Question.—W hy is it that in Georgia,
many parts of which state are pecu¬
liarly adapted to sheep raising, there are
60 few sheep raised? One would suppose
that if properly managed it could be
made a most profitable business.
Answer.— In southern Georgia there
are a good many sheep raised. Several
years ago oue of the largest sheep own¬
ers there reported that he clipped an¬
nually 90 cents worth of wool from
sheep, which cost him only 14 cents a
head in expenses. There is only one
reason why sheep husbandry is not oue
of the leading industries of tho state,
and that is, there is no law for their
protection against tho dogs which roam
at will through the country. It liar,
been said by men af experience that oue
acre well sodded in Bermuda grass will
support five sheep nine months of each
year. This was on ordinary land, which
had not yielded profitable returns in
other crops. For the remaining three
mouths we 'have other crops, such as
rye, turnips, barley, potatoes and the
hardy native grasses, all of which can be
grown in abundance. Tho sheep more
than pay for their keep in the increased
fertility of land on which they are folded.
One hundred sheep regularly folded
will fertilize eight acres of laud to such
a degree as will enable it to double the
crops produced on it. Besides tho added
value to the lands in the droppings we
have the crop of wool and the increase of
the flock, which last may be reasona¬
bly calculated as 90 per cont of the
whole. Nor are these all. The charac¬
ter of the crops required to support the
sheep are just those needed to recuper¬
ate our too often exhausted lauds. Bor
muda is particularly adapted to these
lauds and the grass roots serve to hold
the soil together and prevent the wash¬
ing away of the accumulating vegeta¬
ble matter. Many worn fields could be
thus rehabilitated, that now offer no
encouragement to cultivation in other
crops. We trust the day will dawn
\vheu the present difficulties in the way
of successful sheep raising will be re¬
moved, and instead of about 500,000, the
present number of sheep in the state,
Georgia will contain at least 8,000,000
or 4,000,000. Our mild winters and
early springs give us many advantages,
of which growers north of us are de¬
prived. In some sections of the state
tho sheep receive no a'- •’>4’ • beyond
the annual clipping, and ur til the price
of wool was so much reduced they were
even under this careless management
found profitable. If more attention
were given to raising crops for them, to
improving the breeds and to the gen¬
eral care of the floefe, there is no rea¬
son, except the oue mentioned, why
sheep raising should not bo mado profit¬
able in our section. An experienced
sheep raiser in Southeastern Georgia
once said to me, that it was cheaper in
that section to raise a sheop than a
chicken, because the chickens had to bo
fed, while the only attention the sheep
received was an occasional salting. —

The '•Harlequin** Hurt.
Question.— I am a largo grower of
tnrmp and mustard soed. In the spring
before they ripen much damage is dono
the plants by a spotted bug. What is
it? Can you give a remedy?
Answer. —The bug that injures your
crops is without doubt the “Harlequin”
bug, the worst insect enemy of all cru¬
ciferous plants. They live through tho
winter hidden under leaves or trash of j
any kind. They are ready to deposit
their eggs from the middle to last of
March, aud then in from four to six
days these hatch out a brood of larva?,
which at once commence their deHruo
tive work by piercing the leaves and
sucking the sap. The leaf thus pierced
soon wilts and dies. These insects are
shy and timid, aud upon flic approach
of a person try to hide behind anything
that will conceal them. They are very
difficult to contend with, as they cannot
be reached by auy of the arsenical poi¬
sons. All rubbish under which tho bugs
may take refuge during the winter
should be carefully burned, and infested
fields or gardens should have clean cul
ture. Hand-picking into pans contain
ing water or kerosene is often resorted
to as a remedy. Pyrethrum in decoction
or powder, and kerosene emulsion may
prove effectual when the bugs are young.
Cabbage growers plant mustard be¬
tween the rows of cabbages, which be
ing preferred by the bugs attracts them
in large numbers, when they are effect
ually destroyed with pure kerosene,
Possibly you might adopt this plan sue
cessfully if your turnips and mustard
are sowed in drills. I hope you will try
it and report result to this department.

Answer.—I n a ton of chicken manure
there are 67 pounds of nitrogen, 41
pounds of potash, and 48.60 pounds of
phosphoric acid. A ton of well rotted
stable manure contains 11 pounds of
nitrogen, 10 pounds of potash, and 0
pounds phosporio acid. Thus yon see that
the chicken manure contains six times
as much nitrogen, four times as much
potash, and eight times as much phos¬

Question.— 19 thore any groat risk In
feediug damaged poa vine hay? I have
known cases where it has beon fea
without any apparent injury.
Answer. —As a rule it is dangerous
to use stock food of any kind which is
not perfectly sound, particularly in the
case of horses and mules. In tho case
of pea vine hay, it has been demon¬
strated that where it has fermented or
become moist after being stored, salt¬
petre is formed in sufficient quantities
to produco violent irritation of tho kid¬
neys. and If the feediug is persisted in.
death often results. Mouldy hay is also
regarded by experienced feeders as ex¬
tremely dangerous.—State Agricultural

It seemed impossible to correct or even to

u I had become greatly weakened," said
Mrs. Herr, in telling her story to a reporter,
“and the awful cramps and the frequency
and nature of tire fainting shattered spells alarmed j
me beyond belief and my system,
“I tried electric treatment! it failed, and
I did not know where to turn for help, '
“ A friend told me how her mother Vtt-J had 1

“ I had but little hope for success;

cured. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pitts for Pata
People had done what all the previoua
treatment had failed to do.
“I am fully restored to health now, and
do things that I had hardly dared attempt
before.”
No discovery of modern times has proved Pink
such aboon to women as Dr.Williams’
