RAISING SPUING LAMMS
IN WESTERN OREGON
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vnllis, Ore., May 17. Raising sprinp
lambs is well adapted to the limatc
conditions of Western Oregon a
does not require creat capital ot
special skill, nccordinir to Prof. E
L. Potter, head of the Oregon Agr
cultural College Animal Husbandry
department. The industry also fitf
in with approved crqp rotations and
is valuable in building up depleted soil
Neither is it in immediate danger of
being overdone.
The industry may be made profit
able on farms where hay, grain, clo
ver, vetch and rape arc grown. MucJ
the same conditions are required fo:
this industry as for dairying except
that it need not havo the same ac
cessibility to marltet and that some
range land may be used. It is just
as profitable as ordinary dairying, al
though it may not pay so largo a pro
fit as dairying conducted in the most
approved manner.
No expensive equipment is needed
in the way of building.s. Th? sheds
necessary to shelter the floe'; may
be constructed at a very small cost.

was recently constructed at the Col
lego at u total cost of $25. It accomo
dates about fifty sheep but does not
provide storage room for hay.
The most profitable time for grow
ing a good, cheap lamb in Western
Oregon is March, April, May and
June. The best ersults arc gencrallj
obtained by pasturing the lambs or
sown pasturage. It Is necessary to
have several fields in order that eacr
kind may be utilized in its propel
season. It is also necessary to have
a special pasture to be used for fin
ishing. Ordinarily no grain need be used
but it may occasionally be fed with
profit when it is very cheap or whei
mutton is high. The grain should bi
fed in creep so that the lambs ma
get the grain while the' ewes are kep!
from it.
The grain should be about one halt
a pound a day which by extra feed
ing and care mey be increased to
nearly one pound.

ORIGIN OF THE PEARL.
Th. Ancient Thought It Wai a Drop
of Dew From Heaven.
No record exists or even tradition as
to the discovery of the first pearl. The
mystery of its origin lias doubtless con
tributed In no small degree to render It
the prime favorite that It has ever been
in the eyes of the orientals.
From time Immemorial the nations
of nutlquity have tixod the pearl to
decorate their persons and adorn their
temples and we Unci many curious be
liefs existing as to Its origin. The one
most prevalent In Pliny's time was
that pearls were formed from the dews
of heaven, falllii; Into the open shells
at breeding time, and It was In allusion
to thls pretty conceit that n noble Vene
tian lady named Corraro hud a gold
medal struck (lieailnu the date l(!20i
on the reverse side of which is an open
Bhell receiving the drops of dew from
heaven which form into pearls as they
fall. The motto was "Roro divlno"
(by the divine dew).
In these more practical but less poetic
days the generally nccepted theory Is
that some topelgn substance, possibly
oven n grain of sand, having by acci
dent entered the shell of the oyster, a
certain amount of irritation Is Induced
which causes the exudation of a pearly
secretion (known ns nacre), and this
effectually covers up tho Intruder, and
also that with the growth of tho oyster
the pearl Increases In size.
The pearl, unlike nil other gems, re
quires no assistance from mnn to en
banco Its value, or from art to add oqp
iota to Its perfect loveliness. National

their presence is hardly discovered
until after seeding. The chief injury
of the plant is in crowding uot crop
plants. Clean cultivation and liming
the soil will eradicate the" plant. Tho
cultivation should include plowing
the stubble to throw the root stocks
to tho surface, keeping the surface
free from tho pest during tho sum
mcr, and growing a cultivated crop
the next year. Liming the soil will
stimulate the crop plants making
them outgrow tho sour sorrel, and
thus curtail the number of weed seed
matured."
