Cost of Wintering Stock.

Every farmer should in fall as well as
in spring take account of his live stock.
If he does this Systematically every year
he will be less likely to winter over what
next springs returns will show has not
paid the cost of keeping. There is alto
gether too much conservatism about
farmers in the matter of stock getting
and keeping. They get what is easiest,
and keep it merely because they have it,
neither being good reason. The mer-
chant is careful to stock up only with
what he can sell at profit.
On the farm there is only feed and barn
room for certain amount of stock. The
question for each farmer should be: SIS
this stock I now have the kind that | best
understand and can make most money
from? If it is not, away with it and let
me get better!" To be breeder Of the
very best should be the farmers anabi-
tion. Then, though he sell all his
present herds and begin with d single
animal, he will have the certainty of a
progressive increase in value of his live
stock, from which in a great majority of
cases most Of the gains Of farmer are
obtained.-American Cultivator.

Care of Scions.

The scions cut before the wood is in
jured by frost should be kept in cold
place, but not freezing, in slightly moist
earth or sand, where they will be pre-
served in plump, dormant condition.
The usual time for grating is early
spring, when both the stock and scion
are dormant, but about ready to start.
Farm, Field and Stockman advises that
plums and cherries be grated very
early, before there are signs of any flow
of sap or swelling of the bud. If the
scions are kept dormant, apples and
pears may be grated much later, even
in full leaf The scion must be in DOR
mant condition whatever the time the
grating is done. t@7

Live Stock Points.

Tho story is told that a young tailor
died in Bellevue hospital, New York,
from ''sheep rot" While cleaning wool
en- clothing he got ''some of the stuff
under his finger nails, and blood poison
ing set in. 1t is quite probable that
while cleaning the clothing the young
tailor got infectious microbes of some
kind under his finger nails and SO
caught the contagion that resulted in
erysipelas and death, burt it is more than
improbable that the poison was sheep
rot. 1t is far more likely to have come
from the person who had worn and
Boiled the clothing before the young
tailor took it in hand to clean it.

Size in Hackneys.

So far as we have seen, size in the
hackney is what has to be specially
studied during the next few years. With
the hackney we have no measure of ca
pacity, borrowed from horse racing, and
we know Yorkshire cobs which would
carry twenty stone grazier twenty
miles out and home. But we are after
something different nowadays; we want
harness hackneys, horses with style and
step, all that is snowy about them in
front of the saddle girth. We have a
difficulty in getting these big enough,
and studbook rules will not allow us to
take in little Cleveland blood.-Lon-

-
Methods Adopted by a Successful Illinois
Sheep Raiser.
Having made the purchase, the first
thing to be done on reaching home is to
sort over the bunch and divide them
into lots, each flock being composed OF
animals of the same size and age as near
as possible. Under no circumstances dc
we permit any ewes with the wethers,
but keep them entirely separated.
Having assorted the sheep, the next
consideration is one of feed. If possible
I would have the sheep run on green
pasture of some kind-clover or blue
grass through the summer and rye
pasture duTng the winter months. If
they are not accustomed to the green
feed it is necessary to commence very
slowly, turning them in, say, half an
hour in the morning and the same in the
evening the first day, and increasing the
time of feeding half an hour each day
until any danger is passed.
When they are fully accustomed to
the green feed I then commence with
grain in the same way, preferring corn,
and allowing about one peck to each
hundred head the first day and increas-
ing gradually until the sheep are on full
feed, but I never give them more than
they will eat up clean. If any of the
corn is left in the trough it is cleaned
out at once and a less amount given
them in the next feed. They get their
grain morning and evening and have
free access at all times to plenty of pure
water. In addition to this treatment a
trough is kept in the shed or pasture
with a mixture Of three parts salt and
one part sulphur, which is accessible to
the sheep at all times.
find that the sheep fatten rapidly on
good cheat or mill screenings fed twice
a day, giving them as soon as accus-
toned to it as much as they will eat up
clean. There is only one other point
which should be carefully watched, and
that is, keep the sheep absolutely quiet.
Avoid all running of them with a dog,
and never under any circumstances al
low anything to disturb them while
feeding.
mlShJ aQu also IHd6 tne very AIsI
thing which is done to the sheep on
reaching the farm is to give them a
thorough dipping in tobacco juice. No
chance Of an outbreak of scab is taken,
but every sheep which passes through
the stockyards or which is shipped in a
stock car is dipped as soon as the farm is
reached.
The whole question of profitable sheep
feeding is, in my mind, summed up in a
very few words regularity in size, reg
ularity in age, regularity in hours of
feeding and Gan entire absence of dis
turbing infuences.-William P. Speak
man in Breeders Gazette.
