Winter Care of Sheep.
"Speed the PlOsU."

The following, from a practical farmer,
who has had much experience in sheep
raising and who appreciates the Agricul-
tural column in The 1Agis, will be of in
terest, not only to those about to engage in
sheep-husbandry, but to other farmers as
well:
Farmers who are wintering sheep will
find that the more attention they give them
the better they will pay. Improperly cared
for they will make larger returns for the
money invested than any other stock
My method of feeding is as follows: In
the morning I feed from half pint TO
one pint of oats each, to breeding ewes !;
then turn them out in lot where they
have free access to water and plenty of
room for exercise. While they are out,
their racks are filled with hay-clover be-
ing preferred-and the pen properly litter
ed. Our racks are sufficiently large to hold
enough hay to do them until the next
morning. Consequently the racks are
filled only once dag. The sheep have
free access to the pen at all hours of the
day. At noon they should have as many
turnips or other roots as they will eat
clean. The roots are fed whole.
Not more than fifty ewes should be kept
in one pen. The pens should be we'll
ventilated and not too warm. Success
in raising lambs depends more upon the
attention they receive than the 8sJtle of
feeding. Breeding ewes should not be
kept fat, but moderately thin. They should
have free access to salt. During the lamb
ing season they should have the care of
some person well experienced in sheep
husbandry, as they require more attention
then than at any other time during the
winter. Lambs should be locked and
castrated between ten and twenty days old,
and should have, separate from the ewes, all
the cracked corn they will eat. This can
be accomplished by having small portion
of the pen Slated off, into which the lambs
can go at pleasure. prefer to have lambs
dropped in January to any other time OF
the year. Ihave now IS lambs and am con-
sequently kept busy attending to them.

Transplanting Trees in Winter.

1t is unquestionably better to transplant
trees when small, from the nursery rows,
either in spring or autumn. But it is
sometimes desirable to move large orna-
mental or fruit trees from the forest or pas
ture, or from their place in the orchard or
lawn where they have been planted too
close. This is best done in the winter, and
by the frozen-ball method. Dig trench
around the tree, making the ball of earth
two or more yards in diameter, according to
the size of the tree. For tree six or eight
inches through at the butt, the trench need
not be more than two feet deep, and may
be dug at any time late in autumn, or dur
ing thaw in winter. The places to re-
ceive the trees are to be prepared before
hand, and furnished with rich loam.-
When the ground is frozen foot or eigh-
teen inches, the block ofearth can be pried
out with levers, put upon stone-boat, and
removed to its new home. A rock LITTER,
or stump-puller, is much more convenient
machine to do the lifting and transplant
ing. If the work is carefully done, there
is no risk at all in the removal. The roots
are not exposed, and frequently the tree.
the next year after transplanting, will
make the average growth of wood. This
method is particularly desirable in remov-
ing evergreens that have been too closely
planted, and begin to crowd one another.
Valuable trees, six or eight years old may
thus be saved that must otherwise he
sacrificed. We have frequently moved
large Seeding pears from old pastures by
this means, put on new tops, and in three
or four years had them loaded with the
finest varieties of pears. In preparing Dor
ders for the transplanting of large fruit
trees, they should be made extra large and
should be well supplied with rich COM
post, and barrel or more of bones to each
tree.-American Agriculturist.

-" Be careful how you punctuate the
stove," is the latest. 1t means not to put
too much colon.
-"I wonder what makes my eyes so
weak" said sot to a gentleman. "They
are in weak place." responded the latter.
AT shop window in the Strand, Lon
don, there appears the following notice -
"Wanted 2 apprentices who will be treated
as of the family"
"A Western editor, in acknowledging
the gift of peck of onions from subscri-
Der, says: at is such kindnesses as these
that bring tears to our eyes"
-"What," said an interviewer to an un-
pledged candidate, "what do you intend to
do if you are elected 2" "My goodness ~
said the poor fellow, "what shall do if
am not elected 2"
"A young man went into florists store
the other day to buy rosebud for his af
fianced. Seventy-fve cents was the price
asked. "Will it keep" inquired the young
man. ooh, yes, a long while" "Then you
may keep it."
An awkward man, in attempting to
carve u goose, dropped it on the floor
"There, now !" exclaimed his wife, tive

answered he, lit is safe, for have got my

"A professor in Cornell, lecturing on the

remarked: "In travelling along the road /

twisted together to such an extent that o
