One of the very best writers 1 nn"s
sheep husbandry that we have :
speaking of the winter care of lamh.
has said that theoretically corn is NJ,
good food for them, but he practicallr
says that it is and that his exper;sn..
has proved it, though he admits tb.,
oa's would be better. Now, as A ma,
ter of fact, his experience has nrovoa
nothing of the kind. He has cot
theory in the wrong place. His eo o,
notions are the theory. Corn is MT :
suitable food for young stock, and tbs.
is all there is about it. What is tbs
purpose of feeding lambs and other
growing stock? To produce growth
of course. Corn will not do il 10 ner
1ectlon, and not even to a considerable
degree. 1t docs not contain the ele.
ments to do it. But, says our friend
my lambs have grown upon ii. Ths
argument is not sound. Natures law.
are being violated all the time, and wa
still live. but it is difficult to tell a.
ways how we do it. We unhesitatipo.
ly say we do not feed much corn q
lambs, because it is not the food tbav
need. Rather than feed them too
much corn, it is far better to brine
the lambs through the winter mostly
upon good hay. Clover hay will do i
nicely. Clover hay and roots will do
the work excellenIly. - Western Rural

Mend Your Fences.

There are still many large sections
and even entire States where farmers
are required (and content to do so) to
keep up long strings of fences for the
protection of crops against stock. The
time is rapidly approaching when the
so-called "Stock-law" will be gensr-
ally adopted, and the farmers Of the
future viii wonder that their fathers
ever submitted to the cumbrous, UNI
just and expensive system Of fencing
against stock. In the meantime how
ever, fences must be kept up where
the old law prevails, and the waste
and destruction of timber must go on
until the supply becomes unequal to
the demand. Now is the best time TO
do the work. The timber splits more
easily, and such heavy work is more
agreeable in cold weather. = Para
Farmer.
