As Easy Matter to Pat Them New Location. la a A handy portable hog house In use at the Montana experiment station Is descrll«ed in Orange Judd Farmer as follows: These houses have been tn use for more than two months, and the. idea is such a practical one and the outlay so small that we give our exact plan for building. It might be stated right here that the material for the roof, ends and In one of the ends the door Is made. A swmglug door, as In Fig. 3. Is fitted to the opening, and the binges, which are at the top. are simply loops of wire. This wire runs through holes bored above the door and also through two boles through the top of the door, the Idea being to have the door swing either in or out, according to the win of the bog. Two round openings are place«!, one in either end of the house, near times a day. using tepid water, and the birds soon become accustomed to the practice. Immediately after the hens have finished drinking the troughs are emptied, placed on end out of the way and used only when the next watering of the flock occurs.

THE SHEPHERD ------------------------------------------------------ Ci Cornstalks are valuable folder foe sheep, and If cut green and properly cured and then put through tbe shred der there should be but little waste, says the Farm Journal. When considerable cornstalks are fed some grain aiul roots should be adued to the ration. Don't feed tbe sheep on tbe ground. Hare good troughs. It never pays to let sheep begin the winter thlu. When tbe pasture gets abort, begin on the gralu ration and keep It up till tbe sheep are In good order. They will winter bettor and have better lambs by and by. The forage ration should preferably be bright clear bay. If tbe sheep are uot tn good fiesta give them about two gills each of grain. It la well to keep sheep In lota of fifty each. One ram to fifty ewes. When the climate Is mild open sheds are preferable to closed one*. Where closed sheds are used they should be aired during tbe day by leav ing tbe doors open when the sheep are In the yards. Protect heavy wooled sheep from cold rains. Tbe weight of the water will sometimes prevent the sheep from rising. It chills the ewes, and lambs are lost by It. Give some oil meal with the grain ra tion.

They will do tbe better for It Make It a point to count tbe sheep every day. As soon ax tbe wool Is clipped from the sheep tbe ticks go for tbe lambs. If tbe sheep are dipped each should tie brushed, ae some of tbe young ticks may adhere to tbe old sheep; then. In about two weeks, dip both sheep and lambs. That will Aniak tbe tick busl- Fto.

Earthenware fountains are often broken by expansion during freezing, nnil the only convenient meth od of providing water Is with the aid of wooden troughs, which can be scald ed and kept clean with ease.
