From my experience in sheep rails
ing 1 have come to the conclusion that
the more access focks have to the
woodlands the better they will thrive.
while the more they are confined in
narrow pastures. where the wild
growths have been externinated, the
more Improbable they become. Years
ago in this section. when larger area
OF the lands was in forests than at the
present time our sheep raisers let their
flocks run in the woods the year round,
and they did much better than they
do of later years.
There is something peculiar to wild
lands that is necessary TO the growth
and to healthy condition of the sheep.
They always seek the higher grounds
for repose Confine them in field
and, If you notice, you will invariably
see them lying on the highest point at
night.
We are led to believe that there is
an instinct that prompts them to do
this. If they be left to range at WILL

We believe in pure stock of all spe-
cies, says The American Cultivator,
but as not every one is prepared to in
vest in such stock we would encourage
the Improvement of common stock by
a systematic grading up by the use of
pure bred males, always keeping to
the same breed for that purpose. There
is more need of this with cattle and
sheep. that seldom do much better than
to double their number each year, of
which not more than one-half are like
ly to be females desirable to breed from
to improve the breed, as there are
likely always to be some not perfect.
With swine one can increase his stock
so rapidly that a single pair of pure
bred animals viii soon give him a
herd, although many think that the
half or three-quarter grades are quite
as vigorous, grow and fatten as well,
and the sows are more prolific than the
pure breeds. Whether this is true or
not we think it would be wise for our
agricultural societies to encourage the
grading up Of common stock by the use
Of pure bred males by liberal premiums
ON such stock, at least when shown in
focks and herds of females, if not as
single individuals. The number shows
that definite system of improvement
has been followed while single in
diyidual may be but a chance result.
Some societies do this now, while 9TH
ers refuse to recognize the grade at
all, no matter how meritorious its per-
formances.

HOW MANY HENS2
Size of Flock That Can BE Probably
Kept In One Pen.


Kept In One Pen.
1t is q matter of Importance to de-
termine how many laying hens may be
profitably kept in a poultry house. 1t
is especially important In those regions
where the climate is such that careful
ly constructed buildings are required
for the proper housing of fowls in win
ter. The opinion is quite generally
held that when kept in yards or allow
ed to roam at will hens do best In
fioclys of about 40 OF so and that when
confined in winter quarters each lay
ing hen requires about ten square feet
Of floor space The size of the flock
which may be profitably kept in pen
Of definite size has been recently re-
ported upon by the Maine station. The
station poultry building contained 10
pens alike in size and arrangement Of
window space and gravel, bone and
water dishes The pens were 10 by 1G
feet, and the entire floor space of 160
square feet was available, since the
walk used by the attendants was ele-
waited above the floor. The tests were
made with four lots of Is pullets each,
four lots of 20, four lots of % and three
lots Of 80. The breeds selected were
Brahma and Barred plymouth Rocks,
there being eight lots of the former and
seven of the latter With each breed
the lots contained from Is to 80 indi-
viduals The experimental conditions
would give the lots containing Ii pull
let's 10.6 square feet of floor space each,
the lots containing 90 pullets s square
feet each, those containing % pullets
Ga square feet and those containing 80
pullets 3.5 square feet Care was taken
to have the individuals in the lots as
uniform rs possible in form, size and
vigor All the pullets were Matched
early in May, with the exception of one
lot of 10 which was Matched about two
weeks earlier. The test began in No
vember and continued six months.
Careful records Of the egg production,
etc, were kept. The results with the
different lots Of the same size were
found to be quite uniform.
A summary of the more important
results shows that the lots containing
20 hens gave a greater total net profit
per lot than did those containing any
greater or less number of hens. Lots
with 25 hens gave slightly greater net
returns than did the Is hen lots. The
lots that had 80 hens each gave very
much less net returns than did any Of
the others. The average net profit per
hen, however steadily decreased as
the number of hens per pen increased
being so cents per hen during six
months with the lots of IL and only
80 cents with the lots of 80.
The tests indicate in general that
the best results will be obtained by
allowing each hen from eight to ten
feet of floor space.

Speaking of two species of worms
which attack wheat stems or cuIms,
weakening them and causing them to
break and fall before the grain is ripe.
Farm. Field and Fircside says:
Both of these insects are subject to
the attacks Of number of parasitic
flies, which, as rule. keep them pret-
ty well in check. The damage from the
wheat straw worms is not often of a
serious nature. but is pretty general
and is probably very commonly over
looked ON account of the concealed
habits of the larvae. and this is espe-
cially true of the wheat straw worm,
the falling of the grain being often
attributed 10 other causes.
The remedy for both of these insects
Is in burning the stubble In the field
