Hanlly a winter (taunt but from tlu groat tlu-i' raiiKoa of the northwest vou-.i-h some story of the tutelleuca faithfulness ami endurauce of a shep herd's only couiprnlon, til collie dog Tin-He sheep dog came by their na tun- and training houestl, fur elthel they or their a lire tor came from th sheep dotted hllla of Knglaud, Scotland or Wales, where for generation! pasl the supreme effort of the shepherd hal been tu produce a perfect sheep dog, They huve succeeded well, for no Dial eulil'l excel tlu-iii In sheep lore.

The dog does not reason a to the why nml w In-refore of hi affection, for tha worst sort of a brutal shepherd may have the most faithful dog, one that tr i w J- SI lTl II ( OI.1.1K KHKl'IIKKD. will inliiil the sheep on the hllla, pa tiently n wait his muster's coming from tin- tavern and Kiiide his reeling foot Hti-pi to Ills home. On the areat plains of tho west these iIu-h have made It possible for one mau to care for ;i,iu or 4.0K) aheep In a flock. All they ask Is a bite to eat, anil once In awhile, when their feet are tilled with the sharp pinea of the cac tus, they will come to have them taken out. 'J lier.- is no value on a well train ed sheep ili--. The well bred collie which takes the prize at the lK-uih mIiow Is lit-nutlful to look at, but bl lioiiieller brother, the trained dog of the nunc, Is worth more. In the new country the work of the aheep dot; Is hard. It Is on a big male. In the old country the work la easier, but it has Its liner points. In the now country the doic may drive 2,(HXI sheep; In the old country a clog may have to drive a.ih.'i or 4.IMN), which tunes more thought and Kk i II. In the old country the feature of every country fair In sheep di.-tflct Is the ;-heep dog trial. A trophy Is the annual prize, and the shepherds and their dogs cotne from afar olT to try for the cup. The tlelil is cleared of the crowd. Three sln-ep are taken In a wagon to the far end, perhaps Into a bit of wood, and there turned loose. The shepherd and his dot: must get these aheep to gether, di-lv them the length of the Held, through certain staked walls, through gales and over bridges and llnally Into a pen built In the open wltti no guiding fences on either side ami with but narrow openings. Ily word, gesture and whistle the man directs the dog at long range The dog keeps one eye on his master and one on the sheep. He slinks along close to the ground or covers It at lightning speed, aa the need of the mo ment may demand. He works the aheep with human intelligence and speed and energy of which no mil Is capable. Ti.'O work of the trained sheep dog puts his kind at the head of U list of Intelligent animals. Theso trials for the trophy are great feature of life In the aheep coun tries. Rivalries are engendered and often neighborhoods divided over the respective merits of the dogs. The day of the trial Is the great day of the country fair, and the lctting la high between the factions. IOoks do not aeein to count In this trial of skill, for the great long haired collie of the type kniiwu In America is nut always the best. The dog that carries away the trophy may be a little, short haired, homely and Insignificant brute, which slinks to tho heel of his master like creature of no spirit. Rut send him after the sheep, and Ida whole charac ter seems to change. lie Is slow and gentle or quick and bold, aa the aheep may require. His whole attitude Is tense nn.l nervous.

Taking it all In all the trotter will grow and thrive Just as well with a good straw bed In n log hut as In a bed of moss In a pala'e barn, and the common farmer who, from long experi ence, has learned to attend to all the little w auls that go to make up the ev eryday life of the colt, keep Isith ends growing equally ami bring him up to the full size and form that nature de signed. Is the farmer that will realize the profit there Is In breeding the trot ter. Thousands of dollars may be lost to the breeder each year by careless ness In looking after the colt In the first years of Its existence, says I.lve Stock. The Indifference with which young horses are sometimes treated Is, to say the least, very reprehensible. They are turned out when very young to roi.gh it and left to roam at will, exposed to all kinds of weather and al lowed only a dry ration of straw or a little hay, and that none of the beat. Colls can Hlaml n great deal of cold If the weather Is dry, and It la not neces sary to house them. It Is the cold rain and sleet that chill them and material ly affect their growth, and, like plants. If they nre stunted In the start. It Is cry hard to get a rapid, healthy growth out of them afterward, as It will show- on thnii as long aa they live. Jlaaraateai Baylaa" Laaa. Wyoming cattle and sheep compa nies, says the Ivnvrr Stockman, are using large amounts of soldiers' and forest reserve scrip In purchasing lands on which there are springs and other water grazing arena.

