(Sood condition and excessive fat are two different things. it Is easier to keep a hog well than to cure him when sick. ' Clover and ulfalfa purllully replace pasture grass In tho winter.

The writer Ima often practiced tba telling of the turgor lauibs when two r three wmki old and carrying them llio troughs, handling them ao gen tly aa to awoken no alarm and putting them down beside It. placing a llttla food In their Dioutha, when presently Ihny will got the tmite and begin eat ing of their own accord. After one or two have found the feed the others j will l.y Imitation aoon follow until all ., , ' , will he eating aa greedily aa little plga. tlce aometlmea to aprlnkle little conrae brown augur over the grain to Induce them to eat It at a very early go. The main Ingredient of the lamh'a ration muat bo bran, which ahould be freahly ground, preferably I roni me local mill, iM-elng that It la more palatable than that which baa been atored In bulk. To thla mtiNt bo 1 added cracked corn not finely ground, with oata, a trifle of ollmeal or of aoy bean a. j Thla ration la elnatlc and may be varied according to what la required ' of the tamba. Hhould they be deatlned : for very early alaughter, aa "bothouae" i Inmlm lira,. Mini mutt uiv tutntiM will I make them very fat at an early age. Thla ration would, unleaa the corn were rentrlcted, be unaultable for lamha Intende4 to remain upon the farm or to !o aold aa breeder, aeelng that It would develop on extreme de gree of fatueMa at too early an age, and these Inmlm pushed thua to pre mature rlpcneaa would never there after innke aa strong and valuable lnHp. There ore, of course, many combina tion)! of rations (hnt would te aultable for these Huckllng rains. One that oc curs to tho writer that he has often used In hit own practice la a mixture of corn, bran and ollmeal, giving the following prixirtloii: Forty unls of con re cracked corn, forty pounds of wheat bran and twenty pounds of coarse ground ollmeal. To thla may lie added liny amount of oats desired, aeelng that onta themselves contain an almost perfectly balanced ration, and If aoy Irf-nns ore available they may constitute alHiut lo per cent of the ra tion with excellent result. Joseph E. Wing lu I'eiiusylvaiiln Itulletlu. Fdinfl Exptrimtntt. There Is much to lenru In regnrd to feeding. The common practice la to give the buy ami grain scpnrutely. Ex-perliui-iits made to t)st the values of food under different systems of feed lug demonstrate that the best results are obtained where tho gruln la ground, the hny cut Into short lengths, the bulky food then moistened and the grain nod hay mixed, which la done by sprinkling the ground grain over the hay. The mode, demand more lnbor, but ut the present time grinding tullla and power feed cutters are cheap enoiik'h t'j be within reach of all. The mixed food Is better dlKcsted, la more highly relished, and a xnvlng Is effect ed lu the ijuautity, as the careful prep aration lessens tho waste. Bedding For Animals.

For ii borne that has a scum on ono eye mix eight grains sulphate f cop per with two ounces distilled water and apply a little to tbe eye twice a day with a feather, am continue It for several weeks If needed. For Inflamed Eyea. A soothing lotion for Inflamed eyes In a horse may be made by mixing sixteen grains of sulphate of morphia, half a draui of fluid extract of bella donna leaves and half a dram of sul phate of elnc lu a quart of cold water, using the lotion to keep constantly wet a soft cloth tied over tbe eyes. When the Colt Is III. A colt that chews and gnaws boards and other things Is uot doing well. Give him dally a teaspoouful of .,salt mixed with tho same quantity of bone menl and wood ashes and a quart of bran. If he Is not being groomed dally let him have the comb and brush fif teen to twenty minutes each day. The 8heep Nostril Fly. With tho hot weather the sheep nos tril fly Is likely to cause trouble. Tho nervousness with which sheep regard this fly Is similar to that of tho botfly with cattle, but Instead of gadding madly anywhere tho sheep huddle to gether and try to escape the fly by keeping their noses to tho ground. Tho common method of placing a pioco of rock Bult behind a board through which a hole Is bored, mak ing a hole a trlflo smaller than the muzzle and lining tho hole wlHi tar, Is an effective oue, ns tho fly will not lay Its eggs In or about tar. For tho com fort aud well being of the sheep, this should be done tis soon as tl ore Is any slgu of the fly being about Caw POINTS FOR TliC SHEPHERD.

