for the first time that he had tried

Lady Henry Somerset, whose labors

affecting story of the way in which
her interest in these little ones was

FLINT LOCKS STILL IN USE
OId-E ashioned Muskets Remain PrIn.
cipaI Weapons Of Many Natives
In African Jungles.

Old flintlock muskets are still the
principal weapons of hordes Of natives
over vast tracts Of Africa The exis-
tence of these ancient arms keeps
alive a steady demand for gun flints,
a demand which is supplied from the
little Norfolk village of Brandon,
where there are flint pits which have
been worked. as remains found estab-
fish, for at least 30 centuries. The
business is hereditary one. Large
masses of flint are got out of the quar-
ries and then faxed or split (the proc
ess being termed "knapping') in or
der to get at the core, which alone is
used. The workmen place the flint
upon pad upon their left leg and tap
It with short, heavy hammer. Four
fifths of the flint thus dealt with is
waste. but of the remainder gun flints,
carbine flints and pistol flints are still
manufactured, while tinderbox fints
are prepared for the shepherds of the
remoter parts of Spain and Italy.

MANY BENEFITS FROM SHEEP

There Is no kind Of live stock that

connection with extensive grain grow

This is due to one fundamental fact
the large number Of weeds that
sheep will eat. OF the 800 grasses and
weeds known in Canada. sheep will
eat 260. Horses and cattle will eat
only about one-fourth that number
The most serious problem confront.
Ing the average grain farmer In West.

lem. While the weed problem can be
handled by proper cultivation. this
cultivation can be greatly facilitated
by keeping the right kind Of animals
on the land. and in addition to solving
the weed problem the productiveness
of the soil will also be maintained

thing that will maintain the fertility
Of the land demands his attention.
Sheep will do both, and are therefore
