Mothers’ Day
The idea <d Mother's us’ Hr»!
took definite form in the mind of
Mias Anna Jarvis Philadelphia.
The loss of her own mother meant
so much to her that »he conceived
the ¡dan of a formal observance
where by motherhood might be
honored concertedly. Dr. Wilbur
Chapman voiced his approval
of Mothers day in these word»:
“I consider the obaervince of
Mother’s Day one of the moat

‘•The uninitiated think that about all
there is to sheep farming is to buy the
sheep, put them on pasture, shear them
and thi'ii go fishing,” savs H. A. Lind
gren, livestocz fieldinao for th«1 college
extension service, "such, however, is
not the case. Sheep require constant
attention and exi»*nditure of some
money.”
The average annual income per ewe
from sale ol wool and lamb», says Mr.
Lindgren, is about ^O.HOayear. The
total carrying expense is about »9.70—
which just aliout balances the income.
Included in the carrying expense are
11 25 for paatme and feed; lalior in
caring for the ewe, »1.40; ram sirvici
32 cents; shearing, packing and market
ing the wool, 20 cents; taxes, 17 cents

»1.25; and losses, M cents. The owner
it will lie noted, retains about »4.50 of
the tolal »0.70.
These figures aie averages and will
nol apply to every flock, Mr. Lindgren
explains.
All the factors mentioned
should lie inchuled. however, in figuring
the total cost on any farm.
