C are of L ambs .—Sheep should be closely watched in order that tbo lambs may be taken proper care of and receive any necessary assistance im­ mediately after birth. More lambs die when less than twelve hours old than at any other time, and if the farmer wishes to increase the number of his sheep, he must watch his flock very closely until the lambing season is past. Unless the new born lambs receive prompt attention there is dan­ ger that they will get chilled and live but a short time. If the sheep have been well fed, and aro kept in a warm place, almost every lamb can be saved, and without any great amount of trou­ ble. A few minutes’ attention at the right time may save the life of a lamb, which in a few months, and at small expense, can be made worth several dollars. At lambing time the sheep should be closely watched, and if there are any lambs that are unable to take care of themselves they should be assisted. After they have sucked a few times they will generally get along very well. Not only should the sheep be looked to during tho day, but also in the evening, as feeble lambs will not be likely to live until morn­ ing. It is certainly very poor policy to let a lamb die for want of tho little care which would save its life.— Lan- caster Farmer. LITTLE BUTTE. Jas.
