Cover for Sheep.


Old experienced sheep raisers real
lie the Importance of providing cover
for animals on the range or in the
yards so arranged that the sheep can
get under cover quickly In the event
Of sudden storms which are likely at
this season of the year. A structure
Of this kind should be more than a
roof-it should be deep so that the
sheep can get far enough under that
the storm can not possibly reach them
1t should also be a hooded shed, that
is, some provision should be made for
low front which will break the
storm. If this is not feasible a good
way is to build up a straw stack or
stack Of corn stalks in the open in
front of the open part Of the shed, but
several feet away so that the sheep
will not feel they are penned in yet
can readily get in by going around
the stack on either side. The floor Of
this shed should be dry at all times
and it is an excellent plan to have
more Or less roughage in it which the
sheep may MUNICH over to keep them
happy and contented 1t is not intend
ed that this shed be more than a place
for cover in the event of storm. The
barn or stable should be the regular
home and arranged for comfort The
shed, as described, will save many
pounds Of mutton, for nothing will
pull sheep down more quickly than
exposure to a storm.

The Corner of the Pen.

There is no doubt but what the more
fresh air the swine get even during
the winter the better they feel, so in
stead Of combining them to the house,
arrange one corner Or end Of the yard
so that they may still be out Of doors
and yet bep rejected from storm. An
excellent way Of doing this is to select
a space as large as necessary, facing
the south, and build it up with gravel,
SO that it is several inches higher than
the surrounding soil; then there will
be little danger of it's getting damp.
With old boards build a rough low
structure, covering roof and cracks
with corn stalks. Not fancy house,
costing considerable, but simply
crude, rough structure which will be
practically waterproof and comfort
able. Let the swine have a portion of
the corn on the ear fed in this retreat.
and they will be happy and quite will
ing to stay out of doors most Of each
day unless the weather is unusually
cold; as result one will have q clean

Students Give Up Football.

The students of st. Johns school at
Manlius, n. Y, have decided to drop the
game of football after playing out the
present season, except among themselves
on their own ground. The student mem
bers of the athletic association have
adopted resolutions declaring:
'"That football, as it is now played,
is more for college than for preparatory
schools.
''That professionalism and fake schol-
arships are largely responsible for the
unnecessary roughness, smuggling, and de-
mora lizing influences of an otherwise
noble game.

To an inquiry how to fertilize a field
Of rye sowed last fall, intended to be
seeded also with clover IN the early
spring, DR.. G. W. Woods recommended
at recent meeting the application Of
four hundred pounds of muriate of
potash. This application was intend
ed to encourage the clover that was to
be sown rather than the rye. If it
was preferred to grow larger crop of
rye rather than the clover, he would
recommend a dressing Of nitrate of
soda.

AS to Cross Breeding.

The vital objection to cross breeding
is the danger that scrub stock may re-
suit, which would likely be the case il
the crossing was continued beyond the
first generation. On the other hand,
there may exist conditions when it is
desirable to make a cross, even while
admitting that the grade of stock is by
far to be preferred The parent stock
may be all right for present purposes,
yet should a demand arise for stock
finer bred, for bacon or other purposes,
surely one would be justified if the re-
verse were the case.

Young Fruit Trees.

There are a number Of good plans
for protecting young trees from the
ravages Of mice and rabbits, during
the winter, several Of them having
been referred to in this department.
Where coal is burned on the farm, no
better use will be found for the ashes
minus the large clinkers) than in plac-
ing them around the young trees. It
requires less time than to arrange one
Of the wire or tarred paper collars,
and costs nothing. Proceed after this
plan: With a rake or hoe pull away
from the tree for two feet all around
1t, all the dried grass and weeds. Then
mound up soil eight inches and cover
this with the coal ashes so that they
are foot high against the trunk and
extend to foot or more away from
the bottom of the tree. This material
will pack during the winter and Of
fers no warmth to the field vermin.
In the spring it may be drawn away
and spaded into the soil where it will
do no harm, even though it does no
particular good. The plan is so good
that it is worthy of attention.

matched in importance and wealth pro-
duction. bp a copper era. The wealth Of
the freadwelI at Junea is to be extended
along the whole southern coast. Won
derfuIly rich copper deposits, carrying
gold and silver have been developed on
the coast and among The islands of
Prince Williams sound. Mountains of
ore have been found on the Chittina
river, tributary of Copper river.
THE G~uggenheims have secured con-
troll of these latter and next spring will
witness a spectacular race in railroad
building to reach these mines. The eco
nomical path TO them lies up the Copper
river. This fact has only been discovered
within a year past. The Copper River
& Northwestern Railroad company, (the
Guggenheims) has spent a quarter mil
Iion dollars on a right of way from
Valdez. They have decided to abandon
all this for a course which offers a much
better grade and better haul up the Cop
per river from Catalla-now a little viii
lage on the ocean front twenty miles
east of the mouth of the river and in the
center of a country rich in the finest
quality of bituminous and anthracite
coal and where the surface for many
miles is marked with oil seepage, 1t is
the intention to build an artificial harbor
here, bring the ore to coal and to build
smelters besides capturing the traffic to
the interior. M. j. Heney, who built the
White pass railroad, has already begun
construction of the Copper River rail-
road from Cordova, a town about twenty
miles west of the mouth of Copper
river. Twenty-Five miles up the Copper
river are immense glaciers, one OIL each
side the river and that offer barely room
enough between to build a bridge
Above the glaciers is a narrow canon
with but room enough for one road. To
get around these glaciers from the west
bank will require two. expensive bridges
and from the east bank, on Catalla side,
but one.
1.-THE Copper river is not n~avigable and
the approach to these difficult points
must be made over the tracks of the
railroads as they are built and the rails
thai first reach the glaciers will rave
every advantage. Heney has a consid-
cradle advantage of the start but there
are fewer difficulties from the east bank
and but one bridge necessary to get be-
tween the glaciers and into the canon.
So it will be a pretty race. At the ocean
terminal of the railroad that controls
the traffic of the copper and coal beds
together with the traffic to the interior,
will grow up the most important city of
Alaska and the realization of this fact
gives a lively interest to the spectacle
in the eyes of the thousands who are
looking to Alaska for hat great oppor-
tunity which Mr.. ingalls, says comes to
each mans door in his lifetime only
once"
