The experiment has been made, and 1t
is reported failure.
Angora goats and sheep will not herd

Sheep Manure Valuable.

There is no other animal kept under
cover during the winter that will make
more or richer manure for its live
weight or for the feed consumed than
the sheep, writes correspondent in
National Stockman. 1t has been COM
mon experience that sheep kept during
the nights in well ventilated shed
with floor space of ten square feet
per head if duly Uttered with short lit
ter in which there is no risk of entan-
clement will leave a solid mass Of the
richest manure in the very best condi-
ton for use in the spring, and at the
same time by the use of plaster liber-
ally scattered on the floor there will be
no disagreeable odor from 1t, while the
sheep will be in perfect health. The
Sleeps manure is next to that of poul-
try in availability.

Elaxseed For Swine.

Professor Stewart says that faxseed
is preventive of disease in hogs a
good food medicine Its oil is very
soothing to the stomach and intestines
and is also rich in food for muscle and
bone. One of the best ways to use fax
seed is to boil it in six times its bulk
Of water till it forms jelly. Now mix
a little of this jelly with wheat bran
and you have an excellent food for a
growing pig. This is also good for the
brood sow. promoting her yield Of
milk. If used In this way one pound
Of boiled faxseed is mixed with ten
pounds of bran. Pigs very soon get
liking for the taste Of fiaxseed. AM
other way is to grind one bushel of fax
seed with eight bushels of oats or all
the ffaxseed that can be ground with
out sticking to the milIstones. Then
mix 100 pounds of this ground oats and
faxseed with 200 pounds of bran.
This will be the best kind of feed for
young pigs, and IT will be good for
them all the time up toyfattenfng, and,
besides this, they VIII be smooth, rangy
pigs, making good roasters at any
time. In other words, they win grow
and fatten every day of their lives.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
The Winter Cleanup.


No matter how careful the farmer
tries to be, there is always d great
deal of trash that accumulates around
the barn lots, along the fences and
even III the fields. says the Farmers Ad-
vocate. The farmer should make it a
practice to use all the old boards and
fenceposts that have become useless
during the year as kindling or fire.
wood These may be worked up into
wood now and the place occupied by
them put into much better appearing
condition. All trash that cannot be
used as firewood should be collected
and burned.
1t is good practice to burn all such
wood in the hogpens. The charcoal
and ashes make an excellent addition
to the hogs ration, and the very best
way to get this into the hogpen Is to
make the latter the burning ground
for all the useless wood on the farm
The barn lots and hog lots should be
cleaned of all manure and dirt that are
not frozen to the ground. 1t is known
that disease germs. especially cholera
germs, can live through the winter in
the frozen Jumps of manure and filth
in these lots. If these Jumps are carted
to the field, the health Of the herd to
be kept in the lot next summer will be
protected.

COMMUNICATIONS.
Archaic and wastefn1.


To THE EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE:
Sir PARTS of New jerseys methods
of legal procedure are archaic or
wasteful.
AS an example of the former. some
years ago the writer unhappily had to
bring an action against a lady, but for
nothing more serious than alleged neg
lect that had damaged property. Yet
on going through the papers with his
counsel he was shocked to find him
self calling her $50 far as the childish
wording can be remembered after the
lapse Of time) thief in the night,
murderess and similar dreadful things.
He protested that instead of believing
anything of the kind he had much re-
Spect for her; but was told that the
law required the phraseology and that
unless it was conformed to the case
would be thrown out of court. Natur-
ally a private settlement was pre-
ferred to fathering silly insults TO a
lady.
Asan example of waste, more recent
ly the writer listened to the putting
on the record of evidence as to the To-
cality of a certain site. The counsel
with due solemnity asked questions,
and tile witness after careful delibera-
ton made answers. for about say eight
minutes. AS we have no right to ex-
pect to enjoy for nothing the services
of galaxy of talent, ten dollars a
minute would be very conservative
estimate of the aggregate cost Oh the
hearing total OF $50 for getting the
evidence on the record certainly but
leaving it disputable at will by the
other side, and so liable to cause furth-
er expense. A modern method would
have been to state the alleged facts in
brief paragraph, to which in this in
stance 1.-THE facts being of common
knowledge) the other side in a briefer
paragraph would have replied " We
agree. This method would not have
taken more than two minutes, and so
would have quartered the expense |;
but, even better than that, it would
have eliminated all further discussion
of the point, and so all further ex-
pense, from the suit throughout.
Considering all this, would it not be
the merest common sense to modern
ize New jerseys forms of legal pro-
cedure? Might it not be respectfully
submitted that most admirable head
Of commission for such purpose
would be the present Chancellor

