HANDLING SHEEP
FOR BEST PROFITS,
Tbe first requisite to profitable sheep

It will be found advantageous to
change sht'ep occasionally from one

Taking up tbe third point, proper
feed and care. I would say that tbe
winter quarters need not be expensive,

of fresh air can be admitted at will

HORSK NOTES.
Growing colts need plenty of
exercise.
Never hurry a team when
heavily loaded.
It Is a serious loos to let a colt
run down at weaning time.
Protection from stormy and In
clement weather will make feed
go further.
When you again train young
horse do It with mingled Crm
ness and goodness.
Keeping the skin of the horse
clean enables It to sweat freely,
and this Is essential to health.
K little patience tu teaching the
horse to be gentle and obedient
may add many dollars to hla
value.
DAIRY SHORTHORNS.
An
Oxford sheep are popular tn parts
ot the stit; leas known in New
Eostand. but a breed worth care
ful consideration aarwbere. Tbe
ram here pictured was champion
Oxford at the Iowa state (air. Hs
Is owned br George McKerrow ot
Wisconsin. Tbe Oxford Is a large
and handsome sheep, very aiert
and aotlTe ea Its feet for Its also.
Taken as a whole, It to t moat
prolific bread. An Oxford sire Is
as good as can be found for cross
breeding and a fine mutton type.
The ewes are very hardy, very
prolific are fine mothers and sel
dom ever hare any trouble in lamb
ing season. They are very quiet
and gentle wtrh their lambs, nave
an Immense amount of milk, and
tbe ewes never refuse to own their
lambs. Tbe rams at two years of
age often weigh SJO pounds.
ing. and get nicety started before com
ing to barn, the sheep fold may be
rather loosely boarded with no detri
ment to ewes or lambs.
If, however, ewes do not lamb till
November, December and January we
must have tbe fold tightly boarded and
papered so as to be able If necessary
on cold days or nights to keep tbe tem
perature from going below freezing.
By so doing we save very largely In the
number of lambs raised.
Pure water and salt should be kept
by tbe ewes and lambs in winter as
well as in summer. If sheep and
lambs are properly fed and watered
and their feet kept dry we have gone
a long way In properly caring for
them. There Is, however, a true need
for a thorough dipping of every sheep
each spring and fall to prevent or de
stroy ticka
For grain rations I use two parts
cracked corn, one oats, one middlings
and one of bran for ewes. Begin a
couple of days after lambing with one
balf pint once a day per sheep and
gradually Increase to one and one-quarter
quarts each, and. in case sheep
are extra large, even to two quarts a
day. Lambs get grain (one part crack
ed corn, two parts oil meal or oil cake)
In trougbs m small pens, where they
go at will through small openings.
This Is put In fresh each morning and
night and all grain left from previous
feed swept out before any fresb Is put
In trough. Lambs also have access to
clover rowen In their own pens. Ewes
get rowen from time they come to barn
If we have it for them; if not, then the
very best sweet, fine mixed bay, early
cut or else clover hay.
Appreciation of This Much Dis
cussed Breed.
In a communication to the Hroeder's
Gnzette extolling the virtues of the
dairy Shorthorn H. W. Avery says:
I am a farmer In central New York
and make cattle the main Issue. Milk
from the herd brings money every day
in the year, and every week or so the
butcher hands me a nice check for a
beet animal. I am entirely satlsUed
with the returns from the herd. It
brought me over $8,000 last year, more
than half of which was net profit. 1
Imagine they would be called dual pur
pose cows, the kind of cows that will
not down, notwithstanding the Insist
ent didactic statements of the self
styled "special purpose" men to the
contrary. Ninety-nine per cent of cows
are kept because their owners make
money out of them or hope to. A cow
that brings her owner a profit Is really
a special purpose cow kept especially
for that purpose, whether It be from
beef alone, from milk alone or from
milk and beef combined.
Six years ago I decided that the
dairy Shorthorn was the beat money
