STOCK ITEMS.


In fattening sheep, increase the grain
ration up to full consumption.
Even in winter it is an item to give
the sheep free access to salt and water.
A farmer cannot expect profit from
cattle when he compels them to pick
up good part of their living.
1t does not pay to raise calf unless
you take good care of it, and the sooner
poor calf is sold the better
If the eve refuses to allow the lamb
to such, try catching and holding her
few times until the lamb gets its fill.
Too much fat often means loss of en-
ergy as well as health and vigor
Breeding and growing stock need the
latter
The young and growing SOW in order
to reach perfect development requires
all of the elements of her food to pro-
duce growth.
A good hog does not squeal nor is he
restless, he takes his food quietly, goes
to sleep when the meal is over and con-
verts il into fat
If for any reason some of the sheep do
not seem TO thrive as well as the rest
it will be good plan to separate
them out and give them little extra
feed
The incessant drain on young sow
sharpens her appetite amazingly, but
no food is so we'll invested as that
given a SOW that is sucking litter of
pigs.
Wheat bran and oil meal will not
only increase the flow of milk, but in
crease a rapid growth with young
stock and add to the value of the ma
nure.
1t is the young, quick growing steer
that pays under present conditions, and
it must be marketed as soon as breaches
that point at which the greatest profit
is obtained
The daily growth of hogs increases
dntil the animals reach two hundred
pounds. After that the gain is made
slowly as compared with what has been
made previously.
Where any considerable number of
sheep is kept better results will be Sc
cured if each grade can be kept separ-
ate. The lambs. the old and weak
sheep, the breeding ewes and the
wethers, by keeping in separate lots,
each grade will have a more equal
chance
That the farmer may establish
quick beefy kind of cattle upon his
farm, he is only required to secure
growthy specimens and good feeders,
and he can readily secure what he
wants. The objection to any kind of
cross breeding is that it cannot be con-
tinued with safety.

FARM NOTES.

Strawberries will degenerate il grown
on the same land for any considerable
length of time
In the garden especially careful
planting is an important item in secur-
ing the best results.
1t is an essential item in the garden
TO keep well up with the work, especial
ly early in the season.
THE principal reason why cooked food
for fowls fatten more rapidly is that it
is more rapidly digested
The best sermon that can be preached
on good gardening, is to stir the soil
frequently and thoroughly.
To propagate blackberries, dig about
the roots, cutting off the outer ends,
using their pieces TO grow new plants.
Some foods like wheat bran, cotton
seed and linseed oil meal return value
in the manure nearly equal to their
cost
Clover can be sown in the spring with
small grain and will furnish considera-
BILE pasturage after the grain is har.
vested
A few dollars invested in trees, flow
ers and shrubbery and a days time in
planting them will enhance the value
of the farm.
While there is leisure is a good time
to make a supply of pens that will re-
strain the old hens and let the chicks
run at large.
BY applying the animal manure as
fast as made there is but little, if any,
loss of nitrogen or other valuable fer.
tilizing elements.
An acre Of ground may be made to
grow half dozen different kinds of
supplies for the farm, thus preventing
the necessity Of expending money at
the store, but if that acre can be made
to produce cash crop that will buy all
these supplies, and require only half as
much of the time and labor of the farm
er, it is business to let the patches 90.
1t was the failure to value time Alright
that led farmers in the past TO plant
patch of everything under the sun that
would be used on the farm. All the
energy was used to prevent the paying
out of money, instead of the bringing
in of money. Nearly all farms have a
natural adaptation for special prod
ucts, and their owners have skill and
knowledge in special lines. There are
certain cash crops that give more than
other crops. These are the ones that
deserve the best care and attention of
the farmer.
A correspondent says: A very few
kinds of crops are enough for one farm.
Modern tillage requires many costly
tools, and it is better to pu IN few pay
ing crops than to fritter away time on
numberless patches Bys doing there
is less danger of neglecting anything,
and there is more net profit at the end
of the year. Some side crops may be
raised because they pay in cash, but the
planting of everything with the idea
that farmer must pay out no money
for anything is relic OF bygone era
that will never return.
