Pptat0ea for EWes and Lamb.

Mr.. Wanna states in the last number
that his sheep, winteTed on oats, corn fanC
hsyl) untA they began to lamb, then on pVGa
toes. do not give milk. and The lambs die. Hi
sheep were better sed than most sheep. ana 4
is 70 be presumed were ia good condition.
Under sueh circumstances Il is unusual for the
lsnbs 10 die.-Nature bai no such intenton;
and has been thwarted BY violence: There
iS cause, and Il should be discovered.
One Of my nsighbors, who keeps large and
vigorous sheep, WinteFed jn the same manner
on hay with corn and osis, and at yeaning
Time changed IN the same way to potatoes, OBJ
tanned from the experiment precisely Mr..
Wheeler's result The loss Of his lambs was
so unusual and great, that he Is convinced that
potatoes were the fatal cause, and would now
as soon feed bis yssning ewes With ergot. II
this opinion is correct, i can be proved only by
the cumulative evidence Of like results from
many experiments; but although the above two
DO not fully prove any thing. or justify belief,
they should excite inquiry and direct careful
observation.
In reply 10 the question Of best food for ewes
and lambs, l would suggest that no change Of
food should be made suddenly. When the food
is changed there is necessary change in the
animal machinery Of digestion and assimilation.
This change requires q certain time during
which the wants Of the animal are not fully
supplied.
ed. The change when made, should not be
from more to less nutretions food, as from corn
and oats 10 potatoes; and
Sd. Ha change must be made, it sh ould
not be ut the critical period Of parturition.
During CESSATION the food should not be
changed, but slightly and carefully increased
until the last few weeks, when it should be
alike until the lamb is two or three days old !;
then increase the food without much fear.
The best food for sheep is grass, and there
is no equivalent In winter have had best
success with hay made from small herd grass
and clover on dry land, and yielding too or
little more to the acre. Give as much rs they
will eat. Corn and oats once a day, and
some roots or green food usually ruta baga or
turnip J once day. Some soils are adapted
to sheep, and on such the flock requires great
or Gare and more feeding with grain. When
the lambs come in the winter, il is desirable
to keep up the condition Of the eve but If she
is good nurse this is hardly to be expected.
keep only the large New 0xfordshire sheep
they are great breeders, and good nurses
When these sheep as is common, have two or
three lambs in March, l fed them as well as
know how. Not large quantities of grain, but
feed carefully, and yet ungrudgingly-often
and ofVarlous kinds; but with all care, the
ewes before grass grows, will be lighter than
in winter. On grass they rapidly recover aud
never lose eve and very rarely lamb

BREAKING STEERS.

In breaking pair of steers, first confne ons
OF them in yard Ia To IS feet square, high
and strong enough to hold him, then enter the
pen with aswitch three or four feet long, and
with your pocket filed, not with rocks, but
with ears Of corn, apples, carrots. &c. Tame
the steer by feeding him, and convince him
that you mean him no harm. Having done this,
! introduce my business to him by getting him
into corner with as much gentleuess as posi-.
be.--Here stroke him and pet HMM various
ways, feedinghim with a nubbin or Two Of
corn.
OF course he must learn to "haw"-so |
strike him gently on the of ear with my switch
and With my back to him twist his tail, Ia lit
lie twisting is better than more y having sue
ceeded, l conduct him again to his corner and
order him TO "Who"-whch from the force OF
circumstances be is compelled to do: Thus
teach i'm to "stand" as we'll as "haw," and
in short time he will obey the command in any
part Of the pen.
After sufficient practice in the pen, l let him
out into large yard and then drive him with
equal success Here he becomes we'll accus-
toned to the "Who. Haw ,Gee," processes.
But il he does not prove sufficiently tractabe
! return him again to the small yard for furth-
er discipline. The other steer l serve in the
same way.
Preparatory to yoking l drive them both
into the pen and exercise them together, max
ing one stand while the other comes
up as il coming under the yoke, the whip be-
ing held out to represent the yoke. Then ia
king the bows out Of the yoke, | lay it OF
their necks. taking care not to frighten them in
the operation, then put in the bows, and have
"a yoke of oxen But previous to yoking, drive
them side by side in the large yard. While
driving in the large yard either single or
double, use a whip 8 or 10 feet long. and when
driving both, put on lash two feet long.
CAuTToNs.-Keep cool ! use judgment for
yourself and for your cattle. II they kick YOU
look out mex: time, but don't return the COM
plimeRt, for you are not to consider yourself on
equal terms with them. A little patting and
rubbing is better. If you have not Christiani-
ty enough TO return good for evil, don under~
take TO break steers had rather break q
pair of wild steers for IS than a pair that has
been iniudicously handled for $40.
Be very careful not 10 overload them, and
never drive them till they get out of BREATH
Many cattle are broken in spirit and constitu-
tion while young, Indeed, very few know
what a good. well-broke, wsll-fed, and well.
tended pair Of oxen can do. Never whip, and
never talk loud. The superiority of this mode
in economy Of time, in ease of execution, and
in final results, will be apparent enough to any
one who trys it. CHIRLEs H. WALKER.
