Sheep Husbandry.

After some preliminary remarks, S. A
Reader, of Fitchville, Huron Co., Ohio,
writes us as follows, about the profits Of
his sheep raising: Il rent farm for per
cent. on its value, and pay the taxes,
amounting in all to 800 per annum.-
Last year I kept SO sheep, principally a
mixture of Spanish and French Merino,
with our common Merinos. Their wool
brought me $3.50. I raised 40 lambs,
worth at feast $50. l fed off from the
farm $35, and raised corn enough to fat
ten $267 worth of pork; and after using
for my other stock all I wanted, sold 15O
bushels. [ also raised 446 bushels of
oats; kept one span of horses, yoke OF
oxen, two COWS, a yearling colt, pigs,
chickens, &C.
Here are the figures: SO sheep, $3.50.
40 lambs, $50; making $21O. From this
deduct rent and pasturage 1925, and we
have left, $85 for interest, which is con-
siderably over 335 per cent. on the invest
ment.
This, [ think, will show that sheep will
pay considerably over 40 per cent. over
and above all expense of care, washing,
shearing, &C.,
Let us recollect that in calculating the
profits of sheep husbandry, we must not
invest largely in stately mansion for
dwelling, and other extra farm buildings,
and then the sheep for them. With the
same consistency, we might buy a city
lot, stock it with sheep, and expect to re-
allze 40 per cent. on the investment. We
want only, pasture, fodder, sheds, care,
&c., just that which is needful to make
profits O. Farmer.

Churning in Winter.


Where is the farmers wife that has not
been troubled more OF less with churninq
IN winter? We recollect having to help
churn for two days; and, after all, we had
to throw the milk away, for the butter
would not come. Cows fed on straw can
not be expected to have much butter in
their milk; the poor things need the whole
OF it to burn in their lungs to supply ams
NAL heat. We opine that this is one of
the reasons why butter will not come.
1t is well known that butter is held in
emulsion, in the form of oily globules, en-
cased IN film of caseine, curd, and that
agitation bursts these films, when the oil
or butter being specifically lighter than
the milk, rises to the surface and concretes.
This sffec. il always accompanied by the
formation Ct Tactic acid from the sugar of
milk. Bus below temperature of so Q
TINS formation of Tactic acid does not take
place. and consequently the butter will
not come.
10 make butter come, then, we would
advise better feed for the COWS. In addi-
ton to the straw or hay, give some shorts
a few mangel-wurtzel or beets, and, what
is best of ell, little oil-cake. Then your
milk will contain butter, and to get it out
will not be difficult Place the milk where
1t will not freeze, and the cream in tenn
perature of about 60 o, and keep it till it
getssourwhich will not be long, if the tenn
perature is uniform. Avoid heating it in
the day and freezing it at night; such a
course will turn the cream bitter instead
OF sour. In churning, the tempertute
should be in winter as high as 60 . when
the cream is placed in the churu, and about
100 when the butter comes. A good
Thermometer churn" is of great advan-
tage in winter as well as summer, not be-
cause it has thermometer, but because of
the admirable means it affords Of placing
waxm water outside the churn. We are
surprised that they are not more general
ly used.-Rural " y

Colds in Sheen.

These animals are not unfrequently af-
fected with colds and coughs during the
winter season, attended with mucous dis
charges, or running at the nose. The
best and most effectual remedy with which
we are acquainted, is the spines and
boughs of white and yellow pine and
hemlock, and common tar. The latter
should be rubbed over their noses, which
may be easily and ehectually accomplish
ed by spreading it on board, and sprink-
ling salt over it. The animals will deyour
the tar with the salt, and not with SO much
care as to prevent their noses from be-
coming pretty well smeared with it.
Careful attention and liberal keep will
strengthen the sheep, and greatly assist
them in bearing up against this disease.
After sheep have been kept on dry fod-
der several weeks, they highly relish
green or suculent food. If they are con-
fined to the yard, scatter over it the ever
greens mentioned above, and they will
be found to leave the best timothy or
clover and feed on the pine and hemlock
leaves. Turnips, beets or carrots, chopt,
and fed to sheep, tend tokeep them strong
and In healthy condition, and there is
lostnothlng to the farmer in feeding these
and occasionally few beans or a little
corn. They yield more wool and larger
and stronger lambs, under such treatment.
and afford more profit than if scantilv fed
