A Feed Combine.

Feeding sheep and lambs for the
market is very much of a lottery at
best. 1t is the purpose of the feeder
to buy thin stock and, after feeding It
from sixty to ninety days, return it to
market at profit. This is the hope
that impels him to put in his time and
labor, else he would not do It. There
are three important factors that enter
into the operation. The cost Of the
sheep or lambs on the market, the price
Of the feed that is to make them fat,
and the condition Of the market when
they are returned for slaughter. The
first element is known quantity, but
the second and third are often a
chance. They have proved to, be very
much of chance this season. The
original cost of the feeders was the
greatest ON record, feed was high and
market conditions have not panned ou.
MS good as generally expected.-Drov-
ers' Journal.

In the event OF hired help being scarce,
it is sometimes possible to offset this
lack by increasing the number of horses
kept. In some parts of the West and
Northwest, declares the Farmers Re-
view, the scarcity of help has resulted
in more horses being used. Five are
hitched to a double plow, and one drlv-
er is thus enabled to turn two burrows
at time and practically double the
work that one man has to do. This is
the result of the complete utilization Of
horseflesh.

Land kept constantly as q garden
loses much Of its fertility by teaching.
A clover rotation is the best preventive
of this. There should be at least two
or three garden spots on each farm
kept rich enough so that one years ex-
ira manuring will bring 1t into the
finest possible condition for garden
truck. II farmers could always plant
gardens on two-year clover sod they
would raise better crops and with less
stable manure and other fertilizers
than they now require. The clover
does much more than furnish green
manure to ferment in the soil. Its
roots reach down into the subsoil, thus
not only saving and bringing to the
surface plant food that would other
wise be wasted. but also by enlivening
the subsoil, allowing the roots of crops
to go deeper. Clover sod to begin with,
If well enriched, is best for such crops
as cucumbers and melons, that are al
ways most likely to suffer from
drought 1t is quite impossible to make
good garden crop unless the land has
previously been enriched by series Of
heavy manurings. The fertility lost by
teaching must be constantly renewed.

pOtted Cheese.

When leftover cheese grows dry and
hard, don't throw it away, but CRATE to
a powder. Put some in a bottle and
save to serve with soups, Italian fash
ion. or cook with macaroni, or add to
scallops. The rest of it may be beaten
soft with fork, seasoned with mus
tard and cayenne and reduced to a
paste with little vinegar. This is fine
to spread on saltines or crackers or for
sandwich filling.

 The first occurrence took place one night last week, when some unknown party walked up on his porch and rang the bell. When Mfr. Watkins went to the door the party ran off, Mir. Wat kins. firing his pistol at him as he ran.
 The occurrence was repeated last night about Il o'clock when a party of two or three went to his home and rang the bell on the porch again.
 This time Mir. Watkins did not re- spond and the parties went away after d whole, but returned and hour or two later and repeated their action.
 The object of these night visits is not known, but it Is thought to no good purpose and the police officers are on the lookout for the guilty par ties and if they repeat this program again they will probably be caught, Two negroes named Cox were arr rested just north of town by Oficers Fryer and Watkins last night, on a charge of bringing forbidden quanti- ties of whisk ey to town. The negroes got off the train at Pronto and walked Into town, but the officers were noti- fled over the telephone, and the. offi- cers met them just above town with eight quarts each. They will be tried before Judge Lawson.