A Nt Vo'k man who la actively In terested Id all that pertain to light harness horse recently said that when fashlou decreed thut It waa correct to drive horse with as short a tall a It was possible to make, everybody who wanted to be In the swim followed the foolish Idea, and the unfortunate borsea aoffered accordingly. Now that a large number of the dock tailed boraea bare been worn out and broken down, says The National Stockman, they have be come common In the rank of bard working horses, and delivery wagon, eipresa wagon and even peddlers' wagon are now pulled by dock tailed horses, so that diminished caudal ap pendage la no longer confined to the ranks of the high tuneil brigade. When ever any fad and the dock tailed horse waa only a fad become common the leaders of society drop out. and It then naturally goes out of fashion. It was so with the bicycle. A long a the price of bicycles was held up to a poln that kept them out of reach of the common people they were popular among society folk, but when Mrs, lion Ton found that on ber dally spin with ber wheel she waa liable to en counter her washerwoman, the grocery boy, ber own servants or any other o the working classes abe soon became dlsgtuted with the wheel. Now that the short tailed horse la common the exclusive set have gone back to the long tall clasa, and many a fine pair are now to be aeen In the fashionable quarters. The shrewdest denlor quick ly caught on, and, while many horses are ahown with their tails tied up, they axe not docked except by order of the purchaser. r SEED CORN. UraTaarr riclrf Caadldoaa. It will not be a great while until the corn grower of the west ought to be providing hi stock of seed corn. There are men who profess to be able to se lect seed corn so that "every grain will grow" without testing it, but there are very few who can afford to rely upon select Ion alone and oinlt a test. They may think they can, but that Is only because they have never tried their ability under eiact test conditions that Is, they have never planted weil tested seed by the side of that which bad been selected merely and noted the different results. In view of these facts the Iowa Homestead affirms that every corn grower should test, as well as select with care, the seed bo pur pose to use, and, aa to the manner of the test. It advises aa follows: There Is a disposition among those who test their seed corn to do It In the easiest way that I to say, between Wet cloths, under carefully chosen and exceptionally favorable conditions. But what the corn planter desires to know s not what per cent of the grains will germinate under the most favorable conditions, but rather what per cent will not only put forth vigorous roots, but a vigorous plant under field condl tlons. Testing between wet cloths In t pan will show a great many more grains germinating than will ever make a plant that ought to be allowed to grow aa a fiart of the field stand In testing, therefore, an effort should lie made to give an approximation to field conditions. Aa a means to this end we would suggest that a shallow box should be procured large enough to contain the seed to be tested, rut luto it a couple of Inches of soil, well pulverized, place the seed upon this sumclently thick, taking care to count the seeds, and then cover with, sny, two luches more of the soil. Keep the soil moist In the box In a germinating temperature. The need should come up In from five to tea days, eight days lielng nbout the aver age If there be no forcing conditions supplied. Before making up one' mind a to the vigor of the seed the plants should be permitted to grow an Inch or two In height. By that time tho ob server can form a good opinion of the percentage of the seed that will grow, and grow vigorously. After these have been counted. If the experimenter will examine the seeds yet In the ground be will find that a considerable numlier of them have put forth rootlets, but lack vigor sufficient to make plants. In an ordinary wet cloth test In a pan these grain would be counted good when, In fact, for the condition In which the seed corn Is In tended to grow they nre not good at all nn lietter. In fHct, than those that did not even germinate. It Is reasons of this kind that render It necessary to make the earth test under conditions as near like those of the field as possl ble, rather than to rely upon a mere pan test between c'.oths. H ladaatry ea New I.laes. According to official rcxn, our Im port of hemp fiber for the past five years have averaged In value t7S,473 annually, coming chiefly from Italy and southern Kussla. This hemp Is worth about 7 cents per pound and Is used principally In the manufacture of carpet warps. In addition, we Import an unknown but doubtlessly large amount of manufactured bemp In the form of the cheaier grades of linen. The domestic product of hemp report ed by the last census, at a valuation of S cents er pound, was worth $tKK),fk!0 aud was grown chiefly In Kentucky. This hemp Is used principally In place of Jute butts for cordage purposes. The Kentucky bemp producers grow a short plant In small arean with shallow plowing and little or no fertilizing. The crop Is reaped and broken by band, aud the filter Is extracted by the process of dew retting. In addition to these heavy charges, an annual rental. averaging probably $10 per acre. Is or dinarily paid for the bind. It 1 stated that there Is a reasonable prospect of establishing an extensive bemp Indus try In the United States on new lines, Involving the use of either a taller va rlety or two crop the short variety, growing the crop on large areas of cheap land, plowing deep, putting on the necessary fertilisers, reaping and breaking by machinery and using the process of water retting.