maker tor me tn the cow Une. and tbe
results have not disappointed me.
Last winter I visited Kngland to look
over tbe dairy Shorthorns. It was
not bard to find many apiendld cows of
the type that will give lota ot milk
and make good beef when required.
The English records for a day's pro
duction are la excess ot ours, but the
The dairy Bhorthorn cow Amy
V here Illustrated, owned by Sam
uel Sanday, Cheshire, Enalasd, la
a good example of this type of cat
tle. She gave over sixty pounds of
milk In a day at the London dairy
show last October. Amy V. Is a
handsome cow with dairy confor
mation, a capacious, well placed
udder and a frame that carries lota
of meat.
yearly production is not so great, ow
ing to tbe desire of the English breed
er to have bis cow go dry and produce
a calf every year. Darlington Cran
foni V. of Lord Rothschild's herd has
given In ten years a total of 1U1.74C
pounds of D.llk, or an average of 10,
174. U pounds per annum, and she pro
duced eleven calves, ouce twins. It
was Interesting to note that the milk
as produced by this herd and weighed
for each cow made a total of 504.SSO
pounds for 1910. and the weight of the
same milk sold was D(XJ,715 pounds, or
a shortage of less than fifteen pounds
per cow for tbe year.
Care of the Stallion.
Do not put tbe stallion in a foul,
dark stall. All horses are fond of hu
man companionship, and especially the
stallion. Tbe stall should be so ar
ranged that he can see people. Soli
tary confinement is not good for his
disposition. One essential thing is
plenty of exercise, if the stallion Is
not used on the road or in tbe harness
In farm work be should bave a large
paddock with g strong fence to run
In. Tbe horse Is mode for muscular
effort, and it is cruelty to deprive him
of It. Screen the stables with wire
netting to keep the flies out Anything
that adds to the comfort of the horses
is money saved.-Furm Journal.
Paralysis From Overfeeding.
Paralysis In swine most often fol
lows overfeeding of rirh nitrogenous
foods to animals that are closely con
fined. Pigs do best when allowed a
considerable range and not fed too
highly. As this affection, says the
Tanners' Digest. Involves the spinal
cord. It is not only liable to prove fa
tal, but is not, as a rule, satisfactorily
treated. First remove the cause. Cut
down the feed and allow plenty ol
range, and If not fed too liberally they
will forage about and get exercise.
Young pigs only partially paralyzed
will often come right treated as abjva
advised.
Experiments With Horses.
During the years 1900-10 experi
ments were conducted on four Danish
farms for the purpose of determining
the relative value of oats and Indian
corn, of oats nnd mangels or ruta
bagas and of whole and cut straw In
feeding work horses of tbe Jutland
breed. The main experiment period
lusted, as a rule, from two to three
months.
By substituting corn for oats two
pounds of corn was found equal to
two pounds of oats In the grain ra
tion, and some straw was saved by
muking this change. When about
four pounds of oats was replaced by
roots in a ration of from twenty to
twenty-four pounds of oats two
pounds of dry matter In tbe roots
proved equal to two pounds of dry
matter in the oats. Such a change In
the ration did not apparently produce
any Injurious effects on the health or
working capacity of the borses.
No Profit In Scrubs.
Do not try to make money with a
cow that does not pay for her feed:
it Is a very uphill Job. !f you have
three such cows sell them nnd put the
rioney Into one good one nnd you will
e surprised at the result, which will
be some profit and much less work.
Head your farm papers and try to pet
out of the rut of milking old Rrindle
just because your father used her and
her mother, but cross her with a good
dairy bred bull and keep at It If you
cannot afford to kill her and buy a
better one. Rural New Yorker.
Ideal Milk Storage.
Tbe Ideal place to store milk and
tream Is In a little tank between the
pump and tbe stock tank. All the
water that goes to the cattle must
flow through here, and naturally tbe
milk is kept cool.
