Whereas, The time of parting
of pastor and people has come
and it seems fitting that some
thing should be said to express
our appreciation of the labors of
Bro. F. E. Hudson during the
two and a quarter years that he
has been with US.
When he came among Us we
had only recently finished the
building of our Church and were
burdened with debt and with
only an imperfectly organized
plan of raising funds to carry on
the business of a church, but
thanks to his able leadership and
example we now have a thor
oughly worked out plan of sys-
tematic giving which enables us
to meet the current and Incl
dental expenses promptly and
places us on a solid financial
basis.
Also through his influence and
labor with those higher up, we
have reduced the debt on our
church building to a nominal
sum which need not cause US any
uneasiness.
We wish to speak also of the
social life of the church which
has been so greatly benefited by
the lives of Bro. Hudson and his
family-one and all assure them
of our grateful remembrance.

SHEEP REQUIRE MUCH SALT
Best Method Is to Keep Substance
Before Animals at All Times
Only Mineral Neec.sd.

Sheep on pasture are often neglect
ed as far as sailing is concerned. They
are either salted irregularly or not at
all. When salt is not supplied to
them In sufficient quantities they
crave 1t intensely, and, as has been
demonstrated by experiments, will not
make the gains nor grow the wool
they will if properly salted, says the
National Stockman. Salt is often con-
Bidered a seasoning for the food OF
animals and not an essential. 1t is
the only mineral which ordinarily
needs to be supplied to livestock. No
sheep can do its best without enough
salt.
Sailing every few days is sufficient
for the needs of the sheep, but it is
not as good a method as keeping salt
before the sheep all the time, as
when a rush of work comes or a Wis
lting time comes sailing the sheep is
one of the things neglected. When
salt is given after a period Of neglect
the sheep are SO eager for 1t that they
take too much and large quantities of
water are needed to wash it out OF
the system, some of this being drawn
from the tissues Of the body to the
detriment of tie sheep

This plant which can be grown in
almost any garden makes delicious
change in the vegetable dishes for the
table. The plant is perennial but de-
clines rapidly and should be reset
every three years.
1t is propagated from seed and the
suckers are set out producing edible
heads the second year. The heads are
from three to four inches in diameter
and are ready to cut for the table just
before they open.
For picking the heads are often
taken when about half grown. The
leaves are sometimes blanched and
eaten and these form the salad plants
which are seen on the market.

OF the can real tight, SO that the can
may be tackled to this piece of wood
and the handle is fastened to the
SCOOP by a large wood screw running
through the bottom Of the can into
the end of the handle. Do not use
these scoops in the salt barrel, as the
salt will soon rust them SO they will
be unfit for use. For the salt barre!

If one waits three weeks or longer
as is often the case, and then uses the
same variety of seed for replantlng

will likely have fodder but no corn
for bis pains.
Some of the greatest objections to
replanting are that the young corn is
80 far behind in size at the second
and third cultivation that it not only
does not have the proper culture, but
interseres with the work Of cultivat-
ing the larger stalks.
Probably most farmers put too
much seed on the ground to begin
with, and if one has as much as
three-fourths OF a stand, it will IN
many instances make as much as
full stand; if the season should be dry
or the land thin, the salks next these
missing hills will always be larger
and stronger.

farmer should be sure that his seed
is good and the land in as good con.

supply the missing hills. Planted this
way the vines will make a large
growth, several bushels of seed may
be harvested and the land and corn

Where Flies Propaaate.

The manure heap is where flies
propagate. The female fly lays about
13O eggs, and these eggs hatch in
about one-third of a day. The larval
stage is three days, the pupa stage FIVE
days, and the fly rounds to the full
adult fly in about ten days. There
may be twelve broods in a summer.
The first thing to do is to see that the
manure is we'll screened, and for this
purpose the best material is light
cheesecloth. A shovelful of chic
mated lime should be thickly busted,
quite often, over the manure every
day.

PLATING Trees.

It is not advisable to plant a solid
block of 100 trees of one variety un-
less there are other trees in the i'm
mediate vicinity. Some varieties are
self-fertile, and will give satisfactory
results if planted alone; but it is al
ways safer to provide for cross fertili-
zation. In large orchards every
third or fourth row should be Of a
different variety. Two or three vari
cites are enough for a commercial
orchard, however, and it Is seldom ad-
visable to plant more.
