SIP rting slang of the time when Corhe t

around another ''like a cooper around a

around barrels nowadays. The trick is
performed by a machine which, feed the

Carloads of scrap iron go into a furnace

OF ingots at the other, the amount Of hand
labor being proportioned TO the faith or
distrust the management may have i'll

The bottle machine soon may be max
ing most of the common household uten-

factories may cease to manufacture incan-
descent light globes, the electrical COM

Few Mountain Sheep.

1t is doubtful if the United States pos
sesses today more than 1000 mountain
sheep, with Wyoming and Montana fol-
lowing Colorado with probably fewer
than 500 sheep each. Both of these states
still permit hunting, in spite Of the fact
that the animals are nearing extinction.
and that the ranges IN the high attitudes
and rugged mountain peaks inhabited by
them are incapable Of supporting any other
animal of value save the mountain goat

under normal conditions. are finally de
populated, as they are sure to be- NJ a

proportion of the sheep, her ranges could
easily support many times The present

Oats as a Nurse Crop.

Oats are frequently used as nurse crop
for clover and grass and in some sections
for alfalfa. This use is only incidental,
however, as the oats are sown primarily
for the production Of grain. while the
position Of this crop in the rotation imme-
diately preceding the meadow or pasture
crop makes il desirable. and in some
cases necessary, to SOW grass or clover
seed with it, When used as a nurse crop
rather less seed should be sown than
when not so used, while early harvesting
and the growing OF early varieties are adj
visable A less frequent use OF oats is as
a cover crop in orchards TO protect the
roots of the trees by shading them in late
summer and by forming mulch for pro
lection i'll winter. The cover crop also
serves to check the growth of the trees
and TO insure thorough rpening of the
young wood before cold weather. Cana
da field peas or vetch make a valuable
addition to oats when used for this pur-
pose.
