Turning te Grass.

Farmers do not usually take as much
preCautiOn in changing their herds from
hay to grass or from grass to hay in
the fall of the year as the Importance
Of the question demands. An old
farmer said to the writer a number of
years since, that corn meal fed to ami
mails the first thirty days of their
going to grass was worth SO per bushel
if carefully fed; that animals thus fed
would gain fifty pounds the frs5 thirty
days on grass if fed one quart Of meal
daily at night and what hay they
would eat, while the same animals, If
turned out and not fed anything but
grass, would lose fifty pounds, thus
making a clear gain Of 100 pounds in
the animal in the first thirty days at
grass. The writer has tried the ex-
pertinent on yearling steers, andfound
the statement to be correct by actual
weighing on scales when turned from
hay to grass, and tho weighing at The
expiration of thirty days Of pasturing
in the month OF May in this locality.
The experiments thus made have been
on shOrt-hOrt steers of high grade
Ordinarily, farmers think they cannot
spare the time to bring up their cattle
and feed them for q month; but, if by
so doing, there is so great a gain, and
by negleCting to do SO there is so much
loss, would it not DE the true policy to
take q littleextra care and give a little
extra feed the first thirty days of
spring pasturing, and also IN the fall {?

To Prevent Them From Fighting.

Ii two or more rams are kept togeth-
er, they are liable to fight first, in the
spring when freshly shOrn, second, to-
ward autumn. When freshly shorn
they sometimes fail to recognize each
other, but toward autumn they be-
come qUarrelsome. At this latter sea-
son 1t IS important to keep other
sheep at distance.
II they are housed at night. thew
may be put in a tolerably small apart
ment; by keeping thus closely together
they do not have room to harm each
other, and will soon become sufficient
~ acquainted so that they can be
driven to pasture with but little fear
OF fighting. Should there be one or
more that feel disposed to continue
their Combativeness, drive them to the
barn, procure q piece of leather about
seven inches square-an old boot ton
will answer-then with a sharp knife
cut it so as to form a cap the upper
part OF which his placed on top Of the
head, between the horns; then tie the
two points on each side together.
around the horns. A little practice
will enable one to fit a cap in this
manner as nicely as a shoemaker will
TIT a boot to a foot. If necessary the
cap can be drawn tight to the nose by
making holes, and tying from the sides
under the Jaw. The cap will entirely
destroy front view, and at the same
time give a side view, enabling him to
travel about where he chooses. This
cap, when it is properly adjusted, will
stop the fighting; at least it will so
cconfound them that they cannot de-
liver effective battle.-Anerican Agri-
cUltUriSt.
