WINTER CARE OF SHEEP

Sheep in the pen will sometimes
lose their wool in large quantities, and
the cause remain a deep mystery to
the owner. This comes from various
causes, and an investigation of the
condition of the sheep will be necessary
to ascertain the difficulty. Sometimes
if sheep have been in poor condition
and are thriving quickly, the change
will cause the wool to fali-out in
quantities. Again, if sheep are infested
with vermin, rot, pelt rot or scab, they
will lose their wool rapidly. For pelt
rot and scab there are various ONT
ments recommended. If the sheep
losing wool should be dipped as early
as possible, a new growth will be
encouraged on the bare places, and
will perhaps prevent farther falling
off in other places. Vermin and scab
are liable to get on the sheep at this
time of the year any way, and a great
deal of are is required to prevent
such diseases.
Sheep are very peculiar as to their
tastes and the kind of food they eat,
and they will never eat unsuitable
food unless it is the only alternative.
If hunger and starvation stare them
in the face they will take up with
almost anything, but they will never
grow rapidly or take on much flesh
under such unfavorable conditions.
The feeder should cater to their
desires, especially during the un
pleasant weather of fall and winter,
the sheep cannot select for
themselves. The most successful East
ern sheep feeders adopt the plan of
feeding at least three times a day, and
feeding only such food as the sheep
will eat up clean. Too liberal feeding
is a mistake in several ways. There
is a great deal of wasteeattendant on
it, and the sheep do not profit by an
overabundance. A small rack should
be kept near the sheep for hay, and
fresh hay should be put in it two or
three times during the day. See that
the quantity is just enough to satisfy
the wants of the sheep until the next
feeding hour. Hay in the morning
without grain, fodder at noon, and
some grain and hay for the evening
meal is the best diet. Such regularity
of feeding, supplemented by regularity
of water, will keep a flock in good
condition through the winter, and
prepare them for rapid spring growth.
A word or two may be said about
roots for sheep. A good fattening
fodder for sheep must not be too
watery, and hence a too liberal supply
of roots is not beneficial. A small
quantity of roots is good for the sheep,
and especially potatoes, which furnish
a better ration between water and dry
matter than otherwise to be obtained.
Roots are not only very watery, but
ensilsge also, and too muchaof either
one is not very good for the sheep.
Yet in England the turnip plays an
important part in making mutton. 1t
is not often, however, that one sees
the focks injured by too liberal a use
OF roots for<feed, but on the contrary