DIRECT election of delegates is an
inconsistency on it's face. To insist
that the Republican voter shall say
at the polls whom the delegate shall
support in convention made up of
menewho are gathered as body of
party councillors is absurd. Choose a
good man, who represents by his own
clear mind and personal honor the sense
of the people, and let him have free
hand when he meets others who also
desire to nominate the best candidate.
If the Republican party wants direct
voice in the choice of President, why
not seek it directly I? Give the voters
of the party opportunity to select
their nominee by national vote,
without the Intervention of any con-
yention. Then amend the Constitu-
tion so as to abolish the elector and
decide the Presidency itself by ma
jority vote. That would, at least, be
consistent. But at present the whole
American system is representative,
not direct, and unless it be desired to
attack the system, make it represen-
tative all through. We should like to
see the millennium, when there will
be very little government any way,
and what there is will be thoroughly
representative Of all the people,
springing directly therefrom. But
the millennium is not for this genera
tion--nor the next, and meanwhile
keep your political systems fairly con-
Sistent. -Sunday Call.

Applying Lime to Land.

When light applications Of lime are
made they should go on the land after
the sod has been broken. The tendency
of lime is to go downward. When very
heavy applications are made, as for
merly was the rule in some limestone
districts, it is the custom to spread the
lime on the sod the season previous to
the time of blowing. This is not the
best method for light applications.
Mix the lime with the soil after the
sod has been broken.--Alva Agee in

NEW JERSEY AND

New Jersey has generally been con-
sidered one Of the small States, and
for that reason it has not been looked
To for Presidential candidates, though
it presented Winfield Scott in 1852 and
George B. Mcclellan in 1854, both
being defeated. 1t was more fortunate
in it's candidates for Vice-President,
for it did land one and lost three.
Richard Stockton was candidate for
Vice President in 1920, Theodore Ere
linghuysen in 1874 and William l..
Dayton in 1856. 1t was not until 1896
that Hobart was successful. This is
no reason why this State should not
now have candidate for Vice-Presi-
dent.

Ep1ToR or THE CHRONICLE

Dear Sir The time has come when
New Jersey has but one of two propo-
sitionS to choose-will she elect to
spare her game-birdS from extermina-
ton, or to lose them? Slow in her
game legislation, and blind to facts
which every sportsman is obliged to
see, the State has permitted the
slaughter of migrating game-birds, on
their way to norther breeding grounds,
which has reduced their numbers an
nually, until the point is reached
where the remnant must be saved now
or never.
1t is to be hoped that the intelligent
element of our State will see to it
that measures are passed by the legis-
lature now in session, by which the
game bag will be put out of commits
sion for time, and and an economic
value of interest to the entire State
be allowed to remain with us.

Our board of aldermen will do well
to follow the example Of that OF Eliza
beth where an ordinance providing
for the construction of conduits for
sewer connections or for gas and water
pipes under the direct authority and
supervision of the Street Commission
err, is to be passed. Its aim is to remedy
prevailing methods under which plum
bers and others tear up a street and
later fail to restore it to proper condl-
tions. The ordinance provides that
sewers from the curbline to public
sewers or excavations for gas and
water pipes, must be constructed by
and under the authority of the Street
Commissioner at the expense OF the
property owner. Application for the
work to be done must be made in
writing, and payment is to be guar
anteed before the work is begun. One
section of the ordinance that is con-
Sidered of great Importance and is ex-
pected to aid materially in securing
improved conditions in the city streets
provides that when City Council has
authorized the paving Of a street, gas,
water and other necessary connec-
tions shall be made before the paving
is begun. This will in the future ell
inmate the tearing up of streets for
this purpose after a pavement has
been laid. All repairs are to be made
under the authority of the Street
Commissioner.
