Sheep hushinndry says Bulletin No. 20 Just issued by the United States Bur receive more this country than it does.at the present time. Unquestionably sheep raising could profitably be fitfed into the gen. eral management of thousands of farms where © there is none at the present time. On many other farms the size of the flock could be increased and more attention given to this branch of farming with result ing profit to the owner. Mutton never has been as highly ap- preciated in America as it should be. Probably one reason for this has been the supply of cheap beef that this coun try has enjoyed up to the past few years. The days of cheap beef ' are over, however, and 'it is necessary that sonie substitute for it' be found Mutton is the logical solution of the problem, It is true that the 'people will have to be educated more thor oughly as to its value, but mutton is now more in favor as 8 food than it used to be. A particular olass of Am- erican people who have underrated mutton are the farmers, many ol whoni keep a flock yet, seldom, if aver, slaughter one for their own use. A lamb or sheep could frequently be killed for use by the flock owner and it would prove much cheaper than buying meat. There would also be the satisfaction, of knowing that the meat was fresh and wholesome. reat Clearing New Land, Having been engaged in clearing land for a number of years, 1 would like to give some of my methods of clearing new land . In the removal of large stumps I have found it the most convenient to use dynamite. While it will seldom blow the: stump out of the ground, it will usually split it in sevaral parts and lay bare the roots, thus enabling the grubber to remove the ttump piece by piece, which is less laborious than remov- ing the whole stomp. The cost of this explosive Will not justify its use on stumps under 6 to 8 inches in diameter. It is too expensive for general use in clearing land, and while it is undoubtedly the cheapest method for removing stumps of large size, it is a question whether it is advisable, for general farming, to clear land covered with many such stumps. The cost of dynamite will vary approximately from 10 to cents per stump. It is readily seen that, if there are hundreds of these per acre, the cost will be too great to justify clearing by this method land destined for general farming. Another good method is by clear- ing with a horse and chain. This method consists in pulling . the young trees out of the ground. Best results can be obtained where the growth consists of saplings, say 2 by 4 inches in diameter. The ground should be soft - and loose. The plan is simple. It consists of fastening one end of a long log chain to the trunk of the tree as high ab- ove the ground as the flexibility ot the tree will permit, and hitch a steady 'horse to the other end of the chain. 'While the horses are pulling at the tree a man should be at its base with an axe and assist them by cutting such roots as seem loath to give way.--A. E. J. -- Feeding Young Pigs. Some remarks on feeding young pigs in Coburn's 'Swine in Ameriea will be read with interest. A newly-born pig's body is largely water, and tH" grow be must have food that will produey tissue. That's why the milk, primari- ly designed to furnish proper nourish. ment for growing animals, needs to be, as it 18, so rich in nitrogenous Later, when the time" comes that he is intended for quick fatten: ing, he should naturally he supplied with feed containing much fat-making material, and it is that quality which has given corn ite high place in fin- ishing pigs for slaughter. It is readily seem, therefore, that different kinds of feed will be needed to furnish the most benelicial results, according to the stage growth of the animal, and the energy required for its maintén- ance, and the end to, which the animal is destined; yet it does not necessarily that a ration should be one sided or bg dominated by one ele ment to the exclusion of a variety. -- The Best Pigs. The best pigs would be pigs of a pure breed, saud the department of agriculture, New Zealand The sale of pure-bred boars and sows would ma: terially assist the returns. The breed | chosen should be one quick in reach- ing maturity, and in which the layin on of flesh and fat is rapid. Berk- shires are, no doubt, one of the best breeds for bothbacon and pork; nev- ertheless, J they are allowed to ma- ture -beforé being . fattened * they are one to lay on fat at the expense of Hoot: Serkshires cross exceedingly well with other pure breeds ( ial- Hack); and the produce when skilfully man- aged will weigh at four months old deadweight, eighty-four pounds and upwards. Therefore, the breeding herd should be composed of pure-breds and the feeding herds of cross-breeds to tain- the best results oud the breeder go bey wi 20] studies its habits and the way it car- es for the young, he will soon learn to care for and feed them. At least, I did, and I Knew nothing about them when I began. The main thing is to get good, heal- thy stock .and Keep it healthy. Nev- er in-breed and never feed young poults wet mashes of any kind. The best fed for old turkeys is corn with free range.--B. J. Notes of Interest. Many poultry men fancy, sayy the American Agriculturist, that by hav- ing warm water or "with the chill oft" they will get more eggs from their fowls during winter. E. T. DeGrafi, of Montgomery county, NY., thinks otherwive, because the hen is not a "drinking animal" like the cow or the horse. She doesn't take enough water in at a time to reduce the temperature of her body enough to affect egg production one way or the other, An increasing interest in being mani- fested in underdraining, and consider- able tiling was done during the sea- son, especially in the western half of State of Ohlo, City of Toledo, | Lucas County.

A report to the Trade and Com- merce Department by Canadian Trade Commissioner Beddoe, of New Zea- land, "states that the steamship Mar- ama, leaving Auckland on Nov. 21. for Canada, carried 17,500 cases of but- ter, 278 carcesses of veal, and 1,250 carcasses of mutton for Canadian consumption. 'H you have a mongrel flock, why not select the best of the females and purchase a strong, vigorous, pure: bred mak to mate with them. It will increase the value of next vear's flock twenty-five per cent. Do not cut down the hen's ration because grain is high. Eggs ave high also and the hen cannot lay unless she is well fed. Weak-looking or deformed fowls, or those which have over been se- riously mick, should never be kept, hut should be disposed of immediats- ly, because they are never profitable. A good breakfast for laying hens is good wheat scattered in a deep lit- ter when "they will get exercise in seratohing it out. - Don't forget that grain, beef scraps, or other meat food, oyster shells, grit, charcoal and green food are necessary to pro- duce eggs.