'Mccause you own cowa, no yon coo- aider yourself a dairyman?" asks fleorge E. Newell In The American Cultivator.

FARM CONVENIENCES. reedla Davlers Tkat An Haar Economical aud sanitary methods of feeding animals, whether they be fewor many, are some of the exacting points of good farming. 'Tis a homely say lug that "a small leak will alnk a great ship," and the small leak of wasteful and careless feeding may In time de stroy much of the profit on the average M430IR RACK. farm. Home device of Interest to those who give attention to thla matter are Illustrated by the Ohio Farmer. One correspondent writes: Since the value of corn fodder la mora dowdy estimated by our farmers, and bay 1 becoming more valuable and somewhat scare and we are feedlug more fodder In our barns during the winter season than In former years, various contrivances are brought Into use to make the feeding of stalk more convenient. In our hay barns or barns with manger built to economize space In the stable room, we find that the mangers are too small to feed stalk handily. In the first cut Is shown a rack attachment which I much used and liked In our country. It la made of 1 by 2 lath throughout An opening Is left at A, where grain can bo easily thrown into the feed box. f'ie outer portion of the rack la hinged on the manger, which makes It very conven ient to let down and empty refuse stalks on the barn floor, where they may be worked out luto tho manure yard. The fine refuse can be worked out through the stable for bedding. This arrangement Js very convenient also to feed bay, and where small man gers must be used they soon pay for themselves In the saving of feed that Is often trampled under foot Aa to the trouble of boga getting their feet Into the feeding trough, an- SANITARY BOO TROUGH. other correspondent semis a sketch of a device for preventing It He says: The notched board must be high enough that the hogs cannot get their bends over It, and they will keep their feet out. We Just drove a stake down at each end of the trough and nailed the trough to the stakes. Then we ran the notched board lengthwise of the trough and nailed to the stakes. This will do when you feed In one place all! the time. If you want a movable trough, make the end boards longer, so that the trough will not upset, aud nail a solid strip to each end, long enough to mill the notched board to It. Do not let the notches come down lower than the top of the trough. We have had clean troughs ever since we adopted this plan. The Hard Lot of the Urladntoae. Tho grindstone on the farm sees ptty hard usage. The softer the stone, the harder usage it receives. The grinding surface of the stone la more likely to be as shown at the left of tho cut than It is to have an even face or slightly beveled surface, as at the right In the same picture. The former con dition comes from grinding axes, scythes, machine knives, etc., with their edges lengthwise of the stone In stead of across It This ennnot tie helped In grinding some tools. But when the stone does assume this sh.iie, making it impossible to grind a chisel or any flat edged tool decently, It is a good time to get a spade spade are usually dull and bold It on tho atone until It Is sharp, when the Irregu larities In the surface of the stone will CXTKtTB ANO TRITE OBIXneTOVKS. hnre disappeared. A grindstone should never be left exinwed to the sun. The weight of the handle will cause one portion of the stone to remain upper most, nnd this, from exposure, will as sume a different degree of hardness from the underside, so that after aw hile the stone w ill be ground out of a circle. If the stone has to stnnd In the os-n, a flat box can serve as a cover, says a correspondent, who gives the foregoing advice In Rural New Yorker.
