Heed the advice Of Professor Dug
gar and do your subsoiling before the
rsubsOil gets wet. 1t is seldom adyisa-
, BILE to subsoil in spring, because when
the surface soil IS in fairly good shape
for blowing the subsoil is still wet. The
fall is the only time to do subsoiling
profitably. And On fiat lands that need
drainage 1t Is usually a waste of labor
TO SubSOii. Drain we'll first.

CARE OF SHEEP.

It is Door business for sheep to drink
ice water, because it lowers their
temperature and affects their diges-
ton and requires more feed to bring
them back to a normal condition.
When you see a sheep going down
on it's knees frequently. you may be
pretty sure that its boots are affected
and need prompt attention.
If the dirt floor Of the sheep barn
cannot be kept perfectly dry a, plank
floor with plenty OF straw is necessary.
A hundred feet Of train tile laid un-
der the floor OF the sheep pen will
keep it perfectly dry all the time.
Whenever ticks are found the sheep
must be dipped at once. There are q
number Of excellent dips on the mar
ket which a obtained in every town.
If sheep become laverated on wire
fence or other objects, watch the
wounds carefully, and If maggots APP
pear, wash the wounds with a weak
soution of carbolic acid and water. II
the ounds are deep and diicult to
reach, inject the solution with a small
glass syringe.
Remember that one treatment Of
wounds of any disease will w sure.
Look after the wounded Or sick ami
mas every day until they r entirely
well.

a LARGE STRAWBERRY GROWER
Ia Plants Corn, Peas and 1ris;, Fots=
toes With His Berries.
News

{Whiteville News-Reporter.}
Las Friday we had the pleasure Of
a call from several progressive farm
ers around Iron Hill, near Tabor in
this county. Among them were Mr..
Joel Stephens, one OF the largest
strawberry growers Of Columbus
county. Mr.. Stephens has q acres
planted in berries. and says MS plants
now look cry fiourishing. He says
he uses nitrate Of soda on his berries.
but it must be used before the berries
begin to form or the berries will he toe
soft for shipment. He believes IN
heavy fertilization. and says the more
you put on the better your crops. Ir.
Stephens says he raises his corn, rs
also coWpeas and Irish potatoes
among his strawberries. The rows
are five fee apart. and ne plants
orr between every third bunch. IN
every other row he plants peas, and
sometimes Irish potatoes. He SAYS
these crops do not in the least in iuro
the yield Of berries. and they are
made with the same working and me-
nuring he gives the Strawberries, In
fact these valuable crops are limos
g clear gain. This IS important n
formation to our Columbus county
berry growers. Mr.. Stephens says he
has made his berries average hITn
some $3.50 per acre.

TRAINING a SHEEP DOG.

A puppy should always be broken
with an old female dog. One that IS
thoroughly trained. At first the young
ster will try to do fOur times as much
work as necessary, and his efforts TO
initiate the old dog will nearly run his
legs off. He VII soon learn his les
son. however. and will learn more
from an old dog than from the best
trainer
When the puppy IS able TO take care
OF the flock himself, then keep the
old dog at home and keep the puppy
hard at work for at least a year. SO
that he will not forget his lesson.
The greatest danger in training pup
pies is in making them whip shy. A
thoroughbred collie pup should never
be touched with q whip. and il he is
of the right scrt will never need to
be. a little scolding is all that will
be necessary to correct his faults. AS
a rule, a puppy will do what is ask
ed of him IS soon as he understands
what is wanted
a good way to train 8 puppy to
guard a coat or other object is to
chain him with a short chain near a
feed box to which animals are accus-
toned to come. His fear Of being
trarnpled on will prompt him to de-
fend himself, and a few lessons Of
this kind will make him a frst-class
watch DOG,

THE HORSE AND HIS MASTER.

Try a measure OF kindness for a bal
anced ration.
Honestly, now, how many men did
you ever see salt their horses in win
ter?
Giv the horses more care and
warmer quarters, thus saving high
priced feed and horse flesh.
All roughage and no grain makes
Jack a full hOrse-stuffed with feed
and little enduring qualities.
Ra using children and keeping g
klcjlng horse about the place, have
caused many a heartache and vain "a
greet.
Jerk the nervou and skittish horse
every time he SHES, thereby showing
yourself TO be a bigger fool than the
horse.
The W~orf-horses must have exercise
and fresh ar when NOT in use tyr,
them out during the warm part OF the
day n let them ENJOY themselves.
