Good Weed Destroyers.

One can see where sheep can be utiliz-
ed to very good purpose in assisting the
Western farmer to keep weeds in check.
if farms overrun with weeds Of all kinds
were turned over to sheep raising for a
few years it would be good thing for
the country. There arc weeds enough
growing on the roadsides to keep large
a Jcks Of sheep going during the sum-
mer months. Some farmers have
ploughed up the sides of the roadways
along their farms and sown them to
wheat. This is better than leaving the
roadways to make breeding ground
for all kinds of weeds and to seed the
adjacent fields. But some more COM
prehensive plan is needed to keep weeds
in check. By proper cultivation and
farming with a view to keeping weeds
from maturing much can be accomplish
ed. II in addition every farmer had a
flock of sheep and allowed them the run
of the fields here weeds grew and flour
ished he would not find the weeds gain
ing headway the way they are doing.
Sheep raising is q profitable undertak-
ing in itself. A good flock Of sheep put
on some of these weedy farms would
return more in wool and lambs than
could be got from seeding these dirty
fields to grain crops. 1t is difficult how
ever, to convince the Western farmer Of
this. He has had 1t instilled into him
so long that grain growing is the thing
| for the Western farmer that 1t has be-
come a second nature to him. Then, too
be wants to travel the line of least resist
ance, Ploughing, sowing, harvesting
and marketing the crop mean hard work
for few months of the year, and the
thing is over with. Livestock farming
of any kind. of course, means attention
every day and week Of the year. And
this fact influences many Western
farmer and induces him to continue In
the old way. Sheep will take care oi
themselves better than any other animal
on the farm If conditic Ms are at all favor
able.-Canadian Farm.
