of it; see that the sheds are well ven.

Do NOT feed corn to pregnant ewes il
it can be avoided; it develops Zoo much
heat and fat.
KEEP an eye on the sheep at this sea-

animal, since they masticate their food
more finely.-Prairie Farmer

Cost OF FattenIng Lam bs.

Lambs 10 days old were fed at the
Wisconsin station on cows milk from a
bottle. The feeding lasted three weeks.
The cost per 100 pounds of gain during
this time, with milk at GO cents per 100
pounds, was S347. They were then
changed to sweet skim milk, oats, green
clover, and green fodder corn, and fed
for four weeks. valuing skim milk at
25 cents per 100 pounds, oats at 90 cents
per bushel, etc, the food per 100 pounds
Of gain cost $3.50 From that time on
the cost gradually increased with the
weight Of the lambs and the amount OF
grain they required, until, when five
months old, the cost was $3.50 per 100
pounds of gain. Compared with pigs

Its Importance and Pecuniary Value ON
the Farm.
Barnyard manure is the most impor.
tant manurial resource of the farm and
should be carefully saved and used: 1t
represents fertility drawn from the soil
hnd must be returned to it if produc-
tiveness is to be maintained.
This manure contains all the fertiliz.
Ping elements required by plants in
forms that insure plentiful crops and
permanent fertility to the soil. The
urine is the most valuable portion, but
zit is best used in connection with the
ssolid dung, one thus correcting the de.
fciencies of the other.
4 The amount and value of the manure
produced by different farm animals is
put at the following figures in the
latest farmers bulletin, the computa.
tions being made on the basis of 1000
pounds of live weight: Sheep, 34.1
Epounds of manure per day, worth 7.a
|cents; calves, 67.s pounds, worth 6.7
cents; pigs, S3.6 pounds, worth 1877
cents; COWS, al pounds, worth cents,
and horses, ASS pounds, worth 70
cents, basing calculations of value on
market prices of commercial fertilizers,
winch probably gives results much too
nigh, Making liberal allowances for
these and other considerations, Prof.

POULTRY DUST BATH.
Why the Wise Farmer VIII Provide Dus
Boxes for His Birds.

Foxes Tor HIS Birds.
Nearly if not quite all species OF
fowls use the dust bath. They choose
spot OF fine, dry soil and scrape little
holes, where they pulverize the dirt
until it is reduced to fine dust. In
this they roll and shake their feathers
and allow the dust to penetrate to the
skin. It appears that in some way
this is deletericus to the parasites
which infest the plumage or the skin.
1t has been said by some naturalists
that as all insects breathe not
through the mouth as warm -blooded
animals do, but through little open
ing in the skin situated in rows along
the side of the body-the particles of
dust close these openings, so that para
sites die of suffocation as quickly as a
quadruped would if held under water.
This has been denied by some scien-
lists. who say that these holes are de-
Tended by very delicate but effective
apparatus that makes it impossible for
any foreign matter to enter, no matter
how minute it may be. Be this as it
may, know that wild birds take dust
baths whenever the weather and the
state of soil permit. Nature is a good
guide, and whether the dust bath is
for the prevention and absorption Of
effete matter which has become too
odorous, or whether it acts as an in
sectidc, it is certainly advantageous TO
fowls or they would not use the dust
bath. ! say that the careful poultry
keeper will provide dust boxes fos
BIRDS filed with fine dust, coal ashes,
thoroughly dried and mixed with in-
sect powder. 1t makes but little differ
ence which of these varieties of soil
you use; the principal part is to have it
clean. That is, not a highly manured
soil, but comparatively unfertile one
Is preferable. The next qualification
is that it must be perfectly dry.-Al-

AMONG THE POULTRY.

POULTRY will suffer from irregular
feeding.
CORN is heat producer and wheat is
an egg producer
SEE to it that the cabbage leaves go
to the poultry. Cut them up.
No RUBBISH should be permitted
about the houses or poultry yards.
GRANULATED fresh bone and steamed
cut hay are recommended by poultry
man for eggs.
BUILD the poultry house on the dry
est convenient spot you can find, even
if it is sandbank.
TURN the eggs in the incubator twice
a day. Some declare that it is not nec-
essary, but don't believe it.
IT may be safely assumed that hen
cannot remain healthy in foul quar-
ters, and without health she will not
lay.

at hand for the poultry. Crush them

them fine. Farmers Voice.

Economy in Poultry FEEDING.

Economy can be practiced without
depriving the fowls of suf-
ficiency. Anything suitable that will
serve to make a variety should be al
lowed them. Small or inferior pota-
toes may be cooked for the hens; it
will not be necessary to mash them.
Give them whole, and the hens will do
the mashing. The same is true of tur-
nips, of which the hens are very fond
in winter. 1t will be found that the
use of corn, oats, wheat, bucl1wheat
and barley will give better results than
when corn alone is used, even if moth
ing but grain is given. This is suf-
ficient proof that corn is not a perfect
food. Every farmer knows that when
corn has been fed for quite awhile the
hens will begin to refuse it, which is
due to their being we'll supplied
with the elements contained in corn.
They require a change, because corn
no longer provides them with what
they need.-Farm and Fireside.
