SHEEP,

On low. wet land there is but little
use attempting to raise sheep. as disease
will almost surely appear and make the
venture Improbable. On large ranges
of cheap lands, whether on the prairies
of the West or on the hills of the East
or South, there is no other stock which
will so fully utilize the range and make
the best return from it.
Every farmer who has neglected his
lambs will want to sell them in the latter
part of the autumn. Extra food will dit
them for the sale before that time, and
they will bring a better price, as the
market is not then over stocked by those
who must sell.
1t is questionable whether any raiser
of sheep or other stock lost money when
feeding while grain was high. At such
time but few are feeding, and by the
time they are fattened they will bring
enough extra price to pay good profit
over the increased cost of grain; but
this will not bar diligence, study, care
or culling.
1t may not be so just now. but it is a
pretty good general rule that when
other people are inclined to run away
from sheep is on general principles a
good time to go after them. At least
one should not turn sheep himself and

CARE OF UMBRELLAS.

An umbrella seems to be an article
that is either treated with such scrupu-
lous care that one would imagine it
serves no other purpose but ornament,
or with such neglect it is little wonder
that an excellent article becomes
cracked and worn out before it has been
used half a dozen times.
The old fashioned gingham or alpaca
umbrellas are about as durable articles
in this way as can be secured. But wo-
men usually like something less utilita-
rian and more ornamental. In other
words they respect their umbrella
enough to wish it to be of silk. But a
silk umbrella requires care. and they
usually receive the opposite treatment
from what they should.
The average person in coming in from
the rain either opens his umbrella to
dry it or turns it down on the tip to
drain it. Neither of these things should
be done. The umbrella should be stood
on it's handle to drain. so that the water
will run off the edges of the frame and
not lodge at the tip. under the ring,
where the silk is thickest. The umbrel-
la should be allowed to dry as it drips
instead Of being spread open TO dry, be-
cause the fiber of the silk is more strain
ed in this position and is liable to crack.
The same umbrella should never be
used for the rain and the sunshine. II
different umbrellas are kept for these
two purposes, they will last three times
as long as one umbrella used Indifferent
ly for rain and sunshine both. When
not in use, in the house. never allow the
umbrella to remain in its CAGE or strapped
up in tight roll. IT should stand loose
ly in closet, protected from the dust

but the milk is of as fully good quality.
In other words, the character of food in
fuences the yield and the quality of but
ter from any COW.
Home diaries use the small separator
to obtain the cream at once, and feed
the fresh, warm skim milk to the calves
and pigs. 1t is the best feed in the
world for all young stock, and when
to it is added oil meal and ground corn,
wheat and oats or other rich prepared
food, the best growth is obtained at
nominal cost. The separator is revolu-
tionizing the dairy business.
More attention is given to dairying be-
cause of the depression in beef CATTLE.
Modern appliances have so lightened
the labor about the dairy that farmers
are everywhere getting good dairy cows
and home dairy appliances. and this is
having it's effect upon the general grade
of butter of which there has been little
enough good to be said.
The cost of feed has been high. and
many dairyman has either got rid of
part of his stock or has cut them short
in their rations of meal or bran. Per-
haps neither policy was for the best.
Cows we'll fed more than pay their way,
even at present prices. Doubtless in
the spring there will be dearth of good
mixers, and many will be in the market
to buy.
Winter dairying can not be made
profitable unless good. warm, well ven
tilated quarters are supplied and not one
farm in thousand has such quarters
unless dairying has been followed. A
summer dairy is not usually fitted for
winter one; on such place the animals
will need most Of their food to keep them
warm.
With the dairyman it is simply pro-
cess of buying feed and making money
out of it. He turns his money quickly.
He should learn to know just how much
profit he can make out of given ration.
He can then vary his ration with the
season and the price.
Cows calving in the fall are usually in
excellent health, and do good work all
winter. The calves come in at time
when they can be disposed of at good
profit. for meat is usually higher then
than in the spring, when there is sur
plus of calves. The sale of these may
buy almost the whole of the feed for the
cows for the winter.
1t is hardly practicable to ask that
farmers keep only thoroughbred cows.
They could hardly afford the cost or
sacrifice those on hand: but there are
often excellent cows among highly
graded stock which. il carefully selscted,
will prove all that one could ask. The
chief care is to Gull out those which are
Improbable.
What shall be done with the calves?
They are often not worth Il milk they
devour. and yet it goes hard to kill them.
Rural New Yorker says to boil fax seed
IN water enough TO make thick, trans
parent Jelly. 1t tastes good. and is good.
By the time the calf is three weeks old
it can use pint of this in its milk, and
stronger foods can be added gradually.
