4 serious mistake, too often made by
those who undertake the care of sheep,
is that the lambs are allowed to run
with the ewes until they naturally wean
themselves. BY this means, the ewes
are weak at tipping time, go into the
Winter weak. and, consequently, are
not in condition to doiustice to the next
generation OF lambs.
With those who are raising lambs for
fatening and selling at three and four
months old, the ewes, of course, have
time, to recuperate, and, consequently,
this viii ouiy apply to those who are
raising their lambs with q view to max
ing them producers of wool, or as sires
and dams Of the flock.
No lamb should be allowed to run
with the eve more than four months,
unless some special reason, rs for ex-
hibition at Fairs, or for other show pur-
poses for, il this be done, il is always
at the expense Of the dam.
Early lambs should be weanod IN
August, and those that come late should
in no case run longer than September
But, when weaned, if the greatest
profits are to accrue. they should not
be allowed to fall away and pine for
the dam, but should be given such care
and feed as viii carry them over Wean-
ing time and bring them forward with
out much, or at any rate with small,
loss Of flesh To do this, Il it be in
tended 30 give the best possible care, it
is necessary that they be taught to eat
grain while runningwith the dam but,
if they be intended only for thier fieeces,
at the age we have mentioned they will
be pretty we'll able to take care Of
themselves if supplied with good pas
ture.
When lambs are weaned, they should
be taken from the ewes and placed in
pasture where the feed Is flush, out
Of the hearing Of the dams, where, III a
few days, they viii entirely forget the
ewes. But il they have been Taught to
eat grain with the ewes before this
time, i must In no case be taken from
them, but they should be melted to
eat literally, by every means possible,
Of grain OF its equivalent; for it is
during the fall and the first Winter
after weaving that the young Of any
domestic animal suffer the most.
As cold weather approaches, the
IainDS SnOIl0 De taUSiltJD eat PUN pains,
rutabagas, manigolds or other roots that
may have been raised. They should
not be allowed to shrink, for, If they are,
the expense OF bringing them back into
condition will be in exact proportion to
the flesh lost; aud this rule viii apply
to MI other domestic animals, as well
as lambs.
The pront Or y'Ieep husbandry is IN
exact proportion the care given.
There is no stock t H.. pays better than
sheep, If the soil AMI conditions are
suitable and 10 stock + less if neg
lected The rule that SD ep pay twice,
once in the wool and once il the NUT
ton, although true, IS only so when
good care is given. II this be not the
case, they are apt to cost twice, once IN
the investment, and again in the loss
from want of care and feeding.
