If not overdone, the barley will keep the herd going till odd heads began to ripen, then the grain and rape make a good ration until after frost arrives.

As long as the teeth of a sheep are strong and in good working order, it is reasonably safe to keep her. , The safety of the flock may be greatly insured by. calling up the sheep every night and shutting them into a tight fold. They soon get the habit and are also niore docile the year around. A flock of sheep can not be made too tame. A wild flock is of less value and makes less growth and shorter fleeces than a quiet one.

Would it PRY to aso some commercial fertilizer; if so how much and what unalysis would you re- commend? -Answeri-eIn planting corn for ail age, both drill and check -row systems are successfully used. The cheek - row systern, which is really the hilt sy,eni, allows of cultivating the corn ooth ways. If the land is not very weedy the drill system is satisfactory, drilling it in rows about 30 inches apart. In drills it requires about 10 quarts to the acre. To make sure of the germination, you would do well to buy the seed on the ear and test the ears for germina. time. This elm be done by taking out ie kernels from each ear, two feora • the tip, middle and butt, numbering'''. the ear and placing the kernels on a square of blotting paper or cloth, num- bering the square the same number as the ear. Place the cloth in a pan et large plate where you can keep it damp and warm, and inside of a week the kernels should have ,gerrninated -sufficiently to tell you whether the ear is 'strong, weak or dead. Take the medium and strong ears and shell them out together and discard the ears that show very weak or dead kernels. It would surely pay you to fertilize your corn. For this purpose I -would recommend the use of 200 to 300 pounds per acre of a fertilizer have a grain drill with fertilitter dis- tributing attachment. Cultivation and fertilizers are about the only things that you can do .to combat the wire worm, I do not believe the dry Tether has bad very much effeet on hem. Question -R. W.: -.We want to use commercial fertilizer an our bean land this year and we don't know just how rancliis best to put on per acre to get best results out of lbeans. Also, which would be best, to sow fertilizer broad. east or in the hill with beans? Our land is practically clay land. Answer: -For fertilizing beans on clay soil, I would advise the use of from 200 to 600 pounds per acre of fertilizer analyzing 2 to 3% ammonia, 8 to lfickphosphoric acid and I to 2% potash. This should be worked tiler-, °uglily into the soil when you are pre -1 paring the seed -bed at least a week to ten days previous to planting. Iti can. be spread with a lime spreader or, if you have a grain drill with fertilizer drilling attachment, it is well to apply it that way_ The important point Is to see that the fertilizer is evenly dis- tributed and thoroughly worked into the soil. It is rich available plant - food if it is worked into the soil where, it can dissolve so that the plants can' make use of it. It is not best practice; to drill the fertilizer in with the beans. Broadcasting has been found to give best results. teen hours, after which either mix the mash or squeeze out the water ando feed in troughs by itself. To remove rain -spots from light material hold over a jug or basin of steaming hot water and rub. gently with a piece of white crepe or of the same material. Offtarje Damp and filth, are the two prime causes of disease among poultry. Idle- ness is a disease breeder, busy fowls, as a rule, keeping in good health. Filthy drinking vessels breed undesir- able germs about as quickly as any- thing, germs often hiding in the scum that is allowed to accumulate. Keep the houses thoroughly ventil- ated during the month, for June has some very hot days and nights. Juneiis a good month for i' caponizing the young cockerels. To lseep in good hoolth a hen in propsttion to its size, requires almost seven times, the amount. of 'fresh air that a horse needs. The horse sweats through his skin, but the fowl must get irid of the waste of the body by means of the lungs, and therefore breathes seven times as fast as heated, sweating animals. For winter green feed there is noth- ing better than lawn clippings. The grass shofild be gathered 85 SOon 88 met, and spread out on a shed roof so both sun and air can strike it.

The development of hu- man life is not away from his princi- ples, but toward them. With all the eross-eurreets, the drifts, and the ed- dies in the stream of hunitin progress, it yet moves clenrly forward in the direetion of his teachings. With an increasing number of people outside of the &melt developing a clear faith in the leadership of ,Jesus, it is no time far tbe people in the chureh to question the practicability of the eer- mon on the mount. They must develop a faith that shall triumphant- ly apply the principles of Jesus to the whole of life, 2. Why. believe? John was not in- terested in developing faith for the mere sake of faith The belief that he wanted was no mere reptition of 4. The challenge. Is the purpose of John in his Gospel being fulfilled t17$• day '1? This is the reeponsibilitY which the Gospel puts upon those who hear it. This was Jesus' ster.i test. Well he knew the fatal facility of humanity to pass resolutions and then forget them. What happened to these who listened to his teachings and did them not, he set forth in the parable of the solver and of the men who built their houses an the rock and on the sand. He requires of those who believe in him that they translate his words into life; how else shall the kingdom of God conic? This is his challenge; "Wine call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the thins which I say?' Either we aceomplish the social living that, he taught, or we fail of fellowship. and the end is, "Ye did it not; depart from It Breed the hest to the best. Raise the calves; quit eating veal.

Scald them with hot water and then expose them to the sun during the day. To make a real success at the fall shows, begin now to care for the pro- spective entries. It is no honor to Win on an untrained, poorly fitted animal just because competition is lacking. Make your entry worthy of the red ribbon if it is the only one in its -class. One farmer says that with silage and clover and alfalfa hay he had been able to bring a -large herd of dairy cows through the winter' in good conditic.n, with fairly heavy produc- tion and without much grain. Where chronic dysentery is present in a dairy herd, try washing the caws' udders with a two per cent. solution of ; coal -tar disinfectant before Allowing' the calves to suck. Evey heifer calf killed means one less cow. Without any restriction,1 the sale of calves and cowsolor meal; can proceed so far that there will be a serious shortage of cattle. Already, good cows never were so scarce and high. - Any falling off in the production of live stock will be noticeable in grain farming. Without plenty of stock, soil fertility is difficult to maintain arid high prices for foodstuffs coining from the soil are more likely. It is apparent that something must be done to keep the productive animals on the farm. A seed in the ground is s thoesand on the counter. orth two , Bruises of the heel will be indicated by jameness, tenderness upon pressure of the quarter of the sole, usually the inside.
