Lambs That Pay Hest.

Lambs that grow fast are the ones
that pay because they reach the mar
ket while prices are high A difference
of only week in getting lamb to
marketable weight may entail loss of
one dollar on it's value That is the
best reason for using rams OF the NUT
ton breeds for producing early lambs
the lambs grow rapidly. An early lamb
Is worth more than full grewn sheep
at this season

EARLY Stabling.

The WISCONSIN DAIRYMAN has offered
many suggestions to its readers to try
the experiment of stabling COWS early
this year. Almost every dairy farmer
will show interest when he hears
anything said about the problem Of
feeding COWS. Yet the way that COWS
are handled has great deal to do with
success III feeding. In the term 'hand-
ling" is included this question of
stabling. 1t is frequent practice to
leave COWS out at night as long as they
can Craze, until the weather gets quite
cold. If the farmer expects to make
any profit out of his milk, this is a
wrong practice. If he is trying merely
to subsist his cows, it will do. Butter
is bringing q high price and it will pay
handsomely to try earnestly to help the
COW III promoting as large flow of
milk as possible. Heat rela1es the
system and promotes the flow of milk
Cold contracts the system and shrinks
the flow of milk, and also increases the
consumption of food to no good purpose
This is the time Of year when it will
pay to consider these things.

The Great Fruit Belt.

We hear a great deal about the great
fruit belts in different parts of the
country, but that belt Of sandy soil ex-
tending westward from Green Bay
across the state is slowly but surely
making a reputation for Wisconsin as a
fruit growing state, which every citizen
may well feel proud Of
Few people, who are not acquainted
with the facts, will believe that there
are orchards of 1900 bearing apple trees
within 10 miles of the twin cities, but
anyone can see the same by visit to
Waupaca.
Large quantities of small fruits are
also grown in different places through
out central Wisconsin and there is no
kind Of industry that pays such favor
able returns as fruit growing. What
can be done in Waupaca county can be
