Al McLean C THE WINDHAM, ADVANCE, THURSDAY, JULY Of 1905, 'Hews Items -W, II, Chambers of Minto has built a now barn 70x00; it is expected to hold the grain clop, straw, hay, etc. off a 200 acre farm. -Near Stirling, Alberta, there were recently gathered together about 75,- 000 sheep, nearly all the sheep in the Territory, for shearing. About 40' mon are engaged in the work and it is expected that at least a month will be required to finish it, -•A cow belonging to Geo.. Baptie of Int.kefield broke into an untised well while crossing over it and dropped down a distance of 13 ft. With the assistance of the fire engine, the well was filled with water and the cow floated to the top and was helped out apparently none the worse for her experience, -There was business doing among the horse fanciers in Seafortlx on Saturday afternoon last. That after- noon Mr. Geo. Whitley bought a driver from a farmer, sold it to Mr. Tiros. Daly bought it back again, and sold it again to Mr. Forbes, who is now driving the animal. These trans- actions all took place on Saturday afternoon. It is not often an animal has four owners in about as many hours. -Duncan McKenzie, V. S., a for- mer 4th con. of Culross boy,' who a year ago returned from the Philipine Islands, where he had been for two and a -half years connected with the U. S. array, has secured a good posi- tion with the Government of the new Republic of Cuba. He goes to Cuba on the 15th of July where lie will be Assistant Veterinarian to the Chief of the Bureau of Animal Husbandry. The position is practically a perma- nent one, not depending on changes of government, and commands a good salary, besides paying necessary pro- fessional and living expenses. -A collector of postcards in St. Petersburg states that all the soldiers in the Japanese army are supplied with very peculiar postcards. These cards aro surrounded with an artistic mourning border, printed on a piece of white silk, and are worn by the Japanese soldiers on their chests. Be- fore going to the war they write on the postcard the name and address of the person to whom they wish the in- formation of their death to be sent. In case of death on the field of battle the postcards are stamped with the seal of the regiment certifying the death of the bearer, and are sent to Japan. -Racing against death in an at- tempt to reach home, W. Willis of Exeter, passed away on board a C. P. R. train at Huntsville on Friday after- noon. Willis had been a resident of the Northwest for some time, going there in the hope of regaining his lost health, but to no use. Last week he became rapidly worse and on Friday left for his home in Exeter. In his weakened condition. the journey prov- ed too much for him, and shortly after starting it was apparent that it was only a chance that the patient would realize his hopes. Near Hunts- ville he took a sinking spell, from which he never rallied, and death en- sued shortly after leaving that town. The remains were brought to Exeter. -A voracious new slug which at- tacks a.ltnost every young grain root has been discovered in Kent county. It varies in length from one-eighth to one and one-half inches when found, and appears to eat its way into the stalks of corn, which is principally affected through a hole one and one- half inches from the ground, after which it eats the entire pith out. In- quiries lead to the conclusion that de- struction caused by the slug is wide- spread, though apparently the cause is not noticed by farmers so far. Even the Canada thistle is not exempt and samples of this weed showed only the shell left, the entire inside being eaten out. The grub is tobacco brown in color with white stripes and a broad, dark band around the center of the body. Several samples have been sent to the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, and the report is awaited by interested agriculturists.• -In Cranbury township, Middlesex county, N. J., is a farm that has re- mained for 130 years in the same fami- ly. It is now owned by Sylvania Gro- ver. The first Grover to own the platce was John, who bought the tract of land in 1775. He had seven chil- dren and in 1820 Sylvanus Grover came into possession of the place. He had nine children, all born in the old farm house. In 1864 the property passed into tlio possession of John G, Grover and his family consisted of six children. In 1888 the farm became the property of Sylvanus Grover, the present owner, and six children con- stitute his family. Of the 26 children . who were born in the old house, 14 are still living, The farm house was sub- stantially built with heavy oak tint- • hers hewn out of logs and put to. gether with wrought nails. It was well built and is in an excellent state • • of preservation. The last time it was shingled was in the time of the Civil • . War and the roof is still in good con - clition. ▪ -The Prize List for the Canadian • National Exhibition, Toronto, which +� this year will be hold from Aug. 20th to Sept.

The rainy seasons of late years have made fish quite plentiful, and a num- ber of cases have been reported (and substantiated), of farmers plowing nice large catfish out of the ground in the low places. (It takes a Yankee to tell a whopper.) .4 44 Pitchfork And Revolver. Most of the farmers, through whose lands the Guelph-Goderich railway runs, have yielded gracefully and made the best bargain they could, but a few are showing fight. A Guelph accountant undertook to serve anotice of expropriation on one farmer ; lie was chased with a pitchfork but being a good runner escaped and decided he would not attempt it again. The next time a bailiff and his assistant took the job in hand, and the bailiff was threatened with a similar reception but served his papers at the point of a revolver. The farmer bowed to the display of force this time,•but he will continue his fight in the courts. One Dollar Saved Represents Ten Dol. lars Earned. The average man does not save to exceed ten per cent. of his earnings. He xnust spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he cannot be too care- ful about unnecessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly invested, like buying seeds for his garden, will save several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs but a few cents and a bottle of it in the house often saves a doc- tor's bill of several dollars.

