Grain Raiions for sheep.

+. Il. Mumford, of the Missouri En-
pertinent Station, in presenting a sum
mary of al the work that has been
done at the experiment stations on the
feeding of sheep, showed that sheep
produce more meat from q pound OF
grain than any other class of farm ami
mails. In fact, ii was shown that a
pound Of mutton can be produced from
about half rs much grain MS pound Of
beef. Even the mortgage-lifting hog
requires more grain to produce a pound
OF human food than the sheep. With
the combination of corn ANA clover hay
for food, and dry shed for shelter, sheep
will always give good account Of them
selves and respond readily TO the care
given them.

Fall Alfalfa Seeding.

The PENNSYLVANIA Experiment Sta
ton has gained much experience in fall
and spring seeding of alfalfa, and says
that the principal objection to spring
sowing is that weeds come up and
choke out the young plants before they
get good start. The fall seeded al
falfa on dry land was able to with
stand the severe winter climate per
fectly-in fact, better than the com
mon red clover. Under average condi-
tons, from 20 to 80 pounds of seed
should be sown to the acre. Manure
gave better results on Pennsylvania
soil than did commercial fertilizer

On account of the congested condition of freights it is becoming impossible for the companies and business men to keep stocked up without carrying a six months supply on hand. Families in Clifton have been compelled to dis card gasoline stoves and do their cook ing with wood stoves.
