two
principal reasons. One of these is
because the manure is dropped here
and there in the barnyard and is not
kept in a pile as is the made
in winter. The other reason is that
the air and sun are more effective in
d~issipating the manurial elements in
summer than in winter. The only
way to in part check the operation Of
these forces is to keep the yard clean.

The Prepotent Sire.

Prepotency is of SO much value
in any kind of an animal that
it cannot be overlooked. A sire
that has proved prepotent should
be kept as long as possible on
the farm, for in changing to a younger
animal there is always the possibility
of changing to an inferior animal. The
practice on some farms of using a sire
for only a short time and then chang.
ing to another without regard to what
the first sire has done is rather of s.
lottery, as it is not possible to know
within a year or two the results of
the prepotency of the animal in CUES,
ton. The old sire that has proved
himself a prepotent breeder should be
purchased in preference to a young
animal that has not proved his prepo.
tence, but too often this is not the rule
that is followed.

-Four Facts For
Sick Women
To Considez
Lydia e. Pinkham,s Vegetable Compound
Has an UncquoHed Recosd of Cares
Mrs. Pinbham's Aduice Is Confide8-
fiaL Free, and dirays Helpful

FIRsT.-That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as baekas he, irregular
and painful menstruation, leucorrh9a,
displacements of the uterus, pain in
the side, burning sensation in the stom-
ach, bearing-down pains, nervousness,
dizziness and sleeplessness.
SEcoND.-The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
e. %Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
kidney troubles, all utter
inc and ovarian inflammation, weak
/ ness and displacements, regulating
ing it's pains. Ithas also proved itself
invaluable in preparing for childbirth
and the change OF life.
THIRD.-The great volume of unso-
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
FoURTH.-Every ailing woman in the
United States is asked to accept the
following invitation. 1t is free, will
bring you health and may save your
life.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation
to women. Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Out of the vast volume of ex.
perience in treating female ills Mrs.
Pinkham probably has the very knowl-
edge that will help your case. Surely,
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if She does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.

Jersey Cattle,

1t is rather strange that a very little
island in the English Channel should
have produced a breed of cows that
has become the leader as a specific
dairy breed and that is now known
the world around. 1t is also rather
strange that the world has so taken
to this breed that now there are hun.
dreds of times more Jersey cows pro-
duced in other countries than in the
Isle of Jersey. The secret OF the
influence Of this breed is that in this
island they have been selected and
bred for a long time along lines that
must result in the production of the
very pest possible dairy cow.
This little Island of Jersey formed
part of the Duchy of Normandy In
early times. 1t is about IL miles long
and not more than seven wide, not
much larger than two townships In
the United States. It's area is about
62 square miles and about 10000
acres. 1t will thus be seen that its
area is much less than that included
in the city of Chicago. The climate
is, however, very salubrious and peo'
pie find it a delightful place in which
to live. This is probably the reason
why it's population is $4,000 or there
abouts, more than 1000 to the square
mile.
The exact origin Of the Jersey cat
tie is unknown, but it is believed that
they came from Normandy. The con-
slant selection of the finest types did
the rest. The care they have received
is responsible for the production Of a
COW that is a great milk producer but
is not one suited to roughing it. The
man that wants a COW that will stand
all kinds of h~ardships should not Sc
lect a Jersey.

Danish

The Danes are great dairymen,
and there are no people in the
world that pay more attention TO
their cows than do these peo-
pie. A traveller that has spent some
time in Denmark says that all the
stables he visited had concrete floors
and were ~flreproof. Water was in
abundance and could be used in any
quantity for the washing out of the
stables. Danish dairymen like to know
what their cows are doing, and in
many of the stables keep a tablet
behind each cow giving data relative
TO the COW, while a slate bears the
dairy record of pounds of milk pro-
duced and sometimes its test.

Sod Bound Trees.

Sod bound trees are not very
common, but they are to be met
with. When a tree has made a
good growth and has spread out its
top to cover its feet there is little
danger of its becoming sod bound, for
the branches of the tree catch most OF
the sunshine and the grass growth be
low is meager. The sod bound condi'
ton comes when the tree is either
very young or so old that the leaves
are thin and few. The young tree that
is set in grass ground and has never
obtained a very good hold Of the
ground Is the n most likely to be.
come sod bound, which means that
the roots CT the grass have taken pos,
session of the soil and are taking most
of the plant food and moisture. Such
a tree can be relieved only by digging
out the grass and giving its roots the
entire use of the ground.

The octopus as Food.

In Italy the octopus is taken
and eaten. 1t has to be caught
at night, when it is attracted
to the vicinity of the boat in which
are the fishermen by a bright fire
made in an iron cage in front Of the
boat. 1t is said to make good eating,
and its tentacles when cooked are c1l
crosgwise, forming rings.
