Harvest Time

Harvesting is on in earnest in this
vicinity. "Can you reach your oats
with the binder" is the most
common phrase you hear. Some
can't get much more than halt of it,,
others use the mower in order to get
it at all, while others will have to
use it as pasture for stock. 1t seems
too bad that farmers, after working
SO hard to raise the crop and depend
ing on it for little financial aid to
side them over until the corn is ready
for the market must see their crops
spoil and their hopes come to naught
and their hard work all done for
nothing. Well is it for the farmer
that he is not easily discouraged.
See him as he cuts down meadow
one day, expecting to put a nice lot
of sweet hay into his barn on the
morrow. Lo! during the night
comes a heavy rain and all the next
day his hay lies in the sun bleaching
perhaps receiving asecond rain. His
barn is still empty. The hay, if not
entirely spoiled, is hardly fit for any
STOCK III WlDter out III must De takeu
care of in some way for fear there
will be none better to be gotten and
it may be that stock can be kept
alive with it until spring when
another chance will be had to try
the same experiment over again.
Well is it that he has good stock Of
patience and cheerful disposition
else he would become so woefully
discouraged with these failures he
would yield to discouragment and
give up in despair. Yes, and the
farmer also has grit.

THE scAB INSECT.
Of All External Parasites 1t Is by
Far the Most Dangerous.

OF all external parasites the scab
troublesome, once it is permitted to
effect Judgment upon the sheep. 1t
is not common ailment upon farms
in the east, but is sufficiently preva-
lent upon the ranges of the west to
make the danger of infection great
In fact, upon the ranges, scab and
starvation are the two principal dis
eases among the tlocks. !!
The scab mite is an insect so small ,
that it is not quite visible to the;
naked eye, lives upon the skin, and by ,
Irritating the surface, it causes a.
flow of the fluid upon which it lives, /,
and finally, by continuing this irrita- !
ton, scabs or crusts are formed be-
meath which the insect deposits it's /
eggs. In the course of two or three
days. says Rural New Yorker, these
eggs hatch. The newly-born parasite,
becomes adult in Is days Each fe- |
male, parasite will lay about Is eggs, |
10 of which will bring forth females j
and the other five males.
The new parasites, as soon as they
are Matched, migrate and infect the adj
Jacent territory, which makes the scab
patch spread, by the constant advance
OF it's circumference, and the eggs of
new parasites are deposited upon posts
or boards upon which the sheep rub
themselves, and thus are ready to seize
any advantage to again locate them
selves upon other sheep, when they in,
turn become centers of infection. Ger
ZACH, a German authority, computes
that in three months single female
scab insect may become responsible
for the existence of 100000 progeny,
thus in As days after infection the in
crease from one parasite might be
1,5OO; in rs days, 10000, and in 90
days, 100000. AS matter Of fact,
1t requires about 80 days for the scab
disease to become we'll spread and.
very troublesome after introduction
into a clean flock.