AND MUTTON. Expert Tolls of Sheep Cross That Gives Good Results. TO develop a good 110c1t of breeding sheep for wool and mutton I would be- gin with ewes that are half Cotswold and bait Merino and mato them with a buck that is a full blooded Shropshire. says F. G. Hughes in Shepherd's Crite- rion. In this cross you get a grade of sheep that Is hard to heat for both wool and mutton, 13y this method I once got a twin lamb that sheared when a little more than a year old six- teen pounds of good wool, and when a year and e. half old the carcass weighed 160 pounds. I cross my sheep back and forth as my judgment tells me Is best. It the sheep are getting too wrinkly and the wool too short I get either a Cotswold, Oxford or Shropshire buck, and it the fleece is getting too hairy and light in weight I breed back to the Merinos. In caring for the flock I prefer green pacture for them as many months in the year as possible. Blue grass makes the best permanent pasture. Dwarf Essex rape can be sqwn as soon as the ground will work in the spring, and if sown alone five or six pounds of seed will be required per acre. Six or eight weeks after sowing it will be ready for pasture, which will last until freezing weather. A. smaller amount of rape can be sown with oats, and after the oats crop is removed 1 have an excel- lent fall pasture. Sheep like rape, but I would not advise any one to keep them on rape alone. They should have plenty of pure water at all times of the year. The Herwich Sheep. The Herdwick sheep, of which we herewith give an illustration, makes its home in the counties of Cumberland, Westmorland and Lancashire, in Eng- land, says Sheep Breeder's Gazette. Of its true origin little is known, There SlfaDWI08 sluitABLiNO xiAif. Is a tradition that its original parents came out of a Spanish ship which was wrecked on the coast near- Dudden sands. It is one of the hardiest breeds of sheep in existence. It is said that though the black -faced mountain sheep can endure the cold and wet of the winter nearly as well as the Herdwick, yet he wants a los ger "bite" and can- not exist on the "slope" Eels, which of- ten consist only of rocks and grass so short that it seems as if nothing but a razor could get anything off them, and the ewes especially fail in milking. It is said the Herdwicks will run up walls like cats and leap immense heights and chasms. A. peculiar circumstance con- nected with a strain of Herdwicks in a certain locality is their possession of fourteen ribs. LESSON IN GARDENING. Practical Hints on Planting, Fertilizing and Watering. John Thorpe, horticulturist and the designer of the famous "Wooded Is- land" at the World's Columbian ex- position, contributes these hints: For seeds the ground should be rath- er dry and crumbly and quite smooth. The smallest seeds should- be barely covered. Seeds the size of those of the radish require half an inch of soil over them. Peas and beans and the like need from one to two inches, and this includes cucumbers and melons. The larger the seed the deeper it should go. Potatoes in dry ground should be set five inches deep. Remember that everything must be made firm by tamping, rolling or treading. Fertilizing. Soot from soft coal is worth 2 cents a pound as a fertilizer•. It is also of great value as a destroyer of in- sects. - Wood ashes are just as valuable, be- ing rich in the potash without which few plants .;vill live at all. Slaked lime Is most useful. Mixed with small quantities of paris green or london purple it kills noxious in- sects. The soot, the ashes or the lime can be sprinkled over the ground just enough to cover it when a good raking will be all that is needed, It can be used at any time. Manure from the chicken yard or pigeon loft must be mixed with five times its bulk of common garden soil and allowed to stand several days be- fore it is applied. Watering. The nightly sprinkling, which merely moistens the surface of the ground, is likely to do more harm than good, as it coaxes the roots to- the surface, whera the hot sun can do them serious harts. The proper way to water is to give the soil a thorough drenching not of- tener than twice a week. This makes the roots follow the moisture deep Into the ground, where they can do the most good. Care of Horses. We know a farmer whose horses nev- er have sore shoulders, says Farmers' Advocate. Every evening after un- harnessing he washes thh horses' shoul- ders with cold water. This removes the dirt, cools the shoulders and keeps the flesh healthy. Feeding Horses. Feed horses well while working, but lessen the amount of grain on idle days. Serious results come from the neglect of this. Feed according to the 'work done. -National Stockman, Size of Flocks. There is a limit to the number of sheep that can be kept on the ordinary farm profitably. A small !look well managed will nay much better than a large one mismanaged. • Turpentine For Swine.
