NOTES FOR SHEPHERDS.

Don't think of using grade rams.
Pedigreed animals only can be depend
ed on for satisfactory results.
Keep a trough under cover in the
sheep yard pastures and in it put mix
ture of salt and sulphur. This will
keep off ticks.
The vitality of the flock is sometimes
impaired by breeding immature ewes.
The best plan is not to have the eve
drop her first lamb until about two
years old.
Feeding lambs should always have
plenty of salt within easy reach. A
small quantity of wood ashes mixed
with salt will aid digestion and prevent
worms. The feeding lots should be
kept clean and dry and nothing should
be permitted to brighten or excite the
lambs on feed.
Do not change feed suddenly, espe-
cially from dry feed to pasture. There
is always loss of condition for a few
days following and sudden change.
Keep up the regular feed until the flock
have become accustomed to the grass.

PROFIT IN SHEEP.
1t Exceeds by Far the Income Realized
from Any Other Kind of
Farm Stock

A shepherd can make from 25 per
cent. to so per cent. on his investment
in mutton sheep, according to his skill.
A good breeding eve can produce
enough wool to pay for keeping her.
A eve can be kept in thrifty condition,
being fed such coarse folders as straw,
clover hay and corn fodder, with one
half pound of grain daily when she re-
quires it. at cost of one cent per day,
during the period of most expensive
feeding. To pay for her keep she needs
to produce no more than ten pounds of
good wool, and that mutton eve can
do. In addition to the wool the re-
turns from a eve will be at least one
]amb-the average of the mutton breeds
is nearer one and one-half. From the
fasts derived from our experimental
work it is safe to say that, charging
foods at market prices, mutton can be
put on the market on foot for at least
three cents per pound. Such mutton as
can be furnished at that cost should
weigh $50 pounds. Here is a profit of
$3.50 from sheep underline most mod
crate circumstances. have known
ewes of mutton breeding to produce
each year clear profit of ten to fifteen
dollars.-Farmer's Tribune.

NO LONGER ISOLATED.
"tre-Fence Telephone System Put
in Operation by Progressive
Western Ranchmen.

The stoclmen of Southwestern Kan
sas and northwestern Texas and Okla
homa are keeping pace with modern
improvements and are no longer to be
isolated from thes rest of the world.
A few months ago the ranchmen of
Seward county, Kan, met to propose
plan of connecting their ranches by
telephone facilities, utilizing the barb
wire fences instead of setting poles and
stringing wires. It had been demon
strated that fence wire worked per-
fectly for telephone connection. The
scheme was favored by the stockmen,
and a local company was formed, with
headquarters at Liberal, that being the
nearest telegraph point.
Lines have since been constructed
and are in operation, extending from
Liberal over the whole of Seward, Stew
ems and Morton counties, Kan, and
have reached out into Beaver county,
0. T., and Hansford county, Tex. Many
Of the ranches in this ideal grazing
country are situated miles from rail-
road and telegraph facilities. Some of
the owners are compelled to travel so
miles to reach shipping points. Thus
will he quickly seen the great ad.
vantage to be derived from this enter
prising move. It not only affords them
an opportunity to transact business
among themselves, but they have ar
ranged to get market quotations daily
from the telegraph station. This in
formation is invaluable to the cattle
kings.
In addition to the lines now in opera
ton further extensions are to be made.
The success of the wire-fence tele-
phone first established between Liberal
and Brown ranch on Sharp creek, a dis
lance of ten miles, demonstrated the
value of the irea, and another line will
be started to Beaver, o. T., and one to
1Iardesty, Tex.
These extensions will require but lit
tie outlay of money, nothing but the
labor required where fences can be-
used. When this cannot be done the
surveys follow the streams where the
timber is used for poles. This energetic
move has awakened lively interest at
the markets. Wichita, which has be-
come large stock market in recent
years by reason of it's packing indus
tries, is making an effort to have a
branch of the line reach that place.
This would put the ranchmen in talk
ing distance with commission firms, to
whom they sell stock.
The plan is one of untold advantage
to stock owners, and will be pushed
until the complete benefits have been
derived.

FATTENING STOCK.
Feeding heterogeneous Foods in Con-
nection with Corn Is the Most
Scientific System.

The writer does not believe in con-
filming the diet of fattening animals en-
tirely to corn, except, perhaps, during
the last week or two of life. Corn is
too carbonaceous to employ alone. BY
feeding heterogeneous foods in conncc-
ton with corn we are following a more
reasonable and scientific method, and
are sure of securing increased weight
as we'll as better quality of meat prod
ucts. Glover and alfalfa are the ideal
forage crops for sheep, hogs and cattle,
and young animals in general cannot
have better life than to run upon pas
lures, upon which these leguminous
plants are making thrifty growth; and
the mature stock preparing for the
shambles should also get plenty of
clover or alfalfa (either green or dried
into hay), in connection with their ra-
tons of grain.
; There can be no doubt but that beeves
with reasonable feeds of clover will be
able to digest more corn and do it to
better purpose than if corn alone were
fed them while fattening.
Furthermore, would always use
bran and linseed or cottonseed meal
to mix with the corn meal, that is, when
ever prices would admit of such meth
cd of procedure. That such is better
than the feeding of simple corn or corn
meal does not admit of any doubt, since
the bran not only contains protein;
but also possesses such mechanical
lightness as to separate the particles
of the heavier meal and allow the proc
ess of digestion to proceed more easily,
rapidly and thoroughly. Then the oil
meals are not only good for fattening,
but give variety and promote assimila-
unconditional Rural.
