Sheep Raising on Alfalfa-Facts and
Figures.

Despite all that has been said on the sub
ject of the productiveness of alfalfa, doubt
is still expressed by many relative to the
rapidtv of its growth. On this subject we
are now in position to add practical tes-
timony, as strong as any yet adduced, that
of Solomon Jewett, of Kern county. Mr..
Jewett is one of the oldest and largest
Sheep-raisers in the State, and has proba-
bly, done as much to improve the breed of
our sheep. by the importation and growth of
fine-blooded animals, as any one in the
business. He was one of the first to rec
ognize the value of alfalfa as feed for stock,
and to engage in its growth. He has now
$50 acres sown in alfalfa in Kern county.
With its aid, he avoids all suffering among
his sheep during the trying period between
the first rain and first grass. Nor is this
the only or the highest use to which Mr.
Jewett is putting alfalfa He leeds his
mot valuable fine blooded Merino stock
on 1t e1ciuSiUely, and that it is admirably
adapted to their sustenance will be potent
to all doubtless who will inspect the one
hundred animals Of the finest blood which
he has now on exhibition ut the stock wards
corner Tenth and Howard streets.
Mr.. Jewett feels certain that an acre of
alfalfa will keep-and keep in fat condi-
ton, tOO-twenty sheep. He does not say
that this conld be done in every county in
the state. His experience is confined to
Kern county, the climate and soil of which
seem to offer a most cOngenial place of
growth for alfalfa. Illustrative of the pro-
ductiveness of the clover in that region.
Mr.. Jewett informs us, that on a twenty
acre field of alfalf;l-after moving in Nav
ast-he put 100 bucks and 90 head of
horses and cattle, each of the latter,
when full grown, as they were all in this
case, are estimated to be equal to ten sheep
The twenty acres not only sustained the
number of animals named but the clover
finally got so high in one of the patches
INTO which the tract was divided tina, it
had to be moved in the middle of July.
The acres of the above twenty were seeded
last year and ten only this year.
Mr.. Jewett sees no reason to doubt that
the growth of alfalfa will be perpetual.
Irrigation is beneficial the first year, until
the deep reaching root of the plant has
shot down far enough 10 reach moisture
After that, irrigation is only useful us a
stimulus to IN extraordinary yield. or as
means Of drowning out gophers Outside
of these uses it is not needed
1t is estimated that sheep grazed on al
ftl Il all the year will produce IN average
clip of six pounds against five on ordinary
wild feed The fleece, because of its great
er cleanliness and superiority and equality
of staple, will be worth two to three cents
per pound more each sheep fed on alfalfa
would therefore yearly yield 81 to SO cents
more than if grazed on wild feed These
facts, the result of experience from such Il
reliable and practical source. prove beyond
Il doubt the great value of alfalfa in the
sheep and cattle-raising business in Cali

Can YOU say now that you have no

Greta clappcd her hands. The fingers
now looked us usual, but the little thimble
and sewing-ring still remained. The old
woman kissed little Greta and went
away.
The little girl ate dry bread and drank
water; but when she looked at her hands
she lau ghed at her small servants.
" Now you shall help ME make unclc's
bed" cried she gladly, and they all has
tened to lift the pillows and turn the COW
erlid. and Lillepyt did what he could.
That next morning when Greta awoke
she told Tummetott and all his four COM

her hair. They had never done it SO well

There lay Il snow-white egg in the nest.
Tummetott and Slickepott carried it i'm

Greta commanded her small fingers to
