is quite an item in these times.
Then they require very little at
tention and care. They get their own
living even from poor and rock pas
ture, which is their natural abode,
where other stock would starve, until
very late in the fall, and can be turned
out earlier in the spring than either
cattle or horses.
In the winter is the only time when
they need feed, and this is but small
item in comparison with the care
and attention that milch COWS require.
Then the profit they produce will
favorably compare with anything on
the farm.
I bought last fall six eve lambs,
fine specimens they we're. They cost
me twelve dollars. AS they we're late
lambs they did not have any young
this spring, but they will make all
the better sheep for this season.
They we're fed during the winter
cheap hay with some oats, and oc-
casionally feed of carrots or turnips.
They yielded this spring forty-two
pounds of wool, which at the market
price of Is cents, is worth $3.50, or
over fifty per cent, of their original
cost. But this is not all. These
sheep would be worth in the spring
So a piece, another fifty per cent, as
this was the price at which
they were sold at neighbors auction
sale. The manure from them would
be about the value of, the labor of
tending to them through the winter.
So that am well pleased with my in
vestment.
Another case, which is that of
neighbor, gives fully as good results.
He wintered twenty-one sheep. He
raised twenty-one lambs which he
sold to a butcher for $500. The
wool sold for 1924.
Taking the value of the sheep at
So piece, and counting the manure
to balance the care bestowed, we have
return in one year of $17.70 above

Clippings from Farm Journal.
SHEEP ON THE FARM.


The keeping of a few sheep is a
source of much profit to every farmer.
1t may not be practicable to keep
them in large numbers, as the land
may not be suitable, and the owner
may not choose to invest too largely
in one item of husbandry.
But the ordinary farmer who has
some rough pasture land, can with a
very slight outlay, keep flock of
from twenty to fifty, and realize a
handsome profit upon the amount in
vested.
There are several advantages in
the keeping of sheep which make it
desirable.
They can be turned into money
readily at almost any time of the year.
If man has horse which he pro-
poses to sell, he must feed it extra,
and even then may not be able to
make a sale just when the horse is in
prime condition. Horse cannot as a
rule be sold just when one wants to
sell.
But sheep can be butchered and
sent to market anytime from January

The immigration of large numbers of
agricultural settlers will tend to aid
the development of the enormous and
very rich areas of gold producing
ground and the growth of the min

market for the food products raised
by the neighbofing farmers. We shall
have in this combination a field for
the employment of labor absolutely
illimitable and an outlet for the man
ufactured commodities of the eastern
states far exceeding any present an

annually in this country is now about

Udney Y. Wilson, contractor and

High Street, West, said regarding DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People:
''For years I have been out of doors in
all kinds of bad weather, looking after
my building contracts. [ have work
ed many days in the rain andcold to
complete some building. About two
years ago [ noticed [ could not get
around as [ should, and commenced

ting any relief, and for nearly year
[ suffered intensely. [ kept up as long
as [ could, as I had several contracts
for buildings that had to be complet-
ed.
'At night [ could not sleep. My
physician said it was my kidneys, and
every day [ went out doors they
would keep me awake nearly all the
following night. Instead of getting
better | became worse, and worried a
great deal about my work. The doc
tor said [ must quit work and go to
bed or he would not be responsible
for my life.
Cali the medicines I took only help
ed me temporarily. Some days [ would
feel better and go out day only to
be again confined to my bed for weeks
at a time. One day my wife suggest
ed that [ try DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, and [ laughed at the
idea.
'Finally when [ got into such
condition that [ would take almost
anything in the hope of relief, tried
the pills. They helped me from the
start, but I would not acknowledge
it and said it was the other medicines
that had just commenced to work. l

to be Expected from the
Beet Sugar Industry.

Those who are able to recall the
conditions existing during the year
1878, when manufacturing had almost
ceased, business in all lines was stag
nant, and real estate had no value,
can note the parallel with the present
situation of affairs. Then, as now,
people saw nothing in the future that
was hopeful They could discover no
signs of returning prosperity. Never
theless, it came, and with a rush.
The farmers for three years had
tremendous yields of wheat which,
owing to the crop failures in Europe,
brought unusual prices. This gave
the railroads large traffic at remun-
erative rates. The pressing demand
for commodities far exceeded the
manufacturing capacity of the coun-
try, and new enterprises of every
kind were set on foot. An unprece-
denied boom followed, which lasted
with short Interruptions, until 1892.
There is every reason to believe that
the country is on the eve of another
period of good times, but it will orig
mate from another cause. With the
adoption of a tariff bill giving ade-
quate protection to sugar, tremend-
Gus impetus will be given to beet Gull
ture. Millions of capital will be ex-
pended for machinery, and farm
lands, especially in Kansas, Nebraska,
New Mexico and the states further
west, will come into demand. The
sugar beet is vegetable requiring
during the season of ripening but lit
tie moisture. An excess of rain makes
it watery and of little saccharine
strength, hence the irrigated valleys
of the western mountain states are
likely to be the most favored for the
purpose. There it will be possible to
regulate the supply of water so as to
bring out with certainty the exact
qualities desired and the cultivation
under such conditions can be more
economically carried on. Fortunately,
the states are preparing for the op-
portunity. Montana has appropriate
ed large sum for the construction of
canals and appointed a commission to
actively carry on the work. Idaho,
Utah, Colorado and California are de-
veloping extensive irriga ton projects
by which many millions of acres of
the most productive land under the
sun will be made ready for settlement,
while the Pecos Valley, in southeast
ern New Mexico, has already in sue
cessful operation the largest irriga-
ton system in the United States.
This will afford an outlet for the
surplus population of the east, which
will engage in branch of agriculture
having particularly unlimited de-
mand for its product and the yield of
a character to stand transportation.
