SOME SHEEP SUGGESTIONS.
A Few Hints that May be of Inter-
est to klOckmasters of
the South.

Feed the lambs. Feed them through
the ewes, and then feed them from
well supplied feed trough.
The condition of flock is much
like that of garden. If the weeds
are left to grow it is all weeds.
1t is waste of time and feed TO
breed poor ewes, and to Gull the flock
is indispensable for the profit of it.
The breeding time is near. Ana as
the sheep is at this time, so will be
the condition of the flock in the flu
ture.
Selections of the best is the first
care of the intelligent breeder of u
flock. T] lis is especially so in regard
to the fleece.
GivL the lambs a very little wiip CT
fine clover hay to bite at. They may
soon bn educated in the way they
should go by veJy little training.
All signs point to big feed Of sheep
and lambs this fall, especially in Ne
braslSa, where many of the cattle
feeders are going over to sheep.
We can not think or act too seri-
ously on the subject of how impor-
taDt it is that the shepherd should
study the nature OF wool pnd know

HERE AND THERE.

1t is strange that people who
would not think of growing crop Of
corn or potatoes without cultivation
will let the orchard go without cult
walton for years.
1t is not wise to permit piece
of ground to lie idle because it In
rough. Stock it with sheep, and they
will Mt least pay the interest and
taxes.
The number of Belgian hare fan
ciers in Kentucky is already consid-
cradle and rapidly increasing. 1t has
been suggested that state Belgian
Hare club be organized.
The attempt to doctor sick young
chickens is effort wasted. If the birds
do not grow thriftily in the first three
or four months after Matching, they
will never pay for the raising for any
purpose.
Apples are bringing money in the
Tennessee market. What is more,
they bid fair to continue to do SO.
Just medium apple costs $3.50
barrel, and had to be shipped from
New York at that.
--Gooseberries will not take root
from cuttings, but you may bend
limb down and cover it with dirt, and
it will soon take root. After one sea-
son you can transplant it where you
wish it to stay.
The Danish government has passed
law imposing heavy penalties for
the use of any preservative in butter
other than salt. Tresspassers against
the law are fined or imprisoned, and
all goods not in conformity to the law
are confiscated
Fowls like to bask in the winter
sun and in the dust bin where they
can scratch and enjoy themselves
comfortably. 1t is like new life 20
them, confined as they are to four
blank walls for four or five months

The English sparrow has de-

NUMBER 46.

We may take It as rule THAT the
lamb will pay for the food OF its dam.
and leave the fleece for the profit. Tho
eve always stands for its own value.
One part of corn meal ground as
finely as possible, one part OF bran
ground with the corn, and one part
of cotton seed meal Is an excellent
mixture for lambs.
Nature has no more to do with tho
shepherds business than it has with
the making of cloth from the shceps
fleeces. At least it is so il the wool
grower knows his business.
The Importance of good rams in
every flock is paramount to the full
profit of flock. a we'll cared for ram
may serve fifty ewes and remain in
useful service ten years IL duly cared
for. And it may easily double tho
value of the fleece of its progeny as
compared with that of the common
eve. Figure up the benefit in this
way to flock, and then value your
good ram in due proportion.-Thc
American Sheep Breeder.

Oldest Of Church bell Towers.

Tacoma, Wash. When the first set.

but there was no bell tower, so big

placed in the top of this tree, lad
