Sheep, as a general rule, emerge from the winter in a poorer condition than they enter it. If proper methods of feeding and care are used the re­ verse of this should be the case. Sheep will thrive much better on forage crops than on dry feed; hence the advisability of sowing some forage crop which will grow late in the fall. Several crops have proved very satis­ factory, but none probably more so than cowpeas. This plant grows lux­ uriantly and has a large percentage of protein. Being a legume, it also enriches the soli by the addition of nitrogen, one of the main elements of plant food. Cowpeas should be plant­ ed In May, June, and the earlier part of July. The amount of seed to plant to the acre is from 20 to 40 pounds. The change from green food to dry food should be made gradually. Straw, fodder, silage and alfalfa are some of the dry feeds which may be used. Cleanliness In both watering and feed­ ing troughs Is essential. A good way to keep the troughs clean Is to turn them over after the sheep have eaten grain. Sheep need a warm fold. Don't for­ get that. The fold should be made of tight board fencing which breaks the wind and also makes the sheep more secure from dogs and wolves. It should be large enough to provide room for all. There should be no cold drafts through sheep’s quarters. No Royal Road to 8uccess. Too many people have the idea that Small Slna Only the Beginning.