The filth on the long t:;.l attructa the blow fly and la on Inviting pl.iee where- , In to deposit Its larvae, which In-fore long develop Into the dread maggots. The broad tail of aome breeds when allowed to lemulu full length la, to a certain degree, a hindrance at the breeding season. It will also le found that In tbe majority of cases the (lock ed Inmba will outweigh and outgrow their undocked com pun loua. D'x-klng la an advantage, but It never should be pobtjKincd until sheep are full., ma tured, for lu audi cases It la cruel, aa the bone and nerve formation la then complete. Aa a rule, the best age la from one to two week a, at which age It will cause no setback to the lamb There are several methods for making the cut, but for Instant painless dock lug I believe a sharp hand ax and bard wood block to be the moat humane. It also makes a smooth cut that beala quickly. Kucb a cut will bleed, but I have never hod a case of bleeding to excess. The best aurgeona tell us that wound which bl-els beala more sure ly without risk of blood poison than a wound which falls to bleed. Therefore the heated docking pinchers will not always give best results. Pure pine tar ahould alwaya be applied to the atub to promote healing and to resist genua. "Dock, but dock young." Let thla be your motto. The Black Faced 8hop. The severe climate of the Scotch highlands has developed several breeds of farm stock especially adapted to re sist cold and storms. The Black Faced Highland sheep la one of the oldest o! the breeds and lu hardiness la aur passed by none. The fleece la extreme ly long and coarse, not equal In qual ity to that of aome other breeds, but very heavy. The hardlncsa of tbe abeep baa at tracted aome attention in thla country, and a few (locks have been imported, mostly to northern New York state, suys American Cultivator,. It la a rather small sized sheep and somewhat wild in disposition. The mutton ii BLACK FACED HIGHLAND BAat. (A ward.-J flrat prize at show of English Hoyal Agricultural society.)

The writer thiuks It wise to suggest that the novice lu reading the history of breeds and perceiving how they have Ueu made up by the mingling of bloods of diverse races should uot conceive the Idea of producing a new race of Bheep" on his own account by crossbreeding. It is true that a .Ju dicious mingling of the bloods ot the Merino and English breeds may make a very profitable farm flock, but usual ly the II rut cross proves best, and the half blood ewes will bo of nioi"te unl! form character and greater profit than tho three-quarter blood should another cross be attempted. IU Is particularly inadvisable to be frequently changing from a ram of one tfreed to' a ram of another. The'pro spectUe shepherd should decide what type of sheep he prefers to breed and, after purchasing a ram of that kind, should steadily thereafter continue us-. Ing a ram of the same breeding. The only exception to this rule should be; that supposing be Is crossbreeding! upon a Merino foundation, be may de sire to keep part of bis Merluos pure, j when, of course, he would select bis ewes of highest type and breed them j to a pure bred Merino ram, using tbe rant of mutton breeding upon the rest of the flock. Joseph E. Wing lu Penn sylvania Bulletin. Mare and Colt. When tho colt Is out to grass com mence feeding hlui some gralu. whlob can le done In this way: Build a pen lu some suitable place which Is the fuost convenient, making It high enough so that the niara will uot try to Jump It, nnd have tho space from the ground to the bottom Uiard stillk-U-nt to allow the colt to pass under. Put In a handy gate, tlieu au ample feed trough. Lead lour mare aud colt into this iiidosure and let them eat together two or three i times aud they will soon learn where tho food Is. Tnko out tho mare, shut up tho gate, leave the colt lu. Keep a good supply of oats there, and you will and the colt there regularly, running in nud out, getting his ration. When lx months old it is time to wean tbe colt. Tho colt will have learned to eat, aud tbe result Is that when he Is taken away from bis dam ho does not tulss her so much. J. P.
